Don't be afraid, fairy, I'm blind

Chapter 244: The Power of Yousu's Dependents (5.6k Information Chapter)
"I can still vividly remember the swordplay that night by Brother You. I only remember that I was stunned by your beauty when I first saw you."

The two chatted while eating, and talked about the scene where You Su defeated Huo Yuandi that night.

"You have realized the meaning of sword at the age of 18. Your talent in swordsmanship is rare in the world. No matter how powerful the Xuanxiao Sect is, it is not specialized in swordsmanship after all. Perhaps you are more suitable to go to a sect that is dedicated to studying swordsmanship than the Xuanxiao Sect. It may not be as famous as the Xuanxiao Sect, but it will definitely make your talent shine."

He Kongyue's tone was sincere, as if he was really thinking about You Su.

"Oh? What suggestions do you have, Brother He?"

"For example, the sect where Chunchan belongs, Xiaochan Sword Sect. Ye Erong will definitely not let it go after knowing Chunchan's deeds. Once Chunchan's deeds are exposed, Chanjian Master will definitely not want such a bad disciple. Brother You will just take Chunchan's place and become the new successor of Chunchan Sword."

He Kongyue looked at You Su's face with bright features, thinking that this guy's face was more likely to make people aroused than that spring cicada...

"The Xiaochan Sword Sect can't even enter the Divine Mountain, so what's the point of going there?" You Su didn't take He Kongyue's suggestion seriously. "It's true that the Xuanxiao Sect is not good at swordsmanship, but my Lotus Peak is. Before I was a disciple of the Xuanxiao Sect, I was a disciple of the Lotus Peak."

He Kongyue was a little anxious: "It's not that he can't come in, but he doesn't want to come. Venerable Chanjian doesn't covet the resources of the sacred mountain. Once he goes to the sacred mountain, he has to complete various indicators of accepting disciples, share the tasks issued by the Immortal Ancestor Temple, and protect the sacred mountain, etc. Venerable Chanjian is devoted to sword enlightenment, how could he be willing to care about these complicated matters."

You Su nodded in approval upon hearing this: "Venerable Chanjian is a true sword immortal. You Su admires him."

"That's it, don't worry, brother You. You have the merit of reporting Chun Chan and you have outstanding achievements in battle. I will write a letter of introduction for you. I guarantee that Master Chanjian will accept you as his disciple."

"If I remember correctly, Chanjian Zun is a woman, right?"

"Yeah, does Brother You have to choose a man?"

"No and no."

You Su quickly refused. Who would give up the gentle female master and choose a grown man as their master?

"May I ask, Brother He, who is more powerful, Venerable Chan Sword or Venerable Lian Sword?"

"Forehead……"

He Kongyue hesitated for a moment, and then said, "It has been several decades since the last time the two of them competed. Previously, Venerable Lian Jian was indeed slightly better, but in recent years, I heard that Venerable Chan Jian has made breakthroughs one after another, while Venerable Lian Jian has no news at all. It is hard to say who will win or lose between the two female swordsmen now..."

"That's because my master is low-key. The Lotus Sword Master must be stronger."

You Su smiled confidently and asked again:

"Then I would like to ask again, who is more beautiful, the Lotus Sword Master or the Chan Sword Master?"

He Kongyue hesitated for even longer before sighing:

"I have had the honor of seeing both of them in person. In terms of appearance alone, Venerable Lian Jian is indeed more beautiful. But this does not mean that Venerable Chan Jian is not beautiful. Both of them are extremely beautiful in the world, but Venerable Lian Jian is more impressive..."

"In terms of strength, appearance and status, Venerable Chan Sword is not as good as Venerable Lian Sword. Why should I switch to another sect?" You Su asked with a smile.

He Kongyue heard this and sighed, saying helplessly:
"You are so superficial that you care about other people's appearance. Little do you know that Chanjian Master has four faces, corresponding to spring, summer, autumn and winter. His personality and habits will change accordingly, so he created the Four Seasons Chanjian. You worship one master, which is equivalent to worshipping four. Isn't this a good deal?"

You Su raised his eyebrows, feeling that what Brother He said was not like persuading him to become a disciple, but rather like a matchmaker introducing a wife to him...

"Okay, I know Brother He wants to be good to me, but you know very little about my master. I am living very well in Lotus Peak, and I will never think of changing my master. There is no need to mention this matter again."

You Su's tone was relaxed, but it also revealed a determination that could not be questioned.

He Kongyue could only shake his head and give up.

"help me……"

Suddenly, an extremely faint voice came to You Su's ears. He stopped eating the skewers, frowned, and began to emit spiritual awareness.

