Chapter 180 180 Spirit Abyss Vine
Ye Pianran never expected that she would comprehend the first level of the "Tai Su Ling Zhen" mental technique at this time. However, with the comprehension of this level, she can now more clearly feel the circulation and changes of spiritual energy between heaven and earth, which cycle repeatedly and endlessly.
In these repeated summarizations and exhalations, she felt as if she had become a seed, deeply rooted in the soil, greedily and eagerly absorbing the nutrients from the soil, finally sprouting a tender shoot, breaking through the hard soil at the top, stretching out ice-blue branches and leaves, and being able to receive the radiance of the sun and moon!
Huh? Ice blue—
Ye Pianran was startled and abruptly awoke from her state of enlightenment. She opened her eyes and found that she had left that strange illusion and returned to the space. She quickly looked down to check her hands. Fortunately, her hands were still the same hands, and her palms were intact. The small blue vines that should have been growing in the soil had broken away from their growth and were wrapped around her wrists, looking like a crystal-clear blue jade bracelet.
Noticing her gaze, the tip of the vine tilted up and nodded slightly at her, as if it were nodding in acknowledgment.
Ye Pianran gasped and blurted out, "What kind of strange plant is this?"
"What?" Chunyu Yang had been standing behind her the whole time. He only saw her reach out and touch the grass before asking this question. He had no idea that she had just been pulled into an illusion and had watched the world change for a long time.
Ye Pianran did not intend to hide anything from Chunyu Yang. She raised her hand to show him the grass vine on her wrist, and then told him everything that had happened in the illusion.
"You've grasped the first level of the mental cultivation technique?" Chunyu Yang was slightly surprised. He stared intently at the vines, pondered for a moment, and said, "In that case, the content of that illusion seems to have been tailor-made for you, the opportunity for your comprehension."
I never expected that this little vine could create such a realistic illusion. Could it be some kind of magic treasure?
With a thought, Ye Pianran gently touched the vine, and then the vine slipped from her wrist and was held in her palm.
Spirit Abyss Vine, Tier 1
Attribute: Demon
Description: Originating from the Abyss of the Far North in ancient times, this is a vine found in the Abyss of the Far North. The vine is entirely ice-blue, tough and not easily cut, and is not afraid of lightning, fire, or floods. It has an extremely strong ability to reproduce. Although its attack power is low, its sap has a paralyzing effect and can also create illusions to confuse enemies.
Belongs to: Ye Pianran.
Low attack power, but can paralyze and confuse the enemy? Could this Spirit-Summoning Vine... actually be a weapon?
Ye Pianran was shocked. She looked up at Chunyu Yang and found that he was just as surprised as she was.
“I had been thinking about what weapon I should use to teach you self-defense skills, but I didn’t expect this space to have already chosen one for you.” Chunyu Yang came back to his senses and said, “That’s good. This Lingyuan Vine may be more suitable for your practice of the Tai Su Ling Needle than other weapons in the outside world. After all, your ability to comprehend the mental technique is thanks to it.”
The Lingyuan Vine swayed its tendrils in Ye Pianran's palm, looking quite smug.
Ye Pianran found its nimble appearance quite amusing and said, "I just don't know how to use it. How can such a small plant hurt anyone?"
"Let's try it again when we have the chance," Chunyu Yang said. "It will definitely be useful."
The two left the space and returned to Ye Pianran's room. With them came the Lingyuan Vine that was wrapped around Ye Pianran's wrist.
Ye Pianran glanced at her wrist, then concealed the Spirit Abyss Vine with her sleeve. Chunyu Yang then stood up, walked to the door, opened it, and nodded to Gongsun Yuan and Liu Luluo, who had rushed over upon receiving the news. He said:
"She's awake."
Gongsun Yuan immediately lifted her skirt and rushed into the room, throwing herself at the bedside and tightly grasping Ye Pianran's hand, asking about her condition. Ye Lingyue and Lingyi also anxiously stayed by her side, one feeding her medicine and the other wiping her sweat.
The scene was so heartwarming that Chunyu Yang didn't want to disturb them any further, so he simply stepped out of the room and gently closed the door behind him.
