Chapter 410: This is an Underworld Artifact

~9 min read 1,668 words

"Damn..." Xia Tian's hand trembled, and the Jade in his hand fell to the ground.

"It's useless to throw it away now." Chen Yu shook his head. He picked the Jade up from the ground and said, "This thing is connected to your Life. Xia Tian, someone wants to harm you."

"Someone wants to harm me? Why do you say that?" Xia Tian looked at Chen Yu with some confusion; he did not quite understand what Chen Yu meant.

"Since you've had this thing, have you been dreaming often? And is your body weak, with you becoming pale and covered in cold sweat at the slightest exertion?" Chen Yu asked.

"Yes, I have indeed had this situation in the last few days, but my condition is due to Qi deficiency." Xia Tian asked with some suspicion and uncertainty: "Is there a problem with this?"

"The problem is huge." Chen Yu said: "So-called Underworld Artifacts are burial objects of people who died unnaturally in ancient times. They are formed after being eroded by Yin energy for thousands of years and carry baleful energy. People who wear these things will have weak Yang energy and are easily harassed by evil spirits."

"And look closely, there is a line of small characters here." Chen Yu pointed to an inconspicuous spot on the other side of the Jade: "This line of small characters is extremely tiny and generally cannot be seen. Look again, is that your birth date and time on it?"

"Where? Let me see." Xia Tian hurriedly took the Jade, flipped it over, and looked carefully at the spot Chen Yu pointed to.

Sure enough, at the very bottom, there was a line of extremely small characters. These traces were very small and could not be seen clearly at all. Xia Tian turned on the room lights, then took out a special magnifying glass to look at it carefully.

As he looked, his expression changed drastically. Sure enough, as Chen Yu said, the characters on it were his birth date and time.

"Chen Yu, what exactly is going on? Is someone really trying to harm me?" Xia Tian's expression was gloomy.

"It's highly likely. With your birth date and time carved on an Underworld Artifact, and then having this thing sent to you, your Life will be eroded by the Yin energy on the Underworld Artifact."

Chen Yu said: "It might not be anything at the beginning, but after a long time, the Yin energy will erode your body, and all kinds of problems will emerge. In serious cases, it is highly likely you will die suddenly."

"What should we do?" Huang Yiqiang said with shock: "Xia Tian, who did you offend? Whoever understands this stuff is truly vicious."

"I have always been kind to others, who could I have offended?" Xia Tian furrowed his brows: "Even if I offended someone, it shouldn't be to the point of trying to kill me, right?"

"Since they know your birth date and time, and know it so clearly, then this person must be someone close to you." Chen Yu reminded him from the side.

"Someone close?" Xia Tian was shocked. He looked up at Chen Yu, seemingly understanding what Chen Yu meant.

"That's right, think about it carefully. Not many people know your birth date and time." Chen Yu said indifferently.

"My grandfather knows, but he definitely wouldn't harm me. The other person who knows... is my uncle who has always coveted the family power." Xia Tian said coldly: "Could it be..."

"Xia Tian... is that brat Xia Guoqiang trying to harm you?" Huang Yiqiang was furious: "I knew that grandson wasn't a good person. I'll contact people immediately to kill him."

"Qiang Ge, don't be hasty." Xia Tian calmed down: "Chen Yu, is there a way to break this?"

"Bring a bottle of vodka." Chen Yu turned his head and called for a bottle of liquor.

A bottle of high-proof vodka was brought up. Chen Yu poured a full glass of liquor, then dissolved a piece of Talisman Paper into the liquor, and then dropped the Blood Jade into it.

With a hiss, a burst of white smoke emerged. The Blood Jade rolled violently as if it had been thrown into strong acid.

A moment later, the Jade Clothing was peeled off layer by layer. In the end, the Jade was left as only a peanut-sized piece that looked like a weathered stone.

After this Jade weathered, Xia Tian felt his body suddenly relax. His mood also expanded in this instant, as if a heavy stone in his heart had landed.

"How do you feel?" Chen Yu asked.

"I'm better." Xia Tian let out a breath and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Xia Tian, this matter cannot just end like this. Your uncle is trying to seize power." Huang Yiqiang said coldly: "You must be prepared."

"Must it come to this step?" Xia Tian gritted his teeth and said: "Family members killing each other, must we fight until one of us is dead?"

