Chapter 130 Conan's Physique Under the Revival of Spiritual Energy (Part Fourteen)
Peng Nanyu was still lying on his side on the bed, his eyes narrowed to slits, as if he were taking a nap.
His palms were bent, and his body was tensed in a strange posture, like a ferocious beast that had planned its hunt, occasionally letting out a low hiss from his throat.
Luo Binbai was completely unaware; he lay flat on the bed like a wooden doll, just as rigid as he appeared.
Even from a distance, Si Yisi, who was living in the property that had been reclaimed, noticed the unusual situation.
Or rather—as the embodiment of the nation's destiny, whatever happens throughout the entire territory will obediently be presented to him if he so desires.
Similarly, it would be very easy for him to do something remotely.
The black dragon's phantom hooked its whiskers around Si Yisi's finger, acting coquettishly. If it weren't for Ah Tu being in the true "dragon transformation" stage, Si Yisi would have really thought that the black dragon had been possessed by him.
But for now, the only thing Si Yisi is willing to pay attention to is his dormitory, which is full of hidden talents.
"Awakening... demonic energy is increasing." He murmured these words, a dark light flashing in his eyes.
Peng Nanyu slowly arched his body, like an arrow ready to be shot at any moment, and he did indeed shoot the arrow—he actually grabbed the iron railing by the bed and swung to Luo Binbai's bedside with the railing swaying slightly!
The weight of a grown person was placed on the bed board, yet it did not make the slightest sound.
Peng Nanyu's hand slid onto Luo Binbai's carotid artery, his fingernails seemingly capable of slicing it open at any moment, causing blood to seep from his neck!
Luo Binbai was completely unaware!
Just as Peng Nanyu's fingernails were about to scrape against his neck, his fingers inexplicably curled up slightly.
His attack was interrupted by his own movement, as if a stop button had been pressed. Peng Nanyu subconsciously shook his head a few times; he would go back the way he came.
Before heading back, he let out a low, inhuman growl in Luo Binbai's direction.
accurate.
**This requirement was not met.**
But Luo Binbai lay back down in his original position, all traces of danger gone, and soon began to groan softly as he fell asleep.
Hmm? Si Yisi also curled her fingers, and a wisp of black smoke left in the dormitory quickly slipped away through the crack in the window after the alarm was lifted.
The last impression it brought back to Si Yisi was of Peng Nanyu, lying on his side, fast asleep.
And... a pair of bright blue eyes that suddenly opened in the darkness.
The owner of the eyes gave Si Yisi a shy, gentle smile through the image.
George.
"Hmph..." Si Yisi snorted and lay back down on the bed.
Peng Nanyu's demonic energy suddenly increased, and even in his sleep, the demonic energy controlled his body to attack living people.
And George? Sisley knew he must have watched the whole thing from beginning to end.
Just as Peng Nanyu was about to kill Luo Binbai, he didn't even flinch.
Beneath that gentle exterior lurked inhuman qualities—the smile he offered at the end was hardly a warm one; it was a sharp knife wrapped in chocolate, nothing short of a provocation!
As for why Peng Nanyu ultimately didn't take action...
Si Yisi's sharp expression softened, becoming slightly gentler—it wasn't George or any other being who interrupted, but rather Peng Nanyu's own will.
His "humanity" prevented him from killing even when he was acting irrationally.
Even if it was Luo Binbai, whom he particularly disliked from the beginning.
In some ways, Peng Nanyu can no longer be called a demon; he is now human—and since he has become human, he is a subject of Li Banxue and Si Yisi!
No matter what, he will protect him!
Si Yisi chuckled softly. The black dragon phantom that had appeared around him returned to his body the instant it withdrew its power—at first glance, it looked as if it had embraced him.
A cacophony of sounds reached Si Yisi's ears; it was the lurking demons and monsters in the darkness.
They didn't act alone, but rather swarmed in like a mob!
Amidst the noise, Si Yisi suddenly and coincidentally caught a sound that was old yet firm.
"How is the barrier being set up in Lincheng?"
"It's all set up, but Master, the divination shows that we are doomed this time. Lin City will fall and become a deadly place overrun by demons!"
That was a rather young voice, and it was full of spiritual energy.
Otherwise… Si Yisi would never have been able to detect their voices. Aside from those he deliberately focused on, only cultivators with exceptionally abundant spiritual power could receive the favor of the nation's destiny!
The existence of these cultivators was as conspicuous as the specks of light. Si Yisi frowned slightly.
The aged practitioner spoke again: "A divination? Divinations are ever-changing. Do you know that the result you arrive at is necessarily accurate?"
“Isn’t that… destiny?” The disciple’s voice lowered.
"The Mandate of Heaven—?" Chen Liusui chuckled, casting his gaze into the distance as if searching for something. "What is the Mandate of Heaven for China?"
“It is… the destiny of the nation!” he said decisively. “As long as the destiny remains, Lin City will never fall, because… man can overcome fate.”
"Man can conquer nature!"
As Chen Liusui's voice rang out, Si Yisi felt tiny specks of light travel straight towards her from the location of the voice and merge into her body!
In that instant... a little of the filth on the black dragon's body melted away!
The power of faith, pure faith.
Si Yisi's smile became much more genuine. He loosely clenched his fist, as the black aura clashed with pure faith.
At this moment, the look in his eyes was so sharp, yet at the same time, Si Yisi was laughing—laughing loudly.
What is the destiny of China? It is the national fortune, it is Li Banxue, and now... it is Si Yisi!
As long as fortune endures and faith remains steadfast, human will can conquer nature. Si Yisi likes this saying, so he will do everything in his power!
Chen Liusui paused, "Did you hear laughter?" He heard a boy's clear voice, as refreshing as a clear pool. Then he answered himself, his brows, which had been furrowed with suppressed emotion, relaxed a little.
"That's the dragon vein! It's inspiring us! We must fight with all our might to defend Lin City!"
the next day.
As soon as Peng Nanyu opened his eyes, he saw Luo Binbai's face. He turned his head away unhappily and met George's smiling face.
Sigh—I don't know why, but he felt a sense of awe and distance from George.
It's like knowing that you and he are not on the same path.
It wasn't because I felt inferior to him because I thought I couldn't keep up with his abilities; it was simply a subtle feeling.
"Heh." Peng Nanyu's movement made the bed creak, waking Luo Binbai. He glanced at Peng Nanyu warily, deliberately avoiding any possible attack, before blurting out, "Are you trying to die?!"
Peng Nanyu retorted, "Even if I'm going to die, I'll kill you first."
Peng Nanyu was unaware that he had a hundred chances to kill Luo Binbai the night before, but he still didn't make a move.
"Knock knock knock".
Ruan Zichang personally took action and very gentlemanly knocked on the Liang family's door. He had inquired beforehand and found out that Li Banxue, whom he had brought to intimidate him, had been staying at this family's house.
He couldn't find any connection between the deaths of the Liang family members and Li Banxue, but he knew that the Liang family's siblings and Li Banxue had never gotten along. Their lack of brotherly affection indirectly suggested that the Liang family also harbored resentment towards Li Banxue.
And look—the information we found includes the older sister's accusations and harsh words against Li Banxue, calling her a heartless ingrate who stole their house.
"Hello, is anyone home?"
Ruan Zichang was very good at putting on a show, and soon he heard a heavy footstep.
The door creaked open.
