Jiang Cheng was originally the grandson of his younger brother who had died many years ago, and he didn't have much affection for him. He just thought that the Jiang family needed a leader because he saw that Yao Feiran had good potential. However, Yao Feiran was so naive and lacked a sense of the big picture that he almost ruined his plans. With Yao Feiran's potential, he might have been able to learn some talisman techniques, but now that's all gone.

Grandpa Jiang called Jiang Hezhou: "Find a new housekeeper for the family. Find someone who can see things clearly."

"Old man, what happened?"

The Jiang family's steward is hard to find. Ever since the last traitor appeared, they now have to investigate people carefully when looking for them, as the probability of betrayal is extremely low. So Jiang Hezhou was a little curious.

"You'll find out if you just ask him."

After hanging up the phone, Grandpa Jiang said calmly, "Go back to your parents' place tomorrow."

Jiang Cheng exclaimed excitedly, "Just because of this, Grandfather is going to send me back? I am a member of the Jiang family. If you give me the resources, I can also break through to the Xuan rank."

Grandpa Jiang was so angry he laughed. Jiang Cheng's breakthrough to the Yellow Rank at his age was probably due to the resources he received. He probably got carried away by the compliments from others and thought that the Profound Rank was so easy to break through. He even looked down on Yao Feiran.

"I built the Jiang family from scratch, and I can give it to whomever I want. You have no right to tell me these things."

"Old Master Jiang said expressionlessly. With the pressure of a Earth-Rank Celestial Master, Jiang Cheng knelt directly on the ground."

A look of terror flashed in his eyes, and some horrifying image invaded his mind.

"I'm sorry, Fei Ran."

"It's alright, sir, I was just being too serious."

"So what? He just doesn't understand the situation. He Zhou will prepare your things. If He Zhou hadn't said he didn't want to get married and have children in the future, I wouldn't have let Jiang Cheng come. He doesn't understand the thinking of young people these days."

However, Grandpa Jiang guessed that He Zhou's decision was probably due to his parents' situation, and he could only respect his decision.

Yao Feiran was surprised that the old man was so modern. Jiang Hezhou was actually a non-marriage advocate, and it was said that he rarely had any scandals.

After Jiang Cheng left, Yao Feiran had much more peace and quiet. After preparing the items to weaken the curse, she contacted Zhao Zhiran directly.

"Zhao Zhiran, give me an address."

"I'm in apartment 301, building 6, Shancheng residential area, but I'm very weak right now and can't do anything."

Seeing Yao Feiran's call, he knew she must need his help, so he gave her his address.

Zhao Zhirang has been unable to go to the company for the past few days because after a night of pain, she has no energy at all the next day and is extremely tired.

He was resting in another apartment, telling others that he was away on a business trip.

Yao Feiran found Zhao Zhiran by following the address. He had been resting all day, but now that it was almost dusk, he started to feel pain again, and long hair had grown on his body.

"Judging from your current state, it seems like you're about to have to move back into the rental agreement."

"You didn't come all this way just to laugh at me, did you?"

Zhao Zhirang gave a bitter smile. Tormented by the curse for two days, he was now filled with violent anger. If he didn't know he couldn't provoke Yao Feiran, he would have already cursed.

Yao Feiran casually set up a platform. Under the rules of this world, some large-scale spells are quite complex. She inserted the Three Pure Incense sticks into the platform, drew in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, mixed the incense ash with the water blessed by the talisman, and poured it directly into Zhao Zhiran's mouth.

Zhao Zhirang almost choked to death, but Yao Feiran held him down so he couldn't move and was forced to swallow the awful water.

A few seconds later, he felt a tingling sensation all over his body, like being pricked by tiny needles. His endurance, honed over many years, was evident as sweat poured from his forehead.

Zhao Zhirang fainted immediately.

He opened his eyes after an unknown amount of time and saw that it was pitch black outside. He discovered that the hair on his body was gone and he felt no pain.

Yao Feiran said, "You shouldn't need to hide this year."

"You've lifted the curse?"

"No, it's just temporarily suppressed. The full moon next year will still be as usual. I can use magic, but the effect will get worse and worse. Also, this time it took me a lot of effort. Transfer two million to me."

Zhao Zhirang hesitated for a while before instructing his assistant to transfer the money.

Yao Feiran received the money, and it was already past midnight. She went to another room to sleep for the night.

As she was leaving, Zhao Zhirang said, "Let me see you off."

"Are you all better now?"

"Yes, thank you very much, Ms. Yao. I'll head to the company shortly."

Yao Feiran did not refuse, and Zhao Zhiran drove her to the school. Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the gate, they saw an acquaintance.

夏璎

Yao Feiran opened the car door, and Xia Ying walked over.

"Brother Zhiran, when I saw your car, I thought I was seeing things, but it really is you."

Xia Ying's gaze fell on Yao Feiran, her eyes filled with gloom.

What are you doing here?

Xia Ying looked uncomfortable: "My aunt asked me to ask Fei Ran for something."

Zhao Zhirang immediately guessed it was the Demon-Slaying Sword. He said impatiently, "Didn't I tell you not to interfere in this anymore? This sword was passed down to me by my grandfather, and I have the right to dispose of it. I hope this matter ends here, otherwise your father's medical expenses—"

Xia Ying's face turned pale instantly. She hadn't expected Zhao Zhiran to threaten her over this matter.

"Brother Zhiran, you're threatening me with something like this? I was just listening to Auntie, I had no other choice."

Xia Ying's eyes were red and swollen; she left heartbroken.

Yao Feiran got out of the car: "Does your mother know that sword is a Taoist artifact? Why is she so determined to get it back?"

"She doesn't know anything at all," Zhao Zhirang explained. "Grandpa said that this thing was to be passed down to his future grandson, and my mother thought I wanted to marry you."

He rubbed his temples. He was thinking about how to break the curse, but his mother was always holding him back. Even if he told her, she probably wouldn't believe him and would only make things worse. Otherwise, his father had never told his mother.

"Okay, whatever you do, keep an eye on your mom. If she makes a scene in front of me and does something she shouldn't, don't blame me."

Yao Feiran's expression was indifferent. In the original plot, after Xu Yueyin and Zhao Zhiran confirmed their relationship, Zhao Zhiran's attitude towards Xia Ying was always ambiguous. Now his attitude is completely the opposite. It seems that Zhao Zhiran knows that Xu Yueyin likes her and will not leave him, so he is unscrupulous.

"I know, I'm sorry."

Zhao Zhirang quickly apologized.

Yao Feiran returned to her rented room near the school, where Xu Yueyin was also studying. Yao Feiran handed her a magical artifact that she had made.

"You made this yourself; the material is lightning-struck wood." Xu Yueyin's eyes lit up slightly. "You're amazing."

"The main thing is that the materials are good; money makes the world go round."

"I feel like there's a loophole in your body, with spiritual energy constantly gushing out. Are you about to break through again?"

"Yes."

The next breakthrough would be the Earth Rank. Xu Yueyin's hand trembled. Many people could not break through to the Earth Rank even after a lifetime of hard work, after all, the spiritual energy in this world was limited.
