Chapter 454: Equipment

The men sent by Tie Wandao thought it was possible to find Chi Yue in the deep mountains and forests, but later, Wang Qi actually found her in the downtown. It turned out that after Chi Yue lost all her special abilities because of saving people, she lived in seclusion in the mountains and practiced from scratch for a period of time, but she didn’t recover much of her special abilities. Later, she needed medicine to speed up her practice, and two of the several herbs needed to make that medicine were not available in the mountains that season, so she went to the pharmacy to buy medicine.

Wang Qi said he wanted her to go to Tiecangting for something, but she said she needed to go to the mountains to practice as soon as possible, so it was inconvenient for her to go. Wang Qi immediately explained the situation to her, telling her that the young patriarch was injured by the demon king’s magic in order to fight the invasion of demons for everyone. After hearing this, Chi Yue decided to go to Tiecangting with him. Although her special ability had not recovered much at that time, she was proficient in demon-killing after all, and she felt that she might be able to give them some useful advice for reference.

In order to invite Chi Yue, Wang Qi told her the reason for the invitation without telling her in advance. Along the way, he reminded Chi Yue more than once that she must not let others know the reason for her invitation. Chi Yue promised Wang Qi and said that she would definitely do it and would not spread the matter. She also said that she usually lived alone in the mountains and rarely interacted with people.

Tie Wandao was scolding some of his men for not being able to find Chi Yue, so Wang Qi and Chi Yue came to Tiecangting.

In this way, not only did Tie Wandao reward Wang Qi, but Tie Wandao’s subordinates were also very grateful to Wang Qi. If Wang Qi had not invited Chi Yue to Tiecang Ting, they would have had to accept Tie Wandao’s punishment.

Tie Wandao and Chi Yue came to Aoqian Hall. After seeing Tie Hongyan, Chi Yue did not perform any magic, and went out with Tie Wandao. She whispered to Tie Wandao outside Aoqian Hall, “Since the magic of the young clan leader is very special, it is useless to rely on magic to achieve the effect you mentioned before. Judging from her situation, the demon king who hurt her has probably been a demon for more than 300 years. If you want to achieve the effect, you can only use ancient and powerful instruments to expel the evil spirit injected into her body by the demon. The age of the instrument does not necessarily have to be older than the demon king, but if it is too recent, it is usually difficult to have an effect.”

“What exactly do you need?”

“My power has not recovered much yet, so I can’t use it to determine what I need. Some things depend on chance.”

“Can I use the demon-identifying bell?” Tie Wandao asked.

“The demon-identifying bell can only serve as a reminder when a demon comes, but it cannot expel the evil spirit that the demon has injected into her body.” Chi Yue added, “From now on, we can only achieve the effect you mentioned if we find a tool that works within a month. If it takes more than a month, even if we find the tool, it will be useless.”

“In that case, will the evil energy remain in her body forever? If the evil energy is not expelled, will her body be further damaged?” Tie Wandao continued to ask.

“Neither. In fact, when a full year has passed since the demon injected evil energy into her body, the evil energy will automatically leave her, and her body will not be further damaged during this period. However, the consequences caused by the evil energy injected into her body before will not disappear with the departure of the evil energy. The effect you just mentioned… that you wanted to achieve… can no longer be achieved.” Chi Yue said carefully.
