Chapter 122 Hating Oneself

"Why aren't you hurt?" Mu Anxiao asked Shen Yan.

Shen Yan looked down at Mu Anxiao and said, "If you ask any more questions, I'll hand you over to that man-eating wolf demon."

"The wolf demon is a picky eater," Mu Anxiao boasted.

Shen Yan snorted, "It is picky, but it never refuses people with immortal destinies, because their spiritual power, though small, is pure."

"What he said is true," the man in the pale blue robe said, tapping the air.

Instantly, Mu Anxiao's expression changed, "Is that so? I remember you said I have an immortal destiny. In that case, the wolf demon must really like my meat."

"To add, it likes spiritual power. As for your meat, it's just a snack," the man in the pale blue robe emphasized.

Mu Anxiao's face gradually turned pale, "No way," she took half a step back, "In that case, it's safer for me to stay here."

"You'll be safer with me," Shen Yan said.

Mu Anxiao shook her head vigorously, "No, you'll definitely push me forward when we get there."

"Are you coming or not?" Shen Yan asked seriously.

Mu Anxiao wrinkled her nose and mumbled, "I feel like I'll be on my last legs if I go."

"If you're on your last legs, you can follow me to work."

Mu Anxiao calmly glanced at the Yin messenger who appeared beside her, saying, "I knew you would show up."

"Indeed, you've become calmer," the Yin messenger said with a look of satisfaction.

"I didn't expect this," the man in the pale blue robe walked up to the Yin messenger and glanced at Mu Anxiao, "This kid can actually see Yin messengers."

"Allow me to explain, this kid lied to me and took from me..."

"Can you stop talking nonsense? You were the one who was easily deceived by Ye Yin and forced me to eat something from the underworld," Mu Anxiao said hurriedly, afraid of being misunderstood.

"Then you still ate it," the man in the pale blue robe pointed at Mu Anxiao.

Mu Anxiao tutted twice and turned her face away.

The man in the pale blue robe looked at Mu Anxiao with interest, then at the Yin messenger, "You're here to collect souls, aren't you?"

"Yes, there are quite a few souls with immortal destinies here," the Yin messenger spread his hands, looking at the cloudy, shifting mist of light in his palm.

"Is that guy among them?" Mu Anxiao pointed at the fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy on the ground.

The Yin messenger followed Mu Anxiao's finger to the boy and said, "If he dies, it will fall upon you."

"Why?" Mu Anxiao frowned tightly.

"Because what you just asked is a form of verbal curse," the Yin messenger replied seriously.

Mu Anxiao was about to pout when she suddenly remembered Shen Yan's words, so she tugged her earlobe and said, "Fine, I won't say anything, alright?"

"Alright," the Yin messenger replied and turned to the slowly appearing white-haired woman, "Lead the way."

The white-haired woman's gaze fixed on the fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy.

"You still hate him," Shen Yan said.

The white-haired woman shifted her gaze to Shen Yan, "He looked so honest, I never thought he would do this to me. I don't hate him now, only myself," she lowered her eyelids, "for being too stupid."

"Indeed, self-awareness is good," Mu Anxiao casually remarked.

The moment Mu Anxiao said this, everyone's gaze locked onto her face.

Mu Anxiao lowered her head, realizing she had spoken out of turn.

Seeing that Mu Anxiao knew her mistake, Shen Yan turned to the Yin messenger without saying anything, "The wolf demon is fierce, be careful."

"Understood," the Yin messenger nodded and looked at the white-haired woman who was still staring at the boy, "He will face retribution."
