Rebirth: A Woman with Frozen Hearts [English]

Taboo & Immediate Punishment (1)

Days changed days and it brought new trouble to Ming Yue. The mother of Xiao Yin, Li Hua came to school angrily. He asked Vice School Head-no.. Principal Zhuge was now to call Ming Yue to meet him. So .. here he was standing in front of Li Hua, inside the principal's office.

"So you're Ming Yue, the damned child of D?" Li Hua asked, his nose raised slightly as he stared arrogantly at the little girl in front of him.

Ming Yue frowned slightly, not because of what the woman said but because of the evil spirit attached to this woman in front of her. The evil spirit looked like a chameleon and was as big as a medium-sized dog, its eyes four and out of its mouth came a dark green mist. The evil spirit was casually wandering on Li Hua's shoulder.

'This woman 'had done such a taboo thing.' Ming Yue mused inwardly, but she wondered who was the victim.

What Ming Yue meant about the taboo was the 'Ritual of Sacrifice'. It was one of the taboos that humans could do in exchange for wealth or fame. But the price is very expensive, it takes a direct sacrifice from family members. It could be a son, daughter, father, mother, or sibling.

'Who was the victim then?' Mingyue pondered.

"Hey! I'm talking to you!" Li Hua's voice resuscitated Ming Yue from her deep thoughts.

"I hear you." Ming Yue replied as she looked into the woman's eyes, "You don't need to shout like that."

"Then tell me, did you hurt my daughter?" Li Hua interrogated Ming Yue.

"Oh, Xiao Yin and I had bet before and he was injured from having to pay the bet, that's all." Ming Yue explained briefly.

"Even if it's a bet, you don't have to be cruel!" Li Hua argued, "I want you to apologize to my daughter!"

"I refused and spoke of the word 'Cruel'.." Ming Yue sneered at Li Hua, "Do you have the right to say that to me?"

Principal Zhuge who had remained silent the entire time, looked at both sides calmly, reacting to Ming Yue's words.

"What are you talking about?" Li Hua asked, frowning confusedly.

"..Sacrificial Ritual." said Ming Yue and hearing those two words, Li Hua's face turned pale. His facial expression was terrible.

"K-You.. ..How can.."

Li Hua's mouth opened and closed without any words coming out of it. Seeing Li Hua's reaction, Ming Yue smirked evilly. His expression was now similar to that of the villain boss described in the novel book.

"..Do you want to know what I saw?" He asked, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "Should I say it here?"

"I saw-"

"STOP!!" Li Hua immediately reacted and when she realized what she had done, Li Hua clenched her mouth tightly. School Head Zhuge gave him a suspicious look, the atmosphere in the office was filled with tension. Ming Yue snorted softly, she turned around and headed towards the door but stopped as soon as she held onto the doorknob.

"..You have done a taboo.. If you think that there is no karma, then you are wrong." Ming Yue said and opened the door, "I'll make sure you get the punishment you deserve. That evil spirit of yours, that will eat you later." With that Ming Yue disappeared behind the door.

"Sorry, Madam Xiao, I think it's better to talk to the Wu family about this matter." School Head Zhuge gave a peaceful solution, but .. from Li Hua's gaze as he stared at the door, it was highly unlikely that he would agree.

Li Hua trembled in place but his eyes were red and his hands were clenched, his nails stuck in his palms. He seemed to have miscalculated, Li Hua admitted that he did not think Ming Yue could really see what the general public could not.

*'Cursed Child.. Suitable for the s**alan girl..' Li Hua cursed inwardly. Now he must wipe this girl off the face of the earth. Deciding to kill Ming Yue, Li Hua left Principal Zhuge in his office without a word. Alone in his office, School Head Zhuge let out a heavy sigh, feeling that ever since Ming Yue changed her personality, things had become chaotic.

No. maybe it will happen when someone who is always oppressed, fights back. The surrounding people wanted to trample on him so he could not fight anymore but the result was different. Ming Yue, that girl, she kept fighting back.

Recalling what Ming Yue said to Madam Xiao, Principal Zhuge's eyes narrowed slightly. Ming Yue, before leaving, said that Madam Xiao had done a taboo thing and previously she had said about the Sacrifice Ritual. and Madam Xiao turned pale the moment she heard those two words.

'Don't..' Principal Zhuge pondered and********weight came out of his mouth once more.

"Why do I feel like this city is full of dangerous people?" Principal Zhuge muttered softly.

Actually, Principal Zhuge's feelings were slightly off the mark. Not only in City D, many cultivator clans were scattered all over the country. Although they usually lived in the 'Hidden Realm', a realm where most Cultivators lived but some clans had outside branches in the human realm.

Not only Cultivators, the residents of the Demon Realm were also doing the same. Some of them such as the Mage Clan, the Fox Clan, the Vampire Clan, and the Wolf Clan also had branches in the human world. But in the case of the Vampire Clan, they had to use 'Life Incense' to cover the yin in their bodies.

As for the God realm, though, the gods and goddesses rarely descended because they were not really interested in the Human world and they only descended when Cultivators were unable to handle certain things like the Demon plague or the dangerous curse that had been it takes a lot of human casualties.
