Do You Know How to Capture a Villain?

Ji Qingzhuo had just finished taking a bath and was slowly brushing her wet long hair. When the system said this, she froze.

She knows that it will take a long time for the system to increase the favorability of each level. She has been in Xuanyunzong for more than a year, and the system has only unlocked the first function to unlock the second function, and now it is far from unlocking the second function. How long has the first function been, is there a third function now?

Logically speaking, isn't the unlocking of favorability like cultivation, and it becomes more difficult to unlock each stage?

But she didn't know that this emotion is completely different from cultivation. Emotions are like a torrent that is about to collapse. At first, only sporadic stones fell, and then soon collapsed into an army, destroying the defenses of the heart.

Ji Qingzhuo stopped wiping her hair with her fingers, and she asked the system: "What's the new function?"

There was no fluctuating voice from the system: "The newly unlocked ability is tailored according to the host's current needs, but the host please pay attention, it is very dangerous."

"Danger?" Ji Qingzhuo repeated the system's warning, a little curious and a little scared.

The ability to unlock the system becomes stronger every time. If the killing intent perception at the beginning is just for self-protection, then spying on other people's information will be a little invasive, so Ji Qingzhuo generally does not use this ability.

So what ability is the system unlocked this time?

"Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the ability to temporarily manipulate other people's actions by looking at them." The system read this sentence in a dry tone.

If Ji Qingzhuo hadn't been subjected to the soul-controlling technique performed by the red airflow in the cultivation space, forgetting that she had manipulated the candle moth, then she must now doubt that this system is a pure prostitute master.

To describe what she knows as the ability to unlock it, this system is really too foolish.

However, Ji Qingzhuo had already forgotten that she had controlled Candle Moth in the Candle Palace. When she heard about this ability, her hand holding the small mirror in her hand froze.

This ability... sounds very evil. If she manipulates other people's actions, if she has evil thoughts in her heart and wants someone to die, will that person commit suicide obediently?

This is the ability to play with others, no wonder the system calls it evil.

The monks in the world of cultivating immortals are secretive about the existence of the erosion, so Ji Qingzhuo doesn't know that the most terrifying and iconic ability of the erosion is the soul control technique, but this does not prevent her from being afraid of this ability.

"It...is there any restriction?" Ji Qingzhuo's voice trembled, and she covered her face with the hot towel in her hand.

"There is no difference between soul and consciousness. Host, your consciousness is very powerful, so... there is no upper limit to this ability, but the stronger the opponent's mind and stronger consciousness, the control time will be shortened accordingly." System Introduction With this ability.

"You..." Ji Qingzhuo muttered. After a long time, the hot towel she threw on her face became cold before she came back to her senses, "Why did you suddenly unlock such a powerful ability for me?"

"Host, I am providing you with capabilities based on your current needs." The system fooled her well, "You and Shen Rongyu are in a very dangerous situation now, you want to protect Shen Rongyu, right?"

"Yes." Ji Qingzhuo admitted, it's not a secret, it's just that it's ridiculous for a weak person like her to claim to protect Shen Rongyu.

"You want to protect him, so I will give you the ability to protect him." The system said, "Our mission from the beginning is to attack him, isn't it?"

"He's dead, so what's the strategy?" the system said to Ji Qingzhuo.

"I know." Ji Qingzhuo replied.

She put the cold towel in her hand aside, fell on her back, lay on the bed, hugged the pillow, and covered her head tightly.

"But, don't you have the ability to be more...gentle?" Ji Qingzhuo asked the system in a low voice.

The red air flow was very successful for her soul control technique, because she really forgot that she had controlled the candle moth, and now she questioned the ability given by the system.

"Host, you have to understand your physical quality. No matter how you practice, you can't temper your meridians to the perfect state. Your body is really...very weak, and the aura you absorb is more to strengthen your body. Divine consciousness." The system's cold voice came, "After training, you can gain longevity, but in terms of physical and positive strength, you will never be able to surpass other monks of the same generation."

"This is what you are good at." The system gave a reasonable answer.

Ji Qingzhuo covered her head with a pillow and let herself sink into the darkness. After a long time, she accepted the fact that the system was right. She had practiced for so long, but she would still fall when the wind blows. How would she face the enemy head-on? ?

She understands that the system has given her great help. Facing the current situation, this ability to manipulate others can indeed help them out of danger at some point in the future.

"System, thank you." Ji Qingzhuo thanked the system by gripping the small mirror tightly.

She decided to calm down and accept this ability slowly, so she took off her outer shirt and wrapped herself in the blanket.

It seemed that this newly unlocked ability gave her great panic, and she hugged the magic weapon umbrella she had placed beside the bed, and stuffed it into the bed together, as if holding something like this could make her feel at ease.

At this time, Shen Rongyu was practicing swords outside the house. When Ji Qingzhuo picked up the umbrella, the red cloud mark on the back of his neck lit up again, and the extremely hot temperature burned his skin.

The Burial Snow Sword, which was struck straight, stopped under the lingering moonlight, and the forcefully stopped attack was withdrawn, shaking the edge of the sword, and the mirror-like sword body trembled, reflecting the light of the snow under the moon, making a soft front cry Voice.

