Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser-Chapter 1448 - 1448 The Truth

1448 The Truth

Old Master Qi took a closer look at the expression on Celestial Master Zhang’s face. Seeing his frown, his heart thumped and he hurriedly said, “Celestial Master Zhang, if you have something to say, just say it. If this place is really a good place, why would something happen to Zhenbai? Is there something fishy going on here?”

After asking the question, Old Master Qi waited for Celestial Master Zhang’s answer, but Celestial Master Zhang suddenly shook his head and said, “This place was indeed well-chosen. The other Daoists were right: If the ancestral grave is moved here, your descendants will definitely be blessed for generations.”

The more Old Master Qi listened to Celestial Master Zhang, the deeper his frown became. He examined Celestial Master Zhang’s face and saw that he really wasn’t lying. Could it be that he had misunderstood his fourth son?

While Old Master Qi was deep in thought, Celestial Master Zhang suddenly changed the subject. “Elder Qi, this place is really good, but it’s not suitable for the Qi family, let alone Young Master Qi.”

Old Master Qi narrowed his eyes and stared carefully at Celestial Master Zhang. The latter continued unhurriedly, “Elder Qi, have you ever heard the phrase, ‘Extreme prosperity is bound to decline’? What I’m saying is that sometimes, going too far might not be a good thing. Firstly, the Qi family is already the number one family in the capital. You’re a semi-retired marshal, but you still hold a lot of military power. The Qi family can be said to be incomparably prosperous in the capital. Now that your Qi family’s ancestral grave has been moved here, it might not necessarily be good or prosperous for you. Secondly, I’ve looked at Young Master Qi’s fate before. He has an extremely hallowed fate; even all of the Qi family can’t suppress it. If he had been born in olden and troubled times, he would have been a powerful emperor. In this modern era, however, this fate is too heavy, which is why Young Master Qi’s health has never been good. Now that your Qi family has moved the ancestral grave to a place with such vigorous dragon qi, Young Master Qi’s fate is too heavy, and his body is unable to suppress it. If the ancestral grave is not moved elsewhere as soon as possible, I’m afraid it won’t be good for Young Master Qi… and he might die prematurely!”

Celestial Master Zhang had been very tactful when he said “it won’t be good.” Old Master Qi could still hear the true meaning in his words, especially when he heard the last half of the Master’s sentence. Old Master Qi’s heart seemed to freeze, and his whole body turned cold. His fingers couldn’t help but tremble. His face was filled with disbelief as he repeated in a shaky voice, “Celestial Master… Celestial Master Zhang, if the ancestral grave of my Qi family isn’t moved back, will Zhenbai really… die prematurely?”

Although the Qi family patriarch asked this question, he already believed Celestial Master Zhang’s words.

Celestial Master Zhang continued, “As for Young Master Qi vomiting blood and fainting, it should be the result of his fate colliding with this dragon qi. In addition, the ancestral grave of the Qi family has been moved here, making Young Master Qi’s fate even heavier. Such a fate shouldn’t exist in this world. In short, moving the grave is harmful to Young Master Qi and no good at all, and it’s the same for the Qi family! On the contrary, there’s no need to do much. As long as Young Master Qi is around, although the blessings won’t last for generations, the good fortune and value which Young Master Qi brings to the Qi family will still allow you to be blessed for four to five generations.”

After confirming that moving the grave here really wasn’t good for Zhenbai and the Qi family, Old Master Qi’s face changed drastically. He couldn’t care less about the feng shui of choosing a date and following all sorts of rules, and immediately arranged for the Qi family’s ancestral grave to be moved back to its original location.

After listening to Old Master Qi give the instructions, Celestial Master Zhang heaved a sigh of relief. However, he didn’t want to get involved in the Qi family’s affairs. He could now see that while this involved moving the ancestral grave on the surface, someone had in fact set up a meticulous trap for Young Master Qi to take his life, and even wanted to make the Qi family pay a price.

Old Master Qi shared Celestial Master Zhang’s thoughts at that moment. It looked like a small matter on the surface, but in fact, his fourth son had colluded with outsiders to set a meticulous trap for Zhenbai and even the Qi family. Not only did they want Zhenbai’s life, they probably also wanted to take down the Qi family.

It was very likely that his fourth son and the people behind him had ill intentions when they found this place. They played tricks aimed at taking Zhenbai’s life.

The fourth son was probably being used by someone to deal with the Qi family, and it was most likely the fourth son who had leaked the matter of Zhenbai’s fate to outsiders, which was why they were targeting him.

The more Old Master Qi thought about that useless and ambitious fourth son, the angrier he became. He almost fainted from fury.

He didn’t believe that this matter had nothing to do with his fourth son at all, let alone that his fourth son had moved the grave purely for the family’s sake.

Everything that had happened was probably a ploy cooked up by his fourth son with an outside party in order to lure Zhenbai into a trap. The other party had even accurately taken into account both Old Master Qi and Zhenbai’s thoughts and weaknesses.

The more Old Master Qi thought about it, the angrier he became. His lungs almost exploded, and his anger was stuck in his chest. His face turned a few shades paler. If his fourth son was in front of him right now, he would have smashed that animal to death with his cane.

If that beast really had capability, would Old Master Qi overlook him in the first place?

Old Master Qi had always felt that just as you should eat only as much as your stomach could handle, you should only do as much as your capability allowed. However, Fourth Brother Qi had always felt that the old man was biased, and he never felt that he was inferior to Zhenbai at all.

Old Master Qi used to think that in the end, this was his youngest son; no matter what his fourth son did to Zhenbai, Old Master Qi still couldn’t cut ties with this son. He thought that his fourth son would change and figure things out. However, he had completely overestimated that animal. His fourth son was crooked to the core – how could he be pulled back onto the right path?

His fourth son had already colluded with outsiders to murder Zhenbai; if Old Master Qi continued to be biased, not to mention other people, he himself would feel cold.

Thinking this, a ruthless and sharp light flashed in Old Master Qi’s fierce eyes. He regained his composure and said to Celestial Master Zhang, “Thank you, Celestial Master Zhang!”
