Chapter 219 Four Pillars of Pure Yin, A Body of Complete Yin
He leaned closer to Shen Yuepo and lowered his voice, "After being taken to the hospital, the doctor examined her and said it was due to overwork and jet lag."
"But I don't believe it! You don't know my sister, her schedule is as regular as a Swiss clock, she goes to bed at 11 o'clock every night!"
"I suspect my sister was exposed to something unclean, but she has the amulet I gave her!"
Lu Jin spoke at a rapid pace, like a machine gun:
"If it were truly possessed by something evil, even if the amulet couldn't suppress it, shouldn't it have some reaction? Like getting hot or turning black? At least it shouldn't be this quiet, right?"
After listening, Shen Yuepo pondered for a moment and then said, "Take me to see it."
Lu Jin pretended to be eager for this and immediately led Shen Yuepo to the ward.
As he walked, he briefly explained the situation: "My sister's name is Lu Zheng, she is thirty-one years old, and she manages my father's company abroad. She just returned to China last month. She has always been in good health and has no problems with her annual physical examinations."
Lu Jin stopped in front of ward 808 and knocked on the door.
The woman who opened the door was in her fifties, and her features bore a resemblance to Lu Jin's.
She was clearly taken aback when she saw Shen Yuepo behind Lu Jin.
“Mom, this is Master Shen.” Lu Jin stepped aside to make room for him, her tone solemn. “He’s the one I’ve mentioned to you before, the one who helped me with a lot of things.”
Lu's mother's gaze fell on Shen Yuepo.
The girl in front of him was too young, and her cool face showed little emotion. Only her eyes were dark and calm, as if they could see through all appearances.
This is far from the image of a master she had imagined.
She quickly looked away, a polite smile appearing on her face: "Master Shen, hello. Thank you for making this special trip."
Shen Yuepo nodded and walked into the ward.
The room was very large; it was a suite.
The outer room is a reception area, furnished with sofas and a coffee table.
The hospital bed was in the inner room; through the half-open door, Lu Zheng could be seen lying on the bed.
"Would it be convenient to see her?" Shen Yuepo asked.
A hint of hesitation flashed across Lu's mother's face as she turned her gaze to her son.
"mom."
Lu Jin stepped forward, her voice low but unusually calm, "Let Master Shen take a look. We've done all the necessary tests. Perhaps we need to change our approach."
Seeing this, Lu's mother didn't say anything more and stepped aside to make way for him, saying, "Thank you for your trouble, Master Shen."
Shen Yuepo walked into the inner room.
Lu's mother yielded and stepped aside to make way.
Shen Yuepo walked into the inner room. The curtains of the ward were half-drawn, and the light was dim.
Lu Zheng lay on the bed, breathing steadily, her face rosy, looking as if she were asleep.
Shen Yuepo's gaze pierced through appearances and landed on Lu Zheng's mind.
The three souls and seven spirits are all present and not missing, but they are firmly imprisoned within the body by a layer of yin and gray energy.
This method of confinement is ingenious; it does not harm the physical body or the soul, but forcibly severs the soul's active connection with the outside world and even with the body itself, causing the soul's owner to fall into a deep sleep.
Shen Yuepo stepped forward, gathering a wisp of spiritual power at his fingertips, and gently touched the layer of gray energy.
"Buzz!"
An aura that seemed both righteous and malevolent emanated from the spiritual energy.
Yun Jingyan!
Shen Yuepo withdrew her hand, turned to Lu Jin, and said calmly, "Mr. Lu, I need to know your sister's exact birth date and time, not a single minute off."
Seeing Shen Yuepo's solemn expression, Lu Jin knew that the matter was of great importance and immediately looked at his mother.
Although Lu's mother was unaware of what was going on, she was intimidated by the sudden chilling aura emanating from Shen Yuepo and dared not be negligent, so she immediately reported a date and time.
Shen Yuepo quickly calculated in his mind.
In just a few seconds, her eyes narrowed suddenly, and she whispered, "Year of Guihai, month of Guihai, day of Guihai, hour of Guihai, all four pillars are Yin... This is a body of complete Yin."
"A body entirely of Yin?" Lu Jin's breath hitched. Although he didn't understand metaphysics very well, he had read novels!
This kind of fate is usually most favored by evil cultivators!
Could my sister be being harassed by some pervert?!
"Um."
Shen Yuepo's gaze fell on Lu Zheng again, and this time, she looked at her even more carefully.
Surrounding Lu Zheng's soul light, which was enveloped in gray confinement, she vaguely saw a layer of resilient golden light gently protecting her.
This golden light formed a delicate balance with her extremely yin destiny, allowing her to live peacefully and smoothly to this day despite her special destiny, and even accumulate merit and golden light.
"Does Miss Lu have been involved in charity work for many years? Or does the Lu family's business have any large-scale, continuous charitable activities?" Shen Yuepo suddenly asked.
Mrs. Lu was taken aback for a moment, then quickly nodded: "Yes! When Xiaozheng was abroad, she was in charge of the family's charitable foundation, personally helping to build schools and provide medical assistance."
"After returning to China, she immediately took over domestic charity projects. Master, is this... related to her illness?"
"It's relevant, and crucial." Shen Yuepo's voice was low. She quickly took out her phone and glanced at the date, her heart sinking.
"Tonight is the night of the full moon." She looked up at the still gray sky outside the window, her eyes filled with an unprecedented solemnity.
