Chapter 676 Survival Impossible, Death Unattainable
"Is it true? Really? You're not joking, right?"
The owner of the steamed bun shop couldn't believe it. After checking Ivy's account, he discovered that she was indeed the owner of the Blue Speckled Snake, "Madame Ivy," and became extremely excited.
He personally wrote down the name "Ruby" and eagerly said, "Madame Ivy, the competition starts promptly at eight o'clock tonight. You must bring Ruby with you!"
This snake is a internet sensation!
Having an internet celebrity join the food eating competition will definitely make it even more popular.
After Alexander and Ivy nodded in agreement, they both got into the luxury car.
The owner of the steamed bun shop knew that he was going to make a fortune tonight. He immediately instructed the staff to work harder and make more buns. He believed that no matter how many buns they made today, there would still be not enough to meet the demand.
Not long after the advertisement was released, two girls wearing hats came to sign up for the competition.
These two women were none other than Kayla and Emily.
They came here to participate in the competition, not only for the million-dollar prize, but also for the opportunity to meet the divine physician after winning and cure their hair loss problems.
The two of them had caused a scene at Ivy's wedding and were severely punished by Ivy, resulting in their hair loss.
They initially thought that their hair would grow back soon, but unexpectedly, their hair seemed to have gone extinct and would never grow again!
During these days, Kayla and Emily tried various ways to raise money. They spent a lot of money on trying to find famous doctors to treat their hair, but with no effect.
They heard that the winner of the food eating competition would have the opportunity to meet the divine physician, so they immediately came to sign up.
Little did they know, this so-called divine physician was Ivy herself?
...
In a stench-filled sewer.
An elderly lady with a half-bald, ugly face sat on a rock in the foul water, lonely and sorrowful.
She was Scarlett, the young miss of the Ross family from over twenty years ago and Ivy's biological mother.
This abandoned sewer was Scarlett's only refuge, where she had been staying for over twenty years.
Whenever she thought of the face of that girl just now, Scarlett couldn't help but burst into tears.
That face, it looked exactly like her when she was young. If she wasn't her daughter, then who else could she be?
"Daughter, I'm sorry... It's not that mom doesn't want to recognize you, but I can't. If I recognize you, you..." *sob*...
Scarlett couldn't stop crying, saying, "Daughter, you must not understand why mom doesn't recognize you. Mom really wants to tell you the truth, but I can't, can't recognize you. Mommy wants you to live, wants both you and your sister to live well..."
Just then, a black smoke suddenly appeared in the sewer.
The black smoke fell onto the water's surface and transformed into the form of Isadora.
This was Isadora's spirit. She had been set on fire and killed by Scarlett all those years ago. Filled with immense resentment, she had turned into a vengeful ghost, tormenting Scarlett every night.
Isadora's spirit knew about Scarlett's two daughters...
The daughter is still alive, but I don't know who these two daughters are, so I tormented Scarlett in every possible way, wanting to know the truth from her mouth.
"Scarlett, have you seen your two daughters? Otherwise, why would you be crying?" The expression on Isadora's face was fierce. "Tell me immediately, what are their names? Where do they live? I want to burn them alive, burn them immediately! To relieve my deep-seated hatred!"
Scarlett shook her head and cried, "I haven't seen them. I just miss them. I've told you before, I don't know who adopted them, and it's been over 20 years now. How could I even recognize them? Even if they appeared in front of me, I wouldn't be able to recognize them..."
"Lies! You're lying to me, and you will pay the price for it!"
Enraged, Isadora opened her mouth and a scorching flame burst out, landing on Scarlett's face.
"Ah..." Scarlett cried out in pain.
The flames sizzled on her skin, but no matter how Scarlett tried to extinguish them, she couldn't put out the fire.
"Hahaha, this is the terrifying ghost fire that I just mastered. You can't extinguish it!" Isadora laughed maniacally. "Scarlett, let me tell you, this ghost fire is a hundred times stronger than ordinary fire. You can feel the burning pain, but you won't see any burn marks. It will make you long for death but unable to die!
Quickly tell me the names and whereabouts of your daughters, otherwise, I will let this ghost fire burn you all night long!"
