The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 918: Chapter 918: Why Do You Call Him Brother?

On regular days, it was only him and Uncle Ying, and occasionally Little Black, so they rarely prepared meals specifically. For a spirit cultivator of his level, even not eating for several days would have no effect, so he only instructed Uncle Ying to prepare some food when he was in the mood.

These days, however, he would ask Uncle Ying to deliver food to Youyou once a day.

But now, since there were guests, and whether or not the adults ate didn’t matter, Xiao Xue was still a child and could not go hungry, so Ning Shiqi had already instructed Uncle Ying early on to prepare some meals.

Living in this valley long-term, Uncle Ying, when idle, also grew some commonly eaten vegetables, so preparing a few small dishes was not a problem.

When he saw Xiao Xue coming to find him, he thought she was hungry and felt a bit of heartache.

But Xiao Xue shook her head at him.

”Uncle Shiqi, I came to find you not because I’m hungry, but for something else.” Xiao Xue looked up at Shiqi with a serious expression.

”Oh? What is it?” Ning Shiqi was a bit curious. In fact, he was quite surprised why Han Jing and the others would bring a child along when going out; it seemed too careless, even with protection. Now, looking at Xiao Xue, he felt she was an especially intelligent little girl, which only piqued his curiosity further.

Xiao Xue asked, ”Uncle Shiqi, do you have a way to save my Brother Lianwu?”

Hearing Xiao Xue’s words, Ning Shiqi chuckled softly, ”Why do you call him Brother?”

Clearly, by generation, she should at least call him Uncle.

Look, she knows to call him Uncle, so why call Ning Lian an elder brother?

Xiao Xue looked serious, ”Because I want to call him brother, Brother Lianwu is handsome.”

”Hehe,” Ning Shiqi was amused by Xiao Xue’s reason, but still seriously explained to her, ”The Soul Devourer Charm your Brother Lianwu is afflicted with is incurable. However, you don’t need to worry; after forty-nine days, he will be fine.”

He thought Xiao Xue was still young, and there was no need to explain the effects of the Soul Devourer Charm to her in detail.

But Xiao Xue suddenly extended her hand toward him, ”What if we use my blood?”

Ning Shiqi was momentarily stunned, ”Xiao Xue, what are you trying to do?”

Xiao Xue knew that if she couldn’t prove something, Uncle Shiqi wouldn’t trust her. Now that Uncle Yun Feng had not awakened, only Uncle Shiqi was left as the healer here, so she could only seek Uncle Shiqi’s help.

Suppressing the pain, Xiao Xue cut her wrist, and beads of blood emerged from the wound. Little Black, who had followed her in, suddenly got a bit excited, but eventually resisted pouncing on Xiao Xue.

Even Ning Shiqi was momentarily stunned by the scent of the blood, taking a few seconds to collect himself, and looked at Xiao Xue with some disbelief.

As a descendant of the Ning Clan, having lived through the divine clan era, he was well aware of the power contained in Xiao Xue’s bloodline. It was the most pure and even somewhat stronger divine bloodline; her blood indeed contained a powerful bloodline force, an immensely nourishing power.

If someone with ill intentions knew about this, it would undoubtedly lead to a bloody storm, so he was quite surprised when facing Xiao Xue. This child, knowing the powerful force her blood carried, still chose to tell him.
