Chapter 206 Men's Tears, Women's Aphrodisiac
"Is this alright? I didn't mention your address, so I didn't expose you." After sending the message, Huali put away the communication stone.
The first step, the fish generator, is complete.
Time is tight and the task is heavy; if you want to make money, you can't be afraid of hard work.
AAA Pearl Seafood Wholesale cleared his throat and gave Yan Xi a reserved smile, "I'm ready, let your performance begin."
Yan Xi: "?"
Huali glared at him and said, "You don't think I can start working without paying a deposit, do you?"
"Or do you need some external help? But you didn't cry when I told you the story of the Little Mermaid before."
Realizing what she was doing, Yan Xi took a deep breath. If he stayed even a second longer, he was afraid he would die of anger on the spot.
When Mingming brought the person back, he had already taken all necessary precautions.
Why did things turn out this way?
Quiet! He just wants some peace and quiet!!
However, the seafood wholesalers had no intention of letting him go.
Seeing Yan Xi turn around, Hua Li quickly followed, "Actually, you can use the scenario analogy. Imagine you are the Little Mermaid, seeing the princess marrying someone else..."
“Then I will kill her with my own hands.” Yan Xi could no longer bear it. “Love is the most useless thing in the world. It brings nothing but weakness and destruction.”
“I advise you to read less of these mindless novels,” he said, conjuring up an ancient book the size of a brick and tossing it to Huali. “Read the first hundred pages today and learn how to channel spiritual energy into your meridians.”
Huali subconsciously flipped it open.
Immediately, a desolate and vast sense of the Dao, as if it were the very beginning of the universe, rushed towards me.
"Hualin!"
Ao Bai, recognizing its value, exclaimed, "The Mysterious Heaven Qi-Guiding Technique? A celestial classic. Little bird is quite generous."
Before Huali could even speak, Yanxi's lips curled into a nearly malicious, playful smile.
"This is what was written by the person who failed to transcend the tribulation behind the barrier and was sealed inside. Do you dare to use it?"
“Of course,” Karin replied without hesitation.
Yan Xi's pupils contracted almost imperceptibly.
Chief Steward Ao, who had been observing from the sidelines, was already very familiar with the scene before him. He caught the subtle pause in Yan Xi's eyes almost instantly, and it was definitely not mockery or disgust.
The cat, who saw through everything, transformed into a bird and had a series of internal monologues:
—Tsk, this woman is quite unique, unlike those mediocre people who avoid failure like the plague.
Steward Ao looked at Huali with encouraging eyes: "Go! Use the same eloquence you used on the first four to take them down!"
Huali nodded and spoke the truth, "So what if you fail? You still need me to help you enter the Abyss, so it'll definitely be fine."
Yan Xi: "......"
Regardless of Yan Xi's feelings, Hua Li was still somewhat unsatisfied.
You should know that she was someone who watched fantasy dramas as a child, used knitting needles as jade hairpins, ran around the room draped in bed sheets, and even pretended to make hand gestures and chant spells in the air.
Now that she can suddenly use her spiritual power, how could she not be excited?
The bird may be unethical, but people can be wicked with peace of mind.
Instantly understanding the girl's vivid expression, Yan Xi closed his eyes, unable to bear it any longer.
There's a type of person who, even when you're furious, will think you're casting a spell.
The feeling of being treated like a fool left Yan Xi with a lump in his throat.
He deliberately lowered his voice, making it sound even more chilling, "Remember, don't even think about running away. Ancient demonic beasts are sealed everywhere in the Abyss, right above your head."
"An ancient demonic dragon is locked up there."
Huali, who was immersed in joy, paused, "A demonic dragon?"
Having successfully captured Huali's subtle reaction, Yanxi finally had an outlet for his pent-up anger.
He continued to create a terrifying atmosphere with a heavy-handed tone: "It is thousands of feet long, and its scales are as black as the eternal night. Any living being that gets close to it will be corroded by invisible blood worms and will never have peace."
A lightbulb went off in Karin's head, "Huh?"
Yan Xi stared intently at her expression, waiting for her face to turn deathly pale and her voice to tremble, and for the damned composure in her eyes to be torn apart by fear.
However......
Far from showing the slightest fear, Huali's clear almond-shaped eyes instead gleamed with an eerie light. "A demonic dragon? Is it the demonic dragon I was thinking of?"
"There is only one demonic dragon in the world, what do you think?"
Huali's mind raced.
Lian Zhuo's blood curse has always been a problem. After their encounter in Tianlan City, she privately asked him about the reason. Lian Zhuo said that he was accidentally contaminated with the blood curse while sealing the demonic dragon.
She wanted to ask more, but Lian Zhuo was afraid of putting her in danger and refused to say more.
Although the blood curse could be controlled, it was still a hidden danger, and she had long wanted to help Lian Zhuo solve this problem.
