Online Fortune Telling: Your Son Has Another Dad-Chapter 357 - 355: Reconciliation

"Old Daoist, you won’t last much longer, will you?"

Just as everyone was struggling to hold on, an ethereal and pleasing voice pierced their ears.

Soon after, they saw the girl in the red dress slowly approaching, appearing within everyone’s line of sight.

"Demon, the spiritual energy has not fully recovered yet!"

"You dared to deploy the Blood Evil Illusion Array; now, I suppose it’s hard for you to sustain it too, isn’t it?"

Upon hearing this, Zhenyuan immediately looked disdainful.

"Old Daoist, we’ve been at a stalemate for so long, it will inevitably end in one death and one injury."

"How about we both put an end to this, what do you say?"

The girl in the red dress suddenly suggested.

"Ha ha!"

Zhenyuan sneered, "Righteousness and evil have never stood together throughout history!"

"You’ve harmed so many innocent people; how can I let you exist in this world?"

"Hahaha..."

The girl in the red dress let out a series of silver bell-like laughs.

With a dismissive expression, she said, "If it weren’t for them provoking me, how could I possibly kill them?"

"Demon, dare you continue to sophistry before me?"

"Today, I’ll summon the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder to obliterate you!"

As he spoke, Zhenyuan reached into his pocket and pulled out a golden talisman.

Seeing this, Director He and Group Leader Qi exchanged a glance and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"Old Daoist, I think this lady makes a lot of sense."

"At the Yan Family graveyard, it was those thugs who forced open the coffin first."

"And those people were guilty as well; if they died, it would be equivalent to ridding the people of a scourge."

Group Leader Qi whispered.

"Yes, and at Tengxin Park, it was full of telecom fraudsters, all with innocent blood on their hands, and their deaths are not to be regretted."

"As for the subsequent incidents, it was Leonard, Mark, and others who went looking for trouble."

Director He also advised.

In their view, if they could reconcile with the vampiric zombie, that would be the best outcome.

After all, Zhenyuan was severely injured at this moment, and how much power he retained was uncertain.

If this carried on, their side surely wouldn’t last.

In that case, everyone would die here together.

But choosing reconciliation meant a win-win situation.

They could save their own lives and also preserve Zhenyuan’s old life.

As the saying goes, "As long as there’s life, there’s hope."

If Zhenyuan teamed up with Xiao Yan in the future, perhaps they could eliminate this demon!

Upon hearing these words, the girl in the red dress slightly nodded, "Some of you are indeed smart."

"Unlike someone else, who’s too old to think straight."

"Demon, today I vow to destroy you utterly!"

Zhenyuan, filled with fury, shouted with glaring eyes and hair standing on end.

"Old Daoist, there’s only one chance for reconciliation!"

"If you persist in your ignorance, then at the cost of my severe injury, I will refine you all into blood slaves within the array!"

The girl’s eyes flashed with a cold gleam, murderous intent rising.

"Miss, we are willing to reconcile!"

Director He quickly interjected.

Group Leader Qi, wiping sweat from his forehead, softly urged, "Old Daoist, there’s no need to dwell on this moment!"

"Yes, Old Daoist, let’s reconcile!"

Other members of the Dragon Country investigation team also chimed in.

Compared to their lives, nothing else mattered anymore.

As for Zhenyuan’s "Righteousness and evil have never stood together," it seemed like a joke in this era.

Gazing at the eager eyes of the crowd longing for survival, Zhenyuan finally conceded.

"Sigh!"

He sighed deeply, feeling dispirited, "Alright! Alright!"

"Since everyone wants to reconcile, then I won’t obstruct."

He then turned to the girl in the red dress, speaking solemnly, "Demon, if we are to reconcile, we need to set three terms!"

"You must not harm innocent people again, or even if I risk my life, I will drag you down with me!"

Hearing this, Director He and the others felt a deep sense of admiration.

This old Daoist truly was the embodiment of justice!

For the promise he made in the past, he traveled across the country just to cure Qingfeng’s incurable disease.

And now, for people he didn’t even know, he was willing to sacrifice himself with the demon.

Such people were rare nowadays.

So everyone’s hearts were filled with a sense of respect.

"Old Daoist, I’ll say it again..."

"As long as they don’t provoke me, I can’t be bothered with these mortals."

"But if they insist on courting death, then they can’t blame me for having no mercy!"

The girl in the red dress said expressionlessly.

"Right, right, that’s good!"

"We can coexist peacefully, a win-win for everyone!"

Before Zhenyuan could speak, Director He immediately nodded in agreement.

After all, he planned not to get involved in this matter once he returned home.

If anyone wanted to court death, let them; it had nothing to do with him.

Everyone else seemed to share this idea, nodding in agreement.

Are you kidding?

Knowing the strength of this vampiric zombie, how could they possibly provoke it?

Doing so would practically be suicide!

To court death would truly mean death!

"I hope you mortals can keep your promises!"

The girl in the red dress vanished in a flicker, leaving only her ethereal and pleasant voice lingering.

"Old Daoist, she..."

Director He was about to speak when he suddenly noticed the red light around them rapidly receding.

In the blink of an eye, everyone had exited the array and returned to the real world.

Though the mountains and fields were littered with corpses and the air reeked of blood,

they finally escaped that terrifying array!

Looking at the lush forest far ahead, they all felt as if they had been reborn.

"Wah wah wah... This is great! This is great!"

"We finally got out; I want to go home!"

"I’m never coming back again!"

"I miss my mom’s dumplings."

"We finally survived! We finally survived!"

Members of the Dragon Country investigation team wept with joy.

Meanwhile, Henderson and others were completely bewildered.

They didn’t know what had happened.

They only saw the girl in the red dress appear, exchange a few words with the Dragon Country people, and then release them.

"Could this vampiric monster truly have ties to Dragon Country?"

Henderson secretly speculated in his mind.

Others seemed less concerned, elated to have regained life.

Even with bodies and foul blood all around, it didn’t dampen their screams and shouts.

"Old Daoist, has she left?"

Director He curiously asked.

"She should be gone!"

"I can’t sense her aura anymore."

Zhenyuan said solemnly, "We shouldn’t linger here for long; let’s hurry and leave!"

Upon hearing this, Director He and the others quickly nodded.

Now was not the time to celebrate, only when they truly returned to the park would they feel relatively safe...
