âThis solution of yours means youâll be taking my sonâs life! And making him your son instead!â Song Lihua said furiously.
Ever since she discovered Zhou Liangshengâs betrayal, Song Lihua never once lost her composure and maintained her calm all this time, even until just a moment ago when she heard what Li Zhixiao said.
However, it was impossible for Song Lihua to keep her composure when this matter had implicated her sonâs life.
âSis!â Zheng Binzhou rushed to hold and support Song Lihua. âEverythingâs fine now. They canât harm your child. But if you get angry right now, you and your child will get hurt, rather than them. For the sake of your child and yourself, you shouldnât get so worked up. Itâll be bad if you experience symptoms of a miscarriage.â
âIt will be really dangerous if you go into labor prematurely. Sis, you absolutely need to calm down!â Zheng Binzhou urged.
After being reminded by Zheng Binzhou, Song Lihua hurriedly forced herself to calm down.
But how exactly was she supposed to be calm while dealing with such a matter?!
For the sake of her child, Song Lihua could only tell herself repeatedly to bear with it in order to allow herself to calm down.
However, she soon felt some pain in her belly and covered it with her hand. Her face had become pale.
âSis!â Zheng Binzhouâs expression turned grim. âIâll go call the doctor!â
Xie Jiling rushed to take out a purifying talisman from her bag and stuffed it into Song Lihuaâs hand. âHold this!â
The pain in Song Lihuaâs belly began to subside and eventually disappeared. She sensed that the child in her belly had stabilized.
Her initially explosive rage had quelled as well.
She had calmed down completely.
Song Lihua looked at Xie Jiling with an amazed expression.
Xie Jiling just smiled at her.
Zheng Binzhou then said to Zhou Liangsheng, âZhou Liangsheng, are you even human?! You actually wanted to kill your own flesh and blood! You wanted my nephewâs life just because Li Zhixiao lost her child? Is he not even your son?â
Unexpectedly, Zhou Liangsheng said shamelessly, âBut Xiaoxiao will never be able to give birth ever again. However, your older sisterâs different. She will just lose this child. She can have another in the future. Wonât it be fine if I just have another child with her?â
âScoundrel!â Zheng Binzhou punched Zhou Liangshengâs face, sending him straight to the floor.
âHave another child? That child wonât be this nephew of mine! You want to let an infant spirit possess my nephewâs body! Youâre simply malicious!â Zheng Binzhou got so angry that he threw another punchâthis time, on the other side of Zhou Liangshengâs face.
âHave another child with you? You disgusting man, why should my sis have another child with you?!â Zheng Binzhou raged.
Song Lihua sat on a chair with reddened eyes.
It was fortunate that her child was fine.
Zheng Binzhou was young, but he was extremely reliable at this moment.
He wanted to hit Zhou Liangsheng some more, but Ren Linna stopped him.
âItâs fine if you want to hit him, but donât hit him so hard. He might make you pay for damages. Itâs not worth it,â Ren Linna said.
âThatâs right!â Song Lihua said hurriedly. âBinzhou, donât dirty your hands! This kind of personâjust let him be with Li Zhixiao. Just taking one glance at him now makes me feel disgusted. When I think about how I once had a life together with him, it makes me feel extremely disgusted.â
âBinzhou, donât let him implicate you,â Song Lihua said.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Xin and He Yuliang also hurried to help stop Zheng Binzhou.
Zheng Binzhou was panting with rage, but he still heeded everyoneâs advice.
He stood up and withdrew his hand, hating that he could not flay Zhou Liangsheng.
Yet, it was at this moment that Xie Jiling asked Zhou Liangsheng, âSo the two of you want to place the spirit of that dead child into the body of this child? In that case, where have you contained that childâs spirit?â
Zhou Liangsheng looked at Lu Penghai unconsciously.
âYou should release it,â Xie Jiling said.
Lu Penghai had a rather client-oriented approach.
He first looked at Li Zhixiao.
However, he saw that she was actually still hesitating at this moment.
Song Lihua already knew their intention. Furthermore, with Xie Jiling present, there was no way she would let Li Zhixiaoâs plan happen.
Yet, Li Zhixiao was still refusing to give up.
Xie Jiling said coldly, âIs your heart truly aching for your dead child?â
âHeâs my child. Why wouldnât my heart ache?â Li Zhixiao had a pained expression. âDo you know how painful it was when I saw him come out? Although he was just a small little thing, he was already alive!â
âI could even see his facial features! But⦠But he died just like that! My child! How could my heart not ache for him?!â Li Zhixiao said while she cried.
âSince your heart aches for your child, why do you want to let him turn into an infant spirit?â Xie Jiling questioned coldly.
âDo you not know that becoming an infant spirit is a curse for him?â Xie Jiling said. âInitially, he could have been reincarnated immediately. He died before being born, so he wouldnât have to queue up when he entered the underworld.â
âMoreover, due to his tragic death, he had the chance to be born into an extremely blessed family that will treat him extremely well in his next life. He would have been born into riches and honor and have a smooth-sailing life. This would have been the compensation for his tragic death in this life.â
âBut because you let someone imprison his soul and turn him into an infant spirit, he now carries resentment. Itâs impossible for him to have such a good reincarnation in the next life.â
âIf you succeeded in letting him possess that childâs body⦠This childâs body isnât his in the first place. Additionally, he frightened Song Lihua in her dreams and affected that innocent childâs life. Even if your child possesses that childâs body, thereâs a very high possibility that he will die in a miscarriage.â
âBecause this is a violation of the heavensâ peace, the Mandate of Heaven wonât let him be born so easily. Even if he is born, he will still have a seventy percent chance of being disabled. Mentally challenged, blind, deaf, and dumb, all four limbs atrophiedâthese are possible,â Xie Jiling said coldly.
âYou think that youâre giving your child a second life. But in truth, youâre giving him a second round of suffering.â
âDying in childbirth put him through suffering once, but at least it was only for a short time. But if he is born, his suffering will be for a lifetime. The longer he possesses that childâs body, the greater his sins will be.â
âEven if he is born, he will definitely have a bad ending. After he enters the underworld, his sins will be recorded in the book of life and death. Once heâs in the underworld, he will be punished for each and every one of his sins. Itâs hard to say for sure what his incarnation in the next life will become. Itâs even doubtful whether he will be a human or livestock, and what sort of environment he will be reincarnated into, as all these will be decided by his sins.â
âDid this Great Master Lu tell you all these?â Xie Jilingâs finger was pointing at the already powerless Lu Penghai.
Li Zhixiao looked at Lu Penghai in astonishment.
Lu Penghai truly hadnât told her all that before.
âI⦠I had no ideaâ¦â Lu Penghai felt very wronged.
He truly had no idea.
No one had ever sought him out to do this sort of spell, so he had no experience with it.
Moreover, he had never met anyone from the underworld, so who would he have heard about it from?
Xie Jiling let out a cold laugh. âEven if you didnât lose all of your ability due to the backlash today, I wouldnât have let you continue being an exorcist. With a degenerate like you around, who knows how many innocent souls would be harmed?â
