Her destiny stolen? The Divine Witch Ancestor has returned!

Chapter 7 One Unlucky Chosen One

"Heaven and Earth decree: Clarity and purity prevail. Disperse!"

Wu Zhao pointed at the small paper figure with one hand, and as soon as she finished speaking, the black stains on the paper figure began to gradually fade away.

Finally, it was restored to its original white color.

The little paper figure seemed to have recovered as well, standing up from her palm and twisting as if to express its gratitude.

Returning the lively little creature to Huo Tingchen, Wu Zhao instructed, "Keep a close eye on the little paper doll's condition. I just added another layer of talisman to it, which can help you withstand one fatal blow."

"The dark aura on your face hasn't completely dissipated yet, so don't leave before I set sail. Also, try to avoid going to that old house if possible."

"Big evil!"

"Oh, and could you also prepare some yellow paper and cinnabar for me? I'll draw some talismans to carry with me, just in case," Wu Zhao added.

Huo Tingchen nodded, holding the small paper figure: "Okay, I understand."

Seeing that he was safe and sound, Gu Chen was somewhat relieved. He looked at Wu Zhao and said, "Thank you."

Luckily, I managed to extract quite a bit of purple energy from him earlier, otherwise I really wouldn't have been able to handle that thing.

Wu Zhao also breathed a sigh of relief: "Luckily, we found out early. You're always surrounded by..."

The crisis is imminent!

Feeling the weight of his responsibility, Wu Zhao took a deep breath.

She must recover her strength quickly, otherwise if she can't handle such a dangerous situation next time, wouldn't that ruin her own reputation?

"I hope Miss Wu will take good care of me." Gu Chen said, as if he knew what she was going to say.

"If you need anything, Miss Wu, please just let me know."

After thinking for a moment, Wu Zhao, who didn't have any immediate needs, shook her head: "I don't have any needs, and you shouldn't call me Miss Wu anymore, it sounds weird."

"Then how should I address you?" Gu Chen asked, looking up.

"Call me the Divine Shaman!" Wu Zhao almost blurted out, but choked back his words after realizing what he'd said.

A rumbling thunder could be heard in my ears, as if someone was protesting.

Wu Zhao almost rolled his eyes.

Dog Heavenly Dao knew it was time to lash out. Someone was coveting your imperial star luck and destiny, so why didn't you strike the culprit dead with lightning?

After hesitating for a moment, she replied, "...Never mind, just call me Zhaozhao."

That's what her relatives and friends called her a long time ago.

"Okay." Gu Chen smiled and said softly, "Zhaozhao."

……

Two days later.

high seas.

"啕——"

"Cough cough cough-"

"Waaah—Ancestor of the Divine Shaman, I, your grandson, have never suffered like this before!"

Wu Zhao stared speechlessly at the person in front of him who was vomiting so violently that he was practically fainting. His lips twitched.

It was none other than Wu Xingyun, the one who had taken her away from the Shen family!

The invitations from Earl of the Night, the master of Pearl Island, are only sent to the wealthy and powerful, and the Wu family, as one of the three top wealthy families in the capital, is naturally among them.

So on her first day on the cruise ship, she saw Wu Xingyun.

Wu Xingyun felt a natural affinity for Wu Zhao. After learning that she and Gu Chen were staying in a luxurious suite, Wu Xingyun decisively chose the room next to theirs.

They said they hoped to have more interaction with Wu Zhao before arriving at Pearl Island, and also to find out what the Wu tribe totem on Wu Zhao's arm was all about.

Unfortunately, before the plan could be implemented, he was knocked down by the waves.

No one expected that this tall and strong man would get seasick!

After vomiting for two days straight and looking pale, Wu Xingyun was now vomiting violently while hugging a trash can.

He was feeling extremely unwell and had barely eaten anything except water for the past two days. However, he continued to vomit, and he never expected such a severe reaction.

Wu Xingyun pitifully ran to Wu Zhao to complain, almost crying while clinging to Wu Zhao's leg.

At this moment, Gu Chen was in the inner room discussing something with Huo Tingchen, while she sat outside watching Wu Xingyun.

Wu Zhao sighed in disgust, cracked her knuckles, and pulled out the yellow paper that Huo Tingchen had prepared for her from her backpack.

Since he keeps calling me "Ancestor," we can't just ignore him.

Fortunately, in addition to the drawn talismans, she also brought some unused ones.

After lighting the drawn talisman, she put it into a water glass and handed it to Wu Xingyun: "Drink it, and you won't feel dizzy anymore."

"Ugh—" After swallowing the talisman water in one gulp, Wu Xingyun finally felt a little better and looked at her with teary eyes.

"Thank you so much, why didn't you save me sooner..."

Could she say that she used up all the spiritual energy she had painstakingly gathered by exorcising the dark energy from Huo Tingchen's paper doll, which is why the talisman is no longer working now?

