Fairy, Don't Be Afraid, I Am Blind

"Junior Sister, I have to go down the mountain for a while. Take good care of Senior Sister!"

You Su hurriedly dressed and quickly ran up the Heavenly Ladder, leaving Ji Lingruo leaning by the window, watching his back with a puzzled expression.

You Su didn’t know what had happened with He Kongyue, but the words ’can’t see you anymore’ still shocked him.

He hadn’t favored one over the other, satisfying his wife but neglecting his brothers.

In fact, most of the overwhelmingly abundant Profound Qi had been given to He Kongyue of the Condensed Water Upper Realm, as relying solely on the three Spirit Platform Realm individuals to absorb Mr. Qianhua’s ’gift’ was too much.

Logically, Mr. He should have had a breakthrough in his realm, so why couldn’t he see me?

You Su finished reading all the messages sent by He Kongyue, trying to find some clues, but found nothing.

Most of the messages were asking about when he would return, whether affairs at the Qianhua Pavilion were still going smoothly, or simply if he had returned to the Return God Mountain, reminding him not to forget the agreement with the He Family.

Only Huijun’s message surprised him greatly—

"Are you looking to die?"

You Su knew very well that she wouldn’t say something like that without reason; she must have discovered something, and it was highly likely about the matter of him randomly accepting followers.

But how did she know? Did she plant some ghostly eye on me?

You Su could only reply while on the road.

"Why do you say that, Lady Huijun?"

To You Su’s surprise, Huijun, as always, replied quickly. Could it be that such an extraordinary figure was constantly watching the Xuanji Order?

"How dare you casually absorb the power of fleshly followers?!"

Just by reading these words, You Su could feel the anger and reproach from the other side.

"How did you know?"

This message wasn’t as quick as the first:

"He Kongyue suddenly experienced a surge in cultivation and asked me for reasons. I also received news that Mr. Bihua said you had signs of a breakthrough when bringing you back to the sect. Considering all this, it could only mean you gained something without effort."

You Su remained silent for a moment and chose to confess for more information:

"I did accept a fleshly follower, and their cultivation is very high."

"Is it Mr. Qianhua or Mr. Bihua?"

"Forgive me, I cannot disclose that."

Huijun was silent for a moment, then asked:

"So it’s Mr. Qianhua. How did you do it?"

"Using heart’s blood."

"You’re seeking death! No matter how strong the Power of the True God is, it cannot help you fully control a Void Realm Venerable with a Spirit Platform cultivation! Such a follower relationship is not stable! Haven’t you thought about what kind of situation you would face if you failed and exposed this ability?"

"The situation was urgent at the time... I had no choice."

"I hope, for your sake, that it is truly your last resort. Remember, turning enemies into evil entities is your last means, and it must be a last resort!"

"Our World Purification Sect helps you for the purpose of saving the world, not to turn everyone into evil entities!"

"Those that only corrupt hearts are called Evil Gods! They are our undying enemies!"

Huijun’s messages came in rapid succession, full of passionate emotion, like a dedicated teacher worried that a beloved student is going astray.

"I won’t do it recklessly in the future. At least for now, that woman does not seem so dangerous."

"How do you judge that?"

You Su hesitated for a moment but chose to conceal the fact. He couldn’t possibly say the woman seemed to enjoy this process of constant resistance and training...

"Still cannot disclose, but I will proceed cautiously."

"Your current mastery and understanding of the Power of the True God does not support you accepting so many followers. Because in the process of acquiring them, your Power of the True God is also being dispersed, thinning your strength."

But that is not the most terrifying part; have you thought about what if she also corrupts others? And those people corrupt more? Aren’t three Evil Gods enough? Do you, as the True Lord, wish to create more Evil Gods?

You think you can become the master of the world this way, but don’t forget, as water can carry a boat, it can also capsize it! You don’t understand the horrors of the Power of the True God! If you unintentionally create an unmeasurable monster or involve innocent people, you are the sinner!"

You Su was stunned speechless for a moment, falling into self-reflection—the misuse of powerful authority can only lead to self-destruction.

"More importantly, it puts the people around you in danger."

Huijun added abruptly.

You Su immediately snapped out of his shock and asked with concern, "Why?"

"Do you think a Void Realm Venerable is a pushover? At their level, they can exist in tandem with the Heavenly Dao. Below the Void Realm, upon a person’s death, their Profound Qi returns to the earth. Above the Void Realm, their Profound Qi is different from the Profound Qi of the world."

"You simply can’t control her. You divided her Profound Qi among your followers, and if she wants, she can trace her own Profound Qi back to know to whom you distributed it! Then take back what should originally be her own Profound Qi!"

You Su halted, realizing that his abrupt seizing of her Profound Qi likely infuriated Mr. Qianhua, this pathological woman. If she found out he had distributed the Profound Qi to others, she might indeed do something about it...

"But she is also a follower... What can she do?"

"Followers cannot attack the object of their faith, but that doesn’t mean they can’t attack fellow followers. Because her faith is in you, not others!"

"It’s similar to how lady beetle larvae devour unhatched eggs to obtain more food from their parents, or even attack and eat weaker newly hatched larvae. As the larvae grow, they attack other larvae. Cannibalism among followers follows the same logic!"
