Chapter 408: Chapter 402 Heart Demon

"Is it true?"

"What do you mean ’is it true’?"

Upon hearing the report from the old butler, Ye Zhen and his father Ye Tiancheng, who were drinking tea, looked at each other, puzzled.

"Master, madam, the madam is...!"

Ye Tiancheng looked at Ye Zhen, "You mean...the Young Lady?"

But Ye Zhen looked at his father, Ye Tiancheng, Caiyi? Could it be so soon?

"It’s the old madam, the old madam is!"

"What?"

With a tremble of his hand, Ye Tiancheng knocked over the teacup unconsciously and dashed out, and Ye Zhen was also flustered—Mother Mi Jiangxue was actually...pregnant!

After sealing a hefty red envelope for the old doctor, Ye Zhen and Caiyi simultaneously placed their hands on their mother Mi Jiangxue’s wrist.

Compared to those ordinary doctors, Ye Zhen and Caiyi, with their potent Divine Soul Power as martial artists, were far superior in diagnosing illnesses.

After the examination, Ye Zhen and Caiyi both revealed astonished expressions.

"Brother Ye Zhen, it seems like...there are two!"

"Twins..."

Ye Zhen was stunned, and Ye Tiancheng was ecstatically foolish, having twins at their age was indeed a tremendous joy.

This incident left Ye Zhen somewhat baffled; could this also be the power of providence?

The Ye Tiancheng couple had caught a cold after giving birth to Ye Zhen nineteen years ago, and the diagnosing doctor had declared that Mi Jiangxue would have no more children in this lifetime.

Unexpectedly, now there were twins?

However, it’s hard to say with certainty.

Perhaps it was due to the Stone Marrow Spirit Liquid Ye Zhen had given his parents two years ago to heal their hidden injuries, or maybe....

With Mi Jiangxue’s joyful news, a worry in Ye Zhen’s heart was also alleviated.

Previously, Ye Tiancheng’s couple had only Ye Zhen as their son. Guilty for always adventuring away and not being able to perform his filial duties well, Ye Zhen felt remorseful. Moreover, Ye Tiancheng’s couple also missed Ye Zhen profoundly.

Now that Ye Zhen was gaining siblings, he believed that their parents’ longing would lessen when he was adventuring out and about, having siblings at home to provide filial piety would set his mind at ease.

Since his mother was pregnant, Ye Zhen couldn’t leave just yet.

The aptitudes of martial artists, besides being inherited through lineage, also greatly depended on prenatal nurturing, which is why many descendants of ancient grand families were nearly always geniuses.

In the past, the Ye Family didn’t have the resources, but now things were different.

Ye Zhen sent out a Dao Talisman. The Black Water Royal Court and Qiyun Sect’s treasure trove of pregnancy secrets and a variety of spiritual medicines were sent to Ye Mansion.

After diligently caring for his mother for several days and explaining the methods of consuming these spiritual medicines and secrets, Ye Zhen departed reluctantly with Caiyi.

.....

"Eh, Caiyi, you look... after not seeing you for a few days,"

Inside the Qiyun Sect, Caiyi, who had just returned to the sect, encountered Liao Feibai. She only said a word when a flush of red crept up her face, immediately alerting Liao Feibai to something unusual, who then pulled her aside to whisper.

"Hmph, Ye Zhen, you’re too bold. If I find out you’re not treating Caiyi well in the future, hmph!"

In Liao Feibai’s hand, a sword glowing with cold spirit light suddenly appeared, and with a fierce slash downwards, it frightened Ye Zhen so much that he turned tail and ran.

Watching the departing Ye Zhen, Liao Feibai suddenly let out a melancholic sigh...

.....

So-called newlyweds are roughly referring to Ye Zhen and Caiyi’s situation.

Their days were so inextricably bound together, they were practically like a couple of deities.

Yet, every night when it was quiet, Caiyi would sit alone on the mountain top, blankly staring at the night sky.

"Caiyi, you’re thinking about them again..."

