Chapter 83 is an Yin-Yang technique he has never seen before.
Mei Liangyu was too proud to admit it, so he told Yu Sui that there was only one thing, when in fact his five elements were completely out of balance. When he closed his eyes to rest, he unconsciously frowned.
He had been fighting and clearing the field almost non-stop for the past few days, frequently using different Heavenly Secrets Techniques. On the day he was trapped in the shallows by the Five Profound Poisons, he actually had a chance to rest. But when he went to the Dragon Fish Formation at night and broke through the formation to leave, he used the Heavenly Secrets Techniques of the Ghost Daoist School.
Things you force always come at a price.
Mei Liangyu's use of the Nine Schools of Ghostly Daoist techniques consumes more energy and carries a heavier burden than other schools' Heavenly Secrets techniques.
Once one over-consumes their own power, causing an imbalance of the five elements within the light core, it can easily lead to a reversal of the five elements.
Fortunately, he also knew some of the nine unorthodox medical techniques, and with a bit of effort, he could slowly regulate his breathing and guide his energy.
After feeling better, Mei Liangyu took a short nap.
Yu Sui glanced at her senior brother for a while, surveying him with her eyes before looking away. After confirming that her senior brother wouldn't notice, she took out the Listening Wind Ruler and sent a message to Zhong Lique.
Zhong Lique was still awake late at night, waiting for news from Yu Sui in the house. She had only received a brief response from Yu Sui yesterday and did not know what had happened, so she was worried.
At this moment, seeing the Listening Wind Ruler light up, Zhongli Que's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly clicked to check.
"This month I'm participating in the academy's trials in a rather special secret realm called the Dragon Slayer Cave."
After patiently explaining to Zhongli Que what the Dragon Slaying Cave was, Yu Sui added, "The Dragon Slaying Cave has a rule that the Wind Listening Ruler cannot be used, and there are quite a few people around, so I haven't had a chance to tell you about it until now."
"Don't worry, I listened to you and didn't go into any caves after falling into the armored formation, so I wasn't subjected to the death by a thousand cuts."
"Thanks to you, I was able to avoid it."
"When I come back, I will definitely bring you many interesting things that only Taiyi has."
Zhong Lique's heart finally settled down, and she quickly tapped the crossword puzzle: "Are you really not hurt anywhere?"
Yu Sui replied: "I did suffer some superficial injuries during the trial, but I was really not subjected to slow slicing, really not."
"I was so scared! I haven't slept for two days straight. When you didn't reply to me, I was about to run away from home and head straight for Taiyi!" Zhongli Que said with tears in her eyes.
Yu Sui quietly watched the messages Zhong Lique kept sending, her slender fingers tapping on the crossword puzzle as she replied to each one.
She wouldn't tell Zhongli Que about the strange fire.
Zhong Lique was the last psychological defense line that Yu Sui set up for himself.
She has nothing in this world.
Parents, who should have been the closest to me, turned out to be my greatest enemies.
It could even escalate into a life-or-death struggle.
Emotionally, Yu Sui has no attachment to or concern for this world.
Even if she feels it's unnecessary to destroy the daily lives and lives of a large number of innocent people, when her anger reaches its peak, she will think, "What does it matter to me what other people's lives are?"
If the world were to end, it wouldn't just be good people who die, but also countless bad people, those who are lurking and will cause disasters in the future, or those who have already brought misfortune to others.
It has nothing to do with me.
Everyone, just die.
At the age of thirteen, Yu Sui used the strange fire to kill someone for the first time. When she realized that the strange fire would bewitch her, she told herself that she had to protect Zhong Li Que.
Yu Sui found herself someone in this world whom she needed to protect.
Even when her consciousness was bewitched by the strange fire, she could not forget that there was still Zhongli Que.
Yu Sui told herself that she must remember that it was "I" who protected Zhong Li Que, not Zhong Li Que who protected "me".
The reason she resisted the allure of the strange fire was that Yu Sui did not want to die, but simply not wanting to die was not enough for her.
Yu Sui needs to place some genuine emotions in this world in order to firmly control the destructive desire hidden deep in her heart.
"Was this also a case of being passively pre-occupied?" Yu Sui asked.
