Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

1453 Qi Zhenbai Loses Control (1)

Old Master Qi and Father Qi just thought that Zhenbai’s cold ailment had flared up, which was why he looked like this. Thinking back to when it had happened before, hadn’t he also looked in pain then?

It was just that this grandson, who was especially doted on, never revealed the slightest bit of anything in front of his elders. It was precisely because of this that Old Master Qi’s heart ached even more for this child. This child had too much forbearance. In addition, he had just vomited blood. Old Master Qi was afraid that Zhenbai’s cold ailment would flare up and wear him down again after so many years of recuperation. He wanted to say something, but hesitated. He was terribly worried.

Father Qi was also extremely worried. Although he was selfishly worried that his line would be cut off, he was genuinely concerned about his son now, and afraid of something unexpected happening to him. After Zhenbai finished speaking, Father Qi didn’t go out, but hurriedly asked Celestial Master Zhang, “Celestial Master Zhang, Zhenbai… What’s wrong with Zhenbai? Is he okay? Is his old ailment flaring up? That’s not right. Even if it is, he shouldn’t be vomiting blood. Zhenbai, where have you been these past few days? What happened? You were fine before!”

His son had recuperated well before, and Celestial Master Zhang had also said that it was possible for Zhenbai to live a few more decades to be 100. Now, however, his old illness had suddenly flared up, and it could be even more serious. Father Qi couldn’t accept it, and his hands trembled as he supported his son.

Compared with Fourth Brother Qi, who had developed a cold personality while growing up, Qi Zhenbai was cold by nature to begin with. Before he met his wife, there were very few things that Qi Zhenbai cared about, apart from his grandfather. He also didn’t have a close relationship with Father and Mother Qi because of what happened when he was young. Later, when he had his wife, his relationship with Father and Mother Qi gradually improved a little. At that moment, Qi Zhenbai looked at Father Qi with a complicated expression. He rubbed his temples and said in a deep voice again, “Dad, I have something to discuss with Celestial Master Zhang. You and Grandpa…”

Before Qi Zhenbai could finish speaking, Father Qi immediately raised his voice and retorted, “Zhenbai, what can’t your grandfather and I hear?” What he wanted to ask the most now was where on earth this child had been recently. Why did something happen as soon as he came back? What on earth was going on?

Before Father Qi could finish speaking, Old Master Qi interrupted him. He got up, leaned on his cane, and called for his eldest son to leave with him.

“Dad, Zhenbai…”

“Didn’t you hear that Zhenbai has something to discuss further with Celestial Master Zhang?” Old Master Qi valued his grandson very much. He thought that Zhenbai, this child, was going to ask Celestial Master Zhang the truth about why he suddenly vomited blood and fainted. Old Master Qi didn’t plan to cover up or hide the fact that his fourth son had schemed with an outsider against Zhenbai. Even if Zhenbai didn’t ask Celestial Master Zhang, Old Master Qi would have brought it up himself.

Before going out, Old Master Qi suddenly said, “Zhenbai, don’t worry. Grandpa will definitely give you an explanation for this!”

After saying that, the old man led a stupefied Father Qi out of Zhenbai’s room.

As Old Master Qi and Father Qi left, Qi Zhenbai stared at the old man’s back with a rare emotional expression and didn’t look away for a long time. After a while, he withdrew his gaze and looked calmly at Celestial Master Zhang in front of him.

At that moment, Celestial Master Zhang also thought that Young Master Qi wanted to ask him about the grave being moved. He deliberated for a moment, but didn’t want to get involved in the Qi family’s affairs. He said, “Young Master Qi, if you want to know anything, you can ask Old Master Qi directly. He might not hide it from you!”

Qi Zhenbai’s cold and deep eyes casually swept over Celestial Master Zhang’s face. Celestial Master Zhang’s face stiffened slightly, and he heard a deep and somewhat forbidding voice. “I don’t have anything to ask you. I just hope that no matter what you saw today, you don’t tell anyone else about it!”

The man’s voice was still light, but his tone was irrefutable. It carried his usual overbearing and forbidding aura, making people afraid to refuse.

Hearing this, Celestial Master Zhang was also a bit stumped. He really thought that Young Master Qi in front of him had wanted to ask about Fourth Master Qi’s plan to move the grave. Who would have thought that this person in front of him didn’t ask anything, and just told him to keep things a secret?

Celestial Master Zhang had never dared to underestimate the Qi family, especially this person in front of him. Even now, he still couldn’t see through him at all.

Seeing that Young Master Qi really didn’t plan to ask about the grave being moved at all, and didn’t seem to think much of this matter, Celestial Master Zhang was momentarily stumped.

He couldn’t tell if this person had already long known it, or if he just didn’t care about being plotted against.

Of course, given his understanding of Young Master Qi, he was more inclined to the former.

Young Master Qi’s thoughts were too deep and profound. Celestial Master Zhang vaguely felt that if Fourth Master Qi hadn’t used Old Master Qi as bait, it would be harder to set Young Master Qi up than ascending to the heavens.

It had to be said that Celestial Master Zhang was spot on. Qi Zhenbai really didn’t think much of Fourth Uncle Qi’s scheme, nor was he surprised. In fact, when he rushed to the grave and didn’t see his grandfather, he had already guessed that he had fallen into his fourth uncle’s trap.

He had always been well aware that his fourth uncle saw him as a stumbling block. When his grandfather made him the Qi family heir, his fourth uncle hated him to death and always saw him as a thorn in his side who hindered his future, and couldn’t wait to pull him out. He really wasn’t surprised that his fourth uncle wanted him dead. The only thing he had underestimated this time was how low his fourth uncle’s bottom line was. He never thought that his fourth uncle would lie to him about the old man’s health just to set him up.

Thinking this, cold and murderous intent flashed in Qi Zhenbai’s eyes. The blood in his body couldn’t help but boil, and his eyes gradually turned red again. The veins on the back of his hands bulged one by one, and his expression was both excited and malevolent.

Qi Zhenbai didn’t notice that when he got riled up, the baleful aura in his body fluctuated again and started to gain the upper hand. Celestial Master Zhang faced this baleful aura as if he was facing a great enemy and panicked. Seeing that Young Master Qi was gradually losing control again, he hurriedly said, “Young Master Qi, calm down! Calm down first!”
