Chapter 203: Thrown into the Alchemy Furnace

In Reese's room
Mary pushed the door open and saw Ruan Zhao tied to the head of the bed.
Of course, Ruan Zhao tied himself up.
Seeing Mary come in, Ruan Zhao was startled and asked in panic. "Who... who are you?"
In fact, Ruan Zhao had already recognized him. He was one of the two blond men next to Reese.
Ruan Zhao pretended to be frightened and carefully observed the man's face, and then he found a thin red line under the end of his eyebrow.
No wonder she didn't find this person at the first time. It turned out that this person used someone else's body and specially cleaned up the traces.
It’s the evil magic of Country F again.
It seems that this person is the one who helped Reese set up the soul-locking formation.
Mary looked around the room and didn't see Reese, so she walked up to Ruan Zhao.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he spoke fluent Chinese, even better than that Reese.
"Where's Reese?"
Ruan Zhao shook his head, "I don't know."
Mary narrowed her eyes and took two steps closer to Ruan Zhao.
He glanced at her bound hands, then suddenly bent down and sniffed her, but he didn't smell any mystical scent.
Ma Rui's expression froze, and he stared at Ruan Zhao and asked tentatively, "Why do you have spiritual energy?"
Ruan Zhao looked confused and kept shaking his head. "I don't know what you're talking about. My boyfriend is still waiting for me. Can you let me out?"
Mary looked carefully at Ruan Zhao's expression and found that she did not seem to be lying, but she did not completely believe her.
After a pause, Mary actually nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll take you to meet your boyfriend."
As he said that, he stepped forward and untied the rope that tied up Ruan Zhao.
Ruan Zhao was freed and quickly thanked him with joy. "Thank you."
After saying that, Ruan Zhao jumped out of bed anxiously and ran out.
But before she could take a step, Mary slapped her from behind.
Ruan Zhao felt the palm wind coming from behind, his eyes flashed, and he quickly dodged to the side, while throwing a talisman to Marie.

After being frozen by Ruan Zhao, Mary's face was filled with shock.
He is indeed a mystic!
But he soon reacted, and his soul left the body and fled out quickly.
Ruan Zhao didn't expect that he didn't even want his physical body. Seeing that he was about to escape, he stepped forward, grabbed his feet, and pulled him back.
"Who are you?"
Mary didn't expect that even though he was in soul form, she could still touch him directly.
"Guess what." Ruan Zhao smiled evilly, grabbed his foot and swung it around, then threw him hard to the ground.
Mary's expression was distorted with pain. It was the first time he realized that the pain of the soul was even stronger than the pain of the physical body.
Ruan Zhao was not finished yet. She quickly drew a soul-destroying spell on her palm and raised her hand to hit Mary.
The burning pain was approaching. After sensing the danger, Mary was so frightened that she quickly begged for mercy. "No! Don't kill me. I will tell you everything you want to know!"
Ruan Zhao stopped moving and stared at Mary and asked, "Okay, then tell me, who asked you to come here and harm the Chinese people?"
After hearing this, Mary didn't dare to answer. Ruan Zhao sneered at him and cast the soul-destroying curse in his hand at him again.
Faced with life and death, Mary closed her eyes with a determined heart and spoke out loudly, "It's Chris."
Ruan Zhao paused again, her eyes narrowed, and she continued to ask. "Explain it more clearly."
Mary clenched her fists, took a deep breath, and finally, resigned to her fate, told Chris's identity and background as well as some details of her cooperation with Chen Yuteng.
It turned out that on the surface, Reese and Chen Yuteng were jointly conducting the transaction, but in fact, everything here was designed by Chen Yuteng and Chris in collusion.
Reese is just a pawn they put in the open to do their work.
And this Marie is also Chris's lackey. In addition to supervising Reese, he is also the one who is truly responsible for promoting the implementation of these plans.
"I have told you the truth. Can you let me go?" Mary asked Ruan Zhao timidly.
Ruan Zhao came back to his senses, looked down at Mary and smiled. "Okay."
As he said this, Ruan Zhao actually retracted the Soul-Destroying Curse.
Just as Mary was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Ruan Zhao grabbed him and teleported him into their alchemy room.
Mary was shocked by her action.
However, what shocked him even more was yet to come.
Ruan Zhao directly opened the lid of the alchemy furnace and threw him in before he could react.
"Don't you like refining medicine? Now you can try the feeling of refining medicine in the furnace yourself."
Ma Rui felt an unprecedented sense of fear. He wanted to escape from the alchemy furnace, but found that he could not escape at all. He was so scared that he kept shouting inside. "Let me out!"
Ruan Zhao ignored him and turned around to release all the residual souls locked in his body.
Because their souls were incomplete, they became extremely terrifying and filled with resentment. The moment they were released, they all turned into evil spirits.
After smelling Mary's breath, they all got into the alchemy furnace without Ruan Zhao doing anything.
Soon, Mary's painful screams were heard from inside.
After Mary's voice completely disappeared, Ruan Zhao summoned the ghost soldiers and brought the souls of these people back to the underworld.
After dealing with Marie, Ruan Zhao teleported back to Reese's room, then used a psychedelic talisman to transform himself into Marie's appearance and walked out.
Lu Yan should be arriving soon. In order to reduce casualties, she has to get rid of the sniper here first.

the other side
When Xiao Jing was sent out by Chen Yuteng on the pretext of delivering something, he realized that something was wrong.
He finished the tasks assigned by Chen Yuteng as quickly as possible and then hurried back.
Chen Yuteng was sitting in the room drinking tea. When he saw Xiao Jing coming back, he subconsciously felt guilty for a moment, "Is it done?"
"Yeah." Xiao Jing nodded and walked towards his room.
Chen Yuteng hurriedly stopped him, "Jing, come with me to meet someone first."
Xiao Jing paused, feeling a little annoyed, but still followed Chen Yuteng out.

But as soon as the two walked out of the house, they heard a burst of gunfire coming from the woods in the distance.
The people guarding the surroundings immediately became alert, and a group of them ran towards the place where the gunshots were heard.
Chen Yuteng's eyes tightened, realizing something was wrong, and he immediately shouted to Xiao Jing, "Go get someone!"
Xiao Jing reacted quickly, turned around and ran out.
But Chen Yuteng retreated back into the house.

In the woods, Ruan Zhao used a talisman to immobilize several snipers in a row. Everything was going well.
Unexpectedly, one of the snipers went to urinate temporarily. When he came back, he found that his companion had been killed and immediately realized that something was wrong.
These snipers were all strictly trained and quickly found Ruan Zhao who had transformed into Marie.
But the distance was too far, so the man couldn't see Mary clearly. He could only see that she was wearing their own clothes.
When Ruan Zhao was dealing with the next sniper, the man shot directly at Ruan Zhao. Fortunately, Ruan Zhao reacted quickly and dodged, but he also exposed himself.
Seeing that he had been discovered, Ruan Zhao reacted quickly. He took out the hair he found in the gecko's room, used a psychedelic talisman to transform himself into the appearance of a gecko, and then deliberately ran towards the man.
After making sure that the man could see him clearly, Ruan Zhao took advantage of the opportunity to hide behind a tree and used the teleportation talisman to disappear from the spot.
