Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Start coaxing
Seeing the Tianji Lingyu completely merged with Pei Zichen's heart, Jiang Zhaoxue was filled with anger.
She grabbed Pei Zichen by the collar, and the surrounding spiritual energy suddenly fluctuated violently, as if someone had torn open a hole in the surrounding space. Anan squatted on Jiang Zhaoxue's shoulder, looked up alertly, and said anxiously: "My lady, Shen Yuqing is here!"
Jiang Zhaoxue cursed inwardly upon hearing this. After quickly cleaning up her traces at the scene, she dragged Pei Zichen into the nearby dense forest, affixed concealment runes, sealed Pei Zichen's tendons, and instructed Anan, "You lead them away, and we'll meet up at the foot of the mountain."
The hiding talisman is just invisible. If Shen Yuqing brings a lot of people with him, they will still be found if they are searched carefully.
She had to find a way to lure these disciples of the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion away first to ensure her safety.
Anan responded and flew to the opposite side of Jiang Zhaoxue. Suddenly, a crack appeared in the sky, and dozens of brilliant lights fell like meteors. After landing in the wilderness near Jiang Zhaoxue and taking a look around, Anan quickly flapped his wings and heard a woman shout coldly, "Chase!"
Jiang Zhaoxue recognized the voice as Shen Yuqing's junior sister Wen Xiaoan and couldn't help but curse inwardly.
She didn't come when I needed her earlier, so it's a good idea to pursue her now.
At Wen Xiaoan's command, all the disciples ran after Anan. Jiang Zhaoxue was about to pull Pei Zichen away when she felt two auras descend from the sky. Then a young girl's voice rang out hurriedly, "It's Brother! There's Brother's aura here!"
Upon hearing this voice, Jiang Zhaoxue gritted his teeth and could only retreat back, not daring to move.
In her previous life, she seemed to be automatically shielded from men and was particularly sensitive to women, especially those around Shen Yuqing. Therefore, as soon as she heard the voice, she recognized it as Mu Jinyue.
Now that Mu Jinyue has arrived, then...
"The barrier here is broken, and Zichen's aura is cut off here."
When Shen Yuqing's voice sounded, Jiang Zhaoxue decisively accepted his fate.
Shen Yuqing is here, and any of her movements may be noticed by him.
So she could only cut Pei Zichen's neck with a knife, hold the dagger in one hand and put it around his waist, put the dagger against his waist, cover his mouth with the other hand to prevent him from making a sudden sound, then lower her head and sip the blood flowing from the wound on his neck, listening vigilantly to the movement behind her.
The Heart Contract would sense her presence. Although Shen Yuqing had not specifically looked for her, she didn't dare to take the risk at such a close distance.
The Jade of Heavenly Secrets was the antagonist of the Contract of Unity. Now that she didn't have the Jade of Heavenly Secrets, she could only use Pei Zichen's blood to cover up the Contract of Unity.
Just by doing this, she felt the person in her arms struggle. Jiang Zhaoxue knew that Pei Zichen was about to wake up. She sensed his condition and the moment Pei Zichen opened his eyes, she hugged him tightly and immediately sent a message: "If you dare to move, I will kill you!"
The sound was accompanied by the pain of the blade scratching his skin. Pei Zichen woke up instantly, and then froze in place.
Behind him was a woman wearing a soft gauze dress. She covered his mouth with one hand and held a dagger in the other hand, which she put around his body, pressed against his waist, and sucked on his neck in small sips.
He sank completely into her arms, feeling like she was a soft snake coiling around him.
He had been a man of rites and cultivation since childhood, and had never been so close to a woman. In that instant, the pain of the dagger became unimportant. He almost exhausted all his strength to maintain some sanity, trying hard to control himself from reacting too violently. He listened to his master's words not far away: "The barrier has been repaired. Zichen must be more than one person here. There are masters here, and they are cultivators in the True Immortal Realm. Zichen's life should be safe."
"That's great." Mu Jinyue breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as Senior Brother is safe."
Pei Zichen heard these words, but he couldn't react to them. Jiang Zhaoxue, on the other hand, was worried and stared at him intently.
After setting up two formations in a row, her spiritual power had long been exhausted, so she had to use the most primitive method to forcibly restrain Pei Zichen.
But Pei Zichen woke up too early, which proved that he recovered extremely quickly after obtaining the Tianji Lingyu.
A fortune teller would have little chance of winning against a sword cultivator, even if the gap was several major realms. Moreover, at such a close distance, she had no idea how much Pei Zichen had recovered, and had no confidence in suppressing him by force.
