Chapter 371 You Better Be Prepared
As Simone had anticipated, things deviated from the original plan.
Only halfway through the drive, she sensed several intense waves of negative energy nearby, indicating an ambush using negative energy artifacts.
Simone’s expression turned cold, recognizing that these people had no moral scruples and were solely focused on dealing with her.
To avoid potential accidents or fatalities from contaminated passing cars, she veered the car onto a small road.
No wonder her master had mentioned the concealed dark corners within the géomancy association.
Simone parked the car at the entrance of a forest, stepped out with her bag, and held the knife coins she had purchased earlier, along with the negative energy seal infused by her
master.
As she rested against the car door, she declared, “You may come out. There’s no need to hide.
Several people emerged from the forest, and two cars followed, coming to a halt in front of her.
Simone counted a total of seven people.
She raised her eyebrow.
Upon observing that the seven people belonged to four different groups and were suspicious of each other, Simone cynically remarked, “You guys aren’t working together. Are you planning to rob me and then divide the spoils?”
One middle-aged man responded, “You don’t have to worry about that. If you hand over the items, we’ll spare your life.”
He was afraid that if he clashed with Simone, others would benefit from their conflict.
The other six people nodded in agreement. “Yes
Simone sneered, “If you want the items, you’ll have to prove yourselves. It’s a joke to expect me to hand them over willingly. You may use whatever means you have. No need to come one by one; it’s troublesome for me to deal with. You can all come at once.”
The strength of these people was only at the initial stage, making it easy for Simone to deal with them.
1/4
The seven people laughed at her confidence. “Young lady, you’re quite bold for your age. Since you’re adamant, we won’t show any restraint. Let’s collectively strike. The one who secures the items first will be the victor.”
Without hesitation, the seven attacked Simone with their negative energy mystical tool.
The seven streams of negative energy merged together, forming a powerful malevolent force.
Simone remained expressionless as she activated the negative energy within her knife coins, pointing at the malevolent force they unleashed,
“Break!”
The seven people were shocked as they witnessed a hurricane-like malevolent force burst. forth from Simone’s knife coins.
And it surged forth, dissipating the powerful malevolent force that had bound them together.
She then formed hand seals, directing the hurricane of negative energy toward them.
“Run!” Those seven people were startled. They quickly turned to flee from the range of the hurricane.
But they were not as swift as the hurricane.
One by one, they were all lifted half a meter off the ground by the hurricane’s negative energy and then fell back down.
Each of their faces displayed fear and disbelief.
“How is this possible? How can you be so strong?” Their combined efforts were all thwarted. by her.
Simone put away her blade coins and coldly remarked, “A bunch of useless people. How dare you try to snatch the treasure with this level of strength? How embarrassing.”
She drove
away
and left the seven people behind. Their faces were marked by fear and shock.
These troublemakers, who had caused distress for others in the past, were now facing retribution through the negative energy hurricane, resulting in severe illness for each of them.
They no longer possessed the energy to inflict harm on others.
These few individuals were mere pawns. They were easily dealt with.

However, as Simone continued on her way, she encountered people blocking her path, each group stronger than the previous.
Despite their strength, she countered them using similar methods and the talismans she had prepared earlier.
When Simone was almost at the airport, the car suddenly began circling in place.
She sensed the presence of two people nearby who had set up a formation based on the information passed on by the previous group.
Upon exiting the car, Simone found herself in a scene resembling a world of corpses and blood, filled with dense malevolent and bloody energy.
Ghostly creatures rushed toward her to attack.
Calmly, Simone took out jade carved and prepared for the formation, throwing them in seven different directions.
She quickly formed a simple Big Dipper formation, using the seal as the core and the knife coins as auxiliary tools.
As the ghostly creatures closed in, she uttered, “Annihilate!”
Golden dots of light appeared, forming the shape of the Big Dipper and scattering toward the creatures to annihilate them.
The surroundings returned to normal, and the two people who had set up the formation looked at each other in disbelief.
They exclaimed, “How is this possible?”
Their master had given them these formations and tools with the power of their master’s blessings.
They had orchestrated similar traps in numerous instances, ensnaring geomancy masters at the complete unity stage to their demise.
However, Simone broke the formation quickly, suggesting that the informant had underestimated her strength.
The two regained composure, each holding their mystical tool with negative energy to attack Simone.
Their master had ordered them to obtain Simone’s belongings today and ensure she was seriously injured. Otherwise, they would be the ones to suffer.
3/4
Simone manipulated the Big Dipper formation to entangle the two in a sea of corpses.
Panic set in as threads of negative energy penetrated their bodies and shattered the mystical energy tool they held.
The formation flag hidden by one of them was also corroded by negative energy.
A force emerged from the flag, heading toward Simone.
Simone was well-prepared. She retaliated by using the negative energy stored in her seal.
The formation flag was crafted by the opponent, and coupled with the failed attack on Simone, it backfired directly.
The assailant swiftly withdrew the power of the spell.
Simone also pushed back a few steps by the opponent’s force and utilized the negative energy to transmit a message. “You despicable creature lurking in the shadows; this time, I will backfire on you again. Let’s see how long you can hide.”
Suddenly, a blurry and angry male voice echoed in her ears. “You better be prepared.”
