Yuan Tiangang looked at him coldly, and his words pierced his heart like a sharp knife, "I didn't expect that you are incompetent and useless! If time goes on, even if you use someone else to exchange blood, it will affect the fetus in Ji Ruxue's belly. Can you bear this responsibility?"

"As for sins, that's very simple. Do you think you don't have any sins on your shoulders? Back then, the late emperor had more than a dozen descendants, but why are you the only one who has survived to this day and grown up?"

"I'm telling you, your dozen brothers all died for you. Only their death could cover up your existence. How many people in the entire court died in order to restore the Tang Dynasty? Have you ever thought about this question?"

"Now, you don't want your children to bear the sins. If this isn't innocence, then what is it?"

"Born in the Li family, born in an imperial family, this is a sin he was born with. He has been carrying this sin since he came into this world. This is true for you, and for your child as well!"

The cold words dissected Li Xingyun bloodily and laid everything out in front of him. He had not thought deeply about these things before, but now, he was about to become a father, and there were some things he had to think about.

In the future, my children will follow the same path as me, shouldering the heavy responsibility of reviving the Tang Dynasty until they die, and pass it on to their descendants from generation to generation!

When he thought of that kind of scene, he couldn't help but feel fear in his heart, and he didn't want to go that step.

Seeing Li Xingyun's dull and terrified eyes, Yuan Tiangang was very satisfied. In the past, he always ignored what he said, but now it finally had some effect.

"You don't have much time left, make a decision early, or you will regret it later!"

The hoarse voice echoed in the yard, but Yuan Tiangang's figure had disappeared, leaving him standing there blankly, dazed and dejected.

Li Xingyun didn't know how he came back, nor did he know what he was doing. He just felt his mind was blank and confused. Only the words "You don't have much time left" kept echoing in his mind.

"Xingyun, what's wrong with you?" In the room, Ji Ruxue looked at Li Xingyun, who had a strange expression on his face, and asked with concern.

"Xue'er, I'm fine, just a little tired." Li Xingyun forced a smile and comforted her.

However, the two of them had been together for so long that they were already very familiar with each other. Seeing his appearance, Ji Ruxue knew without even having to guess that it must be Yuan Tiangang who had appeared again.

In this world, he is the only one who can make Li Xingyun become like this.

Although she was worried, Ji Ruxue did not ask any further questions. She just held him against her chest, gently stroked his hair, and said nothing.

Silence is better than words at this moment. What he needs is not questions, but a warm hug. Men also need comfort.

The next day, when Ji Ruxue woke up, she found that Li Xingyun had left long ago.

At this time, Li Xingyun was bringing Lvliu and knocking on Meng Po's room door.

Now, the only ones who can help him solve this problem are the Bad People, and he has made a decision.

Chapter 228: The Evil Man

"You want me to settle this girl?" In the room, Meng Po looked surprised. She knew the purpose of this girl's coming here, but Li Xingyun wanted to send her away now.

Li Xingyun nodded seriously and said, "There are many people in this world who can be exchanged for blood. It doesn't have to be an innocent person. It would be fine if I didn't see her, but if it is within my ability, there is no need to attack an old and weak person. The world is already bitter enough."

"But have you thought it through? Without her, who will you find to replace Ji Ruxue's blood? You don't have much time left." Meng Po was not surprised at all that Li Xingyun could do such a thing on impulse.

But she is a bad person now and cannot do whatever she wants like Li Xingyun. There are some things she must ask in advance.

"Not yet. I just want this girl to return to normal life and live the rest of her life in peace. These things are not something she should endure at her age. It should not be difficult to find someone in this world who can be used for blood transfusion." Li Xingyun answered in an orderly manner, and it was obvious that he had already prepared a plan in mind.

"Please go back and come back to me for help after you find a replacement. Otherwise, I'm sorry I can't do anything for you." Upon hearing this, Meng Po refused outright.

Now Li Xingyun does not have the right to order her around. Theoretically, she only obeys Yuan Tiangang's orders. Meng Po had already noticed that Yuan Tiangang did not trust her as much as before. If something went wrong again, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Okay, I understand." Li Xingyun was silent for a moment and did not ask again.

