Chapter 370: Chapter 370

"What’s wrong?" Cheng Tianxue asked with a furrowed brow.

"Xue’er, first tell me, what exactly happened while I was away?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.

"Do you really want to know?" Cheng Tianxue hesitated.

"Of course!" Zhang Xiaohao said, scraping her jade nose lightly.

"During the time you were away, there were three groups of people who wanted to harm me! However, the little one ate all of them. Not even bones were left. The first time, I called you on the phone, you should know about it! As for the remaining two groups, they were all dressed in black, their faces covered, showing only their eyes," Cheng Tianxue explained.

"Anything else strange happen?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.

"Yeah," Cheng Tianxue nodded, then continued.

"Recently, I don’t know why, but I’ve been feeling like my spirit isn’t sufficient, and I’ve really wanted to sleep! But every time I hold the Jade Pendant our master gave, that tiredness just disappears," Cheng Tianxue said.

"Anything else?" Zhang Xiaohao pressed.

"A week ago, I was so tired from working overtime at the company that the clothes I changed out of disappeared when I wanted to find them the next day," Cheng Tianxue said.

"Just as I thought!" Zhang Xiaohao’s expression turned serious.

"What’s wrong?" Cheng Tianxue asked.

"It’s nothing! You have been cursed with a very evil spell, luckily you had the master’s Jade Pendant, otherwise, you wouldn’t be seeing me right now," Zhang Xiaohao explained.

"Ah! Who wants to harm me?" Cheng Tianxue asked anxiously.

"Don’t be afraid, Xue’er! I’m here, and it’s fine! No matter who it is, daring to harm you , rest assured, I will definitely avenge you," Zhang Xiaohao said earnestly.

"Yeah," Cheng Tianxue nodded firmly.

"Let’s go have dinner first! After that, I’ll break the evil spell on you," Zhang Xiaohao suggested.

"Yeah," Cheng Tianxue agreed.

Zhang Xiaohao then brought another set of underwear.

The two of them went downstairs one after the other.

"Brother-in-law, that was quick, wasn’t it?" Cheng Qingsu said teasingly, blinking.

"Shut your mouth! If you talk nonsense again, watch out, I’ll deal with you!" Cheng Tianxue scolded coldly.

"Hehe! Sister, the blush on your face hasn’t faded yet!" Cheng Qingsu said with a mischievous grin.

"Are you asking for a beating again? I’ll beat you to death tonight!" Cheng Tianxue threatened coldly.

Picking up a nearby feather duster, she chased after Cheng Qingsu.

"Giggle! Sister, you can’t catch me," Cheng Qingsu declared triumphantly.

"Son-in-law, Miss, come have dinner!" Sister Zhou called out with a laugh.

"Hmph! You’re lucky today, I’ll spare you because of Sister Zhou," Cheng Tianxue stated.

She pulled out a chair and sat down.

Zhang Xiaohao smiled, thoroughly enjoying this warmth of home, and started to eat.

"Yating, you sleep with your Sister Qingsu tonight," Zhang Xiaohao ordered.

"Yeah," Zhou Yating quietly agreed, returning to her well-behaved appearance in front of others.

One Cheng Qingsu, one Zhou Yating, Zhang Xiaohao felt overwhelmed.

"Xue’er, let’s go upstairs," Zhang Xiaohao said.

"Hmph!" Cheng Tianxue huffed lightly and led the way upstairs.

"Go for it, brother-in-law! My sister is tough on the outside but soft on the inside. Don’t be fooled by her cold, overbearing CEO facade; deep down, she’s extremely lonely and empty. Just sweet talk her well, and you can have whatever position you want!" Cheng Qingsu whispered with a wink.

"Shut your mouth! If you dare talk nonsense again, I’ll skin you alive!" Cheng Tianxue roared.

Having said that, she went upstairs with a stern face.

Zhang Xiaohao touched his nose with a wry smile and followed upstairs.

He moved a cabinet in the room, bit his index finger, and let blood flow from his fingertip.

Meanwhile, he executed the Three Pure Daoist Skill, drawing mysterious tadpole-like symbols on the cabinet.

A quarter of an hour later.

The cabinet was covered with various mysterious tadpole-like symbols.

Zhang Xiaohao waved his hand and took out a stack of yellow paper from the Shennong Ring.

This was not ordinary yellow paper; it had been specially crafted by him.

Moving through incantations, he struck several poses with his hands and stuck three pieces of the yellow paper on a cabinet.

As soon as the three pieces of yellow paper were in place, a chilling wind spontaneously whipped up in the room.

"Ah! What are you doing?" Cheng Tianxue asked, puzzled.

"Exposing the mastermind behind the scenes!" Zhang Xiaohao said.

"Oh," Cheng Tianxue responded calmly.

"Xue’er, come here!" Zhang Xiaohao commanded.

Cheng Tianxue rose from the bed and, following Zhang Xiaohao’s instructions, crossed her legs and sat on the ground, closing her eyes.

"Soul Suppressing Technique!"

Zhang Xiaohao roared as he grabbed a piece of yellow paper and pressed it onto Cheng Tianxue’s head with a slap.

A surge of shadowy aura spiraled up, and a thick, malevolent energy shot out rapidly from the top of her head.

"Hmph! Suppress!" Zhang Xiaohao barked coldly.

A drop of blood touched the yellow paper.

Brilliant golden light burst forth from the yellow paper, instantly suppressing all the malevolent energy.

Cheng Tianxue also fell into a deep sleep.

"A little ghost from the Southern Ocean dares to set its sights on my woman! This time, I’ll refine your soul and spirit, making your existence worse than death!" Zhang Xiaohao sneered coldly.

He flipped his hand, now holding a small golden bell.

Then, he picked up a piece of yellow paper, squeezed nine drops of blood onto it, and folded it into a Yellow Paper Miniature.

With all preparations complete, Zhang Xiaohao’s eyes gleamed with a murderous intent.

"Arise!" He held the golden bell and gave it a slight shake.

Suddenly, a howling wind raged through the room, extinguishing all the lights in that instant.

Various ghastly and terrifying screams echoed in his ears.

"Break them for me!" Zhang Xiaohao hummed coldly.

The Three Pure Daoist Skill was employed as he gripped the golden bell and shook it fiercely.

Rings of golden light erupted from the golden bell.

All the dreadful and miserable screams immediately vanished. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮·𝙣𝙚𝙩

"Three Pure Daoist Skill, River of Destiny! Heavens and Earth’s Dual Bridges, open for me!" Zhang Xiaohao roared.

His hand moved like lightning to strike Cheng Tianxue’s forehead.

Cheng Tianxue’s body shook violently, and a seemingly incredible scene unfolded.

Following the Dual Bridges between Heaven and Earth, and sensing in the void, Zhang Xiaohao’s consciousness slowly descended into a dark villa.

There was a black desk with a doll made of clothing placed on it.

The doll was splattered with black dog blood and pierced all over with dark silver needles.

Around it, various objects used for casting malevolent spells were arranged.

As Zhang Xiaohao’s consciousness reached the doll, what originally was a featureless head suddenly flashed two small red points.

With a swoosh, it opened two cold, murderous eyes.

Looking down at the silver needles embedded in its body, the doll showed a cold smile.
