The sea surface at dusk was even more spectacular.

The deep blue waters reflected the fiery red sunset, dreamlike and fantastical.

At that far horizon where the gaze reached, where the red light mingled with the deep blue, a curtain of light lood like a portal through ti, quiet and eerie.

On the balcony, Lu Xiao still maintained the posture he had started with.

Only his spirit was visibly wilted.

He still could not answer the question posed by Liuli Hong.

You are only the you of now, you cannot beco the you of later, the you of the future.

Therefore, even if the current self swears not to kill the innocent for power, it is ultimately unpredictable later on.

Human nature is unfathomable and incalculable.

No one can guarantee that they will always stick to their original intentions, always maintain their bottom line.

Especially when constantly followed by great temptations, your confidence in yourself is actually not reliable.

"Lu Xiao! Is this how you act as a ntor? I almost died, do you know that!"

"What are you doing! Just abandoning the boat, are you kidding !"

"Is this the shortcut you talked about? A shortcut to death, perhaps!"

Yan Yun, soaking wet and shivering madly, had sohow managed to stand in front of Lu Xiao again, denouncing him while shakily pouring herself so hot tea.

Lu Xiao finally ca to his senses at this mont, his gaze on Yan Yun filled with a hint of surprise.

She actually made it up here by herself.

Though it took a bit longer, it was still quite impressive.

As for how Yan Yun managed to climb up, that was not important.

"This path is just like this, as I have told you."

"Of course, it’s not too late to regret it now."

"Or else, just give up," Lu Xiao said to Yan Yun, his tone calm and serious.

He truly hoped that Yan Yun would not continue, as he himself had no confidence.

"Impossible," Yan Yun shook her head, "I have already started, there’s no reason to give up. What’s next? Back into the sea?"

Lu Xiao was not surprised by Yan Yun’s choice; it was exactly the sa as his own years ago.

"Jumping into the sea is no longer necessary, I’ve thought about it, the upcoming tasks will undergo so adjustnts," Lu Xiao said, pursing his lips.

Since this path would eventually face great temptations and stare into the terrifying Abyss.

Then... let Yan Yun experience temptation and the Abyss beforehand.

"Are there fishing rods on the cruise ship?" Lu Xiao asked.

"Yes."

"Go get two fishing rods, then wait for by the life raft."

"Okay!" Yan Yun didn’t ask why, she nodded and left Lu Xiao’s room.

Half an hour later, Lu Xiao and Yan Yun were sitting on a life raft, which was tied to the cruise ship with ropes at its rear end.

"Let’s start," Lu Xiao pointed at the sea, and then began fishing.

Yan Yun, although not understanding what Lu Xiao was up to, also cast her bait into the sea.

Clearly, Yan Yun’s fishing skills were sowhat better than Lu Xiao’s; in less than ten minutes, the first fish was hauled onto the life raft by Yan Yun.

The fish wasn’t big, roughly seven to ten pounds.

Lu Xiao didn’t recognize the species; it looked a bit dumb with its big head.

"Kill it," Lu Xiao said indifferently as Yan Yun removed the hook from the fish’s mouth.

Yan Yun: ???

Kill it? Now?

To directly kill it after catching it and then eat sashimi?

That wasn’t entirely out of the question.

Yan Yun nodded and then drew a dagger from her waist.

"Don’t use the knife, strangle it, then throw it back into the sea," Lu Xiao looked at Yan Yun, his eyes cold.

Yan Yun paused for two seconds, her pretty face turning angry.

"Are you crazy, I thought you wanted to eat sashimi, why kill it if you’re not going to eat it?!" Yan Yun was really angry, fishing, killing fish, and eating fish she could accept.

But what was Lu Xiao making her do? To fish, then kill the fish.

To kill without eating, to kill for the sake of killing.

What’s the difference from being a psychopath?

"So, are you going to give up?"

