My Ares Son-in-Law
Chapter 7723 The Old Charlatan
In the living room of the Yu family villa.
Huang Qiankun looked unusually different today. He not only exuded an imposing aura, but also had an undisguised sharpness that was rather eye-catching.
At this moment, he changed into a brand-new bright yellow Taoist robe. The gold thread on the robe was obviously very valuable, and the gold thread was not just randomly embroidered, but formed strange patterns.
Anyone who can read it will be able to tell that it looks like some kind of rune.
As the saying goes, clothes make the man and a saddle makes the horse. Huang Qiankun looked like a fraud before, but today, with this outfit, he looks like a sage with a touch of otherworldly elegance.
The center of the hall had already been tidied up, and an exquisite altar stood prominently. The altar surface was covered with shimmering bright yellow silk, with subtle patterns embroidered along the edges.
Dozens of copper coins are cleverly arranged according to the positions of the Five Elements and the Eight Trigrams. Most notably, there are also ritual objects such as Five Emperor Coins, Seven Star Sword, and Eight Trigram Mirror on top.
It really felt like a ritual being performed. In any case, the atmosphere was definitely there. As for whether it had any effect, let's leave that aside for now.
Although everything was ready and all that was needed was for Master Huang to win, Yu Zhiqiang felt somewhat uneasy.
He hadn't taken Xiao Chen's previous words seriously, thinking they were just the arrogant boasting of a young man who didn't know his place.
However, Chen Xue and Chen Shaocong's expressions made him begin to doubt his own judgment, especially Qin Xianglan's words and her attitude towards Xiao Chen, which made his unease even stronger.
He wanted to change his attitude and apologize to Xiao Chen, but Huang Qiankun was, after all, a distinguished guest he had personally invited, and they had reached some kind of agreement. If he betrayed Huang Qiankun now, not only would he be laughed at if word got out, but Huang Qiankun would not forgive him.
He had witnessed Huang Qiankun's abilities firsthand.
Just as he was lost in thought, Huang Qiankun's voice rang out.
"Mr. Yu, are the copper coins and incense ready?"
"Ready! Ready! Master Huang, please wait a moment!" Yu Zhiqiang responded hurriedly, not having time to think further, he just wanted to get the task at hand done.
He quickly ordered his men to bring up the prepared copper coins and incense, afraid of slighting this "master".
Huang Qiankun glanced at the things the servant brought, nodded in satisfaction, and his expression remained arrogant.
Immediately, he raised his hand and took out a blood jade incense burner from the wide sleeve of his Taoist robe. The incense burner was dark red all over, with fine patterns flowing on its surface.
It looked like bloodstains on a human body, sending chills down one's spine and making one feel quite uncomfortable.
Huang Qiankun ignored everyone's opinions and placed the incense burner on the altar.
Then he took out several talismans drawn with cinnabar and placed them under the incense burner for later use.
After doing all this, he slowly stood up and looked at Chen Jianguo, who was waiting to the side: "What are you still standing there for? Come here and stand in front of this altar!"
Chen Jianguo swallowed hard and walked over nervously.
Actually, he was still a little scared, mainly because Huang Qiankun's methods were too wicked, and he was afraid of being tricked by Huang Qiankun.
He subconsciously looked at Xiao Chen, hoping that Xiao Chen would give him some advice, but Xiao Chen didn't look at him at all, instead closing his eyes to rest.
He sighed and could only follow Huang Qiankun's instructions.
Now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to try anything, even if it seems hopeless.
After he stood still, Huang Qiankun began chanting incantations, which echoed in the empty hall, sending chills down one's spine. At a certain moment, Huang Qiankun suddenly grabbed a handful of copper coins and scattered them into the air. The coins landed on the ground, precisely in the array surrounding the altar.
Immediately afterwards, he lit the talisman placed under the incense burner, and with a "whoosh," the flame suddenly shot up more than a foot high.
"Heaven and Earth are the origin of all things, the root of all energy! Cultivate for countless eons, and prove my divine powers!" Huang Qiankun chanted the incantation in a stern voice.
While chanting the incantation, Huang Qiankun grabbed the Seven Star Sword from the altar and waved the tip of the sword above Chen Jianguo's head a few times, as if he were slaying evil spirits.
"Ouch...it hurts, it hurts so much! My head hurts so much, help me, help me, it feels like something is trying to jump out and get hungry!!"
Chen Jianguo screamed in agony. Not only that, but as the screams rang out, blood began to flow from his eyes, nose, and mouth. The blood was black.
This scene startled everyone.
"Dad, what's wrong? Let me help you!" Chen Xue saw that this was no good; her father looked like he had been poisoned and was in so much pain, so she went over to help.
"Sister, just stay quiet. Would Master Huang harm Dad? You have to trust Master Huang's skills!"
Chen Shaocong reached out and grabbed Chen Xue, saying, "The more tense things are at this time, the less you can do anything rash!"
Yu Zhiqiang added, "Young Master Chen is right. You absolutely cannot act rashly now. Master Huang is casting a spell to save your father. If you rush over now, you will not only interrupt the spell but also ruin everything. In that case, no one will be able to save your father!"
After they said that, Chen Xue didn't dare to do anything reckless.
But seeing her father's miserable state, she couldn't bear it, so she simply closed her eyes and covered her ears.
Huang Qiankun continued chanting the incantation. He seemed to have anticipated Chen Jianguo's miserable state, so he was not in a hurry.
Next, he circled Chen Jianguo three times. Of course, he wasn't just wandering around randomly; he stepped on copper coins and followed a formation.
However, with each step he took, Chen Jianguo cried out in pain.
The cries were even more pitiful.
This continued for a full five or six minutes before Huang Qiankun stopped, pointing his Seven Star Sword at Chen Jianguo's brow: "You audacious monster, leave at once! Break!"
Upon hearing Huang Qiankun's shout, Chen Jianguo collapsed to the ground, panting heavily as if he had just endured inhuman treatment.
However, he stopped screaming.
It's a bit of a waste; his face was covered in blood, making him look like a vengeful ghost from hell.
However, upon closer inspection, one can see that Chen Jianguo's eyes are clearer than usual, as if the spell is truly effective.
"I don't feel pain anymore!" Chen Jianguo murmured to himself, even a little excited. He felt that Huang Qiankun was really capable and had helped him solve his problem.
"Nonsense, I've already cast the spell for you. If it has no effect at all, wouldn't that ruin my own reputation?"
Huang Qiankun sheathed the Seven Star Sword, pretended to be tired, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said disdainfully.
Yu Zhiqiang also happily said, "Mr. Chen, congratulations! The evil energy in your home has been completely cleared away by Master Huang. Hurry up and thank Master Huang! What are you standing there for? You should kneel down before Master Huang! This has solved a huge problem for your Chen family!" (End of Chapter)
