Chapter 359 She Did It on Purpose
Jodie was struck in the face by a robe, and it was at that moment that she realized her current predicament. Feigning obedience, she nodded. “Alright, I’ll do as you say.”
Weakly, she reached out and put on the robe.
After seeing her put on the clothes, the man grabbed her hand and cut her finger with his vital energy before drawing a talisman with her blood.
Not only was Jodie’s arm in pain from being grabbed, but her finger also throbbed. In her heart, she silently cursed, This person really lacks gentlemanly manners, treating a beautiful woman like me so rudely.
However, she also knew that only he could help her now.
When the man finished drawing the talisman, he recited a spell and affixed it to her body. He formed hand seals and followed her blood to the oil lamp, sensing the oil lamp that belonged to her. Using his curse, he shouted, “Extinguish!”
That was his attempt to extinguish the oil lamp with his vital energy. With that, he could break the opponent’s spell.
At the hospital, Simone had been keeping an eye on the oil lamps and sensed a strange energy affecting Jodie’s oil lamp. Just as the other person was about to extinguish it, she immediately mobilized her vital energy to suppress it and even said, “Get lost!”
She was doing this on purpose.
At the same time, the man suddenly heard a powerful voice booming in his head, saying, “Get lost!” He felt a sweet sensation in his chest and couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood. His face grew even grimmer. “D*mn it!” The person on the other side is a master, and the voice sounds like Simone’s.
His face darkened, and he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his fingertips, then drew another talisman. He affixed it to Jodie again and shouted, “Explode!”
The talisman suddenly caught fire and startled Jodie, who jumped in shock. Then, she saw the man looking at her with a sinister gaze. Fear rushed through her heart, and she immediately sat back down.
The man took out a dagger from his pocket, surrounded by a strong aura of death. Using his entire body’s vital energy, he continuously formed hand seals, recited incantations, and used the negative energy from the dagger to attack.
On the other side, Simone noticed the opponent’s attack. She took out the seal containing

negative energy and immediately utilized the negative energy on it. Not only did she disperse the opponent’s aura, but she also counterattacked.
Even though the man’s cultivation level was slightly higher than Simone’s, his actual strength was inferior to hers, so he was counterattacked. He felt his whole body burning with negative energy and couldn’t help but spit out another mouthful of blood. His face became even paler, and the burning pain in his chest intensified.
He couldn’t believe his eyes. “How is this possible?” He had already suspected that Simone was the one who cast the spell from the other end and believed that he was much stronger than Simone. Not only could he protect Jodie from the backlash curse, but he could also attack and severely injure Simone.
Who would have thought that he would be severely injured by the backlash? This was beyond his comprehension. Earlier in the city, he had deliberately walked past Simone, assessing her cultivation, and felt that he was stronger!
Right at this moment. Bailey ceased forming seals and used his index finger to draw circles. back and forth on the two paper dolls. After drawing seventy-six circles, his gaze was intense.
“Break!”
Steven and the others witnessed the two paper dolls spontaneously catching fire. Simultaneously, Simone pointed her finger at the two oil lamps and said, “Switch!”
They observed that the talismans attached to the oil lamps also caught fire. The two oil lamps, which had been flickering with two clusters of flames, suddenly emitted a strange green light that soared high in an instant. They weren’t sure if it was their imagination, but they thought they saw the silhouettes of Jodie and Andrew within the flames.
Then, the two clusters of flames that soared into the sky merged voluntarily, and the cluster representing Andrew began to consume the cluster representing Jodie.
On the other side, Jodie had witnessed the man spitting blood twice in a row, and his face had become incredibly pale. Startled, she had a foreboding feeling. Did this guy fail? Is he so useless? Just as she pondered this, her expression suddenly changed, and she fell to the ground, trembling uncontrollably. She felt the fortune in her body forcibly tearing apart and rushing outward.
Fear consumed her. “No, please!”
If she lost this fortune, what would become of her? She didn’t dare to think about it.
“Ah, it hurts!”
Soon, she couldn’t think of anything else because she felt as though her entire body was being ripped apart, writhing in pain on the ground.
2/3
Witnessing this, the man’s face changed once again. “It’s over!”
This was the reaction when the spell was broken There was no way to stop it.
His initial thought was that Simone had become incredibly powerful. If it were him breaking this spell, he could barely manage it, but it would cost him most of his energy and take a long time. If someone interrupted or disturbed him, he was highly likely to fail. Even if he didn’t fail, he would still take a long time to maintain and continue breaking the spell.
But how much time did Simone spend? It was too short. Then, a sense of dread washed over him. Oh no, this spell was cast by Master. He couldn’t stop it and even allowed the other party to break the curse successfully, which would result in a backlash against his master.
At this moment, in a high-rise courtyard where a senior member of the geomancy association resided, a man who was meditating suddenly expelled a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale.
The man’s expression changed. “Who broke my curse?”
Then, he was backlashed by the curse, and his once youthful and vibrant face began to change; his skin became dull, and wrinkles appeared on his forehead and at the corners of his eyes. His black hair also gradually turned white. In an instant, the entire person aged several decades.
The man’s face twisted in anger. “Get lost! I won’t not spare you!”
The youthful appearance that he had worked so hard to maintain regressed due to this major backlash, and this made him frustrated and angry.
He lit a talisman and shouted at the man guarding Jodie, “Come here!”
The man in the room, upon hearing the furious voice of his master, turned even paler in fear and ignored Jodie, who was still rolling on the ground, her appearance aging another twenty or thirty years due to the backlash as her aura weakened.
He clutched his chest, enduring the excruciating pain, and swiftly opened the door before stepping outside.
