Upon hearing this, the old Taoist priest looked at Jiang Yue in shock, "You want to give your lifespan to that kid?"

As soon as Jiang Yue asked the question, the old Taoist priest guessed what she wanted to do.

To be honest, he was somewhat shocked.

Having lived this long, this was the first time he had ever seen someone so willing to share their lifespan with another.

This isn't just about sharing a piece of candy or a steamed bun; it's about sharing lives...

Moreover, this girl still doesn't know that the boy is facing this life-threatening ordeal because of her.

"Little girl, if I had told you that you only have a dozen or so years left to live, would you still be willing to give them to that kid?"

The old Taoist priest looked at Jiang Yue and asked.

“Then I’m willing too,” Jiang Yue answered without hesitation, “because Lu Jingnian is worth it.”

"Hahaha……"

Upon hearing this answer, the old Taoist priest laughed heartily, "What a fine 'worth it'! Just for that, I can help you with this favor. But I still have to ask you one more time: are you really sure?"

Jiang Yue nodded heavily, "Please help me, Daoist Master, I am willing to give half of my lifespan to Lu Jingnian."

In that case, she could be considered to have died on the same day, month, and year as Lu Jingnian, right?

"Go and call that kid in. Tell him that your soul is extremely unstable right now and you need the blood of the person you care about most to help stabilize it. After you get that kid's blood, I will link your two lives together."

Your fate can protect him from this calamity, but from now on, whenever he is injured, you will share his pain.

Jiang Yue understood what the old Taoist priest was saying, but she still didn't quite understand. "Taoist priest, if I share the pain with him, will Lu Jingnian feel less pain?"

The old Taoist priest nodded, "That's natural. It's like an apple; if you divide it in half, it's naturally half gone."

Jiang Yue then asked, "If I'm injured or feeling unwell, will Lu Jingnian be able to sense it?"

This girl has a lot of questions, and she's also very shrewd.

"Of course he can feel it, and he will help you share most of the pain. After all, he took your lifespan, and this is something he has to bear for you."

"I see!"

Jiang Yue pursed her lips. "Won't my husband find out about this?"

He won't agree.

Lu Jingnian would definitely not agree.

"You want to keep this from him forever?"

The old Taoist priest looked at Jiang Yue as if she were a fool, "That kid is so shrewd, you're already doing well that you managed to trick him out of his blood."

“If he wanted to scam blood, I wouldn’t have had to go out and call him.”

Jiang Yue leaned closer to the old Taoist priest and whispered a few words in his ear.

"You little rascal, you're a better liar than I am."

The old Taoist priest looked at Jiang Yue with admiration, then waved his hand at her, "I understand. You should go sit on the platform now, I'll go call someone."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Taoist Master. You must act very anxious, otherwise he won't fall for it."

After saying that, Jiang Yue quickly climbed onto the platform, sat in the center of the Bagua formation, rubbed her hair to make it messy, and then, with a determined heart, bit the soft flesh inside her lip, letting the blood stick to her lips.

Finally, she pretended to collapse helplessly on the platform, making herself look extremely weak.

Lu Jingnian, who went to fetch the old Taoist priest, was stunned when he returned and saw Jiang Yue's appearance.

This girl's acting is so convincing.

"Yueyue!"

When Lu Jingnian, who followed in, saw Jiang Yue's appearance, he panicked immediately.

"Kid, you can't go over there now."

The old Taoist priest stopped Lu Jingnian, who was about to rush over, and said, "This girl is currently being devoured by another soul. They are both trapped in this body and cannot find a way to take over it. You need to quickly draw blood; you are the person she cares about most."

Only your blood can guide her to take over this body.

The old Taoist priest spoke in a great hurry, urging Lu Jingnian to take the knife offered by the priest and cut his finger.

Bright red blood gushed from Lu Jingnian's fingers, and the old Taoist priest immediately pressed his hand onto the Bagua formation.

Almost the instant Lu Jingnian's blood touched the Bagua formation, the formation began to spin rapidly.

"Boy, put your hands here and don't move."

The old Taoist priest released Lu Jingnian, took out the peach wood sword he had brought, and began to form a hand seal with his left hand.

Lu Jingnian didn't know what the old Taoist was doing, but as the hand seals he made became faster and faster, Lu Jingnian suddenly felt as if something was entering his body through the wound on his hand.

Jiang Yue, on the stage, grew paler and paler.

It seems the situation is getting worse.

Lu Jingnian was very anxious, but now was the crucial moment for the old Taoist priest to perform his ritual, and Lu Jingnian could not disturb him.

Jiang Yue, sitting on the platform, was indeed feeling extremely uncomfortable at that moment.

The old Taoist priest only said that if he were to give Lu Jing a portion of his lifespan, he would feel the other person's pain, but he didn't say that he would be in so much pain when performing the ritual.

Jiang Yue felt something being peeled away from her body, and her very bones ached.

Her whole body felt like it was about to split open, but the pain didn't make her faint; instead, it made her more and more awake...

Jiang Yue felt the pain slowly subside in her body after nearly half an hour, and she also clearly felt that her body was much weaker.

Even the hair hanging down on his forehead had grown a few white hairs.

The Bagua formation suddenly stopped, and the old Taoist priest put down his peach wood sword and looked at Jiang Yue, who looked exhausted, on the platform. "Little girl, how are you feeling?"

Jiang Yue raised her head, her voice very weak, "I feel like I have no strength left in my body, but my mind feels much clearer."

She wasn't lying. Jiang Yue truly felt that she had never felt so clear-headed before, and her eyes felt much brighter.

Looking at the many white hairs sprouting on Jiang Yue's head, the old Taoist priest sighed inwardly and said, "You just fought with other souls for your body, which consumed too much energy, so it's normal for you to be weak."

I'll make you some pills in a bit. After taking them for a while, you'll recover, so don't worry.

"Thank you, Taoist priest."

Jiang Yue thanked her gratefully.

"Yueyue!"

Lu Jingnian walked over and carefully held her in his arms. When he saw the white hair on her head, he froze. "Daoist Master, Yueyue's hair..."

The old Taoist priest explained, "This is because she used up too much energy just now. Don't worry, I will make some pills for her in a while. After taking them for a month, she will recover completely."

I have now successfully stabilized her soul, and I can ensure that she will not have any further mishaps within five years.

is that so?

Lu Jingnian was skeptical.

After being held in Lu Jingnian's arms, Jiang Yue closed her eyes.

She feels so tired right now and just wants to have a good night's sleep.
