My Lady Always Lacks Ambition

Chapter 1278 - 1200: Disgusted

Li Shan’er believed this.

Even if the villagers maintained the continuity of the village, believing the water from the ancient well could bring children and using this to exchange marriages, she thought there was no major wrong in it.

But she died again, reincarnating into a cat. Cats belong to the yin, and when it was born, it was during a completely yin hour. It sneaked to the ancient well and was eaten by blood leeches, consuming its essence and blood.

She resented deeply, her yin soul lingering, wandering by the well, and she wasn’t devoured by the Gu God only because she carried karma, someone gave her the protection of merit.

This merit was given by her old parents before dying.

"Do you think you deserve this merit?" Qin Liuxi was disgusted, pinched the spell, and drove it away.

Regardless if she deserves it or not, the merit was given before her parents died. Whether her cat soul could survive or disappear depended on destiny.

Qin Liuxi never imagined she would disgustedly catch a cat soul just because she was annoyed, and the villagers of Ancient Well Village were truly not innocent either; they clearly knew everything, yet to continue living, kept committing sins, deceiving outsiders to come and sacrificing children.

They deserve to die.

Qin Liuxi’s gaze was dark and unclear, lowering her eyes, grabbing her left index finger, suppressing the vicious energy.

Karma...

Qin Liuxi thought of the karma of human lives Si Lengyue bore, her face like frost.

It’s truly not worth it!

She sat cross-legged, formed hand seals, first performed a Grand Circulation, silently recited the Heart Sutra, until her mood calmed, then turned and entered the book building of the Si Family Ancestral Land, found some rare books, and began to study.

The next day.

When Si Lengyue came over, Qin Liuxi was surrounded by papers, each one drawn with an Array Map, she picked up one and glanced at it, then looked at the person still calculating, and sat down.

Since ancient times, Array formation has been extremely taxing both mentally and intellectually, requiring precise calculation and repeated verification to arrange an unbeatable perfect array formation.

And this also requires strong spiritual power and cultivation.

From these chaotic drafts, Si Lengyue sensed her anxiety.

Qin Liuxi let out a breath, turned her head, seeing her, lay down on the spot, and said: "Feeling better?"

"Hmm." Si Lengyue said: "You wouldn’t have been calculating here all night, would you?"

Qin Liuxi closed her eyes pretending to sleep, said: "I’ve rarely researched the arrays of the Witch Clan, now that I have the opportunity to check it out, naturally I must cherish it. What’s interesting about arrays is, the more you evolve them, the more you find them ever-changing, quite intriguing."

As she spoke, she took out the God Formation she had drawn.

Si Lengyue stared closely, her brows furrowed, and said: "Is this the Sacrificial Altar?"

"Have you seen it?" Qin Liuxi sat up.

Si Lengyue thought for a moment, went to the attic to fetch a scroll and opened it, saying: "This is the altar used by our Witch Clan’s High Priest during sacrificial ceremonies, see if it’s similar."

Qin Liuxi suspended it with spiritual power and compared it with the God Formation, saying: "It really is, almost identical, hardly any difference."

"Does this altar have an array set up?"

Qin Liuxi stared at the array map, said: "To become a god, there’s an altar and sacrifices, naturally there must also be an opportunity, otherwise it can’t summon a Heavenly Tribulation. But, what is the intention of your High Priest?"

In the picture, the High Priest, with hands raised, had Xuanhuo Snakes coiled around their body, fiery snakes burning fiercely, looking extremely intense.

Si Lengyue said: "This is a sacrifice."

Qin Liuxi grabbed her wrist: "What did you say? Sacrifice, using oneself?"

"Don’t you remember what Asa said? Back then, our Si Family ancestor sacrificed their Power of Soul to kill him, only then could they finally suppress his soul and couldn’t scatter it directly." Si Lengyue pursed her lips and said: "No matter if it’s witch, Dao, or Buddha, among all cultivation, there is no greater power than sacrificing oneself, you should know that too."

This path of sacrifice is also the path of fate, even Heavenly Dao is helpless.

Otherwise, why would those crazed alchemists, striving to create divine weapons or treasures, willingly sacrifice themselves, because of fearlessness, even the Heavenly Dao can only be amazed and fulfill them.

And cultivators, at the last moment to slay evil, also sacrifice themselves for the greatest power, likewise for the Evil Path.

Si Lengyue continued: "Our Witch Clan’s High Priest sacrificing themselves must have a great ambition, just like the Si Family’s hundred-year Blood Curse, seeking to glimpse a trace of Heavenly Secret, also attempted the path of sacrifice. Thus, in sacrifice, there is no greater offering than oneself. Take us, if it weren’t for the Black Witch Saintess sacrificing herself back in the day, the Si Family wouldn’t bear this hundred-year Blood Curse."

Qin Liuxi’s mind buzzed, said: "Si Luo doesn’t care whether we break this small array eye or not, then I probably know what his trump card is."
