Chapter 66 Backlash, Vomiting Blood, Mr. Zhao 2 Dog
He was Liu Qingxuan's only direct disciple, and studied metaphysics and magic under his master for more than ten years.
In Beijing's elite circles, Mr. Zhao was highly respected and unmatched.
Having grown accustomed to smooth sailing, he naturally didn't take Shen Yu, whom he had never met before, seriously.
Even though Jiang Manli had made it very clear, he still felt that Shen Yu was nothing special and could not possibly be more powerful than him.
Looking at his confident demeanor, Jiang Manli felt her agitation subside somewhat.
She had no other choice but to ask Liu Qingxuan's disciple, Zhao Ergou, for help when Liu Qingxuan was in seclusion.
Liu Qingxuan was a renowned feng shui master in Beijing and the person most trusted by her biological mother, Liu Wanhua.
Before he went into seclusion this time, he specifically instructed that if there was anything, he could ask his apprentice Zhao Ergou for help.
Therefore, her plans against Jiang Xinlan failed one after another, and she was extremely wary of Shen Yu, so she placed all her hopes on Zhao Ergou.
"Mr. Zhao, you can't say that."
Jiang Manli looked at him, her tone becoming somewhat somber.
"This Shen Yu not only protects Jiang Xinlan, but he has also ruined a lot of our plans. Keeping him around will only cause trouble sooner or later. The reason I came to you this time is to ask you to go to Jiangcheng to help me deal with this Shen Yu, and also... get rid of Jiang Xinlan completely."
A fierce glint flashed in her eyes as she gritted her teeth and said:
"As long as you can get this done, price is not an issue; I'll give you this amount."
She stretched out her hand and made an eight-shaped gesture.
"Eight million?" Zhao Ergou's eyes lit up, then he smiled and waved his hand.
"Miss, don't worry. Even if you don't give me a single penny, let alone eight million, with my master's instructions, I'll definitely handle it perfectly for you."
"Don't even mention one Shen Yu, even if there were ten, I could make sure they never leave alive, and I guarantee that Jiang Xinlan will never be in your way again."
He was talking about what his master had instructed him to do, but he didn't go into details about what it was, and Jiang Manli didn't ask any further questions.
All she knew was that this was a plan devised by Liu Wanhua and Liu Qingxuan, and it had been in the works for many years. Liu Wanhua never let her ask about the specifics of what it entailed; she was simply instructed to follow Liu Qingxuan's instructions.
All she needed to know was that these plans were all designed to secure her position as the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, ensuring her a life of wealth and honor.
Anyway, they are all her relatives. They would not harm her. They only hope that she will get better and better and live a life of wealth and glory.
Zhao Ergou was patting his chest and making a promise when, halfway through his sentence, his face suddenly turned pale, and his heart felt as if it had been hit hard by a heavy hammer. A metallic taste instantly welled up in his throat.
"puff--"
A mouthful of blood suddenly spurted from his mouth, splattering onto the tea table in front of him. The snow-white tea towel was instantly stained red, a shocking sight.
Zhao Ergou staggered forward, almost falling off his chair.
He clutched his chest in disbelief, his face ashen, and cold sweat beading on his forehead.
Jiang Manli was startled by this sudden scene, jumped up from her chair, and asked in a trembling voice:
"Mr. Zhao! What's wrong?! Why are you suddenly vomiting blood?!"
"Impossible... How could this be..."
Zhao Ergou clutched his chest, panting heavily, his eyes filled with horror.
"My chess pieces in Jiangcheng have been broken... not only the talisman array was broken, but the talisman array also backfired on me..."
He couldn't understand how his life-threatening and luck-absorbing array could be so easily broken, and even how it could backfire on him through the array.
You should know that this life-threatening luck-absorbing array is a technique passed down from his master.
Ordinary feng shui masters can't even find the key point of the formation, let alone break it! Who on earth has such great abilities?!
"Chess pieces? What chess pieces?"
Jiang Manli frowned, looking completely bewildered, and asked, unable to understand what Zhao Ergou was saying at all.
Zhao Ergou gasped for breath for a long time before catching his breath. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face so gloomy it could drip water, and gritted his teeth, saying:
"These are the people whose destinies are compatible that Master asked me to arrange before he went into seclusion, to stabilize your luck, Miss. This one in Jiangcheng was the most compatible. I spent three years setting up this arrangement, but today it was completely uprooted, and I even suffered a backlash!"
Upon hearing that the auspicious arrangement Liu Qingxuan had made for her had been ruined, Jiang Manli was immediately enraged:
"Jiangcheng? Could it be Shen Yuqian's again?!"
A glint of ruthlessness flashed in Zhao Ergou's eyes as he gritted his teeth and said:
"No matter who he is, he dared to ruin my master's plans and hurt me, Zhao Ergou! I will never let him get away with this!"
He had originally planned to take Jiang Manli's money and then leisurely go to Jiangcheng.
But now, not only has his plan been broken, but he has also suffered a backlash and been injured. This is no longer about money; it's about ruining his and his master's reputation!
Seeing the fierce look in his eyes, Jiang Manli felt much more at ease and quickly said:
"Mr. Zhao, what do you think we should do next?"
"What do we do?" Zhao Ergou sneered, his eyes filled with malice.
"I'm heading to Jiangcheng tomorrow! I want to see who this guy is who dares to ruin my plans! And while I'm at it, I'll take care of Shen Yu and Jiang Xinlan for you, settling both old and new scores!"
He had been involved in the metaphysics circle for over a decade and had never suffered such a great loss.
This time when he goes to Jiangcheng, he is determined to make those who broke the formation pay a bloody price.
He didn't take the person who broke the formation seriously at all, regarding him only as a feng shui master who knew a little bit about feng shui.
Little did he know that he was about to face a Celestial Venerable who had returned from his tribulation, an existence he could never afford to offend in this lifetime.
Seeing his confident demeanor, Jiang Manli felt relieved.
Indeed, what is she worried about?
She had witnessed Liu Qingxuan's unpredictable abilities since childhood, and he had never failed.
As Liu Qingxuan's personal disciple, Mr. Zhao's abilities are also extraordinary.
With him taking action, how could we possibly fail to subdue Shen Yu, who has been missing for six years and whose whereabouts are unknown?
Just wait, Shen Yu, Jiang Xinlan.
Your good days are over.