But if she couldn't control him forcibly, Pei Zichen would go out to ask for help as soon as he heard that Shen Yuqing and Mu Jinyue were here to save him, then she would not be able to keep this person.
So she stared at the young man in her arms, anxiously waiting for his decision. However, before Pei Zichen could make a move, Shen Yuqing continued, "But don't be too happy. I just received another message from Xiao'an. It said that Gao Wen and his disciples, after escaping the barrier, accused Pei Zichen of being lured by the demonic cultivators and opening the Nine Nether Realm barrier. We'll have to wait and see how he handles it."
"impossible!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Jinyue immediately became excited: "Senior Brother, there is no way you would do such a thing."
"Let's go find him first." Shen Yuqing seemed not to want to talk about this topic, and only said, "I'm telling you so that you can be prepared. Jinyue, the immortal road is long. If you want to last long, you can't put too much emphasis on one person."
"What about Master?" Mu Jinyue immediately spoke up, unable to help herself, "Didn't Master also marry Master's Wife?"
"I'm different from her."
"What's the difference?" Mu Jinyue didn't quite understand. "Master, isn't it because you like to form bonds?"
Shen Yuqing fell silent, and Jiang Zhaoxue listened with some impatience.
When will this discussion of insignificant things ever end in a place like this?
Fortunately, Shen Yuqing obviously didn't want to say anything. After a moment of silence, he turned around and said, "Let's find someone first. I need to be back before midnight."
Jiang Zhaoxue was stunned when he heard this ugly sentence.
This is when her fire poison attacks.
What does he do when he goes back when he is ugly?
At the moment she was stunned, Shen Yuqing suddenly stopped and looked sharply in the direction of Jiang Zhaoxue.
The pressure was immediate, and Jiang Zhaoxue immediately became alert. A moment later, Shen Yuqing drew his sword, and a flash of sword light rushed forward, shouting, "Who?!"
The sword energy came with great force. Jiang Zhaoxue decisively turned over and pulled Pei Zichen in front of her. The sword light smashed down and disappeared without a trace the moment it touched Pei Zichen.
However, the impact it brought was still huge, shaking the two of them and sending them flying several feet away in an instant.
Jiang Zhaoxue hugged Pei Zichen tightly and was thrown to the ground with him. Pei Zichen bumped into her and she vomited blood.
Pei Zichen subconsciously wanted to retreat, but Jiang Zhaoxue grabbed him tightly, put the dagger to his neck again, and shouted in a low voice: "Don't move!"
Pei Zichen froze in his tracks, and could only support himself with half his arm, covering her whole body under him, and looking at her face to face.
She was still wearing a veil, but her eyes, revealed by the veil, were exceptionally beautiful. They had a tinge of blue, the same color as the tiger's eyes, and were clear and resolute, clearly indicating a person with a very stable heart.
The dagger was against his neck, and blood dripped onto her lips, staining her white veil. Pei Zichen's breathing was a little disordered, and he tried his best to restrain himself and did not move.
He understood what the woman in front of him meant.
The hiding runes were still attached to the two of them, so they still had a chance of not being discovered by his master.
This woman obviously had an old grudge with his master, and was very familiar with the Lingjian Immortal Pavilion.
The sword technique his master had just used was a secret technique used by the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion specifically for testing. If it was a disciple from the same sect, there would be no damage at all. This woman probably knew this, so she pulled him to block the sword.
The sword technique did not hit anyone, and the hidden runes concealed the breath of Pei Zichen and Jiang Zhaoxue. The entire dense forest seemed to be empty except for Shen Yuqing and Mu Jinyue.
Shen Yuqing looked at the dense forest and frowned slightly.
He didn't know what was going on, but suddenly he had an illusion, as if...
Jiang Zhaoxue is here.
But then I thought about it and it was impossible. The Heart-to-Heart Contract was the closest connection between them. If Jiang Zhaoxue was in front of him, the Heart-to-Heart Contract would definitely not have no reaction.
Moreover, if Jiang Zhaoxue were here...
There was no way she wouldn't show up.
Considering Jiang Zhaoxue's usual temper, she would probably have already started a fight by now. How could she allow him to be alone with another woman?
Shen Yuqing felt a little annoyed and helpless, but the doubt in his heart was put aside and his expression became much calmer.
Mu Jinyue observed his changing emotions and asked curiously, "Master?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yuqing turned his gaze away from Jiang Zhaoxue and said calmly, "Nothing, let's go."
