Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 235

Jiang Xiu had lost his passport and his money. Although Long Yingqing was unrelated to him losing his money, this guy was her star of calamity. Her luck would turn worse if she didn't send him out so she could only grit her teeth in anger. "Follow me!"

Jiang Xiu followed behind her with a smile and casually passed a comment, "Looks like many of your family members live here."

"Why do you care about that?"

It had already reached the stage where this girl couldn't have a conversation with him unless she was bickering with him. Jiang Xiu also stopped speaking and followed her to a room deep within the castle.

The room had a nostalgic feel of the medieval European era to it. She looked over and found a bill of 500 Euros then handed it to Jiang Xiu. "Alright then. From now on, never appear before my eyes again."

This was really something. She was making our Deity Xiu leave after just giving him 500 Euros. Only, Jiang Xiu also wasn't interested in getting involved with this girl.

Jiang Xiu took the money and turned around to leave. Though 500 Euros weren't much, the amount was enough for him to leave this place and reach Gaulle City, but after walking a few steps, Jiang Xiu stopped and asked a question. "Just one last thing. Can I ask you a question?"

Long Yingqing impatiently crossed her hands across her chest, "Ask."

"Did you experience something weird during your childhood? Also, does your illness calm down when you live in this castle?"

Ling Yingqing was stunned and utterly shocked. When she was four years old, she had gone through an awful experience. Her fever kept rising, and even the doctors couldn't do anything about it. Everyone in her family believed she would definitely die, but her grandfather who loved her a lot brought her to Europe. Just like the coincidence which had taken place today, they passed by here and rested in this place for a night. She actually didn't cry or make a noise, and her illness began to improve a lot. Therefore, the Long family bought this place, and Long Yingqing recovered soon after that.

This matter was only known by her close kin!

"How do you know about that?"

Jiang Xiu smiled coolly, "I noticed that your soul's compatibility with your body isn't that high. If I haven't guessed it wrong, your soul was switched when you were a child. The so-called soul switching only happens when a child's holy spirit hasn't fused completely, and it's also possible for wandering souls to invade your body when you're seriously ill or dying. Haven't you ever heard about children's nature changing a lot after they recover from a serious illness? That's due to soul switching."

Long Yingqing sneered at him, "If my soul was switched by someone, why wouldn't I know about it? Stop talking rubbish."

"After the wandering soul invades your body, you won't have any memory of it, so it's natural that you don't know it happened. You'll always believe you are you. If I'm right, you definitely don't remember anything before the time you fell ill."

"I was too small back then, so I naturally won't remember it."

"Don't try to fool me."

"Wow, I got despised again." Jiang Xiu commented.

If Ling Yingqing's soul were really switched out, it'd mean that the little girl's soul had already died. The current Long Yingqing was the real Long Yingqing, but it was just that the something often went wrong with the bodies of those who had their soul switched out. They'd feel unwell, or dizzy or chest pain due to the imperfect compatibility between the soul and the body.

"Leave!"

After Jiang Xiu left, Long Yingqing was left in a daze. She looked at the mirror and suddenly felt the reflection in the mirror to be unfamiliar to her, as if she had never seen it before.

"That bastard must've said that to scare me!"

Long Yingqing believed this to be the case, but she still had a little doubt whether she had her soul switched out. Whether the original soul had already died when she was four years old and the body was taken over by a ghost which began to live its life as Long Yingqing.

"Bah! What are you even thinking, Long Yingqing!"

Bastard, was there a need to mess with my mind before you left?

However, Long Yingqing vaguely remembered reading about such a possibility in an ancient Greek book. Moreover, her grandfather had never allowed her to visit monasteries right from her childhood, especially those ancient European monasteries.

"As if that's possible!"

Jiang Xiu was actually just scaring Long Yingqing just now. However, the matter about the incompatibility between her soul and body was real. From her pale face and contrasting red lips, it could be made out that she was bewitched by a foreign entity once. This didn't imply her soul was switched out but rather that she was used as a sacrifice.

