Chapter 78 Little Succubus - Tongtong

"Silver Tier 3. Kid, you could barely take him on," Willow Crab urged Gu Ye, its voice filled with eagerness.

"Wait a bit longer, let's figure out his background first." Gu Ye suppressed the agitation in his heart and responded in his mind in a deep voice, his gaze still tightly locked on the Landlord, not daring to relax for a moment.

Soon, the maid neatly arranged all the 'food' on the table, then slowly retreated back into the pitch-black rift behind the Landlord, and the rift closed, as if it had never appeared.

"You may begin your meal!" The Landlord waved his hand, his tone carrying an indisputable strength. A hypocritical smile was plastered on his fat face, but a trace of scrutiny was hidden in the depths of his eyes.

The Field Ghosts on the wall could no longer hold back. With expressions of ecstasy, they jumped down from the wall one after another, rushing to the wooden table without a care, greedily gnawing on the eerie organs on the table.

"Crunch, crunch" harsh sounds came from their mouths, saliva dripped down the corners of their mouths, and they looked greedy and hideous.

Seeing that the four did not move for a long time, the Landlord said with a gloomy face: "Do you think the food I, Wealthy King, prepared is not delicious?"

Gu Ye's expression was calm, he did not reply, just slightly lowered his eyes, secretly observing the changes in Wealthy King's expression, trying to catch clues about his rules from it.

Seeing Gu Ye so calm, Luo Yuerou's inner anxiety dissipated for the most part. Even facing Wealthy King's pressure, she felt no fear at all, just standing quietly beside Gu Ye with a calm expression.

In contrast, the other two Examinees were already terrified out of their wits by the pressure radiating from Wealthy King.

That aura was even more terrifying than the pressure Luo Yuerou had released earlier, carrying a kind of sinister and overbearing quality of someone who had long held a superior position.

The two hurriedly waved their hands, defending themselves with trembling voices: "No, we don't dare! We'll eat! We'll eat right now!"

Gu Ye looked down and saw the two trembling as they climbed down from the wall, walking to the wooden table with unsteady steps.

The Field Ghosts that were gnawing, seemingly wary of Wealthy King's majesty, or perhaps fearing the strength of Gu Ye and his companion, subconsciously gave them two empty seats, but their eyes still scanned the two greedily.

Looking at the disgusting food in front of them, their stomachs churned, and they couldn't help but bend over and retch, their faces pale as paper, fine cold sweat seeping from their foreheads.

But thinking of Wealthy King's terror, the two dared not disobey. As if having made the determination to burn their boats, they suddenly closed their eyes, trembling as they reached out, grabbed a piece of organ that they didn't know what it was, and hurriedly stuffed it into their mouths.

They didn't even dare to chew carefully, roughly chewing twice, then forcefully swallowed it. As their throats rolled, their faces showed extreme pain and disgust.

Luo Yuerou frowned, slightly pouted, and a flash of disgust crossed her eyes.

Wealthy King looked at this scene with satisfaction, then turned his head, staring at Gu Ye and his companion with gloomy eyes.

"Are you two not eating yet?"

Luo Yuerou frowned and mobilized her spiritual energy, ready to strike at any time.

Having heard Willow Crab's words, Gu Ye was actually not afraid of Wealthy King; with Lin Daiyu, he could even fight him to a draw.

However, Gu Ye wanted to know what Wealthy King's rules were, fearing being tricked by him.

Seeing the atmosphere becoming increasingly heavy, Luo Yuerou's heart also throbbed.

"Daddy~~!"

Suddenly, a childish girl's voice sounded. A little girl appeared from the small path, and behind the little girl followed the Enslaving Ghost from earlier.

"My little ancestor, run slower, be careful not to fall." The Enslaving Ghost followed closely behind, its face full of nervousness.

The little girl rushed over and threw herself into Wealthy King's arms. She poked her little head out from his arms, staring with large, round eyes at Luo Yuerou and Gu Ye, and said crisply:

"Big sister, big brother, you are so beautiful."

