  On this day, the sun was high in the sky, and the weather station issued its highest-level heat warning, saying that it was the hottest day in history.

  Walking on the road, it feels like the whole person is going to be roasted. The dog found a shady spot and lay there lazily, unwilling to move again. Almost all the shops on the street had their doors tightly closed, as if they were afraid that a wisp of hot air would get in and ruin the comfort brought by the air conditioning. For those shops without air conditioning, the fans were turned up to the highest setting.

  It was on this day that in the maternity ward of a hospital in the city center, a man paced back and forth at the door, occasionally glancing through the glass window into the operating room. Another woman sat calmly on a long bench, her face stern.

  "Kong Zheng, stop turning around, you're making me dizzy!" The woman suddenly spoke up, her hair styled in a very high bun with a wooden hairpin crossing through the middle, lifting up the entire hairstyle and giving off an air of majesty.

  "Sister, the nurse said that Lin Lan had a premature birth and it was difficult. How can I not worry?" The man's hands kept rubbing together, his eyebrows were locked into a "mountain" shape, compared to the woman, the man's facial features looked much younger, but this did not hinder his handsome appearance.

  "I've calculated the fortune, and it's only surprising but not dangerous." The woman remained expressionless and continued to speak. This time, however, she stood up and patted the man's shoulder. "Born at noon, when the yang energy is strongest. Kong Zheng, if it were a girl, she might be the most promising seedling in our Du family's history. Are you still sticking to your idea?"

  "Sister, you've walked this path before, you should know how bitter it is. Now that I'm successful and can provide for my family, I just hope my child grows up peacefully and doesn't follow in the footsteps of our ancestors." Du Kongzheng said sincerely, "Sister, please, I beg of you." In the Du family, the woman was the head of the household, so if his sister didn't agree, then no matter how determined he was, it would be useless.

  "Let's take another look, maybe it's a boy again." Du Kongyang muttered to herself, but in fact her divination had already revealed one corner of the fate of the unborn baby in the delivery room. It was indeed not the old way of the Du family, but nor was it as peaceful and ordinary as her father said.

  "Ah——" As soon as Du Kongyang's voice fell, a sharp cry of a baby came out from the delivery room. The next moment, the nurse ran out excitedly and said: "Mother and daughter are safe!"

  The next moment, when Du Kongzheng saw this child, his facial expression froze at that moment.

  Life is indeed predetermined. She was a woman of the Du family, so no matter how much he wanted to protect this child as a father, it couldn't be changed.

  The child was only a little bigger than his fist, because he was premature, so he was sent to the nursery for observation early on. His entire skin didn't have the rosy complexion of a baby, but instead had an unhealthy pallor. The most striking thing about the child were his eyes, one open and one closed.

  "Born with yin-yang eyes." Du Kong Zheng muttered to himself in a somewhat depressed tone.

  Du Kongyang was also stunned when he saw the child. People like them are all born with yin and yang eyes. It's just that no one is born, they are all cultivated later in life.

  "No, it's not Yin Yang eyes." Du Kong's eyebrows furrowed, her expression turned solemn, "It's the Wheel of Heaven eyes."

  Yin-yang eyes, this is a kind of eye that can communicate with ghosts and gods, but no matter what, it will disappear with the increase in age. In fact, everyone has more or less the ability to have yin-yang eyes when they are born, just like the elderly say, children can see ghosts and gods. But as they grow up, this ability gradually weakens until it disappears. Then you need to practice later in life to reopen your yin-yang eyes.

  The Heaven's Eye is different, the Heaven's Eye is also known as the Thousand Light Eye. Some people are born with their Heaven's Eye at the brow point open, and the brow point is also called the Moon Wheel. The moon itself is an open eye. An eye is another word for eyes. Therefore, the Moon Wheel at the brow point was originally an open eye. The moon shines every day, if it gets the sun's light, it will shine by itself. This is the combination of the heavenly soul and the earthly soul, if the moon can also get the earthly soul's shadow at the same time. In the bright moonlight, a shape will naturally form.

  So there is a saying, "A thousand lights in one's eyes, a thousand clarity."

  "Sister, I beg of you, don't take her away." Du Kong Zheng knelt down in front of Du Kong Yang, grasping at her hem and pleading painfully.

