Chapter 259: Chapter 259: Violent Ancestor

"Zijing Garden..." Wu Mei cried as if she was about to faint, managing to wheeze out four words weakly.

Jiangli nodded and looked towards the driver.

Realizing what was needed, the driver immediately started the car.

"That...," supporting Wu Mei, Xia Xin turned to Jiangli and asked, "Ancestor, should we call the police or an ambulance in advance?"

Wu Mei had said earlier that Fan Siguo was covered in blood, and he might not be in good condition...

Jiangli turned his head, puzzled, "Ambulance?"

"...It’s, it’s a vehicle specifically for saving people, dispatched by the hospital, and it’s faster," Xia Xin remembered that the old ancestor didn’t know about these things and glanced at the driver warily.

Seeing the driver focused on driving, he relaxed.

Jiangli said, "That’s fine, call the ambulance first."

Xia Xin nodded and asked Wu Mei in a soft voice, "Do you know the specific address of Hen Cheng’s home?"

Wu Mei weakly hummed an affirmation and gave an address.

Xia Xin repeated it quietly to himself and, after confirming it with Wu Mei, took out his phone and dialed 120.

...

Zijing Garden wasn’t far from Nancheng.

It took only five minutes by car for the group to arrive at Zijing Garden.

Following the address given by Wu Mei, they headed straight for Hen Cheng’s home.

But there was no one in Hen Cheng’s house.

Upon arrival, Xia Xin subconsciously knocked on the door, but no one answered despite several knocks.

Xia Xin turned to Jiangli for help, saying, "Ancestor, it seems there’s no one..."

"Step aside," Jiangli glanced at the door and spoke indifferently.

Even through the door, Jiangli could smell the strong scent of blood and the faint breathing inside.

If they didn’t open the door now, it would be too late.

Xia Xin, not guessing what Jiangli was about to do, instinctively stepped aside.

However, he had barely taken a step to the side,

when Jiangli lifted his right foot and with a loud bang, kicked Hen Cheng’s door.

The door let out a piercing wail.

With a creak, it was kicked open.

Jiangli didn’t think twice and walked straight in.

Xia Xin shivered and looked incredulously at Hen Cheng’s door.

He saw...

Hen Cheng’s door had been kicked so hard it was deformed, with a massive dent in the middle and the door frame warped from the force.

This...

Could a human really achieve such a feat?

Xia Xin looked at Wu Mei in astonishment, wanting to ask if he was seeing things wrong.

But he saw Wu Mei standing there, equally stunned.

Nobody had expected Jiangli to open the door in such a violent way.

Luckily, it was a workday, and it seemed no neighbors were at home.

Xia Xin looked around vigilantly, making sure no one had noticed them, then quickly supported Wu Mei and entered.

At this moment,

Jiangli had already followed the scent of blood into the living room.

Upon entering, he saw a person lying in a pool of blood, eyes tightly shut, with only a breath faint to the point of being inaudible to the average person, proving he was still alive.

Jiangli was about to crouch down for a closer look,

when Wu Mei’s heart-wrenching scream pierced his eardrums.

"Husband!"

With that cry, Wu Mei confirmed the identity of the man on the ground.

Xia Xin, looking at the bloodshed, felt a sense of fear creeping up, carefully supporting Wu Mei as they moved closer.

Jiangli crouched down next to Fan Siguo, checked his neck, "He’s breathing, not dead, we’re in time."

Having said that, she took out a talisman and rubbed it in the palm of her hand.

The talisman immediately turned into a small medicinal pill.

Xia Xin, watching Jiangli’s magic-like maneuvers, was amazed.

"Ancestor, is that... a Medicine Talisman?"

He remembered his master mentioning that there were many types of talismans, such as Talismanic Script and Martial Talismans.

Talismanic Script referred to those without suppressive power, like the Energy Nourishing Charm and Exorcism Talisman.

Martial Talismans included the Killing Ghost Talisman, Demon Subduing Talisman, Demon Banishing Talisman, Suppressing Evil Talisman, Explosive Talisman, and so forth.

Upon a closer categorization, they were divided into purification, conditioning, health supplementing, energy nourishing, evil suppressing, and evil eliminating types.

Conditioning, health supplementing, and energy nourishing are all types of Medicine Talismans.
