Chapter 175: Chapter 175 Xuan Jiu: I Have a Plan

The elemental power directly blocked Xuan Jiu’s path upstairs.

Xuan Jiu turned around and saw Chen Yunji with his lips tightly pressed together, his usually aloof demeanor now tinged with anxiety.

"Oh my, oh my," Xuan Jiu teased with a grin. "Someone’s actually in a rush now."

"What exactly are you trying to do?" Chen Yunji asked, his voice slightly heavier.

"Helping you, of course," Xuan Jiu replied with a playful smile.

Looking at Chen Yunji, Xuan Jiu shook his head, puzzled. "I really can’t figure out how someone can hold back so much."

"You’re silent as a stone, did you expect Xiao Jinsheng to use mind-reading on you or what?" Xuan Jiu scoffed.

In the past, when the mind-reading superpower was still usable...

Whatever Chen Yunji thought in front of him was completely transparent.

Despite Chen Yunji’s surface demeanor of keeping others at bay and being indifferent...

When Xuan Jiu used mind-reading, he saw firsthand how Chen Yunji looked dazed outwardly, but inwardly had an entire drama running.

One man, yet he could embody an entire city’s population.

All the gemstones in his mind had their own numbers and names.

Those gemstones represented the soldiers of various nations inside Chen Yunji’s mind.

And then... his mind staged the Gem Three Kingdoms war.

Xuan Jiu had once suspected Chen Yunji wasn’t normal.

How could someone’s outward coldness conceal such a lively imagination?

Through the mind-reading superpower, Xuan Jiu discovered Chen Yunji wasn’t the expressive type.

Whatever bothered him, he internalized it.

Even if he had grievances or grudges against someone, he’d never argue.

If it could be solved through actions, he’d deal with it decisively.