Ye Zhen’s voice arose behind Caiyi, who was sitting alone; soon, Caiyi, with tears covering her face, threw herself into Ye Zhen’s arms.

"Brother Ye Zhen, I desperately try to control myself not to think about them, but the less I want to think, the more I end up thinking, I’m already losing control of myself, Brother Ye Zhen, what should I do?"

"Brother Ye Zhen, I really want to know, what do my birth parents look like?

I also want to know, why did they abandon me...."

As Caiyi cried, the grass and rocks on the mountain peak began to float into the air, and terrifying mental fluctuations suddenly rose, even causing large boulders weighing thousands of kilograms to slowly float up.

Within moments, even Fairy Peak was shaking violently under these profound mental fluctuations, and a terrifying divine soul power took form in an instant because of Caiyi’s emotional fluctuations.

"Ye Zhen, what’s happened?"

Streams of light arose from all directions of Qiyun Sect, anxiously focusing on Fairy Peak. The massive fluctuations of divine soul power even made Sect Leader Guo Qijing nervous.

Such terrifying fluctuations of divine soul power, if not handled properly, could possibly turn tens of thousands in Qiyun Sect into imbeciles overnight, or even worse, dead!

Ye Zhen’s expression turned extraordinarily solemn in an instant.

The longing and resentment Caiyi harbored for her never-seen parents had indeed become like a heart demon.

If not properly guided, it might provoke a catastrophe!

Fortunately, Ye Zhen’s divine soul power was no less formidable, and having the closest relationship with Caiyi, he managed to calm her rapidly rising divine soul power with great effort.

That mysterious man, surrounded by five-colored spirit light tearing through the void, his last words again resurfaced in Ye Zhen’s mind.

"Caiyi, if there comes a day when you wish to return to your kin or seek out your birth parents, channel your awakened bloodline power into this Five-colored Stone, and it will transport you to your kin..."

Five-colored Stone...

...

"Ye Zhen, as the saying goes, only the hand that tied the bell can untie it. Since ancient times, heart demons have never been something that external forces can resolve. At best, they can be suppressed, and that only in cases where there is a vast difference in divine soul power, but even then it causes harm to the one being suppressed.

Caiyi’s divine soul cultivation, you are well aware of...."

Listening to Sect Leader Guo Qijing’s words, Ye Zhen’s face was filled with a bitter smile.

He had not expected that this would happen in the end.

However, on the other hand, the more innocent a person is, the harder it is to resolve their obsessions once they arise!

Heart demon....

Ye Zhen hadn’t expected that after returning home, he would end up having a... heart demon!

"Caiyi, since you have the Five-colored Stone, why don’t you try activating it..." Ye Zhen said, his heart convulsing as he spoke.

Caiyi’s so-called native place was far away, separated by countless spatial worlds. Once she left....

"But.... but Brother Ye Zhen, I.... can’t bear to leave you...."

Caiyi burst into tears, and at this moment, Ye Zhen finally understood the conflict within her.

It was about her choice between him and her parents.

The feelings between Ye Zhen and Caiyi were deep. Caiyi couldn’t bear to leave.

But the inseparable blood ties between Caiyi and her parents always weighed heavily on her heart.

Ever since that encounter with the mysterious man in Ten Thousand Spirit Valley, this matter had been lingering in Caiyi’s mind. However, Caiyi’s mental state was extremely strong. Although she occasionally thought of it, it didn’t affect her much.

It was only after returning to the Ye Mansion that she was completely influenced by the affection of Ye Zhen’s parents and the feeling of home, which disrupted her mental state and could no longer be suppressed, resulting in the current situation.

"Caiyi, I can’t bear to leave you either, shall I accompany you to find your parents?" Ye Zhen asked.

"Brother Ye Zhen, I would like that! But.... only those of my clan’s bloodline can use the Five-colored Stone...."

"Then...."

At that moment, Ye Zhen’s heart was also in turmoil!

However, Ye Zhen couldn’t just watch Caiyi’s heart demon grow stronger by the day; he reluctantly urged her to use the Five-colored Stone to seek her kin.

