Chapter 981: Xiaosuisui No. 862 kicked Prince Yu like a ball.

Ji Youyuan swept his gaze around upon hearing the words and saw the expressions on the people’s faces, then replied softly, "Have you figured out something?"

Suisui nodded, "They seem like assimilated people, yet not quite!"

"It’s the loss of the Divine Soul. They all practiced Xun Heng’s cultivation technique, and after reaching a certain level of power, Prince Yu absorbed their power and took part of their Divine Soul, keeping them under his control in Prince Yu’s Mansion!"

"Absorbing part of the Divine Soul, why does this cultivation technique sound even more evil than Xun Heng’s technique?"

Hearing this, Suisui widened her eyes, and Ji Youyuan’s breathing became heavy, and his steps involuntarily stopped.

"This is indeed Xun Heng’s cultivation technique, something Xun Heng figured out after being imprisoned beneath the nine-story tower for thousands of years. Inside, he couldn’t collect the Resentful Qi of dead souls, so after Xunyang destroyed the entrance of the surge passage, he created disturbances to lure living people in. Those caught in Xun Heng’s eyes would be accepted as disciples and taught the cultivation technique to be used by him; those he deemed unworthy would be killed by a fragment of Divine Sense left outside by Xunyang, and Xun Heng would directly absorb the Resentful Qi of the resentful spirits.

Eventually, he found a satisfactory disciple, who was Prince Yu. After mastering the technique, Prince Yu then lured and killed those who had previously learned Xun Heng’s cultivation technique, taking their souls and resentment, enhancing his own power.

These people were all notable figures, but at that time, his influence was not obvious. He feared causing disturbances that would be detrimental to him, so he merely took half of their Divine Souls, turning them into these living dead!"

Princess Lianchun’s explanation enlightened Suisui and Ji Youyuan.

Ji Youyuan: "So that’s how it is. This cultivation technique is truly harmful, no wonder Ancestor Zhou went to such great lengths to seal it away back then!"

Princess Lianchun stopped speaking and led Ji Youyuan and Suisui toward the back Great Hall.

This is the Main Hall of Prince Yu’s Mansion, usually inaccessible. Everyone in Prince Yu’s Mansion is lacking in Divine Soul, instinctively fearing the aura around Prince Yu, so as long as Prince Yu is in the mansion, no one comes near the Main Hall.

"Now, it’s time to end all of this!"

Princess Lianchun bent down and drew a dagger from her boot, and the doors of the Great Hall opened automatically.

Prince Yu walked out slowly from inside, his hands clasped behind his back.

"Sect Leader Ji! Great Han Princess! How did you end up together?"

Prince Yu, puzzled, looked at Ji Youyuan, then at Princess Lianchun.

Suddenly his brows furrowed, "You’ve regained your Divine Consciousness! How is this possible?"

Princess Lianchun snorted coldly at this, "Isn’t Prince Yu disappointed that I’ve recovered my Divine Consciousness?

Back then, you used so much cunning and trickery, first having someone plant a Gu Insect in me, then using a fragment of Divine Sense severed by Xunyang to create the illusion that people from the Nanjiang royal court abducted me. Finally, without anyone knowing, you brought me into the Xiling Imperial Palace and erased all traces of me!

You controlled me, made me commit countless acts of heinous crimes.

Today, I must settle these scores with you one way or another!"

After saying this, Princess Lianchun rushed forward to stab Prince Yu.

Who is Prince Yu? He’s someone who has cultivated evil techniques, his hands clenched into fists, and the black Qi on his fists wrapped around him tightly.

He punched in the direction of Princess Lianchun, and in an instant, Princess Lianchun was sent flying several feet away!

Suisui saw this and cried out anxiously, "Aunt!"

Then, a trace of anger appeared in her little eyes, and she clenched her small fists to punch Prince Yu.

Prince Yu didn’t even take her seriously.

Just a little kid, what could she do to him?

Though last time at the Military Camp, this little kid and her uncle indeed posed a threat to him. But at that time, the circumstances were inappropriate, and he didn’t want to cause a big commotion in the camp, fearing it would ruin his plans, so he escaped.

But now, they even dared to chase him to Xiling, and came to Xijing, reaching his Prince Yu’s Mansion, so don’t blame him.

This little kid seemed agile, so her Divine Soul must provide him with a great experience!

With this thought, he lightly raised his hand, intending to catch the little kid’s fist with his right palm!
