Holding the space chat group, the cannon fodder female supporting role ascended

Chapter 707 Prerequisites 2
"Sheng Xia failed to protect her soul during the possession, and the possession lasted for more than ten years, giving the evil spirit time to merge with her. Even though Fellow Daoist Su sealed her away, it was still too late. Moreover, she didn't have an eighth-grade alchemist master to support her, so how can she be compared to Xia Yiwan?"

Yunxi explained calmly.

She didn't believe Su Jing was unaware of Sheng Xia's current situation, as the other party's cultivation level was above hers.

Su Jing knew that Yun Xi was telling the truth, even more bluntly, but he still wanted to try harder, so he said:

“Fellow Daoist Ranxi, I know it’s a bit presumptuous of me to say this, but you are someone who has received the complete inheritance of the Immortal Medicine Sect, so your alchemy skills are certainly not bad. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I am willing to try. Please feel free to make any requests you may have.”

Yunxi knew that Su Jing wouldn't give up until he achieved his goal, so after pondering for a moment, she said:

“Fellow Daoist Su, I can remove the evil soul, but Sheng Xia’s already diminished soul will definitely suffer secondary damage. The soul-nourishing potion I refined only plays an auxiliary role. To completely restore her soul, it depends on her own will.”

I can't guarantee she'll wake up; she might remain in a deep sleep forever, unable to replenish her soul until the end of her life. Do you still want to try?

Su Jing's heart clenched as he looked at Sheng Xia's pale face inside the ice coffin, feeling hesitant. Su Miao, standing beside him, remained silent. He wasn't Sheng Xia's Daoist partner; he could only stay by her side as her younger brother. He couldn't bear the consequences of making a decision. If Sheng Xia truly remained asleep forever, he would hate himself.

Yunxi was much more at ease. After all, she had already made it clear beforehand that she would lend a helping hand, but she couldn't guarantee it, as there were too many variables during the treatment process.

After a long silence, Su Jing seemed to have made up his mind and said:
"Please lend a hand, Fellow Daoist Ranxi. I will do my best to cooperate. If Shengxia is ultimately unable to awaken, it is her fate. At least I have done my best."

Upon hearing this, Yunxi flicked her sleeve, and a jade slip and a contract appeared before Su Jing:
"This jade slip contains the spiritual plants needed to refine the Soul Nourishing Potion. I believe that with the Su family's resources, this should not be a problem. If there are any that cannot be found, you can exchange them with the Immortal Physician Sect. I will give you advance notice. You can go and find Fellow Daoist You Zisang. I hope you can find all the refining materials as soon as possible and send them over."

The other document is the contract, which contains everything I've said. If you have any questions after reviewing it, you can modify it. I will only begin treatment after the contract is signed. This is for the good of both of us, since there's no trust between us, only a transaction. The contract guarantees the interests of both of us.

Su Jing nodded. He had the same concern, worried that Ranxi wouldn't do her best to heal Shengxia. Now that she had brought it up first, he naturally had no reason to disagree.

So after reading the contract, Su Jing readily placed his divine imprint on it, and Yun Xi also placed her imprint on it. The contract was established, and then it turned into two streams of light that flew into the space between their eyebrows respectively, binding both of them. Whoever violated the contents of the contract would suffer a soul-tearing pain.

Now that the matter had been settled, the Su brothers did not linger. They needed to prepare the spiritual plants required for refining the potion, so they took their leave and left the courtyard.

After the two left, Lili jumped out of the spirit beast pouch, tilted her head, and asked:

"Your Excellency, there is no need for further treatment. Why do you still need to intervene?"

Yun Xi narrowed her eyes and said:
"They begged me to come. If I refuse too decisively, do you think the Su brothers will hate me?"

"Didn't His Majesty say he didn't care about these things?"

“I don’t care, but the Su family is behind them, and now that my mother is back, I have to be careful. If my energy is all tied up with the Su family, do you think the evil cultivators might take the opportunity to attack me?”
Why would I make enemies? As long as Sheng Xia is alive, the Su brothers will treat me with utmost respect, and might even protect me.

After listening, Lili blinked and continued to ask:
"What if Shengxia didn't wake up in the end?"

"Don't worry, I'll make sure she doesn't ruin my reputation."

After Yunxi finished speaking, she casually sent a message talisman, and then waited in the courtyard with Lili in her arms.

Less than fifteen minutes later, Bingli excitedly stepped into Yunxi's courtyard. The first question she asked after sitting down was:

"How did your talks with the Su family go? Did Sheng Xia implant the evil spirits into the bodies of the Su family members?" Yun Xi raised an eyebrow and asked.
"I can't just give you my inside information for nothing!"

Upon hearing this, Bingli's beautiful face immediately showed a fawning expression, and she said with a smile:

"Your Excellency Ranxi, I wonder what it is about me that you have taken a fancy to? Just ask, and I will offer it to you with both hands."

Yunxi smiled slightly, thinking that Bingli was indeed a remarkable person, and so perceptive, so she said directly:

"I want one of your 'Ice Soul Cicada'."

Bingli was somewhat surprised, but she still told the truth:

"Your Excellency Ranxi, it's not that I'm unwilling to give you an Ice Soul Cicada, but these little things are all descendants of the Cicada King, and they only obey the Cicada King's orders. The Cicada King is my natal spirit insect, and the companion spirit insect of the cultivation technique I practice."

So even if I send it, that little guy might not listen to you, and forcibly severing the connection between the little insect and the Cicada King will render it just an ordinary spirit insect, unable to play any role.

Yunxi understood and said:
"Since that's the case, I won't force you. However, I need your help this time. Consider it payment for the inside information I provided. How about that?"

Bingli's eyes flickered, and she whispered:
"Your Majesty, whose body do you wish to implant the 'Ice Soul Cicada' into? Su Jing? Or Su Miao?"

Yun Xi smiled slightly, but instead of answering Bing Li's question, she replied with an unrelated answer:

"Although Su Jing's original Daoist partner, Sheng Xia, was alive, she was possessed by an evil spirit, and the spirit succeeded. However, Su Jing noticed this at the crucial moment when the evil spirit was devouring Sheng Xia's soul, and sealed her away."

Before they came, they must have found out about Xia Yiwan's situation. They thought I could preserve Shengxia's soul and remove the evil spirit, so they came to me, wanting to use my mother as a bargaining chip to negotiate with me.

Bingli frowned after hearing this and said:

"So you agree?"

"How could that be? Do you know how my mother became Su Jing's Daoist partner while Sheng Xia was still alive?"

Bingli's eyes lit up, sensing the secrets of a reclusive family, and she immediately pressed for details:

"Tell me quickly, and I'll help you analyze it."

Yunxi briefly explained the transaction between Feng Jiayun and Su Jing, which made Bingli's eyes widen, not to mention Lili, who had deliberately avoided her before, had the same expression.

"Tsk tsk, I never would have guessed that the Su brothers were such hypocritical people. The most innocent one is your mother, who almost became a bargaining chip in the hands of the Su brothers."

Fortunately, you were decisive enough to completely extricate your mother from the Su family. If she had been left in the Su family, she probably wouldn't even know how she died.

Immediately, as if realizing something, Bingli exclaimed softly:
"So, you want the Ice Soul Cicada for Sheng Xia!?"

　My darlings, this is the third update tonight, see you tomorrow!