"help me……"

The voice sounded again, and this time, it was not only You Su who frowned, but also He Kongyue.

"Who?!"

He Kongyue asked loudly, and at the same time nervously spread out his spiritual sense to explore, but he did not find anything suspicious in his sea of ​​consciousness.

He felt something was wrong, so he immediately took out the night pearl and observed his surroundings with his naked eyes, but was startled by the thing at the end of his sight.

You Su sensed his gaze and looked in that direction, and found that he could see it with his naked eyes!
It was a corpse that was unrecognizable as a human. The body had been rotten and the mutilated skin was a sickly grayish-white color, as if it would collapse at any time, which was creepy.

"Is this... evil?"

It cannot be scanned by spiritual consciousness, but can be seen with the naked eye. For You Su, this situation has only been seen on evil spirits!

"Can you see him?"

He Kongyue turned around in disbelief and met You Su's eyes.

Of course he knew about the Exorcism Bureau's speculation that You Su could see all evil spirits, but in order to disguise himself, he had to pretend to ask.

"I'll explain it to Brother He next time. Let's go and take a look first!"

He Kongyue was slightly stunned by You Su's attitude that he had no intention of deceiving, but he quickly recovered and rushed to the corpse with You Su.

"help me……"

The mummy stretched out his hand stiffly and repeated the words for help in a dull voice. His voice was low and hoarse, filled with endless pain and regret.

"This person... seems to be Huo Yuandi!"

He Kongyue carefully looked at the facial contours of the mummy. Although there was no flesh and blood, the skin on the right side of the face was still intact. The iconic long scar was still fresh in He Kongyue's memory.

"Huo Yuandi?!"

You Su also exclaimed in surprise. He did not open his eyes during the decisive battle with Huo Yuandi, so he had no impression of his appearance. But judging from his tall and big frame, it seemed that it might really be the mad swordsman.

When the mummy heard the name, it stretched out its hand again, as if acknowledging its identity.

"We went down the mountain and entered the valley yesterday, and arrived here. That night, the female cultivator named Fu kicked him down the mountain. He is a cultivator in the Feather Transformation Realm, and there is a high probability that he would not die from the fall. It is also possible that he crawled into the valley... This man is really Huo Yuandi!" He Kongyue gave his own judgment.

"But how did he become like this?"

"His current state is almost the same as that of a demon. I guess he must have encountered some terrible demon and was forced to become the flesh-and-blood servant of that evil spirit to restore its strength." He Kongyue frowned deeply.

You Su was not unfamiliar with the term "flesh dependents".

Evil spirits are indescribable evil things. Each evil spirit has its own special power. It is impossible to use the level of Lingtai Condensed Water to classify their strength, because the power contained in each evil spirit is unknown. It is possible that the same type of evil spirits can have a huge difference in strength.

But in addition to using the three major factions of flesh and blood, five elements, and dreams to classify evil spirits, there is another classification method - that is to see whether the evil spirit is powerful enough to cultivate its own followers.

This kind of evil spirit is collectively called evil spirit.

No matter how powerful a non-evil spirit is, it is still an individual. Because it can turn other creatures into its followers, the harm caused by evil spirits is far more widespread than that of non-evil spirits.

The three evil gods are the highest-level existences among evil spirits, and are a separate category; below them are evil spirits that can also cultivate followers, and after that are ordinary evil spirits.

Zang Tu, Zang Shui, and the Dream-Eating Ghost are all evil spirits, and of course, the True Lord in You Su is also one of them.

The followers will absolutely obey the master they believe in and will never harbor any intention to murder the master. The reward is that they can become of the same origin as the master and obtain the power bestowed by the master.

Therefore, followers can be divided into two types. One is the spiritual followers who are used to act on behalf of the evil spirits. They often obtain the instructions and power of the evil spirits. The other is the flesh followers who are eaten by the evil spirits to restore their strength. Their own power becomes the same as that of the evil spirits and feeds back to the evil spirits.

This Huo Yuandi is a flesh follower that has been completely absorbed.

"There is actually an evil spirit buried in Lingxu Mountain Range."

"Heaven will be in chaos..."

He Kongyue sighed softly, then looked at Huo Yuandi who had become a mummy:

"If we want to find out the truth first, we must find a way to save him. Brother You, I didn't expect that we would have the opportunity to make contributions to the Pure World Sect on our first trip!"

"But...how to do it?"

Saving people is easy, but saving an evil spirit like You Su is also confusing.

"help me……"

Huo Yuandi's voice became even weaker, and his life seemed to have come to an end.

"Let me ask Lady Gray-kun, maybe she has a way."

As He Kongyue spoke, he took out the white Xuanji Order.