Having said that, he turned and left.
Mu Jinyue glanced back in Jiang Zhaoxue's direction, but couldn't make out anything. She simply raised her hand and brushed across the damaged area of the barrier. Then, following Shen Yuqing, she asked curiously, "Master, this repaired barrier feels no different from an ordinary wall. Will it grow flowers like an ordinary wall?"
"Yes." With that, the two of them walked away in the opposite direction of Jiang Zhaoxue. Jiang Zhaoxue listened to Shen Yuqing's rare patience and said with a heavy tone, "It will reflect people's hearts and bloom the flower of greed that you desire most."
The two walked further and further away. When their aura completely disappeared, Jiang Zhaoxue kicked Pei Zichen away unexpectedly and shouted angrily: "Get out!"
Pei Zichen was kicked to the ground, and saw this moody woman holding her chest and standing up coughing.
Pei Zichen struggled to get up, looked at her, and asked tentatively: "Senior, are you okay?"
"What do you care?!"
Jiang Zhaoxue glared at him and wiped the blood from her lips. A familiar pain began to arise in her body. She was too familiar with this pain. It was the fire poison that came once a month.
Shen Yuqing's sword seemed to have triggered the fire poison to break out prematurely, so she had to get down the mountain quickly.
But now that Shen Yuqing has come to Wu Yuelin, any fluctuation of spiritual power cannot escape his detection. She cannot use spiritual power, and it will take some time for her to walk down the mountain.
Furthermore, she had to suppress Pei Zichen and not let him realize any chance of escape...
All these things came together, and Jiang Zhaoxue felt irritated. She took out her pills and ate two. After forcibly suppressing the spread of the fire poison, she shouted, "Go!"
Pei Zichen didn't say much. He just glanced at Jiang Zhaoxue, then stood up and followed Jiang Zhaoxue.
Jiang Zhaoxue dragged Pei Zichen down the mountain quickly, asking Anan as they walked, "Anan, what's going on?"
"I dumped him, but I don't know where he is." Anan seemed a little confused. "I seem to be lost, but I can see Wuyue Town at the foot of the mountain."
"Then I'll send you a message when I get to Wuyue Town. We'll meet in town."
"Okay."
After talking to Anan, Pei Zichen looked at Jiang Zhaoxue and said tentatively: "Senior."
As soon as he spoke, Jiang Zhaoxue became upset and angrily said, "Senior, am I really old?!"
Pei Zichen was silent for a moment, then changed his address to "Miss."
"Shut up!"
Jiang Zhaoxue shouted, "I don't like what you say, be quiet!"
Pei Zichen paused, not knowing how to continue.
Jiang Zhaoxue got a moment of peace and finally had the energy to start thinking about the current situation.
The Heavenly Secret Jade fell into Pei Zichen's possession. Just now, Pei Zichen was almost dead, but now he is alive and kicking. I am afraid that the Heavenly Secret Jade has consumed a lot of its power.
Now, there are only two ways to get the Tianji Lingyu.
Or, she could just kill him and cut open his heart to get the jade. This would be quick and easy, but the only drawback was that the power of the Jade would be too depleted and would need nourishment, so it would take her forever to break the covenant.
But the good thing is that if Pei Zichen is killed, there will be no risk of being strangled to death as described in the book. She will have enough time to nourish the spirit jade. It is the safest and simplest way.
Or... set up a soul-locking formation in Pei Zichen's body.
The Soul Locking Formation is an ancient formation. Anyone caught in it is no longer a human, but a vessel. The person who set the formation becomes their master. A person trapped in the Soul Locking Formation behaves like an ordinary person, but when the formation is activated, all their spiritual energy, even their life, is used to repair magical instruments. All magical instruments bound to them also become the property of the caster.
If she uses this method, she can not only obtain the perfect Tianji Lingyu, but also all of Pei Zichen's future artifacts. Pei Zichen's life will truly be a wedding dress for her.
Such a formation is against the harmony of nature, so not only is it difficult to set up, but it also requires the other party's recognition and requires the other party to voluntarily hand over his life to her.
But later everyone discovered many loopholes——
The Soul Locking Formation is essentially a contract, so the Heavenly Dao does not care whether the person set up the formation is willing or deceived. As long as he agrees to hand over his life to the person who set up the formation, even if it is a joke, the Heavenly Dao will confirm it, and the Soul Locking Formation can be set up and hidden in the other person's body.
