Gu Bailu went to a pretty big yard where Ye Yunshu had lived. It was well tended and had a lot of flowers even though it was winter.
On the open ground in the yard, Gu Bailu arranged the gold items in the shape of the Eight Diagram according to the book. She then put the blood in the center and chanted.
She didn’t know if this ancestral record could help, but she still wanted to try.
She was already at a high level in terms of her family arts, but she was still unfamiliar with many of the moves.
Her family arts might look like petty tricks, but if she used them correctly, there was no reason for her to be scared of experts with spiritual power.
It depended on Yan Anchun’s luck whether or not she could endure part of the Heavenly Tribulation.
She intended to return the favor to Feng Qingtian who had saved her once again.
She looked at the sky. The clouds were slowly dispersing, revealing some moonlight. She poured the blood from the cup into the S-shaped slot at the center of the Eight Diagrams.
She then took out a piece of paper and, following what she saw in the book, she drew a rune which she had never seen before, before she abruptly pressed it into the S-shaped slot.
Right at that moment, there was a red glow which shot up into the sky from wherever the blood was.
Gu Bailu was quite shocked herself.
She hadn’t expected such a scene; lifting her head, she saw the brilliant red light clash with the bright moon, making the moon look like it was made of blood. It was very uncanny.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning shot out from the full moon like a web and struck the east.
Gu Bailu saw it about to hit the top of Prince Zi’s house.
She hurriedly activated the eighteen gold items with her spells. The gold items were then connected by the blood in a huge web, and they flashed with a red light which darted outward to collide with the lightning bolt before it hit Prince Zi’s house.
Gu Bailu sensed an intense collision. She took out another rune and put it in the center of the Eight Diagram, which glowed an even brighter red. The whole sky was dyed in the color.
Those who were sound asleep didn’t know what was going on at all, but those who weren’t sleeping were all shocked by the bloody moon in the sky.
In the yard outside the house, Feng Qingtian had been monitoring the appearance of the moon and the arrival of the Heavenly Tribulation. He had hurriedly established arrays and gotten dozens of experts to ward off the tribulation with spiritual power.
However, the Heavenly Tribulation stopped right about his head.
The full moon turned red, and the Heavenly Tribulation was blocked.
Who was helping them?
Mr. Xiao came out of the room. “What’s going on? Is the Heavenly Tribulation not ing?”
“It did, but someone helped us. Who in this world can hold off a Heavenly Tribulation?”
Wasn’t that suicide?
Feng Qingtian was quite puzzled. Who was kind enough to help Yan Anchun without letting him know in advance?
“Qin Shou, find out where this power is from now.”
Though the Heavenly Tribulation had been stopped for now, it would still happen sooner or later. Nobody could stop the heavens.
Feng Qingtian continued to stare nervously at the formidable lightning. The moon was even creepier now that it had turned red.
The less courageous hid in their houses, and the men on patrol had run away as well.
Soon after Qin Shou left, Ye Hua returned. “My lord, I don’t know what the princess did in her yard, but she’s the cause of the red light.”
