Chapter 552: Chapter 461 Sky Splitter Overturning Sea + Chapter 462 Dream Traveling Immortal Pillow_4

"It must be that settling her longstanding grudge and removing years of obstacles has dispelled the inner demons, leaving her spirit and body free from shadows," Zhou Ping’an thought. "Her spirit is exceptionally radiant. This, then, is her true nature."

As he gazed into Lin Huaiyu’s eyes, which were pure and gentle like spring water, warmth spread through Zhou Ping’an’s heart. He tenderly stroked her cheek and lay down smiling on the pillow.

In his mind, he thought,

Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, Lin Huaiyu’s severe treatment of her own biological father may seem excessively cruel.

But if you put yourself in Lin Huaiyu’s shoes,

You would understand.

She only amputated Lin Zhongde’s limbs and didn’t kill him on the spot; this was actually showing mercy.

In her early years, Lin Huaiyu lived in the Lin Family, relying solely on her mother.

Without needing to guess too much, one could understand the kind of persecution they faced from Lin Zhongde, especially when he decided to ingratiate himself to Madam Wang to break through his individual cultivation limits.

Lady Bailin was poisoned when Lin Huaiyu was only twelve; she watched it all happen right before her eyes.

She didn’t even dare to cry.

She just hugged her two-year-old sister, shivering.

As for what the sisters later endured, what kind of treatment they received in the house,

That goes without saying.

Not even considered as part of the Lin family by many, Lady Bailin was buried in the desolate West Mountain.

And the Lin brothers, in order to please Fang Yu, even spoke of digging up Lady Bailin’s grave, compelling Lin Huaiyu to intervene...

This shows just how awkward and lowly the status of the Lin sisters was in the eyes of many in the Lin family.

It’s miraculous they managed to make it to Qingyang County.

Zhou Ping’an felt it was a miracle that the third Miss could survive, striving to prove herself useful, likely exhausting all her strength.

Thus, even if Lin Huaiyu herself killed her father and annihilated the Lin family, Zhou Ping’an didn’t think her actions excessively cruel; instead, he felt a sense of satisfaction.

How should one repay malice with kindness if not with kindness itself?

Whether it be a great man or a young woman, one should willingly embrace gratitude and revenge, leaving no regrets.

Otherwise, why bother practicing martial arts or pursuing the way?

Lying quietly on the jade pillow, his mind felt clear, free from distractions.

It felt like entering a deep, profound dream.

In his dream, someone demonstrated a technique.

His thoughts shifted to the "Sky-splitting Saber Technique."

Zhou Ping’an dreamt of himself relentlessly practicing, each strike clearer than the last, insights gradually forming, turning into countless tiny points of light, merging into his soul.

Each stroke was an improvement over the last...

It seemed as if, somehow, an unseen guide kept him on the right path.

"This!"

Zhou Ping’an was amazed.

This thing was extraordinary, aiding in enlightenment.

Then, he tried the Martial Intent.

Thinking of Lin Zhongde, who with ordinary martial skills and mediocre talent had managed to break through to the Grandmaster level of Divine Will Reach the Heavens in his fifties, he grew excited.

Indeed, when he activated the Invincible Martial Intent,

He found his will more clearly sensing that fierce and dominant grand star, its fluctuations slowly aligning with the stellar streaks of light...

"What a treasure."

Any object that could accelerate cultivation was precious and hard to come by.

After experiencing its effects, even with his composed nature, Zhou Ping’an couldn’t help but feel elated.

"This information must not get out; it has to remain a secret."

Immediately, he realized

Just how crucial this sort of family-inheriting, intellect-enhancing jade was.

Although unsure if it was useful at the True Martial Realm level, even if it only enhanced the cultivation of Martial Artists at the Ninth Level Mortal Refinement, it could still serve as a basis for a family’s foundation.

If it were also effective at the True Martial Realm level, it could save countless years of training.

That would infinitely increase the odds of breaking through to the Divine Martial realm.

No wonder Lin Zhongde was willing to perform such heartless and ruthless acts for this item.

According to Lin Huaiyu, when Lin Zhongde was gravely injured and near death, he encountered Lady Bailin, who saved his life with a Spirit Pill.

The two of them had a harmonious relationship for a while and shared some happy times.

Critically, at that time, Lady Bailin, just sixteen and without any opinions of her own and too scared to seek revenge, could only hide her identity and yearn for a peaceful life.

Beguiled by Lin Zhongde’s sweet talk, she lost herself to him, thus boarding a thief’s ship.

...

After all, the past is the past.

Zhou Ping’an wasn’t too concerned about how Lady Bailin entered the Lin family.

His concern was whether the Wang family was aware of this thing or not.

Lin Huaiyu’s face was solemn, "Logically, no one should be aware of this Spiritual Jade’s whereabouts. According to that poisonous widow from the Wang family, originally, this item was merely used as a counterfeit ’Dream Traveling Immortal Pillow’ at an auction.

Aside from causing some odd and peculiar dreams, the pillow seemed unremarkable... later, it was stolen by Madam Wang from her own home and brought to the Lin family, initially as a novelty to spice up her life.

One day, by accident, it was knocked to the ground and broke a corner, revealing the hidden Jade Core..."

This is indeed "a coincidence that could hardly be more fortuitous."

Before Zhou Ping’an could comment, he saw Lin Huaiyu beaming, "Brother Zhou, aren’t you just worried about how to kill the Blood Spirit Child? Why not use this pillow to accelerate understanding and see if it can be of some use."

"It’s useless; achieving a qualitative breakthrough is not an overnight feat. As for dealing with the Blood Spirit Child, I have another method."

Zhou Ping’an shook his head, "Keep the pillow for yourself; it would be best to quickly improve that movement technique. The faster you can escape in times of danger, the better."

"It would be too wasteful for me to use it; you use it instead. As long as you advance another step, Brother Zhou, we all will be safe."

Seeing Zhou Ping’an wanting to say something, Lin Huaiyu pressed her soft hand gently to his lips, and with a shy smile said, "Even if I were to practice, wouldn’t I be lying next to you? Silly..."

After she spoke, unable to suppress her blush, Lin Huaiyu quickly left the room.

Zhou Ping’an was momentarily stunned, then looking down at the "Dream Traveling Immortal Pillow," he couldn’t help but smile wryly.

Indeed, the pillow’s curved indentation could fit two people, but only if they hugged each other closely to sleep.
