Tang Xiaoling was too young to understand the malice in the young woman's words.

But the other seven were all adults, and they couldn't help frowning when they heard what she said.

"Is that really necessary? She's just a child. She hasn't done anything to you."

At that moment, a middle-aged man in his early fifties couldn't hold back and spoke up.

The young woman's face darkened at once. She glanced back at him and said coldly, "Stop acting like some saint. Try surviving first."

Then her voice rose, dripping with sarcasm. "Or do you have some special tastes? Taken a liking to this little girl, have you?"

The middle-aged man flushed crimson at her words. Pointing at her, he shouted angrily:

"Bullshit! I just can't stand what you're doing!"

"Don't think I don't know what you're up to. You want to use this child as a human shield!"

Faced with his accusations, the young woman didn't panic at all. Instead, she replied with brazen arrogance:

"I'll do what I want. What's it to you? Are you my dad?"

Then she turned back to Tang Xiaoling, putting on that fake smile again. "Don't listen to his nonsense. I really do like you."

"Come with me in a little while. I'll protect you."

Tang Xiaoling stared at her with wide, dewy eyes as she listened to the invitation.

Although she was too young to understand how sinister people could be, she still knew good from bad.

From the conversation just now, she had a vague feeling that this woman wasn't a good person!

"N-no, thank you. I want to play by myself..."

Tang Xiaoling took a step back and spoke timidly.

But the woman grabbed her arm and yanked her back.

Still smiling, she said slowly:

"Why don't you understand? This isn't a place to play."

"If you stay here alone, an evil spirit might eat you before you even get through the gate!"

"Listen to me and stay with me."

"Whatever you want to play later, I'll take you there. All right?"

Although she sounded as though she was asking, her tone left no room for refusal.

Poor Tang Xiaoling had no strength to pull free of the woman's grip.

Just then, seeing that the little master was being bullied, Tiantian's pupils narrowed into slits.

Then Tiantian let out a piercing cry!

In an instant, the woman felt a needle-like pain stabbing through her brain.

She immediately released Tang Xiaoling's arm and stumbled backward, clutching her head as she shouted furiously:

"Damn it! What kind of lousy cat is that? Why does it sound so awful?!"

The seven people behind her wore strange expressions at her sudden outburst.

They had heard the cat's cry too, but to their ears, it sounded no different from an ordinary house cat.

What was wrong with this woman? Did she really have to make such a fuss?

All seven glanced at her, then ignored her.

By then, the woman had recovered from the stabbing pain.

Realizing she had just made a fool of herself, she flew into a humiliated rage.

"You little brat! Give me that cat!"

With a vicious expression, the woman strode straight toward Tang Xiaoling.

She looked as though she wanted to strangle Tiantian in the child's arms right then and there.

"No!"

Tang Xiaoling hugged Tiantian tightly and backed away helplessly.

But not one of the seven onlookers stepped forward to help.

Some of them did feel sorry for Tang Xiaoling.

But inside this evil spirit instance, kindness meant nothing.

Even if they helped Tang Xiaoling out of this situation, she would still die once they properly entered the instance.

And whoever intervened would effectively be making an enemy of this woman.

With her personality, she would undoubtedly take revenge behind their back!

So none of them wanted to get involved.

"Have you finished making a scene?"

Just as the woman was about to reach Tang Xiaoling, an incredibly sinister voice suddenly rang out.

Everyone jolted in fright and hurriedly looked toward its source.

Even the woman who had been about to snatch the cat froze in terror, trembling as she turned to look.

An evil spirit had appeared at the amusement park entrance without anyone noticing. Its face was deathly pale, and its body was covered in blood.

Most terrifying of all, only half its head remained!

It looked as though a blade had sliced diagonally through it. The brain inside was clearly visible, still pulsing!

Everyone drew a sharp breath at the sight.

Their hair stood on end, and their scalps prickled!

The evil spirit was quite pleased with their fear.

It even wore an expression of enjoyment as it slowly surveyed them.

But the moment it saw Tang Xiaoling, its expression froze.

The little girl was studying it curiously with those big, watery eyes!

"You... aren't afraid of me?"

"Why would I be afraid of you?" Tang Xiaoling asked innocently.

At the same time, notifications kept sounding in her mind.

[Detected that Tang Xiaoling carries an auspicious blessing. Congratulations on obtaining the special ability: fear immunity!] [All base attributes increased by 100 points each!] [Current attributes: constitution 120, strength 113, speed 114, spirit 123 (average adult attribute value: 50)]

Huh? What were all these things?

Listening to the sounds that kept ringing out, Tang Xiaoling felt confused. She had no idea what they meant.

The only difference she could feel was that Tiantian suddenly seemed much lighter in her arms.

Before, she would get tired after holding the cat for just a little while.

But now, Tiantian seemed to weigh nothing at all, as light as a thin sheet of paper!

"Why..."

The evil spirit's eyes widened as it repeated the word in disbelief.

Did she really have to ask why?

Looking like this, wasn't I terrifying?!

Little girl, I suggest you show some kindness!

At that moment, the evil spirit felt as though its pride had suffered a devastating blow.

It looked so horrifying, yet it couldn't even scare a little kid!

If word got out, how would it ever show its face among the other evil spirits again?

"Heh heh heh... little girl, come take a look. What's inside my head?"

To restore its confidence, the evil spirit let out an eerie laugh, pointed at its pulsing brain, and crouched in front of Tang Xiaoling.

The woman closest to Tang Xiaoling backed away again and again as the evil spirit approached, terrified that she might get caught in the crossfire.

But inwardly, she cursed viciously. You little bastard. You deserve it for asking to die!

The other seven watched with varying expressions.

Some turned their heads away, unable to bear watching.

Others remained expressionless, not the slightest bit moved.

Even the viewers watching the livestream held their breath.

In their hearts, they desperately urged Tang Xiaoling to get away.

But to their surprise, she actually stepped forward to take a look.

After studying it carefully for quite a while, she said with complete seriousness:

"That's a lot of dandruff. Uncle, you need to wash your hair."

Then she stepped back, looking thoroughly disgusted.

By then, the evil spirit's smile had frozen.

Its crimson eyes bulged wide, and it could hardly believe its ears.

Fucking dandruff?!

How had her family raised this kid? Didn't she even know what brains looked like?!

What the actual fuck!!!