He put his sword back into its sheath, knowing that Ji Qingzhuo couldn't hear what he was saying, so he called softly: "Zhuo Zhuo, don't move."

Shen Rongyu sighed softly, and continued to practice the sword, but the sword moves always brought a little lingering trembling.

Of course Ji Qingzhuo didn't receive this sentence, she even hugged the umbrella and turned over when she was huddled under the blanket.

She didn't dare to take out her umbrella because of the shadow before, so as not to expose her identity as a monk. Now that Meng Yaolan brought Meng Lian to Xuedu, she dared to stand in the middle of nowhere when the shadow temporarily receded. It's time to take out the umbrella and play with it.

She really... likes this umbrella very much, it seems to be an unreasonable affection, just like Shen Rongyu's unreasonable liking for Epiphyllum.

Ji Qingzhuo hugged the umbrella and woke up very late the next day. The ability that the system just unlocked last night was like a false dream, but it really existed.

She knew that she had this ability, but she didn't plan to use it until the critical moment.

Ji Qingzhuo didn't like looking at other people in the first place, let alone staring at others for a long time and manipulating their souls.

After she woke up, she deliberately chose a set of pale pink clothes to wear. The prettier colors are more in line with the winter atmosphere, as if warm colors can dispel the cold.

After the new year, winter is about to pass, the ice and snow on the river melt, and the dead trees will sprout new buds. Ji Qingzhuo prefers warmer seasons.

After getting dressed, she also replaced the pendant of pink crystal on Umbrella—she has been to the palace so many times, even the pendant she bought for Umbrella was changed for a round.

She carefully put the umbrella into her purse, but still felt a little sleepy, so she yawned, opened the door and walked out.

Shen Rongyu didn't sleep all night last night, and now he can pretend to be up all night - at this time, he stood behind the screen, took off the robe hanging on the truss, and put it on his body.

"Is Zhuo Zhuo awake?" He asked her.

"Yeah." Ji Qingzhuo narrowed her eyes and lowered her head, she didn't see Shen Rongyu getting dressed.

In fact, she has watched him get dressed many times, and the one she remembers most was on Baishui Island, when she caught him taking a bath, so he dressed slowly.

Later, every time she saw Shen Rongyu getting dressed, she could still think of that scene.

Her cheeks gradually turned red, but Shen Rongyu's movements were still very slow, her slender fingers hooked the gold chain on the brooch, and slowly arranged it.

"You still blush after meeting so many times?" Even if she lowered her head, Shen Rongyu could know that she was blushing, and Ji Qingzhuo's secret little emotions were too obvious in his eyes.

"Yeah." Ji Qingzhuo was still honest, and she admitted it again.

Shen Rongyu sighed lightly, and only said: "Eat."

The food sent by the palace last night was put in a special insulated food box, and it didn't cool down overnight, so it was still edible.

Ji Qingzhuo didn't mind whether the food was for the night, she ate whatever was available, she sat down with Shen Rongyu face to face, and began to eat breakfast.

She was thinking about her own affairs, and the matter of Candle Moth had to be resolved quickly, otherwise...Meng Yaolan would kill her sooner or later. Emperor Liang had a deal with Candle Moth, and it was impossible to keep this secret forever.

Shen Rongyu didn't eat breakfast, she only rested her chin on one hand, and just looked at Ji Qingzhuo quietly.

"Thinking about the candle moth?" he asked.

He was also a little disturbed by the secret room where Candle Moth hid in Candle Palace. He was not interested in his mother's story—he knew that his mother didn't want to stay in the palace, and she also had a relationship with someone outside the palace. There has been a correspondence between individuals.

But so what, then they all died.

"Yeah." Ji Qingzhuo nodded, "Miss Meng didn't make a direct move now because this is the palace of Emperor Liang, and she thought he hadn't made a deal with Candle Moth yet."

"So, don't let her discover the trading formation in Candle Palace." Ji Qingzhuo whispered, chewing on the tender fish in his mouth.

"She will still come to the palace." Shen Rongyu said with narrowed eyes, "We are thinking of going to the Candle Palace to check, and she will do the same."

"I..." Ji Qingzhuo seemed to have made up his mind, and raised his head, "I'll go watch near the Candle Palace and try to stop her."

Shen Rongyu also had his own plan today, he nodded in response: "But I can't go with you in the next few days."

"I'll go by myself." Ji Qingzhuo still remembered that this was her own task, and Shen Rongyu could no longer take her with her.

"Take well the spell I gave you." Shen Rongyu explained.

"Yeah." Ji Qingzhuo lowered his head, carefully collected the leftover rice in the bowl, and ate it up with his lips pursed.

Having explained this, she temporarily separated from Shen Rongyu.

Ji Qingzhuo knew clearly that she couldn't rely on Shen Rongyu all the time, and when the thought "she wants to protect him" arose in her heart, she couldn't continue to live with her previous lifestyle.

She is a person who lives for others and works hard for others.

And the promise she had made would never be broken once.
