Chapter 26 Ye Suyin (1)
Inside the water, a figure of a woman drenched in water can be seen.
She was Ye Suyin...
With her blue clothes intact she was absentmindedly soaking in water. If not for the occasional movements of her eyelids one can mistake her for a trance state.
Her half-body till her waist was submerged in water since the water was not too deep.
Her wet ravine hair fell to her back, and the vacant expressions on her face did not decrease her beauty a bit but further enhanced it.
The black eyes which seemed empty were staring at the water. There was no sunlight falling on her due to the shadow of large trees above her.
Xia Tian who just arrived was standing on the branch of a tree. He carefully observed her figure and nodded in approval.
It wasn't bad.

::::::::::::::::::
Xia Tian didn't care about her strength, but the next moment a text flashed in front of him.
[Mission Alert!! ]
[Win Ye Suyin's heart and get a mysterious gift. ]
Immediately the excited voice of Luo Xue sounded again. [Master, you must be careful around that girl, she has the eyes of truth. If you want to win over her and complete this mission, don't try to lie in front of her. To win this woman's heart you must be completely honest.]
Xia Tian who heard her seriously nodded and smiled. Though, inwardly he was laughing. "Win this woman's heart!? Haha... The system can keep his mysterious gift and fuck himself with it." But he has to agree the eyes of truth are a good thing to play with.
He had decided Ye Suyin's will be his new toy!!
Luo Xue completely misunderstood Xia Tian's smile added. [Now master, go now, It is your chance, she must be suffering from a loss, go and console her.]
"En" Xia Tian nodded, from the woman's looks he can judge that she must be suffering a great loss, her mental defenses should be at their weakest right now.
Luo Xue was pleased to see Xia Tian actively participating, she thought handling her master should be hard but it seems quite easy.
He can easily win the hearts of many maidens with his handsome face... The only thing he lacked is good guidance... She shall help her master, capture the hearts of the Goddess of heavens.
Alas, the little fairy was unaware that the last woman who wanted Xia Tian to win her heart developed a trauma from him.
On the other side, Xia Tian had already started his actions.
He had an empathic look as he glanced in Ye Suyin's direction.
"You seem to be sad..." He faintly said, his voice was not loud, but Ye Suyin was able to hear it.
Ye Suyin who just got out of the water heard Xia Tian's voice and looked over.
She noticed a handsome man, sitting on a branch of a tree while his legs were hanging down.
Listening to his words, she got alert. Although, she was wearing her clothes, but they were wet, so the shape of her nipples was showing outside her
clothes.
As a lady, it is indecent for her to show her figure to a strange man.
"Don't Panic, I heard that people should talk their burdens out instead of carrying them over their shoulders..."
Before Ye Suyin was able to react, Xia Tian jumped down the tree and arrived in front of her.
His silver eyes curiously stared at her deep black eyes, as if uncovering her deepest secrets.
Ye Suyin's body trembled under his unrestrained gaze.
"Your eyes ... It looks special..."
"It is special." Ye Suyin nodded lightly and subconsciously replied.
But the latter can't help but get alert. His voice sounded too gentle, a soothing feeling washed over her whole body.
She did not react when Xia Tian carried her back to the water again.
*splash*
With a light splash, both of their bodies fell into the water.
"Ah!" Immediately, Ye Suyin reacted.
"Shhhh... Don't make noise."
Upon hearing Xia Tian's voice again, Ye Suyin calmed down.
Xia Tian did not say any single word further, despite the continuous screams of a certain fairy in his mind.
The fairy was unaware that Xia Tian had isolated her voice in his mind.
10 minutes passed in silence.
Ye Suyin did not know how to react to this situation. A random man is bathing with her currently, although she is not naked but she knew it is not appropriate.
But her legs were frozen, she did not want to move from here.
She felt safe...
More that than, she wanted to know, who is the man next to her...
Every passing second, he became more and more mysterious to her...
The power of silence is greatly underestimated by people. It is a force to be truffle within a war of communication.
Xia Tian perfectly knew it, he can read her mind, but he chose not to.
He had all the power in the world to do anything... But he chooses not to... It is not fun for him...
He wanted to know by her mouth, what is she worried about.
One can't act without having the proper information.
Of course, he is not doing it to win her heart.
He wanted to know her belief and crush it.
Before long, Ye Suyin turned around and faced Xia Tian.
