Chapter 109: Taking a Walk in the Rain, Sheltering Her with an Umbrella

“I’ve been studying all kinds of talismans since I was three years old. I want to see if your talismans are more powerful than mine.”

After saying that, Chu Luo took out a handful of talismans from her pocket and threw them at Second Brother Huang as he threw his at her.

The moment the two sets of talismans met in the air, they emitted a crackling sound that pierced the ears.

Second Brother Huang and the man couldn’t stand the intense light and subconsciously retreated.

Chu Luo quickly took out a handful of pills and threw them at Second Brother Huang.

Second Brother Huang didn’t expect Chu Luo, who knew about talismans, to also carry poison with her.

The handful of pills exploded on his body.

Owww…

Second Brother Huang quickly covered his eyes, nose, and mouth before pressing on his heart. He screamed in pain.

His feet sank and he fell into the sea.

Plop!

“Pfft…”

Second Brother Huang wildly splashed around in the water. He was no longer as arrogant as before. With water all over his face, he looked like a drowning dog.

Chu Luo walked in front of him and asked in a low voice, “Are you going to hand over the thing or not?”

Second Brother Huang finally floated up from the water. As he looked at the person in front of him, the various pain emanating from his body made him wish he could skin her alive. However, when he thought of the talismans on her body that were more powerful than his, he had an idea and hurriedly pretended to beg for mercy.

“I’ll do it, I’ll do it. As long as you remove the poison from my body first.”

“Antidote? Sure.”

Chu Luo quickly took out a talisman, which enlarged to pull him out of the water.

Second Brother Huang leaned on the enlarged talisman and said weakly, “I can’t move my hand. Come here, I’ll tell you where it is. Take it yourself.”

“Young lady, be careful. Second Brother Huang is evil. He definitely doesn’t have good intentions.”

Chu Luo glanced at the person standing beside her.

The person said, “The thing on him was obtained from an ancient tomb. This thing is especially domineering. The energy inside can harm the cultivation on us.”

“An ancient tomb?” Chu Luo frowned when she heard that. “Which ancient tomb?”

“I don’t know. This thing was taken out from that ancient tomb more than ten years ago. It had always been treasured as an antique. I didn’t expect Second Brother Huang to discover it. He stole this thing from that family and goes around harming people.”

When Chu Luo heard this, a strange feeling suddenly surged in her heart.

She finally lost her patience and twirled her finger at the talisman that Second Brother Huang was lying on. “Get up.”

Second Brother Huang’s body was thrown into the air.

Then, the gale that hadn’t weakened turned into wind blades and swooshed a few times.

As Second Brother Huang and the man widened their eyes, they saw Second Brother Huang’s clothes turn into pieces and fall into the sea. At the same time, the things on his body also fell into the sea.

Chu Luo quickly grabbed the Heaven-and-Earth pouch that had fallen into the sea.

She tapped her finger on the talisman again. “Drop.”

The talisman pressed down on Second Brother Huang and, amid his horrified scream, pushed him into the sea.

No matter how he struggled and cried for help, no one responded to him.

Chu Luo took the Heaven-and-Earth pouch and was about to leave.

“Miss.”

The other person quickly stopped her.

Chu Luo looked at him and asked, “What is it?”

That person walked up to her and said, “I’m Xuan Tong, the eldest disciple of Xuanqing School. Please give me the thing in your hand, Miss. I must return it to the owner.”

“Oh?” Chu Luo looked at him and smiled faintly. “If you want this thing, you’ll have to take it from me. Can you?”

Since it was in her hands, there was no way she would give it back again.

“You…” Xuan Tong didn’t expect the little girl in front of him to be so unreasonable. He said, “This thing has an owner to begin with. It’s…”

“There was originally an owner?”

Chu Luo laughed when she heard this, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes. “This is something that was stolen from an ancient tomb. Speaking of its owner, it’s someone who has already passed away and is in that ancient tomb.”

“But this has always been cherished by Mr. Qian.”

“Where did Mr. Qian get it?”

“Erm…”

Chu Luo put the Heaven-and-Earth pouch in her pocket and said, “Tell that Mr. Qian to come to 2233, the old city district, to look for me if he wants this thing.”

With that, she leaped ten meters away.

Xuan Tong stared after the little girl who had disappeared into the dark quickly. Since she had given him that address, he could report it to Mr. Qian. Then, he turned to look at Second Brother Huang, who was pressed against the seawater by the talisman. He thought that this person had done many evil deeds and deserved to be punished by a little girl today.

He pretended not to see it and jumped out of the sea.

Chu Luo took the Heaven-and-Earth pouch and quickly walked towards the apartment.

The surrounding wind had decreased greatly, but it was raining now. The rain wasn’t heavy, and after the strong winds earlier, the surroundings were cold.

