Chapter 206
Chapter 206
Third Uncle was in a foul mood. John had threatened him during the day and forced him to retreat.
The more he thought about it afterward, the angrier he became.
Then he thought of Liu Ye. For one thing, the kid had caused his death. That was right: when a person died and became a Fiend, he lost part of his memory-the part concerning how he had died.
Third Uncle had no memory of being murdered by his own sons. His last recollection was Liu Ye knocking him unconscious with a brick, so he naturally blamed Liu Ye for his death.
For another thing, Liu Ye seemed extremely important to John.
Third Uncle couldn’t control John, but killing Liu Ye would undoubtedly leave a deep wound in the boy’s heart.
That was why he had come. He hadn’t expected the kid to possess some genuine ability and keep a lesser Fiend beside him.
No wonder Liu Ye had made such a great name for himself outside.
But that lesser Fiend would have threatened Third Uncle only while he was human. Now Third Uncle was dead and had become a Fiend. Freed from the restraints of his body, he finally understood how powerful he was. Naturally, he did not fear a tiny Liu Ye.
Yin energy surged from Third Uncle. Liu Ye frowned in his sleep, then rolled over and exposed the Second Master on his back.
The Second Master opened his phoenix eyes, and golden light flashed within them. The terrified Driver hurriedly said, “Second Master, there’s no need to use a butcher’s knife on a chicken. Let this humble one handle such insignificant trash. There is no need to trouble you.”
The Second Master slowly closed his eyes.
Third Uncle, meanwhile, was enraged by the Driver’s disregard. The surrounding room turned charred black, and flames suddenly erupted.
“You will regret provoking me…”
Before he could finish, he suddenly felt something cold on his face.
“Huh?”
He looked up. Dense storm clouds had gathered overhead without his noticing, and countless raindrops began pattering down.
The ghostly flames he had summoned were extinguished completely.
Third Uncle panicked. He whirled toward the Driver and saw him shrouded in a vast cloud of black mist. Within the fog, a red light appeared before Third Uncle’s eyes.
“No… impossible! At your rank… Why would someone at your rank…”
Whoosh!
Everything vanished like smoke. The Driver stood proudly in place.
He had not even enjoyed his triumph for three seconds when Liu Ye abruptly sat up, his eyes neither fully open nor fully closed.
The Driver’s heart sank. The little bastard had been stimulated and was about to start sleepwalking again.
He immediately abandoned his pose, flew over, pulled out a violin, and played Canon.
As the beautiful music filled the room, a peaceful smile appeared on Liu Ye’s face. He fell back onto the bed and slept sweetly.
“Whew!”
The Driver shook the sweat from his body. Looking after this kid was more exhausting than fighting ten battles.
Early the next morning, Liu Ye rose feeling completely refreshed.
Today was the Zhao family’s grave-relocation ceremony, and everyone outside was already busy preparing. Liu Ye could tell the Zhao family attached enormous importance to the affair.
Considering his relationship with John, he resolved to help properly. After all, they were genuine relatives now.
Before long, Second Uncle summoned everyone to depart.
Unlike the energetic Liu Ye, Second Uncle was trembling with fear. The rest of the Zhao family had slept badly as well.
The previous night, they had discovered that Third Uncle was dead!
He was dead in the truest sense. Even his soul had vanished.
They had no idea what happened and instinctively assumed those things were responsible. They had spent the entire night on edge, not daring to close their eyes.
They feared that if they closed their eyes, they would never open them again.
Second Uncle forced himself to stay alert and ordered the Driver to take them to the destination.
At least he could nap briefly on the road. The Zhao family’s ancestral grave lay on a mountain outside Huicheng, three hours from the ancestral residence.
He had just closed his eyes when the Driver’s frightened voice rang out.
“S-Second Master!”
“What is it?”
Second Uncle opened his eyes angrily and saw the Driver pointing ahead.
Their vehicle led the convoy. Second Uncle followed his finger and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
A yellow weasel standing upright on two legs blocked the road.
An uncannily human smile covered its face as it gazed at Second Uncle with a look that was almost-but not quite-a grin.
Second Uncle’s mind blurred. In the next instant, he somehow found himself standing outside the car.
“Do I look human to you?”
Human words emerged from the yellow weasel’s mouth. Second Uncle’s entire body stiffened.
The creature was asking him to affirm its cultivation!
He had heard the legends. When a yellow weasel asked whether it resembled a human, one had two possible answers.
If one said no, the weasel would lose a thousand years of cultivation in a single day and take crazed revenge.
But if one said yes, the two would become bound by karma. Whatever the weasel did afterward, the person would bear the consequences.
It was an impossible choice. Second Uncle reached a decision instantly.
“You look human!”
Future disaster could be handled in the future. Besides, as long as his family possessed the ritual, they did not fear bearing karma.
The moment he gave his answer, the yellow weasel let out a sinister laugh like a crying infant.
Second Uncle collapsed to the ground.
After sitting there for a while, he barely managed to stand. He was about to return to the car when the yellow weasel appeared before him again.
This time, its smile was gone. Its fur stood on end as it glared furiously at Second Uncle.
Then it rammed him to the ground, the impact nearly displacing all his internal organs.
Second Uncle became angry too. Clutching his stomach, he shouted, “I already answered you! What more do you want?”
“Give me back my clan!” the yellow weasel roared.
“Your clan? What are you talking about?” Second Uncle asked in confusion.
“You captured my clan!”
“I didn’t…”
Second Uncle abruptly remembered something.
“Wait here.”
He staggered toward the rear of the convoy. Before long, he found Liu Ye and the others sitting together beside dozens of bound yellow weasels.
“Big Brother, I’m telling you, these little creatures are incredible. One of them actually talked to me! I hear talking parrots are extremely expensive. Do you think these things could be worth money?”
Everyone stared at him.
They had encountered the creatures as well. The first one had barely opened its mouth to ask whether it looked human when Liu Ye charged out of the car. A short while later, he returned with dozens of yellow weasels, large and small, all tied up.
The weasel following Second Uncle saw its clan and shrieked as it rushed forward.
Liu Ye turned. Well, look at that-another one. He slapped it, and the yellow weasel immediately joined its relatives.
Second Uncle fell silent.
