Chapter 1205: Jinx

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After explaining everything to the Crown Prince, Xie Qiao began to gather the things she needed.

The four seasons heavenly water was not difficult to find. This wealthy family would often collect some fresh snow and dew water to make tea. There were also hot springs in the suburbs of the capital. In just two days, Xie Qiao had gathered all these things.

As for the scriptures and incantations written by an academic excellence brush, they were not difficult to gather as well.

Xie Qiao only told Xie Pinggang that she had a way to solve it, but she did not explain much else.

“Eldest Brother, since we have found out that Great Consort Hui wants to harm her biological father, then… There is one thing that I have to remind you of.” Xie Qiao and Xie Pinggang found some time to have a good chat.

!!

When Xie Pinggang heard her words, he had a bad feeling in his heart. “Tell me.”

“I don’t know what happened between Great Consort Hui and the grand preceptor. I just feel that since she wanted to harm him, she would definitely choose a foolproof method…

“This evil technique can harm family members. If it backfires, it will also harm her family members. If she insists on the grand preceptor dying, then… It is very likely that she will personally control the evil technique, so…” Xie Qiao paused.

In this way, regardless of what the evil technique she would end up doing, the grand preceptor’s life would be lost.

Previously, Xie Qiao had been thinking about what the Taoist master beside Great Consort Hui would do. However, these two days, she thought if Great Consort Hui was an evil person, she would not give the enemy a chance to catch his breath.

“In doing so, we can not take the grand preceptor’s life…”

“Eldest Brother, this is different. I can break this evil technique, so I can save the grand preceptor and the children. However, even if the grand preceptor does not get into trouble because of the evil technique, he will also suffer the backfire… The reason why it will be backfired is because Great Consort Hui has committed evil. This kind of calamity can only be said to be self-inflicted. Therefore, there is nothing I can do.”

The grand preceptor was indeed innocent, but with blood ties, he really had no way of escaping.

After realizing that she might not be able to save the grand preceptor at all, Xie Qiao was also very depressed.

“I see.” Xie Pinggang did not show much emotion on his face. “I understand. Just try your best.”

Xie Qiao was surprised when she heard that. When her eldest brother heard that something was going to happen to the grand preceptor, his expression was terrible. How could he accept it so easily now?

It was not that Xie Pinggang was not upset.

It was just that he had been going to the grand preceptor’s place every day for the past two days to serve him well and fulfill his filial piety.

If Xie Qiao could really save him, she would definitely try her best to do it. She would definitely not hold back. Since it was no longer possible, there was nothing he could do. He could only accept fate.

The grand preceptor could be considered to have lived a long life.

In this life, he had been a bandit and also the grand preceptor. In this world, there was no master who was more glorious than him.

He also told the grand preceptor that he had a daughter. Although that daughter wanted to harm him, the grand preceptor also knew that he had married and had a child in this life. This life was very exciting and he had no regrets.

He had no memory, so he did not have much affection for his daughter, Great Consort Hui. Even after knowing the truth, he only sighed a little.

“This method of cracking the spell is definitely not easy to do. You still have to pay more attention to your health. It’s not easy for you to live to this age and you’re already married. You haven’t even had a child yet. Don’t lose it just like that.” Xie Pinggang could still joke.

People, after all, had to die!

He was open-minded!

“Jinx.” Xie Qiao rolled her eyes at him.

Just as Xie Qiao finished speaking, the steward suddenly brought people over with him. It seemed like he had something important to report.

When he saw Xie Pinggang, that person immediately knelt down. “Master Xie, the grand preceptor is missing…”

They were people from the grand preceptor’s residence?

Xie Qiao looked at Xie Pinggang in surprise.

Xie Pinggang frowned and said, “Didn’t I tell you to stay by the grand preceptor’s side and not leave?!”
