My Lady Always Lacks Ambition-Chapter 1049 - 1019: Dog Eat Dog, an All-Out Brawl!

Stepping off General Zheng’s carriage, Qin Liuxi produced the Soul Nourishing Bottle, called forth the Ghost Baby, and cast a skill on him.

"I’ve placed a karma spell on you, lead the way and find your enemy."

Little Ginseng exclaimed in surprise, "Isn’t it enough that you helped the Mo Family naturally conceive after handling the Ghost Baby affair? You’re still looking to trouble that Evil Taoist? I thought you’d let it go."

Judging from Qin Liuxi’s attitude towards Mo Wenpei at the Mo Family, he really thought Qin Liu wouldn’t bother with who caused this mess, but now it seemed he was determined to see it through.

Qin Liuxi pointed to Teng Zhao’s clothes and said, "If Zhaozhao is the one who dug up the grave, he’s the one who will suffer. And at that time, it won’t stop at just damaged clothes. This matter is far from over." A gentleman must exact revenge; overnight grudges are even less acceptable—they must be settled.

Here we go again with the protection!

Little Ginseng said, "How could one go so far? Killing the child is one thing, but to trap the soul—even using a talisman could suffice. Yet he sets an array at the grave to bury talismans, preventing anyone from destroying the grave. What kind of animosity and grievance is this? Such heavy scheming."

"By setting an array and burying talismans at the tomb, when someone alters the array, firstly, it can warn and punish the grave-digger while also destroying the grave. Secondly, it protects the items within the grave, maintaining the ability to trap the ghost and lock the soul. Thirdly, it’s a notification. If someone disturbs the grave, it likely indicates the underworld is revealed, allowing for early preparation," Qin Liuxi speculated on the opponent’s intent.

Little Ginseng clicked his tongue, "This person probably has eight hundred schemes."

A flash of coldness passed through Qin Liuxi’s eyes; he didn’t care how many schemes there were—as he was weak, take his life, crush him!

Yet, when the Ghost Baby led them to a large mansion, Qin Liuxi raised an eyebrow.

Goodness gracious, the Evil Taoist was actually in the Princess Si Yi Mansion?

This truly was interesting. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

That Princess Si Yi, having someone skilled in cultivating poison insects, now also has an obvious Evil Taoist in her manor—what on earth is she planning?

Qin Liuxi immediately thought of that person, the one constantly targeting Tong Miao’er with the surname Song—their troublesome pregnancy; wasn’t the Evil Taoist planning to exploit it?

This was shaping up to be a dog-eat-dog, biting fur frenzy!

Within the high-walled compound, the middle-aged Daoist sat cross-legged on the cushion to regulate his breath, yet his mind was restless. The more he activated the True Qi within, the more he felt tightness swelling in his chest, blood surging, and his face flushed crimson.

An ominous sensation.

At that moment, a sharp sudden query at the doorway caused his Qi Mechanism, which was circulating, to halt and reverse, causing acute heart pain. A trickle of black blood seeped again from the corner of his mouth, his breath becoming increasingly feeble and sapped.

Daoist Yi Yang opened his eyes, looking towards the doorway where a woman adorned in lavish attire and a red hairpin with flamboyant features stood; a flash of Vicious Energy passed quickly through his eyes.

"Daoist, what happened to you?" Princess Si Yi exclaimed in shock, looking at Daoist Yi Yang, who seemed to have aged ten years, fearing he might be dying.

Daoist Yi Yang replied deeply, "I merely suffered some backlash. What brings the Commandery Princess here?"

"Backlash, who did this?" Princess Si Yi frowned, saying, "You wouldn’t be in trouble, would you? Your disciple is deceased—isn’t she as worthless as you? She helped me before; it can’t be abandoned halfway."

Daoist Yi Yang’s expression soured. With a dark face, he said, "If the Princess doubts this humble Daoist, you are welcome to seek other able individuals."

He gestured to stand.

Princess Si Yi quickly smiled apologetically, "I didn’t mean that. I’m saying, since you finally had a talented disciple skilled in handling poisons, now that she’s dead, you should avenge her, right? I’ve already inquired—Zuo Family’s second branch has returned with an associate of yours entering the city together. I’ve heard they were heading south to Qingping Temple to seek someone to treat that waste, yet they returned halfway, likely meeting a powerful Heavenly Master who broke the Soul-devouring Gu."

Upon saying this, her eyes turned dark and ugly.

About Left Zong Jun and that Bitch Lin’s child, she had someone poison it, expecting good news of the little girl’s demise. Unexpectedly, the one who died was the Gu Woman suffering intense backlash.

With the Gu Woman’s death, she had sent people to invite the master of the Gu Woman, essentially Daoist Yi Yang before her, while investigating the news concerning Zuo Zongjun’s family. Although they kept it tight, she learned they were assisted by a Heavenly Master but couldn’t discern if it was indeed someone from Qingping Temple.

It’s unsurprising Princess Si Yi didn’t fully uncover this information. Firstly, the Zuo Family kept it well-concealed, and they hadn’t publicly announced Qin Liuxi’s arrival in Shengjing. Secondly, Qin Liuxi herself remained low-key, thus some remained unaware of her presence.

But Qin Liuxi challenging Prince Zhao today—likely some would spread the news.

With one plan failed, Princess Si Yi naturally felt displeased. Hence, she spent substantial Silver using the Gu Woman’s revenge as the lure, to have Daoist Yi Yang target those with the surname Zuo again.

Her attendants reported that Daoist Yi Yang seemed to face significant problems, prompting her urgent rush here. Witnessing this, her heart went stone cold.

That near-death ghostly visage—a far cry from battling Zuo Zongjun’s waste—he mightn’t even resolve her own affairs; having cultivated the lure, she’d better not ruin it at the entrance!

While Princess Si Yi schemed, Daoist Yi Yang was no less calculating.

For his disciple, he had descended into the city, yet hadn’t found those responsible when he suffered backlash, which stemmed from a spell set decades ago being broken.

His combatants were two, originating from the same sect—they were either fellow disciples or perhaps a master-apprentice pair.

Moreover, these two’s Taoism skills weren’t inferior!

Daoist Yi Yang sensed foreboding, increasingly displeased with Princess Si Yi’s questioning and scheming demeanor, realizing this malicious moron carried a plethora of sins—reeked with darkness so thick it oiled—daring to doubt him? If he stayed, executing her mean streak might ensnare him similarly as his disciple.

Most crucially, this ominous premonition was severely unsettling.

As if something approached to crush him dead.

Live to fight another day—as backlash grew severe, he’d better retreat to the cave to recuperate; regarding Silver, so long as he retained his skillset, where couldn’t he earn it? But once life is forfeited, that’s true despair.

Upon deciding, Daoist Yi Yang decisively stood and said, "Concerning the Gu Woman’s revenge, I’ve caught the scent and am ready to confront. Commandery Princess, please reconsider."

"Leave now? In your current state? Doesn’t seem wise," Princess Si Yi was oblivious that Daoist Yi Yang intended to betray her and escape, merely frowning deeply wondering how he intended to avenge—seemed more like seeking death!
