My Lady Always Lacks Ambition-Chapter 941 - 920: Where Will the Child Go?
The truth is fully revealed, yet it is as heavy as a thousand-pound boulder, weighing heavily on everyone’s minds.
Zheng Yao understood why it was her and laughed and cried, feeling ridiculously absurd. She was blessed with a good life, dressed in finery and with smooth sailing since birth, but because of her favorable life chart, she was cruelly victimized by evil magic.
How can the world be so absurd?
Luan Bailin, Luan Bailin.
She repeated the name, her resentful energy surging.
A hand rested on her shoulder, pressing down the resentful energy.
"You have swallowed that evil path’s soul, if you don’t find it filthy, I won’t say more, but Luan Bailin, he surely will endure a fate worse than death, you don’t need to bear it any further or add karma," Qin Liuxi said softly, "Your thoughts should be on the living, such as your old father, and this child."
Zheng Yao’s body stiffened, bloodshot eyes looking toward the child.
Luan Bailin isn’t dead yet, but sooner or later he will be tortured to death, what should become of this child?
The Great General also looked somewhat dumbfounded at the weak child. Although the child resembled Zheng Yao, he bore more likeness to Luan Bailin, his fate undoubtedly pitiful and unfortunate, encountering such a scumbag of a father, but should he be raised?
Such similar appearance, perhaps seeing him would remind one of Luan Bailin’s wickedness.
Yet, the child is also Zheng Yao’s.
A silence pervaded the room, even Lord Zuo remained quiet.
Zheng Yao felt more conflicted, she knew the child was innocent, but he was not born as she expected, especially given that he bore half the blood of that villain, she felt more disgust and hatred, if she could, she’d rather he hadn’t been born.
But the truth is, he was born, under Luan Bailin’s vile scheme, he became a tool, enduring such bitter blood sin.
"What will happen to him bearing the karma?" Zheng Yao asked.
Qin Liuxi answered: "If left uncared for, he naturally weak with the body of Qi Xingzi, his bones and muscles not yet fully developed, coupled with the backlash of evil power, he will become even weaker, ultimately dying young."
Lord Zuo detected another meaning and said: "He can still be saved?"
"Bearing the evil power unwillingly, as long as good deeds are done in his name to cultivate merit, it can offset the evil power. As for his physique, it needs nurturing," Qin Liuxi replied.
Zheng Yao looked at the Great General, who said, "Father will follow your lead, if you want me to raise him, I’ll do it."
"This is too cruel for father." Zheng Yao shed tears, "He resembles that person so much, father has to face him daily, how heart-wrenching this is? But with daughter gone, father’s knees are empty, incense without a successor, I..."
This is a choice of dilemma.
Raise him, it pierces the heart every day, let him be, the child will die young, Zheng Yao won’t come back, and there will be no one behind the Great General.
The Great General shook his head, "What incense or not, father doesn’t care, only wanting someone in the back to hold the banner and fetch water, father can choose an adopted son, countless orphans remain from the battlefield, the important thing is your own thoughts, Yaoyao."
He truly didn’t care about descendants, just a child, if one is not enough, he could adopt ten or even a hundred, there are countless orphans left by those lost on the battlefield, can he not choose a few good ones to nurture and enjoy as company under his knees?
But facing this child truly, he himself would daily recall the father’s wicked deeds, and it wouldn’t be fair to Yaoyao, it’s the child made her suffer.
Zheng Yao’s gaze was complex, she couldn’t feel any affection for the child, as long as she thought of whose blood he bore.
Qin Liuxi said: "Since it’s such a tough choice, why not send him to a Buddhist Temple or Daoist Temple? First, becoming a monk there can better eliminate the karma and evil power on him, also he won’t bear much of others’ gaze and gossip, you don’t need to worry about his life and death."
The Great General listened, looked at Zheng Yao, seeing her nod, then said: "This is feasible, he is still young, not remembering things, growing up in a Buddhist Temple is his blessing, I can donate a large amount of incense money in his name to act for good and accumulate virtue, offsetting some evil power."
Qin Liuxi nodded, "Good."
Lord Zuo didn’t speak, if it were him, facing half the bloodline that harmed others daily, even wanting to be close would be impossible, too awkward, and the pure child would indeed sensitively perceive adults’ likes and dislikes, the Great General probably wouldn’t maintain no distance with him.
And when distance forms, it leads to likes and dislikes.
Qin Liuxi looked at Zheng Yao: "Human and ghost take different paths, you are already a yin soul, lingering in the human world has no benefit, I’ll send the child to Yufu Temple, after dawn, when the mourning hall is set up, I’ll recite for you and send you to the Ghost Gate."
Zheng Yao felt some resistance, reluctantly looking at the Great General.
"Staying in the human world with resentful energy, over time you become a Great Evil Ghost and will be exterminated by other Heavenly Masters, your soul will scatter. Causing evil, you become an enemy of Buddhist and Taoist paths," Qin Liuxi advised, "Enter the Ghost Gate early, and reincarnate soon, you can wait in line below for your family."
The Great General choked up, "Yaoyao, listen, father is fine."
Zheng Yao with blood tears, "Okay."
"Luan Bailin woke up." Feng Xiu suddenly said.
Qin Liuxi looked at the squirming person at the door and dragged him in, "Is the silent curse on the Great General from you? Where did you learn this secret medicine?"
Luan Bailin spat a mouthful of blood, "I don’t know what you’re talking about?"
"On the brink of death, you still deny? Tell me, did you harm my father? How can you be so vicious, harming me is not enough, you want to harm my father, what did our Zheng Family do to you, did we excavate your family’s ancestral tomb in a previous life?" Zheng Yao rushed over, her sinister resentful aura like a cold poisonous snake wrapped around him, sweeping over his whole body.
She hated deeply.
Luan Bailin seeing her, his pupils contracted, she really came back for revenge.
Looking again at Qin Liuxi, his eyes filled with hate, he knew from the first sight of this person, he knew this person would be his nemesis, would render him exposed with nowhere to hide.
Sure enough, he carefully guarded this secret for years, needing just half a year’s time or less to fully succeed, yet this variable appeared!
Truly detestable.
"Blame it on you insisting on finding her," Luan Bailin sneered at the Great General, "If you hadn’t searched for her, gotten involved, wouldn’t it have been okay?"
Qin Liuxi squatted down, looking into his eyes, "You are changing the topic."
Luan Bailin stared back briefly, "Victors and losers, kill or hack at will."
He lowered his eyes, jaw moved, just about to bite his tongue, Qin Liuxi pinched his jaw first, unhinged it with a crack.
Luan Bailin’s expression was panic-stricken.
"Someone is surely backing you," Qin Liuxi smirked, "You have no chance of a good life left, yet still won’t betray the other side, who made you so devoted till death?"
The Great General’s face was as deep as water, he had already submitted the Tiger Talisman, no longer holding military power, who still schemed behind him?
Whether Yaoyao’s matter and his are one or he’s collateral, really?
