PFC Chapter 57 Strange Phenomenon from the Sky
Chapter 57 Strange Phenomenon from the Sky
Huan Yuechu looked around mysteriously, "The price is to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the world, cultivate alone, and endure long periods of solitude."
Everyone was astonished, never expecting such a reason behind it.
Chongyang muttered to herself, "So that's how it is. Sister Yuechu is really amazing."
Huan Yuechu smiled and said, "There are many strange things in this world. Today I've broadened your horizons." After saying that, she lay back in the rocking chair and closed her eyes to rest.
Wen Xingyu looked at everyone with a mocking expression, as if she were looking at a group of incredibly foolish clowns.
She shook her head slightly, a mocking smile playing on her lips, and said, "Look at you all, you're all like you're possessed by ghosts! I don't know whether to call you naive or stupid? To believe such absurd lies, you can only fool those innocent children!"
After saying this, she covered her mouth with her hand as if she had heard an extremely funny joke and laughed out loud.
The laughter was crisp and melodious, but at this moment it sounded sarcastic, causing those present to exchange bewildered glances and their faces to turn very ugly.
Upon hearing Wen Xingyu's words, Huan Yuechu slowly opened her eyes and looked at her with a half-smile, "Little Wen, it seems you don't believe what I'm saying!"
Wen Xingyu crossed her arms and said dismissively, "Of course I don't believe it. How could something that defies common sense be true?"
Huan Yuechu sighed softly, "Alas, there are always many people in this world who only believe what they see, but they don't know how vast this world is, far beyond their imagination." As she spoke, Huan Yuechu raised her hand and waved it gently.
In an instant, the surrounding scenery changed. The originally ordinary inn courtyard became a fairyland shrouded in clouds and mist, with exotic flowers and rare herbs everywhere, and fairy butterflies fluttering around with shimmering light.
Everyone stared in disbelief, and Wen Xingyu was also stunned, her face showing shock.
Huan Yuechu stood up and strolled among the flowers. She glanced back at Wen Xingyu casually and said, "Now, do you still think I'm lying?"
Wen Xingyu was speechless for a long time before she came to her senses. "Sister Yuechu, I'm sorry, I was ignorant."
Huan Yuechu smiled and waved her hand gently, saying slowly, "It's alright. How could I possibly argue with a junior like you?"
Her calm and composed demeanor suggested that nothing in this world could move her.
At this moment, everyone present was deeply immersed in that dreamlike scene, unable to extricate themselves.
Their eyes were glazed over, their thoughts drifting, completely captivated by the wondrous sight before them.
Just then, a crisp snap of fingers rang out! Like a rooster crowing at dawn breaking the silence of the night, it instantly jolted everyone awake from their reverie.
Then, a jaw-dropping scene unfolded—everything that was originally vibrant, colorful, and beautiful vanished in the blink of an eye!
Everyone was stunned. Before they could recover, a clear, cold voice rang out, "How was my magic trick today?" The speaker was none other than Huan Yuechu, who had just performed the magical illusion.
At this moment, she lay on the rocking chair, a confident and proud smile on her face, seemingly quite satisfied with the amazing skills she had just displayed.
Chongyang stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief. He shook his head vigorously, as if trying to shake the scene he had just witnessed out of his mind.
He muttered to himself, "How could this be? It can't be..."
After a while, he finally came to his senses, turned his head, stared straight at me sitting in the rocking chair next to him, and asked in a slightly trembling voice, "Sister Yuechu, was what just happened really just an illusion?"
At this moment, I am lying comfortably on that old but incredibly comfortable rocking chair with my eyes closed, gently swaying my body with its slight movement.
Upon hearing Chongyang's question, the corners of my mouth turned up slightly, revealing a faint smile.
But she still didn't open her eyes, and only spoke slowly in a soft, almost inaudible voice, "Truth and falsehood, falsehood and truth, the things in this world are inherently difficult to distinguish, so why insist on clinging to a single truth? Sometimes, being too serious will only lead to pain and confusion..."
After saying that, I fell silent and continued to enjoy the peace and tranquility.
At this moment, everyone was filled with a myriad of thoughts, each with its own unique perspective.
Some people firmly believe this, while others think it's utterly absurd! Take Lu Yun for example, deep down he always felt that Huan Yuechu was just putting on a show for everyone.
But he forgot who had saved him from danger several times. No amount of talking will change someone with prejudiced views.
However, Wen Xingyu, whose thoughts were completely different from Lu Yun's, was filled with admiration for Huan Yuechu.
It should be noted that Wen Xingyu herself is someone who greatly admires strength, and coupled with her own special abilities, when she met the powerful and mysterious Huan Yuechu, she felt a sense of awe and respect.
Not to mention what unexpected things might happen next...
Just then, a gentle breeze blew by, bringing a touch of coolness and ruffling a strand of my hair.
I slowly opened my eyes, my gaze calm as still water, and surveyed everyone present.
"Whether you believe it or not, it doesn't matter." My voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears.
Lu Yun's patience reached its limit, and he couldn't help but sneer, "Hmph, pretending to be a god..." Chongyang quickly covered Lu Yun's mouth.
Chongyang was utterly shocked, never expecting Lu Yun to make such a sarcastic remark about Huan Yuechu.
I ignored him and looked at Wen Xingyu instead. "If you cultivate your special ability properly, you will surely achieve great things in the future." Wen Xingyu nodded, flattered.
Suddenly, dark clouds filled the sky, and the originally clear weather instantly turned gloomy and oppressive.
Everyone looked panicked.
I calmly stood up and walked to the center of the courtyard.
A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, followed by a deafening roar of thunder.
"This is definitely an anomaly! And I'm certain that this matter is inextricably linked to her!" Lu Yun's face turned bright red as he struggled to break free from Chongyang's grip on his arm, shouting at the top of his lungs.
At this moment, he seemed to have lost his mind, his eyes flashing with a light that was both angry and fearful.
Chongyang, on the other hand, looked grave and held Lu Yun tightly, preventing him from acting impulsively.
Those around were stunned by this sudden scene, casting puzzled and surprised glances at them.
I raised my hands, chanting incantations, and a soft light emanated from my hands, shooting towards the dark clouds in the sky.
In an instant, the dark clouds gradually dispersed, and the sunlight shone down again.
Everyone stared at me in astonishment, and those who had previously doubted me now looked at me with a hint of awe.
I turned and walked back to the rocking chair, saying softly, "Don't make a fuss, it's just a little incident." We were one step closer to completing the task.
