The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot
Chapter 461 - Chapter 461 Chapter 461 3 Days of Life

Chapter 461: Chapter 461: 3 Days of Life Chapter 461: Chapter 461: 3 Days of Life Looking at the bracelet Zhong Niangyao held, the faces of the three Zheng Family members weren’t looking too good.

Wu Yueshang maintained an appearance of knowing nothing, “What bracelet? I have no idea what you’re talking about.”

“Whether you know or not isn’t important,” Zhong Niangyao said with a light chuckle, her eyes carrying a hint of sharpness, “My appearance here today isn’t to ask you for the truth, I’m merely here to help Chu Tong reclaim what belongs to her.”

While speaking, her gaze fell upon Zheng Kangjian, “He may not be a greatly malicious person, but in the first half of his life, he’s been constantly committing minor evils. His life was supposed to have ended a month ago. It’s only because you somehow acquired an Evil Technique from somewhere that forcibly borrowed Chu Tong’s Life Chart for him. Otherwise, he would already be a dead man now.”

Seeing Zhong Niangyao leisurely lay out everything about the situation, the Zheng Family no longer harbored any luck.

“What exactly do you want?” Zheng De stepped forward, “Regardless, what’s done is done. Over these many years, we’ve raised that money-losing good-for-nothing, this is how she should repay us.”

“There’s no such thing as should or shouldn’t,” Zhong Niangyao said with a cold laugh, “Everyone’s Lifespan has a set limit, which is already determined at birth. It has a lot to do with the deeds done in past and present lives. Always doing evil, yet expecting to be healthy and live to a ripe old age, do you think that’s possible? Heavenly Dao wouldn’t allow that to happen either.”

“I don’t care, you can’t touch my son.”

Perhaps due to the power of a mother’s love, Wu Yueshang escaped the control of the Bodyguard and stood in front of Zheng Kangjian, pulling her son to her side, standing in front of him, “If you dare to touch a hair on his head today, I will perish together with you.”

Fuming with anger, Chu Xu would have charged at Wu Yueshang and given her a good beating if he weren’t being held back by the Bodyguard.

“Even if we don’t touch him, I have plenty of ways to retrieve Zheng Tong’s Lifespan,” Zhong Niangyao said, looking at Wu Yueshang with a mocking smile at the corner of her mouth, “So your son is a treasure, yet someone else’s daughter deserves to die, is that it?”

“I don’t care about other people’s children, but I can’t just watch my child get hurt,” Wu Yueshang’s eyes turned red, and she resembled a mother wolf protecting her cub.

“Heh, too bad, you can’t protect him today.”

Zhong Niangyao looked away from Wu Yueshang and her gaze fell upon the bracelet in her hand, a mysterious light flickering in her eyes. Then, she tossed the bracelet into the air.

Next, she began to chant a spell softly, her right index finger tracing in the air. As she moved her fingertip, a complex figure appeared, shimmering with red light.

Just as the figure was completed, she gave a gentle push and the shimmering red pattern encased the floating bracelet.

“Ah—-”

Simultaneously, Zheng Kangjian collapsed to the ground, struggling as if he was bound by something. He felt as if he was being scorched by fire, such unbearable pain that he couldn’t help but scream out loud.

“Kang Jian!”

Seeing this, Zheng De and Wu Yueshang were shocked. They hastily moved forward to try to do something. However, they found that they truly couldn’t do anything; they could only watch as their son rolled around on the ground, screaming in agony, as if he was enduring some inhuman torture.

“I’m going to kill you.”

Zheng De charged towards Zhong Niangyao. Although he didn’t understand what exactly was happening, he clearly knew it was all related to Zhong Niangyao.

Yet before he could get close, he was suddenly stopped by what seemed like a tangible black mist.

The black mist, as if sentient, wound itself around his neck and held him in place. If he tried to step forward, the mist tightened like a rope, making it impossible for him to breathe.

Seeing this, Wu Yueshang was at a loss for what to do.

In just a short ten minutes or so, for the Zheng Family trio, it felt as though a lifetime had passed.

Finally, the screams of Zheng Kangjian halted, and the pain was no longer felt. But he felt as if his entire body was drained of strength, and even his spirit seemed to have been pulled out of him, forcing him to lay limp on the ground.

The black mist around Zheng De also dissipated at the same time.

“Kang Jian.”

Zheng De and Wu Yueshang both rushed to Zheng Kang Jian, they helped him up, examining him with concern to see if there were any injuries.

After a thorough check, their hearts sank with relief. They didn’t find any injuries on Zheng Kangjian.

As for their remaining fears, they simply couldn’t believe that Zhong Niangyao really hadn’t done anything to Zheng Kangjian.

The gaze of the Zheng Family people immediately focused on Zhong Niangyao.

With a smile on her lips, Zhong Niangyao glanced at Zheng Kangjian, “You have three days of life left, cherish the time you still have!”

“What?”

Zheng Kangjian spoke disbelievingly, he struggled to stand up, but his body was completely devoid of strength, even simple standing was impossible.

“This is impossible, it can’t be,” Wu Yueshang kept shaking her head, as if trying to deny this possibility.

She didn’t want to believe that her son only had three days left to live.

Half a year ago, a harried Taoist told her that her son would face a great calamity. At that time, she thought it was just nonsense and didn’t take it to heart.

But as the days passed, life seemed to confirm the Taoist’s words; her son had a string of bad luck, both significant and small, and even his health began to falter.

She was terrified, and quickly told her husband.

Afterward, the couple exhausted every means to find the Taoist. Finally, they found him.

Latter, the Taoist proposed a solution: to borrow the Lifespan of their foster daughter for their son. Their foster daughter had the Life Chart of being blessed with longevity. If they could borrow her longevity, their son could live a long life.

Choosing between their son and their foster daughter, they hardly hesitated and immediately took action.
