Chapter 147 - 147: Emperor Yin’s Pressure! The Zuo Family’s Sudden Death (3)

[JI]: Haha, let me decipher that for you.
[JI]: You claim you can draw talismans (a Master of Yin-Yang with the strongest combat ability), but is that your expertise? You just engage in direct fights! If you’re so capable, don’t say you can only draw talismans; why not just say you’re a Master of Yin-yang?
Si Fuqing:
So that’s how it was interpreted?
[NINE]: You win.
[JI]: Damn it, I just realized you also claimed you know a bit of medicine. You’re not donning the identity of some Miracle Doctor, are you?
[NINE]: No, I really only know a bit.
[JI]: Forget it, I can’t get it out of you. Oh, good news, your luck should be gradually returning, right? I sensed it, and the first strand should be collected soon!
[JI]: When the time comes, tell me what happened to the person who stole your luck. I’ll record it and show it to my old man. He can research ways to quickly regain luck, so we don’t have to go through all this trouble.
Si Fuqing’s eyes narrowed slightly, responding with a simple “Alright.”
She then decided to visit the hospital.
At that moment, inside the hospital. “AHH—! ! !
A wretched scream jolted an entire floor.
Four nurses restrained the struggling Fourth Master of the Zuo family: “Sir, calm down! Please, calm down! Get the sedative, quick.”
After administering a sedative, the Fourth Master of the Zuo family gradually stabilized.
However, his eyes were fixated on the ceiling, his body twitching uncontrollably as if undergoing a seizure.
Whenever someone approached, he would scream in terror.
“Contact the psychiatric department,” the physician hastily exited, “We need to conduct a comprehensive brain examination on the patient. Notify his family to get ready.”
Zuo Tianfeng, when he received the call from the hospital, hastily arrived. “What happened? Where do you feel uncomfortable?”
“Big Brother!” Mr. Zuo finally came to his senses. Grabbing Zuo Tianfeng’s hand in a panic, he said, “I had a dream last night. Someone in the dream told me that I had stolen something and now it has to be returned. They won’t leave me alone; they’re going to kill me. What do we do?”
“What sort of nonsense dream is that!” Zuo Tianfeng almost laughed in disbelief, “Who have you stolen from, huh? Are you hallucinating during the
“It’s real, Big Brother!” Mr. Zuo grew frantic, “The dream was too real. Moreover, the reason my health improved is that I had stolen something from someone else. Now that it’s being reclaimed, my body can’t handle it.”
Saying so, he broke down in tears, “Big Brother, if I’d known, I wouldn’t have indulged myself. I regret it now!”
Zuo Tianfeng’s expression changed.
While he didn’t believe his younger brother’s dream story, the statement seemed plausible.
The Fourth Master of the Zuo family had inexplicably become healthy and now had suddenly deteriorated.
Worse, the Fourth Master of the Zuo family had led an indulgent lifestyle over the years, deteriorating his health further.
“Calm down and stop thinking about dreams,” Zuo Tianfeng could only console him, “Here’s what I’ll do: I’ll go to the temple and get a protection talisman for you. Why believe in dreams when the doctors just said you were improving?” At this point, the Fourth Master of the Zuo family finally calmed down.
He nodded, preparing to rest for a while. Suddenly his face twisted in pain: “Big Brother! Bi—”
As if all energy was drained in an instant, the Fourth Master of the Zuo family’s following words were stuck in his throat.
His hand fell limp; his eyes were wide open, lifeless.
“Doctor! Doctor!” Zuo Tianfeng panicked, “Quick, come! Doctor!”
The physician hurried over.
However, this time, not even the ICU was needed.
After the examination, the doctor shook his head and sighed, “Mr. Zuo, prepare for the inevitable. The patient’s heart has completely stopped beating, all organs have failed; there’s no saving him.”
Meaning, the Fourth Master of the Zuo family was already dead, and quite thoroughly so.
“What are you saying?!” Zuo Tianfeng was incredulous, “Just yesterday, you all said his condition had stabilized.”
“Mr. Zuo, we’re also puzzled,” the physician hesitated, “The patient had indeed improved, but just now, all attempts at resuscitation failed.” At this, even Zuo Tianfeng’s worldview was shaken.
Could there reallv be something supernatural at plav?
Had the Zuo family been tainted by something unclean, bringing bad luck?
Outside the sickroom, Si Fuqing looked down, her eyes icy cold.
The Fourth Master of the Zuo family had made advances on her as well, but she had skillfully evaded him.
As doctors and nurses hustled in and out of the sickroom, no one noticed her.
She looked down and responded a word to JI Xingzhi.
[NINE]: Died.
[JI]: The first one is already dead? Damn, your luck is kind of terrifying. Alright, let’s look at the second one, see if there’s any pattern.
Si Fuqing glanced at Zuo Xianyu and Zuo Qingya rushing from downstairs. She adjusted her hat and descended the staircase.
On the Chen family’s side, everything had been thoroughly sealed and confiscated.
The Chen family head was taken to an enclosed room.
Even now, his thoughts were in disarray, his mind felt foggy.
How could his family be gone just like that overnight?
Just as the Chen family head was on the brink of collapse, the door swung open. He lifted his head in haste, only to find a stranger, which filled him with panic once more. “Who…who are you?!”
“Chen Shiming, right?” Feng San walked in and slapped a file down in front of him. “Take a look at these. Are they your doing?”
With trembling hands, the Chen family head took the file and only flipped through one page before collapsing into his chair.
“Oh, and there’s this.” Feng San took out several more papers. “You really are all cut from the same cloth.”
The papers detailed the deeds of Mrs. Chen over the years.
The Chen family head’s eyes bulged in rage. “That wretched woman!” He knew that Mrs. Chen was inevitably involved.
“Good, you don’t deny it.” Feng San nodded and signaled for two guards to enter. “In that case, time for some introspection.”
“No… no, no, no! I want to see Mr. Yu Qishan!” The Chen family head struggled.
“No, you can’t tie me up, let me go! I still have a deal with the Yu family!”
“Do you think you can afford to offend the Yu family?”
At these words, he saw both guards who had come in burst into laughter.
The Chen family head was hysterical. “Why, why are you laughing?!”
“Laughing at your ignorance. Miss Yu Tang is the treasure of the Yu family. You kidnapped her and expect to walk away unscathed?” Feng San leaned in. “Let’s step back for a moment, the relationship between Miss Si and her master is incredibly close.”
“And you, the Chen family, why did you happen to target these two?”
