Chapter 203: Chapter 203: Let’s Avenge This Together_1

Slowly lowering your head, you widened your eyes and looked at Yang Kai with a resolute gaze, saying word by word, "We will take revenge together!"

With that, you turned around, took out your phone from your pocket, and dialed a number you knew by heart but rarely touched.

The call was answered quickly, and a pleasant voice came through, "Are you looking for Zhao’er? She’s with Xi Yu, not with me."

Wu Qiyi’s voice sounded very calm, but within that calmness, there was an emotional undertone that inevitably caused your heart to tremble when you heard it.

"No, I am here to find you."

Wu Qiyi was stunned. She was sitting on the sofa, dressed in a ladylike pajama, holding a thick ancient tome. When she heard your words, her hand trembled slightly, and the hefty tome almost slipped from her grasp.

"Sister Xiaoyou, what’s the matter?"

Lin Panxia, dressed in an ice cream-colored, soft-textured outfit, turned her head to look at Wu Qiyi, her bright eyes filled with confusion.

"It’s, it’s nothing."

For a moment, Wu Qiyi was slightly distracted. She tried to steady herself and picked up the ancient tome, not realizing that she was holding it upside down.

"Is there something you need?"

"Well, I need to ask you for a favor."

"Okay."

Without even knowing what you were going to request, Wu Qiyi agreed without thinking.

"I need some materials..." you listed nine precious items that simply couldn’t be found on the market, and then added, "I need two sets of each."

"Hmm, okay, when do you need them?"

You thought for a moment, then said, "Within four hours."

"I’ll have someone deliver them to No. 72, Baojia Street in two hours."

"Alright."

"If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first."

Only at this moment did you notice something unusual in Wu Qiyi’s voice, which sounded a bit nasal. You couldn’t help but speak up, "It’s gotten cold, you should take care to keep warm."

"Hmph, stinky Brother, Sister Xiaoyou has already caught a cold, what’s the use of saying this now! If you really care about Sister Xiaoyou, you should come over yourself and cook a big meal for me, oh no, for us!"

Lin Panxia had been eavesdropping on your conversation the whole time, and seeing that you made no remark, she immediately voiced her dissatisfaction loudly.

"In that case, I’ll cook dinner for you tonight."

"Yay, yay, we’re having a feast tonight!"

Watching Lin Panxia hopping around excitedly, Wu Qiyi smiled gently, "I know you’re busy now, if you can’t make it, don’t force yourself."

"It’s okay, it’s the least I can do." You thought for a bit and then said, "I remember that you cough easily when you catch a cold, so don’t take any cough or cold medicine. For a cold this season, it’s the same with or without medication. Just keep warm, drink plenty of water during the day. Tonight, I’ll bring some winter tangerines for you. After roasting them on the fire, their flesh is very effective in treating coughs."

"Hmm, okay."

Wu Qiyi hung up the phone, gently opened the ancient tome, and looked at the pages with the same calm expression as before,

However, a few seconds later, Lin Panxia came over, and with a secret smile, she said, "Sister Xiaoyou, you’re holding the book upside down."

Wu Qiyi "suddenly" stood up, her stunning face immediately flushed with redness, a departure from her usual composure, "I, I’m a bit tired, I’m going upstairs to rest for a while, Xiaxia, you play by yourself."

With that, Wu Qiyi fled upstairs.

"Hee hee, I really didn’t expect Sister Xiaoyou to blush, how rare," Lin Panxia said as she plopped down on the couch with a toy bear and continued munching on her fries, returning to her horror movie, "Huh? ’I Have a Date with a Thousand-year-old Female Corpse,’ a new movie, let me see...’’

After Wu Qiyi hung up the phone, you turned to look at Zong Wangyue, who was standing by, and gestured for him to come over.

After seeing the call was meant for him, Zong Wangyue jogged over, asking you, "Boss, what do you need?"

You pulled him by the shoulder and whispered something into his ear.

"Ah? No way?"

Zong Wangyue looked at you with a face full of surprise.

You said a few more words in a low voice, and Zong Wangyue nodded, then slapped his chest and said with a smile, "Don’t worry, Boss, leave this matter to me!"

Then, Zong Wangyue turned and ran toward the hospital’s main entrance.

"What did you send Zongzi to do?"

Xiao Feng and the others gathered around at this time.

You looked at the people in front of you and said calmly, "We will discuss this matter when we get back, for now, let’s go with Little Kai to take care of Nie Ying’s paperwork."

With Xian Qianling’s assistance, Nie Ying’s body was quickly placed in a black plastic bag and lifted onto the van belonging to the supernatural detective society.

Before leaving, Xian Qianling reminded you, "Don’t forget what I told you just now."

"Rest assured, I understand," you replied.

With that, you showed Xian Qianling your cell phone and then turned to board the van.

As the van drove away, Xian Qianling received a text message. After reading it for a moment, she looked up at the departing van, then turned and got into her car, speeding toward the criminal police department.

It was past three o’clock in the afternoon, at No. 72, Baojia Street.

By this time, the furniture in the villa’s hall had been moved aside, clearing out a space of about eighty square meters.

In the center of the space stood a bathtub-like wooden rectangular tub filled with hot water that held many strange items and various types of flower petals. As the steam rose, a peculiar scent spread throughout the room.

Around the tub, eight different magic seals were attached in two layers, corresponding to the eight directions. Anyone familiar with talisman formations would be shocked, for it was the Authentic Taoist, Innate Bagua Formation!

At this moment, Yang Kai and Zong Wangyue carried a person down from upstairs and gently placed them into the tub.

This person, with long black hair, seemed to be Yang Kai’s first love, Nie Ying.

Nie Ying had been soaking in the tub for about ten minutes when, in a villa across from No. 72, Baojia Street, a criminal detective peering through a telescope turned to a man sitting on the couch next to him and whispered, "Captain, there she is, Li Muyun just showed up!"

Hu Zhiyuan leapt up from his chair at that and said to another detective, "Quick, set up the camera!"

Another detective quickly set up a high-powered video camera at the window.

Through the camera, Hu Zhiyuan saw that several members of the supernatural detective society had gathered around Nie Ying’s body.

"Taoist Priest, what are they doing?"

Hu Zhiyuan turned to look at a middle-aged Taoist sitting leisurely on the couch, sipping tea—the very person depicted in the portrait painted by Sun Mingyu!
