Chapter 1003: Do You Believe in the Heavenly Dao?

"Miss Yu, do you also believe in the Heavenly Dao?" Lao Gui laughed heartily, his voice turning sharp: "Have you forgotten your previous life? And have you forgotten how your parents died?"

"When you were at your most painful and desperate, it was the Dark Power that saved you, but now you want to abandon the darkness and turn your heart toward the light? Hahaha, it really is laughable."

A look of pain appeared on Yu Sichen's face, and she said slowly: "Do it."

Lao Gui waved his right hand, and four faces in mid-air suddenly opened their eyes, then opened their blood-red maws and lunged at Yu Sichen. Yu Sichen stepped forward and pointed her right hand forward; a cold aura condensed, forming a cold wave in mid-air, and the four faces were frozen solid within the cold current.

Immediately following, four ice spikes suddenly surged forward, and accompanied by four screams, those four faces turned into ashes and disappeared without a trace. Yu Sichen stepped forward and flicked her right finger forward.

Crack, crack—several Ice Talismans formed, emitting a faint Buddha Light in mid-air, about to suppress Lao Gui within them.

Lao Gui let out a roar, his figure expanding once more. The four Ice Talismans let out a 'crack' sound, developing a fissure, and then with a roar, Lao Gui broke free from the restraints of the Ice Talismans, transformed into a trail of black smoke, and lunged at Yu Sichen.

Yu Sichen brought her hands together, then spread her arms, and spat out a "Lin."

With a hum, a Subduing Demon Halo suddenly appeared, and she went to meet Lao Gui.

Whoosh... Lao Gui and her figure crossed paths, and time seemed to slow down in that instant.

Yu Sichen flipped her body, and the Subduing Demon Halo at her fingertips suddenly rotated. A hurricane appeared, the Subduing Demon Halo formed a black hole, and Lao Gui was sucked into the halo while screaming, then the world returned to peace.

A Buddhist Bead appeared at Yu Sichen's fingertips; this Buddhist Bead was condensed from the Sarira of Huizhao Shitai. One could see the Buddhist Bead rotating rapidly at her fingertips, a Buddha Light appeared, and Lao Gui's face floated above the Buddhist Bead, revealing a painful expression.

"Lao Gui, why couldn't you hold on a little longer?" Yu Sichen sighed slightly.

"Miss Yu, I have no way to turn back anymore. Destroy me, so I don't have to suffer the pain of Reincarnation."

Lao Gui smiled miserably: "This Great Dao can no longer contain me, and I have no regrets. Thank you for being able to send me off yourself, it's just... I failed your expectations, I'm sorry."

Yu Sichen nodded slightly, a look of reluctance appearing on her face. She closed her eyes, the Buddhist Bead in her hand accelerated, and a Buddha Light shot into the sky, turning into a ball of flame, and within the flames, Lao Gui vanished into thin air.

Opening her palm, the walnut-sized Buddhist Bead in her hand had stopped spinning, only there was an extra mark on the Buddhist Bead.

"Living in this world, everyone has all kinds of tribulations. How many tribulations have you and I passed?" Yu Sichen looked at the Buddhist Bead, a look of compassion appearing on her face.

"A gale does not last the morning, a downpour does not last the day; these are all matters of Life." Chen Yu sighed slightly.

Yu Sichen nodded slightly. At this moment, the lights in the bar came on, and Su Yan walked over hurriedly with a man.

"Chen Yu, have the problems all been solved?" Su Yan asked.

"Solved, but just now Lao Gui manifested his form, and many people saw it. We have to get these people to sign a confidentiality agreement so they don't go out and talk nonsense," Chen Yu said.

"These people?" Su Yan pointed at the group of people who were scared pale and asked.

"Yes, these people," Chen Yu said.

"I brought a friend, Zhao Qi from the Tianyu Pavilion." Yu Sichen pointed to the man beside her: "A Mental Power controller, he can erase this memory of theirs."

"Mr. Chen, I've long admired your name." Zhao Qi walked forward and extended his hand toward Chen Yu.

"Hello," Chen Yu said: "Can the memories of these people be erased?"

"It can be done, it's not a big problem, just leave it to me," Zhao Qi said.

"That's good, I'll leave it to you," Chen Yu nodded.

Inside the Tianyu Pavilion, there are all people who possess strange arts and superpowers. The Zhao Qi before them is a Mental Power controller, and both his Mental Power and Mind Power are extremely strong.

Actually, Chen Yu also has a way to erase people's consciousness, but after all, this aspect requires specialization. If Chen Yu were to lose control, he would erase all of a person's memories, and the damage caused by that would be too great.

Su Yan left here with Zhao Qi, and Chen Yu and Yu Sichen went out together.

After going out, Gao Zhen was still standing outside. His eyes looked at Chen Yu with a somewhat complex expression—unwilling, but he had to be convinced.

"Senior Brother Gao, I offended you just now," Chen Yu smiled.

"Brother Chen, just now I had eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai. No wonder Xu Lao would bestow the Five Elements Order upon you; it turns out your strength is indeed extraordinary," Gao Zhen said somewhat awkwardly: "I was a bit arrogant before; it seems I was still lacking a good beating."

"I'll treat you to a drink another day, I'll head back first today," Gao Zhen smiled.

"Good, I'll treat you another day," Chen Yu nodded.

After Gao Zhen left, a beautiful figure flashed, and Zuer walked over somewhat timidly.

Seeing Zuer, Yu Sichen's face sank slightly: "Come here."

"Miss Yu, what's wrong? Seeing your expression isn't too good, what happened? Or did someone make you angry?" Zuer said with an innocent face.

Yu Sichen gestured with her right hand, and two azure Ice Talismans suddenly shot out, hiding themselves inside Zuer's body.

Zuer let out an 'ouch,' staggered back a few steps, and then looked at Yu Sichen with a fearful and terrified expression.

"The matter with Lao Gui, you instigated it, right?" Yu Sichen said coldly: "He was only one last thing away from success, but because of you, he failed at the last hurdle. You truly are hard to change your nature; what good does doing this do for you?"

"Miss, you are wronging me. I didn't instigate him; I just said my own thoughts. Who knew his willpower was so weak?" Zuer couldn't help but scream.

"Throw her to the Five Elements Pavilion, lock her up for a while to grind down the sharpness in her, so it's easier to discipline her later," Chen Yu glanced at Zuer.

"Chen Yu, what are you saying? Don't talk nonsense," Zuer said angrily.

"Just do as Brother Chen says. Brother Chen, locking her up for a while is fine, lest she doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth and causes even bigger trouble later," Yu Sichen said bitterly.

"Good, I'll contact someone now," Chen Yu nodded. That place, the Five Elements Pavilion, is specialized in dealing with lonely ghosts and wild spirits, and handling some Great Immortals, demons, and monsters.

Although Zuer is not the Zuer ghost from before, the baleful aura on her is somewhat hard to suppress. If she isn't given a taste of color, she will ruin bigger things later. The Five Elements Pavilion has plenty of ways to deal with her, teach her a lesson, and make her not dare to speak without restraint in the future.
