Chapter 168 – Setting Up A Curse
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xie Qiao did not go too far.
After taking a stroll for so long, she had a clear idea of how the Zheng Residence’s situation was.
She also glanced at Zheng Lusheng from far away. The man’s eyes betrayed how lecherous he was. He did not seem as simple as he was on the surface. He was a cunning one.
Xie Qiao returned to the Fortune Pavilion to prepare cinnabars, talismans, and some utensils. At night, she sneaked out of the side door after informing Chun Er.
Her courtyard was remote, so it was easy for her to move around.
She would have to locate the prime vertical spots in the Zheng Residence and set up tiger-shaped Dharmic instruments in each spot. The curse would be executed by then.
When the curse took effect, it would be hard for one to prosper, and calamities would fall upon them.
However, it depended on individuals when it came to evil energy. Everyone had different energy. If they had Yang energy, the evil energy could not take effect. If they had dark energy, they would bring troubles to themselves.
Xie Qiao did not care about conscience when she was paid to work. What she cared about was the female spirit’s satisfaction.
After doing all that, the dark energy became heavier at the Zheng Residence.
The female spirit looked at her own body. She suddenly felt that she was much more powerful now. She said to Xie Qiao immediately, “Priest, can I take revenge now?”
“Not exactly.” Xie Qiao shook her head. “You have grievances, and they will intensify at the Zheng and Wei Residence. Therefore, you’re only more powerful when you’re at the two places. If you want, you should try to speak to your parents in their dreams. Although you can’t create a realistic dreamland, it’d be good to visit them. Also… You should indeed stay by Zheng Lusheng’s side more often.”
A spirit was a spirit. Unless they were filled with resentment and ferociousness, it would be difficult for them to kill someone.
However, when a living person had more dark energy, their Yang energy would drop. The little spirits could pull some tricks on them.
The female spirit was very satisfied to be able to do that.
She hovered over the Wei Residence.
Evil energy needed time to gather. There was no rush.
When Xie Qiao set up the evil energy, the female spirit was not the only one around her. Some lonely spirits were peeping from far away. They seemed to want to see if she would fulfill the female spirit’s wish.
Therefore, Xie Qiao took the case very seriously. Otherwise, she could have just done what the female spirit said and would have hired someone to beat up the husband. Why should she spend so much effort?
It was difficult to set up evil energy, okay?
Xie Qiao only dared to do that because Zheng Lusheng carried a lot of bad karma with him. Otherwise, she would die even faster if she was to do that on a regular person.
It would take a few days for it to take effect.
After removing her makeup, Xie Qiao was a lovable lady again. She went to school obediently.
Within two days, as expected, Pei Wanyue enrolled in the academy with the recommendation letter.
She did not have a powerful identity nor status, so nobody paid attention to her enrollment.
Firstly, she was not an official’s daughter. Secondly, she did not come from a wealthy business family. Although the Chu family gave her the recommendation letter, there was a difference between letters. Therefore, she was sent to Class D of Chrysanthemum Courtyard.
As soon as Pei Wanyue entered, she asked about Xie Qiao.
She felt horrible when she found out that Xie Qiao was in Class Sun.
The classes, Qian, Kun, Sun, Moon, A, B, C, and D, were ranked according to one’s identity and status. It was futile even if she was unwilling.
However, she lost to Xie Qiao even when it came to the five rankings!
Xie Qiao was in the Orchid Courtyard that ranked second, while she was in the Chrysanthemum Courtyard, which ranked third. One’s talent determined it!
Why?
Could it be that Xie Qiao was more talented than she was?
Pei Wanyue was upset that day. On that day, she did not speak much. She could not remember who was in her courtyard. Her heart was in turmoil.
She did not have silver beans, so she did not have lunch.
In the evening, she thought she would stay at the academy. However, she only found out from the teacher that she needed to pay in silver or silver beans to be able to stay at the academy.
She had neither!
Life was hard for people who only entered the academy at such an age!
However, Xie Qiao had been living a good life!
