Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 3391 (Three Thousand Three Hundred and Ninety-One)

Ning Duanye could see that Tie Wandao's expression when he said that gave people a feeling of mocking him, but Wu Xunsheng still didn't wake up, he was still afraid, and felt uncomfortable after hearing those words, but still didn't dare to say anything.

Tie Wandao seemed to suddenly remember something and asked again, "Tell me what went wrong when you were chanting the Jingzhi Mantra?"

Ning Duanye said: "I don't know either. It only happened once!"

Tie Wandao raised his eyebrows and asked, "How many times do you want to go out?"

“Not even once.” Ning Duanye replied.

"When did the problem occur?" Tie Wandao asked.

"That's... what I just said... when I was reciting the sixth part of the Jingzhi Mantra." Ning Duanye replied.

"I'm asking about the specific time!" said Tie Wandao.

"I can't tell exactly when it will be." Ning Duanye said.

Tie Wandao asked: "Did Shao Zuying remind you according to what you wrote on the paper?"

"Yes." Ning Duanye replied.

"Was the problem solved smoothly later?" Tie Wandao asked.

Ning Duanye said: "It went smoothly."

"Apart from the problem you just mentioned, are there no other problems?" Tie Wandao asked.

"There are no other problems." Ning Duanye said.

"Did you tell Shao Zuying before you decided to perform a ritual to see if there was any chance of extending his life?" Tie Wandao asked. "No," Ning Duanye replied.

Tie Wandao asked: "Why don't you say it?"

"At that time... I immediately levitated him." Ning Duanye said, "Levitating him will cause him to lose consciousness temporarily."

"The paper you showed me before didn't say that the young clan hero would go into a stage of losing consciousness." Tie Wandao said.

"But...but the paper says something about Shan Fu." Ning Duanye replied, "In the opinion of us Taoist priests, Shan Fu will definitely cause people to lose consciousness temporarily."

"You alchemists know that Shao Zuying and I have never learned any magic. If you only write 'Shan Fu', of course people won't be able to see clearly what you are going to do!" Tie Wandao said.

Ning Duanye thought: The clan leader didn’t ask at that time. If he had asked, I would have explained it clearly.

"If the clan leader had asked me at that time, I would definitely not hide it!" Ning Duanye replied.

Tie Wandao thought: I wanted to ask, but how would I know how to pronounce the word "Shan" in this context? If I asked them how to pronounce a word, it would make people feel that I didn't understand, and I would lose face! In fact, I could have pointed at the two words and asked, but what should I say when I asked? Ask "What does this mean?" It still seemed strange, but it was not impossible. At that time, I was probably mainly concerned about things related to face, and I didn't think much about asking this question. Wouldn't it be okay for Ning Duanye to tell me on his own initiative? Couldn't he have taken the initiative to explain it in more detail? He didn't tell me on his own initiative at that time, and now he blames me for not asking!
As Tie Wandao thought about it, he stared at Ning Duanye, which made Ning Duanye even more frightened.

Because of his reputation, Tie Wandao couldn't tell everyone why he didn't ask clearly, so he just said to Ning Duanye: "Are you saying that I didn't ask, and it was me as the clan leader who made the mistake?"

"No!" Ning Duanye said, "That's not what I meant! I just wanted to say that if the clan leader asks, I will definitely tell him. I want to emphasize that I won't hide anything!"

Tie Wandao said: "You should take the initiative to speak, understand?"

"Oh, I know." Ning Duanye replied.

"Did you do something wrong?" Tie Wandao asked.
