384: Chapter 384 The Shock of the Mysterious King

And then?

Then, at night, she went to the corridor alone.

Lin Yun was also in the corridor.

She took the initiative to approach him.

She took the initiative to flirt with him.

Lin Yun flirted back...

"Unless Big Sister is willing to marry me as my wife."

She was stunned for a moment at the time.

She didn't take it to heart.

She just thought this little guy was bold and interesting.

And then what happened after that?

She stepped closer again.

She moved an inch closer.

Almost hanging her entire body on him.

Lin Yun did not dodge.

Instead, he took the initiative to close the distance.

He pressed down on her wrist.

He leaned over slightly.

And said to her...

"Big Sister flirts with me, seduces me, and tries to win me over every day."

"Is Big Sister not afraid... of playing with fire and getting burned, eventually getting herself caught in it?"

From that moment on.

Her heart was in chaos.

King Xuanyin's expression became increasingly ugly.

She reorganized the entire timeline.

Scrutinizing every single detail.

Checking every single node.

Finally.

She found that turning point.

It was that sentence...

"Playing with fire and getting burned."

From the moment Lin Yun grabbed her wrist back.

From the moment he said those words.

She was no longer in a "normal" state.

After that.

Her spirit lost its defense.

Her Dao Heart was in turmoil.

Her ears turned red.

Her heartbeat was out of control.

She even did something in the side hall, right in front of King Leiyin.

She said that sentence which makes her feel extremely ashamed even now when looking back...

"You said you wanted to marry me during the day, and now you want to marry someone else at night?"

Words like this.

If it were her usual self.

She wouldn't have said a single word.

It was too stupid.

Too embarrassing.

It didn't fit her style at all.

King Xuanyin stood up abruptly.

Pacing back and forth in the room.

Her expression was gloomy to the extreme.

She began to suspect...

Had she been hit by some secret technique?

Had her spirit been controlled by someone?

But the next second.

She denied this guess.

She has Cultivated the Charm Dao for thousands of years.

The thing she is most proficient in is the Soul and Divine Thought.

If someone had used a secret technique on her.

It would be impossible for her not to notice.

Besides.

Among the people present at that time.

No one had this ability.

Su Xin's Tai Su Dustless Ice Jade Dao Body only restrains her charm body.

It cannot control her spirit.

King Blood Axe and King Feiyun follow a fierce and mighty path.

Their Divine Soul methods are far inferior to hers.

That girl, Moli?

Alright! Moli's Cultivation is just like her appearance.

It's been over eight thousand years, and she is still a seventh-rank.

Excluding these, there is only one possibility left...

Her abnormal reaction to Lin Yun.

Was spontaneous.

It was her own doing.

She willingly fell into it.

King Xuanyin's footsteps stopped.

She stood in place.

Her face turned from green to white.

Could it be that she...

Truly, within half a day.

Fell in love with a forty-eight-year-old sixth-rank youth?

Absurd.

Too absurd.

She shook her head.

Shaking it desperately.

She knew herself too well.

She was born with a heartless charm bone.

Having seen all the romance and wind.

Having seen through the human heart.

Whatever feelings or love.

In her eyes, they are all just methods.

All bargaining chips in a game.

It was impossible for her to develop true feelings in such a short time.

Appreciation is possible.

Curiosity is possible.

A desire for conquest is possible.

A sense of freshness is possible.

But "developing feelings"?

"Falling"?

"Dao Heart in turmoil"?

These emotions.

Should not belong to her.

But the facts are right before her eyes.

Everything she did today.

Every single thing exceeded her normal scope of conduct.

Her usual composure, calmness, and control.

In front of Lin Yun.

Shattered to the ground.

King Xuanyin sat back on the bed.

Closing her eyes to meditate again.

This time.

She did not review the timeline again.

Instead, she directly probed the depths of her own Divine Soul.

She calmed her heart.

Scanning her Sea of Consciousness bit by bit.

Those familiar corners.

Those memories that have accumulated for thousands of years.

Those Dao Heart Foundations that were as solid as a rock.

Then.

She saw it.

In the depths of her Divine Soul.

There was a faint, extremely faint fluctuation.

That fluctuation was very strange.

Very weak.

If she hadn't deliberately probed deeply.

She would never have noticed its existence.

It was like some kind of... catalyst.

After it existed.

All her perceptions regarding Lin Yun.

Were magnified several times over.

His voice.

His gaze.

His aura.

His touch.

Everything.

Would stir up ripples in her heart far exceeding what was normal.

King Xuanyin stared at that fluctuation.

Her expression was as gloomy as water.

She didn't know when it was planted.

Nor did she know how it was planted.

But she knew.

That was definitely not proof of her "developing feelings."

It was more like a... fixation catalyzed by some kind of power.

But.

Who could, without her noticing.

Plant this kind of thing in the depths of her Divine Soul?

She flipped through today's memories.

Everyone who had come into contact with her.

Everyone who had approached her.

Lin Yun.

Su Xin.

King Blood Axe.

King Feiyun.

Moli.

Ziyi.

And all the dignitaries in the great hall who offered toasts.

Not a single person.

Had the opportunity to tamper with her Divine Soul.

King Xuanyin's brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

She looked back at that strange fluctuation.

Silent for a long time.

Then.

She slowly opened her eyes.

Her eyes surging with shock, anger, confusion, and vigilance.

She walked to the window.

Looking at the sky gradually brightening outside the window.

Whispering to herself.

"Lin Yun..."

"Who exactly are you?"

In this question.

There was shock and doubt.

There was wariness.

There was confusion.

But in the end.

It also hid that sliver of feeling that she repeatedly denied.

Yet could never completely erase.

...

Thus, a long, long time passed.

King Xuanyin stood at the window.

Her brows tightly locked.

She closed her eyes again.

This time.

She did not probe roughly.

Instead, she sank all her spirit into the depths of her Divine Soul.

Starting to examine that strange fluctuation in minute detail.

A thread.

A wisp.

An inch.

A hair.

She used all means.

Probing repeatedly.

Testing repeatedly.

Once.

Twice.

Three times.

Don't know how long it had been.

King Xuanyin opened her eyes abruptly.

She was stunned.

Because she finally confirmed one thing...

That strange fluctuation in the depths of her Divine Soul.

Was actually her own.

It was her own Divine Soul aura.

It was her own Soul imprint.

It was her own Origin power.

King Xuanyin was dumbfounded.

She stood frozen in place.

Her eyes wide open.

Her mind was a blank slate.

How could it be her own?

That fluctuation was clearly so strange.

So strange that her first reaction was "someone tampered with it."

But checking over and over again.

Checking over a dozen times.

The result of every time was exactly the same.

It was hers.

Absolutely true.

Absolutely, undoubtedly true.

King Xuanyin took a deep breath.

Closing her eyes again.

Continuing to dig deep.

She didn't believe it.

There must be some detail she had overlooked.

So she dug another dozen times.

Turning every inch of her Divine Soul upside down.

Finally.

She found the root of the abnormality.

That fluctuation.

Although it was hers.

But within it.

It was mixed with a trace of an extremely weak external aura.

That aura was very, very faint.

So faint that if not for someone like her probing it thousands of times.

It would be impossible to detect.

But the source of that aura.

She recognized it.

That was Lin Yun's aura.

It was Lin Yun's life Origin.

King Xuanyin was shocked once again.

Her mind went blank again.

Lin Yun's life Origin?

How could it appear in her Divine Soul?
