Chapter 858: Chapter 407: Daughter of Fortune, Backlash from Stealing Luck

Yu Ruohuan eagerly jumped out of the car, excitedly rushing inside.

This was a place resembling a warehouse, located in a remote area, rarely visited by people.

Though the place was large, the surrounding piles of goods made it appear cramped.

A group of muscular, well-trained men in black stood in two rows. As Yu Ruohuan entered, they didn’t even lift an eyelid.

Yu Ruohuan frowned slightly, feeling a bit uncomfortable.

But since these were White Gloves’ people, on their turf, she had to restrain herself for now.

Not far away, on an open ground, a person sat on a chair, hands and feet bound, head drooping, seemingly unconscious.

Yu Ruohuan had finally awaited this moment, almost wanting to laugh out loud.

Shen You’an, today is your death day.

She dashed forward, intending to torture Shen You’an to let off some steam, when a voice sounded from behind: "Miss, there’s no time, it’s best to end this quickly."

The speaking man wore a large yellow Taoist robe, holding a horsetail whisk in the crook of his arm, giving off an ethereal look at first glance.

Yu Ruohuan looked at Shen You’an, who was right in front of her, thinking since she has already captured her, a little time didn’t matter.

Zhang Laifu glanced at the moonlight outside the window: "Midnight at twelve is the time when yin and yang converge, when yin energy is strongest, performing the ritual now will yield twice the result with half the effort. Miss, don’t miss such a good opportunity."

Yu Ruohuan looked at Zhang Laifu: "Alright, I’ll listen to you, let’s perform the ritual first."

Zhang Laifu instructed his subordinates to set up the altar, then took out a pile of ritual tools from his broad sleeve.

He walked to Shen You’an with something inside a cloth bag, grabbed a handful from the bag, and scattered it around Shen You’an.

"What is this?" Yu Ruohuan asked curiously.

"Cinnabar, to ward off evil and exorcise spirits, to prevent evil spirits from approaching during the ritual."

Seeing him working so meticulously, Yu Ruohuan thought she had chosen the right person.

Zhang Laifu placed a meditation mat on the empty ground beside Shen You’an, gesturing for Yu Ruohuan to sit on it.

Yu Ruohuan eagerly sat cross-legged.

Her eyes were filled with excitement and fear.

Zhang Laifu said to her: "Miss, please close your eyes tightly, focus your energy on your lower abdomen, and don’t think about anything. The whole process will be painless."

Yu Ruohuan nodded, turned her head to glance at the unconscious Shen You’an, and a smug smile curled up at the corner of her mouth.

Shen You’an, in a little while, your good days will be over.

Turning her head back, she took a deep breath and slowly closed her eyes.

Zhang Laifu sprinkled a circle of cinnabar around Yu Ruohuan.

Then placed seven oil lamps in front of the two, forming an inverted Big Dipper pattern.

After that, Zhang Laifu rummaged through his sleeve and took out two pieces of yellow talisman paper.

On them were written the birthdate and time of the two in cinnabar.

One was Shen You’an’s, and the other was Yu Ruohuan’s.

To obtain Shen You’an’s accurate birthdate and time, Yu Ruohuan had someone secretly investigate Shen You’an’s hometown in Qingzhou Xiaojing Village to ensure the details must be accurate.

Zhang Laifu took a brush and drew a Lucky Charm on the two pieces of yellow paper with cinnabar, which required full concentration and was very draining.

He wasn’t highly skilled, having learned some basics of this Evil Technique from a heretic long ago, never expecting to use it someday.

After drawing the charms, he was sweating heavily on his forehead, feeling exhausted.

But it was not the time to rest, he stuck the two charms on Shen You’an and Yu Ruohuan’s foreheads separately.

The charm with Shen You’an’s birthdate and time was placed on Yu Ruohuan’s forehead, while the one with Yu Ruohuan’s birthdate and time was on Shen You’an’s.

The birthdate and time are closely linked to a person’s fate, exchanging the charms is exchanging fate.

The altar was already set, paying respect to the gods of heaven and earth.

Zhang Laifu glanced at the moonlight outside the window, the time had come,

"The heavens and earth have inverted, yin and yang have reversed, seizing her fate, offering it to you, Xuanming."

"Karma not sticking to the body, cause and effect all turn to dust!"

"Rahu Ketu, hurry as the law commands."

Standing by the door, Zhao Lin watched this scene, his brows furrowed deeply.

Though he’s been in the army for years, he’s not entirely ignorant.

How could the young miss be so foolish, hiring a worthless Taoist to perform such absurd activities?

He’s not brainless, this is fate-borrowing, isn’t it?

The girl tied up was just crowned champion of some math competition today, extremely talented, and a future pillar of Hua Country.

The miss is borrowing her fate...

Zhao Lin felt quite disgusted with this, thinking the young miss’s actions were excessively despicable and sinister. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

He’s loyal, but not blindly so, and serving someone like this suddenly felt just as sorrowful to him.