Saying these words three times is as plain as water. Saying them only once is enough.

Outside the room, Lvliu was still cowering, looking around anxiously. She didn't understand what Li Xingyun and the others were talking about, such as blood transfusion or any other affairs of the world.

She only understood that she had been sold to this man and would have to listen to him from now on.

"Squeak!"

The door opened, and Li Xingyun walked out, forcing a smile at her, "It's okay, let's go back."

Then he went to find Li Wentong again.

"Brother Li, may I ask if there is any method in the Twelve Caves that can revive the dead?"

When Li Wentong heard this, he knew what he was here for, "Yes, there is indeed a way in the Twelve Caves that can bring people back to life. Legend has it that there is an extremely precious Gu egg in this world, which can mobilize the last bit of Yang energy in the body of the dead, thus bringing the dead back to life."

"Presumably, the hidden danger in Ji Ruxue's body is this Gu egg, right?"

"Brother Li has a sharp vision. I admire him."

Li Wentong was indifferent and said calmly, "It's very simple to solve this hidden danger. All you need is a blood transfusion. In this world, almost all poisonous insects can be cured by blood transfusion. With Corpse Ancestor Hou Qing helping you with the blood transfusion, this matter is of course foolproof. Do you have any other questions?"

"Besides blood transfusion, is there no other way?"

"No, if we want to completely eradicate the hidden danger, we have to have a blood transfusion. I heard that Ji Ruxue is pregnant?"

"Yeah, not long."

"Then you better hurry up. The later you wait, the more likely something will go wrong. The risk of blood transfusion is not small."

Not getting the answer he wanted from Li Wentong, Li Xingyun sighed inwardly, "I understand."

After breakfast, Li Wentong took Li Siyuan, the empress, Meng Po and a group of bad people to look for the rotten soil in Shu, leaving Hou Qing, Ji Ruxue and Li Xingyun in the inn room.

"Xue'er, it seems that you have to have a blood transfusion this time. If you delay, the poisonous eggs in your body will enter the fetus, and the consequences will be unimaginable." The situation has developed to this point and has finally taken the direction he does not want to see.

Ji Ruxue felt bad when she thought of the weak girl next door, but she also thought of the child in her belly. After all, maternal love overcame pity. "Okay, we can do a blood transfusion, but that girl is too pitiful. Let's do another one."

When Ji Ruxue saw the girl, she seemed to see her past self. She was originally an ordinary citizen who was separated from her relatives during the war. Later, she drifted to Qi State and was adopted by the empress to become a maid in Huanyinfang.

"Well, innocent people shouldn't be involved in this matter. I think there are many people in this world who deserve to die. It's not difficult to find one!"

In the end, Li Xingyun compromised. Faced with the imminent hidden danger, he had to sacrifice other people's lives to save his wife and children.

To be fair, he didn't want to do this, but he had no other choice but to settle for the next best thing and find a very evil person to exchange blood with.

The next day, he went to see Hou Qing.

Under a plum tree in the yard, Hou Qing pressed the holes of the flute and played slowly. After two days of practice, he finally made great progress. The music he played was no longer as unpleasant and noisy as before, and it had some shape to it.

After the song was over, Hou Qing opened his eyes and looked at Li Xingyun, "Have you decided?"

Obviously, he knew what he was coming for.

"Well, it's decided." Li Xingyun nodded.

"Okay, let's get started right away." Hou Qing said as he prepared to go upstairs.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Li Xingyun quickly stopped him, "Wait, I have a request."

"What? You still have requests?" Hou Qing's eyes widened, he was numb. It has been delayed for several days, and now you say you still have requests. Why didn't you say it earlier!

"I would like to ask Corpse Ancestor to change the subject for blood transfusion." Li Xingyun pleaded with a serious face.

Hou Qing sighed, feeling a little tired. After all, this guy was the one that Yuan Tiangang had his eyes on. Forget it, just bear with it. "Who do you want to replace? I'll find one for you."

"It doesn't matter if they are beautiful or ugly, as long as they are guilty of heinous crimes and deserve to die."

"This is easy!" Hearing this, Hou Qing nodded, turned around and left.

