Chapter 778: Breaking Free
Yu Sichen looked at the hand Chen Yu extended, and she shed tears in a daze.
Scenes of being with Chen Yu surfaced in her heart like movie frames, and finally, her frozen heart finally had a trace of movement.
"Yu Sichen, do you really want to come back? Have you forgotten the days of the past?" That sharp, hoarse voice surfaced in her heart again: "Do you still want to return to the days of the past?"
"Si Chen, don't be influenced by him," Chen Yu shouted: "He is nothing but an evil ghost from Hell. You must overcome your fear, otherwise, you will be controlled by him for the rest of your life."
Seeing the look of painful struggle on Yu Sichen's face, Chen Yu could not help but shout violently.
Suddenly, a black aura rose from Yu Sichen's body, and her pupils turned completely black in this instant.
At the same time, a voice that was a mix of hoarse and sharp sounded: "Chen Yu, don't be a busybody."
"What exactly are you?" Chen Yu stared coldly at Yu Sichen; the current Yu Sichen had her consciousness completely occupied by the other party.
Moreover, this thing was a time bomb for Yu Sichen. It was currently hiding in Yu Sichen's consciousness and not dominating Yu Sichen's body because it had just awakened and needed to nourish itself.
If it finished nourishing itself and its Spirit Soul stabilized, it would immediately and completely dominate Yu Sichen's consciousness, and the future Yu Sichen would become the vessel for it to walk in the world.
"I am... the Ancestor Ghost, an anomaly wandering between heaven and earth, feeding on resentment and devouring the Seven Emotions of humans. Human negative emotions can help me grow." The hoarse and sharp mixed voice sounded, appearing very grating.
"No wonder you would attach yourself to her," Chen Yu said coldly: "Get out of her body immediately."
"Hehe, it was I who saved her. Now she is me; we have become one, inseparable." The Ancestor Ghost's grating voice sounded again.
"That may not be so," Chen Yu sneered. He grabbed with his right hand, and Lichen had already appeared in his hand.
A sharp, grating laugh rang out. The Ancestor Ghost controlling Yu Sichen suddenly spread its arms, and two clusters of green aura formed; the green mist clusters attacked Chen Yu.
This green mist was condensed from the aura of resentment and filth. Anyone who touched it would become a Puppet. Yu Sichen's parents and those few thugs had all lost their lives this way.
Chen Yu dodged to the side. Because the evil ghost occupied Yu Sichen's body, he could not use lethal force and could only keep dodging, constantly circling her body.
Suddenly, Yu Sichen waved her hands, and the two clusters of green aura formed dozens of ice spikes in mid-air; a cold aura filled the surrounding air.
Crack! Crack! Several ice spikes condensed. Chen Yu carefully dodged these ice spikes and quickly darted toward Yu Sichen's body.
Seeing his chance, Chen Yu put away Lichen and flashed, turning into an afterimage. He opened his right hand, and an apricot-yellow Talisman appeared in his hand. He stared fixedly at Yu Sichen and stuck the Talisman in his hand onto her forehead.
Just at this moment, Yu Sichen grabbed into the void with her right hand, and an ice spike formed between her fingers; she stabbed toward Chen Yu without hesitation.
Pfft... The sharp ice spike nailed into Chen Yu's shoulder. In this instant, the ice spike turned into a cold aura, quickly attacking the major meridians throughout Chen Yu's body, but at the same time, the Talisman in Chen Yu's hand also sank into Yu Sichen's forehead.
Yu Sichen's body went limp, and she fell to her knees with a thud. The black aura in her Double Pupils dissipated, while Chen Yu retreated, a cold aura flowing through his entire body.
Chen Yu locked his brows; this cold aura made him unable to help but shiver. Moreover, the wound on his shoulder quickly frosted over and spread toward his whole body. He hurriedly circulated his Original Power, and a surge of Original Power circulated through his meridians for one cycle; only then did his condition improve slightly.
"Chen Yu, are you alright?" Yu Sichen finally woke up. Seeing the frost on Chen Yu's shoulder, she was startled and hurriedly ran over to hold Chen Yu's arm.
"I'm fine. The thing in your body has been temporarily suppressed by me, but that move of yours really hurt." Chen Yu smiled; the cold and pain in his shoulder made him involuntarily gasp.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I couldn't control myself at all. Please don't be angry with me." Yu Sichen was so anxious that tears fell. She knew how strong her full-force strike was; an ordinary person would likely have lost their life long ago.
Fortunately, Chen Yu had Primordial Qi protecting his body, so he wasn't injured that severely, but looking at Chen Yu's current state, it probably wasn't comfortable.
"It's fine, as long as you're back." Chen Yu took out a Talisman, dissolved it into Talisman Water, swallowed half, and sprayed the other half on the wound. A moment later, the frost on the wound on his arm slowly disappeared.
"I originally wanted to see you one last time and then leave here forever. I didn't expect to hurt you." Yu Sichen hugged Chen Yu, crying uncontrollably: "Thank you for everything you've done for me. Even if one day I disappear completely, I will never forget you."
"What silly things are you saying? You're back, so you're back. From now on, you will never disappear again." Chen Yu held her head and stroked her hair, saying: "I have already avenged you. From now on, you will never need to be involved with anyone, and you can live happily."
"But, I can't turn back anymore." Yu Sichen's tears fell in large drops: "The thing in my body has already taken shape and taken root in my consciousness. Wanting to make it leave is probably not an easy thing."
"That thing in your body is called the Ancestor Ghost," Chen Yu said: "I don't know what its origin is, but it feeds on human Seven Emotions and Resentment, constantly strengthening itself."
"Now that it is entangled with your consciousness, trying to forcibly expel it will likely cause you harm, and my suppression of it is only temporary. But don't worry, I will find someone to think of a way. Rest assured, it can be solved," Chen Yu said.
Yu Sichen nodded slightly. She had unconditional trust in Chen Yu. Now that Chen Yu said there was a way, she believed Chen Yu would definitely have a way.
But truthfully, Chen Yu had no plan in mind; the main issue was that the Ancestor Ghost's identity was unknown, and he didn't even know if it was male or female.
This thing was entirely a heresy derived from the dark places of heaven and earth. Now that it was entangled with Yu Sichen's consciousness, their thoughts had assimilated, and wanting to expel it would likely be very difficult.
However, Chen Yu thought that Liu Lianxin's Green Lotus Dharma Seal was transformed from a Buddhist Green Lotus. Besides having immense power, it could calm the mind and stabilize the universe, and Buddhist True Incantations could purify the soul. Perhaps she had a way to expel the Ancestor Ghost from Yu Sichen's consciousness.
