Chapter 154 - 154 154 Retribution
?Chapter 154: Chapter 154 Retribution Chapter 154: Chapter 154 Retribution At midnight, Luo Ning’s cell phone rang.
Lu Xun’s voice came through the receiver, “The Liu Family’s affairs have been almost dealt with, but the person behind the scenes has escaped.”
Luo Ning sat up and asked, “What happened?”
“We had sealed off the Liu Family’s ancestral home and all locations maintained by the Feng Shui mages, yet we didn’t see the mastermind behind the Liu Family who arranged the Luck Changing Array.”
Lu Xun paused and said, “I found out he appeared at the hospital after Liu Shaoxian’s car accident, but after he left the hospital, he vanished without a trace.”
“The surveillance footage that captured him is all blurred, and later it all turned into static.”
Luo Ning said, “That old guy is quite alert, he definitely sensed the danger and ran away in advance.”
As for destroying the surveillance footage, it would be simple by introducing a bit of evil spirit.
“At the Fengshui Xuanhui, it has been decided to issue a national wanted notice in the Geomancy Xuanxue circles for Liu Er, and our special department will cooperate.”
Lu Xun paused and said, “Can you find him on your side?”
He wanted Luo Ning to act mainly for her sake.
The issues with the Liu Family primarily started with Luo Ning helping Xiao Yu, and then she broke Liu Shaoxian’s luck, relegating the Liu Family to the past.
He was afraid that if they couldn’t find that old guy now, he might target Luo Ning in the future.
Luo Ning guessed Lu Xun’s intent right away, “Okay, I’ll try.”
She didn’t hang up the phone but instead reached under her pillow and pulled out three copper coins to perform a divination.
Looking at the divination, she furrowed her brows, “That old fellow’s cultivation is not low, and crucially, he has the luck of the Luck Changing Array enhancing him, using this luck to conceal his movements.”
“From here, I can only vaguely ascertain that he headed south, but exactly where, I don’t know.”
Her realm was still too low; if she were to reach the Innate Realm, she could figure it out even though the other party had luck enhancing him.
However, fate is predetermined, and Luo Ning was very calm now.
For her, Liu Shaoxian was the greatest disaster.
After dealing with Liu Shaoxian and Xiang Jun, Luo Ning’s state of mind has grown much more stable, which was a good thing, so there was no need to force things.
Lu Xun said with some worry, “I’m afraid he might want to seek revenge on you.”
Luo Ning replied, “It’s okay, as long as the Luck Array at the Liu Family’s ancestral home is broken, he will be severely injured by the backlash, and he won’t be able to cause trouble for a while.”
By the time that old guy recovers, she would have likely entered the Innate Realm and need not fear facing him.
Hearing Luo Ning’s indifferent tone, Lu Xun felt reassured.
He said with a hint of helplessness, “Speaking of the Luck Changing Array, you’ll still have to trouble yourself to make a trip to the Liu Family’s ancestral home.”
“The two Daoists from the Fengshui Xuanhui who came are not skilled at breaking arrays, so we still need you to try.”
Luo Ning said with a light laugh, “No problem, I’ll head there now.”
“I’ll come pick you up.”
“It’s okay, I’ll drive over myself.”
“The roads are slick with rain; it’s not good to drive. My car is already out; let me come to pick you up.”
Hearing him insist, Luo Ning no longer refused, “Okay, then I’ll wait for you.”
Half an hour later, Lu Xun and Luo Ning arrived at the Liu Family’s ancestral home.
By then, personnel from the security bureau had already taken the Liu Family people away for interrogation, leaving only Han Lie, three special department personnel, and two Daoists wearing Daoist robes, one old and one young.
The old Daoist raised his hand upon seeing Lu Xun, “Minister Yang, long time no see.”
Lu Xun also raised his hand, “Daoist Qingyuan, stay safe!”
Then he introduced him to Luo Ning, “This is Daoist Qingyuan from the Fengshui Xuanhui, and also a master from Qingyang Mountain.”
