Chapter Fifty: The Power of Taiyin
"The night of the full moon has arrived!"
His eyes froze for a moment, as if there was a stunning beauty in the round moon.
While Chen Ye was not that kind of romantic, he wouldn't change his mind for a strange woman, even if this woman's one smile could overturn everyone.
After a moment, Chen Ye immediately changed direction and rushed quickly towards another place in the mansion.
The night of the full moon was when Xiaoyao's illness would flare up.
For this, although as master and servant, in fact as siblings, the maid had a deep sympathy in her heart day and night!
Xiao Yan was only a little over one year older than Chen Ye, and when Chen Ye was still very young, his parents went out once and accidentally found Xiao Yan who had been abandoned in the mountains.
Her parents were kind and also thought of finding a companion for Chen Ye, so they brought back Xiao Yan. As for the name, Chen's parents and everyone in the Chen family did not consider Xiao Yan as an adopted child, nor did they treat her as a maid. Therefore, she was also surnamed Chen and had a very nice name.
But after Xiaoyao came of age, for some unknown reason, the gentle and obedient Xiaotou suddenly changed her name to Xiaoyao on a certain day and refused to become the adopted daughter of Chennye's parents, becoming the little princess of the Chen family.
At that time, Chen Ye was still young and didn't pay much attention to Xiao Yan's movements. In his heart, as long as she was his sister, everything else didn't matter.
Time flies swiftly by until...
After the incident at Beiwang Mountain, Chen Ye locked himself up and others didn't dare to come near him for fear of stirring him up. Only Xiao Ya stayed by his side, talking to him and having meals with him, which helped Chen Ye get through those extremely difficult days.
One casual conversation, Chen Ye casually mentioned childhood things, and asked Xiaoyan why she didn't want to become a foster daughter of the Chen family, why she didn't accept the Chen family's kindness, but was willing to become a maid.
Xiao Yao's answer at that time shocked Chen Ye greatly and made him feel treasured.
She said: "I am a person abandoned by others, this life is already unlucky, and I don't deserve everyone's love! Why was I abandoned, everyone knows, heaven has already destined that my life is a big trouble, and I won't live long. So, you all shouldn't take me too seriously, lest when I leave, everyone will have too much sorrow!"
At a young age, she is so sensible and has seen through the worldly affairs, taking life and death in stride. Perhaps Xiao's fate and circumstances have made her so enlightened, but it was precisely this conversation that moved Chen Ye greatly, who had been stuck in his own world, and ultimately led him to walk out of the valley and decide to take another path of cultivation!
Arriving at the courtyard where Xiao Yao lived, a chill of icy coldness hit him in the face. Looking around, the entire small courtyard seemed to be covered with a thin layer of frost.
Look up at the sky, vaguely aware that the round moonlight seems to condense into a beam, falling from high altitude and landing directly in Xiaoyao's room.
The moonlight was cold and stern, Xiaoyan's condition was getting worse and worse. At this rate, it won't be long before Xiaoyan leaves this world forever.
"Nobody is allowed to come near, after my second uncle comes, tell him I'm inside and ask him not to come in either."
After saying a word to the guardian outside the yard, the mysterious air wrapped around his body and rushed into the yard like the wind, pushing against the biting cold air. Chen Ye pushed open the door and walked in with big strides.
"Little servant!"
Although he had already prepared himself in his heart, when he saw Xiaoyao, his face still changed color drastically.
Now Xiao Yao's face, which was once so delicate and fair, had turned deathly pale to the extreme, with threads of cold air visible to the naked eye spreading out from her body.
This cold air surged, wherever it covered, including space, was emitting a crystal-like glow. At this moment, even Xiaoyan's hair was filled with tiny ice crystals...
Especially, the moonlight that passed through the roof of the house directly enveloped Xiaoyao's body. The originally soft light beam also became extremely cold at this moment.
"Xiao Ya, hold on, I'll treat your illness right away."
Feeling the extreme cold air that had seeped out of Xiao Yu's body, Chen Ye's own body also trembled slightly. The protective Xuan Qi surrounding him was actually weakened a lot at this moment.
