Gu Shen closed the door.
He took a deep breath and told himself not to be so nervous. Then he went to the table and sat down. Unlike when he treated the mass insomnia earlier, the status of this woman in front of him was too important, and he had to be fully alert.
“Lu Nanzhi.” Madam sat on a chair with her legs crossed, looking elegant and graceful. Seeing Gu Shen’s hesitant expression of wanting to speak but not knowing what to say, she thoughtfully said in a soft voice, “You can call
Madam.”
“Madam…”
Lu Nanzhi’s voice had a peculiar soothing effect, calming Gu Shen’s nerves.
“Please forgive
for staring at you,” he apologized and summoned his slender Blazing Fire.
Buzz!
In the silent enclosed room, the mont the Blazing Fire appeared, the entire world changed color. Gu Shen gazed intently at the woman in front of him. She didn’t have any transcendental aura, but there was a faint, translucent layer of transcendental essence flowing around her. Her rings, earrings, necklace—almost every piece of jewelry she wore—contained extrely powerful transcendental power.
From what the Blazing Fire could see, Madam didn’t seem to be a transcendent.
But Gu Shen had a vague premonition in his heart. If he harbored any ill intentions, just activating one of these sealed objects would be enough to take him down in an instant!
With such powerful sealed objects protecting her, how could transcendental power corrode her?
He took a closer look.
His expression grew grim.
Under the guidance of the Blazing Fire, he felt a very, very tiny line between Madam’s eyebrows. This tiny line couldn’t be seen with the naked eye after being enhanced by the Blazing Fire, and he could only sense its existence through a mysterious, unseen induction.
He could feel it.
But he couldn’t see it.
That tiny line was tightly stretched, pulling at the entire mind, sowhat like… the curse imprint of the Solemn Stone Sculpture.
But it was only similar. Their levels were completely incomparable.
If a sealed object at the level of the Solemn Stone Sculpture approached Madam and emitted its nightmare power, it would instantly be shattered by the protective power automatically activated by her earrings, and even the stone sculpture itself would be reduced to fragnts.
After a while, Madam said softly, “So, do you see anything?”
Gu Shen withdrew the Blazing Fire, thought for a mont, and said hesitantly, “With your status, I believe many ntal-type transcendents have already examined you, right?”
Madam smiled. “That’s right. There was even a ntal-type transcendent at the Tenth Level of Deep Sea, but none of them could tell anything.”
Gu Shen was stunned.
Even a transcendent at the Tenth Level of Deep Sea… couldn’t see the hidden tiny line?
But the Blazing Fire could sense it. His transcendental power was indeed very special.
However, he knew very well that with his current strength, seeing it and resolving it were two different matters. While he was hesitating, Madam’s voice sounded again.
“It was Cui Zhongcheng who recomnded you to . He said you could cure .”
Hearing Cui Zhongcheng’s na, Gu Shen felt enlightened.
He knew that there were not so many coincidences in this world. The mass insomnia on Lipu Street was most likely part of Cui Zhongcheng’s plan. The patients from before had been half-forced into his hands, which could be regarded as ‘experience accumulation’.
Just as he resolved the incident with the Solemn Stone Sculpture, Madam ca. This series of events made Gu Shen suspect Cui Zhongcheng’s true motive for adding fuel to the fire behind the scenes.
“Madam, your symptoms are very simple. It should just be… insomnia.” Gu Shen looked straight into the woman’s eyes and said firmly, “When you fall asleep occasionally, you have many dreams, and they’re all nightmares. Recently, your sleep ti has been decreasing. Even with the protection of ntal-type sealed objects, it’s unavoidable. I’m guessing it’s been a long ti since you took off those two earrings, but you can only sleep three to five hours each day.”
Lu Nanzhi sighed softly.
Before coming to the Dream Whisperer, she had actually had doubts… How could an unknown young man treat a transcendental condition that even a transcendent at the Tenth Level of Deep Sea couldn’t detect?
But the facts had already proven that Gu Shen was better than that tenth level expert.
At least he had ‘identified’ her symptoms and described them accurately.
The two earrings were incredibly precious ntal-type sealed objects. With them, no matter how uneasy, anxious, and nervous she had felt in the past few years, she could at least have restful sleep and wake up each day full of energy and vitality.
But now, the earrings had lost their effect.
Madam lowered her eyes and said softly, “Have you figured out the reason?”
“…” Gu Shen remained silent.
The silence between them didn’t last long.
Lu Nanzhi exposed the young man’s thoughts. “You suspect soone close to
did it, so you don’t dare to say it.”
Gu Shen’s eyes changed slightly as he looked at Madam strangely, thinking that this woman was really sharp.
“There’s an abnormal transcendental movent between your eyebrows… Although it’s very faint, it’s indeed there,” he said honestly. “Under the protection of those two earrings, I can’t think of any way to plant a ‘ntal curse imprint’ on you. I’m afraid it’s only possible when you take the earrings off. So I think… only soone close to you can do this.”
Lu Nanzhi listened quietly.
With her wisdom, she understood what Gu Shen ant the mont he spoke.
The ntal imprint had been planted by soone she trusted.
Gu Shen felt a little nervous, afraid that his words would anger this big shot. But to his surprise, this woman was terrifyingly calm. Knowing that she was being sched against by soone she trusted, she didn’t show any signs of anger and only asked calmly, “In that case, do you have a solution?”
The ntal imprint was very special.
