Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chen Xi remained silent as he watched Ji Xiang leave, without attempting to stop her, and Li Youu and the others were similarly unconcerned, though the army did not grant her passage, allowing Ji Xiang to return to the place where she had previously given lectures.

"Zichuan, were you the one who orchestrated the entire operation?" Liu Bei pondered for a moment before speaking. Although he had always trusted Chen Xi, his tone was not particularly harsh.

"It is my fault." Chen Xi nodded. This time, it was indeed his fault.

"What were you thinking? The danger of this matter is self-evident," Li Youu asked after a pause. This time, Chen Xi had to provide an explanation.

"The idea was good, but it got messed up." Chen Xi sighed and said.

Although Chen Xi was confident, his understanding of psychology was definitely not at a professional level. The reason he chose this subject was partly because he had countermeasures and partly because of a truth Jia Xu had told him.

The Military Spirit Legion comes from a high concentration of willpower, and Chen Xi indeed had a certain degree of ambition for this.

Such a level of power as the Military Spirit Legion is more than sufficient as a national foundation. Since it involves a high concentration of willpower, then psychology, in any sense, should be the most convenient path.

Although Chen Xi’s level doesn’t reach the professional grade, he is familiar with basic theories and is aware of the positive applications of psychology. The biggest problem lies in the so-called overcorrection, distortion of human hearts and such, but these can be counteracted by Chen Xi’s Spiritual Talent.

Of course, Hua Xiong’s batch of Stockholm patients from early years also proved that a distorted will cannot give birth to a Military Spirit Legion, so originally Chen Xi’s goal was merely to unify the soldiers’ will more comprehensively.

After all, as long as he achieves a high degree of unified will without distorting the soldiers’ will, One Talent is basically assured, and Double Talent can be expected.

This was also Chen Xi’s purpose in bringing out this subject. From a certain angle, if Chen Xi’s plan could be realized, using this discipline positively in an era where will can distort reality, it would definitely be regarded as a Nation Guardian Level discipline.

Of course, its danger equaling that of a Nation-Destroying Level discipline is not incorrect, since everything has two sides; such benefits naturally come with significant downsides.

Though Chen Xi had his moments of indecision, once he was convinced he could counteract them, he had little hesitation. This was something worth verifying, with a warning that those who misuse it will face Divine Retribution. If they still choose a path of wrongdoing, Chen Xi would not hesitate to deal with them directly.

At the time, Chen Xi’s biggest issue was the nature of psychology as a discipline. Chen Xi’s level, having learned, read, but not researched, left him incapable of determining what degree of influence constituted distortion, stability, or overcorrection. This was beyond his capability to judge; he needed a genius to verify the limits.

Of course, the verification process might bring about various problems or lead down an erroneous path, but this wasn’t significant since Chen Xi had already prepared countermeasures. Whoever picked up that book would fall under Chen Xi’s scrutiny.

Only, this thing was too dangerous, so Chen Xi couldn’t casually impart it and could only place it in Cai Yan’s forbidden book library, relying on chance. Yet, Chen Xi’s good fortune exceeded expectations.

After Ji Xiang began delving into this aspect, Chen Xi thoroughly investigated Ji Xiang’s background, and her conditions exceeded those that Chen Xi had initially imagined.

Neither good nor evil, neither joy nor sorrow, following the Way of Nature, serving as Xuanyuan High Priest. More importantly, Ji Xiang was quite talented in this aspect.

Following the Way of Nature means that even if Ji Xiang learns such Nation-Destroying and Nation-Guarding aspects, once an agreement is made, Ji Xiang wouldn’t deliberately propagate them.

Neither good nor evil implies she wouldn’t waver in her verification; there would be no acts of cruelty or kindness, making her incapable of becoming a scientific madman or paranoid. She would remain unchanged throughout.

Neither good nor evil, combined with neither joy nor sorrow, makes her nearly a reference point in psychology; any state differing from hers indicates a change in Heart Spirit.

Considering the lifestyle of the Xuanyuan High Priest, confined, jokingly, have you ever seen a proper shamaness step outside?

Three years ago, Ji Xiang was almost the ideal learner for Chen Xi, as she possessed all the characteristics that Chen Xi required at the time.

For Chen Xi, this very Ji Xiang was enough for him to reverse-engineer another discipline, completely eradicating the Nation-Destroying Attribute.

However, things have now gone astray, and Chen Xi finds himself unable to comprehend how Ji Xiang transitioned from the Heavenly Person status of Xuanyuan High Priest to a normal individual in just three short years.

This is why Ji Xiang said those words and why Chen Xi assumed responsibility without saying anything.

"In other words, you messed up?" Li Youu asked, looking at Chen Xi with a frown.

"Think about how she was three years ago." Chen Xi replied with a sense of helplessness. "I didn’t think she would undergo such a drastic change. She was cultivated by the Ji Family for fifteen years, yet in just three years, she’s transformed unexpectedly."

"But the situation hasn’t turned too bad; at least she has adhered to our previous agreement and hasn’t spread it further, so, Wen Ru, what do you plan to do?" Chen Xi spoke openly, feeling unconcerned now that he had acknowledged his mistake, thus passing the responsibility over.

Initially, had Ji Xiang remained in the state she was three years ago, confinement would suffice. The former duty of the Xuanyuan High Priest was to stay within the temple, and for Ji Xiang back then, confinement made little difference. If her servants didn’t take her outdoors regularly, she would continue to remain in place.

Chen Xi had discovered at the time that it was essentially a hermit profession, so the primary sacrifice to Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor could easily be substituted with psychological research and brainwashing prevention, making remaining in place utterly normal for a profession cloistered for dozens of generations.

"A double-edged sword..." Li Youu paused for a moment before speaking. "Are you sure her school of thought hasn’t been transmitted externally?"

"No, I’ve embedded eleven people on my side, including a student, and from the beginning, I’ve made clear that it’s the School of Mind, with the core being the Unity of Knowledge and Action extended from Meng Ru’s ideas." Chen Xi nodded. If Ji Xiang had actually taught psychology, the people Chen Xi had placed there would have reported it to him.

"Lord." Li Youu remained silent for a moment before turning to look at Liu Bei.

"Zijing, take care of the Ji Family Lady. Wen Ru, send a letter to the Eastern Wu, giving them an account." Liu Bei slowly spoke, "Zichuan, come to my house afterward."
