After a master of metaphysics severed ties with his family, the whole family was filled with regret!

Chapter 80 The Art of Sorcery, Dispelled with a Displacement Talisman
Having embroidered Xiao Beiming's name, Nalan Qingyin knew she couldn't keep it for herself. She felt a little disappointed, but there was nothing she could do about it.

Seeing Nalan Qingyin reminded Luo Chujiu of something else:

"When will Second Senior Brother and Third Senior Brother arrive in the capital? Didn't Fourth Senior Brother say they would arrive in the next few days? Three days have passed, why haven't they arrived yet?"

"I was just about to tell you this. I received a letter from my second senior brother saying that he encountered a rainstorm on his journey and will be delayed for a few days. My second senior brother is with my third senior brother."

Upon hearing this, Luo Chujiu frowned slightly, expressing her concern:
"Heavy rain? Then we really need to be careful. Let's take it slow."

"That makes sense. Let's just wait a few more days."

Luo Chujiu nodded and didn't say anything more.

Nalan Qingyin watched Luo Chujiu embroider a handkerchief for a while in her room before leaving.

"Miss, you've been embroidering for so long, please take a break and don't strain your eyes. You can continue embroidering tomorrow, there's no rush."

“No, I’m going to finish embroidering this handkerchief today. When Xiao Beiming comes to visit me tomorrow, I’ll give him the handkerchief.”

Once Luo Chujiu starts something, she has to finish it before she can rest at ease.

Seeing this, Fei Yun didn't know how to offer any further advice.

Luo Chujiu only paused for a short while when it was time for dinner.

But after finishing her meal, she quickly continued embroidering. Feiyun even regretted suggesting that the young lady embroider a handkerchief for the prince.

After Fei Yun went to rest, Luo Chujiu was still embroidering. Finally, just before midnight, Luo Chujiu finished embroidering the handkerchief.

Luo Chujiu put the handkerchief under her pillow, planning to give it to Xiao Beiming tomorrow. She was also looking forward to seeing Xiao Beiming's expression when he saw that she had given him the handkerchief!
Luo Chujiu was about to lie down and rest when she suddenly felt a pang of heart palpitation. She frowned, clutched her chest, and immediately threw out a coin to calculate.

Southwest? Isn't that where the Luo family mansion is located?
Someone is trying to harm me? And it's even using witchcraft!

With Luo Chujiu's profound magical skills, ordinary witchcraft could not harm her. If one wanted to harm her through witchcraft, one would need the blood of her closest relatives and her own personal clothing!
At this moment, Luo Chujiu felt as if her heart was being burned by fire! She was in great pain.

She immediately pulled out a pain relief talisman from her bosom and inserted it into her body. Slowly, the restlessness within her body subsided.

After her heart resumed beating normally, Luo Chujiu had no intention of giving up. She walked out of the room and headed straight for the Luo residence!

At this moment, Xiao Beiming's heart was also burning with fire, and the mark on his palm was turning red and hot!
Something must have happened to Xiao Jiu!
However, the excruciating pain prevented Xiao Beiming from getting out of bed, and it took a while for the pain to subside.

He looked at his palm again; the mark was still flashing.

No, he has to go and see what happened to Xiao Jiu!
However, the moment he got out of bed, everything went black, and he lost consciousness.

But soon, he woke up again.

The one who awakens at this moment is sixteen-year-old Xiao Beiming.

With a cold look in his eyes, he opened the door directly.

It was Nan Ke's turn to be on night duty, and he was awakened by the sound of the door opening.

"Your Highness, it's so late, where are you going?"

Xiao Beiming glanced at Nan Ke with a faint look, and Nan Ke instantly realized that the person in front of him was the Crown Prince!

"Greetings, Your Highness. Why did you suddenly wake up? Has something happened?"

"I need to go out for a while. Go and prepare the horse immediately."

Since Xiao Beiming had made this request, Nan Ke dared not delay and immediately went to prepare the horses.

While Nan Ke was preparing the horses, Xiao Beiming immediately used the Liu Ren divination method to deduce Luo Chujiu's current location, and had a general idea of ​​the situation.

"Your Highness, the horses are ready."

"Ah."

After giving a light reply, Xiao Beiming left Nan Ke behind, leaped onto his horse, and departed swiftly.

Nan Ke could only watch Xiao Beiming's figure gradually disappear into the distance.

Fortunately, the Xuanming Sixteen Riders would be with the young master, so he didn't need to worry too much about the young master's safety. After leaving the Imperial Preceptor's residence, Luo Chujiu used a speed-up talisman to travel ten steps in one step to the wall of the Luo residence. With a leap, she entered the Luo residence without alerting anyone.

She quickly calculated the exact location to cast the witchcraft and headed straight for Luo Jiang's courtyard!

At this moment, Lady Luo Jiang was still awake. The candlelight flickered in the room. She went to the window and looked inside.

At this moment, Luo Jiangshi was burning something in the brazier, muttering something under her breath, which Luo Chujiu couldn't quite hear.

But she noticed with her sharp eyes that blood was dripping from Luo Jiang's palm!

So that's how it is! Her estranged biological mother was actually using witchcraft to harm her!

Luo Chujiu was about to rush in and ask for an explanation when she suddenly felt a metallic taste in her throat and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Luo Chujiu staggered, but was caught firmly in someone's arms.

"What?"

"Shh, don't talk."

"who is it!"

Upon hearing the noise, Lady Luo Jiang quickly stopped what she was doing, stood up abruptly, and looked out the window.

Xiao Beiming led Luo Chujiu into hiding in the darkness.

Lady Luo opened the door and windows and looked carefully, but she did not see anyone.

Was she too nervous and misheard?
When Luo Jiang returned to the room, the fire in the basin had gone out, and her witchcraft could no longer be performed. If it was interrupted, it would lose its effectiveness.

"Are you the fifth senior brother?"

Luo Chujiu looked up at Xiao Beiming and asked.

"Otherwise, do you expect that sickly fellow to save you? Come with me first and we'll talk about that later."

After saying that, Xiao Beiming took Luo Chujiu away, mounted his horse, and galloped back to the palace.

Upon hearing the sound of horses' hooves, Nan Ke immediately went to greet them.

Who would have thought that his young master went out alone, but came back with two people! He brought back his future princess as well.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with Miss Luo?"

When Nan Ke approached, he was shocked to see the bloodstains on Luo Chujiu's body.

"Prepare hot water; I need it."

Xiao Beiming ignored Nan Ke's question, gave the order, and then carried Luo Chujiu back to the bedroom in his arms.

Luo Chujiu was extremely weak at this moment. The pain relief talisman she used was only temporary. Once it wore off, it would have a doubled backlash.

"Fifth Senior Brother, what are you doing?"

Luo Chujiu was startled when she saw Xiao Beiming pull out a dagger.

Xiao Beiming did not answer. Instead, he ran his dagger along his fingertip, then took a blank talisman from Luo Chujiu's pocket and quickly drew a few strokes on it.

A substitution symbol is now drawn.

"Drip your blood on it."

Xiao Beiming's words were not to be questioned, and Luo Chujiu understood what Xiao Beiming meant. She obediently did as he said, biting her finger and dripping blood onto the replacement talisman.

Then Xiao Beiming burned the talisman in his palm, and from then on, the witchcraft that had been affecting Luo Chujiu became his own.

Since Luo Jiangshi had no kinship with Xiao Beiming, did not possess any of Xiao Beiming's personal clothing, and did not have his birth date and time, any further use of witchcraft would be ineffective.