"Don't worry, young master, I can definitely hold on."
Xiao Yao clenched her lips tightly, her small body trembling constantly, the cold air emanating from her made her look like she was in agony.
Looking at Xiao Yao's current state, Chen Ye felt a heart-wrenching pain, took a deep breath, and stepped forward to grasp Xiao Yao's icy hand. Immediately, the mysterious energy within him transformed into a torrential flow that surged in like a flood.
Then, using the power of Xuan Qi, neutralize that cold and icy aura.
For many years, Xiaoyao has been using the same method to alleviate her illness on full moon nights, but it is clear that this method can only reduce Xiaoyao's suffering when she falls ill, and cannot eradicate the root cause.
Otherwise, Xiao Yao's appearance when he was ill would not become more and more painful, and that cold air would not become increasingly icy and piercing!
At the moment when the mysterious energy entered Xiaoyao's body, Chen Ye couldn't help but tremble and secretly cursed: "Damn the power of Taiyin!"
Xiao Yao's physical condition, the old master had personally treated her once before. It was also the old master who told everyone that in the eyes of ordinary people, Xiao Yao was ill, but in fact, she was being invaded by the power of Taiyin, which led to this state of illness.
The power of Taiyin is simply Yin energy!
Xiao Yao was invaded by Taiyin's power and has become overly yin.
Yin and yang balance, the world can be stable, people can also grow up slowly. If there is a fork, the world will not be stable, and people will often get sick, similar to Xiaoyao, it's not just that some forks have appeared...
Taiyin, also refers to the moon, Taiyin's power, often corresponds to the round moon's power.
At first, Xiao Yao's illness was not yet linked to the Taiyin force of the full moon, and she would only be affected by it when the moon was full, which would trigger her illness. Now, the Taiyin force of the full moon has directly enveloped Xiao Yao, making it clear that the yin energy existing within her body has probably completely suppressed the yang energy.
If there is no way to balance Yin and Yang in Xiaoyao's body in time, Xiaoyao will die.
In fact, in Chen Ye's memory, Xiao Yan indeed passed away soon after.
Nowadays, rebirth has come again... What's the use of being reborn again?
In itself, the mysterious energy entered Xiao Yu's body and although he tried his best to neutralize that cold energy day and night, he still clearly felt that he was no longer in control. To say nothing of him, even if Lao Yezi came over at this moment, it was uncertain whether he could completely neutralize it.
Moreover, the way of moderation can only alleviate Xiao Yu's suffering and cannot eradicate the root cause of the disease.
After birth, yin and yang are out of balance, this is a congenital disease. Therefore, even with the old master's insight, it is not known whether there is any spiritual medicine in the world that can cure Xiaoyao. Otherwise, if the old master knew, the Chen family would have found such a spiritual medicine for Xiaoyao many years ago.
Time passed, and under the desperate efforts of Chen Ye at night, the extremely large amount of cold air in Xiao Mao's body was finally neutralized a lot, leaving only a small amount that could no longer cause Xiao Mao too much pain.
The usual calmness has almost come to an end at this time, but this time...
The cold energy surging inside Xiao Yao was neutralized, leaving only a tiny bit behind. At this point, the Taiyin force of Yuan Yue should have been withdrawn, but Chen Ye felt that it not only didn't retreat but instead surged even more violently, as if it wanted to directly detonate the excessive Taiyin force within Xiao Yao's body and take her away from the world of the living.
"You wish!"
At midnight, the remaining Xuanqi energy in his body was poured into Xiaoyao's body, trying to neutralize all the remaining cold air at once.
He succeeded, however, the penetration of the full moon's Taiyin power, he couldn't stop it, and was keenly aware of this Taiyin power entering Xiaoyao's body like electricity, then pulling out Xiaoyao's own Taiyin power, and then...
A faint riot, as if it had come from the depths of Xiao Yu's body.
"Could it be that even after reincarnation, having regained my past self and obtained a me I never had before, I still can't save Xiao Yao?"
In the still of night, I whisper softly in my heart, but my face suddenly becomes extremely ferocious!
