Chapter 1716 - 1716 Bringing Evil Upon Oneself

1716 Bringing Evil Upon Oneself

After finally dealing with this thing completely, Chi Shuyan heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing that Gu Yunzheng had yet to move, she instead stared intently at the pile of flesh for a while, then at the doll fragments on the floor. After picking up the fragments, she called for Gu Yunzheng to leave with her.

Gu Yunzheng hurriedly followed Fellow Daoist Chi. He hesitated for a moment before he asked, “Fellow Daoist Chi, can I take a look at the fragments?”

Chi Shuyan immediately handed him the fragments. Gu Yunzheng lowered his head to study them seriously as he walked, then turned around to look at the door a few times, afraid that the thing would be revived once more. However, the chances were low now. When he saw that there was no movement behind him, Gu Yunzheng was completely relieved.

The two left together and took the elevator down. When the elevator doors dinged open and stopped on the first floor, Gu Yunzheng’s face froze as he stared at the fragments. He suddenly remembered that the last face on that dirty thing was very similar to the face of the girl surnamed Chai.

Gu Yunzheng was simply horrified at the thought. He was about to tell Fellow Daoist Chi this, when her phone suddenly rang. Fellow Daoist Chi picked up the call first.

“Master Chi, is that you?”

“Mm, it’s me!” After Chi Shuyan picked up the call, she wasn’t surprised to hear Xia Mingcheng’s voice.

Xia Mingcheng mentioned that when he was taking a taxi back with Yuan Yuan, Yuan Yuan suddenly felt a sharp pain on her face halfway. He didn’t think much of it at that time, but the woman next to him suddenly covered her face and screamed and twitched in pain in the car, and her face inexplicably started bleeding, the blood seeping through her fingers. The whole time, she kept saying, “Don’t tear my face off.”

It wasn’t just Xia Mingcheng; the taxi driver was so scared by this supernatural scene that he didn’t dare continue driving. As for Xia Mingcheng, he didn’t care about Yuan Yuan at all, and felt that this was payback, so he was very happy. However, he was also a smart person. With an outsider around, he didn’t rashly abandon her, but sent her to the hospital.

Xia Mingcheng immediately told Master Chi about this and wanted to know how things were going on Master Chi’s end.

“How’s that Yuan person now?” Chi Shuyan asked curiously.

“I’ve already sent her to a nearby hospital. As for that Yuan woman, she fainted from the pain and hasn’t woken up yet. She…” Before Xia Mingcheng could finish speaking, Chi Shuyan heard the faint sound of someone calling his name.

Xia Mingcheng immediately said, “Master Chi, a nurse is calling for me. It should be about that Yuan woman. I’ll go over first. I’ll call you later!”

“Alright!”

Chi Shuyan was about to hang up, when Xia Mingcheng seemed to remember something. Before hanging up, he hurriedly asked, “Wait, Master Chi, right, I want to ask you… how are things coming along?”

Before Xia Mingcheng could hear a response, the hospital nurse came over with a strange expression. Without waiting for Xia Mingcheng to say anything, the nurse spoke first. “Your girlfriend is fine, but she’s unconscious. When she wakes up later, you can take her away.”

The nurse wanted to say something, but hesitated. If it wasn’t for the fact that the girl was indeed unconscious, she would have thought that this was a prank by the couple. After all, after the blood was wiped off, there were no injuries on the girl’s face – it was as if nothing had happened at all.

As for Xia Mingcheng, he was stumped by the nurse’s words and his face darkened slightly. After all, that Yuan woman’s face had bled so much just now. He hoped that she would immediately get her payback, but he didn’t want her to die so easily. If she died so easily, how was that fair to Liling and his other friends?

However, he didn’t want that Yuan woman to not get any payback at all after doing so many bad things. Now that he heard that Yuan Yuan was fine, a sense of hostility and unfairness flared in Xia Mingcheng’s heart.

Chi Shuyan heard the nurse’s words clearly. She heard Xia Mingcheng breathing heavily as he remained silent. His mood was very off, as if he was trying his best to suppress his emotions. It wasn’t difficult for Chi Shuyan to understand what Xia Mingcheng was thinking. She said, “The matter has been resolved on my end. Don’t worry. As the saying goes, what goes around comes around. This Yuan woman has done so many evil things. She won’t be able to escape retribution.”

After the nurse left, what Master Chi said about resolving the matter on her side suddenly sank in – she was probably referring to how she had dealt with that extremely evil and harmful thing that the Yuan woman had summoned. Xia Mingcheng was immediately very excited. He didn’t dare believe it at first, but he trusted Master Chi. If she said it was resolved, it was really resolved.

Xia Mingcheng was overjoyed and his voice shook with excitement. He asked repeatedly for confirmation. Fortunately, Master Chi didn’t find him annoying. After she repeatedly confirmed it, Xia Mingcheng finally relaxed and couldn’t wait to tell Yang Ji and the others immediately.

Xia Mingcheng originally wanted to tell Master Chi about how strange that Yuan woman had been acting when they were shopping, and about the tumor on the inside of her leg. Thinking of the tumor, Xia Mingcheng’s eyes inexplicably turned red. However, before he could speak, a nurse called out to him again. “Young man, your girlfriend is awake. Hurry and go see her. I don’t know what’s wrong, but she’s in a very strange mood. Hurry and help comfort her.”

Chi Shuyan’s eyes were pensive at that moment. She immediately had Xia Mingcheng go and see if there was anything wrong with the other party. She believed that this was just the beginning of that Yuan woman’s retribution. That woman should have thought of the consequences back then when she used unscrupulous means to harm others. Chi Shuyan’s intuition told her that the other party definitely wouldn’t end up any worse off than the people who had died before. After all, the thing she had provoked was abnormally sinister. Before hanging up, Chi Shuyan reminded Xia Mingcheng, “Stay away from this woman after tonight!”

“Yes, Master Chi!”
