Coming of the Villain Boss! - Chapter 1071
Chapter 1071: The Superior Leader (20)
Wen Nuan glanced at the shapeshifters who suddenly turned hostile. She felt that as compared to them, Ming Shu was much cuter.
Wen Nuan was not worried at all. She knew that someone would protect her.
Why was she so confident?
… Maybe it was because she knew how to cook.
Although it was not something very amazing.
“There were rumors that she got possessed by a witcher spirit. This might have something to do with her?” Cang Xiu said. “Don’t you all know what a witcher spirit is?”
Ming Shu smiled and replied, “Tell me, what is a witcher spirit?”
“Witcher spirit…” Cang Xiu frowned.
Nie Fan saw this and glared at Cang Xiu angrily. He stood out and said, “Witcher spirits have no real form. However, they can control the actions of a shapeshifter. They are evil.”
Ming Shu smiled gently. “How do you know if a shapeshifter has been possessed by a witcher spirit?”
Nie Fan replied, “They will be different from their old self. Their actions are strange and they will harm their own clansmen.”
Ming Shu nodded. “What if the person just went crazy?”
Nie Fan: “…”
Weren’t they talking about the female beside her just now?
Why were they talking about witcher spirits?
The black dog leader looked at Wen Nuan intently. He raised his hand and tried to be the mediator. “Let’s not talk about the witcher spirit now. Let’s find the murderer first and appease the beast god. If not, we will have to wait until tomorrow.”
“Her…” A shapeshifter pointed at Wen Nuan.
The black dog leader smiled. “We shouldn’t jump to conclusions just because they look similar. We have never been to distant places…”
No one knew what the distant places contained.
The black dog leader slowly explained, “At the start, there were very few tribes in the surroundings. They slowly moved in so everyone got to know of the different tribes one by one.”
The black dog leader was not a large or muscular person. He even seemed small as compared to the other manly shapeshifters.
However, when he spoke, there was an aura around him. No one dared to interrupt him.
The black dog leader continued, “However, we personally caught this male shapeshifter at the crime scene. We saw everything personally and know that he is the murderer. Hence, the most important thing now is to punish the murderer and seek forgiveness from the beast god.”
The shapeshifters who wanted to say more swallowed their words back.
Hu Jiu held onto Nie Fan and Cang Xiu. She stood at the back and kept glancing toward Ming Shu.
Ming Shu was smiling while she looked at the platform. She seemed to have seen something interesting.
The black dog leader asked someone to bring the prey up and placed them around the person who was tied up, in four piles for the cardinal directions.
After they were done, Ming Shu saw a little shapeshifter being carried up and placed on a round stone on the platform.
The black dog leader slit the finger of the little shapeshifter. The little shapeshifter cried.
“Oh no…” Wen Nuan bit her lip in fear. “He is just a child…”
The shapeshifters around them were used to this scene. This must be the normal procedure of a sacrifice.
Ming Shu watched as the blood dripped into a dent on the stone. Once there was enough blood, it flowed out of the dent and toward the four corners where the prey were placed.
The boar leader had come to Ming Shu’s side. He heard what Wen Nuan said so he whispered, “Newborns have an easier time communicating with the beast god.”
Ming Shu replied, “Superstition.”
Wen Nuan looked at Ming Shu.
Ming Shu kept a straight face. “We are science fiction.”
Wen Nuan: “…” Both are unexplainable and hard to believe. What is the difference?
The black dog leader got up. He allowed the little shapeshifter to continue bleeding.
The black dog leader started chanting.
All the shapeshifters held their breath and waited.
Ming Shu saw no changes in the surroundings. However, all the shapeshifters started looking more serious.
The boar leader finished chanting and kneeled down. He kowtowed three times.
Then he walked in front of the person in the gray cloak and grabbed his elbow. He aimed the sharp rock at the arm…
Boom!
The black dog leader fell down from the platform and landed heavily on the ground.
All the shapeshifters got a shock when they saw this sudden change.
What’s happening?
Ming Shu slowly walked out of the crowd and jumped on the platform.
“Yao Luo, what are you doing? Come down!” the shapeshifters shouted at her angrily.
“Are you crazy? Why are you offending the beast god?”
The black dog leader climbed up from the ground. The shouts from the crowd caused him to focus his attention on Ming Shu.
Ming Shu was standing on the platform with a gentle smile. “Didn’t you all say that I am a witcher spirit? Why can’t I offend the beast god?”
She took the blame again.
“She is indeed possessed by the witcher spirit.”
“Bring her down. The witcher spirit is trying to ruin our sacrifice.”
“Yao Luo, what are you doing?” The black dog leader’s face was dark. “Get down!”
Ming Shu smiled. “I want to have an intimate interaction with the beast god.”
“You…”
How could she say such offensive things!
Ming Shu turned around and looked at the person who was tied up. He had raised his head. His face was dirty and he was looking at her with his black eyes.
Ming Shu smiled and waved her hand. The vines on his body broke and fell to the ground.
Ming Shu caught him in her arms.
He continued looking at her. His body was unbelievably soft. Ming Shu felt that she was carrying a ball of cotton.
She couldn’t sense his body temperature, his breath, or even his pulse.
He was like a dead person.
“Yao Luo—”
The people below shouted at her.
“I can hear you. You don’t have to be so loud.” Ming Shu turned and looked at the people below.
“Yao Luo, what do you want?” The black dog leader brought his men and rushed up the platform. They blocked her path of retreat. “This male shapeshifter blasphemed against the beast god and killed shapeshifters. Why are you saving him?”
“You sound as though you never killed shapeshifters before.” Ming Shu’s voice was gentle. “Aren’t you eating shapeshifters every day?”
The black dog leader: “…”
How can that be the same?
“He blasphemes against the beast god!”
“Oh, so?” Ming Shu smiled arrogantly.
The black dog leader felt anger exploding in his heart. His face turned hideous. “If he blasphemes against the beast god, he needs to be sacrificed to the beast god to ask for forgiveness.”
