Chapter 225: Chapter 225: The Embarrassment of the Male God_1
The treasure sword appeared to be identical to how it had been a moment ago, so how could it have suddenly lost its spiritual power?
Qin Sisi had no idea what Ye You had done to the sword, she could only gaze at him in puzzled bewilderment.
Seeing Qin Sisi’s probing gaze, Ye You coughed lightly and said, "Let’s leave first, I’ll tell you along the way."
Since the treasure sword had lost its spiritual essence, it would no longer pose a threat to Zhu Zihao, meaning their mission had been completed.
Just as Qin Sisi was about to agree, she suddenly remembered something and said, "I wonder if there are any spiritual artifacts that have been blessed in the other rooms. We’ve made the effort to come here, we should thoroughly check everything."
Ye You nodded and praised, "You are very thoughtful."
Qin Sisi gave a slightly shy smile and together with Ye You, they inspected every room in Gu Liang’s house. After confirming that there were no other spiritual artifacts, they jumped out from the balcony window and began their return.
As Qin Sisi controlled the Wings of Rainbow to return, she asked Ye You, "What exactly did you do to that sword? Why can’t you tell me?"
Qin Sisi had keen senses and had already noticed Ye You’s deliberate evasion.
Ye You let out a bitter laugh and said, "It’s not that I can’t tell you, I’m afraid you... won’t like it."
"Dislike? Why would I dislike it?" Qin Sisi was even more puzzled, Ye You enabling the sword to lose its spiritual power was a good thing for them, why would she object or have an opinion?
Ye You didn’t know how to explain it, but he knew Qin Sisi wouldn’t give up seeking the truth until she found it, and he didn’t want her to be confused by his actions.
Ye You took a moment to gather his thoughts and then slowly said, "I put something on that sword."
Qin Sisi immediately continued to ask, "What is it?"
It took Ye You another moment before he answered, "Human excrement."
Qin Sisi: "..."
So, this was the reason Ye You had been reluctant to tell her. It was indeed hard to mention, especially in front of Qin Sisi.
After thinking for a moment, Qin Sisi understood Ye You’s feelings, so in order to avoid embarrassing him further, she intentionally asked in a relaxed tone, "I see, but why did you do that?"
Ye You breathed a sigh of relief at Qin Sisi’s unbothered attitude. Although what he’d done was necessary, it did tarnish his image. He was truly worried that Qin Sisi would find it hard to accept.
Ye You paused briefly before answering, "Spiritual artifacts that have been blessed are most afraid of impurities. As soon as they are contaminated, they lose their spiritual essence."
Qin Sisi silently nodded her agreement. Although this method was rather odd, it was certainly a simple and convenient solution.
"I understand," Qin Sisi said softly.
After a short pause, Qin Sisi added, "Don’t worry, special circumstances call for special measures, it’s fine."
Seeing Qin Sisi’s agreeable response, Ye You felt completely reassured. A bright light flickered in his violet eyes, and he could not resist lowering his head to plant a kiss on Qin Sisi’s smooth, fair cheek.
Qin Sisi’s heart raced, her control over her magic wavered, causing her to lose control of the Wings of Rainbow. Her figure swayed in mid-air.
Qin Sisi quickly calmed her mind to settle her magical power.
Once she had regained her balance, Qin Sisi exhaled with relief, but still gave Ye You an annoyed glance, complaining, "You mustn’t do that again, what would happen if we fell?"
Ye You let out a low chuckle, settling quietly onto Qin Sisi’s shoulder.
When they were almost home, Qin Sisi suddenly had an idea and suggested to Ye You, "We still have time with the Invisible Bubble, should we go to Gu Liang’s company directly?"
Ye You shook his head, "We have enough time to reach his company with the Invisible Bubble, but not to check the entire company, let’s go tomorrow."
Qin Sisi knew Ye You was right but still hesitated, "In this case, it will take us several days to cleanse all the spiritual artifacts, isn’t that too time-consuming? Why don’t I distract the receptionist at the entrance while you find a chance to sneak in?"
The eighty-one ghosts within a year, like eighty-one great mountains, constantly made Qin Sisi feel that tremendous pressure.
Qin Sisi’s proposal was one way to go about it, but...
After a moment’s hesitation, Ye You stated with a serious tone, "If Zhu Zihao seeks revenge in the future, Gu Liang’s death will be certain. If you’ve made an appearance in the company and acted suspiciously, it might attract the police’s attention. I don’t want that to happen."
Qin Sisi looked at Ye You softly, her heart touched by his thorough consideration.
After pausing briefly, Ye You softly reassured, "Sisi, don’t rush. We can definitely do it."
Qin Sisi nodded slightly, refraining from further discussions, controlling the Wings of Rainbow, she flew back to her home place.
With the rest of the daytime, Qin Sisi, with the help of Ye You, practiced the Fireball Technique. Perhaps it was the case of a small accumulation leading to a change in quality; after five hours of practice, the number of times Qin Sisi successfully conjured a fireball had greatly increased compared to before.
However, all of them were small fireballs that extinguished in an instant. They still couldn’t even approach the wooden stake from three meters away, let alone scorch it.
Nevertheless, this tiny improvement made Qin Sisi incredibly excited.
The sun gradually set, the sky slowly darkened, and darkness once again enveloped the earth.
After dinner, Qin Sisi cleaned the house, then said to Ye You, "Can we let Yuan Lishu out tonight?"
"We can," replied Ye You, then after a brief hesitation, he warned, "Although she no longer has spiritual power, you disabled one of her arms, she might hate you, so be careful."
Taking Ye You’s words to heart, Qin Sisi nodded seriously and then responded, "I understand, I’ll be careful."
As she spoke, Qin Sisi took out the Divine Dog’s Fury and held it in her hand, just in case.
The memory of the fight with Yuan Lishu that night was still very clear, the extremity of the event still made Qin Sisi anxious, so it was best to be cautious.
Ye You stepped back a few steps, then with a flick of his paw, a faint figure drifted out and fell softly to the floor.
Qin Sisi took a careful look, Yuan Lishu, clad in a pink dress was still tightly bound by the Vajra Bundling Spirit Rope. Her eyes were tightly shut, unconscious. Her exquisite features looked somewhat haggard, her face pale, while her black hair lay messily on her cheeks and neck.
Qin Sisi looked back at Ye You and nodded slightly to indicate she was ready and that he could wake her up.
Ye You raised his paw, sending a beam of silver light towards Yuan Lishu’s forehead.
After a moment, Yuan Lishu gradually opened her eyes, gazing dazedly at her surroundings, still not fully aware of her current situation.
