"Speaking of which, those two goddamn fools... Qiangzi and Huzi told people I was your disciple, so I got called over to help. I don't know anything; I was just filling a gap. As soon as I arrived, a monster's hand grabbed Huzi, and Qiangzi and I tried to save him by holding onto him... but in the end... still..."

Chen Ahmao's voice grew softer and hoarser as he spoke.

I said to Chen Ahmao, "I don't plan on dealing with this matter. The monster in the mud is unfathomable. If you want to meddle, you can stay behind alone."

Right now, I'm about to give birth, and my connection with that monster in the lake is so delicate.

I don't want to complicate matters further, and I'm even more afraid that Dumpling will be affected.

I made a selfish decision at the bottom of my heart.

"Master, it killed my two brothers, just like that..." Chen Ahmao was full of reluctance yet suddenly seemed to understand something, "Alright, I'll go with you."

"You really want to leave, huh? Granny Wu and I were desperate just now. If you hadn't set fire to that creature's hand, Granny Wu and I would've been goners." Wu Zhenglin obviously didn't want me to go. He and Granny Wu had come for exorcism, out of a sense of social responsibility.

If the monster wasn't dealt with, how could they easily leave?

Granny Wu gave her grandson a stern look, "Do you really want to be so spineless as to have a pregnant woman protect you? Being able to save us and snatch back our lives just now was already fate."

"Granny Wu, I've been trying to reach your grandson's phone and couldn't get through. I thought something had happened to you all, and I was very anxious. It's good to see that you're both safe." Deep down, I was actually quite puzzled by the Corpse Rice representing the monster full of Corpse Qi in the lake.

What did the black hairs on that Corpse Rice signify?

At that moment, my keen hearing picked up on the conversation between Su Qiang and Su Xiaomin. The two seemed to be plotting something.

Su Qiang asked Su Xiaomin, "Have you figured out who that ugly woman is? Not only does she have two unfathomable Household Spirits guarding her, but one of them is Yu Longting's younger brother. Even the Wu Family ancestors and grandchildren are eager to show her goodwill."

"I went to the guard to inquire. Those two are tight-lipped and wouldn't say much, but I heard they're important," Su Xiaomin sneered coldly, "I don't know how the man who impregnated her stomach could stoop so low. Someone actually wanted that freak."

Su Qiang pondered over Su Xiaomin's words and spoke faintly, "Judging by the month of her belly, it seems similar to Su Wan's. Su Wan seems to have a pretty good relationship with the Wu Family and Yun Hao."

"Su Wan is taller and much prettier than her, just of lower status." The way Su Xiaomin spoke of my past appearance was full of a disturbing heat, and he was disdainful when mentioning my status, "How could the two of them possibly be connected?"

"If she is Su Wan, that would be even better!! Let her taste what it's like to be betrayed by her beloved, to lose a child like I did, to feel the agony of heartbreak! I really can't wait... to see..."

Su Qiang chuckled lightly, her laugh filled with malice and satisfaction, as if she was already reveling in the pleasure of taking revenge on me and Yu Longting, driving us into the abyss.

She walked up to a marble flag-raising platform by the lake, heightening her own stance, and suddenly spoke out loud to the Mysterious Art masters around, "Fellow colleagues of the Mystic Sect, do you know why the monster in the lake is so powerful? Because... that is the Snake Lord's... and my... shameless sister's... bastard spawn."
