75: Chapter 73 I will gently

As the words fell, Wang Donger raised her head, her glaze-like eyes looking at Lin Yan with some apprehension.

Lin Yan's face showed just the right trace of surprise, his brows slightly furrowing as he asked in return: "Something inside the body? What do you mean?"

Wang Donger took a deep breath, suppressing the inexplicable irritation and unease in her heart, before slowly speaking: "This matter… has actually been troubling me for a very long time."

"Do you remember last time by the Sea God Lake, that time when you saved me?"

Lin Yan nodded without interrupting, simply listening quietly.

"It was ever since then…"

Wang Donger's voice lowered a bit, her fingertips unconsciously gripping her hem tightly: "I saw with my own eyes that you used a spirit tool to trap Ma Xiaotao. After going back, I also repeatedly thought over the words you said to me at that time."

"After that, I began trying to accept spirit tools, to use spirit tools."

Speaking up to here, Wang Donger paused, a trace of a complex expression flashing through her eyes.

"Yet the strange thing is, every time I pick up a spirit tool, or even just raise this thought, it feels as if another voice in my mind keeps telling me —— stay away from it, do not touch it."

"At first, I couldn't determine whether that voice truly existed, or if it was simply my past subconscious instinctively repelling spirit tools."

"At that time, I thought I hadn't gotten used to it yet, thinking that trying a few more times might overcome it."

"Yet as the contact grew more and more frequent, that voice deep in my heart not only did not fade, but instead grew increasingly intense."

Lin Yan listened quietly, his face showing not the slightest abnormality, though he understood clearly in his heart.

Things like spirit tools, in the eyes of Tang San, were merely unorthodox paths, not even comparable to a single hair of his great Hidden Weapons.

At the same time, because the gap in strength between him and Wang Donger was truly too vast.

Even though his Divine Sense was in a slumber, merely the influence unconsciously emitted by it was completely irresistible to Wang Donger.

Thoughts flashed through his mind. Naturally, Lin Yan would not voice out these deductions that did not fit his current identity.

He merely nodded slightly, signaling Wang Donger to continue speaking.

Seeing that Lin Yan's face did not reveal any suspicious or abnormal expression, Wang Donger breathed a slight sigh of relief inwardly and continued: "If it were only like this, actually I still couldn't be sure what exactly was going on…"

"Yet just during the assessment a few days ago, I was suddenly affected by the mental storm erupting from Huo Yuhao's body."

Recalling the scene of that day, Wang Donger pressed her lips together, a trace of lingering fear flashing deep in her eyes.

"At that moment, I felt as if my Soul was about to be torn apart."

"However, at the very instant I was about to fail to hold on… I seemed to see a trace of blue-gold."

"No, it wasn't seeming!"

"There was indeed a burst of blue-gold light flashing across my consciousness!"

"Blue-gold?"

Lin Yan raised an eyebrow, feigning confusion.

"Mm."

Wang Donger nodded earnestly, her eyes carrying a bit of bewilderment.

"It's just… a very bright trace of blue-gold that flashed past in an instant."

"And at the very split second it flashed past, that oncoming mental storm was directly wiped out completely clean."

"Most importantly, I am very certain that is definitely not my own power!"

Saying this, she raised her head, her gaze directly meeting Lin Yan's eyes, a trace of hard-to-detect pleading in her tone: "Lin Yan, until now, I have never mentioned these things to anyone."

"Originally, I planned to wait until the holiday to go home and let the people at home help me check it properly."

"Yet these past few days, the unease in my heart has grown heavier and heavier."

"And within the academy, among all the people I know, you are… the person I am most willing to trust."

"Are you willing to help me?"

Finished speaking, she stared closely at Lin Yan, waiting for his reply.

Lin Yan did not reply immediately, instead frowning and showing a contemplative expression.

After quite a while, he slowly spoke, his tone solemn: "As classmates, if I have this capability, naturally I am willing to help you."

"And according to your description just now, I deduce that the problem might lie within your Spirit Sea."

Hearing this, Wang Donger's heart first leaped with joy, but then her expression instantly sank again.

Spirit Sea, she naturally knew what that was, and also knew the importance of that place.

If the problem truly lay within the Spirit Sea, then it would be troublesome…

Just as Wang Donger's thoughts were churning, Lin Yan's voice sounded once more.

"Therefore, if you are willing to trust me, I can actually try to enter your Spirit Sea and help you check it carefully."

"Enter… my Spirit Sea?"

Wang Donger was stunned for a moment, then nodded almost without hesitation.

This matter was like a thorn, having troubled her for too long; she truly was unwilling to wait any longer.

Moreover, this person was Lin Yan, so there was even less to worry about.

Reaching this thought, Wang Donger looked at Lin Yan with a resolute gaze: "I am willing."

Looking at the undisguised trust in the young girl's eyes, Lin Yan's heart stirred slightly, a gentle smile appearing on his face as he said softly: "Rest assured, I will enter gently, and will definitely not hurt you."

Meanwhile, while the two were talking, a wisp of Lin Yan's consciousness had already quietly sunk into his own Spirit Sea.

"Elder Electrolux, the opportunity has come."

A moment later, having received Electrolux's affirmative reply, Lin Yan no longer delayed, his gaze falling back onto Wang Donger: "Then I am going to begin."

"Remember, later on, do not give rise to any thoughts of resistance."

Following that, waiting for Wang Donger to nod gently, Lin Yan stepped forward, slowly lowering his body to gently press his forehead against hers.

The intersection point of the two eyes, two brows, forehead, and nasal bone was considered by Spirit Masters to be the abode where the mind is hidden, and this place was precisely where the Spirit Sea was located.

Having the Spirit Seas press against each other was naturally the simplest and most unhurried method for both parties to transmit Mental Energy.

However, the only flaw that wasn't quite a flaw of this method was that, as a result, the two of them ended up being far too close.

And as Lin Yan slowly approached, exchanging breaths with each other, Wang Donger's pretty face felt somewhat burning hot, and those attractive eyes involuntarily and quietly closed.

With a faint fragrance lingering at the tip of his nose, Lin Yan exhaled a puff of warm Qi, saying in a low voice: "Relax, I am going in."

"Mm~"

Feeling Wang Donger nod slightly, her long eyelashes trembled, gently brushing against his face.

Lin Yan no longer hesitated; the Mental Energy overlaid by the concealment power of the Prajna Heart Lamp transformed into an imperceptible stream of light, silently spreading and approaching Wang Donger's brow center.

The next moment, as Wang Donger completely put away all thoughts of resistance, Lin Yan's Mental Energy instantly plunged into her Spirit Sea.

Following that, what first reflected into his perception was a patch of faint gold, which was Wang Donger's own Mental Energy.

However, when Lin Yan and Electrolux's consciousness slowly penetrated this pale gold, "looking" deeper within, the scene before their eyes abruptly underwent a heaven-turning and earth-overturning change.
