No, she was even worse than a witch, at least witches in the stories that he read will not harm innocent people as she did!

Su Qingzhao was scared out of his mind, just now he felt like he was going to be smashed into a patty. It was a good thing that he was able to run away with his life, he did not dare to ask for anything anymore. He glanced at the direction in which Huo Lan ran away for the last time before he started to chase after the rest of the group without paying any attention to Huo Lan anymore.

The thing which was chasing after them from behind stabilised soon enough and the second his footing was firmly pressed on the ground, it glared at them unwillingly as hatred filled the eyes of the many heads which were poking out of the rotten flesh while the large boulder-like head on top of it with a large snout clattered its teeth so loudly that the entire sky seemed to be shaking as the thing chuckled and growled, " Wish..make a wish .. and become my meal.. I will fulfil everything that you need but first pay three lives.." the strange voice was enchanting even though it was scratching and nerve winding, they could feel their feet swaying.

Especially, Yang Yiling whose eyes turned dazed and glossy as she turned to look at the thing. Did it say that she will be able to save the life of her son if she was to give it three lives?

" Yang Yiling!" Rong Si who was running in front of them shouted loudly but Yang Yiling did not seem to be listening at all, seeing this Rong Si cursed and turned around and then slapped Yang Yiling in the face causing Yang Yiling to snap back as she turned around and looked at Rong Si who was standing in front of her and heard her speak,

" Don't do it, if you listen to that thing then you will become a murderer. Will you be able to live with yourself? Will you be able to look at your son in the eye? And there is no way that thing is going to fulfil your wish .. it is lying ..." Rong Si had rushed inside the temple only to find this thing inside that place.

The so-called temple was nothing but a sacrificial ground of a small village with a hollow structure inside. There were a bunch of images carved on the walls of the temple and even if she was an idiot, she could see that this thing was a manifestation of some sort of evil being. It did fulfil wishes but one had to sacrifice at least three lives to it only then will it fulfil that wish but there was another hitch, those who were sacrificed would neither die nor stay alive.

They will become a part of that thing and suffer for all eternity until that thing was dead.

Rong Si looked at the many faces which were sticking out of the body of that ghost thing and then said, " Those humans are all alive and their life force is getting sucked from their bodies very slowly. If you want to give such death to someone you can go ahead and do it."

Yang Yiling was stunned when she turned to look at the heads of children and the elderly who were muttering and shivering. Th..Those things were still alive?

She almost gagged before turning around and continued running together with Rong Si and the rest. I think you should take a look at

None of them were willing to stop, but the island was only this big. Every turn they took, every twist they ended up in—— they will end up getting attacked by an enlarged wendigo which tried to take their life and eat them, fortunately, the talismans saved them but it was only a matter of time before the talismans stopped working as well.

As they were running, they came to a stop in front of a bridge that looked old and was swaying over a big chasm under which the ocean water was flowing. N0v3lTr0ve served as the original host for this chapter's release on N0v3l-B1n.

Su Qingzhao turned to look at his group and asked them to cross the bridge in a hurry but couldn't force them when he saw Master Wang panting for air like a dog who was dying. With his hands on his knees, Master Wang waved his hands and then said, " You all run.. I .. I don't think I can run anymore."

At the thought of his sister-in-law and nephew who was dying, Master Wang's eyes turned red in pain and agony but he truly couldn't run anymore.

Su Qingzhao could not leave Master Wang alone, the old man was not only kind but he also saved them a few times just now almost using one of his talismans completely. He turned to look at the chasm which was deep with violent waves falling and crashing against the wall on either side of the cliff. While he was staring at the chasm, he suddenly felt his feet move as a voice shouted at him from behind, " Su Qingzhao, Zou Shen, Qin Lu jump!"

Fortunately, Su Qian was standing right next to him and stopped him. The same could be said for the other two who were stopped by Yang Yiling, Rong Si and Master Wang.

The three of them did not jump but Su Qingzhao ended up dropping the leather belt watch that he was wearing as it had already loosened on his wrist. No sooner did the watch fall inside the water, they all saw a bunch of the skeleton-looking ghost things swim over the surface as they tugged and tore the entire thing completely.

Their group looked at the ghost things and shuddered with terror, if they had jumped down right now then even their bones would not have been found!

Scared, Su Qingzhao turned around and grabbed his aunt's arm and hugged her tightly. He was worried that his body will not listen to him once again and he will jump down the chasm, while hugging his aunt, he looked at Huo Lan who was looking at him with hatred in her eyes.

" Just what in the world you want!"
