After Being Possessed By A Witch, I Became An Outlaw

Chapter 116 Painting Cakes, Everyone Is Painting Cakes

Chapter 116: Drawing Pie, All Drawing Pie

Gu Pingtao felt that he had been going through a rough patch recently. He called on his brothers to catch snakes, but after a long time and a lot of manpower and resources spent, someone else caught the snakes.

Following the orders of the sect, they came to Spirit Communication City to control the outsiders, but these people revolted.

He and his little companions got separated from the team and hurriedly escaped from the city.

Fortunately, as the eldest senior brother, he still had some prestige. When he talked about emotions, the hearts of the team members didn't completely scatter.

But then, they encountered a big problem of hunger.

As a group of cultivators, they didn't know how to find food and were still starving.

Fortunately, they found a lot of fragments in the wilderness, so they were no longer ordinary people who couldn't use spells, which gave them a little sense of security.

And when Gu Pingtao saw Chen Runyu, he felt that his opportunity had come.

At this moment, they had nine senior brothers, while the other side only had a girl and a little kid.

Nine against two, the advantage was on their side.

What's more, this girl looked foolish. Just by observing her, it was clear that she had no sense of alertness and lacked experience in the world.

How could they miss such a fat lamb that delivered itself to their door?

"This woman looks pretty good. Don't kill her directly later, let's have some fun first."

"I'll take care of the little one."

They had already made their assignments.

On this dark deserted island, morality and order naturally disappeared, replaced only by the purest human desires.

However, it had only been three days, and so-called righteous Daoists already had such thoughts. It could be seen that they weren't necessarily upright people in normal times.

Gu Pingtao didn't have much desire for affairs between men and women, but he had a strong desire for power.

After becoming the eldest senior brother, he enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded by stars.

Having beauty didn't necessarily mean having power.

But with power, everything else naturally followed.

Gu Pingtao was ambitious. He felt that this turmoil might also be an opportunity, an opportunity for talents like him to rise.

"After subduing them, we can do whatever we want."

This sentence also implied the needs of his brothers.

Now, his companions were all like they had taken chicken blood.

Although a few of them were hesitant, there were a few excited ones, and the silent minority had to go along with the group.

Chen Runyu didn't perceive the danger, but Zi Mian had already sensed it.

She silently tightened the small knife in her left hand and the fire attribute fragment in her right hand.

"Sister Xiaoyu, we've come far enough. Shouldn't we go back now?"

"Let's look a little longer. There are a lot of gold attributes today. Senior brother must be very happy."

The distribution of the fragments had no pattern, or rather, they hadn't found a pattern yet.

There might be more water in one area by the water's edge, but in another area, there might be more fire.

In any case, everything was left to fate.

"This small forest is so eerie and scary. I'm scared."

Zi Mian reminded Chen Runyu in her own way, and the hearts of the people in the forest also tightened.

Their actions were quite methodical. They had set up traps and ambushes specifically to catch Chen Runyu, fearing that she also had powerful spell fragments and worried about the damage that direct confrontation would cause.

As long as they caught her off guard and subdued her, even if she had fragments, she wouldn't be able to use them, and they could also avoid harming the beauty.

Once Chen Runyu stopped advancing, their ambush would fail, and they would have to launch a strong attack. At that time, it would be uncertain whether they would live or die.

Just as they were all on high alert, Chen Runyu responded, "If you're scared, then wait for me here. I'll go alone. Look, there's a fragment over there!"

Chen Runyu happily pointed to a light spot not far away.

Naturally, that was the bait in the trap, deliberately placed by Gu Pingtao.

"I'm scared even when I'm alone."

"Then can I just pick up that one and come back?"

Zi Mian: "..."

Do I have to say directly that there is danger in this forest?

I can't stop it, really can't stop it.

If it weren't for the fragments of the Dao, Zi Mian wouldn't have to worry at all.

She has the ability to kill, dealing with mortals is easy.

But now she is unsure of what methods the people inside have, and she doesn't want to risk the lives of two people.

"No, I'm just afraid of the dark. If you leave my side, I'll be scared."

Zi Mian revealed her own weakness.

Gu Pingtao and the others were stunned.

What a troublesome kid, why is she so annoying?

They were itching to take action and suppress her directly.

Chen Runyu is also a bit troubled now. Xiao Zi is usually well-behaved, but she doesn't know what's gotten into her today.

However, she also wants the fragments.

Since that's the case...

"If you're afraid of the dark, then light a torch!"

"Okay."

Zi Mian held the red fragment and released a fire spell towards the pile of dry leaves.

"Meteor Shower!"

Meteor Shower is a combination of multiple fireball spells falling together. A single fireball is not as powerful as a fireball spell, but it has the advantage of quantity, like a rain of fire.

With this spell, the whole forest was set ablaze.

Gu Pingtao exclaimed and quickly retreated. After being burned and embarrassed, they finally escaped from the sea of fire.

They didn't catch anyone, and they lost a few pieces of the bait fragments.

After the flames in the forest extinguished, Chen Runyu unknowingly went to pick up the fragments.

She didn't notice the commotion just now. Zi Mian helplessly kept an eye on her.

This time, Gu Pingtao lost both his wife and soldiers. With several failed attempts, his subordinates naturally had complaints.

He noticed this and became secretly nervous.

This team can no longer afford another failure.

They must succeed next time!

And now, they must do something.

"My plan failed, it's fate!"

Gu Pingtao said unwillingly in front of everyone. Everyone fell silent. The meat was almost in their mouths, how could they not be angry?

Gu Pingtao tested everyone's thoughts and quickly continued, "They say that after a downturn comes a turning point. We've been unlucky for a few days, it's time for a reversal."

Everyone nodded.

That's the truth. Everyone has bad luck sometimes, and when luck is at its worst, there will always be a rebound.

Luck can't be bad forever, right?

Gu Pingtao wasn't originally an unlucky person.

After these words, everyone began to have expectations.

Perhaps the previous bad luck was just a sacrifice for a later stroke of good luck.

Anyway, there is no better choice now, so let's go with this!

"Enough said, everyone go hunt for some food. There are beasts in the forest and fish in the water. We won't starve to death.

When everyone is full and satisfied, I will lead you to achieve something great.

I already have a plan in mind, so don't worry, brothers."

In reality, this is all just a bluff.

He doesn't have a good plan.

But if he doesn't make empty promises, the team will soon disband.

It has to be said that the Talisman Treasure Sect learns to draw symbols, but they are good at drawing empty promises...
