Chapter 705: 705
The ancestral statue remained immobile.
It was unclear whether it had not heard Jiangli speak.
If an ordinary person saw Jiangli speaking to a statue, they would probably think she had gone mad.
Jiangli waited a while, and seeing that the ancestral statue still gave no response, she chuckled lightly, “So reluctant to tell ? It seems it must be bad news.”
It was as if she had struck a nerve; the statue suddenly closed its eyes, as if trying to ignore the existence of anything distressing.
Jiangli clicked her tongue and smiled indifferently. She didn’t pursue the matter with the ancestral statue any further, but her gaze grew increasingly profound.
Over the past few days, her mory had vaguely returned sowhat, yet it remained very unclear.
She only rembered that she must have had sothing very important to do, to have awakened forcefully during her closed-door cultivation at this ti.
But…
The cost of waking up so forcefully seed too great.
She now couldn’t recall many things.
She even forgot what she was supposed to do.
She only knew that so things had to be done.
Not only that…
There was also Xia Xin.
She had originally thought that Xia Xin was related to the old Taoist, which was why the Taoist had taken Xia Xin in.
But now, it seed…
It was far less simple than Jiangli had initially thought.
Xia Xin’s invisible Spiritual Bones were sothing that Jiangli couldn’t explain at all.
Moreover, she felt a familiar aura on Xia Xin’s body.
It was as if she had seen Xia Xin sowhere before.
But the mory was hazy.
She couldn’t rember clearly.
Thinking of Xia Xin’s strange Spiritual Bones, Jiangli rose to her feet, took out so joss paper from the cupboard next to the incense table, dabbed it with so Incense Ash, and scattered it into the air.
The Incense Ash and joss paper twirled upwards into the sky.
After a short while, Judge Cui appeared in the main hall.
Upon taking his place, and realizing where he was, Judge Cui imdiately bowed solemnly to the ancestral statue.
Turning his head, Judge Cui then saw Jiangli’s nonchalant face.
Judge Cui glanced at the ancestral statue and whispered, “My lord, why have you summoned here?”
“Of course, I have sothing for which I need your help.” Jiangli beckoned Judge Cui with her hand, “Old Cui, co here…”
Judge Cui had a bad feeling, but he still moved closer.
The mont he approached, Jiangli hooked her arm around his neck and pulled him down beside her to sit, “Old Cui, Xia Xin’s master, Ouyang Min, has he been reincarnated yet, or is he still underground? If he’s still here, have him co and see , I need his help with sothing.”
Judge Cui staggered from her pull, and settled down on the ground in an awkward position. Upon hearing her question, he replied helplessly, “This is really unfortunate, my lord. Ouyang Min had quite a bit of rit to his na, and when he entered Youdu City, considering your status, we arranged for him to skip the queue for reincarnation. He’s truly not in Youdu City now.”
Jiangli’s eyebrows shot up, “What’s going on with Fengdu, allowing him to jump the queue?”
Judge Cui chuckled awkwardly, “It was out of respect for you, my lord. Besides, he had no lingering attachnts. After entering Fengdu and coming to Youdu City, he willingly chose to be reincarnated early, so we obliged him.”
Jiangli swigged a drink, as she had initially intended to call up the old Taoist to inquire about Xia Xin’s origins.
But now, there was no one to ask.
“By the way, lord, why do you suddenly wish to see him? If there’s anything, perhaps I can be of assistance?” Judge Cui thought Jiangli had encountered so difficulties in the world of the living and offered his help with particular concern.
Upon hearing this, Jiangli looked at Judge Cui, her eyes twinkled a few tis, and then she suddenly smiled, “That might not be such a bad idea. Speaking of which, Old Cui, you can definitely help with this kind of favor!”
