Chapter 50: Revised - 32 [Deceiving Fate!]
Chapter 32: Deceiving Fate!
Lu Sisi looked flustered as she entered the room, standing awkwardly and glancing back at Chen Yan: "Is this your place?"
"No, I rented this place specifically for you. I got the keys less than twenty minutes ago."
For me?
Lu Sisi was a bit confused.
Chen Yan waved his hand and pointed to the bed: "Sit down."
"Huh?"
Lu Sisi swallowed hard.
She felt a bit hesitant to sit down.
A man and a woman alone in a room... and he wants me to sit on the bed?
Seeing Lu Sisi’s expression, Chen Yan understood. He took a step back and sat on the room’s only chair.
"Don’t overthink it. We have serious business."
Chen Yan pondered for a moment: "I found a way to solve your bad luck, but it requires some time to cast spells. This spell is quite complex and needs to be performed daily for several days.
So, I rented this place."
Lu Sisi nodded, still confused: "Casting spells?"
Chen Yan nodded: "Yes, casting spells."
Mr. Chen the Benefactor wasn’t lying; he rented this place solely for this reason.
As for why he didn’t bring Lu Sisi to his own home...
Isn’t it obvious? Would you lead a walking ’Death Comes’ to your own home?
Going to a hotel wasn’t appropriate either.
Taking a girl to a hotel and staying for several days?
If someone saw that, it wouldn’t look good! Lu Sisi is, after all, a girl.
·
"Starting today, come here daily. I will cast spells on you. It might take one or two days, maybe three to five days. In the worst case, it won’t take more than seven days, depending on how effective the spell is."
"Hmm..." Lu Sisi quietly looked at Chen Yan, still hesitant.
Chen Yan squinted and smiled: "Did you use the talisman I gave you? Did it work?"
It worked wonders!
The girl’s eyes sparkled.
She hadn’t had any bad luck for a whole day and night!
She even had all the exam questions she had studied for today!
And...
Every time she burned the talisman, it immediately ignited and burned away, which felt very miraculous.
At this moment, Lu Sisi was almost completely convinced by Chen Yan.
"The spell needs to be performed for two hours each day.
After several days, your luck should improve."
Chen Yan spoke seriously, then pointed to the bed: "Now, sit down!"
"... Okay." Lu Sisi obediently sat down, still feeling a bit tense, her legs together and hands properly placed on her knees.
"Now, lie down."
"Hmm... What?" Lu Sisi jumped up.
Chen Yan sighed and tried to soften his tone: "I’m not a bad guy, and I won’t hurt you.
I’m a law-abiding citizen. Plus, someone saw you arrive here with me.
If anything happened to you, you could report it, and there would be witnesses."
Chen Yan pointed to the bed: "Lie down!"
As Lu Sisi lay down, she was as stiff as iron, her body trembling.
Chen Yan glanced at her: "Close your eyes and relax. Don’t think about anything."
"But, how do I not think about anything?"
"Just empty your mind."
Lu Sisi pouted: "I..., I can’t do that..."
Chen Yan felt helpless: "Then count sheep in your mind."
"Okay."
"That’s it. Relax your body...
Don’t speak unless I tell you to.
Don’t open your eyes unless I say so.
Don’t get up unless I call you, and don’t move unnecessarily!
No matter what you hear or feel, don’t open your eyes, speak, or move!"
Don’t open your eyes, speak, or move...
Lu Sisi pressed her lips tightly.
"Rest assured, I won’t touch you at all."
This reassured Lu Sisi a bit.
Chen Yan took out a bag, pulling out brush and ink, talisman paper, and cinnabar...
He set up everything on the table and began drawing talismans...
His brush moved like a dragon, swiftly painting seven or eight talismans in one go.
"Let’s begin!"
Chen Yan’s eyes widened, flashing with brightness!
·
A few minutes later...
He failed.
·
"I told you not to open your eyes or speak, didn’t I?"
