The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 584 Illness (Part 2)

"He's gone." The boy on the bed glanced at her, his large eyes snapping shut, and then turned to the girl beside him.

"...Did I say something wrong?" Jiang Hui's expression suddenly became somewhat subtle.

“No, you’re right,” Huan Xian said softly.

After Zhou Xiuwen left, only Jiang Hui and Huan Xian remained in the ward.

Jiang Hui looked around and finally settled on a long, hidden crack in the corner of the wall not far away: "Your strength has increased again."

Before entering, she felt the room was strangely empty, but once she stepped inside, she realized why—

The large ward could no longer accommodate anything else besides these.

Aside from the specially made bed and the person on it, every moment that anything else exists here is a huge "test" for it, because it is filled with an extremely strong and terrifying spiritual force that will tear all "intruders" in the vicinity to shreds.

Only then did Jiang Hui notice that the medical devices surrounding the other party were all covered with something like barriers or shields. Even so, their outer layers were riddled with cracks, and one of the thinner-looking devices had a crack that was widening, causing the monitoring curves on the screen to fluctuate wildly. It seemed that these devices wouldn't last much longer.

Thus, we can know the whereabouts of the other things in the room. It seems that their original appearance was not like this; it was only Huan Xian who made it into this empty space.

"But why? You always seem so calm... Everyone's afraid of me." The boy's calm face looked blank and somewhat confused.

Jiang Hui could tell that the other person was genuinely confused and did not respond. She went straight to the other side of the lab table, got some water, and then returned to Huan Xian's side.

"Here you go." The girl handed the cup in her hand to the other person.

Huan Xian was stunned for a moment before slowly reaching out to take it. But the water cup, which had been steadily in Jiang Hui's hand, began to change as soon as it was placed in his. The cup, which was so hard that it could even be used to simulate a mecha, instantly developed cracks, and a small patch of water inside trembled as if it was about to overflow.

Before the boy could put it down, Jiang Hui reached out and supported the bottom of the cup. His fingertips lightly touched his wrist, and the water, which seemed about to collapse at any moment, instantly calmed down—both the cup and the water inside.

“So why should I be afraid?” Jiang Hui said firmly again.

She could clearly sense the other party's restless spiritual power, which was more violent and aggressive than she had ever seen before—indiscriminately attacking all forms of energy.

Even Zhou Xiuwen, whose mental strength had steadily approached S-level and was just one step away from fully awakening and crossing the S-level barrier, found it somewhat difficult to defend himself. Even though the other party might have been hiding his abilities well for fear of harming his friends, Huan Xian was still able to sense the stiffness in the other party's limbs and the instinctive wariness that arose within him.

Look, he's such a terrifying monster—

When he loses control and can't rein in his power, he might even uncontrollably harm his friends. How can he not be afraid?
“You can control yourself,” Jiang Hui said before the other person could speak.

She didn't say "I believe" or "I think," but used such a confident statement because, in her view, Huan Xian had always been very well controlled and had never hurt anyone, especially his friends. "That's because it's you—" Huan Xian pursed his lips. He wasn't fooled by Jiang Hui's words; he could tell that his "harmlessness" might only apply to Jiang Hui.

Jiang Hui is different; she was different from the very first time he met her. She is the only exception Huan Xian has encountered here so far; everyone else, even those with whom he has such a tacit understanding, is different.

“That’s because you’re too attached to appearances,” Jiang Hui said. “You once said that my magnetic field is unusual and that you feel an unusual quiet around me, but do you know what? I can completely sense the state of your spiritual power, every single time.”

Does a kind of one-way, shieldable sensory communication really exist in this world? Jiang Hui wondered later.

No, that's impossible. Every interaction in this world leaves a trace, some more, some less. If there's blocking, there can be no communication; if there's communication, there can be no blocking…

One of them must have deceived Huan Xian's senses. If it wasn't her... then it could only be Huan Xian himself. He believed that his mental energy calmed down when it approached Jiang Hui because of the special magnetic field around her, but was it possible that he automatically lowered his energy frequency to connect with her magnetic field?

Her mental energy field might indeed be different, making it easier for her to calmly tolerate the other person's violent mental energy than others. However, this is also a two-way street—it would be absolutely impossible to do without Huan Xian's permission.

"You always separate yourself first, and the one who truly feels unable to accept it is always yourself."

He fears being wantonly hurt by the outside world, fears not being accepted, and even more fears that he will lose control of his talent and harm those around him—unaware that he is no different from any other human being in this world. As long as he stops caring, these so-called "how others see him" will disappear, or rather, become insignificant.

"So don't be afraid, don't think you're scary. No matter how powerful an individual is, they can't withstand everything in this world. Everything that exists has its reason. Accept your own power, truly accept yourself, and you'll find that the world is far more inclusive than you imagined."

"Hmm?" Facing the other person's stunned gaze, Jiang Hui withdrew her hand, while the water glass in the other person's hand remained motionless, and the liquid inside was completely still.

Things have calmed down.

So it's true—the one who has always been afraid of this force is none other than himself.

After saying that, Jiang Hui didn't say anything more. She simply poured herself some water and gulped it down, as she was indeed quite thirsty.

One sat, the other half-reclined, both holding water glasses... After a long while, a very soft sigh came from the room.

"You're always so insightful."

"So you're going to pay me a consultation fee?" Jiang Hui joked. Not only Huan Xian, but also these friends who were all good in every way but would occasionally get stuck on their own little things, Jiang Hui felt that her analytical skills had improved.

These interstellar teenagers are quite capable, generally more so than the children on Earth, but they are all prone to stubbornness. This won't do.

"No." Because he doesn't understand yet, please teach him more. Huan Xian really, really wants to see the real world that exists in one person's eyes.
