Feng Xi's gaze seemed to pierce through space, landing on Tu Shan Hong Hong's figure, lost in thought:
"I sensed your little struggle and doubts. That's good; struggles lead to stronger emotional fluctuations..."
She gently pressed the ball of emotional energy in her palm onto the trunk of the Bitter Love Tree.
The ancient patterns on the tree trunk seemed to come alive, greedily absorbing this power and emitting an even richer and more irresistible aura of passion, silently spreading in the direction where Tu Shan Hong Hong was.
"Let your aunt... lend you a hand. Let the 'feelings' in your heart, whether it be gratitude, curiosity, admiration... or that newly sprouted 'worry' about the future of Tushan, become stronger and clearer!"
Feng Xi's smile appeared eerie and distorted in the pink aura of emotional power:
"When you are deeply entangled by this 'love,' you will naturally understand who is the one who can guide the future of Tushan..."
"As for Qin Chuan..."
She looked in the direction of Qin Chuan Inn, her eyes cold and possessive:
"Your path will ultimately become the foundation upon which I, Tushan, ascend to the pinnacle!"
Inside the inn, Qin Chuan seemed to sense something, looked up in the direction of the Bitter Love Tree, and frowned slightly.
An extremely subtle yet highly seductive aura, like an invisible spider web, is quietly spreading across Tushan.
Tu Shan Hong Hong, who is in the center of the net, is completely unaware of this and is standing at a crucial crossroads.
Chapter 8: Backlash of Emotional Power, Qin Chuan Reveals the Secret
Tu Shan Honghong sat cross-legged in the quiet room, her reddish-brown eyes closed, but fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Her body trembled slightly, and the demonic power within her surged and crashed wildly through her meridians like a runaway horse.
Furthermore, a scorching and viscous power, like a maggot clinging to her bone, entangled her core demonic power, constantly agitating and amplifying the emotional fluctuations deep within her heart.
The complex emotions he felt towards Qin Chuan, the deep worries about the future of Tu Shan, and the vague doubts he had about Aunt Feng Xi...
All sorts of emotions were amplified and distorted, weaving together into a chaotic and painful web that almost tore her reason apart!
She couldn't help but let out a painful groan, her demonic power overflowing uncontrollably, forming a crimson halo that was sometimes as violent as a raging fire and sometimes as gloomy as ice.
This is a sure sign of losing control of one's emotions!
The emotional power of the Bitter Love Tree, which had been deliberately guided by Feng Xi and mixed with foreign energy, suddenly backfired as if it had found an outlet in the moment when her mind was in turmoil!
"Sister!" Tu Shan Rongrong, who was guarding the door, sensed the violent and chaotic atmosphere inside. Her face turned pale, and she anxiously pounded on the door of the quiet room. "Sister, what's wrong? Open the door, sister!"
"Sister!" Tu Shan Ya Ya also rushed over upon hearing the news. Sensing the terrifying aura, her eyes were filled with horror and anger. "Was it that bastard Qin Chuan who did this?!"
Her first instinct was to rush in.
"No...it wasn't him..."
From the quiet room came Honghong's suppressed, pained, and intermittent voice:
"No...don't come in...it's dangerous..."
Just then, a figure appeared at the door of the quiet room like a ghost; it was Qin Chuan.
He sensed the out-of-control, strangely distorted fluctuations of emotional energy and immediately knew something was wrong.
"Get out of the way!" Qin Chuan's voice was deep and carried an undeniable force.
He ignored Ya Ya's surprised and uncertain gaze and Rong Rong's cries, his right hand forming a sword shape with his fingers together.
A point of starlight, refined to its utmost and imbued with the purifying and suppressing power of the "Nine Heavens Longevity Technique," suddenly shone brightly and directly touched the core runes of the stone door to the quiet room, which was sealed by powerful demonic energy!
The runes on the stone gate flickered violently, groaning under the strain, and instantly dimmed and collapsed!
The sight that came into view made Qin Chuan's eyes narrow.
Tu Shan Honghong curled up on the ground, her crimson aura chaotic and disordered. A pink mark between her eyebrows, resembling a bitter flower, was flashing with an eerie light, and wisps of twisted pink energy were constantly emanating from it, eroding her demonic power and sanity.
Her face was a mixture of pain, confusion, and struggle, and her reddish-brown eyes were sometimes clear and sometimes filled with chaotic lust and violence.
"Backlash of emotional power! And it's corrupted emotional power!"
Qin Chuan instantly identified the core issue.
As he stepped inside, his powerful divine sense, like an invisible giant net, instantly enveloped the entire quiet room, isolating it from the outside world. At the same time, it suppressed Hong Hong's violently overflowing demonic power, preventing it from harming himself and Rong Rong and Ya Ya outside.
"What do you want to do?!"
When Tu Shan Ya Ya saw Qin Chuan barge in, she was both shocked and furious. She tried to rush in but was blocked outside by a gentle yet incredibly strong force.
"If you don't want anything to happen to her, just wait quietly!"
Qin Chuan didn't turn his head, his voice as cold as ice.
Ya Ya was stunned by the chill in his words and froze on the spot.
Qin Chuan squatted down, ignoring the violent and chaotic aura around Hong Hong. He put his right index and middle fingers together, and the starlight at the tip of his finger became even more dazzling. Without hesitation, he pointed at the mark between Hong Hong's eyebrows!
