Capítulo 1149: Chapter 1108: Slaying the Wife to Prove the Dao, Abhorred by Heaven and Earth (5,000-Word Chapter)_3
Qin Liuxi wasn’t able to pick up the tablet; it seed to be firmly fixed within, despite her twists and turns.
Crack.
The desk that seed to have no gaps emitted a sound, followed by the chanism activating, causing the desk to split open sideways.
That’s the end for the Fan Family!
Old Madam Fan’s vision darkened, and she collapsed to the ground.
Inspector Yang and General Fang exchanged a glance, both shocked.
Once the desk opened, it revealed a hollow interior with a jar sealed by li and wrapped in a cold, black chain—the appearance remarkably similar to the Soul Hook Chain Qin Liuxi had seen.
And there were several yellow talismans attached to the jar.
Everyone present, except Qin Liuxi, felt a chill down their spine. What kind of family altar would house sothing so sinister?
Inspector Yang originally thought such a scholarly family like the Fans wouldn’t commit such malicious acts, but seeing this clearly ominous jar, he realized he was wrong.
This Fan family is tainted!
Old Madam Fan, looking ashen, said, “Yes, we did invite a mage to conduct a ritual, but this has nothing to do with Mrs. Xie…”
“You old hag, this is clearly my sister’s tablet, and you say it’s unrelated? You’re speaking nonsense with your eyes wide open!” Mrs. Zhou slapped her viciously on the cheek, “Shut up, it’s not your turn to speak!”
Old Madam Fan saw stars from the slap and spat a mouthful of blood foam.
Qin Liuxi had already removed the talisman and glanced at it, saying, “Sealed with li, soul-locking chain to imprison souls, and used talisman for soul destruction, along with the treasure lotus lamp to suppress the Yin Evil; your preparations are indeed thorough.”
As she peeled off each talisman, she could sense the jar’s interior emitting mournful wails and resentful energy.
Madam Xie, feeling it in her heart, walked closer instinctively, her hands trembling.
After removing the talismans, Qin Liuxi took out a piece of yellow paper, drew a fresh talisman on it, and swept it over the sealed lid of the jar, and with a crack, the li clay split.
“No, you can’t open it!” Fan Huai Peng attempted to rush over but was pinned by General Fang.
Qin Liuxi began unlocking the soul-locking chain, removing the loops one by one from the jar’s body, then unsealing the jar lid.
A powerful gust of cold wind blew, extinguishing all the oil lamps in the shrine, and a piercing chill surged out from the jar.
Everyone felt a chill down their spine.
Inspector Yang stood behind General Fang, quietly clutching his coat sleeve, unafraid, as Old Fang is a martial general with a presence that wards off evil; Old Fang protects!
General Fang’s sleeve was tugged, but it didn’t move. He glared at Inspector Yang with big eyes, upright and fearless, “What are you afraid of?”
Qin Liuxi saw a woman with heroic features standing before her—a bit like Madam Xie’s shadow; it was Xie Wan.
Perhaps trapped for too long, she appeared confused, her Divine Soul nearly dispersing, while her belly, still swollen, indicated she had never actually given birth.
The Fan Family had recorded the child as hers, making it her son.
The soul extinguishing talismans weakened her spirit; if suppressed longer, she would vanish completely, leaving Fan Huai Peng’s life expectancy unthreatened.
Qin Liuxi glanced inside the jar; there were so white bones inside, which made her purse her lips. From the jar, she extracted two small puppets wrapped in talisman paper, locked hand in hand, hair intertwined—the male puppet emitting a red glow, and the female puppet completely gray, with their birth dates inscribed on their back, and a needle stabbed into the back of the female puppet.
She unfolded the talisman paper—intertwined marriage, shared life expectancy.
“What is this?” Mrs. Zhou was flustered.
Qin Liuxi sighed, “The jar contains Xie Wan’s ashes, blood and bones sealed within, preventing her soul from reincarnating. The puppets were crafted by them; having the marriage contract and worshiping the heavens made them one as married couple. They employed evil magic, murder the wife, prove the Dao by sacrificing her, seize her life expectancy, and alter fate to extend their own.”
Everyone was chilled to the bone.
Pfft.
Madam Xie finally couldn’t hold back; spitting a mouthful of clotted blood, she toppled backward.
Shunfang cried out in alarm, rushing to catch Madam Xie and let her lean against her.
General Fang, frightened, also hurried over to help, offering a cushion for Madam Xie to sit on.
“No, no need.” Madam Xie just opened her mouth, and tears began flowing, staring blankly at the black jar, feeling heartache beyond words.
Xie Wan, now seeming revived, scanned around, saw Fan Huai Peng on the ground, and with a burst of resentnt charged over, “You killed , you are so cruel!”
Resentnt, pervasive and unstoppable.
