in a way, they were akin to knowing any thought that occurred, eerily similar to the methods of Divine Beings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were someone else, perhaps they would be quite intoxicated by this sensation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, Fu Qian just found them noisy, which for him truly constituted spiritual pollution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was there a once-and-for-all solution?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian stared blankly at the empty bottom of his bowl, then suddenly remembered something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, his wrist moved, the mark activated, and he went to the warehouse to retrieve the Sweet Dream Cage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After comparing the dark black Headcage to his head, Fu Qian didn’t hesitate and put it on directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, he felt an unprecedented tranquility in his mind; all the noise vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, one of its special effects was to isolate all gazes; dealing with these fragile, fragmentary thoughts wasn’t a challenge at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian went to the bathroom, looking at his sharp profile in the mirror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wearing this to a comic convention, he would probably get quite the second glances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The premise being he wasn’t carted away by the police first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, a few minutes later, Fu Qian still took off the Headcage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t care much about his image; he had no qualms about wearing it in the street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thing was effective, but unfortunately, it wasn’t a lasting solution!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet having verified its effect was a gain in itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why not solve the problem at its source?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He placed the Headcage on the table, and his divine consciousness swept through the numerous voices, finally locking onto one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Concentrating mentally on the orb, Xu Meng’s figure suddenly appeared in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There he was, lounging in bed in his robe, smoking and contemplating with a quiet, sharp gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Figures!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian nodded sympathetically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s tough getting old, unable to sleep so early.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after years in the cutthroat world, reviewing one’s enemies early in the morning could also be a pleasure in life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian fully understood this great man’s indignant feelings and had no complaints about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention, in a roundabout way, he had actually found the real culprit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only children believe in the saying “all grievances are washed away with a smile.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was for this reason that he felt no remorse in using Xu Meng as a test subject.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to the call filled with negative emotions, Fu Qian responded for the first time in his consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost instantaneously, he sensed a unique connection forming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The image before him was no longer just a simple visual; he felt he was observing Xu Meng from an even more special perspective.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a feeling of looking down from a high vantage point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emotions, physical condition, any slight change was impossible to hide from one’s own eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In such a scenario, Fu Qian naturally thought of a word—watching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Were those mysterious entities watching over him using the same perspective?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he really was dancing on the edge of a knife!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian remarked with a sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had a vague epiphany in his heart: under this link, if he wished, he could effortlessly imprint his thoughts into this person’s mind, creating a strong psychological suggestion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, such conduct was immoral and disrespectful to others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Scram.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian indifferently bellowed a word with his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s right, towards this person, I simply don’t respect him enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone’s out here hustling; a flexible moral baseline is like a must-have talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And on second thought, this is definitely for his own good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he pondered, there was already a clear reaction on the other side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right after the shout, Xu Meng immediately shuddered, instantly disappointing the woman rubbing against him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only that, but the domineering aura he was cloaked in also crumbled in an instant, instinctively curling into a ball, his face full of terror as he looked around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, the vision before him dissipated, the invisible link broke, and Xu Meng’s voice was no longer heard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sort of deterrence established after creating a link seemed to be quite effective; Xu Meng probably wouldn’t bother him for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian nodded silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, using this move against Young Master Qin and the others was something Fu Qian just couldn’t bring himself to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would have to slowly find a solution; fortunately, his circle of friends was small.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he was musing, a voice very inconsiderately interrupted his thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian focused his attention above, and what emerged before his eyes was a bright makeup mirror and Tan Ying sitting in front of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian’s brows furrowed once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he remembered correctly, today should be Saturday; as a university student, aren’t you being a bit too diligent?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait a minute, something does seem off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian observed Tan Ying in the vision. Wasn’t she a bit too excited?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to when they last met, Tan Ying radiated an unnatural vigor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian pondered for a moment and responded to her call with his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next instant, Fu Qian again entered that higher-dimensional perspective, revealing more details before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost immediately, he confirmed his earlier feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to Xu Meng before her, the brightness indicating the level of life force in her was undoubtedly much higher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And most notably, on her left wrist, a bracelet that should be inanimate was emanating a bright light, even possessing an indescribable spirituality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first thing Fu Qian thought of was the stone lion on the bridge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There seemed to be some commonality between them, the only difference being this one was more intense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was Fu Qian’s first thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, last time’s stone lion incident could basically be confirmed as caused by the release of Mythical Form’s Decree Residue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that he unwittingly exerted some influence during their last encounter?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he became a Demigod, had his influence over his surroundings become easier?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian temporarily put aside his concern about the noise and, after concentrating in thought for a while, he snapped his fingers and sent a wave of thought towards Tan Ying.\u003C\u002Fp>",1228,"2026-06-03T07:50:25.893Z","2026-06-03T07:50:30.690Z",1,"novelbin.me","5fa6d7ecd3784114033423d26c667c4ca7e44ed2824e3fe026c109f992ec692c","facing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-chapter-237","facing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-chapter-235",2389,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffacing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-cover.jpg"]
