Otherworldly Affairs Office-Chapter 737 Yao Xuefang Goes Crazy (Please Subscribe)

Under Gu Shenghui's strict orders, Pei Yan had to suppress the joy in his heart, hastily washed up, and returned to his room to rest. The moment his head touched the pillow, he could no longer resist the waves of drowsiness and soon fell asleep.

When Pei Yan woke again, it was already the next day at noon. Feeling refreshed after such a good sleep, he quickly washed his face, had lunch in a hurry, and then ran straight to Gu Shenghui's room, pleading with the newly arrived Yao Xuefang to hurry and conduct an examination on the last puppet.

Yao Xuefang was here for this very matter, so she did not refuse. Together with the others, she entered Pei Yan's space. Upon seeing the puppet that required her examination, she was momentarily stunned by its eerie aura, and then she cautiously approached, placing her hand on it.

Over ten minutes later, seeing Yao Xuefang with her hand on the puppet but unresponsive, Pei Yan leaned towards Gu Shenghui and quietly asked, "Gu Chu, I haven't asked, what is Yao Chu's superpower?"

"She's the Lu Ban amongst the exceptional talents, using her abilities to modify alchemical equipment produced across major planes. Most of the equipment in the hall, like the interpreter you use, the confinement ring, and the storage ring, are her contributions. Regarding these mechanical puppets, she can see things we cannot. Actually, if it weren't for the puppets you captured, giving them to her would have been the best choice for the hall." Gu Shenghui turned his head and explained with a smile.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known, I would have left one for the hall to research." Pei Yan said regretfully after listening.

"No worries, priorities matter. Enhancing your strength is the current priority, other things can wait."

While the two were speaking, Yao Xuefang, who was conducting the examination, finally reacted. Seemingly discovering the problem, she lifted her hand and circled the puppet twice, hesitated, but eventually placed her hand back on it. This time, she didn't keep everyone waiting for long. Within a few minutes, Pei Yan saw beads of sweat the size of beans cascading down her forehead, her facial expression twisting to reveal a look of agonizing struggle.

"Yao Chu, what's wrong? If something's wrong, stop examining it!" Pei Yan, not daring to forcefully interrupt, jumped in front of her and softly called out.

Elder Lin, who also noticed something was wrong, stepped forward and urged, "Xiaoyao, stop quickly! Don't…"

Before Elder Lin could finish speaking, Yao Xuefang had a problem, screamed miserably, spat out a mouthful of blood, and then her body went limp, falling backward. Gu Shenghui, seeing this, his eyes immediately turned red, stepped forward in one stride, caught her in his arms, and urgently called out, "Chiffon, what's wrong? What happened?"

At this moment, Elder Lin arrived, placing his hand on Yao Xuefang's wrist. Under the anxious gaze of everyone, he injected source energy to investigate what went wrong, but before he could conclude, Yao Xuefang suddenly opened her tightly closed eyes. Her eyes revealed a fierce murderous intent, she pushed away Elder Lin, who was diagnosing her pulse, and then lunged at Gu Shenghui, who was holding her, extending her hands towards his throat and grasping it tightly.

"Uh, Chiffon! What's wrong! I am Gu Shenghui!" Gu Shenghui, being strangled by her, looked in shock at Yao Xuefang's sweet and charming face that always smiled at him, now twisted and horrifying. Heartbreak and confusion made him forget his own pain. He stared at her, bewildered and panicked.

While Gu Shenghui was stunned, others were not. Yao Xuefang was exerting lethal strength; if she continued pressing down, Gu Shenghui would have suffocated. It's unbelievable for a Tier Eight superpower user to be strangled by a woman. Immediately, Dong Shigang and Mei Simiao stepped forward, one on each side, lifting Yao Xuefang's arms, starting to pull her away. Yet, after a few pulls, they couldn't move her. Dong Shigang immediately grew anxious and exclaimed, "How come Xiaoyao has such strength, is this from deep animosity? Born from love turned hate? This is strangling Old Gu to death!"

"Is there time for sarcastic remarks? Pull her away quickly, or someone really will die!" Adjacent, Mei Simiao shouted angrily.

Can two big men who are also superpower users not pull away one woman? Of course, they can, but using force would inevitably hurt Yao Xuefang. Fearing harm, they held back, causing the stalemate to last this long. But now, seeing Gu Shenghui's face turning purple, they had to make a tough decision. Each grabbed Yao Xuefang's arms with one hand, and her hand clutching Gu Shenghui's neck with the other, prying it away forcefully, only to hear a crisp snap of a bone fracturing, and her two fingers twisted aside, releasing her grip as she was lifted by the two.

Gu Shenghui, who fell to the ground gasping heavily for fresh air, paid no mind to his disheveled state. Meanwhile, Yao Xuefang, now restrained, thrashed like a mad tiger. Even when held by two strong men, she didn't stay quiet, kicking wildly with her legs. Poor Dong and Mei received quite a few solid kicks.

"Hey, hey! Loosen your bite! Ah, do you belong to a dog? Why are you biting too!" Dong Shigang exclaimed while in pain from his bitten arm, looking at the situation helplessly. If he used his superpower, making his muscles as strong as steel, he wouldn't fear the bite, but doing so would certainly break her teeth. As colleagues, he couldn't bear that, so he endured the pain, seeking help from his companion.

No time for dignity, Pei Yan moved in to restrain Yao Xuefang's left leg, Liu Xuan held her right leg, and with four people each controlling a limb, they forcefully subdued the raging Yao Xuefang. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

At this point, Gu Shenghui, rubbing his neck imprinted with deep finger marks, got up with a roll and rushed over together with Elder Lin. Watching Yao Xuefang, still frenzied, he sorrowfully asked, "Elder Lin, what exactly happened?"

Elder Lin didn't reply, kneeling down, placing his hand on Yao Xuefang's restrained wrist, and after a moment, he lifted his hand, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said in distress, "Trouble, serious trouble! Her meridians are chaotic, but that's not the root of her madness; it's her soul that's affected." Speaking, Elder Lin turned to look at the mechanical puppet behind them with a gloomy face, "The problem lies with that puppet. Despite all precautions, we still fell into the enemy's trap. Greed is to blame, alas!"

"It's all my fault, Elder Lin, what should we do now? Think of a way quickly!" Clinging to Yao Xuefang's leg, Pei Yan, tormented by guilt for Yao Xuefang's condition arising from his thirst for power, pleaded, heart-wrenching and self-reproaching.

Elder Lin had no time to console the agitated Pei Yan, and looking at the crazed Yao Xuefang, he solemnly said, "I have no effective method for the soul. I can only try to soothe her by regulating her meridians. Xiaogu, go find Old Zuo to assist me."
