Chapter 1414: Chapter 1413: Acting

Even though Beisitian trusted that old man very much, would there still be problems in the end?

If further examinations revealed any suspicious points, they would definitely continue to study and test them.

But right now, the two siblings had no legitimate reason to stop anything; if they spoke rashly, it would only arouse Sun Zhancheng’s suspicion and serve no other purpose.

Jing Changle was still sitting in the hall, completely unaware of the worries of the Gong Family siblings.

Sun Zhancheng had been watching Jing Changle’s expression all along. Children at this age were not yet good at fully hiding their emotions; if anything was off, there would definitely be some clue on his face.

Yet seeing Jing Changle sitting somewhat dazed in the middle, it was obvious he knew nothing.

"If I get examined again, can my problem be cured?" Jing Changle asked.

Sun Zhancheng saw the hope in his eyes.

Leng Qingyi said, "That still depends on the result. If there’s any possibility, we’ll spare no effort to cure the pride of our sect."

Leng Qingyi was a man in his fifties, clean?shaven, with darker skin. The first time Jing Changle saw him, he was deeply impressed by that pair of clear, bright eyes of his; the rest of his features were actually not so easy to remember.

When he said this, he didn’t put on any expression of overt sincerity or earnestness. His tone was calm, but his eyes showed seriousness; it was very clear that he truly meant what he said.

Jing Changle, half intentionally and half not, swept a glance at Sun Zhancheng sitting at the head seat, just in time to catch the cold sneer and ridicule that man hadn’t had time to collect.

This head of the household clearly didn’t think that way; spare no effort to obstruct his own position, perhaps.

"Then I must trouble the seniors to run the tests on me," Jing Changle said.

The Gong Family siblings sighed inwardly. This test, whether they wanted it or not, had to be done. At this point they could only choose to trust that elderly man Qingyu spoke of, or rather, trust Beisitian’s judgment.

They replaced the testing talismanic water, and this time it was personally prepared by Leng Qingyi. He was already very adept with spirit, especially with damage to spirit; having him do the talisman making could not be better.

"You need to drink this talismanic water," Leng Qingyi said.

In light of what had just happened, these words counted as him asking for consent.

Jing Changle’s gaze went to the Gong Family siblings; seeing Gong Chengyan nod, he then tilted his head back and drank down the talismanic water.

This action made Sun Zhancheng feel a little better. At least it showed they weren’t treating anyone with targeted bias.

In fact, even without the Gong Family siblings, Jing Changle would have drunk this talismanic water. It wasn’t that he trusted Leng Qingyi, but that Leng Qingyi had made the talisman on the spot, and he had watched the entire process.

With his current level, a talisman of this not?too?complicated sort was downright easy; there was absolutely no obstacle at all.

There was no problem with the talisman making, no problem with the supplementary ingredients; what was there for him not to dare drink?

After drinking the talismanic water, Jing Changle also quietly observed his own reactions. Since the damage to his spirit was a false appearance, he wanted to see how this talismanic water carried out its detection.

The Gong Family siblings by his side kept their faces calm, but inside they were already extremely tense. They knew how skilled Leng Qingyi was; they had wanted to say something just now, but hadn’t had even the slightest chance.

After Jing Changle drank the talismanic water, he felt his mind jolt, like the feeling of having eaten a mint; only this coolness wasn’t in his mouth, but in his head.

The sensation was rather strange; for a while he couldn’t even describe it. It was something he had never experienced before, which made him find it very novel.

Leng Qingyi stared fixedly at his expression from the side. He had a Sensitive体质 and could perceive changes in spirit, but mere perception was not enough.
