Chapter 2080: Chapter 2078: Intertwined Time and Space, Transformed Lives (26)
The benefit of mastering the fourth level of the talisman is that she no longer needs to travel to that area; she can complete it at home. Gu Qiaoqiao did not hesitate, flicked her finger, and a golden glow of merit struck the top of Grandpa Qin’s spiritual body in the distant night sky.
Subsequently, Gu Qiaoqiao drew the Reincarnation Curse in mid-air, instantly closing the distance as if she were facing him directly, and then Grandpa Qin transformed into twinkling starlight and disappeared.
After finishing these tasks, Gu Qiaoqiao let out a small sigh of relief, then began to search the Imperial Capital with her unrivaled divine sense.
Then Gu Qiaoqiao realized that there was a limit to the range, and it couldn’t cover the entire land of Huaxia. A bitter smile appeared at the corner of her mouth; she was truly insatiable, how could it be possible to envelope the entire land with her spiritual power?
Even if she were to fully master the Heaven-reaching Talisman Incantation, she might not achieve this.
However, during the search, she did see some spiritual bodies, but they were unfamiliar to her. None of them were familiar, including her brother’s.
Although Gu Qiaoqiao was a bit disappointed, she somehow felt unexpectedly calm. Perhaps this was the best outcome.
Let this lifetime be just a nightmare. If she has the chance to meet her again, she will tell her all this. It’s all in the past now.
Since she has activated the Heaven-reaching Talisman Incantation and possesses such ability, Gu Qiaoqiao spread her spiritual power, subduing those evil spirits one by one, transforming them into faint energy spheres that disappeared into the night sky. As for the other spiritual bodies, Gu Qiaoqiao did not send them all to reincarnation.
She decided to follow her heart. Perhaps at some point a spiritual body would come to her, and in that case, she would unlock the spiritual body’s past lives and then send it into the cycle of reincarnation. As for the others, for now, that’s the best she could do.
Maybe leaving them, following her heart, is to save these for her to handle when she returns.
Perhaps this is what will give her the confidence to continue living?
Unable to resist, she glanced at her fingers and then withdrew her divine sense without hesitation. After she leaves, the other her will naturally return, and will these spiritual energies and abilities still be preserved then?
Now, with her being in her body, she doesn’t even know whether these abilities will exist.
If they don’t, will her little uncle help her to unlock them?
Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but shake her head; all these were unknowns. She could only wait and endure little by little.
Now that her voice has recovered enough to utter syllables, she still can’t speak complete sentences. However, after mastering the fourth level of the Heaven-reaching Talisman Incantation, her finger’s spiritual energy seemed to become denser. Thinking it over, Gu Qiaoqiao returned once again to the space where her voice could recover more quickly.
No matter how dark and long the night, the light will eventually arrive.
On September 6, 1998, a major event happened in the Imperial Capital.
Ning Wanru and Gu Cheng, who were still in the hospital, were taken away by the police.
The Old Patriarch of the Gu Family personally reported to the police, and together with the Qin Family’s Qin Yize, accused Ning Wanru, Gu Cheng, and others of their brutal crimes of murdering his Gu family’s descendants.
Everyone involved in this matter was caught, from top to bottom, without exception.
This naturally included Lin Fanpeng.
He had set his eyes on the Gu Family not just for a day or two; several decades back, he had already conspired with another person.
The victims included not only the descendants of the Gu Family but also Gu Qingfeng’s first wife, Lady Yu.
This was truly a shocking case, a thousand-year injustice. Originally, Gu Qingfeng’s health had fully recovered, but he was heartbroken beyond words, even contemplating perishing together with everyone.
No matter guilty or innocent, he didn’t want to spare a single descendant of Ning Wanru. Yet when he found out he still had a great-granddaughter in this world, he abandoned this thought.
He needed to live.
Live to atone, live to take care of his only great-granddaughter. He wanted to hand over all of the Gu Family’s assets to her, along with her prospective husband.
He never imagined that this child had never given up over the years. Look at him, foolish to the extreme, kept in the dark, pain, and regret so profound that words couldn’t describe his feelings. But doing nothing was out of the question for him as well.
Three days later, he went to see Ning Wanru and Gu Cheng. Gu Qingfeng, who initially planned to do something, abandoned this thought upon seeing these two.
To truly end their lives with a slash would be a relief, a blessing for them at this point. He wouldn’t do such a thing, not only that, he wanted the doctor to treat them thoroughly, to ensure they live well before the sentence came, including Gu Jianhua.
Ning Wanru, at this time, although she had fallen into the water, hadn’t died and didn’t have any other aftereffects, but she seemed like a moldy steamed bun, clearly alive, yet exuding decay and death.
Her well-maintained face was covered in spots, and some areas even began to rot; her voice was no longer elegant and gentle, but extremely rough, and her breathing was labored, yet she was alive.
The other individuals were the same, giving off the feeling that they were breathing corpses slowly decaying.
The painful wails of Ning Wanru, Gu Cheng, and the others continuously echoed in Gu Qingfeng’s ears, and the old patriarch’s lips curled into a cold smile.
All of this fell under Gu Qiaoqiao’s divine sense, including the reactions of Qin Xuan’s family, which she also monitored.
Qin Xuan and Shen Manru never imagined that their son actually found evidence and truly avenged the Gu Family and their Qin Family.
Qin Xuan also never thought that his good second brother was involved. He couldn’t understand what kind of mindset his second brother harbored in participating.
The Qin Family’s business had always been under his control. Initially, the old master wanted his Ah Ze to take over the business, but unfortunately, Ah Ze chose another path. Therefore, the Qin Family had been in the hands of his second brother for many years, and he never harbored any resentment, instead feeling very relieved.
Relieved that the Qin Family had someone to carry on, because he had no interest in it. But who would have thought that even though the Qin family’s main branch continuously backed down, including his wife Shen Manru, none of them showed any interest in the business.
Yet the outcome was that they became thorns in their eyes.
If not for his own brother’s push, their vicious plan couldn’t have unfolded so smoothly; his grandfather and mother wouldn’t have died so early; their health was excellent before the blow.
Thinking of this, the pain pierced his heart deeply.
So when Qin Yishan’s wife came to plead for leniency, he indifferently refused.
Considering the children?
What a joke, his good second brother didn’t even wish his family to have descendants, and he would be generous enough to spare him, seriously treating him as a naïve scholar?
