Chapter 156 CHAPTER 155: The Three Punishments For Rose

Outside Mount Chamfu, Rose suddenly appeared in the air. Then she started weeping.

At that time, the space nearby her started fluctuating. Then a man appeared before her.

She wiped her tears and looked at him.

"You, why are you following me?" asked Rose. And she looked carefully at the face of the man and she asked again, "You are not him. Who are you?"

The man looked a lot like Joey. But, he was a bit older than the current Joey.

He sniggered at her and said, "That doesn't matter. I come from the future to punish you."

"So, you are from the future. Alright, just kill me. I can't live with this guilt anymore." Rose said while sobbing. There was no desire for living in her eyes anymore.

"Hmph!" Joey snorted. Then he chanted a spell and shouted, "Corruption Beast's internal mutilating curse, activate!"

A dark seal appeared on his right hand. Then, he quickly rushed toward her.

Rose closed both her eyes and waited willingly to die in his hands.

Joey struck his palm with the dark seal three times on her body. One in her stomach and the remaining two strikes on each of her chests.

"Aah!" She cried with pain and touched her stomach.

"Why don't you just kill me?" Rose asked with tears in her eyes.

"Killing you! That will be a mercy for you. " Joey sniggered and shouted, "I will give your 2nd punishment. From today onward, your status of wife will be removed and you will be a mere slave of my Tang Clan."

Rose didn't react to him. She just looked down feeling extremely guilty.

"Hey, look at me. From today onward, you will never be able to see me again. So, remember this face, you hate the most now." Joey said.

"Your last punishment will be the Ahalya's Curse." He said.

Joey then chanted a mantra in Sanskrit and finally shouted, "The Ahalya's Curse, activate!"

Then, a red seal appeared in the air before them.

"Do you accept my curse?" Joey asked with a firm tone.

"Yes, I accept it," Rose replied without thinking.

Then suddenly the red seal curse entered inside her body through her forehead.

"Aaargh! Aaargh!" She held her head and started screaming with extreme pain.

"The pain is due to my Corruption Beast's internal mutilating curse. From today onward you will experience the mutilation of your internal organs twice daily. But, they will heal again after that. This will be your first punishment." Joey explained.

"And about the Ahalya's curse, It's a mental curse. You will know it soon. This will be your punishment for your corrupted mind that almost destroy yourself. " He continued.

At that time, Rose kept screaming and rolled on the ground in pain. She fainted and woke up multiple times.

Joey waved at the air and said, "Go!"

Then Rose disappeared from that place and teleported inside a room in Zhang Family in Canon City.

Blaargh! Blaargh! (Sound of vomiting)

Joey vomited blood twice just after that.

"Son, what have you done?" A middle-aged man appeared behind him and asked.

"Master, it is the only way. I am doing it for another reason." Joey bowed at him and replied politely.

"But, that is the Ahalya's curse. Alright, it is your personal matter. I will not interfere in it."  The man said.

About Ahalya's curse, it was actually from Indian mythology. Once the Hindu god Brahma, the creator had created the most beautiful woman called Ahalya. She was married to the much older sage Gautama.

It stated that Indra, the king of gods became enamored by Ahalya's beauty, learned of her husband's absence, and came to the ashram disguised as Gautama to request sexual intercourse with her, praising her as a shapely and slim-waisted woman. She saw through his disguise but consented owing to her "curiosity". According to another interpretation, Ahalya's pride in her beauty compels her to accept Indra's advance on her.

After the deed was done, Indra rushed out of the hut and ran straight into Gautama, who was returning from a bath in the Ganges, blazing forth with his ascetic power. He cursed Indra, the king of gods as " You fool! Since you have taken my form and done what should not be done, you shall be without your fruit." And as soon as the great-souled Gautama said this in anger, at that very moment the two testicles of the thousand-eyed god fell down. (Later restored with the testicles of a ram...Another version of the curse made Indra sahasrayoni possessing 1,000 female genitals).

Later Ahalya tried to absolve all of her guilt, describing how she fell prey to Indra's trickery or was raped. But, both  Ahalya and Indra were cursed by Gautama. While the curse of Ahalya was different and worse. This was the very curse Joey cast on her now.

Then Joey chanted another mantra in Sanskrit and finally shouted, "Seal memory come out!"

Then a non-tangible white ball suddenly appeared before him.

"Go!" He shouted.

Then the non-tangible white ball quickly moved toward the peak of Mount Chamfu.

It quickly appeared before the unconscious Joey and entered inside his soul sea. No one around him saw it.

Back outside Mount Chamfu, Joey from the future bowed at the middle-aged man.

"Boy, I don't really like to interfere on this matter. But, that is Ahalya's curse! Isn't that a bit harsh to her? " The middle-aged man said with some worry.

"Master, it is the only way for both of us. Hmph!"  Joey replied and sighed.

"What is going on? I see your Rudraksha Mala suddenly becoming black today. So, I have come here to check on you. But, I never thought that I will meet your future self here. Boy, tell me, why is your darkness energy suddenly spiking recently?" The middle-aged man asked.

"Master, it is because of the cultivation technique I am cultivating right now. Now, everything is under control. Nothing will happen like this again." Joey said.

"Oh! Then, it is all good." The middle-aged man replied.

"Master, how is little Xiuying now?" Joey asked with a smile.

"Son, when she woke up after we left the Tang Nation, she had been a bit depressed at first. But, now she is doing fine by herself. Hahahaha, nowadays she always loves to play flute and Zither almost all the time.  " The middle-aged man laughed and replied. He was all smiles from ear to ear when he thought about the little girl.
