So braver individuals even stepped forward to take a closer look.
In the dim gray conditions, no one could clearly see the appearance of the person lying on the ground.
However, the sll of blood and the general scene of the person’s body lying on the ground with its head separated were still visible to them.
The people who stepped forward to check were so frightened by the sight that they stumbled back, and almost fell in their haste.
"Ahhh..."
Cries of shock rang out in succession.
The dead person was indeed the middle-aged man who had previously been kneeling on the ground begging for rcy, but unfortunately, his pleas failed.
Not a drop of the blood from his body was wasted—all of it spilled over the spot where the talisman paper was pasted.
The talisman paper imdiately emitted bursts of red light.
Even those who had not previously noticed anything amiss finally realized sothing was strange here.
Clearly, earlier they hadn’t noticed there was a talisman paper here at all.
"What’s... what’s going on here... why is there a talisman paper here?"
"Could it be that Lotus City not seeing the dawn is because of this talisman paper!"
"Damn! Who did this? How could soone be so insidious and vicious to do such a heinous thing!"
"If it weren’t for soone’s blood splattering on this talisman paper, we wouldn’t have noticed before. This is trying to keep us trapped here until we die!"
"Everyone, let’s take action and tear down these harmful things. The safety of Lotus City depends on us!"
...
People who were already anxious due to the current situation found an outlet when soone died and the talisman paper was discovered.
They completely disregarded the reasons behind it all.
So people lost their minds, not even fearing the dead, and, driven by a rush of adrenaline, went to tear the talisman paper.
The talisman paper, glowing red, flickered slightly, and the pattern on it clearly faded a lot.
If there were soone who understood even a little bit, they would definitely recognize that the talisman paper had been partially damaged.
But unfortunately, there was no one knowledgeable here, not even the Dark Masters who should have been watching over this place.
They, too, had left out of laziness, completely forgetting that their superiors had ordered them to keep an eye on these talisman papers.
The first person to rush up tried to yank off the talisman paper, but it still clung firmly to the wall.
As if the wall wouldn’t fall and the talisman paper wouldn’t co off.
"Hey, I won’t believe it, this damn talisman paper can’t be torn off."
The people rushing up were convinced that the reason Lotus City wasn’t seeing the dawn was because of these talisman papers.
They now saw themselves as the Saviors, acting as if fueled by adrenaline.
An old man lurking in the dark was very satisfied with the current scene.
He turned away and continued deeper into the darkness.
Yun Ran lay on a chair, eating fresh fruit while watching the stars in the sky.
Unfortunately, the space gap was obviously not a complete small world, and the stars in the sky were a truncated version.
It made Yun Ran a little frustrated, unable to deduce more things.
Suddenly, Yun Ran started coughing violently, as if she had accidentally choked while eating.
The Little Paperman’s expression changed imdiately upon hearing the cough.
However, its whole body was pitch black now, and besides Yun Ran, no one else could see the change in its expression.
"Master, what’s wrong with you?"
Yun Ran’s face turned red from coughing, and it took a while for her to recover.
"It’s no big deal. Soone inside Lotus City is using blood as a sacrifice, trying to destroy my talisman paper formation."
Yun Ran had long suspected soone was hiding inside Lotus City, hoping to reap the benefits.
Originally, relying on those suppressive talisman papers could completely suppress those wailing resentful spirits.
But unfortunately, because of her Life Chart, even High-level Talismans would be significantly weakened.
If soone else could draw such talisman papers, just pasting them at those specific street corners could ensure at least ten years of peace for Lotus City.
As they say, if the quality isn’t enough, make up for it with quantity.
Yun Ran drew countless talisman papers, and after the Little Paperman pasted them on those specific streets.
She also had Daoist Changshan find others to continue pasting them.
Those later talisman papers seed to have no effect, but they actually ford a vast talisman paper formation.
In this way, even if soone accurately breaks a few street corner talisman papers.
The entire talisman paper formation can still run steadily, keeping the wailing resentful spirits dazed while purifying them.
As long as the talisman paper formation runs long enough, those resentful spirits won’t even be able to consu human Essence Blood, let alone move.
Yun Ran made so many preparations, and under normal circumstances, as long as the people inside Lotus City stayed calm, they could win.
But now, on just the first day, so people already couldn’t sit still, and so were even rushing to be the knife.
Yun Ran cald down, and the Little Paperman imdiately brought water.
"Master, is there so trouble within Lotus City?"
The loyal child servant could guess so things without them being said.
"Yes, soone is using blood as a sacrifice, trying to break my talisman paper formation and release those suppressed resentful spirits.
And so people think that Lotus City not seeing dawn is caused by the talisman papers, and they are also helping that person, trying to tear off the talisman papers."
The Little Paperman, hearing this, was imdiately furious, almost cursing.
"Are those people crazy, running around outside causing trouble instead of staying at ho during this ti!
And what are those Dark Masters doing? Haven’t they noticed the effect of the talisman papers?
It’s unfortunate that you even had Daoist Changshan find those Dark Masters for help, and they’re all just making things worse!"
Perhaps because the previous cooperation with the Special Administration Bureau was quite pleasant.
The Little Paperman subconsciously compared these Dark Masters with the people from the Special Administration Bureau.
The comparison was stark—completely incomparable.
Yun Ran also sighed.
She had said before that if the people of Lotus City wanted to survive, they needed a fighting chance, but most importantly, they must have the will to survive and find ways to save themselves.
The human heart, in many cases, plays a decisive role.
An entire day passed, and yet no influential person in Lotus City stood up.
There was no one to reassure and organize the ordinary citizens to stay ho and not move around unnecessarily.
The Little Paperman, frustrated by their incompetence, exclaid, "It’s over, the people of Lotus City are dood!"
