Chapter 177 – Yang Tiantian’s Twin Body


The clouds in the sky instantly disintegrated, tearing open a massive rift, and the moonlight shone through that rift, illuminating Yang Tiantian.

With the moonlight shining on her, Yang Tiantian shivered, and her blood-red eyes finally regained their clarity.

It seemed as if her consciousness had also returned.

Yang Tiantian looked around, finding herself in an unfamiliar place, but she wasn’t surprised, as if she had grown accustomed to such occurrences. It was clearly not the first time something like this had happened.

However, when she saw Li Changqing in front of her, Yang Tiantian was taken aback.

“Li…Senior Li Changqing!” Yang Tiantian exclaimed in surprise, “What are you doing here?”

Li Changqing didn’t respond, only curiously examining Yang Tiantian, then reached out and pinched her cheek, leaving her bewildered.

“Are you a human or a ghost?” Li Changqing asked with a frown, “Just now you were full of ghostly aura, but now you’ve turned back into a human. It’s really strange.”

“I…” Yang Tiantian was momentarily at a loss for words, but before she could speak, Li Changqing suddenly turned his head to look into the distance, as if he had noticed something. He immediately grabbed Yang Tiantian.

Using the Snow Feather Zen Wind Technique, he disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye.

Because Li Changqing felt someone was coming, to avoid being seen, he took Yang Tiantian and left the place.

Shortly after Li Changqing left, a man with a resolute face appeared. His movements were extremely subtle, appearing almost ghost-like.

He was dressed in a robe, and although his eyes were small, they were spirited and carried a sense of oppression.

There was a unique pattern on his robe.

He looked up at the sky, seeing the rolling clouds still collapsing towards the rift in the middle. The sword aura had not dissipated, still causing the clouds to slowly crumble. It seemed as if a vacuum zone had formed, with wild winds raging. Anyone entering at this time would easily be shattered by the residual sword aura.

“What a formidable sword aura, it must be from a Sword Venerate of the Grandmaster level.”

The man’s face was somewhat solemn. Was there such a powerful sword cultivator in Minghong Prefecture? Could it be the Qianxue Sword Sovereign, Xue Qianbai?

But judging from the residual sword aura, it didn’t seem like it.

As he took a few steps forward, he felt as if he had stepped on something.

Looking down, he saw a tree branch lying quietly on the ground.

The man’s face showed surprise as he picked up the branch, for he could feel the residual sword aura on it.

“Did it really split the clouds with just a tree branch?” The man had initially thought that a master had used a sword to split the sky.

But he didn’t expect that it was done with just a tree branch.

“Who could it be, besides the Qianxue Sword Sovereign, that is such a master of the sword in Minghong Prefecture?” The man pondered for a moment, then looked around but found no traces.

So, he took the branch and quickly disappeared from the spot.

In a deserted courtyard outside the city.

No one came here, it had been abandoned for a long time.

Li Changqing brought Yang Tiantian here, threw her to the ground, and looked at her calmly. But Yang Tiantian could sense a hint of danger from him.

Did Li Changqing intend to kill her?

Yang Tiantian took a deep breath, instantly understanding Li Changqing’s thoughts.

“Senior Changqing, I’m half-human, half-ghost,” Yang Tiantian began to explain, “I only turn into a ghost on nights when the moon is completely obscured. I belong to the Blood Ghosts of the Ghost Clan. The last time I went out with my junior brother, it was daytime, so I didn’t hurt him.”

Upon hearing this, Li Changqing didn’t show whether he believed her or not. His eyes were inscrutable.

“My master told me before that to solve my problem, I could only find Senior Changqing. We went to Changting Town before, but you weren’t there. I didn’t expect the moon to be completely covered by clouds tonight, so I… But luckily, I didn’t hurt my junior brother.”

Yang Tiantian sighed in relief as she finished speaking.

“That’s why you’re still alive,” Li Changqing said indifferently.

Yang Tiantian didn’t say much, she just nodded. If she had attacked Li Hengsheng just now, she would probably be dead by now.

But there was no point in saying more. If Li Changqing truly believed she was a ghost or had something to do with the Longevity Sect, and wanted to kill her, she wouldn’t be able to escape.

Her fate was now in Li Changqing’s hands.

“Half-human, half-ghost,” Li Changqing said lightly, “Your constitution is indeed rare.”

“Yes.”

Yang Tiantian showed a bitter smile, then said, “My constitution is rare because my father is a human and my mother is a ghost. The child of a human and a ghost is normally either human or ghost. It’s very rare to be half-human, half-ghost like me. I actually have a twin soul.”

Yang Tiantian didn’t hide anything and continued, “When the sky is overcast, my other soul will come out, and my main soul will fall asleep. The ghost soul will control my body, but because my main soul has been controlling my body for many years, my ghost soul only has a bloodthirsty instinct.”

“But having two souls makes my cultivation progress very slow, about half the speed of others.”

“And because of this, after I broke through to the Prenatal Realm, my master didn’t send me out to guard because he was worried that I might lose control and cause a disaster.”