Somewhat guilty, Wu Zhao said without changing his expression, "This is a test for you. It seems you still need more practice."

"...This works? Okay, I'll try my best."

The naive and easily deceived Wu Xingyun took a deep breath and made a promise, then took the trash can and went out to take out the trash.

What a silly boy.

Wu Zhao smiled, a hint of doting in his eyes.

She was studying the menu in her hand when a string of tadpole-like characters in front of her made her dizzy.

I stood up and went to the next room to take a look. I found that Gu Chen had not yet ended his call, so I had to give up my plan to order food for the time being.

I was originally going to wait for Wu Xingyun to come back so he could make it, but suddenly I heard a commotion outside.

"Are just anyone allowed on the island now?! Where did this clueless poor person come from? What bad luck!"

"Grab that brat! He dared to get my clothes dirty. I'll make him eat what he spat out!"

With a loud bang, the hatch was pushed open forcefully.

Wu Zhao stood at the cabin door, his murderous aura fixed on Wu Xingyun, who was being held by several people, as he was about to be shoved into the trash can.

"Let's see who dares!"

Having been seasick for two days, Wu Xingyun looked rather unsightly with his scraggly beard. Coupled with his stomach upset and lack of food, he was indeed in a sorry state.

He was dizzy and struggling to break free, looking helplessly at Wu Zhao.

"What a lousy guy!" Wu Zhao sighed, rubbing his forehead.

The cruise ship had entered international waters, and the temperature at sea was rather hot. Most of the people on deck were wearing thin short-sleeved shirts, and some were even wearing revealing swimsuits.

Wu Zhao was quite shocked when he first saw it, but fortunately he has now accepted the openness of the modern world.

So when she saw the man in front of her, wearing shorts and sunglasses and looking impatient, she was able to remain calm.

"Oh, a beauty actually came to save this good-for-nothing!" The man in sunglasses took off his sunglasses, revealing a pair of lustful eyes swollen like light bulbs.

"This spineless coward is not worthy of such a beautiful woman. Why don't you come with me and I'll guarantee you a life of luxury!"

Huh? Wu Zhao looked at the man and couldn't quite believe it.

He... he seems to have some kind of kinship with Gu Chen!

Thinking of Gu Chen's noble and handsome face, which seemed otherworldly, and then looking at the swollen, ugly face in front of him, ruined by wine and women.

Wu Zhao was somewhat shocked.

Gu Jiaping stared at Wu Zhao with lustful eyes, and when she didn't speak, he walked over and put his arm around the beauty's waist.

Wu Zhao wore a fitted Chinese cheongsam today, which accentuated her slender waist.

Just as I was imagining that soft feel, a sudden, sharp pain shot through my elbow.

"Ah!—" Gu Jiaping abruptly pulled his hand back, glaring at Wu Zhao: "You dare hit me?"

Shaking his hand, Wu Zhao calmly said, "Next time it won't be as simple as just a little pain."

"You bitch, you don't know what's good for you. Grab her, I'll make her kneel on the ground and beg for mercy!"

After shaking off Wu Xingyun, the two men rushed towards Wu Zhao, trying to catch her.

Unexpectedly, Wu Zhao stood still, took out two talismans, and threw them out. The two light talismans seemed to have eyes and stuck to the two men with a slap.

The two of them froze in place, unable to move.

She knows mystical arts?!

Seeing the bodyguard frozen in place, Gu Jiaping was startled and shouted, "Who are you?! Don't do anything rash! I know the Wu family of the capital. If you dare touch me, the Wu family won't let you get away with it!"

Damn it, didn't that woman Shen Jiaojiao say there were no other mystical practitioners on this ship besides Wu Xingyun?!

"She dares to lie to me?!" Gu Jiaping thought to himself, "This is bad."

Wu Zhao, who stood with his arms crossed, raised an eyebrow and smiled: "You said you know the Wu family?"

Knowing the Wu family, yet not recognizing Wu Xingyun?

She glanced at Wu Xingyun, who was staggering to his feet, and her lips twitched.

If possible, she wouldn't really want to get to know this person.

This is so embarrassing! Wu Zhao wanted to cover her face.

Thinking that the name of the Wu family had intimidated her, Gu Jiaping forced a smile and said, "Of course, I am a member of the Gu family of the capital! Do you know the Gu family? We are the Gu family that are related to the Gu family of the capital by marriage!"

"If you dare lay a finger on me, the Gu family will make you pay!"

Is that so? Wu Zhao seemed to hear the sound of a wheelchair rolling. She put away the talisman in her hand and turned around to look.

The man who brought the wheelchair over was still wearing a clean and sharp suit, and his expression was unreadable.

Amid Gu Jiaping's increasingly terrified gaze, Gu Chen's cold and emotionless voice rang out.

"Let me hear your plan to make her look bad."
