"Ah ah!"
Mrs. Zhao was startled, letting out a scream, and nearly lost her footing as she was about to be dragged into the flower bushes.
"Wei Zhao!"
Yu Nianzhao called out calmly, and a shadow flashed past, sweeping over the flowers.
The red light spread out a bit, and as the hand released, Mrs. Zhao's face turned pale as she quickly escaped, fearfully hiding behind Mr. Zhao, nearly breaking into tears.
"Sob sob sob... I thought I was going to die." Mrs. Zhao was very scared, still trembling all over.
"What on earth are these things?" Xie Jiuxiao furrowed his brows tightly, seeing such mysterious things for the first time.
"These are Azalea Flower Essences grown by feeding them human blood. The azaleas here have been planted even longer than the ones in the yard, absorbing more nutrients, so they've taken form. Once they catch you, you'll be dragged to the Nether Road."
