Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 549

Once she died, her body would be picked clean by the fish in the pond before her bones were retrieved to be powdered and poured on the stone path at the front gate. That way, they would have completed their century-mission of The Firstborn's Woe, enjoying prosperity for the rest of the generations.

But why? Why should she and her mother die for such a spineless and foolish family? Why should they have their ashes trampled over by anyone while they shamelessly enjoyed prosperity?

She was reluctant to let that happen.

Perhaps because she was the crucial ninth generation, or due to her unwillingness to accept her fate, she absorbed the grudges of the eight previous infant spirits that sank in the pond and transformed into a fierce ghost.

She vowed to demolish her clan members and make them experience the living hell of losing their loved ones. That clan should've never existed in the first place.

Unfortunately, before she could execute her plan, her father and the clan elders were taken away by her mother, who had transformed into a ghost.

She claimed that bringing her into the world was a debt owed to her. As a mother, not being able to protect her daughter was a regret in itself; she would never allow her to bear any murder debts.

As such, she took on the burden of the murder debt for her, casting a final curse upon the remaining clan members.

She didn't let them die; instead, she wanted the clan elders and her husband to witness their family line extinguished, with no male heirs born ever again. For the next century, they would suffer in poverty and hardship, never to see prosperity again.

After casting the curse, her mother disappeared before her eyes.
