Chapter 757 - The Curse (32) 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚

Ji Cheng and Liwei watched in a daze as Zhao Ming flipped her tote bag on the ground, revealing the two boxes, a silver-carved box, the other was a blue-velvet case. She opened the boxes and pulled out the two jade hairpins that have a sharp edge, with gold exquisite flower carving on the edge. They were both identical, and without the different cases, it would have been difficult to identify which one is whose.

The hairpin in the velvet case was Xie Ming's hairpin that she had safely locked in her closet. While the other one in the silver case was the one that has been lost. In the morning when Bai Ju called Liwei, he informed him that he had found the hairpin.

When Ji Cheng and Zhao Ming left the hotel that day, it was dropped near the hot spring. The guard on duty picked up the hairpin and took it with him. The momentary greed caused him a great loss. He took it with him because of how precious it looks, and was happy to find something so expensive and valuable.

However, since the day he picked the hairpin, everything in his life started to go wrong. He got into an accident and fractured his hand, his daughter fell sick. Not only that he fought with his wife and she left the home, while his father grew gravely sick.

All the bad things started to happen at once, which terrified him. At that time, his mother advised him to return the hairpin to the person it belongs to. She told him that she doesn't get good energy from the hairpin and warned him about it. He didn't agree with her first but seeing the series of incidents, he got scared.

When he came to the hotel to return the hairpin, he saw Bai Ju asking the staff to search for the jade hairpin near the hot spring. He got anxious and was thinking of giving up, but Bai Ju spotted him among the crowd because of his suspicious behavior.

After questioning him, he spilled the beans and returned the hairpin to him after telling him whatever happened with him because of the hairpin which was carrying dark energy with it. They were glad that they finally got the hairpin but they couldn't believe that one hairpin could create so many problems for someone.

Zhao Ming was about to squat on the ground when Xie Ming interrupted, " You can't sit on the ground like this. It is not safe for the baby." she warned her.

Zhao Ming pursed her lips and smiled bitterly, not safe? The whole ritual is not safe and she was not sure what's gonna happen to the child if she went through this dangerous process.

She was not afraid before, but now when she knows that she is pregnant, her motherly instinct was making her afraid. However, what can she do? If they don't do this, there is no guarantee that things will get any better in the future, what if she dies again if the curse doesn't end?

However, she didn't say her thoughts aloud.

Liwei knitted his brows and removed his coat that he was wearing and placed it on the ground for her to sit on. Zhao Ming smiled and sat on the ground over his coat, crossing her legs comfortably. She placed the hairpins in their cases carefully and pulled out white chalk from her bag.

Xie Ming pursed her lips as she saw Zhao Ming making a circle on the ground and drawing a large cross sign inside it. She takes out the candles that she has brought with her and places them on the edges of the cross. Everyone watched in a daze as she prepared the holy circle that she had learned from Shen Jia.

" We need to burn a fire here in the middle of the circle. Bring some dry woods to start the fire," she said at which Ji Cheng, nodded and hurriedly went to search for the woods. There was a huge pile of woods left by the workers for the reconstruction work from which he brought a bundle of woods enough for them to burn a fire.

Zhao Ming turned to Liwei and asked, " Place these woods together in the center of the circle. It should be arranged together so that the woods remain in the center itself."

After the fire was started, she looked at the time and it was 11:59, one minute was left at midnight. She looked at Xie Ming with a dull-sad gaze and smiled bitterly, " Come and sit beside me. It's time we should put an end to all of this."

Xie Ming glanced at Liwei and Ji Cheng before joining Zhao Ming in the process. Her eyes wavered as she can't believe that things are finally coming to an end.

" Zhao Ming, you have to be careful while doing this." Xie Ming glanced at her abdomen worriedly.

Zhao Ming smiled bitterly and held onto her hand tightly. " Don't leave my hand no matter what. Even if you feel the killing pain, never leave my hand," she instructed at which Xie Ming nodded.

" The curse has to end. The ones to be punished have been punished. Now the curse has to end, the curse has to end." They closed their eyes as Zhao Ming started chanting the mantras that Shen Jia has taught her.

Xie Ming gritted her teeth as sweat beads covered her forehead when she felt a strong strength in her hand that Zhao Ming was holding tightly, not letting it go.

Zhao Ming used her powers to combine her and Xie Ming's energy.

Ji Cheng and Liwei' who were standing on the sidelines gulped in worry seeing the royal-blue light forming around their joined hands.

Zhao Ming picked the hairpins and passed one to Xie Ming, she nodded at her before throwing the hairpins into the burning fire.

Her voice turned louder as she repeated the hymns when they threw the hairpins in the fire. The flames turned stronger, and they could feel a piercing pain in their bodies, making it hard for them to hold each other's hand.

Xie Ming who had her eyes closed moaned in pain as along with pain, the painful bloody memories were haunting her. The painful shrieks of that woman crying for her unborn child were ringing in her ears.

The moment where Yuan Song had punched the Emperor for her and accepted the war over her dignity was flashing in front of her eyes. The moment which protected her but burned the whole country.

She put the country at stake for her love and honor.

Zhao Ming winced at the pain but continued repeating, " The carrier of the curse, the hairpin has to be burned, to end the curse and spare the innocent lives."

"It's time to change the end of the cycle of this bloody curse and put everything in place. The distorted timeline has to be set back and fix everything that has been ruined. Those who don't belong from this world have to go back."

" The lovers should unite, and stay where they belong. The separation of long years has to come to an end. Ji Cheng should go back with Xie Ming, Liwei has to stay with Zhao Ming in this world. No heart should be aching again due to separation." she recited their original names and gritted her teeth when she saw a red glow emerging from the burning fire.

The red light was the symbol of the curse covered with the blood of the innocent that has been tormenting her for ages.

The flame of the fire intensified, burning the hairpin with its flames. The full-moon that had been shining on them with it's bright light was forced to be hidden as the clouds gathered in front of it. The quiet night was disturbed with the rustling of the leaves on the trees due to the strong gust of wind, while the sand on the ground started to move along with the wind.

A loud-thunder could be heard in the sky, followed by a white light emerging from the fire, silencing the weak voice of Zhao Ming repeating the hymns. Xie Ming's complexion turned pale and the remaining energy in her body drained out, leaving her unconscious on the ground.