"At midnight, the yin energy is at its peak, which is also the time when the power of a person with a completely yin constitution is drawn to its zenith."
She quickly connected all the clues.
Yun Jingyan reconstructed his physical body, but what he lacked was not the form, but the ability to perfectly merge with the body formed from Xiao Zhentian's evil bones.
Lu Zheng's entirely Yin body is an excellent vessel and catalyst.
When the moon is full and extremely yin, her destiny will spontaneously attract the yin energy between heaven and earth.
The golden light of merit accumulated from her good deeds was the perfect disguise for Yun Jingyan, a god who plundered the essence of others and was full of sins.
No wonder Yun Jingyan didn't come looking for me...
It turns out that he has already found a substitute that allows his physical body and soul to merge!
He imprisoned Lu Zheng's soul without harming her, intending to forcibly extract her entire Yin soul and golden light of merit using evil magic at midnight of the full moon.
On the one hand, it was used to completely stabilize his physical body.
On the other hand, the golden light of merit can help him cover up some of his sinful aura, making it easier for him to integrate into the mortal world and evade the will of Heaven.
He might even take this opportunity to purify all the golden light power he plundered and enhance his own divine power.
The ward was so quiet you could hear a pin drop; the only sound was the rhythmic ticking of the medical equipment, which only amplified Lu's mother and Lu Jin's growing anxiety.
Seeing the shifting light in Shen Yuepo's eyes, their unease reached its peak.
Lu's mother couldn't help but ask in a trembling voice, "Master Shen, how... is Xiao Zheng?"
Lu Jin stepped forward, her voice tense: "Master, please tell me the truth if anything happens. I can handle it!"
Shen Yuepo snapped out of her thoughts, looked up at the mother and son, and spoke with remarkable clarity in the quiet ward:
"Miss Lu's three souls and seven spirits are still present, but they have been imprisoned in her body by someone using extremely sophisticated magic, and she is unable to awaken on her own."
Lu's mother's vision went black, and she staggered a step before being supported by Lu Jin.
Lu Jin forced a calm demeanor and pressed on, "Who is it?!"
Could it be a competitor of the Lu family?
Upon hearing this, Shen Yuepo's gaze swept past Lu Zheng's peaceful sleeping face and fell on the darkening sky outside the window.
“A former god.” Her tone was slightly somber. “If my calculations are correct, someone will come tonight to extract Lu Zheng’s soul.”
"Extracting the soul?!" Mother Lu's voice changed in shock, and she instinctively gripped her son's arm tightly.
"Call the police! We'll call the police right now! This is a hospital, how dare they do anything reckless?!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yuepo slowly shook his head, pouring cold water on the situation, "It's useless."
"The person who orchestrated this is now considered half-human, half-god, transcending the Five Elements. The methods he uses cannot be punished by ordinary weapons or legal provisions."
She paused, then said, "Even if the Special Cases Bureau comes, they probably won't be able to do anything to him."
Lu Jin gasped.
Although Lu's mother didn't quite understand, she sensed despair from Shen Yuepo's solemn tone.
"Then...what can we do? Are we just going to watch Xiaozheng..." Mother Lu said, tears streaming down her face.
Shen Yuepo turned her gaze to Lu Jin, "Mr. Lu, do you believe me?"
Lu Jin met her gaze.
The woman before him was excessively young, with a cool and aloof demeanor, unlike any other accomplished person he had ever encountered.
But it was also she who helped him time and time again.
More importantly, at this moment, he couldn't think of any other way but to trust her.
Without the slightest hesitation, Lu Jin said decisively, "I trust you! Master Shen, please tell me what you need me to do."
Upon receiving this affirmative answer, Shen Yuepo nodded.
"good."
Her gaze swept over the seemingly safe, high-class ward. "After nightfall, please take your mother home immediately. Do not leave anyone else at the hospital."
“But…” Lu Jin glanced at her sister on the hospital bed, how could she leave in peace?
“Miss Lu, I will guard this place.” Shen Yuepo’s tone was calm, but it carried an undeniable determination. “Your presence here will not only be of no use, but may also become bargaining chips for the other side, distracting me.”
Lu Jin instantly understood the stakes involved.
Against opponents of that caliber, he and his mother were indeed just a burden.
"I see."
He took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and squeezed his mother's cold hand tightly. "Mom, we'll follow Master Shen's arrangements."
Despite her deep worries, Lu's mother saw the rare seriousness in her son's eyes and finally nodded with tears in her eyes.
"Master Shen." Lu Jin looked at Shen Yuepo with unusual seriousness and bowed deeply.
"My sister... I'm entrusting her to you. If she needs anything, please contact me anytime. The entire Lu family is willing to do anything for her!"
Shen Yuepo slightly turned her body to avoid the bow, and simply said, "It's my duty."
Lu Jin said no more and immediately helped his mother to the outer room to discuss the arrangements in hushed tones and contact the driver.
Shen Yuepo then turned her attention back to the ward.
She walked to the window and with a "whoosh," completely pulled the half-drawn curtains shut, cutting off the last rays of sunlight and prying eyes from the outside world.
She did not set up any protective formations on Lu Zheng or in the ward, which would have been tantamount to telling the other party that she was prepared.
Yun Jingyan is as cunning as a fox. Trying to alert him will only make him change his plans and make him even more difficult to guard against.
