NOVEL NEXT Chapter 417 Heavenly Master 124
In the expectant and excited gaze of Zhang Jie, Situ Shuangshuang held the talisman pen and effortlessly drew the array to break the spell, placing the diamond into the talisman array as Situ Shuangshuang used mana to activate the power of the array!
At the moment the array was activated, the diamond, which was originally emitting a charming light purple color, burst out with a shocking black mist, followed by a rattling sound!
Accompanied by the sound, cracks rapidly appeared on the beautiful purple diamond, and almost instantly, this stunning, enchanting light purple diamond shattered into powder!
At the instant the beautiful purple diamond shattered, in a distant villa, a middle-aged man dressed in very classical attire, with the demeanor of a master, suddenly spat out a mouthful of dark black blood, and his face turned from ruddy to the pale gray of a dead person instantly! Then he fell to the ground!
The man's sudden collapse terrified the two apprentices serving and studying beside him, and they rushed over, shouting several times, "Master, what's wrong with you?" However, the man did not respond at all!
After calling out for a while, one of the apprentices tentatively checked the middle-aged man's breath, finding no air, probed his neck, and detected no pulse; the middle-aged man was already dead!
The apprentice retracted his hand in fear, gasping sharply, while the other disciple immediately guessed the reason and hurriedly checked the middle-aged man's breath, and indeed, there was no sign of life!
The two apprentices exchanged a glance and surprisingly no one thought to call the police or an ambulance. Instead, they tacitly stood up, quickly ran into the room, and swept away all the money, jade, and magic artifacts. Having split their loot, they packed up and left just like that!!!
The body of the middle-aged man was thus abandoned in the courtyard, completely ignored! It wasn't until the neighbors reported it to the police that his death was known!
When the police came and checked the middle-aged man's communications records, they found he had no relatives at all! He was completely alone!
Situ Shuangshuang didn't know or care about the man's death. After all, with such harmful arrays, as long as they aren't discovered, once they're broken by a capable Heavenly Master, the person behind them has almost no way to survive!
Although Zhang Jie didn't know if he had removed that doom, he indeed felt a sense of relief from inside out, both physically and mentally, and his heart's perpetual feeling of oppression unknowingly dissipated!
Now, when he recalled his past thoughts of suicide, Zhang Jie found it incredible. How could he have such negative thoughts? Just because there was a possibility of dying in the future, he had to end his life preemptively. What kind of nonsense logic was that!
In fact, it's quite normal. The doom affect people in all aspects, keeping them under constant threat of potential death and psychological pressure by external forces, and internally, it also affects one's willpower, making one depressed, unmotivated, and prone to overthinking and taking extreme paths!
Now that Situ Shuangshuang broke the opponent's spell, the doom that originally didn't belong to Zhang Jie naturally disappeared immediately, so it was quite normal for Zhang Jie to recover.
After helping Zhang Jie to lift the doom, Situ Shuangshuang simply left using the wall-penetrating skill. This time, compared to when Situ Shuangshuang arrived and Zhang Jie was full of despair, by the time Situ Shuangshuang left, Zhang Jie was already energetic and naturally was immensely curious about Situ Shuangshuang's wall-penetrating skill.
As soon as Situ Shuangshuang left, Zhang Jie leaned against his wall for quite a while, even attempted to mimic Situ Shuangshuang's method by touching the wall several times. The result was predictable; without mana, Zhang Jie couldn't possibly pass through walls and just ended up bruising himself!
After dealing with Zhang Jie's doom, Situ Shuangshuang put the matter behind her. As for the person who harmed Zhang Jie, the evil Heavenly Master who acted has died, and the one who transferred his own doom to Zhang Jie is also bound to meet a bad end.
Such actions that deceive the Heavenly Dao are naturally unsustainable. The best outcome would be eluding it while alive and settling the account in Hell after death. At that time, even having the opportunity to reincarnate as an animal would be considered a good ending.
But there are always those who are not afraid, or who don't believe in retribution after death, thinking only of enjoying life to the fullest while living. As for matters after death, who cares! Others think, at worst, they can bring their karma to the next life to repay!
After all, even if you're the same soul in the next life without the memory of this life, wouldn't you be a different person? Whether alive or dead, what does it have to do with who you are now in this life? Such thinking is tantamount to blaming your own sins on an entirely uninvolved and innocent person! Such thoughts are utterly shameful!
Situ Shuangshuang just wanted to say, "What a naive thought!" Live recklessly in this life and let the next life pay for it? Your sins from this life aren't atoned for, so there's no next life. To reincarnate even as an animal, you'd have to wait until your soul is cleansed of all sins first.
Even though Situ Shuangshuang did not follow the aftermath of Zhang Jie's case, half a month later, Zhang Jie, who had become a sunny and cheerful young man again, came looking for Situ Shuangshuang. He first offered Situ Shuangshuang a million yuan, along with complete sets of jade and diamond jewelry, two sets of each!
The jade appeared to be of ice quality, and the diamonds were large, just the jewelry itself would be worth over a million. These were tokens of gratitude for Situ Shuangshuang, who did not refuse and accepted them.
Through this incident, Situ Shuangshuang suddenly realized that a tycoon might be right beside her. Zhang Jie never seemed very ostentatious, yet it turns out his family was in the gemstone business!
Zhang Jie wore no male accessories whatsoever, making it completely undetectable that his family specialized in jewelry. It really proved that appearances can be deceiving, and he hid it well, with nobody aware he was a second-generation wealthy individual!
After giving Situ Shuangshuang the reward for saving his life, Zhang Jie then talked about who had harmed him. That person had also been driven mad, ranting wildly at Zhang Jie's doorstep about why Zhang Jie hadn't died, and how his spell was broken. It was through this that Zhang Jie understood the whole story!
This man was also in the jewelry business, and his financial and material resources, even his market competition, overlapped with Zhang Jie's family. So the two families usually enjoyed trying to outdo each other! Both wanted to surpass the other, with neither willing to be inferior!
However, early this year, the rival boss went out driving and accidentally hit someone! With the mindset that hitting someone to death was better than leaving them alive, this unscrupulous boss maliciously reversed his car and intentionally crushed the person to death!
This was originally just an ordinary traffic accident. If it truly were an accidental death, the ghost's resentful energy and obsession generally wouldn't be too intense. But this boss repeatedly reversed to intentionally crush the person to death. The victim was a coward and didn't think of taking revenge themselves but just went straight for reincarnation!
