Although this talisman diagram can only be used once, that’s alright. As long as it allows for escape at the most critical mont, that’s enough. It can always be drawn again later!
Chiang Xiao’s eyes lit up at his explanation.
"Is it really used like this? Oh my, then this talisman diagram is truly a priceless treasure! Brother Xinian, even if you were really sent to Ke Ku Li, when I want to find you, couldn’t I just appear right by your side?"
ng Xinian’s head was filled with black lines.
Upon learning how the talisman diagram works, their first thoughts were about getting to each other’s side.
"We were just in the sa house, so it’s normal for it to work, but we still don’t know if it works over long distances. If the range is truly limited to a thousand miles, it would beco ineffective once you’re in Ke Ku Li."
Chiang Xiao sighed at this.
That’s true; it’s unlikely it can teleport over such a long distance.
But if the range truly extends to a thousand miles, it would still be great.
At least the distance from the Capital City to Anbu Town, to City M, and to many other cities wouldn’t exceed a thousand miles.
"I’ll redraw one; let’s test it again this ti."
Chiang Xiao got a burst of energy, imdiately going into the space and drew two talisman diagrams.
"This talisman diagram likely doesn’t work just by carrying it," ng Xinian said, "It should be opened to take effect."
As he spoke, he folded the half talisman diagram, put it in his pocket, and told Chiang Xiao to fold hers too, then said, "I’ll head out, you wait ten minutes before opening it. If it doesn’t work, I will co back."
Chiang Xiao nodded.
How does one handle feeling so excited and thrilled?
"I didn’t see how you moved just now; it was so fast that I believe nobody could see it."
ng Xinian ntioned this as he stepped out the door.
Thinking for a mont as he exited the door, he also closed it.
Once ng Xinian’s footsteps faded, Chiang Xiao went out and latched the door.
If we’re testing it, let’s test it seriously.
She needed to see whether this movent is still constrained by these elents.
If the door is locked, can she still go out?
Returning to the room, she nervously watched the clock.
Once ng Xinian exited the premises, he quickly ran toward Liuli Street.
By this ti, night had already fallen deeply.
While waiting earlier, he hadn’t realized, but now he noticed that Chiang Xiaoxiao took quite so ti drawing the talisman diagram.
Apparently, it’s quite challenging to draw this talisman diagram.
Originally an extrely complex design, morizing it accurately and reproducing it without error, he admired Chiang Xiaoxiao’s skill.
Liuli Street now was devoid of people, a bustling street in the morning, now dark and desolate.
However, he could reach Youqingwei Teahouse with his eyes closed.
Rumor had it that Old He and Old Lee occasionally took turns keeping night vigil here, about seven or eight nights a month, unpredictably, to prevent anyone from discerning a pattern.
Chiang Xiao didn’t much like having people sleep overnight in the shop, so she didn’t have them keep watch every night.
ng Xinian approached the outside of the shop, pressed against the door to listen for a while, and confird there was no one inside.
He looked up at the second-floor window, stepped back a few paces, took a running start, and leapt like an Agile Monkey up, grasping the window ledge. With his other hand, he took out a small knife, wedged it into the window seam, swiftly opened the window, and entered.
Finding a safe place, if Chiang Xiaoxiao could truly appear instantly, it would prevent anyone from witnessing a suspicious sight like seeing a ghost.
He didn’t need to check the clock; his internal timing was quite accurate.
By now, it was nearly ten minutes.
