Chapter 2390 (Two Thousand Three Hundred and Ninety) Measured
Tie Wandao had previously thought of putting the bowl with the pattern carved by the suicide into the fire when burning the relics. Even if the bowl did not necessarily change significantly when burned in the fire, most of the other relics would definitely change significantly. Some would be burned to ashes, and some would be burned beyond recognition. In that case, even if the bowl did not change much, when it was burned with the other relics, putting it at the bottom would not make him feel unhappy.

However, all the relics were gone, leaving only this bowl. If the bowl did not change much in the fire, he would naturally feel less satisfied. However, in order to save face, he had to burn it anyway, even though he knew that the bowl would not change much even if it was burned in the fire. After all, the bowl was a relic of the suicide. As long as he burned the bowl, even if it was just this relic, he would have done what he said before, and he would feel much more proud.

When he asked Tie Jinjue to take out the bowl, he said to Tie Jinjue, “After I let Li Pingrun finish what he should do, we will burn it.” The reason why he wanted Li Pingrun to finish what he should do was because he felt that this would give him more face.

In fact, after the three met that day, they had already talked about Tie Hongyan wearing the Yuanshuang Mingxin Stone and reciting the short spell that Tie Jinjue told her to test whether the cup with the pattern engraved by the suicide person had been cast a spell by someone.

Tie Jinjue told Li Pingrun that the result of Tie Hongyan’s measurement was that the bowl had not been cast a spell by anyone and would not have any negative impact on the people around it.

Hearing Tie Jinjue say this, Li Pingrun finally felt relieved.

When Tie Wandao forced Li Pingrun to think of a solution, Li Pingrun only speculated that if the owner of the Yuanshuang Mingxin Stone wore it and chanted a short spell to the bowl, he would know whether the bowl was related to magic. At that time, although he didn’t know whether this method would definitely work, he knew that this was the only way to achieve his goal.

If this method didn’t work, he didn’t know how Tie Wandao would blame him.

He had always hoped that this method would work. Now he knew from Tie Jinjue that Tie Hongyan had tried this method while wearing the Yuanshuang Mingxin Stone, and that this method was indeed feasible. Moreover, the test results showed that the bowl had indeed not been cast a spell by anyone, so he naturally felt more at ease.

Despite this, Li Pingrun was not completely relieved. At that time, he still clearly remembered what Tie Wandao said last time.

Last time, Tie Wandao once said to Li Pingrun: “I’m telling you, don’t think that as long as the young clan leader can test it out through the method you mentioned today, the matter will be over. Even if she really tests it out, you still have to come tomorrow and try it with your magic again.”

Li Pingrun was originally going to come “tomorrow” as Tie Wandao mentioned, but when the “tomorrow” came, Tie Wandao was busy with tribal affairs and had no time to see Li Pingrun, so he sent someone to tell Li Pingrun not to go yet and to wait until he sent someone to notify him again.

At that time, Li Pingrun felt that Tie Wandao’s behavior was a little abnormal. He thought that Tie Wandao was competing with him the day before and asked him to test the bowl with the pattern engraved by the suicide victim as soon as possible and give the results as soon as possible. Who knew that when “tomorrow” really came and Tie Wandao got busy, things were different.
