Why are the Talismans I Drawn Banned Again?!

The Substitute Messenger Talisman wasn’t too difficult.

Although a first-tier talisman’s ability to “summon the gods” was very limited, it was fortunate that Liu Qing was strong enough and close enough to Jiang Cheng, so the eventual effect should still be considerable.

The biggest problem with the Substitute Messenger Talisman was how to get Liu Qing’s consent to allow Jiang Cheng to use a portion of her strength.

Most importantly, the reason for Jiang Cheng’s summoning must not reveal Liu Qing’s identity as a powerful demon of the Demon Race.

After all, Liu Qing was an enchantress and would likely not be fooled by any trivial deception, given her strength.

Jiang Cheng, having thought through his wording in advance, said, “Liu Qing, come here.”

A certain snake reluctantly left her chaise longue, walked inside, and sat down next to Jiang Cheng.

“Take a look at this.” Jiang Cheng passed the Substitute Messenger Talisman to Liu Qing.

Liu Qing glanced at it, considered it seen, then looked at Jiang Cheng with confusion.

Jiang Cheng then explained, “I’d like you to help me with a summoning talisman experiment, which might use part of your cultivation. Would that be okay?”

Liu Qing thought for a moment and nodded her head.

Jiang Cheng hadn’t expected Liu Qing to agree so easily—was this the confidence of a cultivator in the Mahayana Realm?

“Good, but there’s no rush because I don’t yet know how to draw summoning talismans.”

Liu Qing: ?

One day later, Jiang Cheng had figured out how to draw the Summoning Talisman, and he said to Liu Qing, “Would a one-centimeter-long strand of your hair be all right?”

Generally speaking, cultivators do not give away parts of their body lightly.

Because you never know what the other person might do with it.

If it ended up in the hands of an enemy used for cursing, it could cause a great deal of trouble for the individual.

However, due to her trust in Jiang Cheng, Liu Qing agreed to let him take a small section of her hair.

Jiang Cheng took out scissors and then… he realized that Qi-cultivating cultivators with ordinary scissors simply could not breach the defenses of a monster in the Mahayana Realm. He couldn’t even cut off her hair.

He had no choice but to let Liu Qing do it herself, taking a small section of her hair.

With Liu Qing’s help, Jiang Cheng successfully obtained a section of her hair, then promptly fixed that section onto the “Summoning Talisman” he had already drawn.

After the Substitute Messenger Talisman (Liu Qing Exclusive Special Unique Edition) was completed, Jiang Cheng couldn’t wait to activate it.

He wanted to see how much of Liu Qing’s own strength this first-tier talisman could exert.

Talisman paper was infused with spiritual power by Jiang Cheng and then began to burn, but Liu Qing’s strand of hair seemed indestructible, completely unaffected by the flames.

As the talisman fully activated, the hair started to burst forth with spiritual power, spreading from a point to a surface, forming a blurry, translucent female figure.

Possibly restricted by Jiang Cheng’s talisman-drawing skills, this figure did not resemble Liu Qing; one could only vaguely see it was a female cultivator.

“Liu Qing?” Jiang Cheng tentatively called out.

The real Liu Qing beside him was about to respond, but she saw that the figure turned its head to Jiang Cheng faster than her and nodded, acknowledging him.

Jiang Cheng clapped his hands happily, “Not bad, it’s quite smart.”

The real Liu Qing frowned in bewilderment.

Jiang Cheng was fully focused on the “Substitute Liu Qing” because they were in a critical phase of testing, and he couldn’t overlook any potential issues with the “Liu Talisman.”

“Can you walk a few steps?” Jiang Cheng asked.

“Liu Qing” then obeyed Jiang Cheng’s command and began to walk.

“How about marching? Can you do that?”

“Liu Qing” then began to march.

Jiang Cheng took out the talisman he had prepared to test the strength of cultivation and tossed it to Liu Qing.

“Channel your full spiritual power into the talisman.”

“Liu Qing” did as instructed.

Driven by “Liu Qing,” the testing talisman quickly started glowing brightly.

