Chapter 18

"Feel the anger in your heart, and imagine a flower blooming from your heart, rising up to the top of your head. Imagine... imagine well, imagine quietly, and you must imagine a flower. A flower is on top of your head, yes, it’s a flower, no matter how big or small, it’s a flower, a flower..." Uncle Tian’s voice was like an ancient, long-dormant bell, striking rhythmically in Ye Jun Tian’s consciousness.

Ye Jun Tian gradually sank into his mind, entering a state of unprecedented meditation.

At this moment, cold energy and fire energy alternated within Ye Jun Tian’s body, following the positive and negative qi currents in a regular pattern. Gradually, they reached a state of harmonious integration. The fire in the stove continued to burn fiercely, and the medicinal water in the pot was boiling in a leaping manner.

However, Ye Jun Tian, sitting cross-legged in the pot, had forgotten everything. He had entered a state of deep meditation. Uncle Tian, at this moment, moved outside and sat on the stone roller, puffing on his tobacco pipe.

Ye Qing Xiao hurried over, and Uncle Tian shook his head. Ye Qing Xiao did not dare to speak, standing quietly outside the woodshed, waiting.

"How could it be a peak Earth Martial Realm or even a Heaven Martial Realm expert?" In the Liu family of Qingzhou, after listening to the account of his second brother Liu Xiong, who had just returned from Qingmu City, the family head Liu Ying Qi frowned deeply, not believing it at all.

"I also find it strange. That guy is too powerful. To be honest, I couldn’t withstand his single palm strike. That palm strike came from over forty to fifty meters away, and I was injured. Moreover, that person carried Ye Jun Tian away in two flashes and disappeared. Throughout the entire process, that person never spoke a word. And he was wearing a ghost mask, so his face couldn’t be seen clearly. I think that person must have a very close relationship with Ye Jun Tian. Otherwise, why would he risk his life to save Ye Jun Tian?" Liu Xiong said.

"This is indeed strange. How could such an expert come from the Liu Qing Xiao lineage? Unless there were some in the old days." Liu Ying Qi suddenly paused, his face turning somewhat gloomy.

"It can’t be the Gai family. If the Gai family still had such an expert, they wouldn’t have declined to this extent. They can’t even enter the third-rate family circle in Qingzhou. Fortunately, the Gai family has a good daughter, or they would have been finished long ago. In the past, the Gai family dominated Qingzhou, known as the first wealthy family. They have offended many families. Even now, there are many who would like to see them fall." Liu Xiong said.

"What do you think would happen to the Gai family if ‘Gai Luo Hua’ died or disappeared?" Liu Ying Qi smiled faintly.

"Brilliant plan, big brother, this idea is great." Liu Xiong laughed wildly.

"This matter must be handled with caution. As the first beauty of Qingzhou, Gai Luo Hua has many admirers, including some powerful martial arts masters who want to take her in. However, with so many people eyeing her, it’s hard to make a move. If she dies or disappears, it will definitely attract the attention of many families in Qingzhou. Someone will definitely step forward to investigate. Therefore, we can’t move against her unless it’s absolutely necessary. If we do, we must ensure that the plan is flawless. Otherwise, we might become the target of everyone’s criticism, which would be counterproductive. Of course, if we make a move, it might also reveal whether the Gai family still has any hidden experts. Since Liu Qing Xiao is so arrogant and has produced such an ignorant and arrogant waste, he has dared to challenge our Liu family’s authority. We must suppress him. Even if we uproot his lineage, so what? It’s just a small family that has lost its ‘reliance.’ Once his lineage is completely eradicated, there will be some gossip at first. But over time, who will care about the life and death of a small family? Otherwise, if Liu Qing Xiao’s lineage doesn’t disappear, it will be a perpetual disgrace to our Liu family. Our enemies will also dig up this old account to mock us." Liu Ying Qi smiled coldly.

