Chapter 158 Competition for wealthy families

Everyone was frightened and took a step back.

I saw the ghost face sticking out its huge tongue and looking greedy at everyone.

"eat……"

The tongue is as flexible as a snake and can be extended.

Mo Tingye stretched out his hand to block Ruan Xia behind him.

"This thing looks like it's trying to eat people."

I don't know if he was shocked by the imperial aura in Mo Tingye.

After the grimace approached Mo Tingye, he actually showed a little fear.

Then he turned his tongue quickly.

"Young Master Gu! Be careful!"

He chuckled with a grimace, and flew towards Gu Jincheng with his snake-like flexible tongue.

"Hey, eat..."

Ruan Xia immediately took out a peach wood sword from Najie.

The moment his tongue touched Gu Jincheng's hand, he raised the knife and dropped it.

Just hearing a scream of "Ouch——", the grimace immediately retracted its half-broken tongue.

The grimace showed a very painful expression and made a sound of property.

He closed his mouth tightly, not daring to open it even a little further.

Ruan Xia neatly put his sword behind him and looked at another grimace.

"Come on, his tongue is broken but you still have it, let me fix it for you."

The other grimace immediately closed his eyes tightly, not daring to look at Ruan Xia.

The whole process was too fast, and by the time the Gu family reacted, it was all over.

"This...is being dealt with by Master Ruan?"

Mrs. Gu looked at the severed tongue on the ground in disbelief.

"Thank you, Master Ruan, for saving my life."

Gu Jincheng bowed very politely.

The momentum of the two grimaces was gone, and Mr. Gu was able to control his body again.

Mrs. Gu burst into tears.

"Master Ruan, I was blind before and couldn't see Mount Tai!"

"Those dead liars before, let alone fighting ghosts, there are only a handful of people who can escape from this tongue. This thing really eats people!"

Gu Jincheng stepped forward and looked at the tongue on the ground.

"The last person who escaped had his arm bitten off. This thing used fire, electric shock, and chanted sutras and chants, but it was useless. Since Master Ruan, these two things have not dared to be arrogant."

Ruan Xia thought to herself, they are not stupid, they know that they are no match.

So I don’t dare to make mistakes.

Mrs. Gu hurried forward to check on her husband, but still kept a foot's distance and did not dare to get too close.

"Master, are you okay? Does your head still hurt?"

Mr. Gu frowned, as if he had just endured great pain.

Ruan Xia thought to herself, maybe their pain was shared.

I was just focused on saving people and forgot about this.

Just when she was about to remind him, she saw Mr. Gu kneeling on the ground.

"Master Ruan, ever since these two faces appeared, they have been screaming to eat people, howling day and night."

"Of course I refused, but for some reason, my brain was also controlled, and I also had the idea of eating people."

"Several times I gnawed on living people in my dreams, and I woke up by myself..."

"I don't want to become a monster like them, Master Ruan, I beg you, save me!"

Mr. Gu shed tears regardless of his image.

Ruan Xia sighed.

"You get up first, I'll think of something."

According to what he just described, their five senses may be connected now.

His body and consciousness will be taken away sooner or later.

Mr. Gu was so excited that his eyes lit up.

"Thank you, Master Ruan! As long as you can save me, I will give you the Gu family! I only want my life!"

Ruan Xia thought to herself that this was the onset of the desire to survive, and the family property could be discarded.

When I really save you, I'm afraid you won't be so generous.

Of course she doesn't want this.

"I don't need your family fortune."

She paused.

"It is my sect's duty to subdue demons and eliminate demons."

Mr. Gu cried very movingly, and those two grimacing faces were indeed full of terror.

It looks very inconsistent.

At this moment, the Gu family's housekeeper suddenly burst in with a hurried expression.

After whispering a few words to Mrs. Gu, Mrs. Gu's face changed instantly.

"What? These people are here to visit now. Did someone leak the news?"

Mr. Gu looked at his wife, "What happened?"

Mrs. Gu glanced at the people at the door.

"He's not the second-in-command in your family! He started causing trouble as soon as you got sick. First, he colluded with the board of directors in private to oust you, and then publicized it outside..."

Mrs. Gu couldn't bear it.

Mr. Gu was a little anxious.

"Tell me what's wrong!"

Mrs. Gu quickly said, “They are announcing your death outside and saying that they want to change the president."

Mr. Gu couldn't take a breath and coughed several times.

"Rebellion against them!"

Gu Jincheng explained on the side.

"My second uncle is eager to seize power. His son is still underage, so he is eager to seize the family property."

Ruan Xia nodded. She had seen a lot of the dirty things of these wealthy families.

Gu's is a typical family business. The eldest family is in power, but the second family is unbalanced.

The shareholders are all blood relatives. Once the death of the chairman is confirmed, the second wife will have the opportunity to push his own person to take over.

Mr. Gu suddenly looked at Ruan Xia.

"Master Ruan, you have also seen the situation of our family. The fate of our family is in your hands."

Gu Jincheng also looked at her with a pleading expression.

Ruan Xia thought for a few seconds.

"I'm willing to give it a try, and you have to help me delay."

It was her first time encountering this kind of evil cultivator, and she wasn't 100% sure.

Gu Jincheng suddenly became energetic.

"Master Ruan, leave the procrastination to me and just do it."

Mrs. Gu grabbed her son's hand.

"I'll accompany you, our eldest brother is not someone to be bullied!"

Ruan Xia waved his hand and motioned for the rest to wait out.

When I closed the door, I heard the noise coming from downstairs.

Gu Jincheng tidied up his appearance.

Today was an unavoidable tough battle, and he faced relatives who usually treated him with care and concern.

Truth is a challenge.

Ruan Xia glanced at the closed door and locked it again.

Mr. Gu immediately prayed anxiously.

"Master Ruan, my brother is very cruel. I'm afraid my son won't be able to hold on for long."

His tone was like grasping at the last straw.

"Master Ruan, I beg you..."

Ruan Xia patted his shoulder as if to comfort him.

"I promise you I will try my best. You need to calm down first."

If they weren't just a bunch of mortals making trouble, the worst she could do was go out and fight with them.

There is no need to panic so much.

People are always easier to deal with than this one.

She asked Mr. Gu to lie flat on the sofa nearby.

"The human head is very important. Even if your head is occupied, it is still part of your body."

She explained very patiently.

"Since you changed it in a dream, we have to solve it in a dream."

Mr. Gu sat up from the sofa.

"Master Ruan, but I can't sleep now. Besides, he..."

A knife hit Mr. Gu on the back of his head.

The person fainted instantly.

How simple this is, staying up late for even a second is a sign of distrust in her.

Ruan Xia opened the ring and looked for what he wanted to use.

After searching for a long time, I found that I had overlooked one thing.

Her set of top-notch solid gold rainstorm pear blossom needles was lost in the cave!
