"Never mind, you wouldn't understand these things anyway. You just want to ease your family's pain, and your intentions are good. I can understand that."
"However, there are some things I need to make clear to you. This time, your wife isn't possessed by any evil spirit. She angered the Star Lord because of her disobedience and lack of filial piety. The Star Lord's punishment goes directly to her soul. The 'medicine' we humans use only targets our physical bodies, so painkillers are useless."
Previously, when Yun Youtian and the others took Wang Shufen to town for medical treatment, Xiao Jiu went to find a suitable 'fairy' for the sake of what it had discussed with Yun Duo, and did not go to town with them. Although Yun Duo knew that they had gone to town to find a doctor, she did not know the specifics. Therefore, He Xiangu did not know that Wang Shufen had previously received a painkiller injection, which had been effective for several hours.
Yun Youtian and Yun Wansheng were one thing, but because they believed He Xiangu was a capable person, they didn't think too deeply about it. Besides, He Xiangu's words weren't absolute.
But Yun Fusheng is different.
He harbored suspicions about seeking out a sorceress, and the previous encounters with the people in the courtyard had left him somewhat displeased. Consequently, he unconsciously developed a resistance towards this "He Xiangu." Therefore, as soon as He Xiangu finished speaking, Yun Fusheng retorted indignantly, "But my mother had a painkiller injection before, and it worked very well."
Yun Youtian felt embarrassed and worried that He Xiangu would be angry, so he couldn't help but glare at Yun Fusheng. Then he looked at He Xiangu with a smile and said, "I'm sorry, Xiangu. My son is so stubborn and doesn't know what to do. He always talks nonsense. Please don't take it to heart."
The more confident a person is, the more 'generous' they become. If this had happened before, He Xiangu would have been furious long ago. But now, because she had listened to everything that strange voice had said, He Xiangu felt increasingly confident, so she was very 'generous' at this moment.
Upon hearing Yun Youtian's words, he waved his hand dismissively, saying, "It's alright, it's alright. Young people are like that, it's normal. Besides, it was my fault for not explaining myself clearly, it's not his fault."
He Xiangu paused slightly at this point, then looked at Yun Fusheng: "If I say that your mother's painkiller injection seemed to work, it was actually only because the Star Lord's punishment had a time limit. What does that mean? It means that the Star Lord's punishment doesn't make your mother suffer all day long, but rather it makes her suffer in waves. Otherwise, think about it yourself, with that kind of pain, if she were in constant, uninterrupted pain, how long could she endure it?"
“The punishment is to punish her for her mistakes, hoping that she can learn from them and correct them, so that she can change for the better and become a dutiful daughter-in-law.”
"It's not that we want to kill her. After all, if the Star Lord really wanted to kill her, he might as well just send down a bolt of lightning. So, we always give her some breathing room."
"Although the Star Lord's punishment was severe, he still left her some leeway. Otherwise, I, He Xiangu, would not have taken on this matter."
"After all, I have come to the mortal realm to reincarnate, cultivate, and undergo trials. I cannot easily go against the practices of my fellow Daoists in heaven. I can only offer advice and guidance."
