Chapter 28
Lingxi was interrupted.
Their gazes also turned to the newcomer.
Before Lingxi and the others could guess who the visitor was, Yang Lanting, in his living soul form, cheerfully stepped forward to greet them, "Brother, you've come to see me."
Although Liu Min looked a bit haggard, she was still quite beautiful, having given birth to two such handsome sons. Her previous life of luxury was still evident.
She glanced at Lingxi first, then stopped herself from speaking as she was about to shoo her away.
He said helplessly, "Young lady, why don't you sit down and rest for a while?"
When her gaze shifted to the younger Jin Moli, her eyes lit up, and she moved even more gently, placing the fruit platter on the small table between Lingxi and Jin Moli, inviting them to eat the fruit.
"Mom, you..." Yang Lanling paused when she saw that there were still people in the ward.
Who are these people?
Liu Min looked somewhat helpless: "You child, look at how you smell. You haven't showered in days."
Yang Lanting was completely ignored, but he didn't care; he had gotten used to it over the past few days.
He gave Lingxi and the others a dismissive smirk.
Jin Moli was amused by him and burst into silent laughter.
Yang Lanling nodded in response to Liu Min, then her sharp eyes fixed on the only middle-aged person in the ward—Yun Qingzi.
Yun Qingzi looked up and met the man's gaze directly, neither humble nor arrogant, her eyes revealing composure and ease.
Instead, Yang Lanling was the first to look away. He felt something was off; this person looked young, but his eyes revealed a composure and tolerance that only those of middle or old age possess.
How could his younger brother, who hasn't even graduated yet, know such a person?
Yang Lanling then looked at Liu Min, his eyes indicating what was going on.
"They are Lanling's friends, and they came to see him."
Time is limited, so finish early and get some rest.
Lingxi said directly, "Madam Liu, it was indeed your son Lanling who invited us here."
"you……"
"Only I can save him."
Liu Min frowned. This person looked so young, yet spoke with such arrogance.
"Madam, do you know why he is unconscious and the cause cannot be found?"
Liu Min, who was anxious about this matter, naturally wanted to find out, but she still didn't quite believe that a young girl could save her son.
“His soul has left his body; if it goes on for a while longer, he may never come back.”
Lingxi spoke in a light tone, her lips slightly parted, as if she were talking about something trivial.
"What?"
Liu Min frowned, unsure whether to believe it or not.
But the little girl spoke with absolute certainty.
What if, as she said, her son really did die...
"Nonsense!" Yang Lanling frowned and sternly stopped him.
"Do you want to consider where you are, promoting feudal superstitions in front of the police?"
Seeing that her attempt to save people had backfired and she was being accused instead, Jin Moli hurriedly said, "We...we are not...liars."
Yang Lanling noticed that there were children involved and exclaimed, "You actually allowed underage children to participate!"
"no!"
Jin Moli was a little sullen.
Yun Qingzi coughed lightly and said in a deep voice, "I am a Taoist priest from Linxi Temple, not some kind of charlatan."
“What my master said is all true. The young man from Lanting really cannot be delayed.”
Yang Lanling laughed in anger. This man actually used that young woman as a shield, which was utterly ridiculous: "So there's even a Taoist priest here? In that case, you're the one who led these two girls into this line of work!"
"I advise you to return to your mission as soon as possible, so as not to harm yourselves and others."
Yang Lanling looked at the three of them, thinking, "Why do these things when you can't be good people?"
They even managed to fool him.
He tried to persuade them.
Liu Min suddenly came to her senses. She smiled bitterly, realizing that she had been desperate and had tried anything, not to mention that this was not a cure at all.
She went to the bedside and looked at her youngest son, who was lying quietly.
The little girl's words kept echoing in my mind.
"I'm afraid he'll never be able to come back."
"They're not coming back."
"They're here!"
Liu Min's eyelashes trembled slightly, and suddenly a flash of inspiration struck her: since the hospital couldn't find it for the time being, why not try other methods?
If things go wrong, she and Lanling will still be here watching.
Nothing should go wrong.
"A-Ling, let them try."
Liu Min stopped Yang Lanling from asking questions and slowly looked at Lingxi, who had been sitting steadily from beginning to end.
I didn't look at it closely just now.
Upon closer inspection, this young girl was anything but ordinary; her bearing and extraordinary appearance suggested she was no ordinary person.
Liu Min was a little confused. How come she hadn't noticed it before?
Yang Lanling said sternly, "Mom! Stop making a scene."
Lingxi grew impatient with all this, so she walked directly to Yang Lanling's side, flicked two fingers in front of his eyes, and then sat back down.
The young man felt a chill in his eyes. He paid no attention to Lingxi's sudden and strange behavior, took a step forward, and was still saying, "You all..."
"Brother, it's me!"
Having received a hint from Yun Qingzi, Yang Lanting immediately jumped up and went to his brother.
"Lanting~"
Yang Lanling's words came to an abrupt halt.
"You!" Yang Lanling blinked as she looked at her lively younger brother, then looked at Yang Lanting, who was still lying on the bed and hadn't woken up.
"Brother, it's me, your real brother, I'm not kidding you."
Yang Lanling thought he was hallucinating, but when he opened his eyes again, his brother was still jumping around in front of him.
"this……"
"What's wrong, A-Ling? What's wrong?"
Liu Min noticed that Yang Lanling's behavior was not right and asked with concern.
"Mom, I think I saw two Lanting Pavilions!"
two?
Liu Min was initially puzzled, wondering if he was seeing things, but then she remembered what Ling Xi had said.
