Logically speaking, with the abundance of spiritual aura in Exorcist City, this should not be happening.

Unless...

These auras are not really spiritual auras?!

Due to Helian Wei Wei’s previous job, she had extraordinary intuition when it came to observing minute details.

Her intuition was telling her that something was wrong in Exorcist City, and the root of these problems was these spiritual auras.

“Whitey.” Helian Wei Wei had not summoned Whitey and Blackie for a while to conserve her physical energy. Since something had happened, she had to take precautions.

Whitey looked the same, except for its eyes, which had changed significantly from its initial state. Now, they were purely amber, clear and cold, as he said, “I’m here.”

“The contest is about to start tomorrow. It’ll probably take more than a day to the mausoleum’s entrance. Please stay in the Fantasy Space to prevent that the strawberries from dying, from the withering spiritual aura in the Fantasy Space.” Helian Wei Wei was used to strategizing in the army. She did not know how long these strawberries could sustain her, but she had to at least protect those that were alive. Whitey was a mythological beast, so its aura would help the strawberries.

“Okay.” Whitey nodded and said, “However, lady, this incident is not simple. For someone to be able to manipulate the spiritual aura in Exorcist City without being noticed, this person must be crafty and have powerful nature-defying magic. You have to be extra careful in the contest tomorrow.”

“I understand.” Helian Wei Wei was also aware that this situation was different. Other than her physical condition, there was still one thing that worried her. These spiritual auras that permeated the air, what was their purpose?

There was a lot on Helian Wei Wei’s mind. Naturally, she was a little absent-minded as she had her meal.

Other than her and Baili Jia Jue, Madam Zhuge and her son were at the dining table too.

However, this did not stop His Highness from feeding Helian Wei Wei. Unlike the others, he hardly took a few bites. Instead, he had loaded a pile of food on Helian Wei Wei’s small plate.

Madam Zhuge was observant and smart. She took a few glances at Baili Jia Jue and laughingly said, “You know how to pamper a girl.”

Hearing this, Helian Wei Wei did not shy away either. She looked up from her plate and smiled at Madam Zhuge.

Baili Jia Jue saw that her face red was red from eating and her hair was all curled up, he could not help but ruffled her hair.

His pet was indeed pleasing to the eyes.

Helian Wei Wei raised her brows. What’s the matter?

Baili Jia Jue calmly gave her some bamboo sprouts.

Helian Wei Wei merely lowered her head continued eating.

Madam Zhuge remembered that they were going into the mausoleum with her son. She could not help but remind her again, “Xiao Wei, there’s no spiritual aura on you, so you’re the weakest. Just stick close to Little Yun. When danger comes, let them go first, okay?”

In Madam Zhuge’s eyes, Helian Wei Wei was probably just a child, and not much older than Zhuge Yun.

Furthermore, since she had found out that Helian Wei We was a lady, she would inevitably look at her gently.

Hearing Madam Zhuge’s advice, Helian Wei Wei coughed twice gently before saying with a chuckle, “Madam, don’t worry, I know what to do.”

In fact, she was the only one who knew the extent of her ability...

Unlike Madam Zhuge’s worries, the Ni family was sure that the Zhuge family could not send a team for the contest. Ni Hu was waiting to have a good laugh at Zhuge Yun the next morning.

After all, making a person like Zhuge Yun abandon the contest was more rewarding than beating him up.

Very soon, the next day arrived. Countless exorcists gathered in Exorcist City, each one of them was full of hidden talents.

Each exorcist had found a team to compete with, with the Ni family team having the most exorcists.

The rules of the contest required a team to have a minimum of three people, but there was no upper limit to a team’s size.

Therefore, three-quarters of the exorcists present had chosen to follow Ni Hu.

As for the Zhuge family, only Zhuge Yun was present. In contrast to the Ni family team, his side looked extremely empty.

Ni Hu, who was at the center of everyone’s attention, laughed so arrogantly that his chin almost dropped. He walked up to Zhuge Yun and spoke disdainfully, “Some people will never grow a brain unless he is beaten. Some may believe that they are somebody, but actually, they are worse than a dog. At least, a dog would get chosen.”

“You!” Zhuge Yun clenched his fists and clenched his teeth tightly.

Ni Hu pretended to be sorry, saying “Brother Yun, I wasn’t talking about you, please don’t make blatant assumptions. Speaking of that, why are you are here alone? Hey! We are brothers. If no one chooses to join you, I can send two or three exorcists to you, At least, I can help you form a team and save you from giving up on the contest, right?” As he said this, his eyes turned cold. He quietly sneered, “Of course, I can’t give you my people for nothing. You will have to kneel down, kowtow to me, and make an apology. After all, none of my people want to join the Zhuge family’s team.”

“Hehehe, Master Ni, are you serious about it? Brother Yun still wants to fulfill his father’s dying wish. He has the will but not the ability, and could not find any teammates. I’m afraid that he might just kneel to you so he can qualify.” The person who said this was Young Master Xiao Lingyu from another faction. Compared to Ni Hu, he was not too violent, but he loved to belittle the weak and butter up the strong. When he spoke, his tone was weirdly condescending.

Zhuge Yun was originally the most outstanding exorcist among them. Even in terms of exorcism magic, he was far better than them. However, his father’s death was his misfortune. No matter how talented he was, he would be bullied if he did not know how to act according to the situation.

Zhuge Yun was an embarrassment, even though he was the heir of his faction.

Zhuge Yun’s eyes were red with anger, but he knew that he could not do anything as his team was not there yet. If he took action right now, they might really be disqualified.

“The game will start shortly. Brother Yun, you should consider carefully and let me know. This offer is valid at any time.” As he finished his sentence, Ni Hu and the people around him started laughing, the mockery in their laughter was clearly evident.

As he turned to leave, a cold voice cut through the air. It was full of indifference and the speaker obviously did not take him seriously, saying, “You may retract your offer. We don’t need to consider anything, we have enough as a team.”

Ni Hu looked at the source of the voice and his smile instantly vanished

There were two people standing behind Zhuge Yun.

He would not forget those two faces even if he was on his deathbed. He had them to thank for the injuries on his face, and they were still hurting now. Most importantly, he had never been bullied like this before, being beaten in front of everyone.

I have to get my revenge for this!