Wealthy King heard this and touched the little girl's head, "Tong Tong, do you want big sister and big brother to play with you?"

The little girl left Wealthy King's embrace and clapped her hands happily, "Okay, okay! Thank you, Daddy!"

Wealthy King smiled and turned to look at Gu Ye and his companion, saying: "You two, I apologize for the offense earlier! You must have heard our conversation just now! As long as you play with my daughter, you can come to me, Wealthy King, for anything you need."

Wealthy King patted his chest in assurance.

Hearing his words, Gu Ye felt it was feasible; this was a good opportunity to inquire about a lot of information, but it still depended on Luo Yuerou's wishes.

Gu Ye turned to look at Luo Yuerou, she thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Gu Ye replied to Wealthy King: "Okay!"

"Haha, straightforward!" Wealthy King laughed upon hearing this and hurriedly said.

"You two, don't stand up there anymore, please come this way." Wealthy King gestured, inviting the two to go together.

The two at the table, upon hearing Wealthy King's invitation to Gu Ye and his companion, and seeing how polite he was to them, couldn't help but open their eyes and look at Gu Ye and his companion.

Gu Ye and his companion had already climbed down from the wall, and Tong Tong ran over to surround them, calling them big sister and big brother.

Her voice couldn't have been sweeter, and the two were instantly heartbroken. Could it be that looks really are justice!

"Let's go!"

Wealthy King led Gu Ye and his companion from the small path towards the courtyard. The other two watched the backs of Gu Ye and the others as they disappeared, then looked at the 'food' in front of them, feeling a wave of pain.

"Why aren't you two eating yet? This is the Master's reward for you." The Enslaving Ghost's gloomy voice suddenly sounded from behind them, and a terrifying pressure suddenly enveloped their hearts.

The two immediately felt a shiver, hurriedly lowered their heads, and continued to eat the disgusting 'food'...

Gu Ye and Luo Yuerou followed Wealthy King, walking all the way into the imposing courtyard. Inside the courtyard, there were carved beams and painted pillars, pavilions and towers arranged in a well-proportioned manner, forming a stark contrast with the dilapidated earthen houses in the village, everywhere revealing the Landlord's luxury and sophistication.

Just as they walked into the courtyard, a servant dressed in a gray gown stepped forward quickly, leaned into Wealthy King's ear, and whispered a few words.

Wealthy King's expression changed slightly, then he turned to Gu Ye and his companion and instructed:

"You two, please accompany Tong Tong for a while. I'll be back shortly, I definitely won't be long."

After speaking, he hurriedly followed the servant and left the courtyard.

Tong Tong held Gu Ye and Luo Yuerou's hands, skipping and jumping as she led them through the courtyard to a small, exquisite garden.

This was specially built by Wealthy King for Tong Tong, filled with all kinds of strange flowers and plants, as well as toys like swings and slides, which was very cute.

"Kid, where did you find a Demon?" Willow Crab's voice suddenly sounded in Gu Ye's mind, its tone carrying a bit of surprise and confusion.

"A Demon?"

"Master Liu, you said this little girl is a Demon." Gu Ye asked suspiciously in his heart.

"That's right! And it's a Succubus at that!" Willow Crab's voice was very certain. It paused, then added, "But looking at the small horns hidden on her head, she should have only been born a few years ago and hasn't fully awakened her Demon powers yet."

"Then is she dangerous?"

"She's only a few years old, she doesn't know anything."

Gu Ye breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

"Big brother, big sister, come and jump rope with me." Tong Tong took out a thin cloth rope from somewhere.

"Okay!" Luo Yuerou smiled and answered. While she agreed readily, she turned to look at Gu Ye and hurriedly asked.

"Is this little girl dangerous?"

Gu Ye shook his head, and only then did Luo Yuerou turn around to play with Tong Tong.
