After throwing all the colored rings, Wu Qian instantly came to her senses.

But before she could fully recover, she heard the Evil Spirit demanding ten thousand Spirit Coins.

Still unsure what was happening, she stared blankly around her.

Colored rings lay scattered all over the ground, though she had no idea when they had gotten there.

"What... happened?" Wu Qian asked in confusion.

The moment she spoke, however, the Evil Spirit stallholder let out a shrill cry:

"Bitch! Trying to weasel out of paying?!"

The sudden, piercing voice sent a shudder through Wu Qian.

Horror spread across her face, and she instinctively backed away.

But a moment later, she seemed to remember something and hurriedly stopped herself.

At last, she realized what was happening and snapped angrily:

"What do you mean, ten thousand Spirit Coins?! What the hell does that have to do with me?!"

"You clearly used an illusion on me and forced me to throw those rings!"

"Let me tell you! Never mind that I don't have ten thousand Spirit Coins-even if I did, I wouldn't give them to you!"

She paused, then shot the Evil Spirit stallholder a contemptuous look. "I'm leaving now. Let's see what you can do about it!"

She even raised Tiantian in a show of defiance before turning to leave.

After seeing Wu Qian act so arrogantly and getting a faceful of abuse from her, the stallholder was furious.

The Evil Spirit stallholder's rage had gone completely off the charts!

Since becoming an Evil Spirit, it had never encountered such an insolent human.

Now, nothing else mattered to it.

Even without Sky Dog and Tang Xiaoling, it would absolutely torture this bitch to death!

It swore her death would be utterly brutal!

"Bitch, where do you think you're going?!"

With a roar, the Evil Spirit stallholder reached out and grabbed the head of Wu Qian's mascot costume.

Then it yanked hard, dragging her to the ground.

At the same time, murderous energy surged from its body, and black vapor billowed upward!

Though it was not as dense as Old Lady Zhao's, it still formed a black cloud overhead!

Lying on the ground, Wu Qian felt the bone-piercing chill and could not stop shivering.

Combined with the Evil Spirit stallholder's hideous appearance, it sent an overwhelming terror erupting uncontrollably from the depths of her heart!

Even so, she clutched Tiantian tightly in her arms and screamed:

"Let go of me! Let go right now!"

"Otherwise, you'll regret it!"

Regret it?

Those words made the Evil Spirit stallholder laugh in fury.

I'm a powerful Evil Spirit, and I'm supposed to regret killing a bitch like you?

"Fine! I'd love to see how you're going to make me regret it!"

Its voice sinister, the Evil Spirit stallholder raised both hands to grab Wu Qian.

Unexpectedly, Wu Qian suddenly lifted Tiantian from her arms and held the cat in front of herself!

Panic immediately flashed across the stallholder's face, and the claws about to strike Tiantian froze rigidly in midair!

This divine cat really works!

Seeing the claws remain suspended, Wu Qian felt a surge of wild delight.

Had she not needed Tiantian to keep shielding her from the Evil Spirit, she would have smothered the cat in kisses right then!

But the Evil Spirit stallholder was already cursing inwardly.

This damned rat actually dares to use Lord Sky Dog as a shield!

Isn't she afraid of angering Lord Sky Dog?

What if Lord Sky Dog casts her soul into the endless inferno in a fit of rage?!

Just then, Tiantian's voice suddenly sounded in its mind:

"Hurry up and do it. I already miss my little master's arms."

Huh?!

The Evil Spirit stallholder froze briefly, then immediately realized that Lord Sky Dog was urging it on.

In an instant, its confidence returned!

Bitch, let's see you survive this!

After that inward roar, the Evil Spirit stallholder immediately reached around Tiantian and lunged straight for Wu Qian's chest.

But because she was wearing a thick mascot costume, its grab failed to reach her body!

Even so, the sudden movement had already frightened Wu Qian so badly that her face turned white and her lips purple.

She stared at Tiantian, still held high in her hands, horrified.

How is this possible?!

I clearly saw the Evil Spirit kneel before this yellow cat.

Why isn't it working now?!

Could Tang Xiaoling's protective treasure have nothing to do with this lousy cat?

Did her father deliberately lie in front of everyone about the cat protecting its master to cover up the truth?

With that thought, Wu Qian suddenly understood.

Tang Xiaoling's father must have been afraid the other players would steal his daughter's protective treasure.

That's why he made up a lie to fool us!

Fuck!

I actually fell for that father and daughter's trick!

Those bastards!

They're both rotten bastards! Rotten to the core!

They actually told a lie like that just to screw us over!

I shouldn't be the one dying! It should be that little bastard and her father!

Wu Qian inwardly cursed the father and daughter like mad.

Meanwhile, she kept struggling and resisting, trying to escape the Evil Spirit's clutches.

But how could a mere mortal like her possibly be a match for an Evil Spirit?

Watching Wu Qian struggle desperately, the Evil Spirit stallholder gave an excited smile and said in a chilling voice:

"Scared now? Didn't you just say you'd make me regret it?!"

"Come on! Show me how you're going to do it!"

As it spoke, it grabbed hard with both hands and wrenched them back.

The thick mascot costume was instantly torn to pieces, sending cotton flying everywhere!

Wu Qian cried out in fright, cold sweat streaming down her forehead.

With the Evil Spirit about to kill her, she could no longer worry about anything else.

She hurled Tiantian straight at the Evil Spirit with all her strength!

Seeing Lord Sky Dog flying toward it, the Evil Spirit stallholder immediately stopped tearing at her and froze in place.

But unexpectedly, Tiantian nimbly flipped through the air.

Then all four paws lightly touched the Evil Spirit's face, pushing off toward an empty patch of ground nearby.

Tiantian landed steadily and ran toward Tang Xiaoling.

Before leaving, Tiantian did not forget to remind the Evil Spirit stallholder:

"Keep going!"

Seeing Tiantian return safely, Tang Xiaoling hurriedly crouched down and gathered the cat tightly into her arms.

Tiantian meowed affectionately, rubbing a little furry face against Tang Xiaoling's cheek.

"Haha, Tiantian, that tickles!"

Tang Xiaoling let out a peal of silvery laughter, then looked at Tiantian apologetically and said:

"I'm sorry, Tiantian. I'll never let you leave me again!"

With that, her little hands tightened further, hugging Tiantian firmly against her chest.

It was as though she feared she would lose Tiantian the moment she loosened her grip.

But Tang Xiaoling did not know that she now possessed twice the strength of an adult!

If the cat in her arms had not been Sky Dog, an ancient auspicious beast, the force of her hug would already have strangled an ordinary kitten!

Meanwhile.

The Evil Spirit stallholder breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Lord Sky Dog was safe.

Only after hearing "Keep going" did it turn its gaze back to Wu Qian.

Seeing the terror on her face and the way her entire body trembled uncontrollably, it savored the sight.

It extended its scarlet tongue and said with a cold smile:

"Don't be afraid. I'll take my time torturing you to death!"