Speaking of which, You Su has never used this communication token that allows two-way communication since he got it.

"Brother You, keep an eye on him."

After giving the instructions, He Kongyue slowly closed his eyes and secretly channeled the Xuan Qi into the Xuan Ji Order. Then he seemed to have entered a state of concentration during meditation, motionless, with steady breathing.

This state lasted for a while, He Kongyue opened his eyes, with a puzzled expression, and said:

"Brother You, Lord Gray said he has something to tell you."

"Me?" He Kongyue just nodded. "The Xuanji Order issued by the Pure World Sect has already been connected to the Xuanji Order of the Four Gods. You can directly input the Xuanqi and sink your spiritual consciousness into the order, and you will receive the news from Lord Hui."

You Su did as he was told and slowly closed his eyes.

Gradually, You Su felt as if he was in a bright white space, where a phantom whose shape could not be seen clearly was waiting for him.

"He Kongyue has already told me the situation."

The shadow floated, and it was indeed Mr. Hui's clear voice.

"What do you need me to do?"

You Su is not a fool. Hui Jun wants to talk to him alone. There must be something that is not suitable to be told to He Kongyue who does not know the true face of the Pure World Sect.

"Do you still remember the question you asked me that day?"

"Why did my junior sister only listen to me that one time?"

"Yes, now that you have joined the Pure Land Church, I can answer you. This will be the first step for you to understand the power of God."

"Go ahead." You Su wasn't polite.

You Su noticed that the shadow moved, as if it was staring at him.

Forced by the situation, You Su had no choice but to give in and changed his words:

"please say."

Gray was satisfied:

"Because God is the most special being, all evil followers are essentially polluted, only God is different. Being a follower of God is a gift! Although your junior sister is your follower, she is not evil in nature, but a monster, so you can't command her normally. The reason you were able to command her that day was because the power of Tai Sui in her body erupted, allowing the evil in her to briefly prevail."

"Does this mean that Allah can only command those of His followers who are evil, but cannot do anything to those who are not evil?"

"Do you really want her to obey you in everything?"

"Of course I don't want to. Junior Sister is an independent individual." You Su had no such intention in his heart, and said, "I'm just curious, because if that's the case, I don't see the point of becoming a follower of God as a gift."

"Control is the most despicable means. The true supreme God disdains to control any believer. He only needs faith. Your sister can be your spiritual follower or your physical follower. You are a demon and a human, but practicing together will achieve twice the result with half the effort because your power has always been of the same origin and transcends race. When you truly master the power of God in the future, you can even share your power with her from a distance of thousands of miles, and vice versa. You will gradually learn this as you become stronger."

Huijun had tried to keep her words short, and Yousu sensed her urgency, so he asked:
"So, you don't want me to make Huo Yuandi my follower as well?"

"Only in this way can you save his life. Allah is the source of evil, and there is no evil higher than Him. If you want, you can even deprive the three evil gods of their followers. You must know that in the land of the Five Continents, there are many monks who secretly offer their souls to the three evil gods..."

You Su had no idea about forming a large army of followers for the time being, and asked hesitantly:

"But how can I make him my dependent?"

I can't let him refine my essence...

"The power of God has already merged with you. You only need to feed him your blood and he will naturally become your follower. Of course, this is the lowest level and the cheapest way to become your follower. You can also feed him your flesh. The closer the flesh is to the heart, the more precious it is, and the higher the degree of follower will be. However, all of the above will turn your follower into an evil spirit. As for the highest level of follower, it is to share your source energy. In this way, the follower will not become an evil spirit, but an independent existence second only to God."

Gray paused and gave an easy-to-understand explanation:
“You can understand that the former are all God’s subjects, while the latter are God’s trusted companions.”

You Su secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The degree of becoming a dependent determines the degree of connection between the dependent and the master. He had always been worried that becoming his dependent would harm his junior sister and Xueruo, but from Hui Jun's explanation, at least there would be no negative effect on them.

"A few drops of blood can bring him back to life?"

"Don't underestimate the power of God. You are too far away from the real God right now, so you can't experience it. You don't even need a few drops, one drop is enough. But you must make him believe in you! Whether it's coercion or inducement, you have to make him believe that you are his only master, otherwise you won't be able to change the position of the evil spirit in his heart."

You Su was stunned on the spot, and suddenly he thought of a unique fighting method that only he could do...

Although he was good at fighting, he had never done anything to intimidate anyone.

"If you understand, get out now. He's almost dead."

"Wait! Brother He...what does he know about the Pure World Sect?"

Gray was stunned for a moment before he said:
"The more he knows, the faster he will die. He is still a long way from truly getting in touch with the core of the Pure World Religion."