"Is there really a living spirit residing in the Orchid Pavilion?"
Liu Min asked her son anxiously.
“Yes, Mom, it’s me, I’m right here,” Yang Lanting kept replying.
Yang Lanling suspected there was something wrong with his vision, so he closed his eyes, but Lanting's voice kept appearing in his ears.
"Brother, these are the only masters who can see me. They're the ones who can save my life. I'm counting on them."
"elder brother……"
Yang Lanting then ran to Yang Lanling's side and appeared to explain that he was not a fraudster, but rather his savior.
Yang Lanling opened her eyes, and her younger brother was still chattering away in front of her, never stopping. Her worries were almost overwhelmed, and the noise was giving her a headache.
"I see."
"You can shut up now."
Yang Lanting immediately shut up and covered his mouth with his hand, indicating that he would not speak.
Liu Min was puzzled. Should she... shut up?
How can you talk to your mother like that?
"No, no, Mom, I wasn't talking to you."
Yang Lanling touched his oily hair and realized that Liu Min couldn't see him or hear his voice, so he immediately explained that it wasn't her.
Liu Min understood immediately and didn't pursue the matter further.
The mother and son exchanged a glance, and could see what each other was thinking.
Yang Lanling didn't look at Yang Lanting. Instead, he went to stand next to Liu Min, turned his head, and stared directly at Yun Qingzi and the others with his sharp eyes.
Jin Moli accidentally met his gaze and couldn't help but shrink back.
It took a while for the symptoms to subside slightly.
Yang Lanling was not a pedantic person; what he had seen was absolutely true, and he could see at a glance what kind of person his brother was.
I just didn't know that there really are people who cultivate themselves in this world.
He stepped forward and sincerely apologized: "I'm sorry, I was very offensive just now."
When Yun Qingzi saw that Lingxi's cup was empty, he took out his thermos, which he hadn't drunk from yet, opened it, and filled it for her.
Lingxi calmly took a sip of tea, met the man's gaze, and smiled, "This means you believe what we said, and that we weren't lying to you."
"Yes, I hope you will forgive me and help my brother."
Yang Lanling was flexible and adaptable, didn't care much about saving face, and was quick to correct his mistakes.
Seeing this, Liu Min's already intentional thoughts intensified, and she immediately apologized: "It was my ignorance that led me to misunderstand the master. Please, master, save my son!"
"You don't need to say anything more. Since my master can help, he will do his best to assist. You two can rest assured."
Yun Qingzi stepped forward to speak with the two of them, and saw Ling Xi stand up.
"Quickly, you two come over here, don't block my master's ritual."
Liu Min and Yang Lanling exchanged a glance and took a few steps back.
His gaze remained firmly fixed on Lingxi and the young man on the sickbed.
Yang Lanting arrived at the bedside early, waiting for the master to speak.
The group watched as the young master simply waved her hand, and a yellow talisman appeared out of thin air in her palm.
"Get into position immediately."
As soon as the yellow talisman appeared, Lingxi immediately shouted at Yang Lanting.
Yang Lanting felt as if there was a suction force on his body, but as soon as he got close, he was sucked in.
Next, Lingxi used her true energy to help Yang Lanting adapt to his physical body and repair any discomfort.
Yang Lanling had been working tirelessly on the ritual since it began. Only when he saw Lanting successfully return to his body did he breathe a sigh of relief, rub his eyes to relieve the soreness caused by not blinking for so long.
Liu Min couldn't see anything else, but she did see the suddenly appearing yellow talisman. Her anxious heart calmed down a bit, and she could only watch all of this silently.
Waiting for Lingxi to let go and leave the hospital bed.
Liu Min leaned closer and whispered to inquire about her son's condition.
"Master, he..."
"She's awake. Go check on her."
Liu Min turned around and saw Yang Lanting being helped to sit up by Lanling, who was smiling at her.
"mom."
Her voice choked with emotion as she spoke: "Master, thank you."
The helplessness and pressure that had been weighing on her for the past few days suddenly eased.
As he walked toward the bedside, his expression lightened.
"Son, you scared your mother to death."
"Mommy, sob sob..."
Yang Lanting hugged Liu Min and wept with joy.
Lingxi took the teacup handed to her by Yun Qingzi and slowly sat down. From the start to the end, it took less than five minutes.
As she sat down, Jin Moli leaned over to look at the paper talisman she was holding in her hand.
The lines on the talisman are slightly different from the previous one.
Yun Qingzi stepped forward and took a look. "Master, how does it compare to the previous talisman?"
Lingxi swallowed the tea in her mouth and said softly, "This is clearly a high-level talisman. There's no comparison. Pick it up and feel it for yourselves."
She had secretly memorized the two talismans, and would try them out when she returned to Linxi Cave.
It is just a few lines, but when combined, they create all sorts of effects.
Lingxi was immediately tempted.
How could she be absent from such an interesting event?
Yun Qingzi was the first to pick it up. As soon as she placed the talisman in her palm, she felt a warmth.
Unfortunately, he had not yet succeeded in his cultivation and could not see any further.
Jin Moli, however, could sense how much energy was hidden within the talisman. She thought that if she were to draw this talisman, wouldn't she run out of magic power halfway through?
I couldn't help but praise it aloud:
"This... person who draws talismans... is amazing."
"Of course, I'm afraid even your master wouldn't be qualified."
Lingxi was well aware of her own limitations; with two talismans appearing in just one day, this sect was becoming increasingly complex.
If she were to face him, she probably wouldn't fare well either.
