"I never thought she would end up like this. She used to be such a good kid!"
The old lady sighed again.
Xiao Rongchen quickly spoke to comfort him: "Everyone has their own destiny, we just need to live our own lives well."
At the same time, he also sighed in his heart, fortunately he had been changed. Otherwise, with Xiao Yuruo's personality and character, let alone going to the Ancient Martial Realm, he probably wouldn't even know where it was. How could he possibly help the Soul Devouring Sect?
"Okay, let's not talk about her anymore. Ranran, didn't you say last time that you wanted Xiaoluo to help look after Xiaojiang? We still have time, why don't you go and see her together! Xiaojiang looks worse and worse!"
Xiao Qingran nodded and looked at Luo Jiuyan: "Come on, I'll take you over to see her now. Maybe her condition has gotten worse again."
Xiao Qingran was also helpless.
This kind of divine punishment is probably not something that can be solved by human power.
However, Xiao Qingran still believed in Luo Jiuyan's medical skills.
Even if it cannot be cured, suppressing the recurrence will be considered as helping Jiang Xin.
When the two saw Jiang Xin, Xiao Qingran found that Jiang Xin's face was so pale that it was almost transparent. She couldn't help but be shocked.
"Why did it suddenly become so serious?"
How long has it been?
Jiang Xin smiled bitterly, "Palace Master, let me be honest. For people like us who reveal secrets, the more crowded we are, the more severe the backlash will be."
Xiao Qingran didn't expect this to happen and suddenly didn't know what to say.
She thought that bringing Jiang Xin out for treatment was for her own good, but she didn't know that bringing her out would only make her backlash worse.
If Luo Jiuyan had no way to suppress her backlash.
Doesn't that mean she was the one who harmed Jiang Xin?
"Let me help you take a look."
Luo Jiuyan reached out to feel Jiang Xin's pulse.
Jiang Xin no longer has any hope.
Her backlash is not a disease and ordinary doctors cannot cure it at all.
"Palace Master, if all else fails, please have Liusha send me back to the palace! As long as I keep my mind pure and don't go out to tell fortunes, I can still hang on and live for another four or five years."
"Is there really no way? I don't believe it."
Jiang Xin shook his head: "Otherwise, our Xuanmen wouldn't have declined to the point where there are only a few people left."
Xiao Qingran didn't believe Jiang Xin really only had four or five years to live. Just as she was about to open her third eye to see the rest of her life, she heard Luo Jiuyan suddenly say, "I can let you live another twenty years. With so many years, can't you reach the Grandmaster level?"
Xiao Qingran and Jiang Xin looked at Luo Jiuyan in shock.
"Do you have a solution?"
Xiao Qingran's heart was filled with excitement. She knew that Luo Jiuyan's medical skills were not just for show.
Jiang Xin couldn't believe it and stared at Luo Jiuyan blankly. She wanted to hear Luo Jiuyan's confirmation again.
"Doesn't the Soul Devouring Sect have a technique that can block the secrets of heaven?"
Xiao Qingran nodded and looked at Luo Jiuyan in confusion.
Is she going to use her method of rebirth to save Jiang Xin?
Can this method be used on living people?
"Use the substitute talisman to transfer her energy to the substitute, and then use the magic to block the heavenly secrets on the substitute."
Luo Jiuyan explained with a smile.
This method has absolutely no risk for Xiao Qingran now.
"However, high-level talismans like the Substitute Talisman have long been lost."
The previous generation of sect leaders never drew it.
Jiang Xin's eyes, which had once been bright, now dimmed. She no longer held out any hope for her illness.
"You must have confidence in your current Palace Master. Didn't Master Zhou tell you that Ranran learned all the talismans after accepting the inheritance?"
Luo Jiuyan shook his head helplessly. His daughter Ran'er was too low-key.
"What? Is this true? Why didn't Master Zhou say anything?"
Jiang Xin felt his heart suddenly start beating wildly.
Worrying is fake, but hoping is real.
Who doesn’t want to live a few more years?
It's better to have hope than to wait for death.
"I'll draw a substitute talisman now and let you take a look at it first."
Xiao Qingran shook his head helplessly.
She knew that no matter how much she said, it would not be as good as letting Jiang Xin truly see hope.
It's like someone who has been in the desert for too long and hears someone say there is water ahead, but no matter how far they go, they never see any water.
At this point, if someone still claims there is water ahead, no one will believe them unless they can produce proof of water.
Xiao Qingran just wanted to prove to Jiang Xin that she did not lie to her.
Soon, the three of them arrived at Xiao Qingran's room.
Xiao Qingran took out the cut talisman paper, picked up the cinnabar pen, and started drawing directly on the talisman paper.
Jiang Xin suddenly felt the rumble of thunder. The Palace Master had drawn the talisman without even washing his hands, bathing, or burning incense. Just like that...
Jiang Xin opened his mouth, looked at how seriously Xiao Qingran was painting, then closed his mouth silently and sighed deeply in his heart.
Is this the difference between a genius and an ordinary person?
Just a few seconds after Jiang Xin sighed, he saw Xiao Qingran put down the cinnabar pen and stood up.
Jiang Xin: "..."
Is the Palace Master kidding?
Were you not drawing talismans just now? You were trying to get a feel for it. Haven't you started yet?
However, just when Jiang Xin was complaining in her heart, she saw Xiao Qingran holding a drawn talisman and placing it in her hand.
"Okay, this is the substitute talisman. Tell me when you want to use it, and I'll use the Soul Devouring Sect's magic to help you shield the secrets of heaven."
Jiang Xin stared at the talisman in his hand for a long time, unable to recover.
This, is it finished now?
So fast?
It feels like a dream.
Looking at the talisman pattern in her hand, which was different from the ones she had seen before, Jiang Xin was a little dazed.
She believed in Xiao Qingran, but Xiao Qingran drew so quickly, like a doodle. This made Jiang Xin feel uneasy.
It was her own fault that she had never seen a substitute talisman before, so she had no idea if the one in her hand was the real one. Or was it that this talisman was just something Xiao Qingran used to comfort her? In fact, her illness was incurable?
She knew Xiao Qingran meant well.
But she could no longer bear the disappointment after repeated expectations.
"Palace Master, can I do it now? I want it now."
Jiang Xin spoke a little embarrassedly.
If everything is a dream, she hopes to wake up soon.
If Xiao Qingran lied to her about everything, then she should expose the scam as soon as possible.
She would not blame Xiao Qingran, she understood that Xiao Qingran was doing it for her own good.
But she didn't want to deceive herself.
"Okay, I'll get you a cushion. Sit cross-legged on it and regulate your breathing first. Put yourself in the best state and relax your body."
Xiao Qingran knew that Jiang Xin's health was getting worse day by day. Since the talisman had been drawn, it would be better to do it today than to wait for another day.
Xiao Qingran glanced at Luo Jiuyan and pointed towards the door: "Go wait outside first!"
There are three types of techniques to block the secrets of heaven: large, medium and small.
For someone like Jiang Xin, having a substitute is a minor issue. However, it is very complex and cannot be interfered with by any external factors, otherwise the effort will fail. Not only the target of the spell, but also the person casting the spell will suffer the backlash.
In more serious cases, the target of the spell may even die.
