Taking the opportunity of traveling through books

Fight back in anger to overcome difficulties

When Hao Yang came back, his eyes were red, as if he had been crying. He forced a smile, sat down by the bed, and held my hand: "The doctor said you were just a little frightened, and there's nothing serious wrong with you. You'll recover soon."

I felt even worse as I watched him pretend to be relaxed. I spoke weakly, "Hao Yang, I'm sorry. I made you worry again."

He shook his head and held my hand tightly. "What nonsense are you talking about? You are my wife, and it is my duty to take care of you." He paused, his eyes becoming firm. "Yaoyao, we can't be passive like this anymore. They hurt you again and again. I can't just sit there and wait for death."

His words resonated like a thunderclap in my heart. I looked at him, my eyes filled with confusion. It had always been Hao Yang who had protected me, shielding me from the wind and rain. And yet, I could only cling to him like a dodder, burdening him.

"I know you're feeling bad," Hao Yang said, stroking my hair gently, as if he saw through my thoughts. "But you can't dwell on the pain forever. Do you remember when we crossed the snowy mountains together and escaped from the wild beasts? Back then, we had nothing, but we supported each other and eventually overcame all the difficulties. Now, we can still face it together."

His words awoke my dormant memories. Yes, I used to be so brave and strong. When did I become so weak?

Hao Yang continued, his tone full of encouragement: "Yaoyao, you are much stronger than you think. You have a powerful system, you have me, and we have each other. We can definitely overcome all difficulties!"

His words were like a ray of sunshine, illuminating my gloomy heart. I took a deep breath, trying to control my trembling body, and a hint of life began to appear in my eyes.

At that moment, I felt a surge of warmth and a powerful force coursing through me. To my surprise, I discovered an exquisite wooden box had appeared on my bedside table. I opened it, and within lay a crystal-clear jade pendant.

The jade pendant radiated a gentle light, and I felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. I picked up the jade pendant, and a powerful force instantly surged into my body, lifting my spirits and dispelling all previous negative emotions.

I understood that someone was secretly helping me. Who could it be? A mysterious old man appeared in my mind, but he quickly denied it. Could it be him?

Hao Yang also noticed my change. He looked at the jade pendant in my hand in surprise: "What is this?"

I shook my head, indicating that I didn't know either. But I knew in my heart that this jade pendant would be my weapon of counterattack.

"Hao Yang, I'm going to find Wei Qing." I said in a firm tone, my eyes full of determination.

Hao Yang looked at me, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, but he finally nodded: "I'll go with you."

I clenched the jade pendant in my hand and got out of bed. An unprecedented power surged within me, and I knew it was time to fight back... I pushed open the door to the ward and walked out.

I pushed open the door of the ward, and a chilling breath emanated from me, and even the air seemed to freeze. Hao Yang followed closely behind me, his eyes filled with worry, but he stood firmly behind me, giving me strength.

I walked straight to Wei Qing's ward, each step firm and powerful, like stepping on a drumbeat. I pushed open the door. Wei Qing was sitting by the bed, leisurely sipping tea. Seeing me, a flash of surprise crossed her face, followed by a thinly veiled mockery: "Hey, isn't this our eldest daughter? What's the matter, you're willing to come out of your doghouse?"

I ignored her sarcasm and simply looked at her coldly, with a coldness and determination I had never seen before in my eyes. I slowly raised my hand, open my palm, and the crystal clear jade pendant lay quietly in my palm, emitting a soft light.

Wei Qing seemed to sense the danger. She stood up suddenly and was about to speak when a sharp light shot out from the jade pendant and hit her chest directly.

"Ah!" Wei Qing screamed, her body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, and fell heavily to the ground, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of her mouth.

It all happened so fast that Hao Yang had no time to stop it. He looked at me in surprise, his eyes full of disbelief.

I ignored Hao Yang's shock. My eyes were fixed on Wei Qing, without a trace of pity. This was just the beginning. I wanted to make everyone who had hurt me pay the price!

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Hao Shuang and Wei Xue rushed in aggressively. Seeing Wei Qing lying on the ground, their faces changed drastically, and they rushed towards me angrily.