A day later, he brought back a woman.

"Corpse Ancestor, when did you become fond of this?" In the yard, Li Siyuan just came back and saw the coquettish woman standing next to Hou Qing, and said with a faint smile.

"It's not me who wants to use this person, it's Li Xingyun who wants to use her. How could I be so tasteless?" The Corpse Ancestor looked at the sealed-mouthed woman with disdain and kept a distance from her.

"Corpse Ancestor, who is this woman?" Li Xingyun asked blankly as he looked at the beautiful young woman in front of him who had an extremely beautiful appearance, moving eyes, and exuding a coquettish aura.

"Yes, this is the person you asked me to find. This woman committed adultery with her lover and gave birth to three children. After the affair was exposed, she not only did not change, but became even worse. In the end, she angered her husband to death. The matter was reported to the government and she will be executed next month. I thought it was appropriate, so I rescued her."

"How is it? She deserves to die, right?"

Hearing this, Li Xingyun nodded in agreement. He really deserved to die. Not killing him would not be enough to appease the public anger!

"Okay, I've found the person for you. If there's nothing else, let's get started quickly." Hou Qing urged.

"Okay, I'll get ready right now."

After saying that, he ran upstairs.

Chapter 229 Blood Exchange

"Xue'er, the person has been found. We can start the blood transfusion."

Ji Ruxue was in a daze in the room. Li Xingyun suddenly came in. She was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, I'll go down right away."

"Well, I'll wait for you outside."

Ji Ruxue straightened her dress, looked at her thin face in the bronze mirror, subconsciously touched her belly, and a look of kindness flashed in her eyes.

She pushed the door open and walked out, "Nebula, let's go downstairs. I'm ready."

Seeing that her expression was normal, Li Xingyun breathed a sigh of relief, took her hand, and they went downstairs together and came to the yard.

At this time, Hou Qing also arranged for people to help, "We will give Ji Ruxue a blood transfusion later, everyone come and help."

"Please give us your orders, Corpse Ancestor. We will never neglect them." Meng Po expressed her opinion immediately.

When the others heard this, they also responded and agreed. It was something that was beneficial and cost-free, so why not do it?

Hou Qing pondered for a moment and made arrangements, "Okay, Meng Po, Li Siyuan, and the Empress, the four of you stay here. Everyone else go out and have someone guard this courtyard. Don't let anyone in."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xingyun and Ji Ruxue came down from the stairs.

"Everyone go out and guard the yard, don't let anyone in." Meng Po glanced at the bad guys guarding in the dark and tapped her crutch lightly.

Afterwards, a faint sound was heard, and several figures were seen climbing over the wall of the yard.

"Ji Ruxue, come here." Hou Qing said to her.

Ji Ruxue let go of Li Xingyun's hand and walked over slowly.

"You don't have to do anything else. Just stay calm and keep your mind calm. Leave the rest to us. Don't worry, I'm here, nothing will go wrong."

After listening to him, Ji Ruxue bowed to him and thanked him, "Thank you for your help, ancestor."

Hou Qing accepted it calmly, took the red umbrella from his waist, and took out the Blood-Crying Record from inside the umbrella ribs, "Sit down."

Then, he turned to Li Xingyun and said, "Li Xingyun, you are learning the most masculine and masculine Tiangang Jue. Staying here will hinder your ability to perform the spell. You should go out and wait first."

At this moment, Li Xingyun was dumbfounded. He thought he could help here, but he didn't expect to be kicked out.

Although he really wanted to stay here, because of Ji Ruxue, he had no choice but to leave.

Ji Ruxue gave him a comforting look. Li Xingyun nodded and walked out of the courtyard. Then, she sat down cross-legged on the grass obediently with her eyes closed.

Hou Qing glanced at everyone, his expression becoming serious. "Next, everyone listen carefully. You need to quickly circulate your Qi through a small cycle and transfer it into her Xinshu, Shenmen, Guanyuan, and Huizong acupoints respectively."

"Li Wentong, you have learned Gu magic in Twelve Caves, and you can deal with many Gu insects. Just use Qi to attack her Baihui point, and I will be responsible for performing the magic. Do you understand?"
