As if afraid that Chen Yu would not give it to him, Elder Wu turned around holding the laptop, and left without any trace of nostalgia.

Looking at her grandfather who left without hesitation, and if Chen Yu didn’t understand what her grandfather came here for, she would have thought that she lived with him for 15 years in vain.

“Knock, knock!”

After two minutes, a knock suddenly sounded at the door again. Chen Yu opened the door and looked at her grandfather standing at the door in confusion.

“Girl ah, what’s your Wi-Fi password?” Elder Wu asked with a smile on his face.

“..”

The next morning, Mayor Chen went to work on the last day before the New Year, while Chen Yu accompanied Mother Chen to the hospital to see Chen Yang. Although Chen Yang was still in a coma, he was recovering well, and the doctor said that he would wake up in two days.

Mother Chen breathed in relief and didn’t let Chen Yu stay in the hospital much, considering that Elder Wu was home alone.

Chen Yu still had in mind to let her grandpa find a way to solve Lou Ming’s evil qi, so she didn’t insist on it. After listening to the doctor’s diagnosis of Chen Yang’s condition with her mother, she returned home and pulled Elder Wu, who was still sleeping, up from the bed.

“It’s almost eleven o’clock, and you’re actually still sleeping.” Chen Yu was shocked beyond belief.

“It’s due to old age. I just love to sleep,” Elder Wu replied as he walked towards the bathroom.

“..”?When have I not seen other old people?

When leaving from the Lou courtyard yesterday, Elder Wu finally loosened up and promised Chen Yu that he would find a way to help Lou Ming.

After Lou Ming tried to absorb Chen Yu’s evil qi yesterday, he repeatedly asked Elder Wu to conceal the matter because he was afraid that Chen Yu would feel guilty once she got to know about it. Although Elder Wu took the ‘blame’ for the sake of his granddaughter, his heart still had some change of opinion about Lou Ming.

Above all else.. the evil qi from Chen Yu’s soul abnormally leaked out on its own and flew towards Lou Ming. This baffled Elder Wu a bit. When evil qi flowed in the air, it would affect the people around, but it would never consciously move closer to a certain person.

If this was the peculiarity of Lou Ming’s physique, which automatically absorbed evil qi upon encounter, then Lou Ming wouldn’t have lived until now. That being the case, the only explanation was.. his granddaughter had some kind of connection with that kid.

“Grandpa, have you thought of a way?” Chen Yu couldn’t help but speak out and urge when she noticed her grandpa, sitting on the sofa and looking at Lou Ming in a daze since they arrived.

“What’s the hurry?” Elder Wu rolled his eyes at his granddaughter mercilessly before lazily asking Lou Ming, “Does your family have a lot of money?”

“Huh?” Lou Ming was stunned for a moment, then recalled the rules of the Sect that Chen Yu had mentioned, so he quickly responded, “Not bad.”

“Then go buy a few magic weapons first. It will be better if they’re spirit weapons,” Elder Wu instructed.

“Are there any specific requirements?” Lou Ming added.

“The stronger the magic power and the older it is, the better.” Elder Wu said, “Come back to me when you find them.”

“Okay.” Seeing that Elder Wu wasn’t inclined to say more, he stopped asking further. He just nodded and accepted.

Letting others follow commands without telling them the reason was how experts work. Chen Yu could tolerate Elder Wu treating others in this manner, but not when he was doing the same toward Lou Ming. So, she personally brought a cup of tea to him, smiled and asked, “Grandpa, you want a magic weapon specifically for what?”

“..” It was rare for Chen Yu to curry favor, so Elder Wu glanced at her and reservedly took a sip from the cup of tea, before saying, “Your family’s Third Brother..”

Chen Yu felt nothing wrong when he uttered ‘your family’s Third Brother’, but Lou Ming blushed awkwardly. He averted his gaze and repeatedly admonished himself:?Elder Wu certainly did not mean anything else. He just said it casually. Lou Ming, stop thinking askew for your own sake.

“His evil spirit emanates from the soul, which means that perhaps in his previous life, his soul was also stained with evil qi.” Elder Wu said, “I have taught you before. There are two kinds of evil qi in the world, one is purifiable, and the other isn’t. Lou Ming’s evil spirit belongs to the one that can’t be purified.”

“Is there really no way at all?” Chen Yu was even more flustered than Lou Ming, the person involved. “If it can’t be purified, won’t Third Brother have to carry the evil spirit at every reincarnation.”

“Listen to what Elder Wu has to say,” Lou Ming spoke to calm the excited Chen Yu.

Elder Wu glanced at the calm Lou Ming, raised his eyebrows, and inwardly praised, He’s unruffled even facing death.

In fact, Lou Ming didn’t respond much to the thought that he would reincarnate with the evil spirit over and over. Elder Yan had already said it when he was in Pingcheng.

“Theoretically speaking, there’s nothing in the world that absolutely cannot be done, and if there is, then either the strength isn’t enough or the method hasn’t been found,” Elder Wu said.

“What method?” Chen Yu’s eyes lit up.

“I haven’t found it yet.” Elder Wu sort of drawled the four words.

“..” Chen Yu held her breath in her chest. She felt that her grandpa was deliberately teasing her. In anger, she immediately moved to pull the old man’s beard.

Lou Ming also noticed that Elder Wu really liked to tease Chen Yu. In addition, Chen Yu was quite impetuous. A few words could ruffle her. He immediately held her down with a smile: “Shishi, don’t get excited and listen to your grandpa finish.”

Elder Wu looked at Chen Yu, whom Lou Ming calmed again, and continued, looking quite regretful, “At present, there is no way to purify the evil Qi in Lou Ming. Furthermore, even if I seal the evil spirit in him, it will not stop growing.”

“Because my evil spirit.. wasn’t formed by absorbing the evil qi from the outside, but is carried by my own soul,” Lou Ming reacted immediately.

“That’s right.” Elder Wu nodded. “Your soul is like a huge container of streams of evil qi. The longer the time, the more evil qi overflows from the depths of your soul, and your body will gradually be unable to withstand it. That’s also the reason you’re going to live long.”

“So.. Sealing is no longer useful to you.”? Elder Wu continued, “If you want to prolong your life, we can only separate the evil spirit in your soul.”

Separate?

Lou Ming looked at Elder Wu incredulously.

“Can the evil spirit in his soul be extracted out?” Chen Yu also heard this for the first time.

“Theoretically, it’s possible..” said Elder Wu, “There have been records about it in our Luoshan Sect’s ancient books, but no one has ever used it.”

Elder Wu turned to Lou Ming and said in a serious tone, “When I find an appropriate magic weapon, I will draw your soul and use a secret technique to separate the evil qi that will be overflowing in your soul, and then deposit it in the magic weapon. I don’t know what will happen in this process. Your soul is different from ordinary people’s soul. I can’t even guarantee that I’ll be able to send your soul back as it was after I drew it out.”

“That is to say.. It’s either a success or death?” Lou Ming concluded.

Elder Wu nodded:?So.. are you still going to try?

The author has something to say:

One day, the Chen family received a courier.

Mother Chen: What’s this?

Courier Brother: Mechanical keyboard, for playing games.

Elder Wu: That girl, Chen Yu, actually started playing games! This is confiscated! (The laptop keyboard is quite inconvenient ah)
