"Earth Vein... Evil Qi... causes sickness?" Qiu Yuchuan repeated my words.
I nodded in affirmation.
This seed to have taken Qiu Yuchuan by surprise. He rose and paced a few steps, "Do you know that the Earth Veins near Snake Mountain are penetrated by the Nine Great Dragon Veins and are the least likely places to harbor filth?"
"Soone has tampered with the Earth Veins and disrupted the original Feng Shui." My learning of Mysterious Art was primarily in making clothes, I don’t know much about Feng Shui.
However, I still know the basics well enough, just like the Earth Veins being tampered with.
The disruption of an originally auspicious site might lead to its invasion by evil Qi.
Qiu Yuchuan probably assud that there was an issue with the Snake Sect and confronted them without a thorough investigation.
Indeed, Qiu Yuchuan looked at with an expression that seed to see through my attempt to exonerate the Snake Sect, he questioned, "In this world, mountains and stars cannot be moved, just as celestial phenona cannot be altered. Can the geomancy of mountains and rivers really be changed so easily?"
"There are always greater powers beyond our knowledge; changing the mountains and Earth Veins is not impossible, it’s just beyond your understanding." I was earnest in resolving the misunderstanding between the commoners at the mountain’s base and the Snake Sect and responded calmly.
Qiu Yuchuan’s eyes flickered as if sowhat persuaded by but his expression beca even more solemn, "To do this, it must take an expert of considerable rank. What is the point of troubling us, the commoners, like this?"
"I don’t know, just relax, the Snake Sect will help in investigating, and things will eventually be resolved." Although I knew a bit about Feng Shui, it was enough to convince Qiu Yuchuan.
But now, my role is akin to a communicative envoy, primarily tasked with soothing Qiu Yuchuan, the representative chosen from the disciples of the Horse Immortal to negotiate up the mountain.
While on the way here, Chang Hao told that Qiu Yuchuan had significant respect among the disciples of Horse Immortal, young though he was, but he belongs to an old generation of the lineage.
He was, in effect, the undisputed leader of this expedition.
A call to arms from him would see many followers.
They communicated with the Snake Sect through Qiu Yuchuan for any matters.
Being the leader, Qiu Yuchuan was undoubtedly sharp.
The haziness I had seen in his eyes before he gave several scrutinizing looks, "Perhaps this matter is unrelated to the Snake Sect, and we were too brash in our misunderstanding, but the commoners down the mountain cannot wait, with their flesh and blood they might not withstand even a day or half; please Madam, do not stonewall ."
Stonewall?
This man accused of stonewalling?
Alright, indeed, I was primarily here to engage and pacify Qiu Yuchuan.
In my heart, I never placed myself too highly within the Snake Sect.
Difficult decisions I dare not make hastily, but it seems the mountain’s commoners are implicated because of , and sohow I always felt this evil Qi from the Earth Veins was targeting ...
Yu Longting wanted to protect , which is why he brought to the Snake Sect to await childbirth, but as soon as I arrived... Oh dear...
Could I truly be a walking disaster, naturally jinxed?
I sighed internally and asked, "Then what do you suggest I do?"
"I see, Madam, wearing the Lin Family’s Demon-Breaking Hairpin and dressed in the Su Family’s Yin Yang Life and Death Embroidery." Qiu Yuchuan’s gaze was intense, piercing with insight, "The rumors must be true, Madam indeed is the heir of a Mysterious Gate noble family, your earlier words showed deep understanding of geomantic techniques, can you.. accompany down the mountain... to save the commoners who worship the Snake Immortal?"
"This..." I was montarily lost for words; Qiu Yuchuan seed young and not much older than .
His words were precise and flattering.
Phrasing it as saving the dawn’s commoners puts in a spot—if I refused, it would seem I was refusing to help those in need.
But with my limited knowledge, I worried I might make matters worse.
Chang Hao had been eavesdropping for a while and at this mont, hurried in, furious and glaring, "Preposterous! How dare you!! Our Lady of the Snake Lord is dignified and pregnant, yet you expect her to leave the sect and struggle down the mountain alongside you, healing people? How outrageous! You are rely a disciple of the Snake Immortal, without any real skill, relying solely on the spirit possession of the Snake Immortal to have your abilities; yet now you overstep your bounds with such ingratitude—"