  "Now it's not a question of whether I take her away or not. Look at her, her skin is pale, and she's much smaller than an average baby. Except for the moment she was born and cried, has she ever cried again? She doesn't cry, nor does she have a smile on her face. Don't you think that's strange?" Du Kongyang's hand touched the glass cover, and the baby inside opened one eye to look at the two people arguing outside, expressionless.

  "Sister, she..." Du Kongyang said so, and Du Kongzheng also discovered the child's abnormality. However, he had not learned any magic, so he did not know what happened to the child.

  "Her soul has been extracted," Du Kongyang said coldly. "Normal people have three souls and seven spirits, but she only has one soul and one spirit. If it weren't for her innate extraordinary talent, she wouldn't be able to survive."

  "One soul one spirit..." Du Kong Zheng was shocked, his child had just been born and someone had already taken away its soul.

  "That person must have wanted to extract all her soul, and then refine it away, but didn't expect that as a newborn, her spiritual power was already so strong, so she wasn't completely extracted. Now you should understand why Lin Lan had an unexplained premature birth, if I hadn't taken her away, she would be dead for sure. The Du family has a method to repair the soul, as long as her life soul is still there, everything can be hoped for." Du Kongyang helped Du Kongzheng up, looking at that child, this was her own niece, but the road ahead of her would be more difficult than anyone else's by tens of thousands of times, she felt heartache too, but couldn't do anything about it. "Kongzheng, give her a name," she said.

  "Her generation name is Si, her brother's name is Siyan. Child, your name will be Du Silin." Du Kongzheng opened the glass cover and took out the child, "Silin, Daddy and Mommy love you very much. Live well, we'll meet again someday." He lowered his head and kissed Du Silin's forehead. This man, who didn't look stern at all but rather a bit childish, never cried. But today, facing his own daughter, tears fell from the corners of his eyes into Du Silin's left eye that had not opened yet.

  Du Sulin's eyes miraculously opened. The pupil of his left eye was deep and made people's hearts tremble, like a profound passage that couldn't be seen to the end, with only endless darkness.

  The next moment, however, everything returned to normal.

  "She has only her life and soul in her body, I will take the Taoist name for her, Tai Guang." Du Kongyang thought for a moment before saying.

  The women of the Du family have two names, one is their formal name and the other is their Taoist name, which is like a nickname.

  Du Sulin, her Taoist name is Taiguang.

  "Kong Zheng, three days later I will take Tai Guang away. You and Lin Lan..." She wanted to say cherish the remaining time well, but ultimately didn't say it out loud.

  Three days later, Du Kongyang indeed took Du Silin away, silently and unnoticed, no one noticed the child's disappearance.

  It's unclear whether it was fate or if he was playing a joke on her, but after Du Si Lin left, she never saw her parents again.

  When she was seven years old, her aunt Du Kongyang brought a boy three years older than her, named Du Siyan.

  As for her parents, they were reduced to ashes in a great fire.

  Auntie told her that it was the Samadhi True Fire. Even a thousand-year-old demon who had cultivated the Tao could be refined into flying ash, let alone her parents.

  The Zhouye city was reduced to ashes, and for a long time after that, not a single blade of grass grew, turning it into a wasteland. This case caused a huge stir in society, but ultimately, with the passage of time, it was buried in the tunnel of time.

  Perhaps she only had one soul and one spirit, Du Sulin has been quiet since childhood, and didn't have much expression. Her body was always weak, but later improved a lot after entering cultivation.

  Du Siyan came and did not learn the way of cultivation, but followed Du Kongyang's arrangement to go to school and study.

  The men of the Du family cannot cultivate. What they need to do is to pass on the lineage. Each generation only needs one male and one female. No more, no less.

  Du Sulin would follow his brother to school, but only occasionally due to his cultivation.

  After his parents' death, Du Kongyang has been investigating the murderer. The Three-Eyed True Fire cannot be an accident, it must be man-made. Therefore, the responsibility of taking care of his sister falls on Du Siyan's shoulders.

  Later they also took in a lonely soul named Fang Feng. He had been dead for many years, wandering the mortal world, searching for his lover from his past life.

  Douslin and Fangfeng got along well, Fangfeng was talkative, she was a female doctor before her death, and died at the age of 25. So she always took care of Douslin like an elder sister.

  They all called Du Si Lin "Tai Guang", and after a long time, the name Du Si Lin seemed to have been forgotten.

  Tai Guang, this name constantly reminds Du Sulin that she is a yin-yang master.

  But in the end it's all the same