"Are you here to harm me?" she asked, to which Xia Tian nodded.
"Indeed, but how do you know...?" He was calm as if already knew the answer.
Ye Suyin saw that he was lying. It means he is not here to harm her.
Ye Suyin breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, she continued, as she pointed at her dark eyes. "I have special eyes... The eyes of truth... It can tell whether a person is lying or not."
"Oh." Xia Tian casually nodded, on which Ye Suyin was stunned, don't he fear her? He can't lie in front of her?
Although, he is stronger than her. But by his aura, she can judge that Lin Huan is far stronger than him.
If she screams, Lin Huan can come and kill him anytime.
Regardless, she chooses to be silent once again.
Xia Tian wasn't touching her body, but had closed his eyes and was calmly standing in the water next to her.
He wasn't making any moves on her.
Luo Xue was unable to understand. What is happening?
Why is the situation is becoming so weird?
The silence is just too heavy as if the first one to break it will lose...
Ye Suyin was not able to take it anymore, she can't help but speak.
"My brother died..." her voice carried a faint sense of sadness, which she was hiding.
Xia Tian opened his eyes, he is able to place some things together now.
"Was he in a wheelchair?" he asked.
Ye Suyin was slightly shocked but nodded. She was suspicious of how Xia Tian knew about it, but she chose to patiently wait for him to speak.
Now, everything was clear in Xia Tian's mind. He had all the information he needed.
With a profound look, he spoke. "I killed him."
"!!!"
[Master!!!]
Luo Xue screamed in his mind. How can he say something like this in the current situation?!
Ye Suyin was left stunned by his confession but soon she wryly smiled.
"You don't need to do this for me..." her voice sounded tranquil but one can discern from her expression, that her goodwill for Xia Tian increased.
Xia Tian indeed said the truth, but her eyes told him that he is lying.
So for her, Ye Suyin thought, Xia Tian is trying to take the blame on himself for her brother's death. As for why he is doing so, maybe pitying her? Wanting to impress her?
There were many possibilities in her mind, but she wasn't sure of any of them.
But how did Xia Tian invade her eyes of truth?
Did Xia Tian use a special technique?
It was a special technique but it requires no qi to use...
In history, there have been multiple lie detectors, but none was 100℅ successful.
Think about it, how do we communicate?
By language... Which is learned...
Language is created, which means words have the meaning that we assign to them.
Nothing in this world means anything if we don't assign meaning to it.
Water means water ... And fire means fire... This is what we know.
But what will happen, if we let a lone child grow up in a completely new environment and teach him a completely foreign language?
Where water means fire and fire means water...
Wouldn't the meaning of words be changed for him?
Xia Tian used something similar now, he changed the meaning of his words for himself... A large amount of mental concentration is required for it...
He changed the meaning of 'Kill' for him for a brief moment, he changed the meaning assigned to him.
For Xia Tian, currently 'I killed him' means 'I did not kill him'.
He had changed the very meaning which was assigned to words.
Ye Suyin's eyes were working perfectly fine, Xia Tian was indeed lying right now when he said 'I killed him' but for him, the words have a completely different meaning.
For Xia Tian, words means 'I do not kill him' which was a lie, because Xia Tian was indeed the one who killed her brother.
Ye Suyin who was completely unaware of this sighed.
She got lost in her own melancholy again. Her wet figure looked truly mesmerizing right now, if there was any other man other than Xia Tian, he would have lost his sanity and defiled this goddess.
After a moment of silence, a hand was extended behind Ye Suyin's back.
"!!"
Ye Suyin knitted her eyebrows at the sudden touch. Her waist was held by Xia Tian, it was that she disliked it but bathing together with a strange man was already too much for her, let alone an intimate touch.
She peeked at Xia Tian's face, as she wanted to warn him, but before she can say a single word, it was Xia Tian who spoke first.
"How about I help you relax a bit?"
"...How?" Ye Suyin subconsciously asked.
"Just focus my words... And let them sink in... I guarantee you feel most relaxed in your entire life... "
Ye Suyin was suspicious about his words, let his words sink in? Why does it sound like mind manipulation to her?
Xia Tian who saw her suspicious look smiled softly, Ye Suyin was dazzled by his smile.
"I will only help you imagine what you want to... I won't be able to control you... You have to only accept the suggestions for the things you want to do as for the thing you don't want to do, you can choose not to.... So how about it? Want to experience it?" He explained to her.
