The two people became quiet again . After a long while, Xie Yi said carefully, “I would like to know how we can solve our problem . ” His expression was firm . “Mind you, I won"t give up this body . ”
The dark alter ego sneered . “So you"ll continue to control this body and I"ll continue to live in this world?”
Xie Yi frowned . “That"s not what I meant . Boss said just now that we can cooperate with each other . Since that"s the case, why not we continue this cooperation?”
“Continue cooperating? How? By releasing me every few days?” The dark alter ego was not pleased .
“I"m not sure either . However, I believe that my boss will know . ” Xie Yi revealed his trust in Ling Lan through his eyes .
“You think your boss knows everything?” The dark alter ego glanced at Ling Lan with doubt . Although she was very strong and he feared her, he didn"t have much hope that she would be able to solve their problem .
“Of course, my boss will definitely find a solution,” Xie Yi replied with certainty .
Fine, he was brainwashed! Before the dark alter ego could reply, Xie Yi raised his voice and shouted, “Boss!”
“Yes?” Ling Lan appeared before them within a second and looked at them calmly .
“Boss, do you know how to solve our problem?” Xie Yi asked hopefully .
Ling Lan shook her head . “I"m not sure if my idea will work . ”
Xie Yi"s eyes brightened . His boss had an idea, but she just didn"t know if it would work . He knew that his boss was trustworthy . Xie Yi gave the dark alter ego a pleased look, but the latter almost choked in anger .
The dark alter ego sneered at Xie Yi . “He doesn"t know if his idea will work yet . What are you being so proud for?”
Xie Yi immediately turned his head towards Ling Lan . He hoped that Ling Lan"s idea would be able to give a blow to this arrogant and irritating dark alter ego .
Ling Lan shook her head . Xie Yi seemed to become more stupid after he met his dark alter ego . She was starting to doubt whether merging the two of them was a good idea after all . Xie Yi used to be a smart fellow .
Ling Lan covered her mouth and coughed . She felt that she needed to believe in her comrades and not underestimate them . She said calmly, “We need to find the reason why you two appeared in order to solve the problem . ”
The dark alter ego nodded at Ling Lan"s words, feeling that Xie Yi"s boss was still quite responsible . Xie Yi nodded his head furiously, too . As expected of his boss—he was always so thorough .
“From what I see, the spiritual fusion between the two of you will create an extremely strong spiritual power . This spiritual power can cause harm to the body and hence, the body"s self-defense mechanism kicked in and split your spiritual power into two before you gained consciousness . That"s why you have a split personality . This should be the special ability of the Xie family"s bloodline . A lot of babies with strong spiritual power tend to die the moment they"re born, while those that manage to survive will have to be bedridden for their entire life . ”
Ling Lan recalled how she was sick for the entirety of her previous life and she remembered how Li Lanfeng had poor health, too . The reason behind both cases was that they had overly powerful spiritual power . The Xie family"s bloodline was actually quite nature-defying, enabling babies with strong spiritual power to survive and have a healthy body . Due to their strong spiritual power, these children would learn things faster, too .
However, you need to pay for what you get . If the descendants of the Xie family wanted to become strong, they needed to face the so-called devil in their hearts, which was their sealed alter ego . This process was very ingenious .
“The awakening of your alter ego proves that your body was strong enough to hold your other personality,” Ling Lan explained seriously to Xie Yi . “Your body had the extra energy to handle the sealed ego, which was why your dark alter ego appeared .
“In other words, there is no such thing as a devil in your heart . ” Ling Lan"s a.n.a.lysis was so shocking to Xie Yi that he gaped widely .
“Of course this is true . How could he be the devil in your heart? You didn"t know of his existence before this, did you? I don"t believe that you never made mistakes or felt regret in your childhood . Why did he only appear now?” Devil in the heart? What lie was this? Ling Lan didn"t believe in such things at all .
Xie Yi smiled bitterly and then opened his mouth to speak . “The elders say that the negative feelings in us would acc.u.mulate and forced the devil in our heart out at a certain point…”
“Good explanation . Do you believe that?” Ling Lan asked indifferently .
Xie Yi pondered over it seriously before replying in a helpless tone . “If you hadn"t told me all this, I would have . ” The elder"s explanation was never doubted at all . No one had ever a.n.a.lyzed the explanation carefully . The members of their family all thought that since the elders had plenty of experience, whatever they said had to be right .
Xie Yi looked at Ling Lan with a firm expression . He trusted his boss . “But I think what you say makes more sense . ” He turned to look at his dark alter ego, who was deep in thought . “What do you think?”
The dark alter ego raised his head to nod at Ling Lan . “I thought about it . What you said should be the truth . ” He agreed with Ling Lan"s a.n.a.lysis .
“Since you two belong together, why not merge together again? There shouldn"t be any problem with that,” Ling Lan suggested .
“There will still be a main ego . I"m not willing to bow down to him . ” The dark alter ego raised his objection first . His arrogance did not allow him to bow down to anyone, not even his other self .
Ling Lan smirked . “I didn"t say that Xie Yi would be the main ego after the merging . ” She herself was not sure what would happen after they merged .
The dark alter ego looked at Ling Lan with a puzzled expression . “I looked into Xie Yi"s memory and there"s a person called Luo Lang . His personality is the main ego while his alter egos listen to him . ”
Ling Lan replied calmly, “In Luo Lang"s case, he awakened his innate talent . Those aren"t his alter egos . He uses a summoning technique—Spiritual Possession . Your case is completely different from his . ”
The dark alter ego was smart and immediately understood . “You mean that since Xie Yi and I belonged as a whole, you"re not sure who"ll become the main ego after we merge?”
Ling Lan nodded her head . “Yes . This is why I don"t know whether it"ll work or not . I don"t know what will happen after the merging . ” They might not even be able to have their own thoughts anymore, but this was something Ling Lan would never tell them .
Xie Yi and the dark alter ego fell deep into their thoughts . Ling Lan"s method had its risk—no one knew what the outcome would be . It could fail, or it could succeed . They could even end up becoming a completely different person…