Zhong Lique replied, "Yes! I was painting to calm my mind, but I got a little tired and took a nap. However, I had a bad dream and woke up in fright, so I immediately sent you a message."
"Luckily I made it in time. If I hadn't, I would never have forgiven myself."
Seeing that she had spoken too harshly, Yu Sui comforted her for a while.
Zhongli Que lay down on the bed, looking sullen, and said, "Taiyi is really too far away."
She thought to herself, "I wish I could go to Taiyi too."
But then he thought about the situation in the capital. If even he went to Taiyi, it would be too dangerous for his mother to be alone in the capital.
"Did your second brother tell you about the Divine Mechanism Technique?" Yu Sui asked.
Zhong Lique asked curiously, "What is that?"
Yu Sui explained to her, "I asked Senior Sister Su before, and there is a kind of divine divination technique that leans towards the Fangji family's predictive divination. It also matches your situation. It is the fifth-ranked divine divination technique, called 'Zhu Xin'."
"It can also predict clear future images and sounds without using the five elements."
Zhong Lique exclaimed in surprise, "Ranked fifth? That's amazing!"
Yu Sui echoed her reply, "Yes, it's a very powerful and highly ranked Divine Mechanism Technique!"
The two of them couldn't help but smile as they looked at Chuanwen.
Joking aside, Yu Sui still reminded Zhong Lique that it wasn't 100% certain that it was Shenji Zhuxin, but that they had a clear direction to probe, and she would continue to inquire about relevant information.
Yu Sui asked Zhongli Que, "Is the Great General coming back?"
"I heard it will be more than a month before we can return," Zhong Lique said. "Some of the rebels have not yet been eliminated, so it will take some more time."
“The capital is not paying attention to the war recently. My father and Prince Nangong are in charge there, so there will be no accidents. However, the investigation into the poison is still ongoing,” Zhong Lique said. “The Orchid Poison has invaded the capital, and His Majesty is furious. He is angry every day. After investigating for many days, there is still no news. The Crown Prince and several ministers are scolded by His Majesty every day.”
Yu Sui lightly touched the Listening Wind Ruler with her fingertips, and could feel the cool touch of the ruler's surface.
There is no news.
Then let's spread rumors to them.
Before directing the orchid poison at Chu Jin, we must first sever all ties with the Zhongli family.
Yu Sui asked, "How is your cousin?"
Zhong Lique replied, "It's not good. After Sister Axu was frightened at the last banquet, she cried and made a fuss every day, wanting to find Chu Jin. My third uncle also found out about this. He warned my second uncle that during this critical period, we must not let more people know about my cousin's affairs, especially people outside the clan. Therefore, Chu Jin is not allowed to come to the mansion again."
"My third uncle also found her a new physician."
When the incident occurred, Zhongli should have sought out a trusted physician or sorcerer.
Chu Jin first cultivated a good relationship with Madam Sun, Zhong Li Que's mother, and left a deep impression on her. So when the incident happened, she naturally received Madam Sun's recommendation.
Zhong Lique said with distress, "Chu Jin doesn't seem to have any ill intentions towards my family at all. My mother pities her a lot, thinking that she is an orphan with no parents and has lived a hard life since childhood. She also took care of her for a period of time, so she loves her very much. If I say to my mother that she has bad intentions, it will only make my mother angry."
“Listen to your third uncle, let him handle it, and you won’t anger Madam.” Yu Sui replied, “I heard from Elder Yan that Chu Jin’s strength should be at the ninth or tenth realm. The difference between these realms is significant. She also knows the medical eye technique, which makes it easy for her to bewitch those with ordinary skills.”
Chu Jin was cunning and scheming, and with the help of a physician's pupil technique, Madam Sun genuinely loved and cared for her.
Yu Sui said, "If you absolutely have to see her, it's best to bring your second brother along."
Su Feng is Nangong Ming's son.
With him around, Chu Jin would have some reservations.
While Yu Sui and Zhong Lique were chatting, the rain outside gradually subsided, turning from a downpour into a drizzle.
The once clear sound of rain faded away, but Zhou Tianhuo still clung to the stone wall, burning and dispelling the darkness, casting a few shadows on Mei Liangyu.
