Chapter 33: Deep Sisterly Affection

As long as one person is sacrificed.

She can be safe for a period of time, pass the remaining time in the Fudi peacefully, and before the next sacrifice to the Mother of Ghosts, she can leave the Fudi and return to a normal person's life.

In her view, Wen Chao is already a dead man.

Because any act of resistance by Wen Chao will lead him to violate the rules of the Mother of Ghosts.

But her hand did not touch Wen Chao.

A hand with long nails covered her mouth, and another arm hugged her; although this arm was thin, it was as firm as iron pincers.

Yue Mei struggled with all her might, but could not shake this arm in the slightest; she could not even make a sound.

Until her consciousness faded, Yue Mei was unable to let out a single cry of pain.

"I am truly sorry for always letting you eat corpses; now that there is fresh meat, you can begin to enjoy it. Be careful not to make too much noise, and do not dirty the room."

Su Hui Lan did not know what was about to happen.

Without Yue Mei's interference.

The name she wrote down was Su Hui Lan!

The palm of the Mother of Ghosts almost touched Su Huijin's eyelids, but after this name was written, her movements stopped; she then turned her head to look at Su Hui Lan, the hatred in her eyes almost erupting.

After surviving their first brush with death, they received the favor of the 'Partial Wealth God' and obtained the 'Borrow and Return' blessing. This blessing allowed them to lend the talismans, magical artifacts, and divine abilities they had obtained to others for use.

Could that be the child of the Child-Seeking Mother of Ghosts?

But wasn't that released by the Gate-Breaking Malevolent Entity?

Su Huijin realized that things could not end well; the Child-Seeking Mother of Ghosts was likely determined to kill her today.

The Mother of Ghosts ignored this believer and, following the five-clap sound made by Su Hui Lan, slowly left Room 401 and walked toward Room 402.

The only person she could use as a substitute was her sister.

"But I truly have no other way. From childhood to adulthood, no matter what I did, you would forgive me. This time... you will forgive me too, right?"

The Su Hui Lan sisters waited for the arrival of the Mother of Ghosts.

"Actually, you shouldn't hate me. I originally wanted to help you, but there are important things in my room that I cannot let you see."

Wen Chao closed his eyes and said softly to Yue Mei: "Little girl, do you have many doubts?"

But Su Huijin also had no choice. Although the effect of the Substitute Straw Man was strong, the conditions for its use were harsh.

They had encountered such scenes many times, so they appeared much calmer than the previous four people; the most important thing in this game was to follow the rules.

Rip!

But she did not want to die yet.

Relying on the ability of this blessing, every time they entered a Fudi, they would deliberately use their beauty to find a poor sap like He Qiong and trick him into entering the Fudi with them.

The two sisters had experienced four Fudi.

Her younger sister had used a Substitute Straw Man on her!

Wen Chao successfully transferred the identity of the Seeker to the Mother of Ghosts.

Su Hui Lan's thinking stopped.

No matter when.

"I have never seen your child, and it is even more impossible for me to kill..."

If they did not want to lend them anymore, they could take back the borrowed items at any time.

Su Hui Lan's expression was horrified: "Wait, I didn't, it was her..."

Yue Mei's eyes widened; she realized her fate, and her expression became incomparably terrified.

She closed her eyes, tears streaming down, grieving for her sister's encounter.

Relying on this routine, they survived until the fourth Fudi, and finally, this time, Su Huijin abandoned her sister as well.

It requires burying the target's hair in the straw man, pinning the target's birth date on the back, and the target must be within the line of sight, and the name must be written for it to take effect.

The Mother of Ghosts no longer cared about the game rules; her pale hands grabbed Su Huijin's arm, and her nails sank completely into her flesh.

The Mother of Ghosts tore her brain apart with her bare hands, stood in place with her blood-stained hands, her inner hatred vented, and she closed her eyes to enter the game state again.

Su Huijin had cried many times in the Fudi.

Su Huijin was stunned for a moment.

As long as she didn't panic, she would likely be safe.

Just as she was puzzled.

Speaking of this, Su Huijin was speechless.

Room 404.

To survive until now, how much of a price had she paid? Selling her conscience, selling her body, full of lies, and harming how many people who trusted and liked her.

Wen Chao listened to the sound of Yue Mei being torn apart, a gentle smile appearing on his face.

A pair of cold palms grabbed her head.

"You killed my child."

Being like this, how could she die in this mere game?

So she reached into her skirt, pulled out a straw man, quickly wrote a person's name on it, and then immediately closed her eyes and held her breath.

Substitute Straw Man: Tie hair, imprint birth date, write name; after meeting the conditions, the malevolent entity's attack target can be transferred to the person nearby.

After doing all this, and waiting for the Mother of Ghosts to leave, Su Huijin knelt beside her sister's corpse and wiped her tears in silence.

So she used a lethal talisman to kill two of the small malevolent entities, while the rest fled in a panic.

The Mother of Ghosts stroked Su Hui Lan's face and blew a breath into her eyes, successfully completing the handover, and then Su Hui Lan passed the qualification of the Seeker to Su Huijin.

But the Child-Seeking Mother of Ghosts' movements did not pause in the slightest; two pale palms pierced entirely into Su Hui Lan's eye sockets. In the instant her consciousness faded, Su Hui Lan suddenly remembered the magical artifact Su Huijin had obtained on the day He Qiong died.

On the surface, they look delicate and dainty, but in reality, they are veteran Chosen who have already experienced several Fudi.

When encountering danger in the Fudi, let the poor sap stand in front; once the poor sap can't hold on, abandon this person, let him attract the attention of the malevolent entity, and escape while taking the opportunity.

"You killed my child!"

Su Huijin gathered her courage, found the Mother of Ghosts again, blew a breath into her eye sockets, and completed the handover of the Seeker's identity.

"Sister... I'm sorry."

Then Wen Chao's tone became light and slow.

Su Huijin also easily found the Child-Seeking Mother of Ghosts standing nearby. Just as she was about to blow a breath, she suddenly heard a cold voice coming from the opposite side.

"So... I'm sorry."

Pressing against the back of her neck, a mouth with sharp teeth opened.

What kind of situation is this? No one said this kind of situation would happen.

"???"

Listening to the words of the Child-Seeking Mother of Ghosts, Su Hui Lan realized that her younger sister would likely die here, but she had no way to help and could only grieve for her sister in her heart.

Anyway, their items would not disappear because of the poor sap's death; relying on the 'Borrow and Return' blessing, they could all easily return to their hands.

She suddenly remembered that on the night of the previous day, a group of pale small malevolent entities rushed into the two sisters' room, wanting to grab and touch them with their small ghost hands.

"This bitch..."

The Mother of Ghosts' words were full of hatred, making the Su sisters' hair stand on end. Su Huijin, whose arm was stinging, could not care about the game and opened her eyes to face the Mother of Ghosts directly.

But strangely, she did not hear her sister's scream.

"You have seen my child!"

But this time it was real.

From today on, she would never cry sincerely for anyone's sacrifice again; as long as she could survive, everything could be sacrificed.
