Chapter 201: Chapter 201 The Seriously Injured Master Chapter 201: Chapter 201 The Seriously Injured Master Miles away, in an exquisitely made courtyard.
An elder sat on a ditation cushion, his eyes tightly closed.
The room he was in had a unique structure, entirely constructed of solid wood, devoid of any tal.
Bamboo walls were plastered with various talismans, outlined in cinnabar with shapes incomprehensible to the average person.
Were Yue Qingqing here, she would certainly scoff at these.
They looked imposing, but truly effective talismans were one in ten at best.
Most were sheer Shost Painting Talismans.
But the two young n kneeling respectfully in front of the elder thought differently.
One of the youths cautiously raised his head and placed a passbook on the small red sandalwood table in front of the elder.
“Master, this is the gratitude my father instructed to convey to you, it was all thanks to your assistance that the Chu Family could survive this calamity.”
The elder didn’t respond, and the youth’s deanor beca even more humble.
But just then, the elder’s body swayed, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
The surrounding talisman papers rustled.
A few of them suddenly brightened before swiftly turning to ashes and dissipating in the air.
The two young n in front of him were startled.
But they noticed that the blood that fell on the floor turned from red to black, hissing as if it were corrosive.
“Master!”
Forgetting their forr reverence, the two reached out to help the elder.
The elder abruptly opened his eyes, his pupils filled with shock.
Soone powerful had broken his Curse Technique and even used it as a lead to destroy his Cultivation Base.
Fortunately, he was in his own den today, with barriers set up around him that dispelled most of the attack.
But even the remnants had left him significantly injured.
The elder waved his sleeve, signaling the two young n to leave, without offering any explanation.
Not daring to ask further, they bowed even more deeply and backed out of the hut.
After they left, the elder coughed repeatedly, blood forming a thread as it dribbled down the corner of his mouth onto the floor.
“These are the consequences of matters from decades ago… how could they bear such fruit…”
The elder was both angry and frustrated, muttering to himself before fear filled his heart.
“Exactly which old monster took action? That woman clearly said that the poor relative left in the countryside would never make any waves in their lifeti.”
However, the person who had been cursed seed to have a profound blessing, and the notion of Qi Fortune was ultimately elusive.
Although the elder considered himself to be a master of the current world, he believed there is always soone better, sothing beyond the known.
Just who the old monster was or what relation they had with the cursed person, if they decided to intervene in this karma, he feared he would suffer a terrible fate.
The elder’s gaze flickered and after a mont, he shook a wooden bell on the table beside him.
Soon, a robust middle-aged man entered the house from outside.
The elder slowly said, “Go and notify those families, ask them to help investigate the close relatives of Lin Jianping, rember, blood relatives.”
This was the first ti the middle-aged man saw Master Gong so solemn.
Moreover, the ‘families’ he referred to were powerful clans in Beijing.
Lin Jianping was just a rather successful businessman in the ordinary world; why was Master Gong exerting so much effort for this?
Yet, not a word of this doubt dared he voice.
He simply bowed and, taking the order, went on his way.
Yue Qingqing was utterly unaware she was being targeted.
After all, in her eyes, the opposition was just a weakling who had barely touched the threshold of true cultivation.
The likelihood of tracing her through Spiritual Energy was practically non-existent.
Unknown to her, though her Cultivation Base seed insubstantial, in the mundane world, it was highly coveted.
Now, the issue she faced was Lin Chunju’s inquiry.
Since discovering that Lin Chunju had been borrowing Qi Fortune, it was the first ti that Yue Qingqing showed her beyond-mortal abilities in front of her grandmother.
At the ti, Lin Chunju’s mind was preoccupied with sothing else.
It wasn’t until later that she realized her granddaughter was more extraordinary than she had imagined.
Initially, she had thought the child might possess sothing like the Third Eye and so supernatural powers showcased on TV.
She hadn’t anticipated the trick Yue Qingqing revealed would be so startling.
Thus, her gaze had lingered on the little one for several days.
Eventually, Yue Qingqing couldn’t pretend to be oblivious anymore and obediently went into the kitchen before dinner.
Hoping for lenient treatnt after confessing.
After being fed a piece of braised pork, Yue Qingqing looked up at Lin Chunju.
“Grandma, whatever you want to ask, just ask directly,” she said.
