The Feng Shui Treasure Appraiser

344: Chapter 344 is completely different.Han Jingyang carefully took down the four-panel screen by Zou Yigui hanging on the wall.

He laid it flat on the coffee table and examined it closely.

The painting was still the same painting, without any changes.

But he felt something strange about the chrysanthemum corresponding to Zou Rushuang, though he couldn’t quite put his finger on it.

Wait.

It doesn’t matter if I don’t understand.

Zou Shuying and the other two must know.

He turned his head and beckoned, ”Come here.”

The three, including Zou Shuying, shuffled over to Han Jingyang with small steps and timidly called out, ”Master.”

Han Jingyang didn’t bother with pleasantries and asked directly, ”What’s the situation with Rushuang?”

Zou Shuying was stunned for a moment. ”Master means...”

”Has she completely disappeared? Or has she just lost her ability to manifest?”

”No, no, she hasn’t completely disappeared. She just can’t come out for a short while and can only stay motionless in the painting, just like when we first gained sentience,” Zou Rushuang saw Han Jingyang let out a sigh of relief and also quietly sighed in relief, adding an explanation, ”And when we go back into the painting, we can still communicate with her, but it will take a very, very long time for her to appear before Master again.”

Han Jingyang was truly relieved now.

As long as she hadn’t completely disappeared, it was fine.

If she had completely disappeared, even an immortal couldn’t save her. After all, Zou Rushuang herself had no physical body; her human-like form was constructed from Qi. Although it was essentially no different from a living person, her mode of existence was relatively simple. Once she completely disappeared, she would truly be gone forever.

But now, she had only lost a constructed body. Her soul was still there, and she could even communicate with Zou Shuying and her sisters, so it wasn’t a big deal.

Han Jingyang’s serious expression instantly softened. He nodded to Zou Shuying. ”Tell Rushuang that I have a way to restore her to her original form immediately, but there’s a certain risk. Ask her if she’s willing. If she is, I’ll try. If not, she’ll have to wait patiently while I think of another way.”

Zou Shuying nodded and vanished instantly.

Less than half a minute later, she reappeared before Han Jingyang. ”Master, Rushuang is willing to try.”

Han Jingyang didn’t dally. He pulled out the shikigami token, fixed his eyes on Zou Rushuang’s true form, and silently visualized her physical body in his mind, activating the ”Divine Resurrection” skill he had only used once before.

Did Zou Rushuang count as a deity?

Would this skill work on her?

Would it cause some other kind of mutation?

What if it failed...

Watching the red aura emerging from the token, Han Jingyang’s heartbeat gradually quickened. He stared at the chrysanthemum on the scroll without blinking, his breathing unknowingly becoming heavy.

The red Qi aura seeped into the scroll as if it were alive.

The originally ordinary scroll seemed to have a xianxia filter applied to it. The chrysanthemum in the painting gradually changed color under the influence of the red Qi. A faint, mystical light flowed along the lines sketched in ink, like a pulsing bloodline. It went over and over, from the stems, leaves, and flowers of the chrysanthemum to the colophon and signature, without exception.

The light grew thicker, and the Qi became more abundant, almost completely submerging the ink and lines on the scroll.

Han Jingyang and the three Flower Fairies, including Zou Shuying, stared intently at the scroll and the mystical scene unfolding within it.

Han Jingyang was fine, as he had seen this more than once.

But Zou Shuying and the other two women were seeing such a scene for the first time. Moreover, it was closely related to their sister. Not only did they feel incredibly shocked, but they were also extremely nervous. They held each other’s arms, their facial expressions losing control. They had completely lost their previous dignified and ethereal air, looking more like three ordinary women waiting outside an operating room for their sister to finish surgery.

Time passed second by second.

The red Qi in the scroll continued to churn.

Qi of other colors could be vaguely seen circulating regularly within it. Looking closely, one could discern the structure of internal organs and limbs.

Was this reshaping Zou Rushuang’s body?

But would a body created this way really be exactly the same as the original Zou Rushuang?

Why did he feel like there would be unpredictable changes?

He hoped they were good changes.

Han Jingyang prayed silently in his heart, but the target of his prayer wasn’t any god or Buddha, but himself.

He was the master of this painting.

He was also the master of the shikigami token.

Furthermore, he was the organizer of this ceremony. To Zou Rushuang, he was the Lord of the Underworld who governed the Path of Reincarnation, the controller of fate who changed destiny against the heavens. No one’s word carried more weight than his.

Therefore, praying to himself was perfectly reasonable.

Amidst Han Jingyang’s prayers, the red Qi gradually detached from the scroll and floated before him, continuing to churn. However, the humanoid outlines within it became more and more apparent and clear, forming a relatively distinct silhouette in a very short time.

Seeing this, Zou Shuying cried out in surprise and joy, ”It’s Rushuang!”

Zou Handan and Zou Feixiang also excitedly craned their necks, staring intently at the Qi sphere gradually taking shape in mid-air.

Under the gaze of the four, the Qi sphere became more solid, Zou Rushuang’s figure became clearer, and her facial features became more distinct.

Half a minute later, Zou Rushuang landed gracefully on the floor and slowly opened her eyes. Her beautiful eyes darted around, her clear gaze sweeping over her three sisters before finally resting on Han Jingyang’s face. She then walked gracefully to Han Jingyang and curtsied. ”Thank you, Master, for the grace of rebirth.”

Han Jingyang excitedly pulled Zou Rushuang into an embrace and laughed. ”Good, good. It’s good that you’re okay.”

Then, he froze for a moment.

So heavy?

No.

She has weight?

Although the four sisters, including Zou Shuying, previously had physical forms and could act like normal people, they weren’t real humans after all. Their weight was negligible. While they could simulate a certain weight, it required energy consumption.

But at this moment, Zou Rushuang’s weight was no different from that of an ordinary person.

Could it be...

Han Jingyang hurriedly let go of Zou Rushuang and reached out to pinch her flawless cheek.

Zou Rushuang blushed instantly. A rosy hue like the morning glow spread from her neck to her face at a visible speed, like red dye blooming on white Xuan paper.

At this moment, Zou Rushuang was incredibly beautiful, even more so than a fairy from heaven.

Even Han Jingyang was dazed for a moment.

But he soon came back to his senses and pinched Zou Rushuang’s burning earlobe. While marveling at its sensitivity, he moved his hand down to her shoulder, gently patting it. Before she could refuse, his hand slid down to her waist.

So slender.

So smooth.

Even through two or three layers of clothing, he could feel the amazing curves and wonderful touch.

This body was even more perfect than the Stainless Bodies of Shi Xiaoya and Liu Jing. There wasn’t a single flaw anywhere, yet it felt exactly like a real person.

Just as Han Jingyang wanted to feel further down, Zou Rushuang let out a shy moan with a flushed face, ”Master~”

Han Jingyang coughed and let go with a heart full of regret. Meeting the shy gazes of the three sisters, he chuckled. ”Don’t misunderstand. I’m checking Rushuang’s physical condition. She’s completely different from before. You all should come and see too.”

Then he looked at the blushing Zou Rushuang. ”Rushuang, tell us how you feel. Is it different from before?”

Zou Rushuang was stunned for a moment. She looked down, touched herself, then closed her eyes to sense carefully. A moment later, she opened her eyes and nodded excitedly, ”Master, it’s different. Completely different. The current me is completely different from before!”
