The old master set the time for the ritual at 9 PM.
This is not simply about treating illness; it involves the formation of a battle array.
Xiao Xi naturally wanted to go and see, since she had an acre of black orchids planted in her mind's eye, and she had to learn how to do it.
Xiaoxi took out two black orchids.
Lady Shangyi and Li Heng sat down in the middle.
Before the operation, the old master said regretfully, "If only there were one more person, the success rate of the formation would be greater with three people."
Huh? Xiaoxi was dumbfounded.
Then, seeing the old celestial master raise an eyebrow and glance at her, Xiao Xi understood.
Ye Xingxian and King Chujiang were astonished; this old celestial master was far too casual.
With the hour of Hai (9-11 PM) fast approaching, Xiaoxi suddenly had a brilliant idea.
"Please, Your Majesty, take a seat in the middle. I happen to have one last black orchid here. Your Majesty is not without offspring, so this will help improve your health."
The issue of having offspring hit King Chujiang right where it hurts. As expected of Princess Xi, whom he personally appointed, she was even willing to give him her last piece of black orchid.
King Chujiang was not without gratitude; he remembered this kindness.
The old master gave Xiaoxi a meaningful look. This girl knew I was going to do her a favor.
This formation works whether there are one or three of them.
In the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, the three black orchids transformed into a light ink-colored medicinal mist that slowly seeped into the three people within the formation.
Xiaoxi stayed by his side, learning how the old master operated and finished his rituals.
"Alright, they are fine now."
The three people on the middle cushion all looked rosier than before.
Xiao Xi and Ye Xingchen both looked at Madam Shangyi.
Lady Shangyi, no, now it should be Liang Wanyi, looked at herself in ancient costume with some surprise.
Then she saw a familiar face.
Liang Wanyi reached out her hand in surprise, "Xingxian, you've grown up so much? Mom hasn't seen you in so many years."
Ye Xingxian stepped forward to help Liang Wanyi up, also deeply moved, "Mother."
Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, and her mother's memories returned.
She immediately rushed over, crying, "Mommy, it's me, Xiaoxi!"
Liang Wanyi's eyes widened in disbelief, and she looked at Ye Xingxian for confirmation.
Ye Xingxian then remembered that he should explain to his mother that he hadn’t been home for so many years and had been thinking about his lost sister all these years. He wondered how heartbroken his mother must have been.
“Mother, she is your Xiaoxi. When you and Father were not at home, Seventh Brother Yichen found Xiaoxi last year.”
"Xiaoxi, my daughter..."
The mother and daughter cried together, and it took them a while to calm down.
Seeing the three of them looking so close as a family, Li Heng felt a pang of sadness. But he still mustered his courage and went over, determined to say a proper goodbye to his mother.
"Mother," Li Heng called out timidly to Liang Wanyi.
Liang Wanyi was stunned for a moment, feeling that the boy in front of her was very familiar. Out of habit, she reached out her hand to Li Heng.
Li Heng immediately grasped Liang Wanyi's hand. At that moment, Liang Wanyi also remembered bits and pieces about her life in the underworld and the boy who had saved her.
“Aheng”.
Having spent so much time together, there must be a bond between mother and child.
Li Heng's golden tears also fell.
"That jerk," Xiaoxi cursed inwardly, "he's come and try to take my mom away from me again."
Xiao Xi squeezed between the two of them. "Li Heng, she is my mother. However, since you saved my mother, I will share a little bit of my mother's love with you."
"Really?" Li Heng couldn't believe it.
Xiaoxi: "Huh? You're my mom's godson, so doesn't that mean I have another godbrother?"
Li Heng was afraid that Xiao Xi would change her mind; "Sister Xi."
"That's too cheesy!" Xiaoxi quickly wiped her face and arms, making everyone present laugh.
This is the best possible ending.
Three days later, after Xiaoxi and her mother finished handing over their work here, they and their group were going home together.
Just then, the first batch of human walkers from the underworld graduated, and Wu Long also learned everything he was supposed to learn.
During these three days, Xiao Xi had a good talk with King Chu Jiang in the imperial study, with Hanlin scholar Wei Qingchuan assisting her in refining the text.
King Chujiang agreed with everything Xiaoxi said.
