Chapter 423: Chapter 423: Xun Tianhai’s Confusion

Upon hearing this, Director Xu immediately understood and looked eagerly at Jiangli, "Young lady, please don’t hold this against us, we didn’t realize the situation was this serious. Don’t take our previous words to heart, alright..."

As he spoke, he nudged Xun Tianhai in the lower back.

It must be said that Xun Tianhai was also someone who could handle things in a mature way.

Knowing that they now had no choice but to seek Jiangli’s help, he quickly accepted the reality, pushed Director Xu aside, stood firm, and bowed earnestly to Jiangli, saying, "I was careless with my words earlier, failing to recognize Mount Tai. Now, I beg you, as long as you can help us resolve this current issue, whatever you want me to do, even if it’s to be at your beck and call, I will agree without a second word."

Jiangli leisurely finished the last piece of potato chips, handed the bag to Xia Xin, and said, "These flavored chips are quite tasty, buy these next time."

Xia Xin took the bag, a bit embarrassed, and whispered a reminder, "Ancestor, we’re discussing serious matters!"

"Am I not listening?" Jiangli said seriously.

Xia Xin: "..."

Jiangli turned her head, looked at Xun Tianhai, "Alright, since Director Xun has asked, I’ll give you face and go take a look."

Having said that, Jiangli walked inside on her own.

Xun Tianhai and Director Xu both breathed a sigh of relief.

Luckily, Jiangli was true to her word and didn’t deliberately make things difficult.

Otherwise, they really wouldn’t have known what to do.

Director Xu and Xun Tianhai exchanged a glance and, together with Fu Shiyan, followed behind Jiangli, the group majestically heading into the mountain.

The chill on Xun Tianhai’s arm became heavier, and the Evil Qi that was originally under control seemed to be making a comeback.

Noticing Xun Tianhai shivering severely, Director Xu turned around only to see the Evil Qi surging on Xun Tianhai’s arm, as if trying to break through the Talisman Paper on his arm.

Worried, Director Xu eagerly sought Jiangli’s help, "Young lady, could you take a look at Director Xun’s arm first? What exactly is wrong with it?"

At those words, Jiangli turned around, walked up to Xun Tianhai and Director Xu.

Looking at Xun Tianhai’s arm, Jiangli raised her hand, her forefinger and middle finger together like a knife, and pressed on the upper part of Xun Tianhai’s arm, paused her fingertip, and then slid down the arm.

A red line suddenly appeared on Xun Tianhai’s arm.

He only felt a slight prickling pain in his arm.

Before he could clearly see Jiangli’s action, he saw her grab his middle finger and pull it outwards.

The next second, the surging Evil Qi followed the red line, inch by inch, crawling towards the tip of Xun Tianhai’s finger.

Soon, a wisp of Evil Qi drilled out from the tip of Xun Tianhai’s finger.

Jiangli took out a red cotton thread and wound it around the tip of Xun Tianhai’s finger.

The Evil Qi that emerged from Xun Tianhai’s fingertip immediately turned into a puff of smoke and vanished.

Xun Tianhai and Director Xu were both stunned.

Although Director Xu had dealings with the Unusual Affairs Management Office, he had never seen such mystical and mysterious things.

Xun Tianhai was even more shocked. He vaguely made out that Jiangli was helping him expel evil, similar to a method of purifying Yin Energy.

But typically, purifying Yin Energy would involve the use of Purification Talismans, Purification Arrays, or slowly nurturing with Spiritual Energy.

The way Jiangli did it, without using any supportive objects, and directly causing the Evil Qi to disappear on its own, was a first for him.

This young lady...

Who exactly is she?

Xun Tianhai’s temples throbbed rapidly as he looked at Jiangli with caution.

Earlier, when Master Mu mentioned Jiangli, he thought she was just someone negligent in proper studies, adept in using evil cultivation but had not yet used it to harm others.

Therefore, he had no good impression of Jiangli and did not think she was anything special, just someone taking the easy path of evil cultivation.

But now...

Just this alone was beyond anything Xun Tianhai could hope to achieve in his lifetime.
