Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now!-Chapter 912 - 271: [Execution] (Supplement)_2

The old Taoist suddenly rejoiced, saluted Chen Yan, and then glanced at Shen Shiqi: "Young friend... the old Taoist is leaving!"

Shen Shiqi tugged at the corner of his mouth, nodded to the old Taoist, who then transformed into a light, and with a whoosh, entered Chen Yan’s Li Huo Candle.

After the old Taoist entered the Li Huo Candle, Chen Yan nodded and put away the Li Huo Candle.

"Fellow Daoist, you indeed have hidden good treasures," Shen Shiqi gazed at Chen Yan’s hand, speaking with a complex tone.

Chen Yan did not respond, instead he turned, facing Shen Shiqi’s small face, and sighed: "I originally thought you were repaying Dean Shen’s kindness, but in the end, unexpectedly, you were actually seeking revenge."

"Kindness must be repaid, and revenge must be exacted. In life, if one cannot freely handle kindness and revenge, wouldn’t one be living in vain?" Shen Shiqi’s tone was very calm.

Chen Yan looked at Shen Shiqi, watching as the child’s face grew paler, his small body seemingly unable to stand straight, gradually becoming hunched.

Chen Yan sighed: "The Soul Suppressing Lamp’s Li Fire Qi is insufficient, and all these years, you’ve been using your own blood essence to nourish the Soul Suppressing Lamp to preserve the old Taoist’s soul from dissipating?"

After a pause, Chen Yan solemnly said: "Do you know the price of doing this?"

Shen Shiqi laughed freely: "I know, the price is trading it with my lifespan."

Chen Yan was silent, quietly looking at the child for a while, then asked softly: "Is it worth it?"

"In life, there are some things that must be done—regardless of the cost. Not repaying the nurturing grace of parents, not avenging parents’ deaths with blood, would be a disgrace. Even if it costs my life, it is worth it!"

Chen Yan sighed, contemplating: "Good child, since you have such clarity, I’ll speak to you directly, you..."

"I am about to die!"

Before Chen Yan could finish, Shen Shiqi bluntly spoke out.

Chen Yan raised an eyebrow, Shen Shiqi’s forehead was already dripping with sweat, he forced a smile: "I only have a short time left! Fellow Daoist, you don’t need to tell me, I understand it myself."

"You..." Chen Yan frowned.

Shen Shiqi sighed: "If it was just the blood essence nourishing the Soul Suppressing Lamp, it wouldn’t deplete my lifespan so quickly, but just now... the old Taoist’s last strike consumed a lot of my life."

Chen Yan said in a low voice: "Actually, I could have killed that guy just now myself." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"It’s not the same." Shen Shiqi shook his head: "My parents nurtured me, if revenge is taken through another’s hand, it’s different. Besides..."

He took a deep look at Chen Yan: "I couldn’t foresee the future. When I started using my blood essence to nourish the Soul Suppressing Lamp, I didn’t know that I would meet someone like you in the future.

Using blood essence to nourish the Soul Suppressing Lamp for many years has left me frail and sickly. Even if I don’t die now, I wouldn’t live many years, and the rest of my life would only be bedridden with no good days left to enjoy.

This life, even if kept alive, would only be a burden, dragging down Dean Shen and my sister."

At this point, Shen Shiqi’s smile was peculiar: "Fellow Daoist, you need not feel bad for me. To be blunt, the reason I insisted on using my lifespan to trigger the old Taoist’s final move just now... is because I don’t want to live anymore myself.

Having killed the enemy and avenged my hatred, I have no regrets in this life. Dying like this is the best outcome."

Chen Yan sighed with admiration: "You, such a small person, yet more understanding than I imagined."

"Ha!" Shen Shiqi let out a laugh: "Since I can’t live well, then dying right after satisfying my revenge is also a good result."

As he spoke, his originally pale complexion gradually turned sallow, and a layer of gray defeat enveloped his skin!

Even when speaking, his breathing became gradually fast and heavy.

Shen Shiqi took a deep breath, his tone became solemn: "While there’s still some time, let me give you the promised payment."

He made one last effort to sit straighter: "I will recite the entire God-Hosting Chapter to you. Make sure to remember it! Also, don’t forget your vow, this Chapter leaves my lips and enters your ears, and must not be passed on to others by your hand!"

Then, Shen Shiqi began to recite with his tender voice.

"The god resides in the depths, the depths split into valleys, vines separate, valleys become the divine abode..."

With a child’s tender voice reciting word by word, Chen Yan restrained his mind, listening carefully, and memorized it word by word.

His divine sense was strong, having the ability to remember anything after hearing it just once.

Moments later, Shen Shiqi had finished reciting the entire God-Hosting Chapter.

As his tender voice gradually became hoarse, and his breathing increasingly rapid and difficult, a quick gasp followed the completion of this recitation.

Originally immersed in listening, Chen Yan only felt that this cultivation technique was infinitely mysterious, indeed the supreme method! The more he pondered, the more shocked he became—how could a cultivation technique of this level appear in this world?!

However, with Shen Shiqi’s difficult breathing, Chen Yan snapped back to reality, halting his thoughts, moving to Shen Shiqi’s side, squatting down with a sigh: "I... can’t save your life... Do you have anything you’d like to entrust me with?"

Shen Shiqi raised his head, his face dire, but he forced a smile at Chen Yan: "There are actually two things I’d like to entrust you with, please ask for your help, fellow Daoist."

"Just tell me!" Chen Yan responded seriously.

"The first thing... after I die, please help send my parents’ memorial tablets back, help me, burn some paper in front of my parents’ graves, and tell them that the eldest son of the Shen Family has avenged them. The location of my parents’ graves is at..."