The high-ranking members of the Qiyun Sect were on edge for several days, fearing that the overwhelming power of the divine soul would suddenly burst, leaving Qiyun Sect with countless idiots.

Even the disciples within ten miles of Fairy Peak were evacuated by Guo Qijing, leaving only Ye Zhen and Caiyi. Only Liao Feibai would occasionally come over to offer solace.

Ye Zhen’s suggestion was neither accepted nor rejected by Caiyi, but it did become more mysterious.

Every day, she held the Five-colored Stone, contemplating something, as five-colored spiritual light constantly rippled around her, gradually revealing an indescribable ethereal aura on her.

In the silent chamber of Fairy Peak, Ye Zhen and Caiyi, after rejoicing, nestled together whispering, slowly Ye Zhen drifted into deep sleep, while Caiyi, who should also have been sleeping, slowly opened her beautiful eyes.

As her beautiful eyes opened, two lines of silent tears streamed down, looking at Ye Zhen with immense sorrow in her eyes, full of reluctance!

The tears silently wet the floral pillow.

Suddenly, a flash of light appeared in Caiyi’s beautiful eyes, as if she had made some difficult decision.

She gently got up, left a kiss on Ye Zhen’s forehead, and gazed at him, retreating, drifting out. A plain handkerchief also gently floated out, landing on Ye Zhen’s chest.

As she floated to the door, Caiyi’s figure suddenly shot up into the sky, the long-held Five-colored Stone suddenly appeared in her hand.

High in the sky, holding the Five-colored Stone, staring at Fairy Peak, her delicate hands, trembling

Almost the moment Caiyi quietly left, the sleeping Ye Zhen opened his eyes, his mouth filled with bitterness.

With such a big movement from Caiyi, and with his divine soul power, how could he possibly be oblivious?

In fact, when Caiyi’s silent tears fell, Ye Zhen had already woken up.

The words written on the handkerchief suddenly appeared before Ye Zhen’s eyes: "Brother Ye Zhen, forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye. However, I must leave, as I do not wish for my heart demon to harm the place that nourished and raised me.

These past days, I have somewhat mastered the secret technique of my clan. The return is not difficult.

If swift, it will take a year at most, three years, and no matter across Qianshan and myriad domains, I shall.... return!"

"No matter across Qianshan and myriad domains, I shall.... return!"

When the last line entered his field of vision, Ye Zhen’s eyes suddenly welled up.

Ye Zhen knew, Caiyi hadn’t yet left, still hovering in the sky dome.

However, Ye Zhen didn’t go out, just quietly waiting, waiting for that moment when five-colored spiritual light fluctuated to arrive.

Only when that moment came would Ye Zhen walk out to see her off.

Because Ye Zhen was well aware, if he went out to see her off right now, Caiyi wouldn’t bear to leave him, and she might never be able to take that step.

"Brother Ye Zhen, wait for me, I will definitely come back!"

In the sky, a strand of five-colored light suddenly surged into the Five-colored Stone held by Caiyi. In an instant, the light burst forth, illuminating the entire night sky as if it were daylight.

As the light from the Five-colored Stone burst forth, a massive amount of five-colored brilliance flowed out of the stone, gradually enveloping Caiyi like a cocoon.

The void began to shake, the mountain gate of the Qiyun Sect started to tremble, the space around the five-colored light cocoon began to collapse.

"Caiyi, have a smooth journey!"

Just at that moment, Ye Zhen stepped out of the house, softly waving to the sky.

"Brother Ye Zhen, wait for me! Be sure to wait for me, no matter across Qianshan and myriad domains, as long as my divine soul remains unbroken, I will definitely... come back..."

Amidst the soft murmur from the cocoon of light, the five-colored cocoon, like a meteor, instantly burst forth into the heavens...

"I’ll wait for you...."

At this moment, Ye Zhen seemed to hear Caiyi’s heartfelt voice.....(To be continued. If you enjoyed this work, feel welcome to vote or subscribe at Qidian (qidian.com). Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
