Chapter 81: Chapter 81: The Leader Is Fierce When Beating People

Yun Kuang still couldn’t bring himself to push his sister out, and forced a laugh.

"So Qi knows it all, huh? But the Evil Summoning Spell was drawn by me. Although I’m not as skilled as you, I can still learn to draw an Evil Summoning Spell."

"No, you can’t!" Yun Qi didn’t expect that despite reaching this point, his cousin brother was still lying.

His little face fell serious and drooped, the baby fat on his cheeks weighed down heavily.

"With brother’s skills, there’s no way he could’ve drawn the Evil Summoning Spell. It’s not okay to lie and overestimate yourself."

Yun Kuang’s mouth twitched, his toes almost dug a three-room-one-hall out of the ground.

It’s not scary to lie; it’s scary to be exposed, and even scarier to be hit over the head with it by the Little Dumpling.

Indeed, he really didn’t have those skills.

"Actually, what Sister Ying meant was..."

Yun Kuang still wanted to defend his blood sister.

"Actually, I don’t really mind. After all, that talisman can’t hurt me. But brother, the Evil Summoning Spell is extremely dangerous. Without great skill, even carrying it around affects personal Qi Fortune and invites disasters. Do you think Sister Ying knows that?"

Yun Kuang suddenly froze.

If today’s experiences were all due to the Evil Summoning Spell, then Yun Ying knew from the beginning that this talisman would bring bad luck upon herself.

She just didn’t care, letting herself gamble with her life.

To punish Yun Qi, to vent her anger, of course, she had to be willing to risk a child.

He was the child to be sacrificed.

With this realization, Yun Kuang felt immense misery.

From the start, he was against Yun Qi for Yun Ying, yet this was the return he got!

"Qi, I..."

He suddenly sat down cross-legged, covering his face with both hands.

Xu Leisong, half-understanding, asked, "What’s wrong with him?"

Yun Qi sighed like a little adult, shaking his head.

This kind of thing would make anyone heartbroken.

However, how could Sister Ying have such a cruel heart?

Yun Kuang was her real brother, a brother who always thought of her.

"Stop looking at him. You’ve got your own troubles."

Little Dumpling warned seriously, pursing his lips, with a stern and earnest look.

Xu Leisong suddenly snapped back, realizing, yeah, he had been sticking his nose into other people’s business while his own troubles were piling up.

"Then why did my cousin want to harm me?" Xu Leisong asked again.

"That question is better asked to him directly. My master always says only the one who tied the knot can untie it."

Yun Qi turned around, the uneven ground made his small body stagger, almost tripping.

Behind him, Yun Kuang, who was emo, and Xu Leisong, half emo and half perplexed, practically lunged forward to catch him.

Unexpectedly, Yun Qi steadied himself after a stumble.

He said to the whining Little Green Snake, "Hurry up, take us all out, Qi’s little feet are hurting."

With a swish, Little Green Snake swung its tail over, placing it in front of Yun Qi, crying pitifully, "Look, a whole scale fell off here. Can I apply for worker’s comp?"

Yun Qi blinked his big eyes, suddenly reached out his hand, "Qi will blow on it, blowing will make it not hurt."

Little Green Snake: ...

Having a baby boss sure is troublesome.

What she needed was not cuteness; what she needed was real compensation and comfort, like a Spiritual Power Growth Talisman.

But she dared not speak up; the boss could be fierce when angry.

Little Green Snake transformed back into the form of the Big Green Dragon, lifting both Yun Kuang and Xu Leisong, flying out of the ground pit.

Upon reaching the ground, the Big Green Dragon turned back into Little Green Snake, burrowing into the Jade Pendant hanging on Yun Qi’s neck.

Yun Kuang couldn’t help but be curious, "Is she a snake or a dragon?"

A roar came from the pendant, "I’ll become a dragon soon."

Yun Qi relentless revealed, "She’s neither a snake nor a dragon, her true form is an Object Demon."

