The onlookers didn't know the truth and were all moved, sighing at the young man's filial piety. Seeing that the preliminary preparations were almost complete, Xiao Changan became serious and began to perform his magic.
Yun Yuan shifted her gaze away from the water mirror. This kind of thing still had to be seen in person. She wanted to know how Xiao Changan actually operated so that she could find a way to deal with him in the future.
Xuanyuan Chengyin saw that Yun Yuan and Jiuli had disappeared from his sight in the blink of an eye. He smiled helplessly and continued to look at the water mirror.
He really wants to have the same ability as Jiuli.
Yun Yuan and Jiuli changed their appearance and appeared in the crowd, looking at Xiao Changan with burning eyes. Xiao Changan was concentrating all his energy on the method of borrowing longevity and did not notice the two approaching.
He silently chanted a spell, and a ray of light emanated from his right hand and landed on the young man. Then a green energy flew out from the young man, slowly drifted towards the old man, and merged with him.
In full view of everyone, the old man suddenly opened his eyes and sat up in shock in his dying illness.
"He's pretending to be dead!" Those who were close were startled and subconsciously stepped back.
"This isn't a fake corpse." Xiao Changan asked, "Old man, how do you feel now?"
"Very good." The old man stood up and shook his arms. "I feel full of energy. It's as if I've returned to five years ago, when I wasn't bedridden."
"This, this, this, this..." The people who witnessed the whole process couldn't believe it: "Is there really a way to borrow life in this world?"
Yun Yuan tugged at Jiuli's sleeve and said in a voice that everyone around could hear, "Dad, I also want to learn this method of borrowing lifespan. From now on, I can borrow the lifespan of anyone I want and live as long as I want."
Jiuli was suddenly called "Dad" and his fox eyes narrowed slightly.
"Dad," Yun Yuan continued, "You love me so much, you definitely won't let me borrow your life, right? If you insist on asking me to borrow my life, I... I'm afraid of death."
Those who had witnessed the miracle and were moved by the father's kindness and filial piety felt like they were poured with a bucket of cold water.
Yes, when the method of borrowing life is introduced, the equal right of human beings to own life is broken. Parents exploit their children, and the strong deprive the weak. Who knows if the next person to be deprived will not be themselves?
Jiuli's words added fuel to the fire. He said to Yun Yuan, "What are you afraid of? Just give birth to a few more children. Once the child is born, you can take away his life span. That way, you won't have a short life."
"Ridiculous!" Someone couldn't stand it any longer and shouted angrily, "Aren't you afraid that doing this will violate human ethics and end your family lineage?"
"This is simply appalling. People like you don't deserve to have a wife or offspring!"
"Where are you from? I'll have someone stay away from you. Don't jump into the fire pit."
Yun Yuan hid in the direction of Jiuli in fear, "Can't I let my child volunteer in the future?"
"What do you mean by voluntary?" The people around him grew even more furious upon hearing this. "Parents are naturally superior to their children. If they use filial piety as a threat, how can children refuse? Especially when children are still unable to be independent, do they have the ability to refuse?"
"If you ask me, this method of borrowing life shouldn't exist."
There were people coming from Qingqi City hiding in the crowd. They were one step slower than the Taoist priest of Qingqi Mountain. Seeing the miserable death of the Taoist priest of Qingqi Mountain, they guessed that it was related to Xiao Changan. They did not dare to act rashly and could only take the opportunity to fan the flames.
"Witchcraft, this is witchcraft!"
"The method of borrowing life shouldn't exist. Everyone is afraid of death. If everyone wanted to borrow life, the world would be in chaos."
Seeing the situation becoming more and more chaotic, Xiao Changan frowned. He didn't expect things to develop in this direction.
He originally had two intentions: one was to demonstrate his strength and make plans for the future.
The second is to force the prince to lend his life to the emperor. Just imagine, a poor child can take the initiative to lend his life to save his father. As the crown prince, the prince should not back down, both emotionally and logically, but should show more filial piety and benevolence.
His cold gaze passed through the crowd and fell directly on the two people who were the first to set the pace in the crowd. Finding that they were familiar faces, he gritted his teeth.
"So it was you guys who did this!"
Yun Yuan knew that she had been seen through, so she pulled Jiuli back, and Xiao Changan chased after her closely.
As the two were about to disappear, Xiao Changan shouted, "Yun Yuan, you've awakened too, haven't you?"
Yun Yuan was curious about what Xiao Changan wanted to say, so she paused and said to Jiuli, "You leave first, I'll meet him for a while."
Jiuli held her hand tightly and said, "I'll go with you."
Yun Yuan shook her head: "You leave first. I have a personal grudge against him."
Jiuli pursed his lips, his figure flashed, but he did not leave. Instead, he hid nearby. He didn't know Xiao Changan's background at the moment. In case Xiao Changan attacked Yun Yuan, he had to be close to help as soon as possible.
Yun Yuan turned around and waited for Xiao Changan to come over calmly, and asked him, "I want to know what you mean."
"Stop pretending." Xiao Changan panted a little: "If you hadn't awakened your wisdom, why didn't you act according to the destiny book?"
A destiny book? That's the plot.
Yun Yuan raised an eyebrow. "You want me to follow the destiny book, first let you get my exquisite heart, then dig out my eyes and give them to your woman, and finally use my flesh and blood to nourish your souls?"
Jiuli, hiding in the darkness, had gloomy eyes, as if covered with a layer of terrifying frost, extremely cold.
"You have indeed awakened." Xiao Changan's eyes revealed a gloomy look, and he sneered: "I didn't expect that after going through this tribulation, you would get what you wanted and be with Jiuli."
Yun Yuan's CPU was running rapidly. It turned out that the original owner in the previous life liked Jiuli, but she didn't know what their identities were.
"Come with me." Xiao Changan said, "As long as you give your eyes to Loiman, I can keep your identities secret."
