Liu Yiyi forced out an extremely pale smile: "Senior brother, I was just afraid you'd worry. Besides, I wanted to play along with her for a bit. I wanted to see if she could outmaneuver me or if I could outmaneuver her to death."

After Liu Yiyi explained for a moment, she suddenly realized something was wrong and looked up at Zhang Tianle abruptly: "Senior brother, you broke the seal?"

If his senior brother hadn't broken the seal and used mystical techniques, how would he have known about Aunt Li's affairs?

His senior brother had sworn before their master that he would never use mystical arts again; if he did, then…

Thinking of this, Liu Yiyi suddenly sat up in bed and grabbed Zhang Tianle's hand tightly: "Senior brother, have you broken the taboo?"

She was afraid that her senior brother would break his vow in order to cure her illness.

Her senior brother's five deficiencies and three lacks are his fate. Once he tells fortunes or does feng shui for others, he will lose his own lifespan. Each time, it will range from a few days to several years. The more terrible the feng shui arrangement, the more serious the loss of his lifespan.

She didn't want her senior brother to risk his life to save her.

Thinking of this, Liu Yiyi threw back the covers and was about to get out of bed: "If you really risk your life to save me, I'll be discharged right now!"

She became agitated and started coughing violently, making her already pale face, which was already thin from blood loss, even paler.

"Don't rush," Zhang Tianle said, pressing the man down. "I've found a way to shorten my own lifespan when I do fortune telling and feng shui."

Liu Yiyi became even more agitated: "You're talking nonsense! Master said back then that the Five Deficiencies and Three Lacks are simply unsolvable, unless..."

Unless one practices evil and forbidden techniques of heretical cultivation.

Liu Yiyi suddenly looked up at Zhang Tianle.

When she saw Zhang Tianle's fair face with a faint golden glow, her eyes were filled with astonishment.

Those who practice evil magic will have their faces turn ashen and become tainted with filth.

Losing one's lifespan will result in a short lifespan.

However, her senior brother's face contained golden light of merit, and his lifespan had increased by more than forty years.

"This... is impossible!"

Liu Yiyi exclaimed in surprise.

His senior brother's lifespan was reduced by thirty years when he extended his master's life at the time of the master's death, leaving him with only ten years to live.

But now his senior brother's lifespan has increased by fifty years.

Moreover, it doesn't seem like he used forbidden techniques to prolong his life.

"Senior brother, you..."

Zhang Tianle pressed her back onto the hospital bed: "Silly girl, I already told you I've found the perfect way to solve the problem of losing lifespan. Now you're willing to stay here and recuperate, right?"

Liu Yiyi gripped Zhang Tianle's hand tightly: "Senior brother, promise me! You absolutely cannot use those evil techniques to prolong your life!"

All evil cultivators meet a tragic end, and she didn't want her senior brother to suffer the same fate.

As for what special secret method her senior brother might have to prolong his life, she wasn't curious; as long as he solved the problem of his lifespan, that was enough.

Zhang Tianle covered her with a blanket: "Don't worry, I won't go that far. You should rest and recover in the hospital. I'll come see you again in a while!"

"Okay." Liu Yiyi smiled weakly, and before Zhang Tianle could leave, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Zhang Tianle gave Liu Yiyi a deep look, then turned and left. The moment he turned his back, his eyes turned cold.

He just calculated far more things than he had told his junior sister.

Aunt Li has not only stopped taking care of her recently, but she has also been beating and threatening her behind her back, saying that if she dares to tell him about the beating, she will kill him too.

To prove that what she said was true, Aunt Li even showed her a video.

To avoid causing him trouble, his junior sister could only let Aunt Li act arrogantly and did not complain to him even after he arrived.

Although my junior sister had already secretly dealt with Aunt Li, her strength was too weak, and it was completely useless against such a wicked person as Aunt Li.

"Well done, really." Zhang Tianle sneered.

Standing next to Zhang Tianle, Chen Ruixiang, who was trying to make himself invisible, suddenly felt a chilling aura.

"Master, why don't we leave this matter to the Chen family to handle?"

Before his mother came, she repeatedly told him to befriend Zhang Tianle.

From the conversation he overheard between Zhang Tianle and his junior sister, he could roughly guess that the caregiver, Aunt Li, had thoroughly offended Zhang Tianle.

Zhang Tianle shook his head: "No need. I can handle it myself."

He can handle it himself?

Could it be that they're using some kind of mystical art from their esoteric world to deal with Aunt Li?

"Master, please don't do anything rash. If you use the power of metaphysics to harm people, you will be judged by the Metaphysics Guild. The Metaphysics Guild is extremely powerful. In the past, any master who used evil magic to harm people has been brought to justice. So please don't test the law." Chen Ruixiang hurriedly grabbed Zhang Tianle's arm, afraid that if he was even a second too late, Zhang Tianle would use the power of metaphysics to harm people.

"Who said I was going to use evil magic to harm people?"

"Huh?" Chen Ruixiang awkwardly withdrew his hand: "I thought you would..."

A cold glint flashed in Zhang Tianle's eyes.

If you dare to hit his most beloved junior sister, don't blame him for using mystical arts to achieve the same goal.

"Bang!"

Before Chen Ruixiang could finish speaking, a figure bumped into Zhang Tianle.

Zhang Tianle, who was hit, was unharmed. It was the burly middle-aged woman who hit him who fell to the ground, cursing, "Who the hell is this?! Don't you have eyes?! You've killed me! You…"

The woman had just finished scolding when she looked up and saw Zhang Tianle's face. She immediately shut up: "Oh dear, isn't this Xiao Zhang? Are you alright? Did Auntie bump into you and hurt you? Auntie will rub it for you."

This person was none other than Aunt Li, whom Zhang Tianle was looking for.

At this moment, Aunt Li cursed her bad luck in her heart, and also glanced nervously at the ward where Liu Yiyi was. She was really worried that Liu Yiyi was gossiping behind her back and telling Zhang Tianle everything about her.

She had originally been somewhat fond of Zhang Tianle, thinking of wooing him into becoming her son-in-law, especially since she had heard from his brother-in-law the day before yesterday that the antique street in Yangcheng was going to be demolished.

The two-story building left behind by Zhang Tianle and his master is worth 50 million in compensation.

That's why she rushed back today.

If she finds an opportunity to get her daughter together with Zhang Tianle, then kills Liu Yiyi, one of the heirs, and fools Zhang Tianle, then the 50 million will be within her grasp.

Thinking of this, Aunt Li's smile deepened.

She jumped up and grabbed Zhang Tianle: "Oh, Xiao Zhang! You have no idea how hard Auntie has been these past few days! You're back just in time, Auntie has something to discuss with you and your junior sister."

Zhang Tianle smiled meaningfully: "Oh? I wonder what Auntie wants to discuss with me?"

"Oh my, this is great news! It's fantastic news!" Aunt Li said, pulling Zhang Tianle towards Liu Yiyi's ward.