The moment the starlight touched the mark, it was like boiling oil being poured onto snow!
The distorted pink aura emitted a silent shriek, frantically resisting and counterattacking!
A mental shock filled with extreme negative emotions such as bewitching, obsession, possessiveness, and despair crashed into Qin Chuan's sea of consciousness along his finger!
If it were an ordinary cultivator, even a demon king, being impacted by this emotional power containing the essence of the Bitter Love Tree and the malice of the Phoenix, they would either lose their composure or, in severe cases, sink into the sea of desire and become slaves to the power of emotion.
But what kind of existence is Qin Chuan's sea of consciousness?
The general outline of the "Nine Heavens Longevity Technique" is like a stabilizing force, radiating an eternal and undying brilliance, easily cleansing away the filthy emotional energy!
"A trivial skill!"
Qin Chuan snorted coldly, and starlight shone brightly from his fingertips!
The power of the Nine Heavens Longevity Technique is no longer merely suppression, but transforms into countless fine rune threads containing the meaning of refining and purifying. Following the mark, like the most precise probe, it forcibly pierces into the core of Hong Hong's polluted emotional power!
"what--!"
Tu Shan Honghong let out a shrill scream, and her body began to convulse violently.
This process is extremely painful, like forcibly removing the most filthy tumor from the depths of your soul!
Qin Chuan's eyes were cold and unmoved. His divine sense was like the most precise scalpel, carefully peeling away and refining the alien emotional power at the source of the pollution.
At the same time, it guided the gentle life essence of the "Spiritual Source Initiation Technique" like a gentle stream, nourishing and repairing Honghong's injured demonic core and mind.
Time seemed to stand still.
In the quiet room, only Hong Hong's suppressed, painful gasps and the silent, fierce clash between starlight and pink hues remained.
Outside the door, Tu Shan Ya Ya bit her lip tightly, her nails digging deep into her palms.
Although she couldn't understand what was happening inside, she could feel that her sister's pain was lessening, and that the violent and chaotic aura was being forcibly sorted out and soothed by a vast and majestic power.
She looked at Qin Chuan's tall and focused back, her eyes filled with an extremely complicated expression.
Tu Shan Rongrong held Ya Ya's hand tightly, her little face full of tears, her big eyes staring unblinkingly into the doorway, silently praying.
I don't know how much time passed.
The Bitter Love Flower mark between Tu Shan Hong's eyebrows suddenly burst out with a last glimmer of dazzling pink light, then quickly dimmed and shattered like a candle in the wind, and finally disappeared completely!
Honghong spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with a hint of pink, her body went limp and she collapsed, but her aura had completely calmed down; though weak, it was pure and clear.
Qin Chuan withdrew his finger, and the starlight at his fingertip disappeared.
His face was slightly pale. Forcibly stripping away and refining the pollution deeply rooted in Honghong's emotional core had also consumed a lot of his spiritual energy.
Tu Shan Ya Ya and Rong Rong could no longer hold back and rushed in.
With Rongrong's help, Tu Shan Honghong slowly opened her eyes. Although her reddish-brown eyes were tired, they were clear and bright, without any trace of the previous chaos and pain.
Looking at Qin Chuan so close to her, she felt the filth that had been forcibly removed from her body disappear, and the remaining warm and vibrant power filled her with mixed emotions.
Gratitude, lingering fear, shock, and a touch of indescribable excitement intertwined.
"Thank you... thank you, Qin Chuan."
Her voice was a little hoarse, but full of sincerity.
"It was just a small favor."
Qin Chuan responded calmly, but his gaze sharply swept over the spot where the mark had originally been between her brows, then looked towards the direction of the Bitter Love Tree, his tone carrying a cold, discerning quality:
"However, Miss Honghong, do you know the root cause of this backlash from emotional power?"
Tu Shan Honghong's body stiffened. Following Qin Chuan's gaze, the vague doubt in her heart was pierced by a sharp sword and became clear in an instant!
The Bitter Love Tree… the mark… Aunt’s subtle guidance… all the clues are connected!
"Is it... Auntie?"
Her voice trembled slightly, filled with unbelievable pain.
"It's Feng Xi!"
Qin Chuan sneered and uttered a startling statement:
"What she wants to control is never just Tushan, but to use the special nature of you three sisters to rewrite the laws of the Bitter Love Tree to achieve her ulterior motives! This mark of the Bitter Love Tree is the medium through which she tries to control your mind!"
Originally, without any evidence, he had no way to expose Feng Xi's true colors to Tu Shan Hong Hong.
But at this moment, Feng Xi's attack on Tu Shan Hong Hong is the best proof.
"My aunt..."
Tu Shan Honghong was struck dumb, her face turning deathly pale instantly.
Ya Ya and Rong Rong were also stunned; this news was too shocking!
Deep in the Tushan Mountains lies the Qifeng Pavilion.
"puff--!"
The jade cup in front of Feng Xi suddenly shattered, splashing warm tea all over her!
She stood up abruptly, her dignified and elegant demeanor vanished, and her beautiful face was distorted by extreme anger and shock!
Through the emotional connection between the Bitter Love Tree and Honghong, she clearly "saw" everything that happened in the quiet room!
Seeing Qin Chuan forcefully break through her arrangements and refine the source of pollution that she had carefully cultivated and deeply rooted in the core of Hong Hong's passion!
She then heard Qin Chuan's words, which were like a thunderclap, exposing her true nature!
