Jiuli nodded slightly to show that he understood.
Yun Yuan paused and continued, "I have some ideas about his resurrection. You go to the palace tonight, and I will go to Puling Temple."
Jiuli frowned slightly when he heard this: "Do you think Xiao Changan's resurrection is related to Puling Temple?"
Yun Yuan nodded. "He used Puling Temple to absorb a large amount of faith. I suspect these faiths have other uses. Of course, this is just my guess. We'll know after tonight."
Jiuli said: "I'll go with you."
Yun Yuan shook her head gently: "Don't worry, I will be careful. I have a high level of cultivation and many ways to protect my life. No one can hurt me. Besides, I also need someone to remind me the time of Xiao Changan's death."
She took out two gray stones from her arms and handed one to Jiuli.
"This stone is called Lingxi Stone. It comes from the same large piece of Lingxi Stone and has the same properties. If one changes color, the other will also change color. It can be used to transmit signals."
After she finished speaking, a white light emanated from her palm, and when she touched the Lingxi Stone, the gray Lingxi Stone turned into a crystal clear blue, like the finest sapphire.
Jiuli looked at the stone in his hand, which had almost turned blue at the same time, and asked curiously, "Is it enough to just transfer power into it?"
The woman nodded and said, "Yes, if you have the power to go in, there will be changes. You can try it. Once Xiao Changan dies tonight, you can send me a message and I will study the changes in the statue."
"good."
Jiuli played with the stone in his hand, changing its colors several times. Finally, he drilled a hole in the Lingxi Stone, tied it with a rope and hung it around his waist.
Yun Yuan looked at Jiuli's actions and asked, "What are you doing?"
Jiuli explained with a smile: "I think the word 'lingxi' is a good idea. This stone will be our token of love."
Yun Yuan glanced sideways slightly.
Jiuli put his arm around her waist and said softly, "When Xiao Changan's matter is resolved, I will take you back to the demon world to get married."
"Okay." Yun Yuan replied casually.
Noticing her perfunctory attitude, Jiuli narrowed his fox eyes and leaned down to kiss her.
"Ah~" Yun Yuan cried softly, her red lips sealed.
"Jiuli." With a soft call, Xuanyuan Chengyin's footsteps were getting closer and closer.
Yun Yuan pushed Jiuli away like a frightened rabbit, then jumped out of his arms and quickly tidied up her messy clothes and hair.
She raised her head and met Xuanyuan Chengyin's gaze, feeling a little embarrassed for a moment.
She laughed dryly and said, "Well...you guys chat, I won't disturb you." After saying that, she wanted to turn around and leave.
Xuanyuan Chengyin saw Yun Yuan's rosy face, eyes sparkling like spring water, lips slightly swollen, and an appearance of having been severely bullied. His eyes flickered slightly, and an imperceptible light flashed in his eyes.
When he looked at Jiuli again, the light had disappeared, and Yun Yuan turned into a white light and disappeared.
"Jiuli." Xuanyuan Chengze looked in the direction where Yun Yuan disappeared and asked, "Did Father really live thirty more years?"
"More than that." Jiuli narrowed his fox eyes slightly, a little unhappy. Thinking of the ball of light, and then comparing it with the ball of light he showed Xiao Changan, he said thoughtfully: "At least eighty years of life have been added."
Eighty! Xuanyuan Chengyin was stunned and asked nervously, "How long can I live?"
Jiuli saw that Xuanyuan Chengyin had misunderstood, and then he remembered that he had not yet told him everything, so he explained:
"The mirror Yun Yuan gave you is for reflection magic. Xiao Changan's magic didn't affect you, but rather passed through the mirror and reacted on himself. These eighty years of life were taken away from Xiao Changan himself, and have nothing to do with you."
Xuanyuan Chengyin admired the two men's wit and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It turned out that it was Xiao Changan's fault, and he had to suffer the consequences.
Jiuli leaned against the wall and said lazily, "Eighty years is too long for humans. Does His Royal Highness want to inherit the throne early?"
Xuanyuan Chengyin was stunned, then pursed his lips.
No prince wanted to be emperor, and Xuanyuan Chengyin was no exception. He lowered his voice and asked, "Do you have a solution?"
Jiuli told him: "Xiao Changan has almost drained his vitality. Tonight is his deadline. When he dies, he will draw vitality from those around him to replenish it."
Xuanyuan Chengyin thought of the twenty or so bodies lying in miserable condition on the streets of the capital, his expression solemn, "Are the deaths of those Taoists related to Xiao Changan?"
"That's right." Jiuli said, "Your Highness must be well prepared. Success or failure depends on this one move."
………～～～………
Xiao Changan returned home clutching his chest. Luo Yiman had been waiting for him for a long time. He stood up when he heard the voice: "Xiao Lang, you're back. I have something to ask you."
"What's the matter?" Xiao Changan coughed and felt that he had no strength in his body. He collapsed on the chair, gasping for breath. The sudden feeling of weakness made him at a loss.
Loiman couldn't see his condition, and his mind was filled with the news Harunobu heard from outside.
"Xiao Lang, how did you learn the method of borrowing longevity?"
Xiao Changan didn't intend to explain, but just said lightly: "You will know later."
"I want to know now." Luo Yiman said: "Xiao Lang, have you changed your mind? You don't even want to tell me about your own affairs."
Ever since Xiao Changan regained his memory, he knew each other's identities and didn't want to bother with Loiman. In his opinion, Loiman was just a maid who was infatuated with him, which was completely different from his original identity.
Due to the change in his mood in this life, he developed some affection for Loiman. Now, whenever he thought of the fact that he had worked so hard to get her, he felt a sense of frustration in his heart.