If successful, the Soul Locking Formation would be the perfect solution.
But the problem was, Pei Zichen was the Son of Heaven, and she wasn't sure what would happen. The longer he lived, the greater the uncertainty. Furthermore, she had to ensure he grew up enough to repair the Celestial Jade. If something went wrong midway, wouldn't she be left with nothing?
Moreover, she no longer wanted to sign any binding contract with anyone. Having Shen Yuqing was enough.
But if she doesn't set up the soul-locking formation, she can only kill him.
Kill him...
Jiang Zhaoxue looked back at him. The young man had straightened his clothes without her knowing. He was dressed neatly, with a jade pendant hanging from his body. He walked behind her with a sword in hand, as if he was following her to protect her.
She looked over and he obviously had something to say, but he was in no hurry. He just waited quietly for her to speak and lift the ban on him to "shut up."
Such a gentle and considerate person is completely different from the young man in the book who decisively strangled her neck.
But he was destined to kill her.
So far, although her presence has caused a lot of disruption, nothing has changed in the big things.
The Tianji Lingyu still entered Pei Zichen's body.
Although the Nine Netherworld Realm barrier was sealed by her, Gao Wen and other disciples did not die, but Gao Wen still accused Pei Zichen of colluding with the devil cultivators and framing him.
Although the plot of Shen Yuqing and Mu Jinyue's "discovery of feelings" was ruined by her, she was not sure whether Shen Yuqing would "harm others out of jealousy" if Pei Zichen was framed a few years earlier, but at least up to this point, even if the time was different, all events were developing according to the book.
If Pei Zichen didn't die, he would most likely be the one to end his life, just as the book said.
Thinking of the Tianji Lingyu that was bound to twist and turn and crash into Pei Zichen's body, thinking of the high temperature when she ran out to frame Pei Zichen, and the pain when he strangled her neck, Jiang Zhaoxue stopped and looked at him quietly.
As the two of them sat in silence, Jiang Zhaoxue slowly made a decision. She began to calculate the strength of the person in front of her and the timing.
At this moment, the fire poison in her body was forcibly suppressed by medicine, but there was not much time left. If she used any spiritual power, it would immediately counterattack.
She needed to calm Pei Zichen down and make him leave with her.
As long as she left and spent the night, she would be able to kill a young disciple in the Jindan stage.
She stared at Pei Zichen, who seemed to be keenly aware of something and looked up at Jiang Zhaoxue.
Jiang Zhaoxue's mind quickly processed the information she had just heard, thinking about how to coax Pei Zichen, and said with a smile: "Did you hear what your master said just now?"
"Before..." Pei Zichen opened his mouth, then remembered something and said unnaturally, "Did the young lady allow me to speak?"
"sure."
Jiang Zhaoxue turned around and led him down the mountain, pretending to be relaxed and saying, "I was just a little upset just now, please don't be offended. You and I have also been through life and death together, so we have some affection for each other. There's no need to be so formal."
Jiang Zhaoxue turned around and looked at him, then asked again, "Were you awake when your master spoke?"
Pei Zichen listened, and seemed to remember something. His ears felt slightly hot, and he pretended to be calm and said, "I heard it."
"So what do you think?" Jiang Zhaoxue asked with concern, as if chatting casually. "Do you still want to go back? You have to think it over carefully. Gao Wen is the uncle of Shen Yuqing's junior sister Wen Xiaoan. Wen Xiaoan and Shen Yuqing grew up together. He is Shen Yuqing's only remaining peer and the deputy leader of the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion. They have a special bond. Now Gao Wen has accused you of opening the Nine Nether Realm barrier. Whether it was you or not, you have to bear the blame. Going back will only lead to death. You shouldn't be so stupid, right?"
As Jiang Zhaoxue spoke, he felt that the medicine was not able to suppress the fire poison.
But before she was sure of Pei Zichen's situation, she couldn't show any weakness.
She endured the fire poison and pretended to be relaxed: "You are following me now, are you planning to follow me?"
"Is the girl a fortune teller?"
Pei Zichen asked this question inexplicably, and Jiang Zhaoxue became alert instantly.
"Why are you asking that?" Jiang Zhaoxue joked, "You're not trying to find out my strength, thinking that because I'm a fortune teller, you can take advantage of me, right?"
"The girl has a grudge against the master?"
Pei Zichen continued to ask, and Jiang Zhaoxue felt uneasy.
