On the roof was the condemned soul, staring right at her while clinging to the roof upside down. Its void eyes were staring at her unblinkingly and Song Yan rubbed her ring, prepared to deal with that thing if it made a move but surprisingly it didn't, instead it stayed where it was, with its gaze flickering between her and Fang Yanli.
" It can sense my cultivation level," said Fang Yanli as she finally realised why the condemned soul wasn't attacking them. " Maybe these things can't sense the cultivation level of a human but it can definitely sense mine. It knows that at the moment it's a lot weaker when compared to me, that's why it hasn't moved an inch from the roof."
The fact that the condemned soul was able to think so much and have such an understanding struck ominous to Song Yan as she looked at Au Lisha and said, " Please take me there quickly."
Au Lisha could sense the urgency in Song Yan's voice and instinctively her pace increased as she climbed two steps at the same time, Song Yan followed after Au Lisha to the second floor and once they reached Au Mei's room, she carefully bent down to study Au Mei who was sleeping soundly. Though it looked like she was sleeping soundly but in truth, she was actually unconscious and her temperature was dropping bit by bit every minute.
Old master Au who have followed the two women also came to stand beside his daughter and sucked in a breath as he watched Song Yan looking at Au Mei. Seeing that she hadn't made a move for a very long time and instead seemed to be thinking about something deeply, he couldn't but be puzzled at the sight of her just standing there doing nothing.
" What's wrong?" asked Au Lisha, when she saw that Song Yan wasn't doing anything.
" Someone warned your husband or should I say little Mei's father," said Song Yan with her star-like eyes narrowed in deep contemplation. " Your daughter's condition is a lot worse than I expected it to be, which is a clear indication that someone actually tipped off your husband, who later on urged the master to speed the process of the manifestation of the curse. With my powers and the talisman alone, the curse should not have spread so much in such a small period but it has… which means someone tried to interfere in between. If not for the safety talisman that I gave you to put on your daughter, she would have been dead by now."
Au Lisha's brows jumped to the roof as she hurriedly rushed toward Au Mei and touched her daughter's forehead and felt her heart tremble. Song Yan was right, her daughter's temperature was really low it was as if she was already dead, if not for the stable rise and fall of her daughter's chest, she would have thought that her daughter was —— she didn't finish thinking that thought, her daughter was still alive and Song Yan was here, so nothing will happen.
" Lisha don't tell me you——-" Old master Au's voice interrupted everyone's chain of thoughts and Au Lisha who was crouching next to her daughter's bed shook her head as she looked at her father. " I didn't! Ever since we returned home, you know that I was with you dad, how can I even call that man without you knowing? And why will I call that man? I might be a bit naive but I am not that an idiot!"
Old master Au nodded, his daughter was right. No matter how much of a lovesick fool she was, she loved her daughter more than her husband—- she will definitely not call that Yu Yize, so then… he turned to look at Au Cheung who looked back at him with an affronted expression on his face.
Her heart was in the right place, she thought that her masters were being fooled but this small action of hers to do something without taking permission from her master caused a big ruckus since Yu Yize was alerted and in return alerted the scurrilous spirit master.
" I will deal with you later," said Au Lisha, her expression cold. Though she understood where the housekeeping lady was coming from, it didn't mean that she was going to forgive her.
Song Yan glanced at the help who was shivering and shook her head, she then turned to look at Au Lisha whose expression has worsened and said, " I can still take the curse down, don't worry about it." She paused and let the Au family heave a sigh of relief before she continued, " I have two methods to take the curse down and you can choose one from them. The first one is simple, I break the curse and let the curse rebound itself on the caster and the second one is to break the curse, and let the curse rebound itself on the caster but there is a little trick in here, I can use my powers to return a bit of the curse to where it came from, after all, innocent or not, evil has to be punished. Of course, if you chose the second option you will have to loose your pockets a bit more, so what will be it?
P.s: Its the start of the month please please please …. Start it off with a bang! It gives me motivation to be consistent or else I shrivel up like a dried fig.