When Long Yingqing had come here back then, someone must've used a Soul Insertion Art to treat her and received the death tribulation in her place. It was done correctly, and the method through which it was done was something even Deity Xiu thought was pretty good so it shouldn't have turned out like this.

The regretful bit was that person didn't remove the dead soul fragment from her body. There were only two possibilities. One was that the person couldn't remove it, but since that person was able to use such a high-level skill like inserting a soul to die in place of Long Yingqing's soul, there shouldn't have been any difficulty in removing the deal soul from inside her, which only left the other possibility. That person had left behind the dead soul fragment to use Long Yingqing's body as a sacrificial medium and gather her life force or energy to nourish themselves.

There was no free lunch in this world. The reason Long Yingqing suffered through various illnesses was the sequelae of being used as a sacrifice.

…

The rain fell harder and harder on the grasslands surrounding the vast royal castle, the winds causing the grass to sway along with the rain. It was full of European charm and contained a sinister as well as a mysterious aura to it. As night fell, the surroundings turned even more oppressing.

Late into the night, Jiang Xiu felt like he heard some weird yells which seemed like a beast's yet like a human's while dreaming. Anyway, he couldn't sleep well at all.

The following day was cloudy, and though it didn't rain that hard to make people worried, they weren't happy about it. As far as the eyes went, the entire sky seemed to drop quite low.

Jiang Xiu turned on the TV in passing. Foreign news was being broadcasted right now. A tall building had caught fire in the city of Gaulle, and the female tv anchor was saying something regarding it, but Jiang Xiu couldn't make sense of it. He looked at the damage which had occurred to the skyscraper on TV, but it didn't seem like it had happened due to a fire. It seemed more like as if it was cut through by something very sharp and resulted in most of the building section being sliced off perfectly at the height of almost 30 floors.

Over a ten square meters of the building structure was sliced off at such a height…

"Hmm?"

A servant knocked on the door then came inside. He appeared to be Chinese and could speak fluent Chinese as well. "Mister, Miss has told me to ask you when you are planning to leave."

Hehe, she actually sent someone to drive me away.

Jiang Xiu pointed towards the tv anchor then asked, "What's she saying?"

"Oh. This is today's special news. She's saying some complex things like space collapse or something. That the section of the building had disappeared from our space-time and appeared at a space-time intersection. Some phenomenon or something… It's all nonsense as there's no textual research to prove it. It must be a sham to create hype, that's all."

Jiang Xiu looked at the precise cut, and his first reaction was that it was the result of using a sword or saber art. But no one in this place could use that.

"Mister, when do you plan to leave?"

"Right now!"

The servant believed Jiang Xiu would stay here, but actually, Jiang Xiu was in a rush as well. Even breakfast wasn't prepared for him when they went down. The intent was clear. She wanted him to leave as soon as possible.

He sat in the car and was taken to the highway. Many cars passed by here and there were even foreigners who drove classy high-end vehicles. Not long after, Jiang Xiu was able to stop a car and promised the driver to give him 100 Euros to drive him to Gaulle. The man accepted the offer.

After traveling for two hours, he finally reached Gaulle then called Wang Xintong and explained the situation to her. She said, "This wouldn't have happened if I was with you."

"Say the important things."

"I'll send someone to the Gaulle Embassy to arrange for your passport. Someone from the Wang family will come to receive you after that. You can make the specific arrangements after that."

Quite quickly, the person arrived in front of Jiang Xiu while driving a car and brought the new passport and landing visa for him. It was a 40-year-old man. "Mr. Jiang, this is the photo we've gathered. This person is selling the thing you want."

Jiang Xiu picked it up and glanced over it. It was a European man, and it'd be quite challenging to look for a single person in Gaulle. Moreover, it was also possible this man wasn't in Gaulle.

"Go to the Montague Building where the fire accident happened today…"

The man was astonished, "Why are we going over there?"

Jiang Xiu didn't act polite towards him and sent him a cold glare. The man immediately realized that he had spoken out of turn and thus lowered his head. He opened the door for Jiang Xiu, after which he sat in the driver's seat, locked the seat belt then drove the car towards the destination.
