Longevity: From Being Pushed By The Witch

Zhu Xing District.

In a luxurious mansion.

After using a Concealment Talisman, a Concealment Spirit Talisman, and a Breaking Restriction Talisman, Autumn Rain quietly leaped onto a main room in the west courtyard.

Just then...

A creaking sound of a door being pushed open came from afar.

Looking up, Autumn Rain saw a drunkenly dressed young man, with two young women on his arms, swaying as they walked into the mansion.

Behind him were two Gold Core experts.

However, after the two Gold Core experts escorted the young man into the mansion, they stopped at the entrance and closed the main gate.

"Beautiful ladies, today, this young master will show you what it means to fight like a dragon with two phoenixes!"

"Giggle... Young master is truly amazing!"

The two young women smiled enchantingly and then supported the young man as they entered the main house where Autumn Rain was.

Autumn Rain prostrated on the roof, lifting the tiles above and staring intently at the movements inside the room.

Three people...

As long as the right opportunity was found, they could easily achieve an instant kill!

Like this...

After about half a stick of incense, the young man in fancy clothes had thrown the two young women onto the bed.

He raised his head high, a self-assured smile on his lips. Then he untied his robe, focused on one of them, and made his move.

Autumn Rain on the rooftop was already preparing to take action.

After all, when doing such things, people were most focused. As long as she struck while the three were in high spirits, she could definitely achieve an instant kill!

However...

Just as Autumn Rain was still looking for the so-called perfect opportunity, she saw the young man in the room suddenly sheathe his sword.

Autumn Rain widened her eyes, her face filled with astonishment.

Did the opportunity just...

slip away like that?!

Not only her.

Even the two young women in the room were equally astonished.

They had been brewing their emotions for so long, preparing to cooperate with the young man in fancy clothes and put on a show, but now... it was all gone?!

Autumn Rain, prostrated on the roof, tightened her grip on the dagger in her hand.

She stared fixedly at the unsatisfied young man. After hesitating for a moment, she took out a soundproofing talisman from her storage ring.

"Fortunately, that guy still had a soundproofing talisman on him!"

Autumn Rain activated the soundproofing talisman and then threw it into the room.

In the next moment, she rapidly descended, swiftly eliminating the two young women, and then reached out her right hand, firmly grasping the young man's face.

At this moment, he was completely drunk and had no time to react to what had happened. When he saw that Autumn Rain was a woman, instead of being frightened, he revealed an infatuated expression.

Autumn Rain's eyes filled with disgust, and in the next moment, the ring in her hand emitted a faint light, and a tremendous suction force instantly enveloped the young man's body.

Not long after...

The young man visibly weakened at a speed visible to the naked eye until he became a lifeless corpse. Only then did Autumn Rain throw him aside.

The whole process took only a few breaths of time.

There wasn't even the slightest sound.

She took off the storage ring from the young man's hand and then glanced at the two young women she had killed.

After that, she leaped into the night sky, disappearing without a trace.

Half an hour later.

The two Gold Core experts standing at the entrance were chatting aimlessly.

One of them suddenly spoke up:

"Is it about time?"

"Let's wait a little longer. Our young master cares about his face. It wouldn't be good to go in and get scolded at this time."

"Then let's wait for another half an hour."

With that, the two young men resumed their aimless conversation.

If it were before, they might have released their divine consciousness, enveloping the main room. On one hand, they could listen for any movement and satisfy their cravings. On the other hand, they could also guard against anyone sneaking in.

Hmm... Actually, with the existence of restrictions, the second reason is somewhat far-fetched.

Their main purpose is still the first one.

However, what they never expected was that the first purpose was so unnecessary.

Inside the room, there was simply no sound that they wanted to hear!

At first, they thought their young master had used a soundproofing charm. It wasn't until they boldly entered the room with their divine consciousness one time that they discovered the truth...

---

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Ji Boying once again arrived at the Affairs Pavilion.

Upon learning that he would be assessed by the high-level talisman master from headquarters today, Ji Boying's face showed a hint of nervousness.

He has never had an accurate reference for his level of talisman mastery.

Now, being able to showcase his level of talisman mastery in front of the genius talisman master from headquarters might give him an idea of his own abilities.

"Ji Master, no need to be nervous."

Su Xiao brought Ji Boying to the elegant room where Su Ling was, smiling as she spoke.

"Su Master just wants to see the current level of Ji Master's talisman mastery and, by the way, formulate a detailed cultivation plan for Ji Master. So... Ji Master just needs to perform at his normal level."

"Thank you for the reminder, Su Protector."

Ji Boying slightly bowed to Su Xiao.

"Go in!"

Su Xiao smiled faintly and made a gesture of invitation.

Ji Boying nodded and walked towards the room.

Seeing the door close again, the originally relaxed and gentle smile on Su Xiao's face was instantly replaced by a deep worry.

"I hope you can pass the assessment!"

"Otherwise... I will truly have to apologize with my life."

The elegant room where Su Ling was located was decorated extremely simply.

Apart from two seven-foot-long tables and white jade cushions, there was nothing else.

"Ji Fellow Daoist, please."

Su Ling sat opposite Ji Boying, gesturing for him to sit down.

"This assessment is mainly to test Ji Fellow Daoist's talent in talisman mastery and... his current level of talisman mastery."

"So, during the assessment, I hope Ji Fellow Daoist will do his best."

"Yes!"

Ji Boying responded extremely respectfully.

"Good, then... let the assessment begin!"

Su Ling said softly, then took out an ordinary talisman pen without any special enhancements and three hundred pieces of animal skin talisman paper, dividing them into six piles on the table.

"In order to test Ji Fellow Daoist's true level of talisman mastery, we won't use spiritual pens for the assessment. We'll only use ordinary talisman pens. I hope Ji Fellow Daoist can understand."

"Of course, I understand!"

Su Ling nodded slightly and said,

"The assessment question is very simple. There are a total of three hundred pieces of talisman paper here. Ji Master needs to draw thirty exquisite copies of each of the six derivative talismans, which will be considered as passing the assessment."

"As for the assessment time... it will be forty-five days. Completing it within forty-five days will be considered a pass, while exceeding forty-five days will be considered a failure!"

"Forty-five days?!"

Ji Boying exclaimed.

"Is there a problem?"

Su Ling furrowed her brows slightly.

Thirty exquisite copies of each talisman, with an eighty percent success rate for the Thunder Strike Talisman, a seventy percent success rate for the Demon Thunder Talisman and Water Thunder Talisman, and the remaining three at a fifty percent success rate.

That's only a total of three hundred pieces.

On average, it takes a little over an hour to draw one talisman, including rest time. Forty-five days is more than enough.

If he can't even do this, then she really won't be able to save Su Xiao.

Just as Su Ling's thoughts were swirling, she heard Ji Boying speak softly...
