"Success." Qin Liuxi's eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at the cause and effect thread.
The thread connected to the paper figurine was brightly crimson, while the end tied to the lifeline on Jing Xiaosi's palm was turning gray and black, with little remaining.
Qin Liuxi gestured for Jing Xiaosi to raise his hand. Seeing the lifeline shortening bit by bit, her gaze grew sharp.
"What, what's happening?" Jing Xiaosi asked nervously.
Qin Liuxi created a talisman and, with two fingers shaped like a sword, swept it in front of them.
Jing Xiaosi's eyes stung for a moment. Upon opening them, he saw the cause and effect thread.
"My goodness gracious!" Xiong Er's eyes bulged in disbelief as he looked at the thread, exclaiming, "This, this is..."
