Chapter 1017: Witness

Editor: Atlas Studios

“You’re saying that the pill is the cause of the tumors?” Yu Su knew very well, but she needed the camera to record Kong Yi’s confession.

Kong Yi nodded vigorously. “Before, I wasn’t sure, but I’ve been observing secretly. Take An Ran for example. I’ve never heard of her being cursed before, but ever since she took a pill from us last week, she’s been secretly inquiring about this tumor.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“What about those corpses? Who told you to dig out their hearts?” Yu Su asked.

Kong Yi thought for a moment, then said with a hint of doubt, “I don’t know the specifics, but Kong Chen always manages to get hold of corpses from somewhere. These corpses look like they died recently. I suspect there’s a place on the mountain where they’re keeping these people.”

“Do you know where it is?” Yu Su’s eyes lit up as she asked again.

Kong Yi furrowed his brow again and thought for a while. “I think it’s very likely that it is in Kong Chen’s residence. He has a separate courtyard. If it’s not there, then I don’t know.” Wanting to stay alive, he didn’t dare to delve deeper.

Yu Su continued, “What about those unicorns?”

Kong Yi explained, “Kong Chen said the pills require the flesh and skin of unicorns. After each riot, we would harvest them. Oh, and I have another discovery!”

“What discovery?” Yu Su looked up with a serious expression.

Kong Yi said, “I suspect that Kong Chen is related to the back mountain. He disappears for a day every month during the middle of the month. Last month, someone saw him on the road at the back mountain. Kong Chen denied it, but I think he must have gone there.”

“Alright.” Yu Su looked into his eyes. “I hope what you said is true.”

“Of course it’s true. If I lie, I’ll be struck to death by lightning!” Kong Yi said.

“At the same time, I need you to be a witness. At the critical moment, you have to come out and say all these again,” Yu Su said.

Kong Yi paused for a moment. “Will I be in danger?”

“Don’t worry, we still need you as a witness. We will protect your life,” Yu Su said coldly.

Kong Yi nodded.

After leaving the cemetery, Yu Su immediately headed to the empty courtyard to investigate. However, as soon as she walked near the courtyard, she felt a very strong energy fluctuation. This fluctuation was very familiar.

Yu Su immediately hid herself and hid near the corner of the wall to eliminate the aura on her body. In the next second, she saw a crack appear in the sky on the road in front of the courtyard. This crack was still gradually growing larger. Finally, a familiar figure crawled out of the crack.

Sacred Blood! He was indeed here. After Sacred Blood came out, a figure followed closely behind him. That person’s back view was very familiar. He was wearing a cloak, so his appearance could not be seen clearly, but it could be seen that he was a middle-aged man. The two of them walked into the empty courtyard together.

Just as Yu Su was about to leave, her feet softened. She looked down and saw a very deep crack on the ground. Oh no, she had been discovered by Sacred Blood.

“Little thief, where are you running to?” Sacred Blood’s voice sounded. There was a teasing tone in his voice. He waved his palm across the air.

Yu Su forcefully received the hit and spat out a mouthful of blood. In order not to alert the enemy, she immediately slapped the Invisibility Talisman on her body and randomly teleported herself to a courtyard on Mount Zhongnan.

“Whoosh!” She instantly disappeared from the corner of the street.

“Eh? Why is she gone?” The Sacred Blood looked in a certain direction in confusion, but he didn’t think too much about it. He smiled and walked into the courtyard.

During the process of being teleported, Yu Su felt a sharp pain in her chest. She felt that all the meridians in her body were about to break, and there was still a demonic energy entangled in her body, as if it was about to enter her meridians.

Yu Su pressed a few acupoints on her body before she closed her eyes and allowed herself to be sent to a corner by the teleportation array before falling asleep.

After an unknown period of time, Yu Su opened her eyes and saw Ye Tang’s face in front of her. Ye Tang’s face was very dirty, but she immediately recognized those eyes.

“Ye Tang,” Yu Su called out softly.

Ye Tang hurriedly covered her mouth and whispered to her, “Yu Su, why are you here too? Lower your voice. Those people outside are very strange.”

Ye Tang saw the blood on Yu Su’s body and knew that she was injured.

Yu Su glanced at her surroundings. It was a small room with no wind on all sides. There was a very small window on the left, and the room smelled bad.

Ye Tang’s body was very dirty, as if she had rolled in the mud. Yu Su frowned and waved her hand to cast a cleansing spell on Ye Tang. She knew that Ye Tang loved cleanliness the most.

Ye Tang’s eyes lit up. “Yu Su, where are we now? I think I’ve been kidnapped. I woke up in this room.”
