Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1984 (One Thousand Nine Hundred and Eighty-Four) Consolidation

Yue Xianhe also told Tie Jinjue that if he wanted a more guaranteed effect, he could continue to consolidate the jade while doing other things, but after an hour, the consolidation time could not exceed half an hour, otherwise the situation would turn unfavorable. During the half hour of consolidation, Tie Jinjue's face would turn red. If he continued to consolidate for more than half an hour, when the situation began to turn unfavorable, Tie Jinjue's face would turn pale.

Tie Jinjue attached great importance to the effect. After an hour, he continued to consolidate, so he kept holding the white jade in his hand. Therefore, when Wu Xunsheng went to Hongfeng Hall for the second time that day and entered that room, he saw Tie Jinjue holding a rectangular white jade in both hands. Since Tie Jinjue had been consolidating for less than half an hour, Wu Xunsheng found that Tie Jinjue's face was a little red when he saw him.

[Chapter 215]

Later, when Tie Jinjue was talking to Tie Hongyan, Tie Hongyan asked him "Is it related to magic?" and he told her truthfully "Yes".

Tie Hongyan asked again: "Has Uncle finished his magic-related work?"

Tie Jinjue hesitated for a moment and said, "I have already done what I needed to do right after I came back."

"Is there anything else that hasn't been done?" Tie Hongyan asked.

Tie Jinjue asked: "Why are you asking this?"

Tie Hongyan said: "I was wondering if my asking Wu Xunsheng to go to Hongfeng Hall to find you just now would affect what you did."

"No." Tie Jinjue shook his head and said, "You are really overthinking it. If you have something to tell me, of course you should send someone to call me earlier, there is no problem with that. Besides, how could it affect me? If Yue Xianhe told me that what I had to do must be done within a certain hour, otherwise it would cause major consequences, after listening to what Wu Xunsheng told me, as long as I was sure that it was not a life-threatening matter, I would finish my business first and then come to you. Take today's situation for example, in fact, I didn't have anything to do immediately, but in order to separate from Wu Xunsheng, I didn't come out to find you until a while after he left. So, it definitely didn't affect me, don't worry."

"Just now, when I asked Uncle if he had finished his magic-related work, he didn't give me a direct 'yes' answer." Tie Hongyan said, "So, is there anything else Uncle needs to do related to magic?" Tie Jinjue said, "As soon as I didn't give you a direct answer, you immediately heard something was wrong, right?"

"Is it true, as I said, that there are still some magic-related things that your uncle needs to do later?" Tie Hongyan asked.

Tie Jinjue lowered his head slightly, frowned lightly, let out a long breath, and looked at Tie Hongyan again.

Tie Hongyan noticed that Tie Jinjue was hesitant to speak, so he asked, "What's the matter?"

"I don't know either." Tie Jinjue said in a low voice.

Tie Hongyan looked into Tie Jinjue's eyes.

Tie Jinjue continued, "Some things haven't happened yet, so I naturally don't know if I need to do anything. In fact... if it could always be like this, with nothing happening and no need to do anything, and everything being fine, then that would naturally be best."

"Did my uncle learn from the Yue Taoist priest that something dangerous would happen in Tiecang Court?" Tie Hongyan asked.
