The King of Curses

Chapter 175 A Private Date with Sister Zhizhen

The next day, the brother and sister were taken back to school on the school bus and then returned home together.

After pushing open the door, Sister Zhizhen, who was wearing an apron and dressed up to look like a good wife and mother, came to greet me.

"It looks like you had a great vacation."

The woman was leaning against the door. She had her thick, black, smooth long hair tied into a big braid that hung down from the side. She looked quite virtuous and smiled gently at the returning brother and sister.

"Yeah, I'm very happy..."

Cen Dongsheng replied.

Yi Qingyan, as always, had no intention of paying any attention to the other person. She put away the smile on her face when she and her brother came back together, took off her sneakers and put on slippers, as if she had ignored An Zhizhen. She didn't even raise her eyes, but deliberately squeezed past the woman.

Looking at the little girl's proud back as she walked towards the living room, Cen Dongsheng sighed.

"…They are still little kids after all."

He rubbed his nose and felt a little sorry for his elder sister.

In a sense, this can be considered "special treatment". She only shows this childish side when facing An Zhizhen; she will never do so in front of insignificant others.

She felt like she was being willful because she was young and was recognized as Cen Dongsheng's "sister".

Of course, there is one more thing. Cen Dongsheng personally measured his sister's development level last night, and it is true... she can no longer be regarded as a child.

An Zhizhen didn't care. She shook her head and said softly.

"I do not mind."

She had long been accustomed to Yi Qingyan's hostility and cold attitude towards her. In the eyes of women, as a special-class spell-forbidden master with an abnormal personality, Qingyan's performance now can be regarded as "well-behaved and cute".

With her brother Cen Dongsheng around, the little girl is like an unrestrained kite with a leash, becoming the type that is easier to control.

"Haha, as long as you don't care, that's good."

Cen Dongsheng smiled awkwardly.

"Of course I don't care. Qingyan is your important sister who will be with you forever."

She said this sincerely.

"Well, that's right..."

only--

An Zhizhen narrowed her eyes and noticed that the man's expression was a little subtle.

Even without using mental interference, she still had a pair of sharp eyes that could see through other people's minds. She guessed what had happened in a moment.

In the final analysis, she had already guessed what would happen on the day the brother and sister decided to go out. After all, Qingyan never bothered to hide her thoughts. She even guessed that the ending of last night would be neither good nor bad...

"Why do you suddenly care about this? You never said it before."

There was a hint of smile in the woman's tone.

Cen Dongsheng replied that he still felt a little guilty in his heart, after all, the other party was his true lover.

"nothing……"

"is it?"

The pair of eyes with long and thick eyelashes and charming and affectionate eyes suddenly shone with water at this moment.

An Zhizhen opened her arms and hugged his arms tightly, and the plump chest that could not be restrained by the thin sweater pressed against him. A pair of moist red lips blew hot air into the ear, and the white pearly teeth gently bit the earlobe, leaving a shallow tooth mark, and the woman's voice was seductive and tender.

"Dongsheng, tonight, let's find a chance to have a good talk, shall we?"

"Okay, okay."

……

Yi Qingyan sat in the living room, turned on the TV, pretending to watch a show, but actually eavesdropping on the conversation between the two.

There was regret between the girl's eyebrows.

If I were to ask whether I was happy or not traveling with my brother this time, the answer was yes. The only complaint I had was that the time we could spend together alone was too short.

Also, she regretted not seizing the opportunity at the last moment and giving up halfway; this emotion was exacerbated after she saw that familiar and annoying face.

But, it doesn't matter. There will be another chance...

*
It's late at night again.

A couple was sitting on the sofa, hugging each other and whispering.

The woman in his arms had a flushed face, her soft skin was shiny, and her towering breasts rose and fell with her breathing, which was very tempting. He was very tempted by her.
But Cen Dongsheng still resisted the urge and listened attentively to the sounds in the house. He was slightly relieved when he heard the girl's steady breathing coming from the bedroom.

Ever since Yi Qingyan revealed to him that she had actually noticed what the two of them had done secretly in the house, he had begun to care a little about his face... although it couldn't change anything.

