Chapter 164 Soul Split
"Yao Yao?" Aunt Liang exclaimed in surprise, then quickly covered her mouth, afraid of waking Gu Ran upstairs.
Yu Yao waved her hand. "Don't be afraid, she won't wake up. I just want to know, what method did she use to control you? Maybe I can help you?"
Xu Zhiwu moved his fingers, and after a while, he spoke softly.
"She learned some sorcery in Siam, capable of extracting a wisp of another person's soul. She holds in her hand..."
He fell silent at this point.
"A wisp of Aunt Liang's soul?"
Xu Zhiwu nodded, "If she wanted to, she could kill my mother with a single thought."
Yu Yao narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly.
"That's it..."
No wonder Aunt Liang suddenly became forgetful; this is the reason!
"So you were all manipulated by her?"
I thought it was some kind of love spell cast on Xu Zhiwu, but I never expected it was because of this.
Xu Zhiwu pursed his lips. "I did think about killing her, but the moment I was about to do it, my mother suddenly fainted and stayed unconscious for three whole days."
Yu Yao considered it in silence for a moment.
Souls are not something you can just steal...
That's really tricky.
It would be too risky to let Amei perform the soul search.
The aftereffects of soul searching are too obvious, and the consciousness of a superhuman is much stronger than that of an ordinary person, making it very difficult to erase the traces of soul searching.
Even if someone is drugged and their soul is searched, they will still be discovered.
If Gu Ran herself doesn't know how to solve the problem, and then discovers that her soul has been searched, it will be troublesome.
......
Really annoying!
Can't we just live a normal life? Why resort to such crooked and evil methods?
What should have been a peaceful post-apocalyptic life has almost turned into a fantasy suspense thriller!
Yu Yao was a little angry.
Seeing her displeasure, Aunt Liang said to her with some self-reproach.
"Yaoyao~ Don't worry about Aunt Liang's affairs. I'm already so old, I've lived enough. But you young people should live your lives well and not be burdened by me, understand?"
Yu Yao frowned as she looked at Aunt Liang, her eyes filled with seriousness.
"Aunt Liang, do you know how terrible it feels to lose all your family and live alone in this world? I don't know if it's selfish to say that I want Zhiwu to live well, but... if something happens to you, Zhiwu will really break down. Can you bear it?"
Looking into Yu Yao's earnest and clear eyes, Aunt Liang suddenly shed two lines of clear tears.
"But...but...I don't want to see Zhiwu being manipulated by that woman because of me. Zhiwu could have a better life. I'm not willing to accept this, I'm really not willing to accept it!"
Yu Yao grasped Aunt Liang's hand and administered a potent dose of medicine.
“Aunt Liang, I’ve heard that there’s a kind of luck-borrowing technique in Siamese black magic that can forcibly transfer someone else’s luck to yourself.”
She paused, then continued, "Have you ever wondered why Uncle Xu, who was in such good health, would suddenly turn into a zombie?"
Aunt Liang was taken aback, and Xu Zhiwu excitedly knelt down next to Yu Yao, grabbed her arm and asked, "Yao Yao, do you know something?"
Yu Yao said helplessly, "What could I possibly know? I just noticed that Gu Ran's aura was strange. Didn't you guys notice that she was making some of the same subtle movements as Uncle Xu?"
For example, pointing with one's finger while thinking, drinking a large glass of water before eating, or leaning to the left when sitting on the sofa.
Upon hearing this, Aunt Liang and Xu Zhiwu both fell into a daze and deep thought.
A moment later, Aunt Liang suddenly burst into tears.
"This! This damned woman! How dare she?! She even laid a hand on Old Xu! Old Xu... Old Xu..."
Xu Zhiwu's hand, which was gripping Yu Yao's forearm, tightened for a moment.
After a long while, he slowly stood up amidst Aunt Liang's sobs.
His clenched fists and red-rimmed eyes clearly showed his sadness, breakdown, and self-blame.
Yu Yao sat quietly next to Aunt Liang, and waited until Aunt Liang was almost out of breath before saying, "Aunt Liang, we haven't avenged our great enemy yet, so please don't say such discouraging things, okay?"
"Fine, fine! I won't say a word! I'm going to live well and wait to see that heartless woman pay for my husband's life!!"
"Ah."
......
After finally calming Aunt Liang down, Yu Yao confirmed the matter once again.
"Aunt Liang, I want to confirm, are you really going to the Kyoto base? To be honest, I don't live at the base often."
Aunt Liang asked curiously, "So where do you live?"
"Mount Senpaku, next to the Kyoto base."
"Thousand Souls Mountain??" Xu Zhiwu's reaction was strong.
Yu Yao raised an eyebrow, "You know about Thousand Soul Mountain?"
"A no-man's-land, a forbidden zone where you can't get out once you enter. How could you possibly live there?"
"It's safe there."
Xu Zhiwu: "......"
Xu Zhiwu was silent for a while, then said, "Let's go. Our original destination was the official base. Kyoto is backed by the country, so we feel at ease."
Aunt Liang nodded in agreement.
Yu Yao said, "The climate over there is incomparable to that here. Have you thought it through?"
Xu Zhiwu said, "It's okay, we'll be prepared."
Yu Yao was now completely certain of their intentions, so that they wouldn't be unwilling to leave when the problem was solved.
Determining in advance whether they want to leave will help me decide when to leave myself.
"Okay, we'll leave once the last task is completed."
"it is good."
......
After finalizing the itinerary in Kyoto, Yu Yao finally managed to coax Aunt Liang to bed so they could leave.
Xu Zhiwu replied, "Yaoyao."
Yu Yao looked at Xu Zhiwu.
"You said."
Xu Zhiwu looked intently at Yu Yao, whose expression was calm, his tone tinged with hesitation.
"Did you find out something? That's why you followed me here?"
Yu Yao raised an eyebrow.
Will she admit it?
She would never admit it!
Admitting it is tantamount to directly telling people that you are the one who was reborn, isn't it?
"No."
“…Okay, I understand.”
"Mm." Yu Yao raised her chin to indicate goodbye, then turned and quickly left the Xu family.
She had only taken a few steps when she bumped into Duan Yifeng outside.
Duan Yifeng smiled at Yu Yao, his smile bright and clear.
"Sister Yu Yao, do you have a place to stay?"
"No."
"I have a room at my place, would you like to come?"
"can."
The people at the base are trying to win her over, to find her a place to stay, and to get away from those people.
We can't really find a place to hide in some kind of space.
That's too shabby.
......
Duan Yifeng's home is a small one-bedroom apartment in a building not far from the Xu family's house.
Yu Yao looked at the bedroom and frowned slightly.
It really is a room, but it didn't say whether it's empty or not...
Duan Yifeng quickly offered an explanation.
"Don't overthink it. You sleep in the bedroom, and I'll sleep in the living room."
“…” Yu Yao thought for a moment and took out five level-two crystal cores.
"rent."
"No need, no need," Duan Yifeng quickly refused.
But Yu Yao had already placed the crystal core on the small table in the living room, then turned around, went into the house, locked the door, and rested.
Duan Yifeng lowered his eyes and looked at the five crystal cores quietly placed on the table.
After a long while, he suddenly chuckled softly.
"How heartless, as if afraid I'll misunderstand..."
