The Li family was wiped out more than a month ago.

On the surface, the sky over Dongyang has returned to tranquility!

The Lin and Zhu families formed an alliance, combining their strengths. The high-end health and wellness center project continued, and it looked like it was about to be completed. Moreover, with the resounding name of "the reclusive divine doctor of Nirvana Mountain," people flocked to the Lin family to seek medical advice and curry favor. Among the four powerful families—Li Mie, Qin Shang, and Zhao Suo—the Lin family was the most prominent, and it was already becoming the leading business family in Dongyang!

Everything is moving in a positive direction...

But only he himself knew that beneath the seemingly calm surface of the water, the deadly calamity was growing more and more menacing each day.

That night, it flared up again.

Not long after midnight, Ye Feng sat cross-legged in a guest room, cultivating and regulating his breathing. Without any warning, the death energy in his chest broke free from its restraints once again, and began to frantically attack him.

This time, it was fiercer and more urgent than ever before.

The death energy swirling around his meridians, like a venomous snake that had been thoroughly enraged, bared its fangs and claws, frantically devouring his life force.

Ye Feng's face turned pale instantly, cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and a metallic taste rose in his mouth, which he swallowed hard. His limbs felt as if they had been soaked in icy water, or as if they had been roasted over a flame. His True Qi of the Devas was starting to feel out of control under the stimulation of this deathly aura, and the backlash was far beyond his expectations.

He circulated his true energy to suppress it, but he only managed to suppress it to a certain extent. The death energy still refused to give in and even became stronger.

wrong!

His heart skipped a beat. This attack lasted a full three days shorter than the last one, and the backlash was far more dangerous than before. The death calamity was rapidly intensifying...

No, that won't work!

His brows furrowed deeply; he couldn't suppress it on his own.

Almost at the same moment, the door to the room opened gently, and Lin Yuqing, dressed in clothes, walked in carrying a basin of hot water. Ever since she discovered their secret, she would wake up inexplicably whenever his period was about to start, as if the two of them were bound together by fate.

"Is it about to flare up again?" She quickly went over, and her heart clenched when she saw his pale face.

"Okay!" Ye Feng stopped pretending and stretched out his hand, "Help me suppress that breath."

Without saying a word, Lin Yuqing sat down next to him and then handed her hand to Ye Feng.

Ye Feng placed three fingers on her wrist, closed his eyes, and channeled a stream of true energy into her, causing the yin energy hidden within her blood to circulate.

At that moment, a chilling, heavy coldness flowed out gently, swirling and merging with the energy he channeled into his wrists. A force of strength and a force of gentleness flowed silently between their wrists!

The churning death energy in his chest was gradually suppressed by this extreme yin energy.

This time, however, it was extremely difficult!

Normally, it would only take a cup of tea to suppress the deathly aura, but tonight it took almost half a day for Ye Feng to stop the cold sweat on his forehead and for the surging deathly aura to subside.

Moreover, Lin Yuqing was also left pale and weak from the intense yin energy. Transferring qi to her also caused her some strain, and the more times she was affected, the more difficult it became for her.

"Alright." Ye Feng slowly released his grip and let out a long breath, but there was no sign of relief in his eyes. Instead, they became deep and dark, as if they could hold water.

"What's wrong with you?" Lin Yuqing noticed his unusual behavior. "What's wrong...is something not right?"

Ye Feng pondered for a moment, then decided not to lie to her.

"This tribulation is occurring at increasingly faster intervals," he said, emphasizing each word. "Last time, half an hour was enough, but this time it's taken almost half a day. If this continues, it won't be long before your vital yin is completely drained, and you won't be able to suppress it."

Lin Yuqing's face instantly turned pale: "Then what do we do?!"

"This is only a temporary solution; it can suppress the problem and delay it." Ye Feng looked at the cold moon outside the window, his eyes seemingly distant. "To truly resolve this calamity, we need to find a way to 'cure' it completely."

Where is that method?

Ye Feng fell silent.

After a long pause, he finally uttered the three words "Nirvana Mountain," adding, "The answer is very likely on my mountain."

His master had told him that he would face a "death calamity in six months, requiring him to seek the true Yin to cross over," but he had never mentioned what to do about the onset of this cycle after the initial explosion. Now that he thought about it, he realized that his master's perpetually enigmatic face might have concealed even more secrets than his own.

Moreover, that night at Deer Cry Manor, the medical luminary He Huai-ren had secretly told him: "A pure Yang body that is so extremely strong and intense is a once-in-a-millennium occurrence; it must not be an ordinary innate constitution, and there must be something unknown behind it." With this accelerated cycle, those words felt like a thorn piercing his heart, leaving him unable to sit or stand still.

However, Nirvana Mountain is hundreds of miles away, and his master has vanished without a trace, so there is still no glimmer of hope on the road to a complete cure.

"Time is running out," Ye Feng laughed self-deprecatingly. "After the first explosion, I thought I could finally catch my breath, but who knew it would be another death knell!"

Lin Yuqing grasped his hand. Her eyes, always clear and bright, were filled with determination this time: "No matter where the method is, I'll go with you to find it. Our lives are intertwined. Do you really want to leave me behind?"

Ye Feng felt a surge of warmth in his heart as he looked at her, and reached out to hold her hands tightly.

At this heartwarming moment, his old cell phone, which was on the table, suddenly trembled.

"There's a text message."

An unfamiliar phone number.

He picked up his phone, glanced at the short line of text on it, and his gaze suddenly turned cold...

"Dr. Ye, I heard that your calamity has been quite bad lately. Dongyang is about to undergo a major change. You'd better prepare as soon as possible."

"A friend."

Ye Feng looked at this line of text, and his fingers involuntarily clenched.

The other party actually knew that he had come carrying a death calamity, and even knew that his death calamity "has not been very good lately" and that the cycle had worsened. He had only told Lin Yuqing about this tonight.

How did the information get out so quickly?

Unless, of course, the other person's eyes are fixed on him closer and deeper than he imagined.

"Who sent this?" Lin Yuqing leaned closer and, upon seeing the message, her expression changed.

"I don't know." Ye Feng turned the phone face down, his eyes icy cold. "But in the entire Dongyang, there's probably only one person who could say 'Dongyang is about to change.'"

Lin Yuqing's breath hitched slightly: "Young Master Hui... Zhao Hui?"

Ye Feng didn't speak, but looked out the window at the slowly sinking cold moon, his gaze becoming extremely chilling.

This is a challenge!

The guy who was hiding deepest in every game actually stepped forward and wanted to have a personal showdown with me!
