Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 443: Practice

Wu Xunsheng saw that the topic had finally come to an end, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He took the cushion from behind her and put it aside, gently helped her take off the clothes he had put on her before, put his arms around her in a more comfortable position, carefully helped her lie down slowly, and covered her with the quilt to prevent her from catching a cold.

Tie Hongyan didn't know if she would feel any pain while lying down, so she had prepared herself to endure the pain. Wu Xunsheng's attentiveness made her feel not only no pain at all, but also very comfortable during the whole process.

After Wu Xunsheng covered her with the quilt, he asked her, "Did it cause any pain just now?"

Tie Hongyan smiled and shook his head, saying: "You are very powerful. I didn't feel any pain when you helped me stand up, and it was the same when you helped me lie down."

Wu Xunsheng smiled and asked, "Are you feeling okay now?"

"Ah, very good."

"That's good, have a good rest." Wu Xunsheng still had a smile on his face.

"Well, I want to sleep for a while." Tie Hongyan closed his eyes.

After Tie Hongyan closed her eyes, Wu Xunsheng turned around and moved away from her bedside. The smile on his face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a frown.

Chapter 88

The next day, Tie Wandao sent his men to find a Taoist priest to perform a ritual for Tie Hongyan in her room. Before coming, the Taoist priest was told not to tell anyone why he was asked to perform the ritual, or he would die. After the ritual was completed, he and Tie Wandao walked out of Ao Qian Hall and then told Tie Wandao that his ritual was not enough to achieve the desired effect.

Tie Wandao was very angry and killed the alchemist with one stroke of his sword.

A day later, Tie Wandao sent his men to find the alchemists again and asked them to find more. Some alchemists heard that Tie Wandao had killed an alchemist, and heard that it was because the magic could not achieve the desired effect, so they did not dare to go. Some alchemists not only did not go, but also asked Tie Wandao's men to tell Tie Wandao that killing the alchemist who went to perform the magic would make it more difficult to achieve the desired effect. Tie Wandao's men could not find anyone willing to come for a while, so they had to forcibly bring a few alchemists to Tiecangting. These alchemists were also told in advance that they were absolutely not allowed to tell anyone the reason for looking for them to perform the magic, otherwise they would die. These alchemists tried to perform the magic in Tie Hongyan's room one by one, but still did not achieve the desired effect. After leaving Ao Qian Hall, Tie Wandao asked about the situation. One of the alchemists said that they performed the magic just to drive away some of the unfavorable information brought by Tie Wandao's killing of the alchemist last time. Tie Wandao was furious after hearing this, but he was worried that getting angry at the Taoist priests would bring more unfavorable information to Tie Hongyan, so he held back his anger, gave the Taoist priests some rewards, and let them go.

Another day passed, and Tie Wandao asked his men to go find the alchemists and tell them that no matter whether the magic could achieve the desired effect, as long as they did not tell others the reason why they asked them to perform the magic, they would not be killed, but would be given money instead.

With the precedent of those alchemists who took the reward and left without achieving the desired effect, and hearing what Tie Wandao's men said, some alchemists finally agreed to follow Tie Wandao's men.

This time, after the alchemists performed their own magic, they also worked together to perform magic for Tie Hongyan. However, after the magic, all the alchemists who left Ao Qian Palace told Tie Wandao that the magic that Tie Hongyan was possessed by was extraordinary and they could not achieve the desired effect with their abilities.
