Chapter 174 Ashina will not die
"Yongzhen, come here too. Wine tastes better when you drink it together."
After taking out the wine, Xia Yu waved to Yongzhen who was standing beside him, but Yongzhen hesitated and was about to refuse, when Ashina Isshin also laughed heartily.
"Hahaha, Yu is right. Wine tastes better when you drink it together. Yongzhen, come and sit over here too."
After hearing what Ashina Isshin said, Yongzhen had no reason to refuse. After responding lightly, he knelt down beside the square table.
As the wine jar was opened, an indescribable fragrance emanated from the wine and instantly filled the entire room.
After smelling this, Ashina Isshin took a deep breath and said in surprise, "What a mellow aroma. What kind of wine is this? I feel a lot more relaxed just by smelling it."
Xia Yu did not answer, but just smiled. This was pure spiritual wine. Although it was only the most common type, it was incomparable to the wine brewed from ordinary grains.
They took out three glasses of wine and filled them with wine. The three of them started drinking without any need for snacks or anything.
"Haha... What a great wine. It makes me feel much better." Ashina Isshin drank the whole glass in one gulp, put it down and exclaimed.
"Indeed, Lord Xia Yu, is this medicinal wine? I feel that all the fatigue in my body has been dispelled." Yong Zhen drank half of it in small sips, a little surprised.
"I just used special spring water." Xia Yu explained casually, then turned to look at Ashina Isshin and asked seriously, "Old man, how is your health now?"
"Don't worry, old man, I'm in good health."
Although Ashina said this, anyone who saw his skinny appearance would understand that this old man was almost out of energy.
I'm afraid this is also the reason why the inner court dared to invade Ashina. Ashina Isshin, who is the pillar of Ashina, is almost in poor health.
"Old man, don't be so stubborn. I've already seen it." Xia Yu sighed lightly. With his spiritual perception, he had already detected the old body of Ashina Isshin.
Although this old body still has great strength, the hidden injuries from his youth have caused him to suffer from a host of illnesses in his old age.
It is incredible that Ashina Isshin can continue to live in this body for another three years.
"But don't worry, I still know a little bit of healing skills!"
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Ashina Isshin was slightly stunned, and then laughed heartily, "Hahaha, my good grandson, it's enough that you have this kind of heart. Everyone will die one day, and I am not a person who is afraid of death."
But Xia Yu seemed not to hear it, but silently stretched out his fingers and drew in the air.
As he outlined, a blue magic spell gradually took shape. Under Ashina Isshin's astonished gaze, the spell suddenly flew into his body.
"What's this?"
Ashina Isshin clenched his palms, and he suddenly felt a constant flow of power rising , a power that even exceeded his peak in his youth.
His originally skinny body gradually became more lively, and it seemed that even the illness that had been tormenting him had disappeared.
"Yongzhen, now take another look at the old man's body."
After engraving the healing spell on Ashina Isshin's body , Xia Yu turned and said to Yongzhen.
Yongzhen, who was suddenly called, came back to her senses from the shock. She first looked at the calm Xia Yu in surprise, then stretched out three fingers and gently placed them on Ashina Isshin's wrist.
But after slightly sensing Ashina Isshin's pulse, Yongzhen's eyes gradually became filled with astonishment, and he raised his head in disbelief.
“Master Yixin’s pulse is very stable, just like a middle-aged man with sufficient qi and blood, but how is this possible!”
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Ashina Isshin suddenly burst out with amazing momentum, like a ferocious beast that chooses its prey. "No wonder my body is suddenly full of strength. I suddenly feel a little itchy."
"Okay, okay, old man, hold back your anger. Yongzhen is still here." Xia Yu suddenly said.
"Haha, I was the one who was anxious."
Ashina Isshin chuckled, and his aura suddenly disappeared, and he once again became the skinny, harmless old man he used to be.
After the aura that was like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood disappeared, Yongzhen finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although she had also learned the soft sword, facing the aura of Ashina Isshin, she was still like a small boat in a rainstorm, which would be overturned if she was not careful.
After she recovered, she looked at Xia Yu curiously. Although Ashina Isshin did not reveal his attitude, it was obvious that he was also curious.
Seeing the two people's curious expressions, Xia Yu crossed his fingers and pressed them against his philtrum, and said in a low voice: "Have you heard of Yin-Yang magic? I have researched Yin-Yang magic."
“…”
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment, but Xia Yu believed that as long as I was not embarrassed, then others would be embarrassed, so he did not say anything.
After a moment, Yongzhen was the first to break the awkwardness. She said, "Onmyoji? Lord Xia Yu, are you talking about Abe Haruaki, the Onmyoji of the Heian period? So the method just now was Onmyoji?"
“That’s right!”
Seeing that someone finally answered the call, Xia Yu immediately broke away from the previous awkward atmosphere and explained.
"It's Yin-Yang magic. I looked up this magical power in the library on the lower floor of the castle tower, and then I tried to study it."
"As expected, with my research, no matter how magical the Yin-Yang technique is, I have finally uncovered its mystery. I have now mastered this magical power."
"Not only have I researched Yin-Yang techniques for healing, I have also developed techniques for increasing strength, defeating enemies, and so on. In short, this is an omnipotent power. Old man, Ashina will not die."
"Really..." Ashina Isshin showed a relieved expression, "Ashina won't die."
In fact, he had always known that Ashina would not be able to hold out for long, because he single-handedly freed Ashina from the inner court.
But the downside of doing this is that as long as he has a problem, Ashina will inevitably decline or even perish.
Now that he had just shown signs of fatigue, the inner court had already attacked him like a hyena. This was both a test of his current condition and a probe into whether there was anyone as strong as him.
The entire foundation of Ashina's existence relies on him. He originally thought that the next person to support Ashina would be his eldest grandson, Ashina Genichirō.
But the situation at this moment told him that the one who could save Ashina was actually his little grandson, Xia Yu, who had little fighting ability.
"The world is so unpredictable." Ashina Isshin sighed first, then laughed.
"Hahaha, you are worthy of being my grandson. Even I didn't expect this."
"Lord Isshin...that's so kind." Yongzhen on the side also smiled sincerely.
"Yongzhen, do you want to learn Yin-Yang magic?" Xia Yu suddenly said, looking at Yongzhen who was smiling gently in front of him.
"This..." Yongzhen seemed to be surprised that Xia Yu would say this, "Can I?"
"What's wrong with that? If you don't understand anything during your studies, feel free to come and find me."
Looking at the intellectual beauty in front of him, Xia Yu laughed and said, if you want to hug her left and right, you have to take it slowly.
