Madam Hua, who was kneeling on the ground, looked up at Chu Yi without blinking.
The weather in the capital was clearly gloomy, but here, the sun was shining brightly, as if it was another world.
The resplendent sunlight gently shone on Chu Yi, giving him a golden halo.
His elegance seemed to be engraved in his bones, as if a god had descended to the mortal world. His presence made the surrounding air seem to have a refreshing bamboo fragrance.
Just by looking at him, Madam Hua felt that she had seen the light.
Madam Hua kowtowed to Chu Yi three times in a row. Her forehead was bruised as she said seriously, “Your Highness, please uphold justice!” “Please save my son, Your Highness!”
Madam Hua placed her forehead on the ground and prostrated herself on the ground without moving.
Chu Yi didn’t comment. His clear and gentle gaze turned to the old Daoist on the other side. “Daoist Xuan Cheng, have you heard of this evil technique Madam Hua mentioned?”
The old Daoist holding the silver horsetail whisk stood there motionless with his eyes half closed. Only the wisps of the horsetail whisk and the wide sleeves of his clothes flew up with the mountain wind.
Daoist Xuan Cheng opened his eyes and gently flicked the horsetail whisk. He had a sage-like aura that transcended the mortal world.
“Your Highness, if I’m not wrong…”
Before Daoist Xuan Cheng could finish speaking, Hua Lan had already jumped up from the ground excitedly. Like a crazy beast, he flew towards Daoist Xuan Cheng, wanting to shut him up.
However, he had no chance to rush in front of Daoist Xuan Cheng at all. A royal blue figure flashed past, and a certain royal guard kicked Hua Lan’s lower abdomen steadily and accurately. His movements were as fast as lightning. Those students didn’t even catch his movements. They only saw Hua Lan fall to the ground with a muffled groan.
Immediately after, two imperial guards grabbed Hua Lan’s arms from both sides. One of them kicked him hard in the knees, making him fall to his knees again.
When the students looked at Hua Lan again, they saw that he was drenched in cold sweat. His hair was almost wet, as if he had been scooped out of the water. He no longer looked guilty, but frightened.
Han Zhanghe was still holding the Hua family tree in his hand. He muttered softly, “Madam Hua is indeed telling the truth…”
The other students nodded silently and looked at Hua Lan with disdain.
There was no need for Hua Lan to confess. It was obvious from his guilty and frightened expression.
Daoist Xuan Cheng glanced at Hua Lan, who was pinned to the ground, and flicked his horsetail whisk again. He muttered softly, “Supreme Taiyi, the Transcendent of Resolving Calamities.”
Then, he bowed to Chu Yi and sighed. “Your Highness, if I’m not wrong, the Hua family should be doing the Soul Nurturing and Fate Changing Technique.” “Please enlighten me, Spiritual Master.” Chu Yi cupped his hands elegantly. Daoist Xuan Cheng slowly stroked his beard and organized his words. He explained unhurriedly, “It’s said that this ‘Soul Nurturing and Fate Changing Technique’ is extremely evil. It requires a young man and woman with matching eight characters. The man can’t be older than 20 years old. At this moment, the man’s Yang qi is the most vigorous, and his luck is also the most vigorous. He uses the woman’s Yin qi to restrict the man’s Yang qi and achieve the balance of Yin and Yang. He uses their living souls to nourish the luck of the clan.”
With that, Daoist Xuan Cheng shook his head. “This is an evil technique. Every time it’s used, it can protect the family’s prosperity for 30 years, but it has to sacrifice two living lives.”
“Spiritual Master, is there a way to resolve this technique?” Chu Yi asked again.
Madam Hua, who was kneeling on the ground, looked up again.
If it was Daoist Xuan Cheng, he would definitely know how to resolve it!
Her swollen cheek was already swollen and deformed, and there was still dried blood at the corner of her mouth, but she didn’t care at all. She only looked at Daoist Xuan Cheng with a burning gaze.
Daoist Xuan Cheng frowned slightly, and his expression gradually became serious. He said helplessly, “The most important step of this technique is to use an underworld marriage as a medium to activate the spell. If the two families sign the marriage contract and the woman accepts the betrothal gift, it will be equivalent to forming an underworld marriage. The ceremony will be more than half done.”
“That girl will become the ghost of the Hua family from now on. She will definitely die. There’s no way to resolve it.”
From the moment she signed the marriage contract, the woman would be part of the Hua family and would die!
Daoist Xuan Cheng sighed faintly, his eyes filled with pity.
Madam Hua didn’t care if Lu Qin could be saved. What she cared about were her sons.. She quickly asked, “Spiritual Master, what about my sons?”
