Chapter 113 Nightmare Curse (2)_1
Who exactly is this girl before me?
Shangguan You’s gaze grew cold as she swiftly formed hand seals in the air. It was indeed the Nightmare Curse.
"Evil begets evil, don’t you know? Enjoy the taste of reaping what you sow," Shangguan You said with a cold laugh. The man standing opposite her, Uncle Yu, had already fallen into deep sleep.
The Nightmare Curse. Be it day or night, endless nightmares would forever accompany him. His deepest fears would be stirred up one by one. Unless she undid it, Uncle Yu would become another person—closed off, paranoid, and never able to escape his own nightmares.
Shangguan You glanced around the room indifferently. Her gaze fell on the pot of large white flowers by the window, and she stored it in her space, simultaneously extinguishing the sandalwood incense. She also collected the incense burner. If these items can knock out even Shangguan Qing, it means they’re non-poisonous individually, she mused. Only when combined do they cause unconsciousness. I’ll take them back to study; they might prove useful.
Looking at the unconscious Shangguan Qing, Shangguan You cradled his body in her arms. Since practicing the Medicine King Canon, her strength had surpassed that of an ordinary person, and she was full of Spiritual Energy. It wasn’t just Shangguan Qing she could carry—even two people wouldn’t be too much for her.
With a leap, she swiftly flew into the mid-air. Just as she departed, Shangguan Qing’s body trembled slightly in her arms. It seems he’s waking up. Shangguan You’s figure flashed, and she landed in a dark alley, setting Shangguan Qing down and pretending to have fainted beside him.
Sure enough, Shangguan Qing’s hand moved slightly, and then he scrambled up. He widened his eyes and looked around at the pitch-dark surroundings. When he discovered Shangguan You lying on the ground, a look of both surprise and confusion crossed his face.