Jiang Cheng praised cheerfully, “Not bad, it actually has the strength of a peak ninth-level Qi cultivator. Next, let’s test the strength of your body. Go to the kitchen, take the kitchen knife, and try chopping yourself with force?”

“Liu Qing” carried out Jiang Cheng’s orders precisely, a bit clumsily, but she seemed to understand the task at hand.

Even when “Liu Qing” chopped herself with the strength of a ninth-level Qi cultivator, there was not even the slightest wound.

This meant that the strength of Liu Qing’s shadowy figure far exceeded the ninth level of qi training she demonstrated.

From the current performance of the “Liu Tailisman,” it was a first-order talisman whose actual effect was severely beyond standard.

Jiang Cheng dared to say that ordinary second-order talismans were no match for the “Liu Tailisman”!

As long as an effect similar to a Memory Sphere’s recording capability were added to the “Liu Tailisman,” then this talisman would perfectly solve all potential problems faced in intelligence-class assessments!

Whether it was collecting evidence, intercepting carriages, or chopping trees to build bridges, it would all be a piece of cake!

Jiang Cheng couldn’t help but reveal a satisfied and approving smile.

He intended to share the results with the person involved, but when he turned his head, he saw Liu Qing’s pretty face, which wasn’t looking too happy.

Based on Jiang Cheng’s understanding of Liu Qing, Snake rarely showed her emotions.

Especially happiness and joy, he had almost never seen her with such expressions.

There was one instance of displeasure, which was a few days ago during the villa purchase; the second time was now.

“Liu Qing, are you unhappy?” Jiang Cheng tentatively asked.

But Liu Qing did not speak, nor did she look at him, just staring unwaveringly at the cloudless, clear sky outside the window.

Why was Snake suddenly ignoring people?

Jiang Cheng had never encountered this situation before.

In his understanding, Liu Qing was not like Lin Yao, a high-maintenance enchantress from the Demonic Tao, right?

After thinking it over, Jiang Cheng had no choice but to adopt the right attitude and sincerely said, “Liu Qing, you are my employee, but we are also friends. If there’s anything upsetting you, you can tell me. As long as I can help, I’ll do my utmost.”

Hearing Jiang Cheng’s stance, Liu Qing, who had been viewing the scenery, finally showed a reaction.

First, she lowered her head to look at the sunlit, bright floors of the apartment, and then slowly raised her head to look at Jiang Cheng.

“Who?”

“What?”

“Liu Qing, who?”

Jiang Cheng frowned and almost without thinking said, “Of course, it’s you. Who else could it be?”

Liu Qing shifted her gaze, staring at the shadowy figure Jiang Cheng had conjured up.

The implication was clear.

Having hinted to this extent, Jiang Cheng finally remembered that he had, from the beginning, casually called this entity “Liu Qing.”

Was it that she was unhappy with the name he had picked at random?

“Then I’ll give it a new name. How about calling it Qing?” Jiang Cheng asked tentatively.

“I don’t like her,” Liu Qing told Jiang Cheng straightforwardly.

She didn’t like this shadow, even though it was a small part of her cultivation manifested.

Since Liu Qing said so, Jiang Cheng didn’t think too much about it; he simply waved his hand and ended the summoning early, making the shadow disappear completely.

As for the lock of hair left behind by the shadow’s disappearance, Jiang Cheng found it and handed it back to Liu Qing in person.

Liu Qing sat on the couch, holding her hair and looking at Jiang Cheng.

“What is it?” Jiang Cheng asked her.

“Trouble?”

“A little, I might need to rethink the design of a talisman,” Jiang Cheng answered truthfully.

Liu Qing pinched the hair, thought for a moment, then handed it back to Jiang Cheng.

“For you. It’s okay,” she said.

Jiang Cheng looked into Liu Qing’s clear eyes and knew that she was making a compromise for his sake.

Jiang Cheng was not one to hesitate; after a brief moment of thought, he chose to accept Liu Qing’s forbearance.

“This talisman, I will only draw it one last time,” Jiang Cheng promised personally.

“Mmm.”

Liu Qing nodded, and they reached their first agreement on the prohibition of a talisman.
