Capítulo 2151: Chapter 2149: The Curse in the Bloodline

Bai Ruozhu looked at him intently, taking a deep breath, “Why her?”

“Don’t you know she’s the princess of the Quanrong Clan? She can help me in the future.” Jiang Yichun replied coldly.

“You’re not regretting this?” Bai Ruozhu’s voice trembled slightly, yet her back remained straight.

Jiang Yichun’s heart was like being cut with a knife, finding it difficult to breathe, yet he gritted his teeth and said, “I never do anything I’ll regret.”

“Alright, hope you remember what you said today.” Bai Ruozhu turned around after speaking, not jumping over the wall, but heading straight towards the Fo Family’s Main Gate and pushed it open to leave.

The following Feng Cheng glared at the two, emanating a murderous aura, as if he would strike to kill in the next second.

Fortunately, he finally turned and pursued out, while Fo Lanying collapsed powerlessly onto a stone bench, panting heavily. Her task was terrifying, she almost died just now!

“You really screwed me over.” Fo Lanying said gloomily.

Jiang Yichun glared at her harshly, “If word gets out, your mother will be happy.”

Fo Lanying’s eyes flickered with a dark light, “What does it matter to me whether she’s happy or not? Leaving tomorrow anyway.”

Jiang Yichun’s heart ached again, yes, leaving tomorrow, wasn’t that already decided? He couldn’t hold on anymore.

“Bai Ruozhu!” Feng Cheng caught up, calling Bai Ruozhu’s name with some worry, but Bai Ruozhu seemed to hear nothing, walking ahead step by step, her pace steady with a sense of determination, but it was too steady, like forcing each step forward.

Furthermore, her back was straight and her neck somewhat stiff, like a lost soul walking forward, forcing herself not to look back.

At this moment, a scream resounded from the distant mountain, Feng Cheng’s heart tightened, “Something’s happened on the mountain!”

Bai Ruozhu finally reacted, turning her head to look towards the mountain, “Didn’t you tell me not to care?”

Feng Cheng then saw her face clearly, there was no expression on her face, yet it was covered with tears, her eyes lost as they looked into the distance, tears continuously falling.

“You…” Feng Cheng opened his mouth, yet felt he wasn’t good at comforting people, not knowing what to say.

Where in the world isn’t there a patch of green grass? When the old goes, the new comes? Or would he definitely regret it in the future?

These words might seem comforting, but if the other party is heartbroken, wouldn’t saying them feel a bit sarcastic?

Feng Cheng didn’t know what to do anymore. Another scream came from the mountain, and he couldn’t stay here for long either.

“I’ll go check it out, you go back first, if you encounter Chief Su, stop them from going up the mountain.” Feng Cheng finished speaking and his figure flashed, already appearing several meters away.

Perhaps if Bai Ruozhu had something to do, she wouldn’t keep overthinking and feeling sad.

Bai Ruozhu walked back step by step, running into the chief and others on the way, she said with a dry voice, “The Guardian Spirit asked you not to go there, find a safe place to hide.”

“How is that okay? After all, it was trouble caused by our clan, how can we not help?” Chief Su frowned and said.

“Going there is to die, and it would give the monster a chance to absorb nutrients.” Bai Ruozhu replied and continued walking forward, her eyes no longer seeing anything.

“Something’s not right with Ruozhu girl, she seems to have been crying.” The Sixth Elder said quietly.

The crowd turned their heads, only able to see her back, the Third Elder vaguely sensed something was off, hurriedly stopping everyone, saying: “She might be worried about her second brother, we should look after the clan members first and stop anyone from going up the mountain.”

Subsequently, everyone inquired about Bai Zepei’s situation, and the Third Elder answered one by one, but sighed silently, fearing that Ruozhu might have quarreled with her husband.

He heard that Ruozhu’s husband treated her very well, and their relationship was especially deep, but with Jiang Yichun’s appearance this time, things were a bit off, it seemed deliberate distancing from Ruozhu.

The Third Elder was somewhat angry, there are too many men who change hearts in this world, if that kid truly changed his, he must stand up for Ruozhu!

Bai Ruozhu returned home, fortunately, parents and children were all asleep, she caressed Dengdeng’s small face, unable to stop herself from crying.

She covered her mouth, fearing her cries would wake the children, yet the sobs couldn’t be held back.

“You worked hard last night.”

“Tomorrow leave with me.”

“Don’t you know she’s the princess of the Quanrong Clan? She can help me in the future.”

These words struck her heart like heavy hammers, making it hurt so much she couldn’t breathe.

Jiang Yichun, hiding outside the window, was also full of tears. He knew he had hurt her heart, but better a short pain than a long one, letting her hate him and then forget him, only then could she start a happy life anew.

During the battle, suddenly a spy shot a Dark Arrow at him, and he was almost captured alive by the enemy.

At that time, Jian Zhen took a hit for him, yet even so, he suffered severe injuries. After being rescued by Gao Deng, he felt a terrible pain in his heart, as if pierced by ten thousand arrows, yet the injury wasn’t in his chest, why did it hurt so?

Afterward, he started having nightmares, his mind somewhat disoriented, it was Gao Deng who noticed but found no reason.

Soon, Gao Deng remembered the incident with the thousand-person Blood Curse, worried the initial curse wasn’t completely lifted, he immediately sought Jing Shuang. Results had Jing Shuang’s face turned pale at first look, asking Gao Deng, “Who exactly is his biological mother?”

Gao Deng was shocked, “What do you mean by that?”

Jing Shuang sighed, “There’s a terrible curse in his bloodline existing from birth, generally not showing any difference, but wouldn’t let one live past thirty. Yet once triggered, the cursed would face immense pain.”

She looked at Jiang Yichun, “You feel gut-wrenching pain every day, don’t you? Why not tell your father?”

Jiang Yichun nodded, woodenly, his mind echoing only with the words: not living past thirty…

“How could there be a Vein Curse!” Gao Deng shouted in frustration.

“It’s heard some people’s bloodlines are too defying, thus some in the clan are born with a Vein Curse. Just didn’t finish saying, his curse might have been triggered by the thousand-person Blood Curse, possibly last at most three years…”

Jing Shuang hadn’t finished before Gao Deng shouted, “How to lift the curse? Tell me how!”

“I’m sorry, I’m powerless.” Jing Shuang’s eyes also reddened.

“What about your family?” Gao Deng grabbed her arm, in such urgency that blood marks appeared on her wrist.

“This curse I saw in a Forbidden Book of my family, which says it’s unbreakable, also warning the clan not to take people from that family as spouses.”

Jing Shuang spoke, tears streaming down her face, “Great power often comes with limitations, like the Zhong Family’s bloodline can give birth to only one child in a lifetime, so it is for those people too, the Bloodline Curse is their limitation.”