The slight contact just now had made him realize that she was related to Shen Yuqing. She suppressed the fire poison, turned her back to Pei Zichen, and said in a relaxed tone: "Why do you think so? It's just that I have some sect connections and I need to avoid the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion."
"That……"
Pei Zichen's tone was a little hesitant, but after a moment's hesitation, he finally asked, "Miss, was that the Poison Elimination Pill you just ate?"
Hearing this, Jiang Zhaoxue's heart trembled. The few remaining blasting talismans slipped silently from her hands. The fire poison in her veins became more and more intense. She tried her best to suppress the strange feeling and walked ahead, saying with a smile, "Why are you asking this, young friend?"
"The Poison Elimination Pill is an antidote that can only be refined by a seventh-level pharmacist. It's not something that ordinary people can obtain. If it were an ordinary poison, one Poison Elimination Pill would have cleared it up long ago." Pei Zichen observed her, frowning slightly, and analyzed carefully. "But the young lady has taken two pills, and now her steps are getting weaker and weaker. There is no sign of improvement."
Jiang Zhaoxue didn't say anything.
He analyzed every word correctly, which caused her severe anxiety.
She unconsciously quickened her pace, but Pei Zichen remained calm and continued to analyze, "The young lady has profound cultivation, possesses extraordinary magical treasures, and is also an old friend of my master. She must be no ordinary person. Now that she is seriously injured, she should be taken care of as soon as possible. If you don't mind..."
Before she could finish her words, Jiang Zhaoxue tripped and fell forward uncontrollably. Just as she was about to hit the ground, a hand suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Jiang Zhaoxue's pupils shrank sharply, and the dagger in his sleeve suddenly rose up, slashing fiercely from bottom to top in a crescent arc, accompanied by a fierce shout: "Get out!"
The knife made the oncoming person retreat, and Jiang Zhaoxue immediately stepped back, creating some distance between them.
The two stood in the woods, staring at each other. Pei Zichen looked at her with some surprise. Jiang Zhaoxue panted rapidly, staring at him intently, and said coldly, "Even if I'm ill, I'm more than capable of killing you. Don't seek death."
Pei Zichen didn't speak immediately. He looked at Jiang Zhaoxue with worry. After a moment of contemplation, he sighed. Under Jiang Zhaoxue's watchful gaze, he raised his hand to straighten his jade crown, smoothed the wrinkles of his clothes, and adjusted the jade pendant at his waist. Then he walked in front of Jiang Zhaoxue, turned around, knelt on one knee, half-crouched down, exposing his entire back to Jiang Zhaoxue, and said with a bit of restraint: "Let me carry you down the mountain."
This action stunned Jiang Zhaoxue. She was a little confused about Pei Zichen's intention.
She was a complete stranger, and he hadn't responded to her provocations for a long time, clearly not believing her. He could see that she had a grudge against Shen Yuqing, and that she had health problems. Under these circumstances, why didn't he seize the opportunity to take her back to the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion for interrogation, or run away, but instead carried her down the mountain?
"you……"
Jiang Zhaoxue opened his mouth in confusion and just uttered the word "you" when suddenly some noise came from a distance.
Jiang Zhaoxue subconsciously turned around, and at that moment, Pei Zichen suddenly reached out and pulled her onto his back. He stood up with her on his back and said, "Girl, hold on tight. Sorry for the inconvenience."
The moment the voice fell, he had already run out with her on his back. Then Jiang Zhaoxue heard the voice of the disciples of the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion: "Is there anyone over there?"
These words startled Jiang Zhaoxue and forced her into silence. Pei Zichen had obviously noticed the sound long ago. He glanced at the direction of the sound, took out a thunder bomb from his arms, and threw it into the distance.
He had amazing arm strength and could throw the thunder bomb extremely far. After it hit the ground and exploded, it quickly attracted the disciples of the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion.
He took the opportunity to run away, and Jiang Zhaoxue lay on him. The fire poison finally surged up completely, and all his meridians began to burn with pain.
Jiang Zhaoxue couldn't help but grab Pei Zichen's clothes and gritted her teeth without saying a word.
Pei Zichen was carrying her on his back, still injured, but he ran very fast, as if he knew what she was thinking. He didn't use any spiritual power, and even listened carefully to all directions, deliberately avoiding the search of the surrounding disciples of Lingjian Xian Pavilion.
After running all the way out of the forest, Jiang Zhaoxue finally burst out and said breathlessly: "What do you mean? You want to come with me?"
"I'll take the girl down the mountain."
Pei Zichen said firmly.