There is a level of suppression in spiritual perception between him and his sister; Sister Zhizhen must have noticed it, but she obviously doesn't care.

An Zhizhen gathered the messy hair around her ears and whispered:

"Come to think of it, have you solved all the problems with the Human Master? Did you gain anything?"

"Have."

Cen Dongsheng nodded, and he was one step closer to completing "Otherness".

This was his first time as a special-class spell-binding master. Certain things could only be concluded after personal experience, and it was difficult to give any guarantees. Although he had two future "ancestors" around him, they were both born with special-class life-binding spells and could not provide much reference.

But roughly speaking, as long as all nine superpowers are fully mastered, the whole puzzle will be complete; now there are four, and the schedule is almost halfway through.

"Oh, I'm really lucky to be able to complete the part by just going out."

"I think so."

Sister Zhizhen held her chin with one hand and sighed softly.

"For people like me or Qingyan, even if we want to grow from someone, we can't find the target."

"There will be more in the future."

Cen Dongsheng could only answer this way. For these two people, the most convenient thing at the moment is for the two sisters to fight each other, but he couldn't just sit back and watch.

"Forget it. I haven't fully mastered the use of the life ban yet, so I'm not in a hurry."

An Zhizhen smiled slightly.

After a while, she seemed to have thought of something and lowered her head with a thoughtful expression.

"...Tianhai City is a prosperous international metropolis."

"?"

Cen Dongsheng was stunned for a moment, not knowing why she suddenly said that.

"But behind the prosperity and hugeness, it also means that in invisible places, there are extremely serious filth and corruption. The fertile interests and intricate interpersonal networks cover up too many things."

said the woman.

Cen Dongsheng touched his chin and tried to follow her thoughts.

"... In other words, there are many examples like 'Human Teacher'?"

"That's my guess. Although there aren't ghosts at the level of the owner of the house everywhere, there might still be a few left that are worthy of being used as 'upgrades' for you."

"Oh……"

The man's heart warmed up.

Of course, he also wanted to complete the curse quickly. Although his progress since his rebirth was not slow, in order to achieve the lofty goal in his heart, he had to seize every opportunity to achieve a rapid leap in his strength level.

"I mentioned to you last time that the pilot period of the Super Working Committee has passed, and it will be popularized nationwide and blossom everywhere. I would like to take this opportunity to promote a census project that can lay the foundation for the direction of future social order..." "Yes."

Cen Dongsheng nodded.

Of course he remembered the movement to cut down mountains and destroy temples.

By the way, it was after this movement that the number of supernatural events increased dramatically, and the "first wave" entered its climax.

Of course, there is no causal relationship between the two, it’s simply the right time.

This incident proved the foresight of An Zhizhen and other behind-the-scenes promoters. Before the wave of spiritual energy revival came, the Super Working Committee successfully established the general framework of a national supernatural event response organization, connecting the vast majority of supernatural power users, and thus the prototype was born.

It is precisely because of this structure that the Supernatural Disasters Working Committee will be able to respond relatively promptly to major supernatural disasters occurring in various regions in the future.

If you want to implement new policies after a year or so, it will be very difficult; for movements such as "cutting down mountains and destroying temples", the resistance to implementation will become extremely large -

Whether it's haunted houses and monsters everywhere, or curse masters with ulterior motives, it's enough to cause trouble for those involved.

In the future, the governments of some countries will be too slow to respond in this regard. As a result, after the spiritual energy recovery reaches its climax, they will be completely unable to prevent the collapse of social order, and will fall into long-term chaos.

The tide of the times is mighty. If you follow it, you will prosper; if you go against it, you will perish.

Only those who have both wisdom and courage can ride the wind and waves. Those who cannot accept and respond in time are destined to be eliminated, destroyed and swallowed up.

Relatively speaking, for such a large country, the process of transitioning from a social order dominated by ordinary people to one dominated by spell-binding masters has been smooth. Although there are still a few unavoidable regional disasters...

These thoughts flashed through Cen Dongsheng's mind.

He was not prepared to keep himself out of it and treat the information that could save many people as a treasure that belonged only to him; but he was not prepared to take on the responsibility himself either. He was really not talented in this area. Being able to hand over the information to An Zhizhen at the right time was the greatest contribution a reborn person could make to the world.

