Chapter 964: Chapter 964: Sorting Out the ridians
What is this? Ye Shikai was suddenly bewildered. When did he ever say he was going to give up? What exactly did Chen Yaogzu say just now to cause such a drastic change in Chen Yuxin’s mood? Being held like this, Ye Shikai felt quite embarrassed. After all, this was right at the doorstep of the Chen family. If Chen Yaogzu were to see this, it wouldn’t be good.
“Xin, please let go of first.” Ye Shikai tried to soothe Chen Yuxin’s emotions, but it wasn’t very effective. This girl had been like this since she was a child; if she cried, for whatever reason, it would take at least an hour or two to comfort her.
“Let’s talk it out, alright? This is… making it really awkward for .” Ye Shikai was almost driven to tears himself by Chen Yuxin’s antics. Setting the ingredients aside, it seed he couldn’t cook until he comforted her properly.
“Xin, what’s really wrong? Did Grandpa say sothing to you?” Ye Shikai gently rubbed her back. It must have been sothing Chen Yaogzu said. Otherwise, she was fine just a mont ago. From what was said earlier, he could infer so things.
Don’t abandon.
Perhaps Chen Yaogzu learned about their situation and advised her to let go. Ye Shikai could only speculate so much. An elderly cultivator, long withdrawn from worldly affairs, was now ddling in their matters, leaving Ye Shikai feeling quite pressured.
Considering how much this elder cared for his granddaughter, if he knew Ye Shikai had done such a terrible thing, one slap would probably be enough to end him…
“Kai, you’ll never leave , right?” Chen Yuxin looked up, tears in her eyes, appearing frail, which made Ye Shikai’s heart soften instantly.
“Of course, I won’t leave you.” Ye Shikai held her in his arms, whispering softly in her ear. After more than half an hour, he finally managed to “comfort” Chen Yuxin.
“Xin, don’t overthink it. I won’t ever ignore you,” Ye Shikai reassured her thousands of tis before finally calming her down. Just as he prepared to stand up and cook, Chen Yuxin pulled on his arm.
“Promise .”
“Alright, alright, I swear. Is that enough?” Ye Shikai didn’t expect there to still be a childish side in Chen Yuxin’s heart. He raised four fingers to the sky, making a solemn vow. After the whole “ritual,” Chen Yuxin finally nodded.
“Okay, now sit here for a while. I’ll go cook.” Ye Shikai finally exhaled a breath of relief. Thankfully, it only delayed him by half an hour. As he chopped vegetables, he couldn’t help but think about what happened earlier. Why exactly was Chen Yuxin crying? But he dared not provoke her now. If she started crying again, there’d be no solution.
“Xin, co try it.” Ye Shikai handed a plate of stir-fried shredded potatoes over, turning back to see her mood had recovered.
“Hmm.” Chen Yuxin extended her delicate hand, using chopsticks to pick up the shredded potatoes and placing them in her mouth. Ye Shikai watched her face intently, looking expectant.
“Hmm, it’s really good.” A smile finally appeared on Chen Yuxin’s face again.
“That’s wonderful.” Ye Shikai let out a long sigh of relief. He’d finally consoled her, and ti was running short. He quickly moved on to the next dish. He couldn’t keep the elders inside waiting too long.
Two hours later.
“Senior, co and have a taste.” Ye Shikai brought all the dishes inside and saw the grandfather and granddaughter having a conversation.
“Xin, you should co too.”
Chen Yuxin supported Chen Yaogzu’s arm, and after the three of them sat down, Ye Shikai diligently helped Chen Yaogzu set the tableware.
“Ye, while you’re here, let check your condition,” Chen Yaogzu put down his chopsticks and suddenly said.
“What?” Ye Shikai instinctively glanced at Chen Yuxin. It had only been two hours, but he could feel so changes. Chen Yuxin looked much healthier, and the Inner Strength in her body flowed more smoothly. He could even faintly sense that the shackles within her were being impacted by a surge of Inner Strength and were starting to loosen. If this trend continued, her cultivation level might increase again in a while.
Indeed, having soone to help truly made cultivation much easier. Back then, Ye Shikai didn’t know how he survived. The pain of cultivation was not just physical.
“How can I trouble you, Senior? You’ve secluded yourself. How dare I impose on more favours?” Ye Shikai said, making a lot of polite talk.
“As a man, one must venture into the world. Even though you have good talent and practice diligently, you lack so support.”
“Kai, Grandpa doesn’t help just anyone. You shouldn’t refuse his kindness.” At this mont, Chen Yuxin also persuaded him.
“Alright. In that case, if I refused, I’d be ungrateful.” Ye Shikai said with an awkward smile. If Chen Yaogzu could help him smooth his ridians, that would be great.
“Senior, Xin, let’s eat. Otherwise, the dishes will get cold.” Ye Shikai smiled and pointed to the delicious food on the table, also distracting them.
“Yes, Xinxin, eat quickly too.”
…………………
Chen Yaogzu stretched out his palm, and a beam of light shot from its center, hitting Ye Shikai’s forehead. A powerful force surged into his body, making Ye Shikai feel as if he was enveloped by energy.
“Ye, your eight extraordinary ridians are astounding. You are a promising cultivator, but the energy in your body is rather chaotic. You have multiple energies within you.” Chen Yaogzu’s brow furrowed slightly. Ye Shikai was the Main God, and the Main God was a Western title, including Blade Soul and the Netherworld Blade, these were Western energies. Yet the cultivation of the Emperor Xuan Scripture was a Huaxia technique. Since ancient tis, Eastern and Western cultivators have competed endlessly. Ye Shikai’s “Chinese Body Western Use” is indeed rare. East and West both have their strengths. Eastern cultivation, represented by Huaxia, emphasizes techniques and inner strength, quite similar to traditional Chinese dicine. In contrast, Western cultivation focuses on energy accumulation. In simple terms, the larger one’s energy, the higher their combat power. Energy is crucial in actual combat, so Western cultivators are considered “the combat-effective.”
However, although Ye Shikai combines the strengths of both Eastern and Western cultivation, if not practiced correctly, he won’t be able to exert his full strength and might even harm his ridians.
“There’s another powerful force within your body.” Chen Yaogzu suddenly opened his eyes, looking at Ye Shikai with profound intent.
Could it be that Chen Yaogzu detected the existence of a second personality?
And the Blade Soul. It’s said that Ye Shikai also has the consciousness of the Blade Soul in his mind. Could it be that this too has been discovered by Chen Yaogzu?
“Ye, I didn’t expect your body to have so many secrets. I underestimated you.”
