“Do you think that the feng shui formation you set up, is to make your family’s luck gathered on you? Wrong, in fact, you are just a carrier. Your whole family is the sacrifice of that feng shui formation, and the person who set it up is the only one who gets benefits from it.”
Zhang Wu’s face turned pale and said incoherently: “It’s impossible. If so, how did I get rich? This is what I become after moving our ancestral grave.”
Lin Qingyin looked at him with pity: “I just told you that you are the carrier connecting the Feng Shui Formation and the person who set it up. The luck is passing through your body and then from him. But when your whole family’s luck is exhausted, you will be the last sacrifice.”
Zhang Wu’s heart sank. He remembered that when he first met Master Wang, he only asked him to look for a place with good feng shui for future generations. However, Master Wang kept inspiring him to set up formation in a deadly place. He promised that his family will only encounter minor illnesses or disasters. He also said that as long as he has money, those problems will be nothing at all.
In the past few years, as Master Wang said, his family’s health was getting worse and encountered minor disasters. However, after the sudden death of his son last year, he thought that things were not as simple as Master Wang said.
So this year, Zhang Wu, who sensed something was wrong, kept calling Master Wang, hoping that he could do something. However, Master Wang only kept saying that the ancestral grave cannot be move. Otherwise, his whole family would die. In private, he also contacted several masters to look at the feng shui of their ancestral grave. But none of them could see what’s going on, so what more of helping him?
Zhang Wu’s face even became paler. Although from the bottom of his heart, he doesn’t believe it was true, the current situation of their family and Master Wang’s reaction told him that Lin Qingyin was right. He was scammed and he killed his son!
Zhang Wu’s eyes were covered with: “Master Wang, who helped us to look for a place with good feng shui in the beginning, told me that we cannot move our ancestral grave. Otherwise, our whole family will be backlashed and none of them will survive.”
Zhang Jianguo stretched out his arm and slapped Zhang Wu in the face. Zhang Wu didn’t dare to cover his face. He knelt in front of Lin Qingyin and begged: “Master Lin, please help us break this Feng Shui Formation!
Fatty Wang stretched out his hand and helped Zhang Wu up, and cheerfully said: “If you have something to say, say it but don’t do this. Since Master Lin stopped the old man voluntarily that day, it means she will help you. But this and that are different things. Fortune Telling is 1000 yuan and we already collected it. The price of breaking the spell is different.”
“I understand, I understand.” Zhang Wu quickly wiped away his tears and said: “As long as the master breaks this formation, and our family will be safe, I am willing to pay how much is it.”
Lin Qingyin said: “It’s not difficult for me to break this formation, but if you forcefully break your luck, you will definitely suffer some backlash. No need to mention about money, your own life will also be affected.”
Zhang Wu squeezed a bitter smile: “As long as my daughter can get back her health.”
Hearing the words he said, Lin Qingyin tried to comfort him: “Don’t worry, the person who set up this Feng Shui Formation will suffer much more than you.”
Zhang Wu bitterly smiled. How could that person suffer much more than him? His son can’t come back. Zhang Wu regretfully sighed, but his tone sounded much more determined: “Master Lin if the Feng Shui Formation is broken, will I received the backlash immediately?”
Lin Qingyin: “You have two days.”
Zhang Wu nodded his head, as a trace of relief flashed in his eyes: “2 days are enough for me to arrange my family affairs.”
Zhang Jianguo no longer felt sorry for Zhang Wu at this time. Even if Zhang Wu died immediately, he will only say that he deserves it. What he cares about was the little granddaughter lying sick in the hospital. After pushing away his son, Zhang Jianguo couldn’t wait to ask: “Master Lin, are we going to the ancestral grave now?”
Lin Qingyin touched the tortoiseshell and stood up: “We will leave on time at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning. You go and prepare something for me first…”

At 4:30 in the morning, Lin Qingyin got up to cultivate as usual. She didn’t get out of bed until 7:00 in the morning. When she walked out of the room, she found that her mother hadn’t gone to work.
Lin Qingyin walked into the bathroom with a toothbrush. When she came out, she found her mother looking at herself worriedly.
“Mom, are you off today?” Lin Qingyin didn’t move the noodles on the table, but took a packet of biscuits from the coffee table and ate a piece.
Lin Qingyin’s Mother looked at Lin Qingyin tentatively and then asked: “Qingyin, I’ve found a lot of fruit drinks and ice cream in the refrigerator these past 2 days. Did you buy them?”
“No!” Lin Qingyin said naturally: “A friend bought it.”
The worry on Lin Qingyin’s Mother’s face became even more obvious, and she can’t hold her smile anymore: “What kind of friend? When I went out to buy groceries in the morning, I heard our neighbor Aunt Wang say that there were two men coming to our house these past 2 days. Who are they?”
Lin Qingyin glanced at her mother with a puzzled look in the face, but told her the truth: “They came to help me make up for my lessons! That young man is named Jiang Wei, he is the top 1 in the university entrance exam a few years ago. I helped his family a little bit, so he came to teach me voluntarily, and that fat guy came to take lessons with him.”
Lin Qingyin’s Mother remembered that she saw the books on the table in the living room these days, so she released a sigh of relief. A smile appeared on her face the next moment: “I see. But why didn’t you tell me this earlier, and asked those people to buy fruit drinks and snacks? Mother will buy them later for you.”
Seeing that it was late, Lin Qingyin’s Mother hurriedly changed shoes and went out: “Qingyin, I’m going to work first. You study hard at home, I’ll buy you fruits at night.”
Lin Qingyin nodded indifferently. After eating the biscuits, she held the tortoiseshell and went downstairs. Zhang Wu’s SUV was already parked downstairs, waiting for her. At the same time, Lin Qingyin’s Mother, who just arrived at the unit stopped abruptly, and frowned: “She helps his family? How can she help them as a child?”

Yay! A Mom that thinks.
I have noticed that there are quite a few people named Wang in this story… Fatty Wang, evil Wang and now a auntie Wang…
That’s one of the confusing parts of reading CN – lots of similar names and identical surnames. I’m sure in the original Chinese the character for the name is completely different so it’s easy to distinguish them from each other and know who is related, but it’s definitely confusing for English readers 😂
Really enjoying this story, thanks for translating!
The mother is smart. This must be the 1st time in Chinese novel.
I’m so shocked
Those Zhangs got duped hard…Well, at least they can set things right now and get back at that Evil Wang. Though at this right, Mc will most likely attract all sorts of attentioj including malicious ones. As far as I can tell, she doesn’t really have any protections with her nor is she laying low or being careful.
