Chapter 35: There’s Something Wrong With This Woman!
“In another hour, my son’s condition will flare up. As long as someone can resolve the issue, I will immediately offer 100 million yen.”
“The Aoi Group will even provide financial and material support to help the master build a temple, covering all expenses entirely.”
Tsk, this guy is really willing to spend.
Lu Jin clicked his tongue but remained calm.
After all, one Yakushi Temple was enough for him.
Such a large Yakushi Temple—I wouldn’t even be able to develop it fully in decades. How would I have the time to manage another temple?
Being a monk isn’t about having more temples.
More temples just mean more expenses.
With the economy in such a slump, what difference would another temple make? It would just be an extra burden.
The reason monks earn high incomes is because of the heritage passed down through generations.
Compared to that, he was more interested in the illness affecting Aoi Takumi.
As time passed, Aoi Takumi, who had been struggling on the bed for a long time, was already exhausted. Suddenly, his eyes widened in pain.
His body curled up like a boiled shrimp.
Then, as if dehydrated, a large amount of sweat soaked the cloth strips wrapped around him, drenching the entire bed.
“Hmm?”
Lu Jin’s eyes showed surprise.
The ordinary radiance surrounding Aoi Takumi suddenly changed in his vision.
At the same time, an eerie, chilling resentment began to surface from Aoi Takumi’s body.
As the resentment gathered, Aoi Takumi let out a painful scream.
His skin became smooth, and his hair started to grow.
His once rugged features began to change.
In the blink of an eye, a delicate and seductive woman’s face appeared before everyone.
Hiss!
A gasp came from the crowd.
This shocking transformation was far more impactful than any words could describe.
“Mr. Aoi, I can’t handle this matter. Farewell!”
A monk in robes turned and left without hesitation.
He had only come after hearing rumors, hoping to try his luck.
Originally, he thought it was just hearsay, but he hadn’t expected such a bizarre condition to be real.
No, this wasn’t an illness.
It was clearly a case of possession by an evil spirit!
He was just an ordinary monk who chanted scriptures and performed rituals. How could he possibly deal with such a thing?
Seeing someone leave, Aoi Kai did not stop him.
What he needed was a capable exorcist, not some opportunist looking to take advantage of the situation.
Gradually, the crowd dispersed.
The once-crowded room now had only a few scattered individuals remaining.
“Old man, do you think tying me up will solve everything?”
The transformed Aoi Takumi spoke in a sinister and venomous tone.
As he spoke, his body struggled violently, his bones making sharp cracking sounds.
Like someone who felt no pain, he twisted his body into terrifying positions. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, yet he smiled radiantly.
“Give her a shot!”
Aoi Kai’s face darkened.
Immediately, two women dressed as nurses pushed a cart into the room and injected a sedative into Aoi Takumi’s body.
The frenzied Takumi immediately fell silent.
“Masters, do you have any way to exorcise this spirit?”
Aoi Kai turned his gaze to the remaining exorcists in the room.
“Exorcising the spirit isn’t difficult, but if you want to remove it without harming Young Master Takumi…”
A middle-aged man dressed as a priest frowned.
Right now, this evil spirit and Aoi Takumi were sharing the same body.
No matter what method they used to exorcise it, Aoi Takumi would inevitably be harmed.
In fact, if the evil spirit died, Aoi Takumi would die as well.
The only way to solve this was to separate their souls.
He could do it, but it would require a ritual.
Preparing the ritual would take at least a day.
“In that case, please stay here for the night, masters.”
Upon hearing this, Aoi Kai immediately ordered his servants to prepare rooms.
As long as the evil spirit could be removed from Aoi Takumi, he was willing to wait even a month.
Even though the priest was confident in exorcising the spirit, Aoi Kai didn’t hastily dismiss the other exorcists.
After all, if something went wrong, they might still need a backup plan.
…
In a quiet corridor, Lu Jin followed a servant toward his room.
Looking at the extravagantly decorated surroundings, he couldn’t help but curse internally.
What a filthy rich family.
Even someone like him, who didn’t understand interior design, could tell that this level of luxury was ridiculously expensive.
Just this decoration alone was worth ten years of Yakushi Temple’s income.
As he was thinking about this, his gaze suddenly fell upon a woman in a burgundy dress walking toward him.
She appeared to be around thirty, with silky smooth purple hair casually draped over her shoulders.
Her burgundy evening gown had a lace-trimmed neckline that plunged deep, revealing an astonishing cleavage adorned with a red gemstone necklace.
The form-fitting gown hugged her curves, exposing her fair, slender arms.
Her full chest and curvy hips filled out the dress, accentuating a flawless silhouette.
She wore red high heels, exuding the aura of a mature, intelligent, and voluptuous woman.
Mature, intelligent, voluptuous!
As their eyes met, the woman’s eyes lit up.
She had never seen such a handsome man before.
But Lu Jin frowned.
Something’s off!
What do you think?
