Chapter 5218: 5.0970 Hope
Not even a small theft was allowed to tarnish her reputation. No, absolutely not.
"It seems Miss Xiaoxue looks relieved," Luo He said, smiling maliciously at Mu Xiaoxue.
Mu Xiaoxue's faint smile instantly froze on her face.
Qin Hong then beckoned to her, putting on a benevolent expression. "Miss Xiaoxue, how about we discuss a deal?"
"Wh-what?" Mu Xiaoxue nervously pressed against the Buddha shrine, one hand gripping the small offering table behind her.
On this bleak, rainy night, in a dilapidated temple, she was alone, facing Patriarch Qin and Master Luo, with only their guards standing around them. Mu Xiaoxue was isolated and helpless; even if she wanted to go back for reinforcements now, it was too late. For now, she could only take one step at a time and see what Patriarch Qin would say.
Mu Xiaoxue offered a stiff smile to Qin Hong. "Pa-Patriarch, if there's, if there's anything, you can, you can just give the order. I, I am a member of Heavenly Fate, and I will, I will go through fire and water for the organization, without hesitation."
"Hahahaha," Qin Hong laughed heartily, clapping his hands. "Xiaoxue is indeed a good child. Hall Master Mu is a core high-level member of our organization and has contributed greatly to us over the years."
"Xiaoxue, you really want this Qiankun Dou Zhuan Talisman, don't you?" As he spoke, Qin Hong slightly flipped his palm, revealing a jade talisman shimmering with a faint purple light.
Mu Xiaoxue's heart instantly leaped. Her eyes brightened as she stared at the jade talisman in Qin Hong's hand, her voice trembling as she asked, "Patriarch Qin, tr-truly? Is it?"
"Of course, you can come and touch it."
As if possessed, Mu Xiaoxue felt pulled by an invisible string, trembling as she walked towards Qin Hong. She touched it, she really touched it! That jade talisman that could change one's luck was now in her hand. If she were to immediately activate and use it...
Still, in front of Master Luo and Patriarch Qin, Mu Xiaoxue didn't dare to act rashly at all. Changing her luck was certainly important, but the前提 was to be alive. If she weren't alive, what good would changing her luck do?
"How is it?" Qin Hong whispered to her, his voice seductive. "Don't you feel that this small talisman is like holding your own destiny?"
"Indeed. Just as the legends say, as long as you activate this Qiankun Dou Zhuan Talisman towards that person, then soon, all of the good fortune of the person whose luck you wish to strip will transfer to you."
"You're no longer a useless person," Patriarch Qin said with a smile, his voice low and filled with an indescribable allure. "You will become the most brilliant star in this world."
"You will gain indescribable opportunities and fortune."
"Your life will immediately be painted with vibrant colors."
"Your great name, Mu Xiaoxue, will surely be passed down for eternity, praised by all!"
Mu Xiaoxue's excitement grew. Yes, yes, just as Patriarch Qin said. She, Mu Xiaoxue, as long as she possessed this Qiankun Dou Zhuan Talisman, could completely change her fate and completely alter her future. With this talisman, everything would no longer be an illusory dream.
Mu Xiaoxue took a deep breath, her entire being uncontrollably excited. Holding the talisman in her hand, she felt as if she owned the whole world.
