Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser - Chapter 147
Chapter 147: Switching Faces
Gao Lingxue wasn’t happy or excited for too long. Looking at the mere three strands of hair in her hand which cost 100,000 yuan each, a trace of regret flashed across her face. If she had known that Chi Shuyan’s hair was so useful, she would have plucked a few more.
The more Gao Lingxue thought about it, the more regret she felt. She recalled how she failed to threaten Chi Shuyan yesterday and had been about to go back dejectedly; she hadn’t expected that someone would ask her to get Chi Shuyan’s hair at 100,000 a strand.
She had hesitated a little, afraid that it was a scam, but then quickly agreed. After all, her family was already so poor that they were about to go hungry. They had also fallen out with her Fourth Uncle’s family, and couldn’t demand any benefits from them.
As for what this person wanted with Chi Shuyan’s hair, she didn’t care at all. She was so jealous of her cousin that her eyes turned red. Why were their lives so different? In addition, her cousin was the cause of her family’s recent downfall, so she took it for granted that Chi Shuyan owed her everything. Anyway, it was just a few strands of hair.
…
“Master, since we now have her birth characters and hair, we should be able to do the ritual, right?” Feng Yanli looked respectfully at the black-robed Warlock beside her.
The black-robed Warlock was completely covered except for his turbid, sharp eyes, and he nodded. “Of course, but we still need to wait a little longer. After all, the pictures weren’t clear, and I still need to see her in person to confirm the pattern of her fate.”
When Feng Yanli heard the black-robed Warlock’s words, she felt a trace of excitement and her emotions ran a little wild. “Then, if Master confirms that her fate is good, do you have a way to switch our faces?”
“Switch faces? Haha, you just have to borrow her luck; there’s no need to switch faces.” The black-robed Warlock glanced at Feng Yanli, whose skin had turned fair and smooth. Although Feng Yanli’s current appearance could only be considered delicate and pretty, not beautiful, it was still a world of difference from her former ugly and ordinary appearance.
“I can’t wait anymore! I want to switch faces immediately! Right away!” Feng Yanli was so excited that her voice was a bit shrill.
Hearing Feng Yanli’s hysterical voice, the black-robed Warlock didn’t say a word, but his cloudy eyes were somewhat displeased.
Father Feng frowned. Noticing the black-robed Warlock’s displeasure, he hurriedly reprimanded Feng Yanli. “Yanli, how can you speak to Master like that?!” He turned his head and apologized to the black-robed Warlock in trepidation. “Master, I hope you don’t mind my daughter’s lack of manners. I’ve almost prepared everything that you need.”
Only then did the black-robed Warlock nod and wave his long sleeves. “You guys go out!”
Feng Yanli still wanted to ask him some things, but Father Feng pulled at her sleeve and dragged her out. When they were outside, Father Feng pulled a long face. “What’s wrong with you? I told you before to be prudent – where did that all go? We still have to rely on this Master in the future. If we offend him, where can we find another one?”
“Dad, I don’t want this either. That person only knows how to borrow your money and influence to cultivate, and we’ve waited so long in vain.” Feng Yanli glanced inside before she complained quietly and indignantly in Father Feng’s ear. “It was the same with borrowing luck back then. That person randomly picked a person for us to borrow luck from. But look: although your business is doing better now, it’s not yet to the point of being considered a tycoon since you still haven’t squeezed into Fuzhou’s upper crust. My face is much better, but it still can’t be considered beautiful.”