Qingyang Mountain is a very famous Daoist temple, hosting several prestigious Feng Shui Xuan Shu masters.
Hearing him introduce the woman beside him wearing a mask as himself, Daoist Qingyuan felt, not sure if he was mistaken, that the Minister’s voice even carried a warmth.
Before, he was ice-cold and emotionless towards anyone.
At the same time, he felt a slight affinity with this mysterious young woman, indicating that she was likely on the same path as him.
He took the initiative to ask, “Who might this be?”
“This is a new colleague in our special department, codenamed Yue, and she is also a master of Feng Shui Xuan Shu.”
“I specifically requested her presence to break the Liu Family’s Qi Fortune Array.”
Luo Ning politely smiled and said, “Greetings, Daoist Qingyuan!”
“Hello, Master Yue.” Daoist Qingyuan was truly astonished; he hadn’t expected this young woman to be the one breaking the array.
He wondered if Minister Yang was underestimating the Qi Fortune Array of the Liu Family.
He had tried many methods to break it just moments ago and had even thought about seeking help from the Fengshui Xuanhui.
However, he did not show it, “Since that is the case, I would appreciate it if Master Yue could give it a try.”
Without further conversation, they went directly to the location where the Array was set up.
Then Daoist Qingyuan saw her take out a compass filled with a dense Vital Energy and step into a special arrangement.
He was amazed, for with his Eye Power, he could naturally tell that this compass was a top-tier Magic Artifact.
Luo Ning was quite knowledgeable about arrays and soon discovered that outside the Liu Family’s Qi Fortune Array, another deceptive array had been set to confuse their peers.
This was why Daoist Qingyuan had been unable to decipher it.
She took out the Thousand-Year-Old Evil Spirit Dagger, removed the yellow paper, and plunged it into the center of the array, using the evil spirit to permeate the array.
This scene left Daoist Qingyuan stunned; he hadn’t expected her to locate the center of the array so quickly.
And to see such a deadly weapon filled with such intense evil spirit energy.
He became significantly more cautious; it seemed that Master Yue came from a powerful Fengshui Family.
About an hour later, the evil spirit had eroded the entire Qi Fortune Array.
Luo Ning softly said, “Break!”
Suddenly there was a flash of lightning and thunder outside, and everyone heard a “crack” as a jade sculpture in the room spontaneously shattered bit by bit into dust.
Daoist Qingyuan was amazed, “Master Yue is young, but her proficiency in Feng Shui Arrays is quite high!”
Truly a case of ‘the student surpasses the teacher.’
Lu Xun proudly smiled and said, “Master Yue is indeed impressive.”
Daoist Qingyuan was startled and looked at Lu Xun inexplicably; it was the first time he heard the minister praise someone, with an emotion other than coldness.
As soon as the Qi Fortune Array broke, the Liu Family people all immediately felt dizzy and weak, as if they had been severely ill.
Many of them would never think of leaving prison in this lifetime, and even those not imprisoned would spend the rest of their lives in poverty and despair.
At that moment, on a train heading south, Liu Er sat up from his berth, suddenly feeling a tightness in his chest.
He immediately grabbed a handkerchief to cover his mouth, and cough after cough, he spat out black blood, his complexion turning ghastly pale and his breath much weaker.
Even worse, his initially black hair quickly turned white, and he aged decades.
It was the middle of the night, and the fellow passengers did not notice his unusual condition.
Liu Er’s face contorted with ugliness, even twisted with it.
He had not expected the Qi Fortune Array to be broken so quickly, and the backlash was severe, having lost much of his cultivation.
He harbored a bitter hatred, for whoever had ruined his plans and brought him and the Liu Family to this lowly state, he would wait for them.
Meanwhile, Liu Shaoxian, who was still unconscious in the hospital after surgery, emitted wisps of white vapour from his body.
His complexion worsened dramatically, aging over a decade overnight.
The Liu Family was finished, and from now on, he would fall from his high position to live a life of destitution in a wheelchair.
This was the retribution for the Liu Family after harming many innocents.
