Chapter 62
A String of Lies

The eight-foot tall woman grabbed the Rift Woman’s arm, and no matter how the Rift Woman hit or scratched her, the eight-foot woman didn’t even break a sweat.

The Rift Woman was swung like a weapon, and soon all the corpses were motionless, while one of the Rift Woman’s arms had fallen off. The malice on her face grew even stronger, but one could still see a hint of terror in her eyes.

Escape!

The Rift Woman’s figure was shrouded in black mist, but when the mist cleared, she was still in the same place. She couldn’t get out? It was the woman outside! This was a trap! Damn it, damn it, damn it!!!

The countless eyes reappeared from all directions. This time, the eyes began to ooze blood, and some even shattered.

She forcefully activated the power of the curse. This power was not yet mature. Once used, everything would have to start from scratch. But if she didn't use it, she would die here today.

As the curse crawled towards the eight-foot tall woman like a shadow, the eight-foot tall woman let the curse climb and spread all over her body. Wounds began to appear on her body, but they healed in an instant. The heart in the eight-foot tall woman's body suddenly began to beat violently, but quickly returned to normal.

The curse can’t kill her… this monstrous woman! Then attack the man!

The curse on the eight-foot tall woman’s body retreated, and she quickly rushed towards Lin Ze. The Rift Woman saw the eight-foot tall woman reach out to grab the curse, and a mocking smile appeared on her face. How could a curse be grasped?

But after grabbing and failing, the eight-foot tall woman used her spiritual power to intercept and resist the curse. Her spiritual power had inexplicably increased significantly after signing the contract with Lin Ze. But this was a forced increase, and she was not as skilled in using it as the Rift Woman, who was born of curses. She still had weaknesses.

The curse, which had been battling against the spiritual power, suddenly split off a sliver and rushed towards Lin Ze right under the eight-foot tall woman’s nose. The eight-foot tall woman moved her gaze for a moment and then focused on confronting the curse in front of her. She was still adapting to the control of her vast spiritual power.

The eight-foot tall woman had seen the curse of Kayako. It was a curse that had become a physical entity. It had been on Lin Ze’s body all along. This little bit of curse, touching Lin Ze?

Seeing the eight-foot tall woman remain calm, a bad feeling swept over the Rift Woman again, and it quickly came true.

When that sliver of curse crawled onto Lin Ze’s body, Lin Ze was completely oblivious, as he couldn’t see the physical form of the curse. He only felt a sudden chill, and then… nothing.

The curse disappeared on Lin Ze’s body. In the Rift Woman's perception, the curse… was eaten?

He’s not right!

The Rift Woman withdrew the curse. She was afraid that if she continued cursing for a while, she would be completely consumed, and then she would cease to exist.

Unbeatable… The Rift Woman was helpless.

The eight-foot tall woman punched towards the Rift Woman’s face. "Please, stop!"

The eight-foot tall woman’s fist stopped an inch from the Rift Woman’s face. She had just heard Lin Ze ask her to stop for now… The eight-foot tall woman’s heart sank a little.

"Please, I… I don’t want this." The Rift Woman’s appearance began to become normal, gradually transforming into the daughter of the house before she was possessed. She collapsed to the ground, her face full of fear as she began to cry.

"I don’t want to kill… I’m being controlled, I don't know how I became like this, please, save me.” Her gaze turned to Lin Ze, her tearful eyes making her look pitiful.

"Lin Ze, don’t listen to her.” The eight-foot tall woman’s face was somewhat anxious, but she couldn’t remind him because of Qinzi.

"What I said is true, please, help me. You, you can look at the problem with me. You are exorcists, you can expel the curse on me and save me, please." The girl knelt on the ground and begged Lin Ze.

Lin Ze slowly approached her. "If what you say is true, then Sister Qinzi should be able to solve the problem of the curse on you.”

Closer… closer…

The eight-foot tall woman watched Lin Ze get closer, and her expression suddenly returned to normal.

The girl suddenly jumped up and raised a hand to stab Lin Ze in the chest, but the next moment, the eight-foot tall woman punched her head to pieces.

Lin Ze had just asked her to do it. Good, good…

Lin Ze looked at the girl on the ground with disgust. "But unfortunately, what you said is false. Sister Qinzi said that all the people who were killed will be possessed by you and become Rift Women. Do you take me for a three-year-old?"

He looked at the eight-foot tall woman with a hint of self-deprecation. "I was still a little hesitant, after all.”

The eight-foot tall woman shook her head. She didn't think so. "Lin Ze has done very well."

The surrounding space suddenly began to collapse. A crack appeared in front of them. "It should be Qinzi doing something. Let’s leave here." The eight-foot tall woman picked up Lin Ze and rushed into the white light of the crack in an instant.

"I'll go back first, Lin Ze. I haven't finished reading my book yet.” After instantly reappearing in the room, the eight-foot tall woman threw the copper coin on the table and said goodbye to Lin Ze before disappearing. She was afraid that Lin Ze would be angry after knowing the truth and come to her for an explanation.

"You’re out? Just a moment.” Qinzi held a yin-yang fan in her hand and muttered something before fanning it towards the cabinet. A large number of curses flew out of the cabinet and were absorbed by the fan before Qinzi closed the fan.

"So, this was a test?"

"Yes, I know you might be angry, but Lin Ze, I don't want you to be soft-hearted.” Qinzi touched her left eye apologetically. "I was soft-hearted once, and that's how I got this scar. If I hadn’t been prepared, it wouldn’t have been just a scar."

"But you did very well, Lin Ze.”

"If it wasn’t for Sister Qinzi’s reminder, I really would have been shaken. But I'm not stupid, I wouldn’t blindly trust the other party. To me, even the Kayako in the conscious world, I tried to awaken her because I still remembered her. And at that time, besides that, I had no other way. As for the Oni-hana, it was because of Hiraki Hana that I couldn’t attack. As for the eight-foot tall woman, she’s the one that made me the most conflicted. So I’m willing to try."

Lin Ze sighed. "Sister Qinzi, I'm not a saint. I just have no other way. Every step I take is a desperate attempt to survive. It’s also my luck that I’m alive today. If Kayako didn’t remember me, or if Oni-hana came sooner than Kayako, I would have died long ago."

Qinzi went up to Lin Ze and patted his shoulder. "Luck is also part of your strength. Now you have some self-defense ability, but don’t believe everything you hear. I just don't want you to fall into a trap later. I don't dislike your desire to save ghosts, after all, some ghosts had a miserable life before they died and still retain some humanity. But I hope you will always be vigilant. Remember, Lin Ze, the best persuasion is to be stronger than the other party! The living are always more important than the dead! Okay, don’t worry about it. As I said, that girl is dead, it was just a curse attached to her."

"I’ll send you home to rest. I’ll give you something as a gift to apologize next time.” Qinzi put her arm around Lin Ze’s shoulder and walked out.

Lin Ze let out a sigh and put those worries aside. "Sister Qinzi is also for my own good. But your gift is definitely a good thing, so I’ll look forward to it. Let’s go buy some things first. I promised to go to Hana’s house today. I can’t go empty-handed."

"Alright."

ps: Are there any brothers still reading? It’s been very quiet these past few days. The virus is rampant these days, everyone should drink more water. My throat hurts so badly I can’t even speak.
