Chapter 136: Chapter 136 Borrowing Life"Xiaoya’s condition isn’t looking good. President An said that with Xiaoya like this, it’s very likely she won’t make it through..." Upon hearing this, Little Lajiao’s eyes immediately turned red. "It’s too tragic for Sister Xiaoya; I don’t want her to die." Shen Antai looked towards Shi Yaoguang, seeking her opinion. "Master, do you have any method?" Shi Yaoguang slightly lifted her chin and said faintly, "Let’s take a look first." Shen Antai nodded quickly, wanting to invite her in. seaʀᴄh thё Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Everyone felt that Old Shen had been fooled by a young girl. They didn’t believe that Shi Yaoguang possessed any real skills, so their gazes towards her were filled with caution and suspicion. "Old Shen, maybe you should reconsider?" Someone directly spoke up to advise. "Vice-President, we know you are eager to apprentice, but you can’t just apprentice under anyone! Who doesn’t have the ability to deceive others these days? You may be confused, but we are all clearheaded." "Besides, Xiaoya’s condition is already bad. If something worse happens, it will be difficult for us to explain to President An." Shen Antai was somewhat angered by their questioning of his master. Hearing the latter part, he became puzzled. "Isn’t the President here?" Master Yu sighed. "The President has gone out." "Where has he gone?" "...The Ghost House." "What!" Shen Antai immediately became agitated. "Why didn’t you stop him from going to the Ghost House?" "We had no choice. The President’s practice involves exorcising ghosts and evil spirits. With business at the Ghost House, how could he ignore it? Besides, Xiaoya met with trouble at the Ghost House. He might find a solution there." Upon hearing this, Shen Antai’s expression fell. He knew President An’s intentions, but he was powerless to stop him. Shi Yaoguang also gleaned a general idea but did not know what the Ghost House they referred to was. Seeing her curiosity, Shen Antai gave a brief explanation. "It’s an ancient house that has been inherited for a thousand years, and the original owner was even a royal relative..." "Xiaoya went down the mountain for her practice, and I don’t know who was so malicious as to let Xiaoya take on the business of the Ghost House. With a thousand years of inheritance, not even President An could surely handle it, yet Xiaoya went, and now, God knows when she will wake up, while President An has gone there as if seeking death." "Vice-President, what you’re saying isn’t right. Who said that the President going there means certain death? Maybe he has some way to solve the problem." "Nonsense! If he were capable, the Ghost House’s issues would have been resolved long ago. Would it have dragged on until now? I think he’s just tired of living too long and desperately seeking death!" "Old Shen, this..." As they spoke, the situation looked like it might escalate into an argument. Suddenly, a piercing scream came from inside the house. Shi Yaoguang hurried inside, and the rest followed quickly behind. An Xiaoya had been placed in a gloomy room, and as soon as one entered, their vision fell into a blind spot. The curtains around were drawn tightly shut, not letting in a sliver of light. Shi Yaoguang couldn’t help but ask, "Why did you seal the room up so tightly?" Someone explained, "After Xiaoya came back, she developed a fear of sunlight. Initially, she was just sensitive to the sun’s rays, but from the day before yesterday, she couldn’t even withstand half of the light. We had no choice but to make this room completely dark." Hearing this, Shi Yaoguang’s brows furrowed tightly. Blocking out all the light was certainly not a good solution. An Xiaoya had encountered this situation before. Speaking of which, she had the advantage of quick transmigration. In the worlds of quick transmigration, she always had a mission to complete. Before taking on the missions, her own skills were limited. After quick transmigration, each world had a main focus, and if she wanted to complete her missions, she had to master various skills. Exorcism was one of them. Not all worlds in the Three Thousand Worlds were at peace. She had visited several supernaturally haunted worlds, learning the skills of a Heavenly Master, and she was even considered one of the best. She had already determined An Xiaoya’s situation. An Xiaoya was suffering from Yin Soul Possession. "What did you say? Yin Soul Possession?" As soon as Shi Yaoguang voiced her guess, she was met with skepticism, "Chairman An is a renowned Heavenly Master; he did not notice Xiaoya’s possession, and you, just by saying it, assert that Xiaoya is possessed?" Shi Yaoguang frowned, "You may not believe what I say, but it’s true that An Xiaoya is suffering from Yin Soul Possession." "No, to put it more gravely, she has been subjected to a life borrowing." "The essence of life borrowing is not much different from Yin Soul Possession." A member of the Celestial Master Association asked, "According to you, is Xiaoya possessed or has she been subjected to life borrowing?" "Life borrowing." Shi Yaoguang clarified the relationship between the two. "Yin Soul Possession, as the name suggests, means that a yin soul is hiding inside her body, sharing it with her." "Life borrowing is different, it’s about sharing her lifespan. Or rather, it turns her body into an entity that cannot be exposed to light, similar to a weakened spirit, appearing only at extremely yin times." Upon hearing this, someone gasped out in alarm, "Based on what you said, isn’t Xiaoya’s situation very dangerous?" "Yes," Shi Yaoguang spoke gravely, "The person borrowing life is rapidly absorbing An Xiaoya’s life; once her life is completely drained, she will die." "What should we do?" Little Lajiao’s voice rose with a crying tone, "Sister Xiaoya is so kind, I don’t want Sister Xiaoya to die." The person who had doubted Shi Yaoguang earlier couldn’t help but plead, "Is there any way you can resolve this, Master? If you can save Xiaoya, you will be our great benefactor!" Because of what Shi Yaoguang had said, everyone was more inclined to trust her. Shi Yaoguang’s expression became somewhat solemn, but in the darkness, no one could see her face: "An Xiaoya’s situation is somewhat complex, but it’s not unsolvable." "As long as Xiaoya can be saved, we agree to any condition!" "It’s not a matter of conditions," Shi Yaoguang explained, "An Xiaoya’s physical condition isn’t very good right now, to save her, we need to find the person who has borrowed her life." Upon hearing Shi Yaoguang’s coherent explanation, Shen Antai was a bit bewildered and asked in a low voice, "Master, aren’t you a cultivator? How come you are skilled in the work of a Heavenly Master too?" Shi Yaoguang dismissed his notion with calm composure, "I’m not a cultivator, I cultivate immortality." "Oh..." Just as Shen Antai was about to respond, he suddenly widened his eyes, "What did you say, Master?!" Shi Yaoguang: "I also know a bit of the Heavenly Master’s work, but it’s just superficial knowledge." Shen Antai disbelieved, "If you only have superficial knowledge, then there’s nobody who truly delves deeply into the subject."