"Xia Tian, this is unavoidable." Chen Yu also sighed and said: "Whether you are willing or not, you have to face these things."

"After all, the Xia Clan's family business is vast. Your father is gone, and originally your uncle should have been the heir, but your grandfather doted on you and gave the family business to you. He definitely has ideas." Chen Yu said: "It is unavoidable."

"Xia Tian, you must not be soft-hearted. There were also suspicious circumstances regarding the death of your parents back then." Huang Yiqiang shouted.

Xia Tian's face was livid, and he did not say a word.

"In any case, be careful from now on. Keep this Amulet with you." Chen Yu took out a Brocade Pouch and handed it to Xia Tian: "Firstly, it can save your life, and secondly, these messy curses won't be able to be cast upon you."

"Chen Yu, thank you so much." Xia Tian nodded and took the Amulet from Chen Yu's hand.

"We are brothers, why be so polite?" Chen Yu smiled slightly: "But you must be careful recently. Find a few experts. Since they have used Descending Head, they will definitely use other methods. You must be careful yourself."

"Okay, I know. Thank you." Xia Tian's expression was grave.

"Where is the waiter? Bring liquor, and call over the prettiest ones in your club. I won't go home until I'm drunk today." Xia Tian felt stifled and planned to vent properly.

A female waiter with a good figure hurriedly pushed a cart of liquor over. She took a bottle opener to open the liquor. After opening it, she held a bottle of liquor and poured it for Xia Tian.

Suddenly, her hand flipped, and the bottle opener in her hand had turned into a pale blue Dagger. The Dagger in her hand twirled, aiming straight for Xia Tian's vital points.

"Watch out." Chen Yu shouted, grabbed Xia Tian, and pulled him violently backward, dragging Xia Tian onto the sofa.

Because the female waiter was too close to Xia Tian, the clothes on Xia Tian's chest made a hissing sound and were slashed with an extremely long cut.

Xia Tian rolled up. He touched his chest, and the cold sweat on his forehead instantly poured down. If Chen Yu had been one second later, he feared he would have been disemboweled.

"Damn it, you're looking for death." Huang Yiqiang was furious. He flipped the table and smashed it violently at the female waiter.

But the female waiter's figure was incomparably agile. She flipped both hands, and two Daggers slashed toward the table.

With a crash, the table was split in half by her. Her figure lowered, and she attacked Xia Tian with extreme speed.

This woman's offensive was too fierce. Chen Yu stepped forward and threw a punch at the assassin.

Bang... This punch from Chen Yu caused the female assassin to spray a mouthful of fresh blood. She then fell backward. She rolled up and was about to counterattack, but Chen Yu knocked her unconscious with one punch.

"Are you okay?" Xia Tian then stepped forward, still shaken.

"I'm fine. Are you hurt?" Chen Yu glanced at the female assassin: "Her level is average. She probably saw she was close to you and became impatient for success."

"I'm fine too." Xia Tian gritted his teeth and said: "Xia Guoqiang, he has already started the war."

"Xia Tian, I will go contact people immediately. Xia Guoqiang is too blatant. He is bullying you because you have no one to rely on and wants to seize power. You must not be soft-hearted."

"If I am soft-hearted, the one who dies will be me. Chen Yu, I will remember this life-saving grace. This is my own business, and I will solve it myself. You and Qiang Ge don't need to intervene, so as not to implicate you." Xia Tian said gratefully to Chen Yu.

"Don't talk about being implicated or not at a time like this. I don't know Xia Guoqiang, but looking at his methods, he is also a ruthless character." Chen Yu said in a deep voice: "You must be very careful yourself."

After this incident, Xia Tian was in no mood to stay here. He was not someone who would sit and wait for death. Xia Guoqiang had always viewed him as a thorn in his side. Since Xia Guoqiang had torn off the mask this time, he would not be polite either.

After Xia Tian returned, Chen Yu also went out. When he pressed the car key button, a burst of car lights lit up behind him, and then the headlights of several cars lit up behind him. Five cars in front and back surrounded Chen Yu's path tightly.

No need to ask, this was aimed at him. Chen Yu locked the car door, crossed his arms, leaned against the car body, and stared at the cars in front of him.
