The Terror of the Heavens Begins with Gu

Chapter 305 Master Nat's Arrival and Nami's Murder

The plot of "Blood Rebirth" was extremely melodramatic, and Li Zhen remembered it very clearly.

The protagonist, Ah Wei, and his friend fled to Southeast Asia after being chased by gangsters. They unexpectedly met a sorcerer named Chai Wang and managed to persuade him to take them in.

The glib-tongued protagonist is very talented in black magic. He seduces Chaiwang's sister and gets Chaiwang to take him as a disciple and teach him black magic.

The protagonist is wicked and once tried to steal the secret techniques that Chaiwang had hidden in the altar, including the "Blood Embryo Transformation" technique. He was caught by Chaiwang and almost killed, but was saved by Chaiwang's sister at the critical moment.

Instead of restraining himself, his ambition grew even greater. After killing a political figure whom Chaiwang was unwilling to kill, he was discovered by Chaiwang.

Unable to defeat Chaiwang, he used a prepared magical weapon to pierce both Chaiwang and his sister simultaneously while Chaiwang's sister pleaded for mercy, severely injuring Chaiwang.

In a panic, the protagonist set fire to Chaiwang's altar, leaving his equally seriously injured sister in the fire, and fled with the "Blood Rebirth" secret technique, returning to Hong Kong Island.

The latter half of the story is about Chaiwang's sister cultivating "Blood Rebirth" and transforming herself into a blood demon beyond the three realms, seeking revenge on the protagonist.

Lee Chan was deeply impressed by the vampire that Chaiwang's sister had transformed into.

The blood demon was said to be outside the Three Realms and could transcend life and death, but its performance was not very impressive; it was even afraid of the Buddha statue that the protagonist carried with him.

If it weren't for the fact that the protagonist's friend fell in love with her and was willing to help her take revenge, she wouldn't have been able to get her revenge at all.

Li Zhen's interest in it lies in the fact that the blood demon created through the practice of "blood embryo transformation" is said to be outside the Three Realms.

Apart from this place, Li Zhen had never seen a ghost claim to be outside the Three Realms.

Only immortals can "transcend the Three Realms and be outside the Five Elements".

But a vampire claims to be "not within the Three Realms," how could Li Zhen not be curious?
This method was of great reference value to him, who aspired to become an immortal.

It is rare, even if it is an evil method, to be able to directly let him know what a method "not within the Three Realms" is.

All he has to do now is wait for that person to make a move against Naimi.

Li Zhen took out the dried piece of meat that he had simply sealed away.

The whole room became gloomy.

The demon fetus, emitting a strange cry, darted out from behind the banshee and ran madly toward the lump of flesh, only to be caught by Li Zhen.

A red-eyed bat also flew out and hung on Li Zhen's shoulder, its eyes fixed intently on the piece of flesh.

While observing the red-eyed bat's condition, Li Zhen tore off a piece of meat from the chunk and began to study it.

The meat was completely dried out; when torn off, it resembled some kind of dried wood and emitted a peculiar rotten smell.

However, Li Zhen felt that the aura emanating from this thing was somewhat familiar to him.

After sniffing the shredded dried meat in his hand, Li Zhen finally remembered why it felt somewhat familiar.

Although the piece of flesh reeked of decay, when he held it in his hand, he felt that it was somewhat similar to the unusual corpse he had seen at the foot of Yandang Mountain, left behind by the person who had apparently failed in his autopsy.

The two are completely different.

One was made of jade and felt smooth to the touch, while the other was dry and looked much like dried meat, yet Li Zhen felt a strange sense of similarity between them.

This made Li Zhen even more interested.

He took a talisman from the banshee's back and sealed the dried flesh in his hand into the talisman...

Just as Li Zhen was busy studying the physical body of the underworld administrator, as well as the changes that occurred in the red-eyed bat and the ghost fetus, the master invited by Nai Mi finally arrived at the hotel.

The monk's short hair had turned white, and he looked to be around sixty years old. He was beardless, wore a yellow robe, and had a serious expression.

Nai Mi knew the seriousness of the matter and did not hide anything. When leading the monk into the hotel, he briefly told the monk everything when Li Zhen met him.

The monk simply nodded.