Yu Sui deliberately moved the position of the Zhou Tian Fire so that it could not shine on his senior brother, thus shrouding Mei Liangyu in shadow, so that the firelight would not be too dazzling and would affect his rest.
Many fragments of memories flashed through Mei Liangyu's dream.
Gu Gan's Divine Mechanism Heavenly Official technique loosened the power sealing his memories, as if a corner of a tightly sealed box had broken, allowing a ray of light to shine through. Countless specks of light flickered in the shimmering light, representing his memories before the age of fourteen.
The sound of the red paper windmill spinning rapidly lingered intermittently in Mei Liangyu's ears.
He saw that as he approached the magnificent mansion, the low bamboo fences blocking the flowerbeds along the mountain path were filled with paper windmills of different colors. The windmills spun faster and slower as the morning and night winds alternated, allowing them to sense where the wind was coming from and what news it brought.
After nightfall, from the mountainside in Zhonghua Prefecture, one can see fireworks lit up the city below.
The flashing memories came too quickly, and Mei Liangyu tried very hard to remember them.
The besieging army, the dark figures confronting each other on the rain-soaked streets, the violent eruption of the five elements destroying the buildings on both sides of the street, causing high-rise buildings to collapse, blood to splatter everywhere, and fire to spread.
The mansion is bathed in pale golden sunlight, with blooming trees and clear pond water, where yin and yang fish swim slowly.
The scenes in my memory were sometimes peaceful and serene, and sometimes dangerous and bloody.
On a night when the streets were being washed by torrential rain, countless dark figures flashed by, and he saw many kinds of low-level magic erupting between heaven and earth.
Taoist Five Thunder Gods.
The constellation array of the Yin-Yang School.
The divination array of a divination master.
Legalist adjudication techniques.
The swordsmanship of military strategists.
The Gu poison techniques of farmers.
The words and phrases of famous calligraphers.
He saw countless dark figures rushing towards him from all directions, and the Heavenly Secret Technique, carrying killing intent, brought him different kinds of pressure, bending the back of the thirteen-year-old boy so that he knelt on the ground.
The woman in purple rode the wind and stopped in front of him, blocking all the celestial techniques.
When she raised her hand, every raindrop in the world stopped. The shadows tried to retreat, but were injured by the exploding raindrops. Centered on the woman in purple, black and white flames swept across the entire city, like two enormous yin-yang fish, causing the earth to shake and devouring everyone's five elements.
It was a Yin-Yang technique he had never seen before.
Deep within Mei Liangyu's heart, the Five Elements Light Core, radiating a soft white light, trembled. The Five Elements Qi overflowed, transforming into white threads that enveloped its outer shell. As the power of the surging internal force flowed, countless cracks appeared on the shell, causing it to shatter, and golden light burst forth.
The Tenth Realm, the Divine Soul Light Core.
Power surged through every part of Mei Liangyu's body, struggling to unleash its power, to destroy more, to crush everything, and to awaken his destructive urges.
Years of suppressed anger and power are clamoring to kill them, to let them die.
Before dawn, Yu Sui was still holding the Wind Listening Ruler when he sensed unusual energy fluctuations nearby—dangerous, murderous, and potentially lethal power.
This sent chills down her spine. She slowly sat up straight and looked at Mei Liangyu with a hint of surprise.
The man frowned and opened his eyes in the shadows.
His dark eyes were indifferent, his gaze sweeping lightly over Yu Sui before he sat up calmly.
Yu Sui remained silent.
She had seen Mei Liangyu wake up before, and at first she just thought that her senior brother was just grumpy when he woke up, judging from his unusual temperament.
Although Mei Liangyu had restrained himself considerably by now, Yu Sui could not forget the murderous intent and oppressive feeling that made her nerves tense for a while.
Yu Sui gazed at Mei Liangyu, who sat in the shadows with an indifferent expression, a few strands of hair falling gently from his forehead as he lowered his eyes.
She couldn't help but recall what her master had said before.
Perhaps it wasn't a joke or an exaggeration, but something that actually happened and might happen in the future.
Some people may seem normal, but like her, they are just a hair's breadth away from doing something that leads to utter ruin.
