Chapter 634 - 634: The Drama Begins
The implication was clear. The more sinister presence than the evil spirit referred to Ye Nanshen and his wife, Rong Qi.
Mrs. Ye Sr.’s brows furrowed deeply. “Master Crescent, do whatever you deem necessary, we will fully cooperate. It’s not up to them to decide for the Nan family!”
Her health at stake, Mrs. Ye Sr. was willing to confront Ye Nanshen head-on if necessary to eliminate the menace.
Crescent declared, “I need a ritual platform to perform the rites and locate the evil spirit, only then can the negative energy be dispelled from this house.”
His words, shrouded in mystery, instilled fear in those present.
With the arrival of the monk, almost everyone in the mansion had gathered to witness his “exorcism”.
Rumors had been circulating about Ye Nanshen being a jinx, supposedly cursing his parents and even himself. Some even whispered that he had married a jinx, and together they brought misfortune to others, including Ye Rong. The crows, the misfortunes, Rong Qi’s arrival coinciding with the downfall of her family, and Ye Nanshen’s miraculous survival in a severe accident three years ago—all were attributed to their supposed ominous nature.
Now, this unexpected accusation seemed like a curse from an ominous being, landing squarely on Ye Nanshen and Rong Qi because of a flock of crows.
Rong Qi, upon hearing this initially, could hardly believe the absurdity people believed in. But now, the situation has taken a more serious turn.
The ritual platform was quickly set up under Mrs. Ye Sr.’s supervision. Crescent began his ritual, chanting and moving as if possessed, capturing everyone’s attention.
Old Master Ye, losing interest, said, “This is boring. Solve your own problems,” intending to return to his pet bird, Little Faye, who had been frightened lately.
Ye Nanshen stopped him, “Aren’t you worried I might tear them apart without you here?”
Old Master Ye retorted, “Can’t you be considerate of my old age?”
“I can’t. Who made you marry a stepmother for my father? You want peace and quiet? No way.”
Old Master Ye was speechless. He thought, ‘How could I be blamed for being deceived by Mrs. Ye Sr.’s pretense?’
Regardless, Ye Nanshen insisted on his presence.
The three of them stood back, watching the Crescent’s performance in the courtyard.
After nearly half an hour, Crescent suddenly shouted, “Evil spirit, show yourself!” He pointed directly towards the direction of Ye Nanshen and Rong Qi’s residence.
“That evil entity is in the eastern quarter! Find it and destroy it immediately!” Crescent bellowed.
Mrs. Ye Sr., her eyes darkening, commanded, “Search immediately!”
Rong Qi, however, smiled slightly at the corner of her lips.
The real drama was about to begin..
