Capítulo 733: Chapter 717: Quan Jing, You’re Going to Die Soon!

Qin Liuxi visited Qingping Temple, where Qing Yuan happened to come out of Master Chi Yuan’s Daoist Room and saw her, his eyes crinkling into a smile.

“Why does the Junior Temple Master have free time to come here?”

Qin Liuxi noticed he was holding a piece of paper, and she pointed with her mouth: “What’s that?”

“It’s the blueprint for the new hall. Du the Good Person is really generous. Not only donating a hall, but he’s also going to cover the roof with glazed tiles and even provide a golden statue.” Qing Yuan said with a smile: “This is a devout believer of our temple. Junior Temple Master, you should draw dozens of peace charms for Du the Good Person to take back. After all, he works in the transport business; there are many people, not enough to go around.”

Qin Liuxi’s temples started throbbing, and she said, “Drawing talismans doesn’t require Spiritual Power? I don’t have any, draw them yourselves. You want me to earn gold for the temple and draw talismans, what do I need you for?”

Besides, as if those commonplace peace charms are anything precious.

Qing Yuan, looking abashed, said: “Then ten will do.” As if afraid she wouldn’t agree, he added: “The temple master has agreed to it, you take it up with him.”

After he said this, he dashed off like a puff of smoke.

Qin Liuxi snorted lightly and entered Master Chi Yuan’s Daoist Room.

Master Chi Yuan looked up, saw the Heavenly Pearl on her wrist, and his expression changed slightly: “Did you go to the Underworld?”

“Yes.” Qin Liuxi said: “I even met Emperor Fengdu and Ksitigarbha. They were so hospitable, gave me a few magic treasures.”

Master Chi Yuan: “…”

You must have swindled them, right?

He asked cautiously, “You didn’t create any trouble, did you?”

“How could I possibly cause trouble? That’s the Underworld; what if I offended them and they trapped me there, unable to return?”

Master Chi Yuan thought to himself, no way, they would just pack you off and send you away; how could they possibly trap you.

“Here, take this.” Qin Liuxi handed him the Vajra Mallet: “This is from Ksitigarbha, it’s more powerful than the one passed down in our Daoist Temple, you keep it.”

Master Chi Yuan’s eyes shimmered, he reverently took it in both hands, feeling the overwhelming Buddhist Mana, and said with inner peace: “Is this truly from the Womb of the Earth Bodhisattva?”

“Why would I lie to you.” Qin Liuxi looked at his piety and clicked her tongue: “It’s just a Vajra Hammer, look how excited you are, as if he’s your father.”

“Watch your mouth, don’t be disrespectful, Ksitigarbha has saved countless evil spirits, this Vajra Mallet is blessed with his Mana, it’s extremely precious.” Master Chi Yuan glared at her and said: “This will remain as a treasure in the temple, used for the Law Field to save resentful spirits.”

Having given it to him, Qin Liuxi wouldn’t care what he did with it, saying indifferently, “Whatever you say.”

“And what’s this?” Master Chi Yuan pointed to the Heavenly Pearl on her wrist.

“Gifted by Emperor Fengdu.” Qin Liuxi proudly lifted it: “With this, no ghost soldiers or ghost generals will dare go against my will.”

Master Chi Yuan’s mouth twitched: “It’s not meant to be used like that, you must not bully the weak or engage in wrongful deeds.”

Qin Liuxi sneered and took out the Qiankun Soul Devouring Mirror, explaining its purpose.

Master Chi Yuan frowned, a hint of worry in his eyes: “Si Luo has been imprisoned for thousands of years and could still escape from Nine Netherworld; that shows how formidable he is. Even with this mirror at hand, you should not be careless. If it can sense his energy, it’s possible that he can too, after all, it hung on the Nine Netherworld Wall for thousands of years, it’s familiar with Si Luo, and vice versa.”

This warning struck a chord with Qin Liuxi.

She tapped the Soul-devouring Mirror lightly, an idea forming in her mind, best not to let him know then.

