Chapter 40: She is not an Ordinary Girl
Xing could realise the atmosphere in the room was not fine and wanted to leave as soon as possible as she was never used to such situations where she did not know what was going on or how to act.
" Do you know what day is today?", AoTian’s cold voice made Xing snap out of her thoughts.
Xing tried to remember but she could not find that day to be any special.
Geez! Can’t you just tell me, father? Xing thought.
AoTian saw Xing’s reaction and his face filled with disappointment and he just let out a sigh which confused Xing more. Lord Zhong who was drinking tea enthusiastically said,
"Hey, brat! Did you know that Elder Shu and two of his grandsons died last night?"
"Oh", Xing said nonchalantly as if she’d expected that.
"That was sudden, even though that Elder was old those boys were just young and the entire Shu family is in deep mourning", Lord Zhong continued.
" He brought that on himself and he dragged his family too", Xing said in a calm tone.
"Brat! What do you mean?", Lord Zhong asked surprised and AoTian was shocked too as he remembered her talking weirdly to that Elder last night.
" I don’t know if you believe it or not but that Elder had used a spell to hide from the God of Death and the spell was broken last night. Of course that God would be angry and he will make the entire family pay. Those two grandsons won’t be the last", Xing said as a matter of fact shocking everyone.
Spell? God of death? So was it her that broke the spell last night? How? So what the Elder said about his daughter knowing Gods is true? AoTian wondered.
