"Leave the rest to me!" Chen Hao said. "However, Tang Jing, I need to borrow a bit of your Yang Energy in a moment."
"Sure!" Tang Jing answered with a light laugh.
Right at that moment, a stream of blue energy surged into the sky, then rapidly took off towards the outskirts of Y City like a shooting star.
"The Soul Devouring Beast is trying to flee!" Chen Hao exclaimed as he watched the blue energy stream.
"It was just being eaten by the Yin Soul bugs, and now it's very weak," Ye Yuqiao said. After speaking, she took out a Yellow Talisman, muttered a couple of spells, and flung it into the sky. The talisman transformed into a Tengu and pursued the direction the Soul Devouring Beast had fled. "Let's have this Tengu follow the Soul Devouring Beast for now, and deal with it later."
"Hmm!" Chen Hao nodded. He paused, then stepped forward, activating his Yin Yang Eyes in his left eye, and looked up. All he could see across the sky were numerous Primordial Spirits and Primordial Souls, shining with white light, making the sky look as dazzling as a star-filled summer night. He joked, "The night sky is so beautiful, I think we should just forget about letting these Primordial Spirits and Souls return to their bodies."
"Naughty!" Ye Yuqiao said from behind.
Chen Hao turned to look at Ye Yuqiao and smiled lightly. "Don't you think so? If it were just the two of us right now, how romantic it would be."
Hearing Chen Hao speak this way, Tang Jing's facial expression suddenly turned gloomy.
"You two great divinities!" Xie Xiaofeng, frowning, walked up behind Chen Hao, "I really am at a loss with you guys! Can we focus on the task at hand first? Once it's taken care of, I promise that the three of us will vanish immediately and not disturb your divine date!"
Chen Hao laughed heartily twice. Then, suddenly, his laughter ceased, his brows furrowed, his gaze became determined, and his expression turned stern.
He closed his eyes, brought his palms together, with the index fingers of both hands raised and joining together. After chanting a few indistinct spells, he suddenly opened his eyes, which flickered with a faint blue light, and shouted, "Summon Primordial Return Soul Great Spell!"
Before his words faded, millions of faint yellow lights burst forth from Chen Hao— he had forced all the Yang Energy in his body to the outside.
"Summon Primordial Return Soul Great Spell?" Xie Xiaofeng muttered to himself. He recalled that they had previously used the Summon Primordial Return Soul Spell taught by Chen Hao's grandfather to call back the Yin Souls of Ren Deshan and four other Onmyoji. "How come I've never seen Chen Hao use it before? Could it be that he only learned it recently?"
"Tang Jing!" Chen Hao called out Tang Jing's name, "Quick, lend me some Yang Energy!"
Tang Jing uttered a sound of acknowledgment, then walked behind Chen Hao, lightly striking his back with both palms, transferring her Yang Energy into Chen Hao's body. Since both Chen Hao and Tang Jing practiced the Return to Yang Spell from Tang Jing's family, their Yang Energy could merge without any rejection.
With the support of Tang Jing's Yang Energy, the Yang Energy radiating from Chen Hao shone even brighter.
"Yang Energy covers the heavens, Yin Qi enters the earth! Yang Energy changes the heavens, Yin Qi enters the earth!" Chen Hao loudly chanted. A few days ago, he had learned the content of the last chapter of the talismanic section in the Book of Yin and Yang Exorcism-the Summon Primordial Return Soul Great Spell. Compared to the Summon Primordial Return Soul Spell previously taught by his grandfather, this Great Spell did not require the preparation of any props, only requiring the spell caster to possess a vast amount of Yang Energy; moreover, the Great Spell was more powerful and could cover an entire area.
Not long after, the Yang Energy emanating from his body slowly rose a hundred meters up; then, flowing parallel to the ground, it moved towards the part of the sky where the Primordial Spirits and Souls appeared the most, eventually forming a gigantic hand of Yang Energy.
"Aah!" Chen Hao gritted his teeth and roared, as his face turned a bit pale from the depletion of Yang Energy.
"Hang in there a little longer!" Tang Jing said from behind him, her tone filled with worry and concern. After speaking, she injected even more Yang Energy into Chen Hao's body.
Soon a hand of Yang Energy, shimmering with golden light, was fully formed, covering both Tonghua Street and Qingshi Street.
Meanwhile, Chen Hao, barely able to keep himself upright, began to sway, his head covered in cold sweat. His teeth were chattering, making a clattering sound. He tried to recite the last spell, but couldn't summon the strength.
