“Wan’er is half spirit and half human. Her mother has noble blood from the Water Clan, and her father’s blood is unique, being extremely pure blood that is rare among humans, occurring only once every ten thousand years. Naturally, he is not an ordinary person. Sometimes, whether human or spirit, there is a demon residing in one’s heart. Now that her soul is adrift, it is very possible that the demon in her heart has been drawn out and released by some evil thing.” Looking ahead, Mercury’s words seemed to have been carefully considered.
"Slap!" Uncle raised his hand and slapped Mercury across the face, startling Mercury. Mercury turned to look at Uncle beside him, "Why, why did you hit me?"
"That's exactly what I'm going to do! Talking nonsense, how could you think so badly of Wan'er?" Uncle was so angry that he puffed out his beard and glared at her, raising his pipe. "Don't you understand that a person's essence is basically unchangeable? Besides, I clearly sensed a demonic aura about that woman. How could you really link her to Wan'er?"
“Yes, that makes sense.” Mercury lowered her head to the side, not daring to look her uncle in the eye, and slowly released her hand from her face.
“This is indeed strange.” Biyu nodded, seemingly lost in thought.
“What you’re saying, Uncle, does seem suspicious,” Mercury said after a short while, unable to contain himself any longer. “If this woman is a demon, why is she imitating Wan’er and clinging to Liu Chang’an? Is there some other ulterior motive?”
"This time, at least he said something sensible." The uncle nodded, took a puff of his pipe, and exhaled smoke. "That's what I was worried about."
My uncle's pipe was quite peculiar; it seemed to produce smoke anytime, anywhere.
"Sigh, this is such a difficult question." Mercury shook her head, stood up, and glanced at Wan'er's bedroom, the door tightly closed, lost in thought for a moment.
Could he have figured something out? We absolutely mustn't disturb them now; one wrong move and they might go berserk. Biyu gasped, quickly getting up and heading towards the kitchen, saying as she went, "I feel hungry. I'll go see if the food's ready. Why don't we eat something first..."
While people were eating in the restaurant, Wan'er's bedroom presented a completely different scene...
Mo Tian stood at the foot of the bed, raised his hands, palms facing the bed, and two beams of blue light enveloped Wan'er at the head of the bed.
Wan'er's deathly pale face quickly regained its color, and her expression gradually calmed down...
The gradually thinning soul became a shadow, floating uncertainly above the body. The blue light approached the shadow, the distance between them being ten centimeters, five centimeters...
Everything is ready except for the final push. We are getting closer and closer to achieving our goal. Once our bodies and souls are completely united, everything will fall into place naturally.
At this moment, Mo Tian dared not be distracted. He held his breath and concentrated, the veins on his arms bulging, trying to force the blue light with ninety percent of his spiritual power. However, just as the spirit and the person were about to merge, a faint white light suddenly emanated from the direction of Wan'er's navel, repelling her soul with a "bang!" and bringing the distance back to the previous centimeters.
A chill pierced his soul and then shot towards Mo Tian. Mo Tian trembled, his feet momentarily lost their footing, and he involuntarily took two steps back. He quickly gathered his strength to steady himself and regain his footing.
However, the spiritual energy that had been gathered in his palm, like twinkling starlight, began to sizzle and disperse in the surrounding area...
This situation was completely unexpected. Mo Tian's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself, "This is bad!"
