The very air seemed to freeze in that instant. In the dead silence, the woman trembled.
She didn't dare utter a single word, her trembling gaze fixed on the kitchen knife in Su Nian's hand as she carefully gulped.
She carefully averted her gaze, trying to come up with an excuse.
"I... It was all an accident..."
But before she could finish, the kitchen knife pressed against her skin, tilting her chin up.
"How about you curse me one more time?"
"I wouldn't dare! I wouldn't dare! I didn't do it on purpose! Don't blame me, don't blame me! It was all an order from above!"
The Heavenly Dao wanted to obliterate Su Nian, but it couldn't act directly, so it simply had these ghostly things do its dirty work for it.
Su Nian snorted. 'How ridiculous. Every world has its own Heavenly Dao, but this one, and only this one, always gives me a strange, twisted feeling.'
