Chapter 3083 - 3084: Astrologer Disappears

Chapter 3083: Chapter 3084: Astrologer Disappears

"Step by step, it’ll eventually be resolved. The Zhong Family can’t cover the sky with one hand." Bai Ruozhu appeared confident on the surface, but was extremely worried inside. What Lady Zhong said was right; the Zhong Family wouldn’t let it go easily. Even if this astrological setback severely weakened them, the Zhong Family’s foundation is too deep to shake.

Moreover, the Zhong Family is now more desperate to resurrect Taisui.

"If the Zhong Family dares to come again, we’ll kill them all." Astrologer suddenly spoke, his voice low and cold, chilling everyone’s hearts and leaving them silent, some looking at him in shock.

"Astrologer, are you alright?" Ao Song asked worriedly.

Astrologer chuckled softly, "I’m fine, I’m feeling great now."

But that smile, that tone, was not at all like his usual self, as if he had turned into a different person.

Jiang Yichun wanted to ask Bai Ruozhu if he was okay, but the atmosphere was clearly not right. He whispered, "What’s wrong with him?"

Bai Ruozhu gently shook his head at him, mouthing: Demon Qi possession.

He glanced quickly at Astrologer, deep concern in his eyes.

"The Zhong Family might come for us. We can’t waste any more time. Talk later if necessary." Bai Ruozhu urged.

"Right, right, your father needs to recuperate as well." Lady Zhong looked at her husband, tears welling in her eyes. In twenty years of marriage, she had never seen him in such a sorry state, and it was caused by their own family.

Not daring to delay, everyone immediately set off towards Gaochang City. Night fell, and the coolness was like water. The group found a safe place to rest. Bai Ruozhu treated Zhong Kui a little, but his severed finger couldn’t be reattached.

Too much time had passed. Forcing it back might cause complications or infection.

The group planned only to rest for two hours before moving again, but upon opening their eyes, Astrologer was already gone!

Bai Ruozhu was shocked. Even though she was asleep, her consciousness was partially awake, and her hearing and perception were very sharp. Missing someone was unlikely unless Astrologer was extraordinarily skilled.

He wasn’t like this before, so it seems the Demon Qi increased his power.

"What do we do? Could Astrologer be in trouble? The Demonic Patterns on his face increased. I asked him, but he said he’s fine, that in a couple of days, he’ll suppress it." Ao Song said worriedly.

"Aunt, stay and take care of Uncle. The three of us will split up to search. If found, fire the signal first and try not to provoke him." Bai Ruozhu said.

With a clear plan, Ao Song’s mood steadied slightly, nodding vigorously, "Okay, I got it."

The three of them split in different directions to search. Astrologer likely wouldn’t have gone far, and his disappearance wouldn’t last long.

At this time, Ao Song heard the gentle sound of streaming water. Here, in the mountains, there was a stream flowing.

Ao Song decided to head towards the place on the other side where a cave was, but just two steps in, she suddenly heard a very faint groan.

The distance was too far, unclear, but she could sense the pain in the sound. Her heart raced, intuition told her, it must be Astrologer!

She rushed towards the sound, but remembering Bai Ruozhu’s instructions, she slowed her pace, careful not to anger him.

Finally, she clearly saw the person by the stream, wasn’t it her husband, the Astrologer?

She quickly stopped and cautiously sent out a signal flare, then slowly approached Astrologer.

"Ao Song..."

The weak murmur made her pause. Had he seen her?

She was just about to speak when she realized he wasn’t even looking in her direction. He was calling her name in pain!