Jiang Zhaoxue frowned when she heard this. She couldn't understand why and just asked, "Why? You want to escape, right? You want to go with me?"
"I'll take the girl down the mountain."
Pei Zichen spoke again, but did not answer her directly.
"I'm asking you a question!"
Jiang Zhaoxue grabbed his collar and moved in front of him.
Perhaps because of the injury, the fire poison was very fierce this time. Cold sweat dripped from her forehead, fell into his clothes, and slid down his neck.
Pei Zichen's expression changed slightly, and he didn't dare to look back.
Jiang Zhaoxue panted softly, and with her limited rationality, she swallowed hard and persuaded him, "You saved me, I'm grateful to you. Come with me, I will definitely not treat you unfairly. They are not here to find you."
She spoke with difficulty, analyzing the situation for Pei Zichen: "Opening the Nine Netherworld barrier is no small matter. The Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion will definitely investigate this matter. You opened the Nine Netherworld barrier because Gao Wen was deceived by an illusion and violated the sect's rules by removing an object from the wall. At the time, only the people from Luoxia Peak opposed this. If you tell the truth, everyone from Lanyue Peak will be punished. But everyone from Luoxia Peak, except you and Gu Jinglan, is dead. Everyone will testify for Gao Wen, and you won't be able to explain yourself!"
Hearing this, Pei Zichen tightened his grip, as if trying to suppress some emotion.
When Jiang Zhaoxue was persuaded by her, she felt the first wave of fire poison coming like a tide. She twitched all over and grabbed Pei Zichen's clothes tightly.
Pei Zichen glanced at her, frowned, quickened his pace, and said quickly: "Miss, do you have any medicine to use?"
medicine?
What medicine?
If there was medicine, would she still be able to suffer from this fire poison every month?!
Jiang Zhaoxue gritted her teeth and ignored Pei Zichen. She was afraid that she might fall into a coma at any time. She had to make sure Pei Zichen left with her before she fell into a coma.
Only if Pei Zichen leaves the Lingjian Immortal Pavilion will she have a chance to obtain the Tianji Lingyu.
She quickly analyzed the situation for him and began to paint a rosy picture: "I am from a famous and powerful sect. You are extremely talented and you saved me. I will devote all my strength to cultivating you. It would be a pity if you were buried in the Spirit Sword Immortal Pavilion unjustly. Come with me!" Jiang Zhaoxue pinched his shoulders and shouted through gritted teeth: "I can protect you!"
Pei Zichen didn't respond. Jiang Zhaoxue said hurriedly, "Did you hear that? If you promise to follow me and listen to me, I'll protect your life!"
Pei Zichen remained silent. Jiang Zhaoxue began to tremble, confirming over and over again: "Speak! Speak!"
Hearing Jiang Zhaoxue's agitation, Pei Zichen also knew that she was uneasy. He finally turned to look at her and said seriously, "Don't worry, young lady. I will go down the mountain with you."
As soon as these words came out, for some reason, even though she knew that he would be a bastard who betrayed his teachers and ancestors in the future, she felt relieved.
Her consciousness began to blur. She leaned on Pei Zichen's shoulder, comforting him and whispering, "Pei Zichen, don't worry, I won't treat you unfairly..."
"Listen to me..." Jiang Zhaoxue said, her voice becoming increasingly unclear, and she even began to babble, "I... I can... spare your life..."
The author has something to say:

The update time will not be too stable in the past few days
【Small Theater】
Jiang Zhaoxue: "Xiao Pei, you have done me a favor. I am very rich. If you follow me, I will definitely give you a super bright future and hand over the entire Penglai Island to you!"
Pei Zichen: "What do you want to trick me into doing?"
Jiang Zhaoxue: "Digging out organs... No! I'm wrong. I want to get your heart."
Pei Zichen: "My heart?"
Jiang Zhaoxue: "That's right!"
Pei Zichen: "Then you can take it away."
Jiang Zhaoxue: "Ah? So easy to talk to? I mean the physics kind."
Pei Zichen: "Yes. From the moment you get the heart, you can get it both physically and psychologically."
Jiang Zhaoxue: "...Fuck, I hate the Holy Father the most in my life!!"
Xiaoxue's training as a fortune teller requires a relatively detached approach; otherwise, knowing everyone's life, aging, illness, and death, and being unable to interfere, would be incredibly painful. She is both sensible and gentle, though her expressions are reserved, a fact we'll slowly uncover later in the story.
Xiaoxue's personality is like an onion, you have to peel it layer by layer.