"Then... can you find an excuse to kick him out? The price is that I will stay in the Pure World Sect forever."

Gray Jun's shadow froze in place: "Why do you want to kick him?"

"Brother He is just a passionate man who wants to eliminate evil and save the world. The Pure World Religion may not be suitable for him."

Of course, You Su would not be so stupid as to believe everything Hui Jun told him. He had doubts in his heart as to whether the Pure World Sect was as great as Hui Jun said.

You Su found it hard to believe that a church founded on an uncertain ambition had no other purpose.

"Let's talk about this later. Let's deal with the current situation first." Gray Jun said casually.

After saying that, the shadow disappeared like mist. It must be that Mr. Hui took the initiative to cut off the connection.

You Su quickly withdrew his spiritual consciousness, and He Kongyue was looking at him with concern.

"Can Lord Gray teach you the method?"

You Su nodded, took out a low-grade Qi-boosting pill from his Qiankun bag, and said:

"This pill is enough."

He Kongyue was obviously a little bit unbelievable and said:
"If it's a Qi-boosting pill, I have a top-grade one here. Use mine."

You Su shook his head, "Brother He, you don't know that Hui Jun specifically told me to use only low-grade ones. It should be that there are some medicinal ingredients in the low-grade that are not found in the high-grade ones, but they can have a special effect on evil spirits. An elephant can easily crush a person to death, but it will also be afraid of an ant that can be easily crushed to death by a person. This low-grade elixir is probably the same reason."

You Su had said this, and even though He Kongyue had doubts in his heart, he had no choice but to believe You Su and said thankfully:
"Fortunately, Brother You still has some low-grade elixirs on hand. No wonder Lord Hui only told you and not me. It seems that I have to keep some low-grade elixirs on hand in the future."

You Su also calculated that this noble young man would not store such inferior elixirs, so he dared to make up the number.

He quietly pierced his index finger with Xuan Qi, then held the blood-stained Qi-replenishing pill in his hand and hung it above Huo Yuandi's face.

"Do you remember who I am?"

Huo Yuandi's eyeballs were about to fall out. He nodded with all his strength. There was no longer any hatred in his eyes, but only pleading.

"I can save you, but you have to listen to me! You have to answer whatever I ask!"

You Su tried hard to intimidate the half-dead corpse.

Suddenly, an arc of light flashed, and half of Huo Yuandi's arm was chopped off. The wound formed a smooth cross-section, and the little blood left in Huo Yuandi's body seeped out.

The person who hurt him was He Kongyue who suddenly used magic.

"I'm asking you a question! Do you hear me? He is your savior! He can save your life, but he can also take your life again at any time!"

He Kongyue yelled a little hysterically, and You Sudu seemed to be meeting this person for the first time.

Brother He doesn't do bullying like this often, does he?

Ignoring the severe pain in his left hand, Huo Yuandi quickly moved twice in response.

Seeing that Brother He was so ruthless, You Su could not afford to lose momentum, so he threw the pill on the ground:
"If you agree, just crawl over and eat it like a dog wagging its tail for mercy."

He Kongyue raised his eyebrows and glanced at You Su, as if he was also meeting this person for the first time.

You Su wouldn't often do such things as making others act like dogs, would he?

Huo Yuandi certainly did not hesitate. He tried his best to squeeze out all his strength. His face skin was rubbed off on the ground, revealing half of his bloody bones. But he still couldn't crawl to the side of the pill because he was completely exhausted. He could only stretch out his tongue as long as he could and rely on his strong desire to survive to reach the pill.

But this pill was just like the immortal sword he had always wanted, and he could never get it. Just like the great man he had hoped to become since he was the most humble, when he thought he could call the wind and rain, he was still trampled under the feet of a person he looked down upon, just like an ant.

I am unwilling...

Can someone help me...

I recognize you as my father, my grandfather, and my ancestor...

Just when he was in despair, You Su kicked the Qi-boosting pill with his foot and sent it mixed with mud and sand into Huo Yuandi's mouth.

Huo Yuandi's eyes widened, and the look he showed when he looked at You Su changed again. There was neither resentment nor pleading, but an almost morbid gratitude, as if he was looking at a god who had saved him.

He hardly chewed it, and swallowed the pill whole with the little strength he had left.

After a moment, Huo Yuandi's body began to move. Flesh and blood grew out of thin air, propping up the dry skin.

You Su looked through his sea of ​​consciousness and found that in the shadow of the golden hydra, under the black line of the followers, there was also the disgusting face of Huo Yuandi.

At this moment, Huo Yuandi suddenly turned over and shouted in horror:

"Save me! Venerable Chengying is not a human... She wants to eat us!!"
