Chapter 57: Ghosts? Or Evil Spirits?

"Lihua, think this through, murder will cost you your life."

Zhang Tieniu tried to make one last effort to save her, but only received Lihua's sneer in response.

"People only pay with their life for murder when they're caught, and who else is here?"

Although she was about to be forced into the water, Yue Qingqing's face showed no sign of panic.

Her eyes flickered, and her small hand pinched a spell.

Lihua's body suddenly shook, and her arms involuntarily tightened, lifting Yue Qingqing back into mid-air.

Zhang Tieniu thought she had come to her senses and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Quick, while no one is back yet, let's take the jade and leave quickly."

Unexpectedly, Lihua seemed not to hear his words, turning and walking step by step toward the pushcart.

Her steps were stiff, like a puppet being pulled by strings.

"Lihua?"

Zhang Tieniu felt something was off and called out a few more times.