Considering the message Luo Chuan had sent her before, that the sealing of the demonic dragon in the Abyss was the work of the Buddhist sect, and adding Xiao Niao's words, Hua Li could basically confirm that this was the one.
"Is the Demonic Dragon Blood Gu that powerful? Do you know how to remove it if you get infected?"
Yan Xi saw the worry in the girl's eyes and suddenly realized something, "Zhan Li has been afflicted by the Blood Gu?"
Huali: "...Oh right, since we're friends, I'll ask him for him."
"Just wait to die. The Blood Gu will continuously amplify the dark side of people's hearts. The longer it is suppressed, the more violent the rebound will be. There is no solution."
Karin: "...Alright then."
Yan Xi looked at her suspiciously.
Sure enough, the girl shrugged again. "My enthusiasm for learning is closely related to my mood. I can't bear to read a single word when I think about my friend dying. I'll just break the chains and wait another hundred years." She grinned to comfort her, "Don't worry, I can live now."
Yan Xi: "Do you really think I can't do anything with you...?"
Karin: "Yes."
Yan Xi: "..."
Yan Xi: "...the dragon pearl."
"There is a drop of primordial blood inside the Flood Dragon Pearl that can cure the Blood Gu." However, if the poisoning has been prolonged, even if one obtains the Flood Dragon Pearl, one will still suffer a backlash.
To completely eradicate it, one must satisfy the desires in their heart in order to achieve liberation.
Unfortunately, she will never have the chance to leave the Abyss.
*
Within the Boundary Abyss, there is no distinction between day and night.
Having made up her mind to challenge the demonic dragon, Huali's top priority now is to learn how to control spiritual power.
Huali imitated Tang Wanwan's usual manner, sitting cross-legged on the cushion.
Across from her, Ao Bai dutifully used his tail to turn the pages of her book.
Huali took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled.
First, carefully calm your mind, then try to transform your thoughts into invisible threads that travel through your body.
At first, the silk threads were as ethereal as smoke, but then they became clearer and more cohesive.
Following the specific route described in the book, Huali carefully led them out, heading towards the so-called "three inches below the navel" (a point on the body's surface).
It'll be soon...it'll be soon!
Just as they were about to reach the finish line, "poof—" the aura dissipated for the sixteenth time.
Karin crawled, wriggled, rolled, twisted, and growled in a sinister, dark way!
"Heavens above, earth below, please save the children!!"
Ao Bai sighed, "Why don't we just forget about it and go to sleep at midnight?"
"Why go to bed early when you're alive? You'll have plenty of time to sleep when you're dead!"
Undeterred, Huali continued to sit cross-legged, drawing energy into her body, repeating the previous steps to gather spiritual power into the vortex of her dantian—
A barely perceptible sense of stagnation suddenly became stuck in the threads of precisely manipulated intention.
The fleeting feeling was so fast that there wasn't even time to discern it.
"Buzz!"
Like dominoes, the glimmer of light on the entire page of the book was quickly stretched into countless rapidly spinning ribbons.
Without any warning, Huali's consciousness was instantly like ice thrown into strong liquor, hissing and being swept away by the sudden "drunkenness".
Without saying a word, she got up and rushed outside!
"Hey, hey, hey? Host, where are you going?"
Ao Bai watched as the person who had been perfectly fine just moments before suddenly followed him as if he had been drinking fake alcohol.
As soon as she took a step, Huali, whose footing was unsteady, tripped over her right foot with her left and lost her balance.
Just as she was about to fall to the ground in a disheveled state—
A figure, like moonlight piercing the deep sea, materialized without warning in front of her as she fell, moving faster than the eye could perceive.
Yan Xi reached out and took Hua Li, sensing the chaotic spiritual energy coursing through her body. "You..."
She had barely uttered a single word when Huali had already run headfirst into his arms.
His burning head pressed heavily against Yan Xi's cool neck, and one hand almost instinctively caressed and then suddenly grabbed the cold, sensitive scales behind Yan Xi's ear.
"My...head...is so hot..." Karin felt like she was on fire, almost like when she shrunk, maybe even more intensely. "Little bird...you're so cool..."
The moment Reverse Scale was grasped by scalding fingers, an indescribable, tingling, and numbing sensation rushed to the top of her head!
Yan Xi did not mean to, but the touch from his most vulnerable spot caused the warm water-based spiritual energy in his body to surge out uncontrollably like boiling water.
"Tick-tock—"
The glistening tears, carrying a faint glimmer of light, dripped uncontrollably down her chin.
Yan Xi stood frozen in place, her body stiff, holding her breath, with only her chest rising and falling.
But the girl in his arms was startled by the cold little pearl and looked up as if in a dream.
Upon noticing the reddened corners of Yan Xi's eyes, he suddenly chuckled, his tone carrying a strange excitement, "A man's tears...hehe...a stimulant..."
