Qiao Jin had taken away his powers because he was going to die soon.

Death energy hovered over him, so he was either going to die upon being captured or be swallowed by the demonized Seed of Spirituality.

Monsters generally don’t have happy endings. The demonized Seed of Spirituality belonged to the Raksha Realm, and the Raksha Realm would eventually reabsorb it.

It was also helpful for Qiao Jin to collect the demonized Seed of Spirituality for her own use because it served as a good material for the magic formation that protected her from her own karmic backlash.

Of course, not every demonized Seed of Spirituality could be harvested, but it would be fine for her to harvest the demonized Seed of Spirituality of a person on the brink of death.

Qiao Jin left the place in a calm and composed manner. The woman glanced at her again, but she said nothing.

After Qiao Jin was gone, the man in the black t-shirt quickly caught up.

He looked around and saw the man’s traces, then he saw the woman who was washing clothes. He immediately asked anxiously, “Auntie, have you seen a disheveled-looking man in a black coat…?”

The woman didn’t wait for him to finish before she pointed the way.

The man in the black t-shirt immediately showed gratitude. “Thank you.”

Not long after he left to chase after him, the woman’s son arrived home from elementary school.

She’d had him at a late age, so she doted on her precious son.

It was already noon.

“Mom, what will we have for lunch?”

“I’ll stir-fry beans for you.”

The woman had indeed planned on stir-frying beans at noon, and naturally, she hadn’t taken Qiao Jin’s words seriously.

After the beans were stir-fried, the woman asked her son to eat quickly and go back to school.

Her son was eating in such a hurry that suddenly, he began to grimace as a bean just happened to get stuck in his throat.

The woman immediately screamed in alarm and started to panic because she didn’t know what to do.

Her son’s face quickly turned a bluish-purple hue.

At that moment, a man broke through the door. It was the man in the black t-shirt from earlier. f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m

He saw the situation in the house, and in seconds, as if he knew just what was going on, he slapped his palm on the child’s back with great force. With a “poof,” a bean popped out of his mouth.

“Phew–”

The child breathed in the fresh air and finally regained his strength.

The woman was crying hysterically. When she saw that her son was okay, she finally calmed herself down, and she thanked the man in the black t-shirt.

“Thank you, thank you, thank you so much.”

Cao Yikai stood up. “No need to thank me. You should be glad I happened to be here, or your son would’ve been a goner.”

The sizes of different beans varied, and the woman didn’t know how to give first aid. This sort of suffocation caused death very quickly, and the child would’ve been lost if aid had been administered a little later.

The child kept coughing until he finally regained his vigor, and the aunt suddenly thought of something. She said with frustration, “It’s my fault. A young girl told me not to stir-fry beans for the child at noon, but I didn’t listen because I didn’t expect my child to experience such danger!”

Cao Yikai’s eyebrows twitched. “Auntie, what are you talking about?”

The auntie simply kept crying. “That girl told me not to stir-fry beans for the child…”

Cao Yikai was shocked. “How did she know beforehand that you shouldn’t let your child eat stir-fried beans?”

Reality also dawned on her. “Yeah, I didn’t know that girl, and I had the beans in the back room. How did she know that I had even bought beans?”

Because of this, she felt that the girl must have been talking nonsense.

That wasn’t the point. Cao Yikai’s sharp intuition made him realize that something was very wrong. “Was she right here?”