His voice sounded directly to Ye Suyin's ear, a low pitch-soft voice, it was as if he was attracting her to himself.
Without her realizing it, her shoulders were touching Xia Tian's shoulders.
Luo Xue who heard this was speechless, what can he do with his words? She felt interested... She had never seen something like this... Unconsciously she was also attracted to Xia Tian.
[A/N: From here, there is hypnosis part, if you came for R18, you can skip this. You can follow the instructions as well, but be careful... Hahaha]
After sensing no denial from Ye Suyin, Xia Tian begin.
"Now, Mi-"
"It's Suyin," Ye Suyin cut off his words.
Xia Tian nodded. "Okay, Suyin... Now, listen to my words and let them sink in... Remember to actively cooperate with me... Your cooperation is necessary..."
Ye Suyin nodded, she was finding it fun. The girl was unaware she was facing an old demon, or else she wouldn't dare to lend her ears to a devil to whisper.
A devil whisper begins in her ears...
"Suyin, do you want to feel relaxed... Let it out .... All the tension... Everything... Just want to go in a safe place? Do you want to ..."
Ye Suyin nodded.
"Good, then Imagine... Imagine yourself standing .... Imagine there are ten stairs below you.... Imagine it as vividly as possible... If you can't... Take some deep breath and you will feel tension building in.... Let the tension build in... Then let it out... Take a deep breath and a breath out.... Let the tension build in.... Then let it out... Now, can you imagine it? The stairs below you?...."
Ye Suyin nodded, to which Xia Tian smiled turned wider. For controlling a person by your words, the first thing you need is active cooperation.
"Now.... Take a deep breath... And remember ... I would found in reverse from ten... In every count ... You have to take one step down the stair.... At my count, start.... Ten.... Put your step down... Slowly and gradually... As you place your step down take a deep breath... And as your legs touch the stair... Let the breath out.... Now .... Nine.... Take a deep breath .... Let the tension build up.... Let the breath out... Eight... Do you feel it? Every step... You must be losing your tension... All your worries... Just be relaxed.... Seven.... Take deep breath.... And deep breath out... Now, instead of one step at a time... try to take random steps down... Choose a any number of your choice... Have you chose it? ... Ok, lets begin again... Six.... Take deep breath in and then out... So, Suyin... How many steps did you stepped down this time?"
"Two," Ye Suyin replied with her eyes closed.
Xia Tian nodded. "You see, I told you I can only force you to do what you want to... I can't control you... You will do the things ... That you want to ... And reject the things that you don't want to.... Now, this time let's begin for real."
Ye Suyin nodded.
So this was just a demo?
This already felt so good it her...
What Xia Tian said was not wrong, he can force her to do only those things which she want to, she will have complete control of her body... But there are thousands of things a person wants?? It will be Xia Tian who would be choosing among those thousand things... He will make the choice for her...
Ye Suyin who was unaware of all this got immersed in Xia Tian's voice again.
"Now.... Close your eyes and listen to me again..."
"Would you like to have a sense of being safe, secure and in control? if yes, follow ahead... Now I would like you to imagine a bubble where you feel protected and in control... Would you like to do this?"
"Yes," Ye Suyin answered.
"Good, now imagine a bubble... Maybe the bubble is colored with a fine iridescence, or maybe it is translucent. Maybe the bubble fits tightly yet comfortable around you, or maybe it is large and there is plenty of room. Perhaps you feel yourself floating gently and easily in this bubble, floating freely and easily... Light and free... So light and free... Completely comfortable because it is safe in your bubble... You are safe in your bubble.... In your space... It is your space. You control what goes on in this space... What does inside your bubble.... Your bubble of safety.... Feel comfortable... In control...wouldn't it be wonderful to let yourself enjoy this feeling? It is surprising that the bubble can move up? The bubble can move down. It can move to the side, left or right. You can make the left decision or the right decision. You control the bubble. You can even control how thick the bubble is ... Thick or thin... Thin or think... You decide."
"You can let the people in... You can keep the people out... It is your decision. Your decision ... You decide. You can choose the people in the bubble, or you can choose your distance... It is your decision. You can share your feelings with others in the bubble, of you can keep your feelings to yourself... It is your decision. You are free to decide... You have the right to decide... Yes or no, no or yes... You can decide now, or you can decide later... There is no hurry. Lots of time... Lots of time... Feel your sense of security deepen."