“Twin souls?”Upon hearing this, Li Changqing suddenly understood. Yang Tiantian had two souls residing in her body. Could this be considered a form of split personality?

“Did Xu Muhai send you to me for a solution?”

Li Changqing was surprised, “What use would it be to find me?”

“Master said that you might have a way to deal with the Ghost Clan.” Yang Tiantian was also looking at Li Changqing with hopeful eyes, “Senior Changqing, can you help me?”

“Xu Muhai really thinks highly of me.”

Li Changqing felt somewhat helpless. It wasn’t good to be overly relied upon. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation. What could he do?

He initially wanted to refuse, but seeing Yang Tiantian’s pitiful look, coupled with her innocent face staring at him, he felt as if he was looking at a little match girl.

Li Changqing’s heart softened.

Well, since she was his son’s second senior sister, helping her would also be creating good karma for his son.

More importantly, if he didn’t solve this problem, what if one day, due to bad weather, she transformed into another personality and hurt his son without him being prepared?

He couldn’t just kill her now.

“Try this.”

Li Changqing took off the Buddha statue from his neck and handed it to Yang Tiantian, hoping to see if his Buddha statue could suppress the Ghost Clan soul in Yang Tiantian’s body.

Just like how Xu Muhai and others suppressed the Ghost Resentment curse in their bodies.

If it could be suppressed, even temporarily, they could think of other methods later.

“Thank you, senior.”

Yang Tiantian reached out and took the Buddha statue.

However, as soon as the Buddha statue was in her hand, it suddenly burst into a dazzling Buddha light, glaring angrily, and the Buddha light appeared!

Yang Tiantian was immediately blasted away by this Buddha light!

“Puh!”

Yang Tiantian spat out a mouthful of blood, and the Buddha statue in her hand also flew out.

Li Changqing was startled.

He couldn’t let her die.

“How are you?” Li Changqing quickly stepped forward, took out a pill and fed it to Yang Tiantian. He didn’t expect the Buddha statue to have such a strong reaction to Yang Tiantian.

It seemed that it had already sensed the Ghost Clan aura in Yang Tiantian’s body.

At this moment, Yang Tiantian’s face was pale, and she was still in shock. After swallowing the pill, her internal energy finally stabilized.

For a moment there, Yang Tiantian thought she was going to die.

The Buddha light almost tore her apart.

“I’m fine.” After calming her internal injuries, Yang Tiantian slowly spoke.

“It seems this thing is not suitable for you.” Li Changqing picked up the Buddha statue. The Buddha statue had a strong restraining effect on the Ghost Clan and was very powerful, but the soul was in Yang Tiantian’s body. It almost killed Yang Tiantian along with it.

Would it rather kill wrongly than let go?

What happened to saving all beings? You really did save them all.

At this time, Li Changqing suddenly looked at Yang Tiantian with a strange look and said, “I have another method. Do you want to try it? But I can’t guarantee success.”

“Please try your best, Senior Changqing, it’s okay.” Yang Tiantian looked at Li Changqing solemnly, “Over the years, Master has tried various methods and asked many powerful people to look at my condition, but they were all helpless. Senior Changqing, you are my last hope. No matter what the method is, I am willing to try.”

“I’m really afraid that I might accidentally kill you.” Li Changqing sighed softly.

After all, his Buddha statue almost took Yang Tiantian’s life just now.

“No problem.” Yang Tiantian’s expression was a bit gloomy, “Master always told me that there will always be hope and a way in the future, so that my Ghost Clan soul can disappear, and I can persist until today. If I have to live as a half-human, half-ghost monster for the rest of my life, I’d rather die.”

“Even if I die in Senior Changqing’s hands, I accept it.” Yang Tiantian said solemnly.

“I need to prepare. Come out tomorrow night, and I will try to help you get your Ghost Clan soul out.” Li Changqing sighed softly. Whether he could successfully get the Ghost Clan out or accidentally kill the little girl in front of him, Li Changqing really had no confidence.

“Thank you, Senior Changqing.” Yang Tiantian quickly thanked him.

“Go back.”

Li Changqing said lightly.

In a separate courtyard in Path Mark City.

Under the night sky, there were still some lights in this small courtyard.

In the room, a young man was sitting in a chair, playing with a twig in his hand.

His expression was playful. No matter how you looked at it, it was just an ordinary twig.

“You’re saying that the mysterious person used this twig to slash out a sword aura, tearing open the clouds in the sky?” The young man looked at the man next to him.

It was the man in plain clothes who had appeared outside the city earlier.

The man in plain clothes nodded and said, “Ninth Young Master, Path Mark City is not as safe as imagined. I don’t know what happened outside the city, but with such a powerful person here, your safety is a problem. We should leave as soon as possible.”

“It’s not that serious.” The young man obviously didn’t care. He casually threw the twig onto the table next to him and said, “It’s just a twig that split the heavens and the earth. Such cultivation, even without counting our ancestor in the Su Family, there are at least a handful of people who can do it. It’s nothing remarkable.”

“Uncle Chen, you don’t need to make a fuss. With you here, can’t my safety be guaranteed?” The young man said leisurely.