Suddenly, he was enveloped in a soft embrace, and a familiar scent wafted into his nose, instantly refreshing his spirit. He turned his head to the side and saw Ye Yuqiao hugging his waist from the side and resting her head on his shoulder.
Chen Hao's lips curved into a slight smile, thinking that this pain was nothing. He shook himself, his voice booming, "Yang Energy crushes down, Yin Qi disperses end!"
Following his command, the giant hand of Yang Energy in the sky descended like Tai Shan crashing down, pressing all the floating Primordial Spirits and Souls back towards the earth.
As the hand touched the ground, the Yang Energy that formed it dispersed violently, and Chen Hao passed out at that moment.
Ye Yuqiao and Tang Jing let out a simultaneous cry, each catching one of Chen Hao's arms from behind.
Seeing this, Xie Xiaofeng leaned over to Tang Chao next to him and whispered, "Do you think these three will end up in a complex emotional relationship?"
Tang Chao twisted his mouth bitterly and said, "I hope not. If they really do, I guess it will end up being my sister who is heartbroken."
"So what do you plan to do about it as her brother?"
"I owe my sister too much! For me, it's already a stroke of luck she didn't marry into the Li Family. As for her emotional matters, I'll leave it up to her," Tang Chao said.
Tang Chao and Xie Xiaofeng walked to the edge of the rooftop railing and looked down. They saw that among the people who had fainted due to having their Yin Souls sucked away by the Soul Devouring Beast, several were gradually waking up and getting up from the ground.
"This revival spell is much more powerful than the one we used last time!" Tang Chao remarked.
"But it consumes too much Yang Energy," Xie Xiaofeng turned and sighed as he looked at Chen Hao, his tone revealing a hint of concern. "I really don't know how many people in this world can squander Yang Energy as recklessly as him? By the way, which chapter of the 'Return to Yang Spell' has he cultivated up to?"
"It seems he just mastered the twentieth chapter today."
"The twentieth chapter, how powerful is that?" Xie Xiaofeng asked.
Tang Chao sighed before speaking, "It took my sister a full seven years to cultivate to the twentieth chapter, while I haven't managed to accomplish it to this day."
Xie Xiaofeng was flabbergasted.
The night was deep!
At Ye Yuqiao's home.
Chen Hao, who was lying in bed, was woken up by the noise outside the door. He slowly opened his eyes, and at that moment, Ye Yuqiao was sitting beside him, expressionless.
Looking at Ye Yuqiao's delicate profile, Chen Hao couldn't help but say, "Ye Yuqiao, how have you become prettier again?"
"You're awake!" Ye Yuqiao turned her head as she spoke.
"I feel so dizzy, my body is seriously lacking Yang Energy, pass me some quickly," he said.
Ye Yuqiao pursed her lips and said coldly, "Then I'll go call Tang Jing."
"Hey!" Chen Hao immediately sat up and grabbed Ye Yuqiao's hand. After spending some time together, he had come to understand her somewhat. In his view, Ye Yuqiao was outwardly cold but sensitive and delicate on the inside. "I just wanted you to hold my hand, why call Tang Jing over for that? Are you suggesting she should do this?"
Ye Yuqiao said with a stern face, "If you want, you can call her over, she'd probably agree."
"Haha!" Chen Hao burst into laughter, "Are you getting jealous again?"
Ye Yuqiao glanced at Chen Hao and frowned, "You're the one who's jealous!"
Chen Hao pulled Ye Yuqiao into his arms and then asked, "What's all that noise outside?"
"Your subordinates are causing trouble again," Ye Yuqiao explained. "They're worried that the Soul Devouring Beast will come back, and they want you to send Tang Jing to the Li Family."
"Ah!" Chen Hao sighed helplessly, then reached out and held Ye Yuqiao's hand tightly, seemingly unconcerned about the commotion outside.
After gazing into each other's eyes for a while, Ye Yuqiao reached out and pinched Chen Hao's cheek, saying, "I'll go use the Nether King's Power to seal the Soul Devouring Beast, so that your Tang Jing won't be threatened into going to the Li Family."
"You!" Chen Hao looked at Ye Yuqiao helplessly. "And you say you're not jealous!"
Ye Yuqiao snorted, then asked, "If given a choice, one is to use the Nether King's Power to seal Tang Jing, and the other is to send Tang Jing to the Li Family, which would you choose?"
