Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack-Chapter 1338 - 1318: Xuan Ming’s Departure

The small jade vase was placed under her wrist, and after nearly half a bottle flowed out, she laid the jade vase down, letting the fresh blood drip onto the ground, then calmly stopped the bleeding.

"Qhianqhian, if you want ours, we’ll give it to you. What are you trying to do?" Luo Yanran immediately frowned tightly, took a deep breath, and accepted Luo Qianqian’s dagger, ready to act, but was stopped by Luo Qianqian: "Wait a moment, I’ll have my brother bring the jade bottle."

Soon, those who were called gathered in the courtyard, looking at the scars on Luo Qianqian’s hand, their expressions changed slightly as they all uttered the same words as Luo Yanran.

Luo Qianqian just curled her lips slightly; what she had to give was not just this.

Seeing everyone collecting blood, she turned to look at An Hao, gently touching his small cheek, pinching it...

No one noticed the oddity at the corner of An Hao’s lips.

"Brother, thank you. Everyone has worked hard, I’ll have my brother deliver the medicine soon." Holding the jade bottle, Luo Qianqian smiled gently, placed An Hao in Luo Shufan’s arms, took a small basket from the yard, and left with the jade bottle.

Following Tang Guo into the location of the boundary monument, the area was still perpetually spring, surrounded by the water fountain, the herbs of undetermined growth age, even the ginseng had a human-like shape.

Calmly looking at the boundary monument, Luo Qianqian glanced at Tang Guo: "Shouldn’t I ask you for some blood too?"

"I’m not human." Tang Guo looked at Luo Qianqian very calmly.

Luo Qianqian curled her lips slightly, slid open her previous wrist wound, controlling it with the other hand so that the blood wouldn’t coagulate too quickly, allowing it to drip drop by drop.

Calmly using her hand as a brush, she dipped it in blood to write a name on the boundary monument, poured the blood from a jade bottle, watching as the golden light flashed, and the name disappeared from the monument; only then she slightly curled her lips, eyes fixedly gazing at the monument, encased it with her spiritual power, separating a portion only, and thusly severing her spiritual power, her ruddy face instantly turned stark white, her steps slightly faltered, and soon the boundary monument sank into the ground unseen.

Luo Qianqian calmly beckoned Tang Guo: "Plant herbs in this area for me." Tang Guo nodded in agreement.

Only then did Luo Qianqian peacefully sat by the lake, looking at the sparkling, clear water, curling her lips again, washed away the bloodstains on her wrist, quietly took out a jade bottle from her arms, poured out an elixir, tossed it into her mouth, closed her eyes, submerged into the lake, assuming a cultivation pose.

Though her face appeared somewhat weak, she gradually recovered.

A misty fog arose from the lake, enveloping Luo Qianqian.

After a long time, Luo Qianqian opened her eyes; time here was different from outside, only she could bring people in here, others couldn’t break in, even Feng Xi tried multiple times unsuccessfully.

Unless Luo Qianqian wasn’t there, only Tang Guo could enter this space.

Quietly observing everything before her, Luo Qianqian reentered the Mysterious Nether Realm, looked at Xuan Ming, softly called: "Teacher."

"So polite today?" Xuan Ming remarked, noticing Luo Qianqian’s poor complexion but asking no more, merely smiling: "Have you realized the old man is leaving?"

"Leaving? Teacher, where are you going?" Luo Qianqian was briefly bewildered, then frowned: "I haven’t even graduated, and you are leaving? That’s irresponsible..."

Xuan Ming chuckled bitterly; if possible, he too wouldn’t want to leave, but if he didn’t, he feared the seal wouldn’t last until the day the child qualified to go there; his legacy would only reach its final step there.

"Girl, what I could teach you is this, the rest you must learn yourself." Xuan Ming quietly watched Luo Qianqian: "These are the results of my years; you’ll have to carry forward the talisman tool legacy now."

"Teacher... will we meet again?" Luo Qianqian looked at Xuan Ming, despite the old man’s strictness and severity, he genuinely treated her well, imparting everything.

"There’ll be opportunities; I imagine by then you will be someone worth admiring."

Listening to Xuan Ming’s words, Luo Qianqian was dumbfounded; the Emperor of Ice was an apex existence, currently comforting her.

"Remember, young girl, talisman tools are not solely mastered by water attributes." Xuan Ming suddenly sighed, looked at Luo Qianqian, reached out, placed a token in her hand: "Go now, recognize the Xuanming Ring in three days."

Luo Qianqian wanted to say more but was sent out by Xuan Ming, looking puzzled at the Xuanming Ring, feeling lost, couldn’t go back in again.

Cradling her arm, shedding tears: "Teacher... I will definitely promote our talisman tool legacy! I promise!"

Upon Tang Guo’s return, she saw Luo Qianqian shedding tears, didn’t interrupt until three days had passed here; she then bit her finger, dropped her blood onto the Xuanming Ring.

A dark light flashed, Luo Qianqian’s eyes, which hadn’t closed in three days, finally shut, and she collapsed by the lake.

Tang Guo quietly watched Luo Qianqian without approaching; a white phantom appeared beside Luo Qianqian, gently stroked her head, sighed deeply: "Good child..."

Finished, looked at Tang Guo, smiled, slowly vanished into the air, leaving no trace.

After a long time, Luo Qianqian awoke, calmly stood up, turned to Tang Guo: "Let’s go, time to find allies."

Tang Guo nodded, with no past playful expression, serious and earnest.

When Luo Qianqian came out, the sky had just darkened, the sky a beautiful orange-red.

Luo Shufan sat by the roadside, waiting anxiously.

"Brother." Luo Qianqian smiled looking at Luo Shufan: "The problem’s solved; now I need some soldiers." Soldiers to the Human Realm.

Luo Shufan rose, hugging Luo Qianqian: "As long as you’re alright, brother will accompany you; feeling helpless waiting for results is terrible, I never want it again."

Choking back tears, embracing Luo Qianqian, Luo Qianqian nestled in his arms, nuzzled gently: "But, I want to protect my brother, brother isn’t as strong as me, just stay at the Nine Heavens Pavilion; if anything happens... you can represent me at the Sect Conference."

Luo Qianqian laughed lightly, seemingly truly unaffected.

Luo Shufan’s arm stiffened, tightened his embrace: "Don’t talk nonsense, nothing will happen, you have me, An Hao, father and mother, and..."

"Yes, nothing will happen." Luo Qianqian instinctively interrupted him, gently patted his shoulder: "Brother, I’m not a child anymore, no one can bully me now."

"Okay." Luo Shufan did not persist; even if he wanted to help, his lack of ability remained the biggest issue.

He could only help his sister manage the Nine Heavens Pavilion, fulfill the role of the Pavilion Master that didn’t need to fight.
