"Will I die?" Qi Chengshuo asked after a moment of surprise.

"No, at least not now. Do you feel hot all over and very uncomfortable, like you're on fire?" Ye Xianya asked while taking his pulse.

"Yes!" Qi Chengshuo nodded quickly.

“But your pulse is normal. Even though your heart has undergone tremendous changes, it is still contracting and can still make your blood flow throughout your body. There is nothing wrong with your heartbeat and pulse,” Ye Xianya said softly.

After hearing her words, Qi Chengshuo said with a bitter expression, "Then I can only endure it like this?"

"Hmm." Ye Xianya nodded gently: "If I'm not mistaken, as long as you get through this, your strength will definitely increase greatly. If you feel particularly uncomfortable, you can soak in ice water to relieve it."

"No need for that!" Qi Chengshuo said with a wry smile, "Actually, I don't feel particularly unwell, but I feel like my body is on fire, and my head is a little dizzy."

"That's not a big problem!" Ye Xianya smiled. "If you want to gain strength, you have to put in the effort. If I could gain great power just by having my body burning hot for a few days, like you, I would be willing too."

Hearing her say that, Qi Chengshuo certainly couldn't be coy.

“I asked my mother, and there were indeed some strange phenomena when I was born. Not only was there a bright red light in the room, but she also vaguely saw a ball of fire enter my body and disappear into my chest.” Qi Chengshuo paused slightly as he spoke, “Because no one else in the room noticed it except her, she didn’t tell anyone else.”

It was only after he told his mother that his heart was different from ordinary people that his mother told him about the strange phenomena she had seen before.

"Could it be... that you are truly a deity descended to earth?" As Yi Xianya spoke, she touched Qi Chengshuo's chest and then used her internal vision technique to examine his internal organs and limbs.

“Except for your heart, the rest of you are just a mortal body, no different from an ordinary person.”

"That's good." Qi Chengshuo nodded slightly. "Thank you for your help today. I feel a little dizzy, so I'll head back to my residence first."

He felt so sleepy that he could barely keep his eyes open and just wanted to lie down and sleep.

Ye Xianya knew that Qi Chengshuo's body couldn't withstand the baptism of powerful energy and was showing some abnormalities, so she quickly said, "Then you should go back and rest first. I'll go out this afternoon to buy some precious medicinal herbs and refine a few batches of pills for you, which may alleviate your pain."

"Thank you!" Qi Chengshuo said with a smile. He was really too exhausted to hold on any longer, and even his eyes were squinting.

Ye Xianya immediately called in Guang Peng and the others who were guarding outside, and asked them to take Qi Chengshuo back to rest. She also instructed them not to call a doctor, but to let him rest in bed.

"Xianya, what happened to Chengshuo?" Qi Jiu asked hurriedly when he saw Qi Chengshuo being carried out.

"He's not feeling well and needs to rest. Don't worry, Father. He'll be back to normal after a couple of days of sleep. This afternoon, I'll go out to buy some medicinal herbs and make him a few batches of pills. I guarantee he'll be back to normal after taking them and be as energetic as before," Ye Xianya said with a smile.

Qi Jiu was immediately relieved upon hearing this.

He didn't know when it started, but he listened to Ye Xianya's words very much, as if everything his daughter said was right.

This has become a habit.

"Aren't you going to have your fortune told this afternoon? Just write down what medicinal herbs you need, and your father will send someone to buy them for you," Qi Jiu said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xianya didn't stand on ceremony and hurriedly went back to write the prescription.

She had originally planned to have her fortune told in the afternoon, but since someone was offering to help, she decided to go ahead with it.

Fortune telling for ordinary people and helping them solve their problems can accumulate good karma.

Even if I stop cultivating immortality, I still need to restore my strength. Only by successfully restoring my strength can I better protect my family.

For her, fortune-telling and exorcising demons were the most direct and effective ways to accumulate good karma.

After having lunch and resting for a while, Ye Xianya went to Taoyuanju.

Upon arrival, they found a large crowd gathered outside.

"Miss Ye." Upon seeing Ye Xianya arrive, several elderly women rushed over and surrounded her.

Before they could even speak, Shen Furong hurriedly stepped in to protect her mistress: "Ladies, please make way. Our young lady will tell your fortunes after we enter Peach Blossom Residence. The number plates are still inside, so please be patient."

“We can’t wait any longer, Miss Ye, please help us calculate, our daughters have all disappeared.” One of the women, dressed in blue, said excitedly.

"Don't rush, ladies, let's go inside and talk slowly!" Ye Xianya looked at everyone and said gently, "It's still snowing outside. Let's go inside and talk. In this freezing weather, we don't want you to catch a cold, otherwise how will we find our lost daughter?"

After hearing Ye Xianya's words, the crowd stopped stopping her and followed her into the leftmost room of Taoyuan Residence.

"Don't worry, ladies. Tell me slowly, one at a time. I will do my best to help you find your missing daughters," Ye Xianya said reassuringly after entering the house.

The woman in the blue dress spoke first: "We live in the west of the city, in the same alley. We're all old acquaintances. The first one I didn't see was my daughter, Qinghe. She's fifteen years old this year. She got engaged at the beginning of the year and will get married next March."

The old woman said excitedly, “My daughter is such a good girl. For the past six months, she has been embroidering her dowry in the house. She never leaves the house and never runs around. Three days ago, I came back after washing clothes for someone. Everything in the yard was normal, but my daughter, who should have been embroidering her dowry in the house, was nowhere to be found.”

“In just three days, five girls from the dozens of families living in this alley have gone missing. They are all young girls in their teens, unmarried. We have reported it to the authorities, and the yamen has sent people to search, but to no avail. A yamen runner said that Miss Ye is the best fortune teller in the world, and asked us to come here for help. We beg Miss Ye to help us with your fortune telling. If we can find the children, we will reward you handsomely.” Another old woman in a blue-gray dress said while wiping away tears.

Ye Xianya carefully observed the faces of the five women and began to calculate their features using her fingers.

Because the result was somewhat unclear, Ye Xianya used her mystical arts to calculate it again, and this time she finally saw a clear picture.

"I'll go back to Red Brick Lane with you. A girl is about to be taken away. Let's stop her first." Ye Xianya said as she grabbed her cloth bag, slung it over her shoulder, and walked quickly outside.

Several elderly women hurriedly jogged to catch up.

"Furong, I'm not doing any fortune telling this afternoon," Ye Xianya said, turning around before leading the group hurriedly toward Red Brick Alley.

Red Brick Alley in the West of the City is an extremely ordinary alley in Beijing. It is named after the fact that almost all the houses in the surrounding area are made of red bricks.

This area is located in the west of the city and is inhabited by ordinary people. The courtyards of each family are not large, and the alleys are a bit narrow.

Ye Xianya led the group to the door of a house, where they saw a young girl with her hair in a bun push open the door and come out.
