Guo Jia sighed and explained, "Originally, someone was supposed to stay here to keep an eye on things, but Xiao Xin's mother has already hurt quite a few people in her current state, so no one wants to come anymore."
Xi Bo's gaze fell on Xiao Xin, his pupils contracted, but he quickly regained his composure.
“In that case, let’s put our things down and leave. There’s nothing we can do about her condition now. If Xiao Xin’s mother wakes up and starts hitting us again, we’ll have nowhere to hide.”
Lu Qingyan naturally followed Xi Bo's lead, and Guo Jia didn't object when she heard this: "I had heard before that their situation wasn't good, but I really didn't expect it to actually be like this. It looks much more serious than others said. Let's come over when she's feeling a bit better!"
On the way back, Guo Jia took a different route from them, and Xi Bo and Lu Qingyan talked about Xiao Xin's situation.
“I knew before that someone here was using evil magic to try and alter their fate. I was worried that you might run into trouble here alone, and since I wasn’t by your side, I wanted to force you to learn some things so you could protect yourself.” Xi Bo squeezed Lu Qingyan’s hand: “You’re fine now, but Xiao Xin has been cursed, which is why she’s so unlucky. If the curse on her isn’t lifted, she’ll never wake up again.”
"Are you telling me this because you've already decided to save her?" Lu Qingyan asked.
Xi Bo said anxiously, "If you don't want me to save him, I can choose not to."
Lu Qingyan shook her head: "If this is your mission, why would I stop you? She has already received her due punishment, why should I bother with her?" I'm just curious why you can still become a savior-like figure in this world. I always thought that someone like you would only care about living a carefree life and wouldn't care about these kinds of things.
“Those who cultivate themselves all talk about cause and effect, but I have never believed in it. Until I met you, I thought—I want to meet you in this life and the next.” Xi Bo reached out and touched Lu Qingyan’s fluffy hair: “Although Xiao Xin is not a good person, if I can help her resolve this cause and effect, it will be a good deed for me.”
"What do you need to prepare?" Lu Qingyan asked him, wondering if they should buy some cinnabar talismans or similar items for the family.
Xi Bo chuckled and said, "No need to exaggerate. I just helped her break free. Spellcasting doesn't necessarily require those things; they're just aids. With my current abilities, I don't need them."
"That amazing?" Lu Qingyan bit her lower lip. Someone's abilities were too great; she felt pressured too!
Guo Jia didn't get a second chance to visit Xiao Xin, because Xiao Xin woke up shortly after they left.
First of all, Xiao Xin is also her father's daughter, and he can't really abandon her. Secondly, he already has a son, and having this daughter as an added bonus could be used for marriage alliances.
With this in mind, Xiao Xin was taken away by her father, while her mother was sent to a local mental hospital and locked up. Xiao Xin never came back to see her again.
After learning this news from Guo Jia, Lu Qingyan asked Xi Bo, "Do you regret saving her now?"
Many people who have faced life and death become more sentimental and change their bad habits. But Xiao Xin seems to have become more afraid of death and more vain.
