Chapter 97 - The Soul-snatcher Sect and Gu Curse (1/2)

“Gu Curse?” Ling Huang’s expression changed drastically. Being a billionaire meant that he knew more things that common folks didn’t know, and that definitely included eerie things that such curses were able to do.

The southwest part of Huaxia also happened to be the place where such curses were most known to be used.

Hearing Lu Xuan said that, he immediately knew that Ling Fei had definitely gotten caught up with some dirty stuff when she was on her trip in Southern Yunnan.

“No doubt about it. Your daughter was hit with a Gu Curse for sure.” Lu Xuan nodded and continued, “That’s why, regardless of the number of tests she received in the hospital, nothing was found; it’s because nothing is wrong with her body itself.”

Lu Xuan walked up to Ling Fei and checked her pulse on her wrist. He immediately knew the number of problems she had been hit with.

“Please, Mr. Lu, tell me. What kind of Gu Curse is this?” Ling Huang’s face was instantly ashen after knowing that his daughter had been hit with such a curse.

Despite being very angry, he knew that he was but one of the common people, which meant that there was nothing he could do about this.

Lu Xuan calmly continued, “This particular Gu Curse is known as the Soul-snatcher Gu Curse. Someone has hijacked ling Fei’s body. Once the curse makes itself at home with its host, the curse will first absorb ambient Spiritual Qi using the host body, so as to nourish the host.

“When the curse matures, it will then proceed to devour the host to feed itself. It’s a kind of very eerie and very nasty Gu Curse,” Lu Xuan elaborated.

“How could this be? Those two were telling the truth then?” Ling Huang muttered to himself.

“What do you mean by ‘those two were telling the truth’?” Lu Xuan heard him and asked.

“Well, here is how it is…” Ling Huang then proceeded to elaborate to Lu Xuan what had happened the day before.

When Ling Huang was at his wit’s end in regards to Ling Fei’s case, two people paid him a visit, asking for her hand in marriage, claiming that they were able to solve Ling Huang’s predicament.

Ling Huang chased those two people, whom he perceived to be lunatics, out of his premises right away.

Now that he came to think of it, those two people looked and sounded very fishy, no matter how he thought about it.

For instance, there had been no way for them to know what Ling Huang had run into, which meant that there was no way for them to guarantee such results.

However, he overlooked that point due to him having been so frustrated and worried.

Ling Huang had been doing business all over the world. His children were the only thing his late wife left behind, which also proved to be his weakness. He was quickly flustered when the problem had to do with his children.

“Seems like you’ve chased the ones responsible away, then,” Lu Xuan smirked and added.

Ling Huang felt exasperated and flustered when he saw Lu Xuan smirk, adding in a frustrating manner, “Mr. Lu, please, do you have to joke at a moment like this? Or do you actually have a way to solve this?”

Lu Xuan nodded and answered, “Of course I do. The Soul-snatcher Gu Curse is hardly considered trouble. This would be quite a disaster for her if you didn’t know me. But now that I’m here, this will be quite an opportunity for her.”