This young man was full of nobility. At a glance, he seemed to be surrounded by a halo, not looking like an ordinary person, and even had a bit of a superior demeanor.

Every word and smile gave people a sense of nobility.

His eyes were filled with pride, completely disregarding the owner of the twig.

Even if they heard that the other party had torn the sky apart with a branch, they didn’t care at all.

“Nine Young Master,” Chen Wangang frowned, “You’re right. In our Su Family, besides the two old ancestors, there are indeed a handful of powerful people who can tear the sky apart with this branch. Even if I can’t defeat such a powerful person, I can still take you and run away.”

“But in our Su Family, besides the two old ancestors, I’m afraid no one can do this and ensure that the branch remains intact… If we really encounter such a master who is harmful to the Nine Young Master, I’m not sure I can escape alive from his hands.”

At these words, the young man’s expression faltered.

He couldn’t help but look back at the branch on the table.

Indeed.

The branch was indeed intact, and at the front end of the branch, there was a piece of green bud, which was still full of vitality, without any sense of tearing.

If Chen Wangang hadn’t mentioned it, he really wouldn’t have noticed.

To have such terrifying control over one’s own power, not everyone could achieve this.

“We’ll leave tomorrow afternoon,” the young man shook his head, “You don’t need to be too sensitive about this. Even if this is Donghuangyu, there won’t be many people who know I’m from the Su Family and dare to touch me.”

“Although the Su Family has a grudge against Qianxue Sword Sovereign, he wouldn’t stoop to bully a junior from my family, would he?” The young man said with a smile.

“Anyway, the safety of the Nine Young Master is the most important thing,” Chen Wangang said solemnly, “And if your Fourth Grandfather knew I brought you to Path Mark City, I’m afraid I’d be in trouble.”

“Haha, Fourth Grandfather won’t know, don’t worry,” the young man quickly reassured him.

The night passed.

In the morning, when Li Hengsheng woke up, Min Min had already prepared breakfast.

Xu Kui had also gotten up early.

“Where’s Second Senior Sister?” Sitting at the dining table, Li Hengsheng asked curiously, “Uncle Xu, why hasn’t Second Senior Sister gotten up yet?”

“Miss Yang said she was feeling a bit unwell, I’ve already brought her breakfast to her room,” Min Min came over and said at this time.

“Second Senior Sister is unwell? What’s wrong with her?” Li Hengsheng was surprised. Yang Tiantian was in the Prenatal Realm, could she still get sick?

“Oh, it must be that time of the month,” Min Min gave Li Hengsheng a look.

“Uh.” Li Hengsheng understood somewhat, so he didn’t ask any more questions. However, he was wondering, having reached the Prenatal Realm, with a completely transformed body and perfect control over oneself, would that still happen?

After having breakfast with Xu Kui.

“Uncle Xu, let’s go out for a bit,” Li Hengsheng said to Xu Kui.

“Young Master, where are you going?”

“I’m going to the Changqing Trading Company. We have to wait for a couple of days anyway. I saw yesterday that the Changqing Trading Company has a consignment area. Let’s go there and see if there are any good things.”

Li Hengsheng said with some eagerness.

Hearing this, Xu Kui smiled lightly. He said that, but what good things could there be in such a place?

It was just that Li Hengsheng, being young, couldn’t stay at home on his first visit to Path Mark City and wanted to go out for a walk.

“Alright, I’ll accompany you,” Xu Kui also tidied up a bit and then followed.

“Senior Sister, you rest well, we’ll be back soon,” Li Hengsheng shouted into Yang Tiantian’s room.

“Okay,” Yang Tiantian said weakly, her injuries from last night were indeed not light.

With that, the three of them headed straight for the Changqing Trading Company.

Today’s Changqing Trading Company was no different from yesterday’s, still bustling with people. Even though it wasn’t their first time seeing it, they still found it shocking.

“Young Master Li, would you like to go to the consignment area?” Min Min asked, “We actually have quite a few good things in our consignment area. Because our Changqing Trading Company has a large customer flow, even other sects or individual cultivators will consign some treasures to us. If you’re interested, I can take you for a good look.”

“Okay,” Li Hengsheng nodded.

The three of them went straight to the third floor.

The consignment area was also quite crowded. The consignment area had a very large circular counter, which almost encircled the entire third floor. All sorts of things were displayed in the counter.

Almost anything strange and unusual could be found.

Li Hengsheng felt like he had broadened his horizons. Not to mention Li Hengsheng, some of the things even made Xu Kui, who was standing by, stare in surprise.

There were spirit beast furs for sale, which could be used to make furniture or clothes.

There were beast bones for sale, some of which could even be used to make weapons.

There were all sorts of strange pills for sale.

For example, one that could temporarily change your voice to a woman’s.

There was one that could make your head twist 180 degrees without dying.

There was one that could make women grow a palm-wide chest hair.

The most outrageous one was a pill that could make you pee endlessly.

Li Hengsheng didn’t know what the purpose of buying these things was.

Some people die, but they are not completely dead…
