Chapter 280 Soul Devouring Curse

"No, that's not the case." Madam Zhou shouted angrily, "You, you followed me. No, you, you just let me go on purpose."

Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "If not, how can I find your hiding place?"

"What did you mean when you said that the blood-attracting Gu couldn't save my son's life?"

Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "Of course it means literally." She looked outside and said, "Mrs. Zhou, don't you think that a blood-attracting Gu can bring people back to life?"

The figure outside the door paused, and Shang Ruoyi continued, "As long as the curse on your son is not resolved, let alone the blood-attracting Gu, even if the gods in the sky come, they can't save him. Instead, they will make wedding dresses for others."

As soon as she finished speaking, a red figure rushed in and slapped her on the back.

Shang Ruoyi curled the corners of her lips and did not move. She saw Ah Cheng appear in front of her, with the long sword in his hand drawn. The sharp blade scratched her skin, and blood immediately gushed out on her arm. Ah Cheng kicked her fiercely, directly kicking her in the lower abdomen.

"Puff!" A mouthful of blood spurted out, and Xiao Tao's body scraped against the ground and retreated backwards. A venomous look flashed in her eyes: "Who, who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am. What really matters is who you are." Shang Ruoyi sneered, "That spell was your work?"

"I am just a servant of the Madam. I don't know what kind of spell you are talking about." She barely supported herself. As soon as she moved, Ah Cheng's sword was placed across her neck: "Don't move!"

"Xiao Tao has been by my side since she was a child. How could she know how to cast spells?" Madam Zhou said coldly, "You want to drive a wedge between us, master and servant. What is your intention?"

"I just want you to recognize a reality." She looked at Xiao Tao and smiled, "You said you don't understand spells, so who cast the spell in this room?"

Xiao Tao's eyes flickered, and she whispered, "What spell is there in the room?"

"Soul Devouring Curse."

what?

Mrs. Zhou's expression suddenly changed. Soul-devouring Curse?

How could there be a Soul-Devouring Curse here?

The Soul-Devouring Curse is a secret method from southern Xinjiang. The birth date of the person who is cursed is pasted on a puppet. The puppet has been soaked in blood for 9981 days before that. After the birth date is pasted on, a little blood is smeared on the puppet's head. A drop of blood is taken every five days, and then someone else's hair is wrapped around the puppet. The life force of the cursed person will be transferred to that person little by little.

But the Soul-Devouring Curse is a spell that only exists in legends. Even in southern Xinjiang, few people know about it, and Mrs. Zhou has only heard of it.

"What on earth are you talking about?" Mrs. Zhou looked at Shang Ruoyi and asked coldly.

"You killed Master Zhou's biological mother with your witchcraft, didn't you?"

Mrs. Zhou nodded: "So what? She took away everything from me, she deserves to die!"

"But you suffered a backlash from the poisonous insect." Shang Ruoyi whispered, "I guess that lady realized she was poisoned and was trying to find a way to cure it when you discovered it."

"Yes, I took the opportunity when she returned to Cao's house to put a Gu in her. Her Gu technique is comparable to mine. If it weren't for Xiao Tao, I'm afraid I wouldn't have let her die so smoothly. But that bitch actually found out, and I was afraid that she would detoxify herself, so she directly killed the mother Gu in my body. Even if it means losing eight hundred lives, I must take her life." The expression on Mrs. Zhou's face was extremely ferocious. Shang Ruoyi saw it and couldn't help but feel that she was very pathetic. She hoped that she would still do so when the truth was revealed.

"Later, you married into the Zhou family. Due to the backlash of the witchcraft, the child was extremely poisoned and was born weak." Shang Ruoyi walked forward slowly, looking at the baby in the cradle who seemed to be in a state of death: "But he shouldn't be this weak, so why did he become like this?"

"Why?" Mrs. Zhou thought of a possibility and her heart skipped a beat.

"He has been under the Soul Devouring Curse since he was born." Shang Ruoyi stepped forward, pointed at a red spot on his neck and said, "It will be best to apply the blood from the neck on your forehead. Madam Zhou would know that, right?"

Madam Zhou stumbled a bit, staring at the glaring red dot, and kept repeating, "Impossible! You're lying to me!"

"Why should I lie to you?" Shang Ruoyi sneered, "I just want to tell you that you have been living in the calculations of others all these years."

"Will not!"

"I'm sure you'll know the truth once you ask."

As Shang Ruoyi finished speaking, Mrs. Zhou's gaze fell on Xiaotao.

Xiao Tao's body trembled: "Madam, it's unfair! Madam!"

"Only you and I know about this." Madam Zhou walked forward slowly, her eyes sharp as if she could see through her: "Soul Devouring Curse, what exactly is going on?"

"Madam, it must be her!" Xiao Tao pointed at Shang Ruoyi: "She must have set it up in advance to alienate the two of us."

Shang Ruoyi sneered: "This is my first time coming to the Zhou family today, and my first time meeting you guys. I'm afraid it's a bit far-fetched if Miss Xiaotao wants to frame me."

"Where's the evidence?" Xiao Tao whispered, "You said I cast the curse, so where is the puppet?"

"You thought you did it secretly." She sneered and pointed to the north wall and said, "Such private matters cannot be seen in public. You hid the puppet in the north wall."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Tao's face suddenly turned pale.

Seeing this, Madam Zhou trembled and said, "Why? I treat you well, why do you do this!"

Xiao Tao looked at her gloomily: "Why? Why? Have you forgotten? How did you save your life?"

Mrs. Zhou was shocked when she heard this: "You, you are that child..."

"That's my brother. Back then, Master Cao used the Soul Devouring Curse to exchange my brother's life for yours. He was also still in his infancy. Did you ever feel sorry for him? Did you ever pity him? Now, I just want you to pay for your blood debt with blood. What's wrong with that?"

Mrs. Zhou stepped back again and again and almost fell to the ground.

There is no solution to the Soul-Devouring Curse. She has never heard of anyone coming back alive after being hit by this curse, unless, unless that person is killed.

"Who have you tied my son's life to?"

Xiao Tao sneered, "He was just a beggar on the street. I saw he was dying of illness, so I gave him a new life out of kindness. Hahaha! You will never, ever be able to break his spell."

"I can break it." Shang Ruoyi said calmly, "I can break the Soul Devouring Curse."
