Reborn as a True Heiress and Becomes a Boss

Chapter 173 Absorbing Purple Qi
"When did you discover that she had the habit of meditating in front of the sun? Do you remember how she positioned her fingers?" Yang Nianqing asked curiously.

Zhang Meixin recalled for a moment and said, "About a week ago, my hand looked just like in the movies." Zhang Meixin gestured, placing her thumb on the second joint of her middle finger.

Could it be what they're thinking? A ghost like her daring to meditate and absorb purple energy in front of the sun!

Everything in the world is interconnected and mutually restraining. Even in this degenerate age, each race has its own cultivation methods and taboos. All things are divided into Yin and Yang, and the key is to maintain a balance between Yin and Yang in order to achieve success in cultivation. Humans belong to Yang, and the most taboo thing is an excess of Yin energy in the body. Except for those with special cultivation methods, an imbalance of Yin and Yang can cause serious damage to one's vital energy or even the complete destruction of one's cultivation. If an ordinary person has too much Yin energy compared to Yang energy, they will be plagued by illness and their body will weaken rapidly.

Just like the many ghost stories circulating in China, ghosts haunt the living. Even if the ghosts don't want to harm people, they will instinctively absorb the yang energy of living beings because of the yang energy they have lost. They cannot control this. In particular, humans are the most intelligent of all beings, and the yang energy and essence of humans are also good things for ghosts to cultivate.

Living people lose their yang energy and absorb too much yin energy from ghosts, causing their bodies to gradually weaken and eventually die. Therefore, in many folk tales, the love between humans and ghosts is never truly over, and there are no happy endings. This is why there is the saying that humans and ghosts are destined to be apart.

Ghosts belong to Yin. Although some ghosts need Yang energy to cultivate, that is limited to the Yang energy of living beings. Ghosts are inherently Yin and evil. The Yang energy of living beings contains essence, which can be used by ghosts to cultivate Yin energy and ghost energy. In addition to this method, ghosts can also absorb the Yin energy of the moon to cultivate.

However, the sun itself is an extremely yang and intense thing. The first ray of light that appears in the sky when the sun rises is what people call purple aura. Hence the saying that purple aura comes from the east. Purple aura is auspicious and has the effect of restraining evil spirits. Not to mention, this first ray of light in the sky is such an intense yang energy for ghosts. As spirits, they simply cannot withstand it, let alone absorb it.

Therefore, there is a saying that humans absorb purple energy and ghosts absorb moonlight.

Although she has learned that ghosts nowadays are not as afraid of the sun as Gu Lang said, the fact that they dare to cultivate in the sun completely violates the cultivation rules of ghosts.

This female ghost can actually absorb the purple energy of heaven and earth to cultivate. This is something that has never been heard of or seen since ancient times. If she were a demon, that would be one thing, since demons cultivate in a more diverse way and can use both yin and yang energies. But judging from the short time just now, she is undoubtedly a ghost, and a fierce ghost with a lot of evil energy. How can she use the purple energy to cultivate? Even if it is a peach blossom evil, it shouldn't be possible.

They both saw doubt in each other's eyes.

"Qingqing doesn't know either?" Mo Mo asked in surprise.

Yang Nianqing nodded and said, "I only saw them briefly, so I can't tell anything. This Peach Blossom Demon is definitely a mortal enemy, but that man isn't innocent either. We don't need to concern ourselves with their grudges."

"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? What happened to that woman?" Fan Meini asked, puzzled.

Upon hearing Fan Meini speak, Fan Chaohua glanced at the psychic glasses in his hand and quickly handed them to Fan Meini, saying, "Nini, this is a gift your sister-in-law prepared for you. Keep it safe!"

Fan Meini picked it up and looked at it, saying, "It's quite nice, thank you, sister-in-law."

Seeing that Fan Meini had already put on her sunglasses, Fan Chaohua laughed and said, "Take good care of her. Your sister-in-law worked hard to make this. It's made with a spirit stone and can see the spirits of the dead. Exciting, isn't it!"

Fan Meini paused in her act of raising her glasses; this seemed a bit too shocking. "I just saw through these glasses that the woman who greeted you earlier has been possessed! The body has two faces, and the female ghost's face was a bloody mess, terrifying to the core. Honey, Meini, if you see her again, stay away from her. She's here to take revenge on that man; she's a very malevolent ghost!" Fan Chaohua warned the two of them.

Zhang Meixin's eyes widened in surprise. It looked like an ordinary human being, how could it be a ghost!
Fan Meini stared at him in shock. If that were really the case, then her sister-in-law was incredibly amazing! The glasses she made could actually help someone gain the ability to see ghosts!
Seeing that Fan Meini was a little scared, Yang Nianqing smiled and said, "Don't be afraid. Your superpower is very special. It can hurt spirits. It's very powerful. It's just that your superpower is still a bit weak since you just awakened it. You can't control it well yet. I'll teach you how to cultivate it. In the future, if you encounter ghosts or monsters, you will have the ability to protect yourself. It won't be like today's situation."

Fan Meini's eyes lit up. She never wanted to experience the despair she had felt today again. She both admired and envied Yang Nianqing's abilities. Fan Meini hugged Yang Nianqing and excitedly stomped her feet. "Really? Sister-in-law, you're so wonderful!"

Seeing this, Zhang Meixin quickly slapped her, "You brat, be careful, don't hurt your sister-in-law!"

Fan Meini released Yang Nianqing and stuck out her tongue.

Yang Nianqing smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm not that fragile."

Zhang Meixin tidied Yang Nianqing's bangs. The more she looked at Yang Nianqing, the more she liked her. Her son used to hate women so much, it turned out that their fate was not together. Zhang Meixin smiled and said, "That's good, let's go in."

Yang Nianqing nodded with a blush, feeling a warmth in her heart. Ah Chen's mother was so gentle.

The female ghost led Shen Hongxin to a villa. Shen Hongxin straightened his clothes and asked the female ghost, "How's the baby?"

The female ghost smiled and nodded, saying, "Very handsome! It's not like I've never seen you before. Why are you dressed like this?"

Shen Hongxin smiled and kissed her cheek. "This time I'm here to propose to your parents, so naturally I need to dress up. Our parents will meet in a few days. Let's go in."

The female ghost nodded, and Shen Hongxin walked ahead, holding her hand. However, the female ghost's expression changed instantly behind him. She looked at his back with icy coldness, and the violence in her eyes formed a vortex, as if she wanted to pull him in. The female ghost smiled cruelly, looked at Shen Hongxin, and then looked at the villa. She said silently: None of you will escape!
A middle-aged woman opened the door and saw the two of them. She quickly smiled and said, "Lili, you're here. Come in quickly."

Shen Hongxin handed her the things in his hand and said, "Aunt Yun, these are gifts for you."

Xia Yun took the things and handed them to the nanny, Sister Li, saying, "Why did Hong Xin buy any more gifts? It's not like it's the first time he's come back. Come in quickly!"

Shen Hongxin nodded and approached his home.

The female ghost should probably be called Qiu Li now. Qiu Li followed behind the two of them and stopped in front of a large fish tank that was obviously newly placed.

Qiu Li lay sprawled in front of the fish tank, grinning menacingly. "What good are feng shui fish! They're supposed to ward off evil! Go ahead and ward me off then!"