"This matter naturally starts from Tianhai City."

An Zhizhen said.

"Let's wait and see. Once the news spreads, there will always be people who can't wait to jump out."

……

This was considered a verbal agreement between the two of them, and it was settled.

Cen Dongsheng couldn't help but sigh again that he was really lucky to have such a big supporter. Almost everything he wanted was achieved. If he had to fight alone, he would definitely not have gotten so many opportunities in the early days of the first wave.

Afterwards, the conversation between the lovers turned to a more lighthearted topic.

"Yufeng..."

An Zhizhen watched Cen Dongsheng demonstrate his new ability: the man spread out his palms, creating a breeze that blew the wind chimes on the eaves of the door, making crisp bell sounds.

"How interesting."

She sighed, a light flashing in her eyes.

"Speaking of which, Dongsheng...it's been a long time since we went out on a date alone, right?"

Cen Dongsheng was stunned.

Not to mention "it's been a long time", it felt like it was the first time they even went out on a date after becoming lovers.

He couldn't help but feel that he was an unreliable man. After all, it was his first time dating someone and he lacked experience... Fortunately, Sister Zhizhen didn't care, and this time she took the initiative to bring it up.

"Last time, after you awakened your new powers, you took your sister out for a walk. Can you take me with you this time?"

The woman grabbed his palm and rubbed it gently, carefully feeling the lines on the palm.

"Of course!"

He readily agreed.

"I'm looking forward to it." Sister Zhizhen smiled contentedly, "After two days, when everything is arranged, we'll go out."

*
The journey is over, and the matter of sorcerers, cults and ghosts has come to an end.

Cen Dongsheng resumed his old lifestyle, going to school and attending classes, all emphasizing freedom.

That afternoon, the students who were taking a break in the classroom were once again disturbed by uninvited guests.

It’s still Song Yutang.

Her return did not cause any surprise this time, but the students around them still couldn't help but secretly look at the two of them with curious eyes.

"Master, are you busy recently? You seem to have not contacted me since the final exam. What about the next mission? Have you decided where to go?"

The girl sat in his back seat just like last time, but her demeanor was much more natural and she asked him a bunch of questions.

Cen Dongsheng sighed.

"Don't worry. I'm busy lately and don't have time."

I have a date with Sister Zhizhen tonight.

"Oh."

Song Yutang nodded obediently in agreement, but she soon changed into a mysterious tone.

"I have something to report to you!"

"what's up?"

"I feel, uh, it's just a feeling... After all, Master, your request to me at that time was very vague, so I'm not sure if it's true. If it's not true, please don't be angry..."

Why are you hesitating... Do I look like the kind of master who would teach his apprentice mercilessly and harshly?

Cen Dongsheng found it funny.

"You mean to say that you found the person I asked you to find, right? It's okay, just tell me the name, I will confirm the details myself, and I won't blame you if I find the wrong person."

"……it is good."

Song Yutang nodded.

"I feel like Senior Jiang, the person who helped me last time... is probably her."

"Jiang Yunmei..."

Cen Dongsheng recalled that face.

We only met once last time, so I couldn't tell anything special about her. I just remember that girl... was very pretty.

She is a bookish beauty with a unique temperament.

The ratio of handsome men and beautiful women among top-level spell-forbidden masters is unexpectedly high, so it is not impossible—

"Is there any evidence?"

"Yes. But she behaves strangely sometimes..."

According to Song Yutang's speculation, Senior Sister Jiang was able to find the gathering place of Ke Junchen and the cultists all on her own, and not based on existing intelligence, but through "a certain way of searching."

When Cen Dongsheng heard this, he felt that this person might indeed be the "Miao Shen Zi" and that the spiritual perception of an ordinary spell-caster could not do such a thing.

He thought for a moment and asked:
"Did she ever tell you why she was helping you?"

"No."

"According to what you said, regardless of whether Jiang Yunmei has mastered certain abilities, she now calls herself an ordinary person, right?"

Cen Dongsheng guessed.

"So, would an 'ordinary person' be so concerned about something like this? Not only did she provide you with information, she also took the initiative to help drive and act with you. There must be a deeper reason behind this."
