Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2001 Black Smoke

"Well, now that things have come to this, we can only give it a try with a glimmer of hope." Ni Yuan said.

Tie Jinjue saw from her expression that she seemed to feel that there was little hope, and he thought: What would the price be? He didn't want to think about it for now. A glimmer of hope was still hope. He should just hope that she would find other ways to save the relationship that would not cost too much.

"Do I still need to cooperate like before?" Tie Jinjue asked.

"Yes." Ni Yuan said, "I hope Elder Tie will cooperate again."

"No problem." Tie Jinjue said.

Ni Yuan took the Kuanhong white jade from Tie Jinjue again and placed it on the tray of the seal plate on the ritual table.

Ni Yuan then asked Tie Jinjue to sit on the larger purple cushion.

Tie Jinjue asked Ni Yuan what he needed to do in a while, and Ni Yuan told him.

What's different from the last time is that this time, due to the different purpose of the ritual, during Ni Yuan's ritual, Tie Jinjue needs to put his hands together in front of his chest several times. Every time before he needs to do this, a white light will flash in front of his eyes.

Before this ritual, Ni Yuan still carefully placed the instruments she was going to use. She adjusted some of them several times to the level that was most conducive to receiving various information from the space. She did this to ensure that all possibilities were tested to prevent any omissions.

After finishing this ritual, she felt so heavy that it was indescribable. An expression of extreme helplessness was written on her face, making her entire face seem as if it was covered with black smoke.

She said to Tie Jinjue in a low voice that the ritual was completed.

When Tie Jinjue heard this, he felt something was wrong again. The two stood up from the purple and blue cushions respectively and walked towards the seal plate together.

Ni Yuan looked at the incense and candles that had been lit before, thinking about the light they had emitted before, but at this moment it seemed as if she saw only thick black smoke coming from those incense and candles.

Tie Jinjue asked Ni Yuan if he could take out the Kuanhong white jade from the tray at this time, and Ni Yuan said yes.

After she finished speaking, she stared at the incense and candles that seemed to be shrouded in thick black smoke. She wished that she could feel the brilliant light they once emitted, but she felt as if she was trapped in a world filled with black smoke.

Because of her heavy mood, Ni Yuan not only felt thick black smoke coming from the incense and candles, but she even felt that her surroundings, the entire room, and the outside were all filled with black smoke.

Because she needed to concentrate when she was doing the ritual, she had been controlling herself and trying not to let herself be affected by her mood. Her control was indeed very strong, and the whole process was not affected. However, when she walked to the seal plate, the feeling of sadness that had been suppressed before came over her, and she kept frowning.

Tie Jinjue of course sensed that Ni Yuan was in a bad mood, and he thought that the matter was serious. Because he felt bad, he wanted to ask Ni Yuan directly about the situation, but he didn't want to be immediately stimulated, so he didn't ask directly.

He took the Kuanhong White Jade off the tray and looked at it, then said to Ni Yuan, "It's the same as when I put it there."

Ni Yuan said: "Yes, the same."

Tie Jinjue knew that even if he didn't want to be provoked immediately, some things would have to be said sooner or later, so he started with the Kuanhong White Jade: "Master Ni, this Kuanhong White Jade once came near the Seven Star Zuiren Pavilion, a red line appeared on it, and now there are two on it."