Liu Lulu crossed her arms, looked Chunyu Yang up and down, and asked with a smile:
"You've done quite a few good deeds since you came to the Marquis's residence today. What, are you determined to make a move? You dare to defend her like this in front of her father. You have absolutely no respect for the people of the Marquis's residence."
"If I don't protect her, who will?" Chunyu Yang said without changing his expression. "Hope for Marquis Anshi? She will probably never get justice. Since I'm here, I won't let her suffer such injustice."
"Great!" Liu Lulu applauded him in her heart, then asked:
"With so many guests here today, they all saw it. Aren't you afraid that this matter will reach His Majesty and your mother tomorrow?"
“That would be even better,” Chunyu Yang said. In this way, everyone would know that the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Anshi's mansion was the one he had chosen, and the future mistress of the Northern Martial King's mansion.
"Cough cough," even though she had already seen through his thoughts, Liu Lulu was still choked by his self-righteousness. She bluffed and said, "Don't think you have the victory in your hands. Once a teacher, always a father. Even if His Majesty and Marquis Anshi agree, as long as I, the 'teacher,' say 'no,' you still won't get it."
After saying that, Liu Lulu raised her eyebrows, giving off a smug look that said, "Come on, hurry up and try to please me."
Chunyu Yangli ignored her, walked straight out of the room, picked up Jingxuan, and said to him, "Let's go, let's go back to the manor."
"You debt collector!" Liu Lulu was furious, hands on her hips, she shouted, "If you dare ignore me, I'll stop making medicine for you! Not only me, but my apprentice won't make medicine for you either!"
Chunyu Yang didn't hear the last sentence at all; he had already led Jingxuan far away. But even if he had heard it…
He'll probably just pretend he didn't hear it!
***
In the backyard of the Marquis's mansion, Ye Yingrou was brought here by the guards. Without saying a word, she was pressed onto a long bench, and a long, thick stick was raised, ready to be used to torture her.
Knowing that if the stick were to fall on her, Ye Yingrou would be crippled even if she didn't die, she immediately grabbed a handful of bewitching powder and unexpectedly sprinkled it on the faces of the guards surrounding her.
The bewitching powder was incredibly potent; just a touch on her face was enough to knock all the guards unconscious. Taking advantage of the guards' collapse, Ye Yingrou, still shaken, scrambled up from the bench and ran desperately toward the back door, knocking down several more male slaves and guards along the way before finally managing to leave the Marquis's residence unharmed.
Leaning against the high wall behind the Hou Mansion, Ye Yingrou's hair was disheveled, her clothes were in disarray, and half of her face was covered with red and swollen blisters. She looked both wretched and terrifying. She turned around and glared fiercely at the Hou Mansion, took a deep breath, clenched her fists, and walked towards the other end of the alley.
She miscalculated today. If she hadn't acted on impulse without a thorough plan, Ye Pianran and Tong Zhu probably wouldn't have seized the opportunity to turn the tables on her! Actually, she didn't have to suffer like this. If her father had just acknowledged her as his daughter in front of everyone, this matter would have become a "family affair" of the Marquis's mansion, and outsiders wouldn't have had any say in it. But who would have thought that her father would choose to abandon her...
Does this mean that after her favorability rating dropped, her father no longer wants her as his daughter? And her brother, he never once stood up for her from beginning to end. Does he care so much about his pride?
Thinking of this, Ye Yingrou felt even more hatred for Ye Pianran and Chunyu Yang. Filled with resentment, she walked out of the alley. Her eyes lit up, and she quickened her pace, running to the carriage and calling out:
"Your Highness, Rou'er is back."
As she spoke, she tried to climb onto the carriage to serve Chunyu Jing as usual, but the coachman stopped her with his whip, handed her a piece of silk cloth, and said:
"The prince said that you should cover the injury on your face and serve outside the carriage."
Ye Yingrou stared wide-eyed in astonishment at the piece of silk, not taking it for a long time. The coachman, oblivious to her thoughts, tossed the silk into her hand, then raised his whip and slapped the horse's rump.
"drive!"
The carriage swayed and moved forward. Ye Yingrou gripped the silk cloth in her hand tightly, as if she wanted to break her fingers.
Chunyu Jing's affection for her has dwindled to just 1 point!
