They ripped off Jiang Chengxi terribly over a meal.
Jiang Chengxi was not unhappy about this; on the contrary, he seemed quite happy.
after all……
Finally, there's a time when I can spend money.
Normally, we might not be able to spend a single penny.
We also have to thank Lu Shiyan.
Chang Xin had other things to do, so she left after finishing her meal.
Gong Yu then dragged the struggling Fu Ying away.
Lu Shiyan glanced at Jiang Chengxi and asked in a cool tone, "What? The welcome banquet is over, isn't President Jiang leaving yet?"
Jiang Chengxi: "..."
This speed of discarding the donkey after it has served its purpose is a bit too fast.
However, seeing that Jiang Li didn't try to stop him, Jiang Chengxi could only leave dejectedly.
After Jiang Chengxi left, Jiang Li looked at Lu Shiyan speechlessly, "Ayan, isn't it a bit unfair of you to bully him like that?"
“This is a matter of mutual consent, so what’s wrong with it?” Lu Shiyan said matter-of-factly. Just as he was about to say something more, his expression suddenly changed, and he fainted.
"Ayan, I only said one sentence, you don't have to pretend to faint with me, do you?" Jiang Li realized something was wrong as soon as she said it. She quickly caught Lu Shiyan as he fell and called out anxiously, "Ayan! Ayan!!!"
Jiang Li was extremely flustered. She turned to Lu Jiming, who was standing to the side, and said, "I'll go back with Ayan first. You can take your time and figure things out yourself."
After saying that, Jiang Li, carrying Lu Shiyan, disappeared from Lu Jiming's sight.
Lu Jiming: "..."
This level of skill...
Even if he studies for a few more years, he still won't catch up.
Jiang Li and Lu Shiyan returned home quickly.
Holding the soul-repairing artifact that she had set aside, Jiang Li quickly went to the underworld.
When Yama saw Jiang Li approaching, he said with some dissatisfaction, "I thought you weren't coming back after I lent you this soul-repairing artifact."
Jiang Li had no time to pay attention to Yama's teasing. She first put Lu Shiyan on a chair to the side, and then returned the soul-repairing artifact to Yama.
Finally, he said, "Your Majesty, please take a look at Ayan and see what's wrong with him?"
"What?" Yama's pupils contracted slightly when he saw Lu Shiyan's appearance, then he looked puzzled. "Did he fail to repair his soul using the soul-repairing artifact?"
“No.” Jiang Li shook her head and immediately explained Lu Shiyan’s situation. “It’s like this, although the Soul-Repairing Artifact was progressing very slowly, it took him two years to finally wake up. But… he’s only been awake for a few hours, and he’s fallen into a coma again…”
Upon hearing this, Yama looked quite helpless. "The person had been in a coma for three years before finally waking up. It's normal that he couldn't cope with such a high level of mental exertion and would faint again..."
As he spoke, Yama went over to check on Lu Shiyan's condition.
But soon...
His expression changed drastically.
this……
Yama didn't speak. He immediately picked up the soul-repairing artifact and used it on Lu Shiyan again.
This person's soul was never fully restored!
But……
Without the missing information, how exactly did he wake up?
The King of Hell was completely baffled by this.
Jiang Li had no idea what the King of Hell was thinking, and could only stare blankly at his actions.
Soon, Yama cast a spell on the soul-repairing artifact again.
The next second...
The Soul-Repairing Artifact suddenly released a burst of intense light, and a wisp of golden light within it quickly coiled around Lu Shiyan's soul.
Yama:"!!!"
Before the King of Hell could intervene, the golden light completely entered Lu Shiyan's body.
Yama:"……"
Seeing that Yama suddenly became listless, Jiang Li had a bad feeling. "Your Majesty, what just happened? What's wrong with Ayan... what's Ayan's condition now?"
"He's perfectly fine now!" Yama replied irritably. "It's me who's not doing well now!"
Jiang Li: "???"
What does that mean?
After remaining silent for a while, Yama finally told Jiang Li what had happened.
"His soul wasn't fully repaired before he woke up," Yama explained simply to Jiang Li. "As for why he woke up before his soul was fully repaired, I don't know. So I immediately used the soul-repairing artifact on him, hoping to restore the last bit of his soul, but..."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Li immediately became serious.
Because she knew...
What Yama said next was the key point of the conversation.
"I've collected souls over thousands of years, souls sealed in a corner of the soul-repairing artifact..." Yama's voice trembled as he spoke, "...just now..."
"Just now..."
Before the King of Hell could finish speaking, Jiang Li already knew what had happened.
If her guess was correct, that golden light was indeed the souls collected by Yama, and those souls are now...
It entered Ayan's body.
This is...
Jiang Li looked at the King of Hell with a tense expression, "So, is it time to separate that wisp of soul from Ayan's body?"
Yama nodded solemnly, "This is the only way now."
"What about Ah Yan..."
"Just leave him here for now," Yama said in a deep voice. "I will handle this matter properly, but separating the soul cannot be done all at once, so... I will let you know when I have finished."
“How about…” Jiang Li was a little worried about Lu Shiyan’s situation, “I’ll stay with him?”
"What? You still don't trust me?" Yama glared at Jiang Li.
Jiang Li immediately shook her head, "No...no...I'm just a little worried because I'm not by Ayan's side."
"Don't worry about that. No matter what, I won't let him die here." Yama said, then revealed a meaningful expression. "And I guarantee that when you come back, I will return you a lively and healthy man."
“No need for them to be lively and energetic.” Jiang Li’s lips twitched involuntarily. “As long as they are awake and alive, that’s fine.”
"Then it's settled."
"good."
After Jiang Li responded, she was escorted away by the King of Hell.
Jiang Li knew that Yama was definitely anxious about this matter, and that soul stripping was no simple task. However, since he had promised her, Jiang Li naturally trusted him.
So Jiang Li didn't hesitate for long before leaving the underworld.
After Jiang Li left...
Only then did Yama reveal an excited expression.
I've waited so long...
He finally got what he'd been waiting for.
Although it's somewhat unethical to do this, it can carry his soul...
That's his good fortune.
After all, for a mortal to bear the soul of a god and bring the god back to life is a wonderful thing that no one else can even dream of.
Jiang Li was unaware of the King of Hell's plans and was focused on waiting for him to inform her so that she would see a perfectly intact Lu Shiyan. For a moment, she was in a good mood.
However, when she saw Lu Jiming's miserable face, her good mood vanished instantly.
"Don't look so sad, Ayan is still alive."
Lu Jiming looked very sad. "He's still alive, so... will he wake up?"
After all, being alive and waking up are two completely different concepts.
