Chapter 382: Chapter 382: The Ancestor’s Live Teaching

As soon as his hand reached in,

Xia Xin felt a cold sensation, like a whoosh, rushing over and coiling around his fingertips, burrowing under his skin.

In the blink of an eye, he felt a chilling cold all over his body, as if he were standing naked in a frozen wasteland.

Every bone in his body creaked, as if frozen stiff.

Xia Xin reflexively tried to pull his hand back, but it seemed like something in the water was gripping it tightly.

No matter how hard he strained, he couldn’t break free.

Xia Xin panicked immediately, stuttering in fear, "Ancestor, what’s... what’s happening..."

Jiangli glanced at him and grasped his wrist.

The next second, she effortlessly pulled Xia Xin’s hand out.

However, his arm was enveloped in layers of black energy, and it seemed to be frozen stiff, completely numb.

Seeing his palm that had changed color, Xia Xin shivered violently, "Ancestor, is there... something... under this jar?"

"Yeah," Jiangli said nonchalantly, "There’s a corpse, a fierce ghost, suppressed here."

Xia Xin’s pupils nearly split, "What the hell! Ancestor, you knew already? Then why did you... let me..."

Jiangli said lightly, "If I didn’t let you try, how would you know where the danger lies? Xia Xin, think about it, you sensed that there was something off about the Feng Shui Jar, so why did you still put your hand in?"

Xia Xin paused.

He opened his mouth, about to speak.

Jiangli continued, "Don’t say it’s because I’m here, that I told you to try it. What if I weren’t here? You must have your own ability to distinguish danger."

Xia Xin immediately wilted.

His body shuddered violently.

It was as if he were wrapped in a cold wind, the biting chill constantly drilling into his bones.

Seeing how much he was shivering, Jiangli took out a Talisman and stuck it onto him.

Xia Xin suddenly felt a warm breeze, and soon the chill dissipated, his body temperature gradually returning to normal.

He looked at Jiangli with a touch of surprise.

Jiangli explained, "This is a Purification Talisman. Basically, your body was contaminated with Yin Energy. As long as it’s purified, the Yin Energy removed, you will return to normal. You need to learn which Talisman to use in each situation, remember that."

"I remember, Ancestor, I’ve got it all!" Xia Xin immediately realized that Jiangli wanted him to learn through direct experience, to teach him some genuine skills.

He became excited at once.

Jiangli spoke with an unchanged expression, "Next, take a look around this garden, see if there’s anything odd?"

At the mention of an assessment, Xia Xin focused intently, scrutinizing every corner of the garden.

But to the average person, it was just a vibrant and colorful garden, akin to a floral paradise.

Nothing particularly out of the ordinary.

The only distinctive feature was that every plant was trimmed to perfection.

It was evident that someone had taken great care in maintaining them.

Xia Xin scratched his head, as he could not spot anything amiss.

But since the Ancestor intended to test him, it proved there was indeed something wrong here.

It was just that he hadn’t discovered what the issue was...

With this thought, Xia Xin became even more earnest.

He would dash a few steps to the left to take a look, then run a few steps to the right to check again.

Yet, he still looked troubled, understanding nothing.

Jiangli stood casually beside the Feng Shui Jar, silent, allowing him to figure things out on his own.

After all, everything was within her grasp.
