168 The death of the old spirits master
" Someone come and help!" Yu Yize didn't know what happened, all he did know was that all of a sudden the spirit master in front of him who was hail and hearty just a second ago, stiffened and then all of a sudden, rotten black blood started to pour out of his eyes and mouth and then it was oozing out of every pore of the spirit master's body. Yu Yize had never seen something like this before, all the courage in his body faltered and then he was shivering and crying for help as he rushed out of the courtyard of the spirit master.
As he was running from the courtyard, he finally met with another master of the demonic sect and hurriedly rushed to her. " The third master, I mean the third pillar of the sect started to bleed from his eyes and nose, please come and see what's going on second pillar!"
The demonic sect was divided into ten courtyards, each courtyard had a spirit master who was stationed in a particular courtyard according to the strength of their powers. The master that Yu Yize hired was the third pillar and with his strength, he should have been able to deal with such matters on his own but it was his unfortunate luck that he met with Song Yan, this hard hurdle that he wasn't able to cross, no matter how hard he tried and lost his life.
The second pillar of the sect frowned as she turned to look at the courtyard of the third pillar and with a cold and emotionless voice said, "Move."
Yu Yize did as Lu Xiuying told him to do, he didn't have any fateful encounter with this beautiful demonic sect cultivator and the only thing that he knew was that she was very difficult to hire and her level was on a whole different level when compared to the third master who was greedy for quick powers and money. But now that he could sense that something went wrong with the ritual of transferring the curse to Au Mei, Yu Yize couldn't help but be regretful, if he knew that the third master of the demonic sect would be this useless then he would have tried to hire Lu Xiuying, no matter what price she asked!
Lu Xiuying walked to the third pillar's courtyard followed by Yu Yize, as soon as they stepped inside, their noses scrunched up as the smell of decaying corpses came from inside the room where the third pillar was —- Lu Xiuying pushed open the door that closed on its own after Yu Yize ran out in a flurry and felt her eyebrows jump behind her, Yu Yize stifled a gasp as the food from last night started to flow upwards.
On the spot where the spirit master was sitting, now sat a decaying corpse with its flesh crumbling and blood-curdling, the eyeballs in his sockets were already webbed and whatever it was, the corpse didn't look like it belonged to a healthy human who was alive a few minutes ago.
" What is that …how…how did it happen." Yu Yize retreated as he shook his head looking at the decaying corpse and Lu Xiuying who walked inside to study the cause of the third pillar's death. She carefully examined the corpse and then picked up the straw doll that had a burnt lock of strand sticking to it. Her eyes narrowed as she threw the straw doll in the flames that were burning behind her and turned to look at Yu Yize who was gasping for air, "The curse rebounded that's why the third pillar lost his life, there is no need for you to react like this."
Lu Xiuying wasn't at all fazed by the sight in front of her, ever since she was a young child, she was adopted by the sect master to do his bidding and while learning dark arts from the sect master, she has seen all kinds of things and something like this couldn't be counted as terrifying in her eyes.
And nor did she sympathised with the old master, after all, he took a task that was too above his station because he was greedy to shake her position and kick her out of the second pillar courtyard… it was his greed that led to his tragic death, what was there to be upset about it? He died because he was too weak and no one can sympathise with those who are weak. Especially not her.
" W…What the curse? It...It broke?" Yu Yize felt his heart jump to his throat as he furtively glared at the decaying corpse—— ' This useless old man, he is really no good! All I asked was to transfer that curse and let it be as away as possible from my son and yet he couldn't do it! After wasting millions on this fool, this is what I get?'
Yu Yize was as worried as he was incensed, he wanted to believe that nothing will happen to his son now that the old master has taken the full brunt of the curse but he wasn't sure. He raised his head to look at Lu Xiuying who was as tranquil as the moon on a cold night like she wasn't staring at a corpse but something that was quite fascinating to her, and felt a shiver dance up his spine —— a woman like her who wasn't even shaken up by seeing something like this could never be as much of a simpleton as he thought her as. So, what? She was still a woman, right? Most probably she will still agree to his deal if he makes it sound alluring.
" Sec...Second pillar? Can you help me take care of this matter," trying to ignore the horrible scent of the corpse, Yu Yize took a brave step forward and put forth his deal. " I mean if you take care of this matter, I will pay you twice as much as I was paying the third pillar including a piece of an old antique that the old sect master has been eyeing for so long, I mean it's just sitting in my basement." First of all, he needed to take care of this matter properly! Everything else can be taken care of later on.
