Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

Chapter 249: Chapter 183: Lingshan Sword Immortal Revisited

”I’ll go to the Cyan Ruo Sword House once more.”

After hesitating for a long time, Shen Wen’an slowly stood up and said.

As things stand now, taking a gamble might turn out alright, but not gambling is waiting for a slow death.

”Don’t rush, we can wait a little longer on this matter.”

Shen Yuan hesitated for a moment before speaking.

He planned to wait some days to let the White Jade Turtle Shell accumulate some Spiritual Charm, then deduce the results.

Involving high-level matters like Dao Seal Jade Carving and the Cyan Ruo Sword House, it’s unlikely the White Jade Turtle Shell will offer much guidance, but as long as it can provide some prophecy and deduce good or bad omens, it would offer a reference.

Shen Wen’an nodded and sat down.

The group continued to discuss matters regarding the Dao Seal Jade Carving.

Wei Qiuling seemed to suddenly realize something and immediately frowned, saying, ”I remember that junior brother mentioned inside that cave mansion that what’s recorded on the Jade Stele is ’Cold Dew,’ and dad’s prior hexagram prophecy also showed ’Cold Dew Great Fortune.’

”The current solar term is Cold Dew, so... what happens after Cold Dew?”

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.

Shen Wen’an pondered for a moment and said, ”We entered the cave mansion before Cold Dew but didn’t find any trace of the Dao Seal Jade Carving.”

”I think that after Cold Dew, the Jade Stele might disappear immediately...”

Shen Wenxing frowned slightly upon hearing this: ”There are twenty-four solar terms in a year, Cold Dew lasts only about half a month.”

”Does that mean in the future, we can only comprehend those things for at most half a month?”

”The owner of that cave mansion surely likes to make things difficult...”

Shen Yuan shook his head slightly upon hearing this: ”Such wondrous objects that can relate to solar terms might not necessarily be arranged by the owner of the cave mansion.”

”Father even suspects that the owner discovered this natural wonder by accident, choosing that cave as their dwelling and setting up a grand array for comprehension.”

Wei Qiuling nodded: ”Father is probably right.”

”That Jade Stele seems like a living thing growing out of the mountain rocks, genuinely without any signs of human intervention.”

The four of them chatted idly for a long time, until the east began to lighten when Jiang Xiuqi arrived from afar, manipulating the wind.

After Wei Qiuling informed Jiang Xiuqi of Shen Yuan’s plan, he pondered for a moment and also felt that there seemed to be no other way for now.

”During Cold Dew, I’ll stay in that cave mansion.”

”On the one hand, to see if I can comprehend something from the Jade Stele, and on the other hand, to verify your speculations.”

Jiang Xiuqi spoke.

His cultivation was already infinitely close to the Golden Core Realm, and if he could comprehend something from the Dao Seal Jade Carving this time, it might enhance his chances of successful Core Formation.

Wei Qiuling nodded and said, ”Master, be careful.”

After all, the Dao Seal Jade Carving is extremely high-level, and even just comprehending it could lead to unexpected events.

Jiang Xiuqi smiled and waved his hand: ”At my age, I am not a reckless person.”

”I’m off.”

After bidding farewell to everyone, Jiang Xiuqi left the Shen Family.

As Shen Yuan and a few others returned from the entrance to the courtyard, a maid hurried over, bowed, and said:

”Master, Patriarch, something has happened.”

Shen Wenxing frowned: ”What is it?”

The maid said: ”Young Master Chongxu and Madam Hu have gotten into a quarrel.”

Upon hearing this, the group quickly went to the backyard.

In front of Zhao Xuan’s small courtyard, ten-year-old Shen Chongxu was pushing Hu Mei’er towards the gate.

He kept shouting:

”Get out!”

”My mother doesn’t want to see you!”

”If you don’t leave, I won’t be polite!”

As he spoke, a faint wave of spiritual power actually emanated from his body, as if he intended to use a technique!

Seeing this, Shen Wenxing immediately dashed forward and kicked Shen Chongxu to the ground!

”You little brat, what are you up to!?”

Despite taking a kick, Shen Chongxu didn’t cry. He stood up and looked at Shen Wenxing angrily, appearing very defiant.

Hu Mei’er, holding the frightened Shen Li who was hiding behind her, gave him a concerned glance and then turned to Shen Wenxing, bowing: ”Big brother.”

At this moment, Shen Yuan and Shen Wen’an had also arrived.

”Grandfather...”

Seeing Shen Yuan, Shen Li quickly ran over, her little face still showing a hint of fear.

Shen Yuan bent down to pick her up, then turned to Shen Chongxu and asked: ”What happened?”

Although Shen Chongxu dared to act foolishly in front of his uncle Shen Wenxing, he instantly behaved when facing Shen Yuan.

”Grandfather...”

He bowed and then glared angrily at Hu Mei’er, saying: ”Mother’s condition just improved, and last time this vixen came, I don’t know what she said to Mother that upset her so much. Mother coughed up a lot of blood and still can’t get out of bed.”

”And now she dares to come again!”

Upon hearing this, Hu Mei’er quickly explained: ”I came to deliver medicine to Sister Xuan.”

”No need!” Shen Chongxu shouted!

”Insolent!” Shen Yuan gave him a stern look and said: ”Step aside!”

Shen Chongxu clenched his fists but did not dare to continue blocking the gate and moved aside.

Beside him, Wei Qiuling came forward to support Hu Mei’er and said: ”Sister Mei’er, don’t mind Chongxu, he...”

Hu Mei’er shook her head slightly.

The last time she visited Zhao Xuan, she had only briefly mentioned her and Shen Li’s identities and hadn’t even reported Shen Wenyan’s death when Zhao Xuan immediately coughed up a lot of blood and fainted.

Fortunately, she had taken Shen Yuan’s advice and brought a stalk of Nanhua Twin Grass from the Black Water Pavilion.

She quickly refined a leaf of the Nanhua Twin Grass and administered it to Zhao Xuan to stabilize her condition.

This time, upon her return, she had refined the remaining Nanhua Twin Grass into a medicinal liquid, intending to further treat Zhao Xuan.

Who would’ve thought, before she even entered the courtyard, she was blocked by Shen Chongxu.
