Chapter 1437 - 1437 Old Ancestor of the Zhuang Family

1437 Old Ancestor of the Zhuang Family

In the capital, Zhuang Yanru had just found out from her family that the ‘ancestor’ whom they revered had suddenly vomited blood and was seriously injured. She and the entire Zhuang family were shocked.

The Zhuang family was well aware that it was because of this ancestor that they had been able to prosper all these years. If something really happened to this ancestor, the Zhuang family really didn’t know what to do. They were still relying on this ancestor’s guidance to climb up the ranks via the Qi family in the capital. Even if they couldn’t form ties with the Qi family, they had to enter another first-class family in the capital. This was everyone’s obsession and selfish desire.

Zhuang Yanru was relying on this ancestor to marry into the Qi family, and hence was even more anxious about something happening to the ancestor. Although she had failed repeatedly and Qi Zhenbai’s attitude toward her hadn’t changed at all, she firmly believed that as long as the old ancestor was around, her desire would be fulfilled sooner or later. If that didn’t happen, she still wanted to see the Qi family and Qi Zhenbai pay the price.

When she heard the news, Zhuang Yanru anxiously followed her father and uncles to see this ancestor.

It was damp and cold inside the shrine. They were attacked by a cold gust of wind as soon as they entered.

On a table inside the shrine was a large jar. This jar wasn’t much different from the one used to brew rice wine at home – the only difference was that there was a head on top of this jar. Upon closer look, there was a person hiding inside the jar. When he spoke, a twisted black neck was revealed under the head, but everything else below was a hazy black emptiness.

The face looked quite normal, but was abnormally white and thin; it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it was like a layer of skin wrapped around his bones. There was still some blood on his lips, which looked terrifying.

Not only that, because his face was thin, his cloudy, bloodshot eyes bulged out. He looked neither human nor ghost, especially at that moment. His face was very unsightly and gloomy, and his red eyes were a bit sinister and malicious, as if he would explode in the next second because of his anger.

The Zhuang family was scared witless. This was the first time they had seen their ‘ancestor’ so angry and murderous.

The Zhuang family had always worshiped this ancestor. Even though they were used to his appearance, they still couldn’t help but feel a little nervous every time they saw him.

Zhuang Yanru’s face also turned a little pale, but she called out solicitously, “Master, are you okay?”

As soon as Zhuang Yanru spoke, the rest of the Zhuang family echoed her respectfully and asked in concern, “Ancestor, what happened on your side just now? What do you need us to do for you?”

After a while, the gloomy man in the jar finally spoke. His voice was a bit rough and unpleasant. He took a few labored breaths before he said, “You must find me an intact body as soon as possible.”

When the Zhuang family heard this, they immediately agreed. The gloomy old ancestor suddenly said, “Wait. Yanru, call the fourth son of the Qi family right away and tell him that Qi Zhenbai isn’t dead; he’ll probably be in the capital tomorrow. Have them immediately go with the next… plan!” As soon as he finished speaking, he spat out a mouthful of blood. Bright red blood stained the jar, and the ghastly sight scared the Zhuang family out of their wits.

The gloomy ‘ancestor’ spoke again. “As for switching bodies, we’ll put that aside for the time being. I still want that Qi person’s body. As for the rest, follow the plan. The time, place and person are all aligned this time – I don’t believe he can escape death again.”

Thinking this, the gloomy ancestor laughed smugly. It was a cold and scary laugh.

When he thought of how he would take over the body of that Qi person with the best luck and most hallowed fate, he could overlook the fact that someone had killed the ‘pet’ he had been raising in Dashan Village, along with his clone which had been hiding there.

He would settle these scores with that Chi woman sooner or later.

The most important thing now was to take control of Qi Zhenbai’s body first. As long as he obtained that body, which was blessed by the heavens and had a hallowed fate, he wouldn’t have to worry about shedding his current body in the future, and his cultivation would increase tremendously. He thought of the overflowing purple aura of the Qi family patriarch’s favorite grandson. That purple aura was much rarer and more precious than the trace of dragon qi in Dashan Village.

Hearing her master’s words, Zhuang Yanru’s face changed slightly. On the worship altar, the gloomy ancestor took in Zhuang Yanru’s subtle expression. His eyes were dangerous and his voice was cold and terrifying. “What? You’re unwilling? Have you really taken a fancy to him?”

To be honest, Zhuang Yanru did like Qi Zhenbai’s face and bearing. In short, she did like him, but she knew why her family wanted her to get close to Qi Zhenbai.

Whether or not she could marry into the Qi family, her master’s plan to seize Qi Zhenbai’s body hadn’t changed.

If she could marry into the Qi family like she wanted, not only would it consolidate the Zhuang family’s status in the capital, they could also rely on this close relationship to avoid the heavens and enable her master to successfully seize Qi Zhenbai’s body.

After all, she learned from her master that not only did Qi Zhenbai have a hallowed fate, he was also protected by the heavens. If her master rashly seized his body, he wouldn’t be able to escape the revenge of the heavens, no matter how profound his cultivation was. This was also the main reason why the ancestor had taken her in as his disciple back then. At the same time, it was the simplest and most direct way to seize Qi Zhenbai’s body.

Because she became the only disciple of the Zhuang family’s ancestor, her status in the Zhuang family rose tremendously. Without her master, she was nothing. If Qi Zhenbai, that man, was sincere toward her, she might have softened a little and given him a warning. However, when she thought of how that man ignored her, Zhuang Yanru felt aggrieved and resentful. At that moment, when her master finished speaking, her face changed drastically and she hurriedly said, “Master, although I do like him a little, the most important thing in my heart from beginning to end is still you. I’m just sorry that I couldn’t settle the matter for you, and I feel guilty!”
