Plotting Against Human Nature

"Someone's collapsed!"

"What happened? What happened?"

Batu suddenly toppled over, startling the pedestrians on the road. Some kept far away to protect themselves, some kindhearted people came over to inspect him and render aid, while others gathered around to watch the spectacle.

"He's dead!" one of the kindhearted bystanders exclaimed as he crouched down to help.

They had never imagined such a thing could happen. How could a perfectly fine person suddenly drop dead?

"Sorcery!"

"Shamanic sorcery!"

"The Grasslands people are attacking again!"

"Shamanic sorcery?" Meng Qi and Jiang Zhiwei