Phoenix set up an isolation barrier around Chu Luo. As Chu Luo walked in the rain, the rain didn’t fall on her at all.

At this moment, the streets were very quiet. Chu Luo became interested and walked leisurely. As she walked, she wondered what was in the Heaven-and-Earth pouch.

After thinking for a while, she muttered, “Eighteen years ago? The timing is too strange.”

Phoenix reminded her in her mind, “Mistress, I also woke up 18 years ago.”

“Yes, that’s why I said that it’s too strange. These things were stolen from the king’s tomb, aren’t they?”

At this point, Chu Luo’s face darkened. “These people are so daring as to disturb the king and the masters’ rest.”

After saying this, she pursed her lips and didn’t say anything else, but her body exuded a trace of killing intent.

After walking for some time, she suddenly saw the light of a car behind her.

Chu Luo wasn’t worried that the water brought about by the car would splash on her, but she still stepped aside.

The car quickly drove past her.

After driving for a few meters, the car suddenly braked.

Chu Luo stood there and looked at the car in front. She saw the door open and an umbrella open. A tall man’s leather shoes stepped on the water as he walked towards her.

“Li Yan.”

Chu Luo looked at the person walking over and was a little surprised.

Li Yan walked up to her with the black umbrella and frowned. “What did you do just now?”

Chu Luo shrugged. “I saw injustice and decided to help.”

When Li Yan heard this, his brows furrowed even more. He raised the umbrella in his hand above her head. “Go to the car.”

“But I want to take a stroll in the rain.”

“…”

Chu Luo tilted her head to look at the speechless Li Yan and grinned at him. At the same time, she pointed at the umbrella above her head. “Don’t cover me. I used a rain-avoidance talisman. The rain can’t get to me.”

The umbrella above her head didn’t retract. She could hear the impatience in Li Yan’s cold voice. “If you want to take a stroll, then move. Don’t just stand here.”

“Hey…”

“Shut up!”

After Li Yan finished speaking, the umbrella in his hand tilted slightly towards her.

Chu Luo saw that his shoulder was getting drenched by the rain and subconsciously moved closer to him.

As she walked, she said to him, “I said that I wouldn’t get drenched. Why are you still holding the umbrella over my head? You’re drenched. What if you catch a cold?”

“You’ll serve me if I catch a cold.”

“…” Chu Luo quickly moved closer to him until their arms were touching. Then, she said in dissatisfaction, “I knew you didn’t have good intentions. I’m not your servant. I won’t serve you.”

Li Yan tilted his head to look at her and pursed his lips tightly, not answering her.

The two of them walked slowly in the rain.

Chu Luo talked about what happened at school today as she walked.

Li Yan only listened and didn’t reply.

The two of them walked for about half an hour before arriving at the apartment.

Chu Luo walked into the living room and looked at the man who followed her in. She then looked at his moist shoulder and ran into the bedroom to get a clean towel for him. “Hurry up and wipe yourself off, or you’ll catch a cold.”

Li Yan looked at her deeply. He knew that this little thing was worried that she would have to serve him if he were to catch a cold.

He didn’t take the towel and walked to the sofa to sit down. “It’s fine. I’ll just change out of it later.”

“Then hurry up and go and change.”

“There’s no hurry.” Li Yan leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes slightly. He suddenly became a little lazy.

Chu Luo looked at his shoulder and frowned. In the end, she went behind him and patted the dry towel on his shoulder.

Li Yan tilted his head to look at the dry towel on his shoulder and closed his eyes without moving.

Chu Luo: “…”

Why did she feel that this person was doing this on purpose!

After standing there for a while with her cheeks puffed up, Chu Luo felt that something was wrong. She tentatively poked his shoulder with a finger. “Hey.”

Li Yan didn’t react.

Chu Luo: “…” Did this person just fall asleep in her living room?

Chu Luo planned to continue poking.

At this moment, Li Yan suddenly grabbed her wrist.

“Uh…”

Chu Luo reflexively tapped her toes and turned around, arriving in front of the sofa.

However, before she could regain her balance, the hand that was holding her wrist exerted strength. She leaned forward and was about to hit him.

Chu Luo widened her eyes and subconsciously wanted to take out a pill.

At this moment, Li Yan opened his eyes and looked at her coldly. “What are you doing?”

The thief was crying “stop the thief”? Chu Luo was so angry that she laughed.

“I’m not the one who’s doing something. What are you doing?”

After saying that, she indicated with her eyes for him to take a look at himself.

Li Yan looked at the wrist he was holding and let go in the next second.

Chu Luo didn’t expect him to suddenly let go of her hand.

As her body weight was being supported by his hand, once he let go, she fell straight into his arms.

“Ooh… my nose!”

Chu Luo looked up and criticized him. “Why didn’t you warn me before you let go?”

Li Yan looked down at her with a deep gaze.
