Rules of the Strange: I Became a God in a Bizarre World Through Taoist Arts

Guan Shanyue fell into deep thought.

"Perhaps next time I enter the National Fortune Value Exchange Shop, I should choose an item that allows me to empathize with Xingzhuo."

In the simpler ghost stories mentioned earlier, such an information gap between the two might not seem like much.

But at this strange juncture, she sincerely believed that empathy could resolve many doubts.

After all, it wasn't appropriate for Shen Xingzhuo to explain everything she was experiencing to outsiders all the time while she was "experiencing" the ghost stories.

……

In ghost stories.

After Shen Xingzhuo calmed down from the nausea, she saw Pei Xi looking at her with a puzzled expression.

She never expected a strange creature to empathize with her thoughts, so she simply twitched the corner of her mouth and offered no further explanation.

But Pei Xi did not give up on this doubt.

"Mother, what's wrong? If it will make you uncomfortable if I devour my sister, I can refuse to do it."

Pei Xi's voice sounded more mature than before.

The stage between when a child's voice truly changes and their voice actually begins to change.

However, his height did not change, so Shen Xingzhuo inevitably felt unable to adapt to such a change.

The concern he expressed was not out of human compassion.

More importantly, it's because Pei Xi has always been a staunch "mother-centric" child.

He could "eliminate" his unborn sister for his mother, and he could do anything for his mother.

If he weren't eccentric and didn't resort to underhanded methods, then he truly was a pure and filial good child.

Shen Xingzhu shook his head and answered seriously:

"Mother isn't afraid of discomfort, so Xi'er, feel free to do whatever you want."

She did not answer that she would be strong for the sake of the children.

Because all she did was not for these children who might never be born, but to dispel the dark clouds that had hung over the Pei family for many years.

Pei Xi stared blankly into her eyes, and after confirming several times, he nodded and turned to do his own thing.

After dodging several times, Shen Xingzhuo finally met Madam Pei's gaze.

She bit her fingertip until blood seeped out, then with a flick of her wrist, drew a soothing talisman on Madam Pei's face.

Golden incantations poured from her mouth.

It landed on Madam Pei's eyes, which were shrouded in gloom.

After a short while, Madam Pei regained some clarity of mind.

Taking the opportunity, Shen Xingzhuo raised her voice and said, "Mother! For your daughters!"

She didn't say it was for her daughters' sake, but she silently included Pei Yin among Madam Pei's children.

Madam Pei's attacks did not stop there.

Shen Xingzhuo sighed softly.

"I originally wanted to use some gentler methods."

Her tone was full of regret.

"Since that's the case..."

She gently closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her entire demeanor became completely different.

"The Supreme Lord issues a decree of amnesty, issued with a talisman. In the six heavens of Luo Feng, the laws are clearly proclaimed. Your sins are overflowing, your soul cannot be forgiven. May you be exonerated in the Nine Netherworlds and eternally imprisoned in the underworld..."

This is the spell she used to suppress her brother's evil spirit.

This has led to questions among those who view the celestial canopy.

[What is Sister Shen trying to do? Isn't this a spell to suppress evil spirits? Although Madam Pei is... she doesn't deserve this, does she?]

However, given that Madam Pei's strength is indeed greater than Sister Shen's, using a surprise tactic when one cannot win is understandable.

Actually, I think Sister Shen always uses spells flexibly and creatively; there must be something about her that we don't understand.

[Look! Madam Pei!!!]
