Chapter 605: Chapter 605: Master Xiaoqiao Is In Trouble

Xia Xin followed Jiangli into the side hall, subconsciously saying, "Ancestors, shall I prepare some tea? Are we still drawing for free spots tonight?"

Jiangli hummed in response, then added, "You shouldn’t be moving around, your leg needs to rest for two days. Don’t delay our long journey the day after tomorrow."

As she spoke, she looked up at Fu’er and instructed, "You go prepare the tea."

Fu’er was incredulous, pointing at his own nose, "Me?"

Jiangli raised an eyebrow, "Otherwise, is it me?"

Fu’er: "..."

He didn’t have the nerve to enslave the ancestral master.

With a resigned air, Fu’er could only pick up the teapot and head outside.

As he passed by Xia Xin, he didn’t forget to give him a glare.

Xia Xin let out an awkward laugh, pointing at his own foot to indicate his twisted ankle, then apologetically gestured a bow with his hands.

Fu’er snorted before finally walking out.

Ignoring Fu’er, Jiangli said to Xia Xin, "Come here, sit down, and let’s talk."

Xia Xin responded with an "aye," then walked over and sat down opposite Jiangli.

Jiangli handed him a phone, "Same old rules, draw five free spots. If there are talismans to be sold, sell them, then get some rest early after finishing up."

Xia Xin acknowledged with an okay, took the phone, and logged into the Xuanmen Association forum.

Xia Xin first dealt with some backlog messages.

Before long, Fu’er came in carrying the tea.

Jiangli took out some snacks she had stored in the cabinet earlier, preparing to work while waiting for Jian Lewei to return.

At the same time,

in H city, Master Xiaoqiao was having a difficult time this evening.

He had taken on a task today. A client had been quite unlucky recently and, upon visiting the Taoist Temple where Master Xiaoqiao resided, Xiaoqiao immediately noticed Yin Energy on him.

Upon inquiry, the client said that he had recently found a sum of money and initially thought his luck had turned, anticipating a windfall.

But instead, his luck had taken a turn for the worse lately, to the point where even drinking cold water would get his teeth stuck.

Having no other choice, he came to see Xiaoqiao.

In the past, Xiaoqiao was the one who took care of his affairs.

Hearing this, Xiaoqiao instantly understood; that money wasn’t ordinary—it was a life-selling money.

Typically, it was wealthy people at the end of their lifespans who, wishing to live a few more years, would hire someone to use dark magic on money or a talisman, placing it at intersections or crowded places.

Once someone picked it up, the picker would essentially form an invisible contract with the other party.

The person who paid would be able to transfer their illnesses to the picker, or even transfer the picker’s lifespan to themselves.

In short, it was a method used to extend one’s own life.

This kind of evil spell didn’t require a high level of Cultivation Base, but it needed special talismans, which are now almost lost and thus not widely known.

Very few people were aware of it.

Xiaoqiao told the client all of these things, and the client panicked, asking for his help to get rid of the trouble.

Xiaoqiao agreed and went to the client’s house with him, planning to take out the sum of money and set up a Formation to see if the issue could be resolved.

Unexpectedly, the person who used the dark magic had greater abilities than him and, sensing Xiaoqiao’s intention to break the spell, started a supernatural battle with Xiaoqiao.

Xiaoqiao took a handful of glutinous rice mixed with Black Dog’s Blood, scattered it over the money, and then set up an altar. He drew his Mage Sword and recited the Celestial Spell.

The flames of the candles on the altar suddenly leaped up.

The flames shot up high instantly, a bright fiery red as if they wanted to break through the sky.

The client’s family stood beside, shivering with fear.

And in the next second, the leaping flames suddenly changed color.

The once bright red turned into a dark black.

The client screamed out in fright.

"Master Xiaoqiao, something’s, something’s not right!"
