Chapter 973: Blood Bead

“Cut the crap.” Yu Su pretended as if she was going to make the talisman take effect.

Zhou Yue was so frightened that his face turned pale. He hurriedly said, “That fake monk said that before I sent it out, I had to recite the incantation once, so I did. I really told you everything. I didn’t hide anything.”

He was too scared. He didn’t want to go through that pain again.

“Damned fella!” Liu Cheng was so angry that she slapped him again.

Zhou Yue was beaten until he saw stars, but a ball of fire burned in his heart. “If you hadn’t been badmouthing your parents in front of me all day, why would I have done this? It’s all your fault.”

“You!” Liu Cheng was so angry that she could not say anything. He looked at Liu Guan carefully.

Liu Guan looked at Liu Cheng coldly. “I’ll settle the score with you later.”

Liu Guan asked, “Tell me the incantation and I’ll spare your life. Otherwise, I’ll throw you into the Poison Cave in Southeast Asia to fend for yourself.”

Poison Cave was a famous organ trafficking center. Ordinary people would be dismembered and sold there.

Zhou Yue trembled. At this moment, he really regretted provoking the Liu family. He only knew that the Liu family was rich, but he did not expect them to be so ruthless.

Zhou Yue spat out a string of incantations and was escorted away by the bodyguards.

After that, the Liu family performed the ritual in the middle of the courtyard. Liu Cheng knelt in the hot sun. Her pale face looked even more pitiful under the sunlight, but no one present sympathized with her.

Yu Su placed the toolbox on the table and took out all the tools for the ritual later. It was time. Yu Su lit three incense sticks and walked towards Liu Cheng.

After inserting the incense, Yu Su took out the prayer beads wrapped in black cloth and placed them flat on the table. She began to draw talismans with cinnabar. The tip of the pen drew on the paper, and the patterns fused together with a special sense of beauty.

Meng Xi stood at the side, feeling anxious. She believed in Yu Su’s strength, but the person lying on the bed was her most respected elder, who was like a mother to her. She prayed that this ritual must definitely succeed!

Yu Su drew very quickly. Not long after, the talisman was completed. When the last stroke was done, a cold wind suddenly appeared from the sky.

The wind was so cold that it made one’s hair stand on end. Liu Cheng, who was kneeling in the courtyard, had sweat all over her forehead and was about to faint from the heat. Now that the wind blew, she had goosebumps.

Liu Chen’s heart was beating very fast. She gritted her teeth to stop herself from screaming. She felt that something was looking at her, and that gaze was filled with blood and viciousness.

“Go away…” Yu Su closed her eyes and chanted an incantation, her voice neither fast nor slow.

Three minutes later, the nanny suddenly ran down from upstairs. “Not good, not good.”

The few people in the courtyard looked over.

The nanny said to them, “Madam suddenly sat up and spat out a mouthful of black blood. The blood seemed to be poisonous and corroded the carpet.”

Yu Su’s eyes were still closed as she continued to chant. A moment later, she quickly pasted the talisman paper in her hand on the prayer beads and made a hand seal. “Seal!”

The talisman was firmly stuck to the Buddhist prayer beads. The Buddhist prayer beads were originally black, but now, the color quickly faded and they gradually revealed their own colors. The Buddhist prayer bead turned into a string of dark red blood beads.

The bead was like an eye in the abyss, silently staring at Liu Cheng from the table with endless smiles in its eyes.

At the thought of this, Liu Cheng could not help but get up. “Ah… I’m scared…” She wailed loudly, her snot and tears flowing down her face. She looked ridiculous and pitiful. Liu Chen quickly ran to her father and hid behind Liu Guan.

Yu Su did not care about Liu Cheng’s actions. Instead, she wrapped the string of blood beads in a black cloth and wrapped it with black threads. Finally, she solemnly placed it in a box made of peach blossom wood.

“Phew!” Yu Su heaved a sigh of relief. This meant that the ritual was completed.

Ye Tang walked over quickly and looked at Yu Su worriedly. “Yu Su, are you tired? Are you alright?”

“I’m fine. Let’s go upstairs and see Auntie!” Yu Su said.

“Okay!” Liu Guan hurried upstairs to check on his wife.

Upstairs, the family doctor of the Liu family was examining Jiang Rong. Jiang Rong’s face was much rosier and she looked healthier.

“How is my wife now?” Liu Guan walked into the room and could not help but ask.

The doctor frowned. “After spitting out a mouthful of blood, her heartbeat is stronger than before, and her breathing is longer. Her condition has improved.”

“Really? That’s great!” Liu Cheng said excitedly.

Yu Su walked over and reached out to take Jiang Rong’s pulse. A moment later, she put down her hand. “Auntie is fine now. She just has to rest well next. I’ll prepare some calming incense to exorcise evil spirits. In the future, light some every night before she sleeps.”
