The Ninth Lady is a rebellious person.

Chapter 559 Defying Fate and Making It One's Own

Seeing that Wen Yue had made up her mind, Lang Jiuchuan no longer hesitated. He took out yellow paper, took blood from her fingertip, dipped it in cinnabar, and wrote a petition in her name. He also drew a talisman to inform Heaven and Earth on the petition.

Fate cannot be defied. Forcibly stripping away a person's destiny will inevitably backfire. If one is not careful, not only will the practitioner suffer, but the victim will also suffer a life of illness and hardship, or even have their soul scattered.

Lang Jiuchuan won't bear too much of the consequences. Wen Yue is the mother, and if she wants to protect her child, she has to pay the price.

The contract was completed.

Lang Jiuchuan then took another piece of yin wood and quickly shaved it into a small wooden figure with a knife. She also took the baby's hair and nails and stuck them onto the wooden figure. Then she used her blood essence to draw the birth date and time on the wooden figure.

This is similar to the principle behind helping Yang Xiuyong at the Yang family ancestral graves. She planned to act as a substitute, defy fate, attract the phoenix back to the nest, and break the noble status.

She placed the little wooden figure inside a small magic circle, then glanced at the swaddling clothes. Although she didn't know what the future held, she was willing to give this child a path different from her own.

Lang Jiuchuan looked at Jiang Che, who understood and jumped onto the roof, spreading his divine sense to protect her.

A stick of incense was lit, and wisps of blue smoke rose straight up.

Lang Jiuchuan formed intricate hand seals, gently patted the proclamation to Heaven, and murmured: "Heaven and Earth shine brightly, righteousness is radiant, the spirit treasure talisman proclaims to the nine heavens... By my way, I lead the phoenix back to its nest, inheriting the mandate of Heaven, I issue this decree!"

A pure Daoist power condensed at her fingertips, vast and powerful, as if flowing light emerged from it, transforming into fine golden threads.

Wen Yue and her group watched from the side, not daring to breathe. They looked up and saw that a dark cloud had gathered overhead, with what appeared to be flashes of lightning.

The will of Heaven cannot be defied; even petitioning is going against Heaven's will.

Wen Yue's heart was pounding, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead. She leaned weakly against Lang Caining.

Her visit to the Wanshi Shop was a spur-of-the-moment decision. It was Lu Ruiting's harassment that made her uneasy and anxious, and deep down she felt an urgent need to ask Lang Caining to come and find Lang Jiuchuan, as if she could give her some reassurance.

Unexpectedly, this led to a reunion between her and her daughter.

She didn't have time to ask Lang Jiuchuan how he found the child, but it must have taken a lot of effort.

Now, she is forced to remove the death warrant from her child, and as a mother, her heart is breaking as she bears the invisible pressure that has descended upon her.

Dark, heavy clouds gathered overhead.

Lang Jiuchuan probed the wisp of spiritual energy deep into the girl's brow, capturing the pure purple aura belonging to her phoenix destiny. She did not devour or destroy it, but instead wrapped it with spiritual power, completely merging the purple aura with her spiritual power before drawing it out.

She quickly changed her hand seals, channeling the wisp of spiritual power containing the Phoenix Fate Purple Qi into the substitute.

However, an unexpected change occurred.

As if the heavens were against her resistance, just as that wisp of spiritual power was about to fall into the substitute, the dark clouds overhead suddenly tore open, and a bolt of white light and lightning descended from the sky.

With a glare, the tiger let out a fierce roar, unleashing its killing power. It leaped forward, meeting the lightning bolt head-on and swallowing it whole.

In Wujing City, some people saw a phantom of a fierce tiger appear in the sky and heard a tiger's roar. They exclaimed that a divine beast had descended and knelt down to worship.

Wen Ze nearly fell to the ground, swallowing hard as he stared at the enormous phantom. It wasn't a cat, it was a real tiger!