When they arrived at Naimi's room, the monk suddenly turned his head and frowned as he looked at the room where Li Zhen was staying.

Nami whispered, "That's where that monk lives."

The monk nodded and followed Naimi into the house.

After the monk sat down, Nai Mi asked, "Master Nat, what should I do now?"

Master Nat looked at Nami's face and pondered, "From what you've said, that... master doesn't seem to want to harm you. Instead, it seems like he's here to save you. But there is indeed a very strong evil aura over there. This aura is extremely terrifying. I've lived for so many years and I've never seen such a terrifying aura before."

“Then Master, you…” Naimi was not surprised by this.

Judging from his appearance, Li Zhen, who barged into his room, didn't seem like a respectable person at all.

He just wanted to know if this highly accomplished Buddhist master, Nat, was capable of fighting against Li Zhen.

He only feels safe if he has one.

A person like him would naturally not put his life in danger for others.

Master Nat knew what he meant.

He shook his head and said, "The opponent's aura is extremely terrifying. I'm afraid I'm no match for him, but I brought a magical artifact with me, so he won't be able to hurt you."

"That's not the most important thing right now. It's about you. I need to determine if you've been afflicted by an evil spell."

"This person is so terrifying, the evil magic he mentioned may be extraordinary."

"Thank you so much, Master!" Naimi said gratefully.

He understood Master Nat's unspoken meaning.

This was not only to confirm that he was not under someone else's spell, but also to test whether he was under Li Zhen's spell.

Previously, Li Zhen had said that he had left a way to prevent him from being killed, which made him uneasy.

“Have someone fetch a cup of clean water in a silver cup,” Master Nat said.

Naimi immediately had someone fetch a glass of water.

Master Nat placed the glass of water on the table beside him, clasped his hands together, recited some scriptures, and then wiped the glass a few times with his right hand.

Amidst the more intense chanting of scriptures, he dipped his hand in water and sprinkled it on Naimi's face, his eyes glaring as he intently watched the changes in Naimi's expression.

Naimi felt a little nervous under their gaze.

After Master Nat withdrew his hand, he hurriedly asked, "Master, have I been cursed by someone else?"

Master Nat said, "I haven't found any signs of being tainted by evil magic on you yet, but your sallow complexion is indeed a sign of impending misfortune. What that person said should be true."

Hearing the first part of what was said, Naimi breathed a sigh of relief.

After listening to the second half, he became a little nervous again.

"So what should I do now?" he asked.

After a moment's thought, Master Nat said, "Let's not bother him. If he comes out, I'll go and meet him for a talk. It's been a long time since I've had any interaction with such a powerful person."

Nami whispered, "Master said he practices... evil arts?" Master Nat said dismissively, "Good and evil are just terms. As long as you can stick to your principles and not harm others, even if you practice evil arts, you may still achieve great things, just like those sorcerers."

He looked Naimi over for a while longer: "As for you, I will cast a spell on you tonight to protect you from evil magic. It may be of some use to you."

Naimi quickly thanked him and then asked, "What do you need me to prepare, Master? I will have someone prepare it immediately."

“Something needs to be prepared,” Master Nat said. “You send someone to my temple to see my disciples and tell them that I need to cast a spell on you to protect you from evil magic. They know what needs to be prepared.”

Naimi nodded: "Then it will take up a day or two of Master's time. During this time, I hope Master will stay by my side. I have already prepared a room for Master."

"After this is all over, I will give the master a generous gift."

“It’s nothing. You do so many good deeds, so it’s only right that I help you.” Nat stood up, about to continue speaking, when he suddenly turned and looked at the corner of the room.

The demonic fetus, half embedded in the wall and half exposed, grinned at Master Nat, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth.

Master Nat's pupils contracted, but he did not react in any way.

The demonic fetus, bored, disappeared into the wall.

"What's wrong, Master?" Naimi, who had noticed something was amiss, also glanced over there, but saw nothing.

Master Nat shook his head and said, "There's a strange little brat there, probably the one who stayed here... to protect you."

Upon hearing that a little devil was watching her, Nai Mi's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately recalled whether she had offended Li Zhen with what she had just said.

After confirming that he hadn't said anything too offensive, he wiped away his cold sweat and asked stiffly, "That brat... is he still here?"