The person hiding behind the scenes must have anticipated that an expert would investigate. Although a transcendent at the Tenth Level of Deep Sea was undoubtedly powerful, because of their transcendental characteristics, this person couldn’t see this imprint, so they naturally couldn’t remove it either.
Gu Shen, however, was different.
He deliberated before asking, “I can give it a try… but I can’t guarantee success. Are you willing to take the risk?”
“No problem.” Madam didn’t even hesitate for a mont.
She took off the two earrings and said softly, “Go ahead.”
So decisive. Gu Shen was astonished by Madam’s courage.
It was only their first eting, but she had taken off her earrings. He had clearly reminded her earlier that this ntal imprint had been planted by soone with ill intentions when she took off the earrings.
Is it because I’m young? Or is it out of trust in Cui Zhongcheng?
No matter what, she was a person with considerable courage.
Due to various considerations—so out of wariness toward Cui Zhongcheng, so out of awe for Madam’s status—Gu Shen had always maintained the attitude of doing his best but never taking on more than he could handle nor showing off his abilities.
“I will do my best,” Gu Shen said. “Madam, please enter your dream.”
His Blazing Fire power should only be at the first level now, and he could only use the most basic hypnosis.
Fortunately, Madam was not a transcendent. After removing her earrings, the ntal power around her gradually relaxed.
She closed her eyes, and her consciousness was about to plunge into chaos.
The thin line between her eyebrows began to tremble… It was like a steel saw rubbing back and forth against her soul. Lu Nanzhi frowned and groaned softly. This symptom had appeared when the transcendent at the Tenth Level of Deep Sea had hypnotized her. It was as if there was an unseen force resisting the hypnosis from outsiders, preventing her from entering her dreams easily.
This scene was within Gu Shen’s expectations.
“Go.” Gu Shen remained calm. He had long felt the ntal anomaly between Lu Nanzhi’s eyebrows, so how could he not have the ans to deal with it?
With this command, the Blazing Fire imdiately surged toward Madam’s glabella. The tiny fla swept through the air with powerful and majestic montum.
He couldn’t see the thin line, but he could sense it with the Blazing Fire.
Closing his eyes, Gu Shen placed all his attention on the Blazing Fire and used the ntal space between Madam’s eyebrows as the battlefield. They were both tiny existences, but at the sa level, they both beca colossi.
The originally pitifully small Blazing Fire imdiately turned into a vast sea of flas after entering Madam’s glabella.
This was the profound concept of containing the maximum within the minimum, a mountain within a seed, the infinite within the finite.
It was the first ti Gu Shen had experienced such a mystical feeling. When he removed the Solemn Stone Sculpture’s imprints, he had directly imrsed his soul without any obstruction. But this ti was different. He was blocked outside before he could imrse his soul. Thus, his consciousness remained clear, but he had reached the Minute realm where his mind condensed into a small figure.
Perhaps the hypnosis of the ntal system, slowed down, was a presentation of the Minute realm.
It wants to escape. Gu Shen’s face appeared in the sky above the sea of flas.
He looked down at the ntal space in the glabella. On this battlefield, the thin line enlarged to a winding, majestic form, like a gigantic dragon. Although it looked spectacular, it was actually fragile. After being caught off guard by the Blazing Fire’s attack and hit hard, it roared furiously… and chose to escape.
It didn’t even put up a fight.
It seed that the person who planted the ntal imprint had already anticipated this, having prepared a counterasure if any trace was detected.
However, wasn’t this reaction too spineless?
Gu Shen frowned and controlled the sea of flas to intercept the dragon. This ti, he felt the power of his Blazing Fire characteristics. While they were both Minute ntal characteristics, the opposing force was extrely insubstantial and collapsed at a single touch. In contrast, his ntal characteristics were solid and compact. Every wisp of fla falling from the sea of flas could sear bowl-sized, bloody wounds on the dragon.
“Do you think you can escape?” Gu Shen retracted the sea of flas, forcing the dragon to curl up, connecting head and tail. Now that things had co to this, there was only the final encirclent left.
However… sothing unexpected happened.
The dragon wailed!
The dragon raised its head and smashed it down. Then its massive body drilled down. Gu Shen reacted swiftly. The sea of flas instantly fanned out and cut the drilling dragon in half. But it was still too late. Half of its massive body turned into nothingness under the flas as the Blazing Fire devoured its transcendental essence within seconds, while the remaining half completely disappeared.
This thin line was not a dragon at all but a worm!
Survival by severance.
This was a tactic of earthworms.
Who planted this imprint? Why is it so cowardly? Gu Shen’s expression was gloomy. But since this imprint escaped from Madam’s forehead, does this an… I can hypnotize her and let her enter her dreams now?
Gu Shen was facing a decision.
From the perspective of ‘entering her dreams’, he had already fulfilled his employer’s request. The ntal imprint had been successfully repelled, and Madam could now enjoy peaceful dreams.
But from another perspective, this imprint still had remnants. If he didn’t fully remove it, there could be future trouble.
Madam is Nan Jin’s elder sister, and Cui Zhongcheng specifically asked her to co see … After a brief consideration, Gu Shen made a decision. I’ll try to see if I can completely pull out this ntal imprint.
With this thought, the Blazing Fire dived.
Sure enough.
After the ntal imprint escaped, Madam, who had her eyes closed on the chair, began breathing slowly and gently a few seconds later…
She successfully fell asleep.