"Bitch, how dare you hurt my sister!"

Hao Shuang and Wei Xue attacked simultaneously, each one ruthless, aiming for my vitals. I was already prepared, dodging nimbly. The jade pendant shone brightly in my hand, forming a powerful shield that blocked all their attacks.

"You don't know your own limitations!" I snorted coldly, and the jade pendant shone brightly. Two beams of light hit Hao Shuang and Wei Xue respectively. They groaned, staggered back, their faces full of horror.

"This... How is this possible?!" Hao Shuang covered his chest and looked at me in disbelief. "How did your power become so strong?!"

I didn't answer, but just looked at them coldly, my eyes full of warning.

They wanted to say something more, but I had already lost my patience. The jade pendant flashed, and a powerful force knocked them back, sending them crashing to the ground. I glanced at them coldly and turned away without hesitation.

"Let's go!" I said to Hao Yang behind me with an unquestionable tone.

Hao Yang looked at me deeply, without saying a word, and silently followed me out of the ward... I knew that this was just the beginning, and the real battle had just begun...

Leaving the ward, the hallway was empty, the pungent smell of disinfectant nauseating. I took a deep breath, trying to calm my violently heaving chest. The jade pendant in my palm was still warm, as if pulsing with some kind of power. I clenched it, my knuckles turning white.

Hao Yang followed me silently. I could feel his gaze fixed on my back, a look of inquiry and a hint of... awe?

"You..." He finally spoke, his voice a little hoarse, "When did you... become so powerful?"

I stopped and turned to look at him. The afterglow of the setting sun streamed in through the corridor windows, casting a golden halo on his face, making him look a little unreal. I smiled faintly, my tone calm and almost indifferent: "From the moment I decided not to let anyone bully me."

He didn't ask any more questions, just staring at me quietly, his eyes complex and difficult to decipher. I knew he had many questions: about my transformation, about the jade pendant in my hand, about the sudden surge of powerful strength within me. But I didn't want to explain now, nor did I need to.

Back in my hospital room, I immediately sat cross-legged, closed my eyes, and felt the strength coursing through my body. This strength came from the jade pendant, but also from the unyielding spirit and struggle deep within me. It was like a warm current, nourishing my body and cleansing my soul.

I felt the jade pendant vibrate slightly, and a message flooded into my mind. It was that mysterious old man! He told me that the jade pendant's power had just awakened, and I needed to practice continuously to fully master it. He also told me that Wei Qing and the others wouldn't give up, and I had to be careful.

I opened my eyes, a cold glint flashing across them. I knew this battle had only just begun. Wei Qing, Hao Shuang, Wei Xue, and those who hid in the shadows and wanted to kill me—I wouldn't let any of them go!

The next few days were strangely peaceful. Wei Qing and the others didn't cause any more trouble, as if they had vanished from the face of the earth. But behind this tranquility lay a greater crisis, I could sense it.

I practiced every day and worked hard to improve my strength. Hao Yang also stayed by my side silently. Although he didn't know what was going on, he knew that I needed him.

One day, I was practicing cultivation when I suddenly sensed a powerful, evil aura rapidly approaching. I abruptly opened my eyes and looked out the window. Night was falling, dark clouds thickened, and the atmosphere was oppressive and suffocating.

"Here it comes!" I whispered, with a flash of determination in my eyes.

Hao Yang also sensed something was wrong. He walked over to me, held my hand tightly, and said with a firm look, "Don't be afraid, I'm with you!"

I held his hand back, feeling the warmth of his palm, and an inexplicable power surged in my heart.

At this moment, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open, and a cold voice echoed in the room: "Wei Yao, long time no see..."

I turned around and saw Wei Qing standing at the door with a sinister smile on her face. Behind her were Hao Shuang, Wei Xue, and an old man in a black robe with a ferocious face.

The old man exuded a suffocating evil aura, and his eyes flashed with a faint green light, as if he was a messenger from hell.

"You...you guys..." I looked at them and my heart sank.

Wei Qing sneered, pointed at the old man and said, "Let me introduce you, this is..." She paused, with a hint of pride in her tone, "Master Dark Wizard!"
