On the plaza, as Shu Lichuo's expression grew increasingly grim, the atmosphere around them turned downright eerie. Lu Chuan and Ba Longxiang in particular had already locked their gazes firmly onto Bai Yu.
In Ba Longxiang's eyes, Shu Lichuo had always been excessively tolerant toward those around her, but what she hated most was deception!
Even Bai Yu's former identity had been false, which was no different from trampling upon Shu Lichuo's bottom line. And now he still dared to wag his tongue—did he really think that, as a Great Apothecary, he could go anywhere without anyone daring to offend him?
Even Lu Chuan had not expected things to turn out this way. After all, when Shu Lichuo had discussed her plan to subdue Bai Yu with him earlier, it had all been aimed at the Esoteric Sect. That was also why Shu Lichuo had been so tolerant of Bai Yu.
But now, Bai Yu's identity had abruptly changed, and the power backing him had shifted directly from the Esoteric Sect to the Holy Heaven Cult.
Compared to that pack of lunatics from the Esoteric Sect, the Holy Heaven Cult could sometimes be reasoned with. But if one truly touched something that belonged to them, the foundation and ruthlessness of those demonic cultivators might be even fiercer than the Esoteric Sect's.
At this moment, faced with Shu Lichuo's questioning, Bai Yu only found it troublesome. This woman was not easy to deal with, and now was not the time to fall out with her.
With that thought, Bai Yu silently communicated with the Divine Baleful Gu, madly pouring fate into it.
Amid the strange atmosphere, Shu Lichuo lifted her beautiful eyes toward Bai Yu, her tone icy.
