Chapter 72: Chapter 63 Worthy of Being
The prerequisite for mastering the first level of the Clear Heart Skill was to keep one’s heart undistracted and clear all distracting thoughts.
Everyone’s mind was filled with various thoughts, like a busy ocean, countless thoughts rising and falling, intertwining like never-ending waves.
Perhaps one could clear their mind temporarily, but within a few seconds, those annoying little things would co back. Once one began to think wildly, it would be impossible to stop.
Completely eliminating one’s thoughts was an extrely difficult task, requiring a great deal of ti and effort to practice specifically, enduring hardships beyond ordinary people’s imagination.
However, Zhou Yuan had previously learned proper ditation, so the speed of clearing his mind was exceptionally fast. In just a few minutes, he entered a ditative state and began practicing according to the detailed steps of the cultivation technique in his mind.
More than half an hour later.
[You have mastered the first level of Clear Heart Skill, Perception
3]
Zhou Yuan erged from his ditative state, a proud smile spreading across his face.
“I mastered the first level in just half an hour. As expected of .”
The Clear Heart Skill had five levels in total. Reaching the fifth level would touch the threshold of heaven-man resonance, but could only touch the threshold, unable to step inside. After all, it was only a skill of excellent quality.
However, for the current Zhou Yuan, it was more than enough to practice for a long ti.
With the Perception attribute reaching 22 points, Zhou Yuan felt the world before him change once again, becoming clearer, more real, more colorful, and the dark matter he could sense beca more abundant and extensive.
He imdiately took out a high-grade dark stone to absorb, the speed several tis faster than before.
Just like this, he trained for several hours. Outside the window, the sky gradually lightened, and dawn broke.
Zhou Yuan stopped his training; it was better to train shadow techniques at night. Training during the day would inevitably be affected by environntal factors.
This also made the shadow system a target of ridicule, being called sewer ratn who couldn’t face the light.
To be fair, they weren’t wrong. The shadow system was basically an assassin stream and indeed couldn’t face the light too much.
Zhou Yuan stretched, opened the system, and began his daily lucky draw.
[Na: Healthy Apple]
As expected, another healthy apple.
Zhou Yuan took an apple from his backpack and started munching on it, then opened his phone and entered a chat with “Ant,” sending over information on Qin Youwen, “Help
check this person.”
After a while, Ant replied, “No problem, boss. This ti the information is quite substantial, just 100,000.”
Having spent millions before, now needing only 100,000, Zhou Yuan transferred 30% of the deposit to Ant without batting an eye.
“The extraordinary world sure burns money like water…”
Zhou Yuan put away his phone, took out the Paru Ball, and released Fang Qing. The other party was holding a blood-stained scalpel in her hand, evidently practicing her own skills.
“What’s up?” Fang Qing asked.
“Uh… I just wanted to ask if you wanted breakfast.”
“I’m not hungry…” Fang Qing paused, “But I do miss the taste of food. Get
so buns and vegetable soup.”
Fang Qing thought for a mont and then asked, “Do you have a spare phone?”
“I have one. Why?”
“Give it to
then. The Paru Ball has a signal. If I want to co out, I’ll ssage you… but I shouldn’t have much ti recently.” Fang Qing flashed a bright smile, her blood-stained hand and scalpel adding a touch of eeriness.
“The Paru Ball has a signal?” Zhou Yuan was stunned.
“The space is very large, the decor is luxurious, and there’s even a large pool with a built-in heating function.”
“Feels like you’re living better than .”
Zhou Yuan couldn’t help but complain.

After buying breakfast, Zhou Yuan ate while reading the intel sent by Ant.
[Qin Youwen, male, thirty-seven, forr head of the Wanxiang Group’s Expansion Departnt. A year and a half ago, he developed a ntal illness, vandalized eight cars on the street, and kidnapped a child, attempting to kill him (seemingly mistaking him for an enemy). He was apprehended by passersby and sent to a private ntal hospital in Xinhu nad “Mingche Mind” for treatnt.]
Developed a ntal illness… Zhou Yuan frowned, feeling sothing was off.
According to the Eyes of Identification, the person who decided the location for Wanxiang Plaza’s construction was the one who set up the Gathering Yin Formation, which must be an extraordinary person. The probability of an extraordinary person developing a ntal illness was small—more likely, they saw sothing indescribable, lost their sanity, and went mad.
Could it be that Qin Youwen saw sothing he shouldn’t have, and that’s why he went mad?
It seed reasonable. After all, for so many years, if sothing happened to the Gathering Yin Formation at Wanxiang Plaza, nobody would have dealt with it. If Qin Youwen had an accident, it would be a plausible explanation.
Just then, Ant sent another ssage, “I hacked into Qin Youwen’s family mbers’ phones. Their chat records are quite interesting.”
“The family always inquired about Qin Youwen’s condition, but Qin Youwen always said so strange things. Those were actually various types of encrypted texts, and I deciphered them one by one. Without exception, they all said—”
“Save , save , save , save …”
“Hiss…”
Reading Ant’s ssage, Zhou Yuan couldn’t help but gasp in shock.
A bit terrifying the more you think about it. Could it be that Qin Youwen was still rational, and the ntal illness was just a front? Was he being ssed with by soone?
That didn’t make sense either. After all, Qin Youwen was capable of setting up the Gathering Yin Formation. He shouldn’t have been sent to a ntal hospital so easily, right?
Zhou Yuan thought for a mont, then typed, “Is there any evidence that Qin Youwen is an extraordinary person?”
Ant: “Not found yet. From various traces, he seems to be an ordinary person, but we can’t rule out the possibility of excellent disguise skills.”
Zhou Yuan: “Got it. Please find
information on his family and the ntal hospital.”
Ant: “Already gathered. Sending it now, total is 100,000.”
Zhou Yuan transferred the remaining balance altogether.
Ant: “Boss, you’re generous. By the way, a reminder, the commotion you caused last night was quite big. Both the underworld, law enforcent, and the Control Bureau got wind of it. You’d better be careful for a while.”
Zhou Yuan: “Noted, thanks.”
Just as he finished typing, a call ca in.
It was Chen Guangxi.
Zhou Yuan raised an eyebrow. Chen Guangxi was a mber of the Mobile Task Force, so she shouldn’t be calling him.
“Hello, Ms. Chen, what’s up?”
“Yuan, co to the Control Bureau, ti for a mission.” Chen Guangxi’s side was noisy, with the sound of loud keyboard typing, it seed like she was at an internet cafe.
“Okay, I’ll be right there.”
Zhou Yuan hung up, his expression serious. It was likely an investigation into last night’s incident.
Although no traces were left behind, committing such a big thing for the first ti made him a bit nervous…