At Lu Xiao’s words, Yan Yun’s muscles twitched at the corners of her eyes. Not this sentence again! Not this sentence again!

"I just don’t understand, what does killing fish have to do with cultivating!" Although Yan Yun muttered, she still did as Lu Xiao said, pinched the fish in her hand to death, and threw it into the sea.

Lu Xiao did not answer Yan Yun and focused on fishing.

Soon, Lu Xiao also caught up a fish, a grouper covered in black spines.

"Kill it, throw it into the sea." After taking the fish off, Lu Xiao casually handed it to Yan Yun.

Yan Yun gritted her teeth, but this ti, she didn’t grumble, picked up the grouper, pinched it to death quickly, and threw it into the sea.

Ti passed bit by bit, and the darkness of night was gradually illuminated by the morning sunlight.

On the life raft, Yan Yun’s eyes were sowhat bloodshot.

They had fished all night and killed fish all night.

As for exactly how many she had killed, she had lost count, but it was a lot... a lot...

Regardless of size, as long as it was caught, it was killed without exception.

"How long do we need to fish?" Yan Yun yawned and looked at Lu Xiao.

"Until I think it’s enough."

"Oh."

Three days later, on the life raft, Yan Yun emotionlessly pinched a fish to death and then flung it into the sea as if throwing away trash.

She didn’t know how long this fishing and killing trip would last, she only knew she had beco completely numb.

Of course, she was also dying of hunger and thirst.

Three days with nothing to eat, let alone water to drink.

It rained yesterday, and she sipped a few mouthfuls of rainwater.

"Alright, ti to get on the ship." Lu Xiao suddenly got up, then lifted Yan Yun and jumped onto the passenger ship.

"Feel your Inner Qi." As soon as they got on the ship, Lu Xiao said to Yan Yun.

Yan Yun hesitated slightly, then imdiately began to check.

"Master, so much! It has increased so much!" Soon, Yan Yun beca excited, almost instantly wiping out her previous fatigue and weariness.

She hadn’t expected that in just three days, her Inner Qi could improve so much.

Fishing and killing fish actually worked.

"So, don’t doubt , now you can go rest. At seven o’clock tonight, co see ," Lu Xiao said, then walked away without another word.

The rapid growth of Yan Yun’s Inner Qi certainly had nothing to do with fishing, it was because he had constantly influenced her with his Inner Qi over these three days to achieve this effect.

Lu Xiao had just returned to his room when he saw Liuli Hong on the balcony.

"Lu Xiao, do you know what you are doing?!" Liuli Hong’s tone was filled with so anger.

He had watched everything Lu Xiao had Yan Yun do these past three days.

Just crazy fishing and then having Yan Yun kill fish without any reasons.

He watched as Yan Yun went from initial refusal, to struggling executions, and finally to cold-blooded numbness.

Others might not know Lu Xiao’s intentions, but Liuli Hong, who had lived for so many years, could clearly see.

Lu Xiao was cultivating Yan Yun’s killing intent.

What’s more fatal was that the young man was constantly releasing Inner Qi over these three days, influencing Yan Yun, causing her Inner Qi level to soar rapidly.

This would give Yan Yun a psychological suggestion, which is that killing can make one’s power grow.

"I have my asures."

"What asures do you have, didn’t you see Yan Yun’s look just now? A killing intent rampant, wildly cold."

"If you continue this, she will disregard life, disregard everything, and she’ll fall into the Abyss, viewing people as nothing more than dirt!" Liuli Hong shouted angrily.

Honestly, he had never thought Lu Xiao would be so reckless.

Yan Yun was such a fine girl, with character, persistence, justice, and chivalry.

This was clearly Lu Xiao destroying her.

"That’s her matter."

"But that’s what you taught, what you caused," Liuli Hong suddenly stood up, breathing rapidly.

Lu Xiao had started to go off track seriously, no, it was a major deviation.

If he didn’t intervene now, the young man was likely to really head down the wrong path.