Meanwhile, Lang Jiuchuan's expression turned grim as he watched the wisp of spiritual energy suddenly surge, unwilling to enter the wooden substitute, and instead trying to re-enter the baby girl's brow.

The purple aura enveloped by her pure Daoist essence will transform into spiritual power, which will be even more powerful than the original purple aura. Once this spiritual power invades the infant girl, her infant body, which has not yet cultivated, will absolutely not be able to withstand its violence and will surely explode and die!

The baby girl seemed to feel an unprecedented fear and destruction, and cried out in a hoarse voice. Wen Yue, who had been watching her, felt a sharp pain in her heart, and a trace of blood seeped from the corner of her mouth. She almost rushed forward.

"Elder sister, don't make things worse." Lang Caining's face was pale, but she held on tightly and shouted, "Making things worse will only lead them into a desperate situation."

Wen Yue's tears streamed down her face. She knelt on the ground with a thud, clasped her hands together, and murmured, "God, if you have any grievances, take them out on me. If you want divine punishment, please let it fall on me."

Lang Jiuchuan's mind stirred, and he unleashed a series of Daoist auras upon the baby girl, severing the wisp of Phoenix Fate Purple Spirit from entering her body. He then separated a thought and forcibly pulled it into the substitute body.

The purple spirit was violent, its energy forming a whirlwind that refused to enter the substitute.

"If that's the case, why not use it for our own purposes?" The water spirit's voice came from the bone bell, which trembled and became restless, as if it were fighting against the purple spirit.

Lang Jiuchuan pursed his lips, no longer clinging to the idea. His fingers moved rapidly, drawing the wisp of purple spirit and quickly guiding it into his brow.

If a stand-in won't work, then she will become the vessel!
This act is tantamount to extracting another person's destiny for one's own use, which is intolerable according to the laws of nature.

Sure enough, as she drew the lightning from between her eyebrows, a bolt of purple lightning descended, striking Lang Jiuchuan directly.

Lang Jiuchuan cast a protective barrier around Wen Yue and the others. The next instant, she was struck by lightning. She spat out a mouthful of blood essence. The power of the lightning raged throughout her body and caused the Phoenix Life Purple Spirit to stir in her meridians.

"By my life, by the veins of the earth, by the destiny of the living, I command!" she uttered softly, mobilizing the dragon vein essence that had circulated throughout her body during her Nirvana, enveloping the Phoenix Life Purple Spirit as if it had transformed into countless fine threads, wrapping it, merging and catalyzing it, making it into true chaotic energy, flowing through her limbs and bones.

Another bolt of lightning struck.

She summoned the Emperor Bell, placing it atop her head to absorb all the power of the thunder and temper its body.

After the three bolts of lightning, the dark clouds seemed to be blown away by the wind and gradually dispersed.

On the other hand, Lang Jiuchuan, as he channeled the chaotic energy through his meridians, his face changed like a face-changing act in Sichuan, sometimes white, sometimes red, sometimes purple, sometimes blue, and blood seeped from his seven orifices.

Lang Caining's eyes turned red, her nose tingled, and large tears fell down her cheeks. There was no such thing as extraordinary talent; it was all earned by risking one's life, wasn't it?

How can an ordinary person withstand being struck by lightning?
Lang Jiuchuan coughed up mouthfuls of blood, but after circulating the chaotic energy throughout her body and pressing it deep within her dantian, she looked inward and saw a small vortex of chaotic energy forming there, and she was overjoyed.

It possesses both the aura of the dragon vein and the purple aura of the phoenix destiny, which will become her power.

Although this went against her initial idea, the core essence remained unchanged, and it ultimately broke the baby girl's phoenix destiny.

Lang Jiuchuan turned to look at the baby girl and said gently, "You gave me this wisp of purple aura destiny, and I will return you a protective essence."

She put two fingers together and channeled a stream of spiritual energy into the child's brow, making it impossible for evil spirits to invade, turning misfortune into good fortune, and protecting the child's safety!
