Chapter 2434: Live Forever?
“How audacious! My mother is also your mother-in-law, yet you actually hurt her.”
Ning Shu played with the buddhist beads on her wrist and calmly said, “Your mother was going to bury me alive. Why can’t I resist?”
“If moles and ants value their lives, why can’t I?”
Could it be that she was supposed to thank them for their kindness?
Li Sanlang sneered, “You’re just something that my mother bought. If it wasn’t for me, you would be dead by now, you ungrateful thing.”
With that attitude, they were definitely mother and son.
Was her life this lowly?
No matter how lowly her life was deemed, she still wanted to live. Even if she was a salted fish, she would be the saltiest one there is.
Ning Shu sneered. Her fingers flew and she began chanting a spell. “You want me to be obedient? I will take you down even if I have to die in the process.”
Li Sanlang’s eyes became increasingly bloodshot. “I wanted to give you a chance to become my wife. I was going to let you stay with me and live forever, but you’re actually this unappreciative.”
Ning Shu hurriedly chanted the spell. The golden talisman struck Li Sanlang and he was obviously weakened a little.
“Who said I wanted to live forever with you? Who said I wanted to be your wife? I don’t need your kindness, let alone your favor.”
What the heck was his favor?
He wanted to dictate the way she lived and messed with her life until it was in smithereens, yet he considered bestowing favor.
“You impudent wretch!” Li Sanlang cursed.
If resistance was impudence, Ning Shu would be even more impudent.
She wanted to commit mariticide!!!
Ning Shu chanted a taoist scripture as she counted on the buddhist beads. The air soon resembled water drops dripping into a pond with layers and layers of ripples moving outwards.
Li Sanlang’s figure was like a reflection in the water, his figure started becoming distorted.
Li Sanlang was somewhat uncomfortable and he disappeared.
“Liu Xiaoya, I’ll kill you,” The frighteningly sinister voice drifted into the room.
Ning Shu’s expression remained unchanged. No one could stop her from leaving the Li family. She’d kill anything that got in her way, human or not.
Because the lady of the house was injured, there was some disorder in the Li family.
Lady Wang was lying in bed screaming with pain. The doctor came to see her and said that Lady Wang’s leg would take a long time to heal.
After all, Ning Shu had broken her leg.
Lady Wang would need to lie down for a hundred days after suffering such a serious injury.
Lady Wang angrily gnashed her teeth. She vowed to make Liu Xiaoya suffer. Simply burying her alive would be letting her off too lightly.
Lady Wang complained to her husband that Liu Xiaoya had come to overthrow their family and that her son even said to her in a dream that his body was in pain.
Fuming, Lady Wang said that they had to make it so Liu Xiaoya could never reincarnate and that her soul should suffer forever and be subjected to endless torture.
She was only a cheap wretch they had bought with ten taels of silver yet she dared to raise a hand against her and injure her leg.
Li Sanlang’s father sent men to invite the taoist priest from White Cloud Temple to hold a sacrificial burial.
Since Lady Wang was injured, no one bothered Ning Shu anymore. She finally had some peace and quiet.
At night, Ning Shu would search every building for the ancestral hall.
She couldn’t find the ancestral hall at all.
What was going on?
Don’t tell her that the Li family didn’t have an ancestral hall, that was impossible!
Merchants, the rich and powerful, influential officials, and nobles all cared the most about their family’s prosperity and inheritance. Most of all, they cared about feng shui.
However, the Li family didn’t even have an ancestral hall?
It could only be that the ancestral hall was hidden somewhere she didn’t know.
Why was it hidden? Could it be that it held some kind of secret?
Ning Shu had no way to leave the Li family right now. She considered making a large batch of drugs and knocking everyone in the Li family unconscious so that she could search the entire place for the ancestral hall.