Master Nat shook his head: "They're gone."

"I was wondering earlier what method that person used to prevent you from being harmed by evil magic. Now it seems that it was using this strange little devil to protect you."

Naimi said gratefully, "That master was very thoughtful."

After all the necessary items were brought, Master Nat performed a spell in the room. After casting the spell on Nami, he handed Nami a wooden Buddha carving and told her to carry it with her and not to take it off.

With Master Nat's protection, Nami slept soundly through the night.

The next morning, Naimi first met with Master Nat, and then personally went to see Li Zhen and brought him breakfast.

After leaving Li Zhen's room, Nai Mi shuddered.

Li Zhen's room was gloomy, making him feel very uncomfortable.

Naimi felt at ease after touching the small wooden Buddha on her wrist.

Just then, his secretary ran out of the room to remind him that a phone call had come in.

Naimi returned to her room and picked up the microphone that was on the table.

A deep male voice immediately came from the other end: "Mr. Naimi, what's your decision?"

Naimi frowned and said, "I think it's better to keep things as they are."

The man over there laughed heartily: "That piece of land is just a wasteland. It's a waste to leave it there. We might as well make good use of it. If you give me the land, I can build a high-end golf course there tomorrow."

After a pause, the other party continued, "This is making use of waste. Of course, Mr. Naimi will receive no less benefit; this is my promise."

Naimi said, "That's land designated for forestry and agricultural reform."

The other party replied, "Finding a suitable person to measure the data and tampering with the land deed is not a difficult task."

Naimi refused, saying, "I think it's best to leave that land as it is."

"That's a real shame..."

The other party wanted to say something more, but Naimi hung up the phone.

Naimi slowly placed the phone back on the landline and fell into deep thought.

Before Li Zhen reminded him, although he knew he had conflicts with many people, he always thought those people wouldn't dare to risk killing him, after all, he had quite a reputation.

If we kill him, the uproar will be huge, and those people may not be willing to pay the price.

However, after meeting Li Zhen and Master Nat, Nami felt that anyone who had a conflict with her might harm her.

The Chatchai family is a large and wealthy family in the area, with connections to many important people.

The reason they're approaching him now is ostensibly to ask if he's willing to cooperate with the other party and transfer a piece of land to them for development. In reality, they're testing his willingness to work with them and to collude with them.

Although the other party was being very open about it, he really had no choice but to refuse their request.

He originally thought that the other party would at most isolate him in the political arena and cause him trouble, but now he is thinking about more.

Did the other party have some ulterior motive and decide to have him killed?

Or perhaps it's not the Chatchai family, but someone else behind the scenes trying to get rid of him?

This is really a headache...

Today's schedule cannot be changed.

After thinking it over, Naimi decided to postpone her trip by half an hour to avoid letting others know her exact itinerary.

After calling her secretary and instructing her to communicate with the guests at an appropriate time, Naimi rested in her room until 9:30 before leaving to meet the guests.

The meeting didn't end until after noon.

In the afternoon, he attended an opening ceremony and met with local voters.

As his car passed through the crowd of voters, enthusiastic voters surrounded him.

Naimi opened the car window and greeted the many citizens with a smile.

His bodyguards followed on both sides of the car, blocking the enthusiastic crowd to prevent anyone with ill intentions from approaching Naimi.

A man holding a garland enthusiastically squeezed next to a young bodyguard, picked up the garland and gestured to the bodyguard, indicating that he wanted to present the garland to Mr. Naimi.

The bodyguard originally wanted to stop the man, but the man was too enthusiastic and kept pushing forward. There were too many people around, and if his method of stopping him was too rough, it might affect Naimi's reputation.

After hesitating for a moment, noticing that the man didn't have anything extra on him, she let him walk to Naimi's car.

The man excitedly placed the flower wreath around Naimi's neck.

A cheer erupted from the crowd.

Naimi was adjusting the flower wreath around her neck with a smile on her face when she suddenly felt a pain on the back of her hand.

Looking at the back of his hand, he found that a caterpillar-like insect had crawled on it and bitten him.

This insect must have fallen from the wreath.

Naimi crushed the insect, looked up, and realized that the man who had presented her with the flower wreath was nowhere to be found...
