Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1882 (One Thousand Eight Hundred and Eighty-Two) Hour

Tie Wandao said, "No matter how good the other people in your sect are, another Taoist priest told me that I can only ask you to do this. I can't ask your fellow disciples to do it because you are the only one in your sect whose birth year, month, day and time are suitable to help me do this."

"Yes." Li Pingrun said, "That's true."

"But now you don't even know whether this can achieve the desired effect. This really disappoints me," said Tie Wandao.

"Chief, I will do my best." Li Pingrun said.

"You are not sure about this matter, but you can be sure of another thing, right?" Tie Wandao asked.

"Chief, are you talking about performing a ritual on Yuanshuang's Mingxin Stone?" Li Pingrun asked.

"Of course." Tie Wandao said.

"That can be confirmed." Li Pingrun said.

"So will you perform the ritual on it today or tomorrow?" Tie Wandao asked.

"What's the clan leader's opinion?" Li Pingrun said.

"Of course I think the sooner the better." Tie Wandao said, "But, if we perform a ritual for this matter before that matter is completed, will it interfere with that matter?"

Li Pingrun said: "As long as it is completed before the specified time, there will be no interference."

"Can you guarantee that you can complete it before a certain time?" Tie Wandao asked again.

"This..." Li Pingrun thought. "Don't tell me you're not sure." Tie Wandao said.

"Then let me calculate it first, and then give the patriarch a definite answer, how about that?" Li Pingrun asked.

Tie Wandao said: "Then you should perform a ritual on Yuanshuang Mingxin Stone now."

"Of course you can." Tie Wandao said, "However, how long do you calculate this will take? Is it possible that it could have been completed before the specific time, but your calculation has delayed some time and it cannot be completed?"

Li Pingrun said: "I also..."

Tie Wandao interrupted him, glanced at him, and said, "You're not sure about what you want to say, right?"

"Yes." Li Pingrun said, "I'm really not sure."

"Unsure... Unsure... I can't count how many times you have said I'm not sure today." Tie Wandao said.

"I'm sorry, Chief! I actually hope to give you confirmed news." Li Pingrun said, "But if I lie to make you feel comfortable, I will end up with no way to survive!"

Tie Wandao suddenly remembered Hou Jizhuan who had lied to him out of fear, and immediately said, "Even if you told me 'I'm not sure' and made me feel uncomfortable for a while, you didn't tell me a lie directly. This makes me feel more at ease."

"How dare I lie to the clan leader!" Li Pingrun said, "Besides, the circumstances under which our sect's magic is used are somewhat special. Whether or not the goal can be achieved through the magic often depends on whether the words the alchemist tells the person who asked him to perform the magic before and after the magic are true. If you ask me to perform the magic, and I lie to you, some things I could have done before may not be done. Not only that, I will also have to pay a certain price."

Tie Wandao said, "In fact, I have heard of the situation you are talking about before. I have only heard that whether the magic of a certain sect can achieve the purpose is closely related to whether the alchemist of that sect is honest to the person who asks him to perform the magic. After meeting you, I have a better understanding of this situation."