Chen Yan looked helplessly at Lu Sisi.
The arrangement he had just set up was disrupted because Lu Sisi opened her eyes, burning the talisman.
The girl pouted: "I couldn’t help it..."
Hearing Chen Yan moving around the bed, then a sudden buzzing sound in her ears, Lu Sisi instinctively blinked and let out a small sound.
Chen Yan thought for a moment and sighed: "Alright, I don’t blame you. But we can’t do it this way."
He paced back and forth, then looked at Lu Sisi:
"Do you trust me?"
"... Yes." The girl nodded reluctantly.
·
A few minutes later...
Lu Sisi lay obediently on the bed.
Her eyes were covered with gauze, taped over.
Her mouth was stuffed with gauze and taped shut.
This way, she couldn’t open her eyes or call out.
Looking at his handiwork, Chen Yan fell into deep thought.
If the police broke in now, no explanation would suffice.
Clearing his mind, Chen Yan reminded Lu Sisi again and resumed the ritual!
·
Standing by the bed, he held a talisman between his fingers, which ignited and turned into wisps of smoke as he chanted incantations.
The smoke quickly entered Lu Sisi’s nostrils.
"Seal hearing!"
"Seal vision!"
"Seal taste!"
"Seal speech!"
"Seal touch!"
Chen Yan chanted quickly, burning talismans into smoke, which faded.
After five talismans, sweat appeared on Chen Yan’s forehead.
Just those five talismans consumed half of his Primordial Qi!
Recently, his Qi Cultivation had increased. Otherwise, he couldn’t have helped Lu Sisi.
·
Creatures have five senses.
The mouth can speak, the nose can smell, the ears can hear, the eyes can see, and the tongue can taste.
These are the five senses.
A so-called Life Chart, no matter if it’s Emperor’s Fate or beggar’s fate...
First must be a life, a living creature!
All life charts depend on this.
Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, Spiritual Qi, good luck, bad luck...
They all pursue living creatures!
An inanimate object has no life chart.
Depriving the five senses...
All Qi and Spiritual Power gradually stop pursuing this existence...
Without five senses, it’s incomplete in the eyes of the Heavenly Dao.
But... it’s not enough.
There’s one last step!
·
Chen Yan took a deep breath, picked up the last talisman.
This talisman consumed the most Qi, with complex Ghost Talisman-like runes.
As it slowly burned, Chen Yan’s hand trembled, sweat dripping, face pale.
"Seal spirit!"
·
Spiritual Sense, the unique human sense.
Humans think, feel, and imagine...
The so-called sixth sense!
·
The talisman burned, the smoke entering Lu Sisi’s body...
She relaxed, her face still rosy, but through Chen Yan’s Celestial Eye Qi Observation Skill, it was different!
With six senses sealed... Lu Sisi seemed lifeless.
Sealed six senses made her invisible to the Heavenly Dao.
Without six senses, she was like a stone.
Qi wouldn’t attach to the lifeless.
·
This was Chen Yan’s solution for Lu Sisi.
Seal the six senses!
Fake death to deceive fate!
Life ends all accounts.
Whether Emperor or beggar, in death, you’re just a corpse.
Rotting as needed.
All Qi, good or bad, leaves.
·
The last talisman burned, Chen Yan collapsed into the chair.
Through his Celestial Eye, Lu Sisi’s black aura dissipated.
The black aura above her head lost its center and attraction.
Without a life, no Seven Extremes Life Chart.
No Seven Extremes, bad luck faded like rootless water.
But in the room, Lu Sisi faked death... while Chen Yan lived!
The rootless bad luck aura drifted towards Chen Yan.
With his last bit of strength, Chen Yan took out another talisman.
Pricking his finger, he smeared blood on it and slapped it on his forehead!
Pa!
A golden light spread from Chen Yan.
The black aura, like repulsed, avoided Chen Yan.
