The Phantom Potion works on the very essence of the soul, imprinting the complex.
Belonging to the Yin-Yang Dao, it is based on the attraction between men and women, and establishes a contract with the Dao, which is called the emotional contract.
Her domineering nature lies in crushing beings who have not yet comprehended the Yin-Yang Dao.
Once the contract is successfully concluded, life and death are forever intertwined.
Strictly speaking, it is an emotional enslavement of others, commonly known as a phantom, a drug that makes people lose their self-awareness and the ability to distinguish true lovers.
If Zheng Ya hadn't formed a covenant with Xing Guan first, he would have been poisoned by the illusionary puppet potion given to him by Wu Wei and enslaved by Wu Wei for life.
It would be a lie to say that he doesn't hate Wu Wei.
But Wu Wei has powerful backers, so even though Zheng Ya hates Wu Wei, he can only endure it and join forces with Xing Guan to start a counterattack?
First, this counterattack needs to achieve three things.
First, it is secretive, so that no one notices it.
Secondly, one cannot escape the realm of emotions, lest one's self-justification for the ineffectiveness of the illusion potion bring disaster upon oneself.
Third, this will resolve the emotional entanglement once and for all.
Otherwise, if the two sides have too much contact, they will eventually be exposed and bring trouble upon themselves.
Based on the above three points, it is almost impossible to achieve perfection.
However, when Zheng Ya and Xing Guan form a covenant of unity, and both activate their dual supernatural abilities simultaneously, they can unleash a special spiritual technique: the Covenant Knot.
This is a contract that applies to the emotions of living beings.
In theory, the two can work together to cast the Soul Knot Technique on any being whose soul origin quality is lower than their own. As long as the being does not upgrade its soul origin quality to exceed that of the two, it will never be able to break the Soul Knot until it dies.
The effect of the love knot applies to various emotions such as love, kinship, and greed, but at the moment the love knot is tied, it can only grant the target being an emotional contract that is permanent.
It doesn't seem to have any lethality.
But every living being ultimately toils and labors for its own emotions until death.
At this moment, Wu Wei's emotions were a fantasy about enslaving Zheng Ya for her own use, not affection. She coveted Zheng Ya as an ally, a puppet, to be used by her, and to have all of Zheng Ya's resources at her disposal.
To put it bluntly, it's a possessive mania in progress.
Zheng Ya and Xing Guan could only treat Wu Wei's symptoms by subtly initiating a "Knot of Unity" with her. When Wu Wei approached Zheng Ya and encouraged him to drink, in order to check the effects of the Illusion Puppet Potion on Zheng Ya, the Knot of Unity quietly formed.
This is an invisible and colorless knot of soul origin, resembling an intricate rune.
Only Zheng Ya and Xing Guan could see it.
After all, it was the combined power of their soul essence, just like seeing their own primordial clone. They clearly watched as the heart-shaped knot flashed and disappeared into Wu Wei's soul essence: "Buzz."
With a slight tremor in the essence of their souls, the bond of unity was successfully formed.
Zheng Ya and his fourteen wives and concubines, under the shared visual perception of the Concentric Realm, scrutinized Wu Wei's changes from all angles. Everyone was on high alert; they had to succeed!
Failure might mean certain death?
After all, everyone knows that the person behind Wuwei is a big shot in the government.
In order to prevent their cheating from being exposed, they would have to kill them to silence them and ensure their own safety.
To put it bluntly, it's a dead end where the true intentions are revealed.
A counterattack that teetered on the brink of death.
Don't even mention that Zheng Ya and Xing Guan were saved three times by the lotus mark; it was only a three-time life-saving measure.
With the fate of the fifteen people at stake, they were all placed within the Hunyuan Barrier, leaving Zheng Ya to bear the brunt alone. Whether he could hold out until the official leaders arrived in time, even with the Lotus Mark protecting him three times, was still unknown!
This is like an adult stepping on an ant.
How could an ant withstand being trampled by an adult? Even if you manage to avoid being trampled three times, what about the fourth or fifth time?
The disparity in strength between them is too great; they could crush you with ease.
Therefore, at this moment, all fifteen people were on tenterhooks, watching Wu Wei's every move.
Wu Wei felt a tremor in his soul's origin, and after a moment of surprise, he came to his senses. His original rhapsody of greed for Zheng Ya to become a puppet had changed. The ambush from all sides was now dedicated to the carefree life of the martial arts world. In the darkness, he and Zheng Ya had become kindred spirits and confidants!
"We enjoyed the drinks tonight, just like our win-win cooperation. From now on, let's strive for perfection. What do you think?" Wu Wei sat back down and respectfully clasped his hands in a fist salute.
Heaven is my confidant, and I feel a deep respect for it!
This is a reverence that comes from the very source of the soul, as if it were a divine gift.
Zheng Ya was so caught off guard that she almost couldn't react, thinking to herself, "Is she treating me like a brother or sister of the same sex?"
"A true friend is someone who is not limited by gender."
It is another kind of emotion comparable to the sincere feelings between men and women.
Or perhaps she had longed for a confidant, for the help of a close friend, for a long time beyond everything, and we just happened to stumble upon it—a miracle.” Xing Guan, after studying Zheng Ya’s three lifetimes of life experiences and being influenced by online information, suddenly understood.
This Wu Wei is a narcissist who doesn't believe in love or family at all, yet she longs to find a soulmate.
Strictly speaking, it was Wu Wei's background that influenced her personal emotions.
Human emotions are extremely complex.
It's hard to say which path one's emotions will ultimately lean towards.
However, it cannot be denied that the extreme direction of personal emotions is closely related to one's personal nature.
Zheng Ya was impressed and stood up to apologize, saying, "Alright, it's a pleasure to cooperate with you!"
"Haha, goodbye!"
"Goodbye!"
After the two said their goodbyes, Wu Wei vanished in a flash. Zheng Ya felt a wave of relief wash over him, but the alcohol kicked in, and he vomited violently, coughing and retching.
"Quickly fetch some water to wash my husband..." Xing Guan and the others rushed to the hall to take care of him.
They all take meticulous care of their husbands, never using any supernatural abilities, and personally attending to their every need.
They each performed their duties—massaging, washing, wiping, brewing hangover soup, etc.—and were all busy and happy.
Zheng Ya, enjoying the bliss of having two women, sobered up considerably while nestled in Xing Guan's arms, and hummed softly, "Hmm, you two are so virtuous, it's making me intoxicated..."
Hehe, no way!
"With me pushing you, you won't become complacent in your comfort zone. The attentive service from your sisters comes at a price!" Xing Guan said with satisfaction, stating an objective fact: enjoyment is proportional to the effort put in.
As he became obsessed with the impossible, Zheng Ya's responsibilities as the head of the family grew stronger day by day.
In particular, the crisis implied by Xing Guan has not been resolved, and the hidden danger of Wu Wei remains unresolved.
You have no right to indulge in pleasure until the danger to the lives of your entire family is eliminated. Strive on, my husband!
Zheng Ya knew perfectly well: "Is this leading me from a double agent to someone who's dealing with a tiger for its skin?"
"Well, isn't that like asking a tiger for its skin?"
After all, we temporarily managed Wu Wei's feelings for her as a confidante using the "Knot of Unity," but it wasn't a sure thing.
"If the big boss behind her sees through our tricks, the consequences will be unpredictable." Xing Guan's smile faded, and she said seriously.
Xu Qi sighed, "It seems we can only hope that the person behind Wu Wei isn't paying attention to her situation for the time being, otherwise..."
