Chapter 608: Reviving the Dead! Arts That Defy Heaven! A Bizarre Death! The Fox Immortal’s Deception! Don’t Look at Me Like That!
In a rundown alley of Gaoling County...
This was the county’s slum; conditions were terrible, with pungent, mixed stench everywhere.
The little girl was named Tian Xiaoling. She depended on her mother, Madam Liu, for survival, living in a ramshackle shack deep within the alley.
Her mother had been ill for a long time.
When Tian Xiaoling ran back home, she discovered that her mother was sitting upright on a stool, perfectly fine.
“Mother! You’re better now!” Tian Xiaoling cried out in delight as she rushed forward and hugged Madam Liu.
Tian Xiaoling’s mother was a woman with a sorrow-worn face. The skin on her hands was extremely rough, with dirt caked beneath her fingernails. Living in such shanty housing meant doing countless dirty and exhausting jobs. Even so, it was only just enough to scrape by.
However, Madam Liu had always done her utmost to sustain the two of them, never once voicing a complaint. She had also consistently taught Tian Xiaoling not to steal or rob, and to live cleanly and uprightly as a person.
“Where did you run off to?” Madam Liu asked gently.
“I went to the Fox Immortal Lady’s temple. I wanted to ask Lady Hu to cure Mother’s illness. I really saw the Fox Immortal Lady! She told me to go home, and that Mother’s illness had already been cured!” Tian Xiaoling spoke excitedly, her words tumbling over one another.
She herself had never imagined that the kind, compassionate woman was truly the Fox Immortal Lady, and that she truly possessed such great power to save the dying and heal the wounded!
Hearing this, Madam Liu was also moved. “I feel like all my illness is completely gone, as if nothing was ever wrong. I never thought it would be the Fox Immortal Lady manifesting her power!”