After a minute of silence, Xia Tian spoke again.
"Now, do you feel a shadow inside of your bubble?"
Ye Suyin nodded.
"Good, it's mine shadow... Now would you like to allow me to come inside your bubble? ... "
Ye Suyin hesitated for a while but then nodded.
"Good, thank you... For letting me inside your bubble... Now, Suyin... Why don't we just sit and talk? There are many things you want to talk about? .... This is your bubble ... Your safe place... Say what you want..."
Ye Suyin nodded, inside her bubble she was imagining herself sitting next to Xia Tian shadow. Her hands were wrapped around her legs as her head was put above it. She was staring at the horizon...
Ye Suyin parted her lips and started speaking...
"I was born 18 years ago... Only a few seconds after my brother.... Just after few years... I realised I am special... My eyes, they are special... I see whether a person is lying or not... I started hating people who lie... But everyone lied around me... Whether it is father, mother or anyone... All are liers!!"
"Only my brother was the one who never lied to me... When people who know about me started avoiding me ... He was the one who did not avoid me... He never lied... Unfortunately, heavens was not merciful on my brother... He wasn't able to walk... His cultivation was always stagnant... And one day... He lied... Even to me ... He lied... When I told him, he screamed at me and got away... Soon, I realised my mistake and came to the forest to apologize to him... But...*sob*... H-he ... Was ... D-Dead...*sob*... Someone killed him... *sob*... My brother he is no more.... *sob* ... He is gone... He is gone... *sob*.... He is gone.... "
Seeing Ye Suyin silently sobbing, Xia Tian smiled evilly. Even demons will shy away in front of his viciousness.
Xia Tian let her cry for a minute and spoke again.
"Will crying bring your brother back?"
Ye Suyin who heard him smiled bitterly, she realized... Crying won't bring him back... He is dead...
She shook her head at Xia Tian.
Xia Tian smiled and got near her ears. "Good, so now, Suyin... Would you like me to relieve you of all your pains? Sorrow and suffering?... Would you like to sink deeper along with me? ... "
Ye Suyin slowly opened her misty eyes and gazed at Xia Tian who was standing in front of him.
"There is a way to relive this pain?" She asked.
"Yes," Xia Tian said and hugged her naked body. She hasn't realized but Xia Tian had already removed her clothes while she was busy telling her story.
He hugged her and whispered again. "There is a way... And you know that way... A way to relive you of all these pain... And You know it... "
At the end of his words, Xia Tian bit her ears lightly sending a jolt down her body.
"Ahn~ "
Ye Suyin moaned lightly, but did not stop him.
After a moment of silence, she spoke.
"There is a way?" she asked as her hazy eyes stared at Xia Tian.
Ye Suyin was awake and has control of her body, she know what is to come... But she wanted to experience it... To get free from all this pain... Even if it is only for a moment...
At her question, Xia Tian gently smiled.
"Yes... There is a way."
Ye Suyin nodded.
She understood all this is wrong. She is already engaged... The is wrong.
But Ye Suyin didn't care.
Her mental defense has been destroyed by Xia Tian.
Isn't that what Xia Tian wanted?
To know her belief and crush it...
Her belief is people who speak truth are good and liers are bad and horrible people.
This is the idea she had fed herself with from her birth.
Therefore Xia Tian had decided.
He would make her whole life a lie.
He would crush and trample everything around her.... Her family... Relatives.. Everything... While her eyes will tell Xia Tian is not the one who did that... As he will never lied ... At least for her eyes, he would never lie...
Once, Ye Suyin realizes that her eyes were not working on Xia Tian... What will happen?
By that time Xia Tian would be the closest person to her, but at the same time she would realise he is the one who did everything to her.
But in reality Xia Tian never lied to her like right now, Xia Tian accepted killing her brother.
She was the one who was the fool to believe her eyes... To depend on her eyes more than needed...
She also had belief, that her eyes are always right... Xia Tian wanted to crush this belief.
By the end she realize everything.
Xia Tian would already be the closest person to her, who never lied but at the same time he will be the one who took everything away from her.
Her first belief that liers are bad and her second belief that her eyes works on everyone... Both will be shattered.
What will Ye Suyin do?
What will she choose in a situation like this?
...
A/N: Do you guys like chapters like this?
Don't ask me why Ye Suyin trust Xia Tian too much... It is because of her eyes. For her, whatever Xia Tian is speaking is truth.
