Pei Yao immediately poured a cup of hot water for Beitang Lie and even used a spoon to feed him.

“Be careful, it’s a little hot,” she said gently as she brought the spoon to his mouth.

Beitang Lie drank the hot water from Pei Yao’s cup.

At this moment, he looked at the gentle Pei Yao and felt that the plain water was sweeter than honey.

So happiness could be so simple.

Beitang Lie thought to himself.

Chi Jiao looked at them. She increasingly felt that something was going on between the two of them.

Just as Beitang Lie was immersed in his sweet fantasy, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded in the direction of the room.

A boorish male voice rang out.

“Surround this courtyard! We can’t let them escape!”

The loud male voice was like a clap of thunder, startling Pei Yao so much that her small hands trembled. She ended up poking Beitang Lie’s lips with the metal spoon.

Beitang Lie grunted in pain. The taste of blood filled his mouth.

“Ah! I’m sorry!” Pei Yao hurriedly apologized when she saw that she had hurt his lips.

She really didn’t do it on purpose.

“It’s alright, it’s alright,” Beitang Lie said hurriedly. Two streams of bitter tears flowed down his face.

How could he be so unlucky?

“Looks like we’ve been exposed,” Chi Jiao said as she stood up from the small stool, holding the fierce little axe.

Pei Yao also stood up from the brick bed. She bent over and took out a short dagger from her boot, then hid it in the sleeve of her jacket.

The door was kicked open from the outside.

The witch doctor walked in first.

The village chief and Ah Ping followed behind.

“Where did you guys go while up in the mountains yesterday?” Ah Ping narrowed his swollen eyes and glared fiercely at Chi Jiao and Pei Yao.

The entrance was crowded with villagers, both men and women. All of them were staring coldly at the trio, weapons in their hands.

Chi Jiao never hoped that they could keep their visit to the temple a secret from the villagers. She had already prepared for the worst.

But no matter what, she had to bring that stone back to 117.

There was a strange magnetic field around that stone. She had to bring it back for research.

She had a feeling that this mysterious stone was even more terrifying than the Soul Stone.

Beitang Lie watched as so many people crowded around the small room. He was so anxious that he wanted to sit up on the bed. His head ached for some reason. Soon after, his body fell heavily back onto the bed.

Whatever happened next, he had no idea. He was in so much pain that his eyes dilated to the maximum.

Before Chi Jiao and Pei Yao could say anything, the witch doctor stepped forward. He sneered. “The temple is a restricted area. Outsiders are not allowed to enter. You guys went to the temple yesterday, right?”

“So what if we did?” Chi Jiao admitted calmly.

Now that they had reached this juncture, there was no point in denying it.

Pei Yao didn’t expect Chi Jiao to admit things so frankly.

However, she knew that Chi Jiao was smart. Since she chose to admit things, she must have her own plan.

Therefore, Pei Yao didn’t say anything else. Instead, she made ready to fight these unruly villagers.

“You trespassed into the temple and stole our Deity Stone. I advise you to hand it over now and leave our village immediately. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being ruthless,” the witch doctor said sternly..