"In a while, I heard that the third young master of the ‘Flowing Cloud Divine General Mansion’ in the capital, Zheng Qing, who is a notorious playboy in ‘Shangdu City,’ will come to Qingzhou. It’s said that this person caused a huge scandal in ‘Shangdu,’ angering the Divine General to the extreme. Therefore, he was sent to Qingzhou to avoid the wind. Hehe, if this playboy sees Gai Luo Hua, there will be some fun." Liu Xiong chuckled.

"Second brother, I didn’t expect you to come up with such a plan. Not bad, not bad. However, there are risks with this approach." Liu Ying Qi said.

"What risks?" Liu Xiong asked.

"If Zheng Qing really falls for Gai Luo Hua and they get married, wouldn’t the Gai family then be associated with the Flowing Cloud Divine General Mansion? At that time, the Gai family could rise again with the support of the mansion. This would be very disadvantageous for us." Liu Ying Qi said.

"Family head, you don’t need to worry about this at all." Liu Yan, the major steward who had been silent, said.

"Oh, why?" Liu Ying Qi asked.

"Gai Luo Hua is a talented woman, with a spirit higher than the sky. At the age of ten, she could play the zither beautifully, like flowing clouds and running water. Even the master of the zither in ‘Shangdu City,’ ‘Luo Hua Yu,’ praised her after listening to her play. Now, at the age of fifteen, she is a budding beauty with stunning beauty. Combined with the charm of a master zither player, she has a grace that can make fish dive and geese fall. Don’t say Zheng Qing, the trash playboy, but over the years, which young master or wealthy martial arts master has won her heart? Even the status of the Qingzhou King is only slightly lower than the Flowing Cloud Divine General Mansion. Has Gai Luo Hua ever looked at them?" Liu Yan said.

"Ha ha ha, that makes sense. When Zheng Qing comes to Qingzhou and plays the playboy, if he ruins Gai Luo Hua, he can just leave. What can the Gai family do? At most, they will have to pay a large sum of blood crystal coins. Over time, they will disappear into the long river of history. The Gai family will truly become a thing of the past." Liu Ying Qi laughed loudly.

Finally, a small flower formed in his mind.

The flower was about the size of a finger, mostly white, but with some red threads. The whole flower trembled and seemed fragile, as if it could be scattered by a breeze. However, it had formed. Now, he needed to push the flower out of his skull to make it a true ‘Blood Flower.’

In the vast world of Wu, although martial artists cultivate bloodlines, the blood qi they cultivate is not necessarily red. It can be of various colors, such as gold, green, and white. It’s just a form of energy, similar to inner qi. Therefore, a Blood Flower doesn’t have to be red. Blood qi is just a special form of energy in the vast world of Wu.

"Boom, boom, boom... Charge, charge, charge..."

Ye Jun Tian thought frantically in his mind, controlling the Blood Flower to continuously strike his crown. With a loud bang, it seemed as if his crown had exploded, startling the Ye Jun Tian in his mind.

Soon, he saw a door. The door emitted a terrifying and eerie aura. Regardless, he continued to strike! Ye Jun Tian was determined, and the ‘Blood Flower’ continuously collided with the mysterious door.

"You damn bastard, you’ve taken my body, give it back, give it back..." A furious resentment came, apparently from the original owner of the body.

Ye Jun Tian saw another ‘himself,’ a shadowy figure standing on the door, staring at him fiercely.

"I have completed your long-held wish for you. I am now a Wood-level disciple. You should thank me." Ye Jun Tian said in his mind.

"Bullshit, you’ve taken my body. My parents have become your parents, and you’ve killed me. I should thank you? Bullshit, bullshit, I’m going to kick you to death." The shadowy Ye Jun Tian, with a fierce face, pounced at the Ye Jun Tian outside the door.

"Damn, you ungrateful bastard, I’ll kick you to death." Ye Jun Tian was also furious, controlling the Blood Flower to strike the shadow like a hammer.

The two ‘selves’ battled outside the door. After hundreds of moves, Ye Jun Tian was drenched in sweat. Ye Qing Xiao, watching from the side, was full of worry. Even Uncle Tian, who had been silent, forgot to smoke, his eyes fixed on Ye Jun Tian in the iron pot.

Finally, a faint sound came.