“If I can’t beat him, I’ll just play it by ear.” Qin Liuxi put away the mirror and said, “This trip to the Underworld, the emperors treated me with such politeness, I must have been a powerful figure in a past life, right?”

Master Chi Yuan said sternly, “It’s getting late, go back to the city to sleep, dreaming here is ultimately not sweet.”

Qin Liuxi ha’ed: “Don’t be skeptical, their attitude was very suspicious. Old man, you should feel proud, having such a powerful disciple like me, go on and chuckle to yourself.”

“Not dying from anger because of you is indeed a cause for secret laughter. Go on, get out of here.” Master Chi Yuan chuckled: “No matter how impressive you are, in this life, you still have to call me master.”

Qin Liuxi choked for words; this conversation was simply maddening.

Watching her leave, Master Chi Yuan shook his head slightly. No matter what, good or bad, she was still his disciple.

After leaving the Daoist Room, Qin Liuxi planted the peach pit she brought back on the back mountain, and then descended the mountain to return to Feichang Dao.

Upon seeing her, Wei Xie’s face changed, and his gaze fell on the Heavenly Pearl on her wrist, asking, “What’s that?”

The aura it emitted was quite intimidating to ghosts.

Qin Liuxi thrust her hand in front of him: “This, Heavenly Pearl from Emperor Fengdu.”

Wei Xie’s aura immediately wilted, and he nearly kneed down: “Don’t come near me.” He looked warily at the beads and said, “With that thing on you, any ghost that sees you will have to flee.”

Evil spirits dare not approach, but she is a Heavenly Master; from now on, when she needs to inquire something from a ghost, who would dare come close, not fearing that the bead’s aura might suppress their evil?

Qin Liuxi raised an eyebrow, pondered for a moment, and with a thought, she swiped her hand over the Heavenly Pearl. A warm breath wrapped around it, enhancing the evil-suppressing aura and making it even more daunting.

Yet, it subdued the essence of Emperor Fengdu.

Feeling this, Emperor Fengdu in the Underworld’s brows sunk slightly, and he huffed.

“How about now?”

Wei Xie probed and then replied, “It doesn’t give off the aura that terrifies ghosts from the depths of their being like before, but it instills even greater dread.”

“Dread is what’s needed.” Qin Liuxi thought of Quan Jing’s remaining lifespan she saw in the Judge’s Book of Life and Death, asking, “Has Quan Jing been coming to the Daoist Room for nourishment?”

“As punctual as thunder,” Wei Xie replied, and upon seeing her expression darken, asked, “What’s wrong?”

Qin Liuxi massaged her temples, feeling a headache coming on: “His lifespan is running short. I’m going to see what’s going on.”

Without detoxification, Quan Jing too would die, but now he is being treated in various ways, receiving nourishment in her Daoist Room set with a Spirit Gathering Array, having consumed Spirit Fruit, and drinking soup medicines for nourishing the viscera. His body shouldn’t be declining so rapidly.

But his remaining life span is less than fifteen days. What gives?

Could it be that on the 25th of May, that Bone Erosion, it will completely erupt, causing his death and the obliteration of his soul?

Qin Liuxi could only pray that Gu Po’s work is successful and that the poisonous insect is refined without delay.

Upon reaching the small courtyard that Quan Jing had bought, he was relaxing in the small garden reading military strategies. Seeing his face, her brow creased.

Deathly Qi lingered.

Although faint, the presence of Deathly Qi was a sign of impending mortality.

Quan Jing was very polite. Seeing Qin Liuxi’s grim expression, he smiled and asked, “Is Junior Temple Master troubled by anything, to the point of feeling unhappy? Your brow is so furrowed it forms the character ‘Chuan’.”

Qin Liuxi said, “You’re about to die, of course I’m not happy.”

Counting down the time to snatch someone from King Yan, it would be strange if I could be happy.

Quan Jing was taken aback.

Quan An, standing not far from him, directly turned pale.

“You, as a monk, speak such malicious words? Cursing people the moment you open your mouth.” A harsh, unpleasant voice came from behind.

Qin Liuxi turned her head, her eyes narrowing.
