Saying that it was ineffective was just a euphemism Xu Xu found for himself in extreme panic.
In fact, it simply disappeared out of thin air.
The kind of complete disappearance where no trace can be detected.
Clean, as if it had never been there.
Xu Xu only now remembered that that was her only superpower. She could not accept the reality that her superpower had disappeared, and in panic she blamed all the bad consequences on Bai Yuzhi.
"What on earth have you done to me!?"
The tone and wording made it seem as if she was the victim.
Bai Yuzhi just thought she was funny: "What did I do to you? I didn't do anything except cut off a piece of your flesh to take my jade pendant."
"You didn't do anything, how could my ability...!"
Xu Xu stopped talking midway.
The sudden peeling feeling when the tattoo was being cut off gave Xu Xu a creepy guess.
Bai Yuzhi looked at her expression and knew that Xu Xu had also guessed the despairing possibility.
Bai Yuzhi teased Xu Xu like a bird, seemingly with good intentions, but in fact, every word was hurtful, and every word was pushing Xu Xu to the edge of mental breakdown.
"Tell me, if the tattoo disappears and the supernatural power disappears as well, how much of a coincidence would it take for there to be absolutely no connection between them?"
In Bai Yuzhi's hand, he still held the beauty thorn that he had used to gouge Xu Xu. The dirty bloodstains on it had been wiped away by Ren Gui, and now it had become a handy object to play with.
Xu Xu covered his ears with his blood-stained palms and screamed in despair, "Shut up! I don't want to hear it!"
But Bai Yuzhi would not allow her to disobey.
She instilled this cruel truth into Xu Xu's mind word by word.
"So, even this water-based ability you looked down upon wasn't supposed to be yours in the first place," Bai Yuzhi forced Xu Xu to look him in the eye. "So, I, the one you've always looked down upon, was actually the one with the ability, and the worthless person you keep talking about was none other than you."
Not only that, Xu Xu also heard the Taoist priest's argument and knew that the jade pendant actually contained precious purifying power. However, after she became the owner of the jade pendant, the purifying power was even unwilling to show up.
But it was clear that as long as Yu Zhi was a little more active, a ball of silver light would emerge like a young swallow flying into the forest.
It turned out that after being reborn, she had to face the fact that she was the biggest joke in the world. Such a blow even came when she thought she was in great shape.
How could Xu Xu accept her condescending attitude towards the original owner, when she had the power of life and death?
Xu Xu went crazy. No matter what the Taoist said to her, she would not speak. She would just lie on the ground and yell, or kneel down in a twisted posture towards the void.
The so-called life gate does not refer to Xu Xu, but the jade pendant that gives Xu Xu the opportunity to be reborn.
This was calculated by the Taoist priest.
"Originally, I was puzzled as to why she had such an extraordinary opportunity. It turned out that she had robbed it. I think the key lies in the jade pendant of the female lay Buddhist."
Bai Yuzhi looked at the Taoist priest and touched the small lotus in the center of her forehead.
"How do I use this life gate?"
The professionals are here, so there is no need to waste time on white jade.
But she was disappointed. This Taoist priest was not always reliable.
"The Gate of Life actually recognized its master. This is something I have never seen before. How can I make it open on its own? It may not be that simple."
The Taoist priest carefully recalled the entire scene after the silver light appeared, and finally came up with something useful.
"Do you two still remember the moment when the silver light appeared and split into two?"
Indeed, although the silver light went straight to the white jade when it appeared, when it came into contact with the metal materialized by Ren Gui's supernatural power, even though it looked very split into only a small part, it could barely be said to be split into two.
The two parts merged into Bai Yuzhi and Ren Gui's bodies respectively, and then a magical purification effect appeared.
It was very obvious on Ren Gui's body, but Bai Yuzhi felt as if he didn't feel anything.
The Taoist priest continued, "Originally, this thing should have only recognized the female lay Buddhist as its master. However, after such a long period of time, its power may have changed a little. After all, Xu Xu's water-based ability was also generated by the jade pendant. Although I don't know why, from the final result, it seems to have recognized Lay Buddhist Ren as well."
What he said made sense, but Bai Yuzhi felt that there might be other reasons for the split into two.
For example, because she is pregnant now.
The child is the proof of the bloodline between her and Ren Gui. If this purifying power is really spiritual, perhaps it is because it sensed the fusion between its master and other people, which resulted in the split into two.
This also explains why he recognized two masters but was so partial to one over the other. On her body, it openly showed a lotus pattern, while on Ren Gui's body, it was just a simple small dot.
Because after all, it still values the white jade the most, and only gave Ren Gui that small bit for the sake of the child.
But Bai Yuzhi did not express her guess, because logically speaking, she should not know that she was pregnant now.
This matter should be exposed. Bai Yuzhi wanted to speak it out through the Taoist priest's mouth.
So she deliberately induced him in this direction.
"According to what the Taoist priest said, could it be that if we two unite, the door to life will be opened?"
"This, this!" Is this something you can say?
The Taoist priest had lived for who knows how many years, but this was the first time he had seen someone talk about the way of combining yin and yang in front of him, a Taoist priest. He smiled bitterly and said, "Female lay Buddhist, you are really not particular about trivial matters."
Ren Gui also chuckled.
Bai Yuzhi knew they had all misunderstood, but it didn't matter: "Well, what do you think, Taoist Priest?"
The Taoist thought for a moment, and felt that Bai Yuzhi's words hit the nail on the head.
If the gate of life suddenly splits into two, it is definitely impossible to open it in an incomplete way. Only by allowing it to split into two and then merge into one, may there be a chance.
However, if we ask Bai Yuzhi and Ren Gui to combine yin and yang, it is not a difficult task. The Taoist priest always feels that things will not be that simple.
To become one, to combine...
The Taoist priest suddenly said, "I have a guess, maybe it's feasible!"
Ren Gui was most annoyed by the Taoist priest's long and mysterious chatter. Even though he felt much better now because of the nourishment of the purifying power, because Bai Yuzhi was not in his arms, Ren Gui always felt empty in his arms and was extremely anxious.
"If you have something to say, say it now!"
The Taoist priest's eyes sparkled: "If this man and woman want to get together, the best way is to give birth to a child with both of their bloodlines!"
