Chapter 913: Chapter 912: Let’s Go Together

Shi Jiantong knew about the argument between Shi Guang and Shi Jianzhou. If it weren’t for this matter, Shi Guang wouldn’t have been the one who slipped through the cracks!

However... this matter will likely weigh on Shi Guang’s heart for a lifetime, a lifetime of regret, because there’s no possibility of remedying it anymore.

Shi Jiantong let out a soft sigh.

In the room, only the sound of Shi Guang’s wailing could be heard. The three of them didn’t stop him. If he could finally cry it out, let him cry.

Shi Guang cried hysterically, and when he was hoarse, he fainted.

Tian Zhi quickly caught him and laid him flat on the sofa.

Shi Jiantong was truly in a dilemma. Shi Jianbo initially had no chance to seize power, but this time, he took advantage of the opportunity, bribing many people with the promise of a remedy for the bad water, as long as they agreed to let him be the family head.

The Blood Circle was destroyed, and Qing Yan would naturally no longer send the relieving medicine. Once the bad water acts up, it’s like a toothache multiplied by hundreds of times. It may not be life-threatening for a while, but it can drive people to collapse from the pain.

Some people had experienced that and never wanted to go through it again. Even though the Shi Family members were all rescued, the people’s panic hadn’t lessened because of the power of the bad water.

Shi Jiantong thought of asking the two ancestors of the Shi Family for help, but two years ago, they had disappeared, wandering off, and can’t be found now, leaving only Beisitian’s place.

So this request, Shi Jiantong had to make.

Taking advantage of Shi Guang’s unconscious state, Shi Jiantong organized his words and then said to Beisitian, "Doctor Bei, Jian Tong has an unreasonable request..."

Saying this made him feel uneasy, as if he were some ungrateful, greedy person. But the Shi Family members are all on the verge of erupting now, and this request had to be made.

Beisitian smiled lightly, her gaze forward, "Please speak."

Shi Jiantong smiled wryly, "It’s like this, we want to purchase talismanic water that can neutralize the bad water. Well, you see..."

Beisitian nodded, "Okay."

Shi Jiantong was thrilled, but his joy didn’t last long before he heard Beisitian continue, "But you have to buy it at market price. You know, talismanic water that neutralizes bad water, and without side effects, is extremely difficult to produce. I’m not exaggerating; perhaps only our Qingyu family can do it at present."

It’s not their Qingyu family, but only Beisitian has a way!

Not all those who can perform Spiritual Talisman can neutralize bad water. Even if large families and major sects gather, they probably can’t find the remedy quickly.

This is why they were so shocked initially.

The value of such a Xuan Talisman is extremely high, naturally very expensive. Shi Jiantong knew that a bottle like this starts at least five million!

That’s still low...

If it were the old Shi Family, they could afford such a sum, but now the Shi Family’s nest has been emptied, and the liquid assets of each industry simply can’t support them buying so many Xuan Talismans!

Shi Jiantong hadn’t thought about buying part of it and researching the rest himself, but they had already tried this in the small village and found one ingredient unknown to them!

If Beisitian knew what he was thinking, she would surely laugh. They certainly couldn’t know, because it was diluted with a drop of Xing Jun’s blood!

The Shi Family members knew about Beisitian’s rescue work when everyone gathered, and Shi Jianbo naturally knew too. Shi Jiantong was worried Shi Jianbo would win others’ support first, so he came here to take Shi Guang away to lead and request remedies.

Shi Jiantong was filled with bitterness. He didn’t think Beisitian was wrong for charging; it was entirely normal.

After all, Qingyu and the Shi Family didn’t have any particular relationship. Even if they were friendly, there was no way to provide Xuan Talismans without charge, let alone how difficult they were to produce. Shi Jiantong knew.

Five million was probably understated by Beisitian.

Now Shi Guang slowly woke up, perhaps because he had cried and vented, his eyes showing a little brightness.

During this period, Beisitian changed the incense, so Shi Guang’s spirits weren’t too poor; just the blow he received was too severe, leaving him a bit worn.

Shi Jiantong had long noticed the incense; Qingyu now had two well-known products: one was a talisman medium that could still be used even if close to a Spiritual Talisman; the other was this incense.

Qingyu’s incense had prices several times higher than others, yet once out, they were immediately snatched up!

And the incense produced by Beisitian was literally priceless, with limited monthly supply, and sometimes not even available monthly—yet countless waited.

The incense she produced all bore a ’Bei’ character, sold only at Heavenly Blessing, so Heavenly Blessing was regarded as a treasure not only by high-level figures but also by major sects and families.

Shi Jiantong averted his eyes, recalling Shi Family members queued up at dawn for this incense to study it, but to achieve this effect without Beisitian’s expertise, they eventually gave up.

Nowadays, it’s not always possible to snatch the incense, yet there it lies casually in the drawer... that’s confidence.

"Feeling better? The Shi Family waits for you." Beisitian said softly.

If the family hadn’t undergone a change, Shi Guang might still be a teenage prodigy, but now the Shi Family faced such a huge upheaval—not only internal conflicts, but countless eyes watched externally!

So Shi Guang now, whether or not he can pick himself up, he must!

Shi Guang slowly nodded, closed his eyes briefly, then reopened them, a hint of determination flashing, "Sis is right; I can’t let my dad’s efforts go to waste."

The atonement he sought was lifelong remorse, only to be addressed once the Shi Family stabilized.

Shi Guang stood up and said to Shi Jiantong, "Uncle Jian Dong, let’s go."

The Shi Family had gathered at the division in Beijing, which had been repaired.

Shi Jiantong nodded, hesitatingly glanced at Beisitian, sighed; he thought of telling Shi Guang that if Beisitian intervened, stabilizing the Shi Family was inevitable.

Shi Jiantong knew that relying solely on Shi Guang’s successor status was insufficient, and at least a third of people were drawn by Shi Jianbo. If these people cause trouble, they can’t all be cut down.

The Shi Family can’t endure further turmoil.

Just as he hesitated to speak, he saw Beisitian standing beside Shi Guang.
