" I would of course choose the latter option," said Au Lisha through gritted teeth. " That man is the reason that my daughter is suffering so much, why should he be living comfortably? It's fine that he dared to use me as he pleases but how dare he think of using my daughter as a sacrifice for his beloved son! I will never forgive him for that." Au Lisha has been blinded by love which was why she was willing to ignore every single flaw of Yu Yize but now that she knew the truth there was no way she was going to let him get away with what he has done so easily.
That man dared to harm her daughter, she would be an idiot if she were to act like the bigger person and forgive him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSong Yan already knew without a doubt that Au Lisha would choose the second option, a wife can be weak but a mother cannot—— Au Mei was Au Lisha's lifeline and it could be seen that she loves her daughter a lot. Yu Yize tried to touch Au Lisha's bottom line of course now that Au Lisha has an option to retaliate, she would not stop no matter what.
With her hand stretched out, Song Yan took out the red diamond that she has taken from the condemned spirit and then handed it over to Au Lisha. " Make sure to keep this against her mouth throughout the entire ritual, do not let your hand shake no matter what happens or what you see because if you moved your hand, then the curse won't break and your daughter's life will be endangered, don't ever let anything move your hand."
Song Yan knew that the prototype of the vengeful spirit would definitely try to shake Au Lisha up, she cannot let it do that, which was why she has to warn Au Lisha or else she was to mess it up later on.
Au Lisha took the red diamond from Song Yan and clenched it in her hands, this diamond was the life-saving straw for her daughter of course she was going to take care of it and do as Song Yan asked her to do because she knew that she couldn't make a mistake. Though she was a bit nervous about making a slip-up—— she was confident enough to not let anything harm her daughter no matter what.
When Au Lisha took her seat next to her daughter and placed the red diamond over her daughter's parted lips, Song Yan, who knew from where took out a lyre and a set of red candles that she stacked in a circle around Au Mei's bed. She didn't even have to take out a matchstick to light them up, as she placed the red candles on the ground, they would light up with a vivid blue flame as if they were burning for hours. The light scattered all over the room as if sucking the very things that were hiding in the darkness—— these candles were a speciality of the Gu family, something that she learned from Gu Yijin.
Made from wax that was dipped in the holy water mixed with the remnants of sandalwood, with their wickers that were crafted from the thin strands of cloth that were dipped in the red sap of the bloodwood trees. These candles were efficient in sucking all the negative energy from the surroundings—— as long as any evil spirit or negative energy was lurking around their vicinity, they will light up without any matchstick.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs soon as Song Yan was done placing the candles on the ground, everyone noticed the blue flames flickering and lighting up the entire room but that wasn't what both excited and terrified them, it was the black mists that started to curl around their toes that caused their heart to jump. Neither of the family members of the Au family knew what the thing was, all they knew was that just one touch of the mist was enough to make them shiver and cause goosebumps to rise all over their skin.
And this scene amazed them so much that their mouths dropped open, especially Au Cheung who has never seen anything like this before. He stared at Song Yan who was now sitting in front of the bed facing Au Mei and then at the red candles and black mist that was curling around the floor, around his niece and the entire room —— he rubbed his eyes and opened them hoping some sort of change to take place but nothing happened … the candles were still there, sucking the black mists and turning them into white fumes. Inwardly, he could feel his worldview crashing bit by bit.
" This… This... how is this possible?" Au Cheung did believe Song Yan a little after the incident with the chihuahua but he didn't think that she was so skilled. The entire thing was so disbelieving that he felt like he has stumbled into an alternate universe where ghosts, magic and monsters existed… really this was too much! What happened to the claims of those science maniacs who said that there was nothing like ghosts and demons in this world? If there was nothing like a ghost then what was this? How was this happening then?
He couldn't calm down as he turned his head to look at his father who was no longer as shocked as his son, having anticipated something like this.
" You better not question the skills of that little lady," said Old master Au as he stared at Song Yan unblinkingly, he was different from his kids who haven't seen anything like this before. When he was a kid, many villagers would call spirit masters and priests to take care of the spirits that were haunting them or to find out why their parents' spirit wasn't at rest —- so he was sort of prepared to see something like that happening again but as he watched Song Yan do her thing he realised, that she was at a whole different level than those spirit masters whom he saw in the village. She was very impressive and knew how to do her thing. Old master Au couldn't help but admire Song Yan a bit more in his heart. This was the difference between a true spirit master and a fake one —— she hasn't even made a move yet and he could already feel the negative energy in his body and house being sucked away.