Object Demon, what the hell is that?

Xu Leisong looked at Yun Kuang—did you understand?

Yun Kuang shook his head, his eyes answering him—do I look like I understood?

Xu Leisong couldn’t help but complain, "How come you understand nothing!"

Yun Kuang took another psychological blow of ten thousand points.

Xu Leisong walked to the side, pointing at the spot below, "It was right here, where my cousin pushed me down."

Earlier, it was a deep pit covered in golden light, but now the ground was indeed flat and solid.

Yun Qi pointed out, "That was a Transmission Array, using your blood to send you underground, but I reckon they didn’t know their actions would awaken the Earthborn Fetus underground."

"Then what did they intend to do?"

"To kill you, bury you underground, and then when your parents find you, they would be devastated."

"Why do that?"

Yun Qi shrugged, "That place must hold special meaning for your cousin."

Xu Leisong suddenly thought, "Oh, my uncle...he died there over a decade ago, and I saw his figure in the pit."

"An illusion, that’s all. This kind of illusion doesn’t come from you, but from your cousin. It’s his obsession. He always thought his father said he was killed by your family, this obsession turned into an illusion, forming a Heart Demon, which drove him to kill you to cause your parents pain."

Xu Leisong still had many questions, but his phone suddenly rang.

He just realized how long it had been since he last checked it.

When he was underground, he even thought of using the flashlight app, but the phone wouldn’t turn on.

He thought it had run out of battery and shut off.

Answering the call, Mo Wanting’s voice rang out, laced with sobs:

"Where have you been...why are you coming back only now, do you want to worry your mom to death..."

Though it was a scolding, Xu Leisong found it incredibly heartwarming, responding with a choke:

"Mom, I’m coming home now."

The day was just breaking.

In the Xu family’s living room, Yun Qi hugged a cup of hot milk, watching Xu Leisong and Mo Wanting embrace.

Though they had seen each other that day, they cried like a heartfelt reunion after a long absence, exceptionally touching.

Yun Qi shook his head, adult emotions were indeed complex.

Mo Wanting, having cried her fill, finally let go of her son, looking him over, "You’ve lost weight!"

Even Xu Leisong felt it was exaggerated, "Mom, it’s just half a day!"

"But you look a lot more haggard, and Master Xiao Qi sent you home, nothing good could come of that!"

Yun Qi: ...

The words didn’t sound quite good.

Mo Wanting swiftly squeezed out an ingratiating smile, explaining, "Master Xiao Qi, I didn’t mean that. Has my son given you any trouble?"

"Not really. Anyway, I got a treasure." Yun Qi patted his stomach with satisfaction.

The Earthborn Fetus is a rare commodity, either dying prematurely during gestation or struck dead by Heavenly Thunder.

The one she obtained would definitely draw a crowd in the Netherworld.

"That’s good then."

Mo Wanting wanted to say more, but Xu Leisong cut her off directly, asking, "Mom, was there something strange about my uncle’s death back then?"

Mo Wanting found it strange, hadn’t even answered, when her phone rang.

It was Liu Xianglei on the line, his voice was sweet:

"Aunt, I’m sorry to bother you at this time. I wanted to ask if Leisong is back?"

Mo Wanting was even more puzzled, looking at her son, "Yes, he’s back."

"He’s back???" The voice on the other end was shocked, a kind of surprise completely beyond expectation.

"Yes, isn’t it normal for him to be back by this time?"

"But, he wasn’t supposed to..." Liu Xianglei couldn’t even finish.

Xu Leisong snatched his mother’s phone, yelling into it:

"If there’s a problem, settle it face-to-face, stop those underhanded tricks."

Liu Xianglei’s phone fell with a crash, the screen instantly shattered, tiny pieces scattering all over the ground, just like his chaotic heart at that moment.

It was truly Xu Leisong’s voice, alive, with human presence, yet...

It shouldn’t be; he should have perished underground.
