Chapter 1279 Crushing the System
Prime Minister's Residence Ranxi Garden
Qian Yuan sent his visiting card in advance, and the next day he brought Hui Weilan to visit Yunxi. Since it was a private visit and they did not want to disturb too many people, they used a trick to go directly to Ranxi Garden.
Yunxi was actually quite curious about who this person was who could so forcefully reverse the fate of Qianyuan, a Nascent Soul True Monarch. So after receiving the invitation, she was quite looking forward to it.
When Qian Yuan brought Hui Weilan to Yun Xi, she immediately noticed Hui Weilan's inconsistency. Although the female cultivator in front of her was only sixteen years old, her worldly and experienced eyes betrayed her true age. Although her smile was charming, she could not hide the scheming in her eyes.
The moment Hui Weilan saw Yun Xi, a voice in her mind cried out in alarm:
“A person with great fortune, her fortune is purple with gold. If I can absorb her fortune, I can level up, and your cultivation will also increase dramatically. It’s best to find a reason to stay by her side. You must not let this opportunity slip by.”
Hui Weilan greeted Yun Xi with a warm smile while communicating with her system:
"What about the quest to conquer the Abyss? Should we just give up on it?"
The system's voice was almost splitting into two parts:
"Are you stupid? The reason you were trying to win over Qian Yuan was to seize his fortune. Now there are better targets with more abundant fortune and easier to obtain. Why are you still thinking about Qian Yuan? Are you reluctant to part with his face? Once you break through to the Nascent Soul stage, what kind of male cultivator can't you find? At that time, those people will be throwing themselves at you. You should focus on winning over the woman in front of you first."
"okay, I get it."
After Hui Weilan finished communicating, Yunxi overheard the entire conversation and realized that the culprit was the system Hui Weilan had mentioned. This made her even more intrigued, but now that the system had become her target, things were not looking good.
At this moment, Hui Weilan was feigning concern as she made a suggestion to Qian Yuan:
“Master, Miss Yunxi’s body is indeed a bit weak. Why don’t I stay at the Prime Minister’s residence for the time being and use my spiritual power to nourish her body? It will only take three days at most. After that, I will go to complete my mission. It shouldn’t be a problem.”
Qian Yuan was about to nod when he saw Hui Weilan, who had just been smiling, scream and collapse to the ground, clutching her head and crying out in pain, pleading repeatedly:
"Stop! Stop! Master, save me!"
Qian Yuan was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to make a move, a faint voice entered his ears:
“Grand Preceptor Qianyuan, if I were you, I would not help her.”
Yunxi's words froze Qianyuan's movements. He didn't intervene to stabilize Huiweilan's condition. Moreover, as the other party screamed in agony, the reluctance and regret in his heart were slowly fading, as if his previous attraction to Huiweilan was a mistake. This made his brows furrow even more tightly.
Yunxi's spiritual threads had already removed the black dot that claimed to be a system from Hui Weilan's sea of consciousness. At the same time, it also brought out Hui Weilan's soul. The moment the soul left her body, Hui Weilan fainted.
Qian Yuan's aura suddenly changed, because the separated soul had nothing in common with Hui Weilan. The word "possession" flashed through his mind, and he even felt a little guilty. His disciple had been possessed, and he, as her master, had not noticed anything. He was still struggling with his feelings for his disciple. This made him feel ashamed, so he quickly and ruthlessly crushed the soul.
"don't want!!!"
The soul carried by the system only had time to utter two words before it dissipated into the world. As soon as the host soul disappeared, the system changed its target and set its sights on Yun Xi. It swooped down and went straight for the woman's brow. As long as it devoured the woman's luck, it could level up and then better hide itself, and would never be easily separated from its host.
Qian Yuan didn't have time to check on Hui Weilan's condition before preparing to stop the strange black dot. However, Yun Xi's delicate hand arrived before his magic could reach it. She gently pinched the sesame-seed-sized black dot, even curiously rubbing it. Her divine sense threads had already pierced into the fragile system, stirring up the code inside into a mess. Only then did she grind it twice with her fingers, completely crushing it. After discarding the residue, she said unhappily:
"How did these insects get into my yard? Looks like I need to get rid of them."
After saying that, he looked at Qian Yuan, who was still in the hand seal posture, and asked with a surprised expression, "Grand Preceptor, what are you doing?"
Qian Yuan awkwardly withdrew his hand and looked at Hui Weilan, who had completely lost consciousness. Now, when he looked at his disciple, he felt no emotion at all; the tremor had completely dissipated.
Yunxi also noticed that Qianyuan's fate had changed again, so she feigned surprise and said:
"What's wrong with the Imperial Preceptor's disciple? Has he gone mad from practicing qi cultivation?"
After Qian Yuan extended a wisp of spiritual energy and let it circulate within Hui Weilan's body, he sighed, waved his sleeve to gather the person on the ground, and took his leave.
After everyone left, Yunxi sat back down on the recliner. Although she had only used a wisp of soul power, it had left her extremely tired. Her physical body really couldn't hold on much longer. Fortunately, her soul had basically recovered after sixteen years of nurturing, so it wouldn't matter if it left her body now.
However, since she made the promise, she should stick to it until she turns eighteen. Hopefully, nothing else will go wrong in the coming year.
Five days later, Qian Yuan came to see Yun Xi again, but this time he was clearly much more relaxed, as if he had been freed from his shackles, and he bowed to Yun Xi to express his gratitude.
"Thank you for your help, Miss. The possessing soul has been destroyed. Although we were unable to save Hui Weilan, the sect has been freed from a hidden danger. Qian Yuan is extremely grateful."
Yunxi smiled and said:
"You're too kind, Grand Preceptor. I merely crushed an insect; I didn't do anything else. It was mostly an accident. However, I appreciate your gratitude. Could you do something more substantial?"
Qian Yuan was surprised by Yun Xi's bluntness and asked:
"What does Miss Yunxi want me to do?"
"Help me take care of my body, so that I can at least hold on until I'm eighteen."
"it is good."
For three consecutive nights, around midnight, Qian Yuan would appear at Ranxi Garden and use the gentlest wood elemental power to help Yunxi soothe her body, thus repaying this favor.
Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief; she was really afraid that her body wouldn't last until she was eighteen.
Since then, the person who comes to the Prime Minister's residence to play chess and enjoy tea with Yunxi has changed to Qianyuan.
As Yunxi's eighteenth birthday approached, the Prime Minister and his wife grew increasingly anxious, their uncontrollable worry making them need to see Yunxi almost every day to put their minds at ease.
On the very day of Yunxi's eighteenth birthday, she changed into her favorite red dress and then instructed her maid to invite the Prime Minister and his wife to Ranxi Garden, as she had something to say to them.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the Prime Minister and his wife arrived. Moreover, not only the two of them, but also the Grand Madam and Yunxi's nominal siblings also came. Everyone forced a smile and congratulated Yunxi on her upcoming eighteenth birthday.
After accepting everyone's congratulatory gifts, Yunxi looked at her mother in this physical body and smiled slightly:
“Mother, I can only stay with you until today. Don’t be sad after I leave. You should know very well that this body has reached its limit.”
