A Cutie Spoiled by Her Seven Uncles-Chapter 106: Live Sacrifice (Thank you Time @ Separation for the additional monthly ticket)

Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Live Sacrifice (Thank you Time @ Separation for the additional monthly ticket)

Li Yanyan was also terrified at this moment. Her tears fell, drop by drop.

"WHIMPER... Don’t kill me!" she cried. "I’m a child born under a lucky star. People say that if someone bullies me, they will suffer great misfortune. If you kill me, you’ll definitely suffer great misfortune. Great Wizard, can you spare my life?"

"Rest assured, in today’s ritual, you won’t die!"

Today’s ritual required a total of forty-nine boys and girls, but only forty-eight of them would die. The forty-ninth was this child with immense luck. She would be a living sacrifice, placed into a crystal coffin filled with various Arrays that would turn her into one of the living dead. Then, carrying the national fortune of Great Han, she would be transported to the royal court of Nanjiang. From then on, she would be the source of Nanjiang’s national destiny.

"Really? Great Wizard, you’re not going to kill me?"

Upon hearing that she wouldn’t die, Li Yanyan’s face filled with excitement and uncontainable joy.

The Great Wizard nodded. "Naturally. Child, come and stand by my side. I will lead you in praying to the heavens together. May all the good fortune in the world gather upon you, may you henceforth have endless good luck, and may you pray for blessings for our Nanjiang royal family!"

The Great Wizard beckoned to Li Yanyan.

Li Yanyan obediently approached.

When Li Yanyan reached the Great Wizard’s side, two Soldiers carried over a small crystal coffin and placed it directly in front of her.

Seeing the crystal coffin, Li Yanyan’s small body flinched in fright, and she stumbled back several steps!

"Go in, child. This is your destined place."

Her destined place?

Li Yanyan was panic-stricken. Even at her young age, though she didn’t understand what the Altar before her represented, seeing this coffin placed here, she knew it wasn’t anything good.

"No! I won’t go in! I want to go home! I’m Little Lucky Charm! My mother will ask Village Chief Grandpa to save me! I won’t go in! I am a chosen one of Heaven! I don’t want to get into a coffin! I don’t want to die!"

Terrified, Li Yanyan turned to flee, but how could she possibly escape from the Great Wizard?

The Great Wizard merely lifted his hand, and it was as if an invisible wall appeared before Li Yanyan, preventing her from taking another step forward.

"Wh-what’s happening? Why can’t I pass through?"

Li Yanyan was so frightened, tears streamed down her face.

A strange smile appeared on the Great Wizard’s wrinkled face. He pointed at the crystal coffin and said to Li Yanyan, "You can walk over there, child. Look, the path is right there. There is a bed. Go lie down obediently!"

As soon as the Great Wizard finished speaking, Li Yanyan immediately stopped crying. Her face became numb, and her eyes turned vacant. Like a Marionette, she walked towards the crystal coffin.

Ji Youlin, hidden in the tree, witnessed this scene, his face filled with horror.

Is this the Witchcraft of Nanjiang? To be able to control someone’s mind with just a slight wave of the hand?

Li Yanyan climbed into the coffin herself and lay down obediently. It was now high noon; the auspicious time had arrived.

The Great Wizard struck the Altar forcefully with the staff in his hand and announced loudly, "The auspicious time has arrived! The ritual begins! Everyone, please pray with me to the Heavens!"

"Yes!"

The Great Wizard spread his arms, his staff pointing towards the sky. He began to murmur, chanting an invocation.

As the invocation was chanted, a red light emanated from the tip of the Great Wizard’s staff, shining directly into the coffin.

The children on the Altar each had a knife held to their necks.

They were now waiting for the red light to disappear, at which point they would slit these children’s throats, letting their blood soak this altar. Then, as the defiled altar reflected the Dragon Vein of Great Han, Nanjiang’s goal of transferring Great Han’s national destiny would be achieved.
