"Is the book still with you? Can we take a look at it?"
Zhou Bai reluctantly nodded: "I was originally going to burn the book, but sothing about it felt wrong, so I hid it. Co with ."
On the other side, Yan Shan and ng Ruocun were also pulled up by Qiu Xingze, who said on the way, "What are you guys doing? Get a move on, stop being so listless."
Zhou Bai, feeling the power of Greed Lure - Greed Snatch, silently ended the ability.
Before ending the ability, however, he said to the two, "Both of you have always been my role models; I am very happy to beco friends with you..."
With the cessation of Greed Lure - Greed Snatch's power and listening to Zhou Bai's words of encouragent, simple as they were, a warm current suddenly rose in the hearts of Yan Shan and ng Ruocun. It was the return of their desires, along with the drive, ambition, and upward motivation.
In the perception of Yan Shan and ng Ruocun, it was as if Zhou Bai's speech had encouraged them and reignited their fighting spirit.
At that mont, Zhou Bai's standing in their eyes greatly increased.
Filled with vigor, Yan Shan looked earnestly at Zhou Bai and nodded: "Thank you for what you said to ." He felt that Zhou Bai was a youngster with an exceptional talent who was humble and composed, even offering him encouragent at his lowest point.
However, recalling Zhou Bai's strange behavior at the dining table, he paused, but then reconciled with a thought: 'It's a pity that after being hard by Gu Letian, his ntal state seems a bit off.'
On the other hand, ng Ruocun, with the return of her desires and combining them with Zhou Bai's words, felt a surge of fondness.
She felt a warmth in her heart: 'Zhou Bai is not bad.'
At this mont, Zhou Bai, in their eyes, beca a kind-hearted, exceptionally talented young man who had suffered ntal trauma after being deceived and used by Gu Tianle.
Zhou Bai, sensing their goodwill, felt an almost uncontrollable urge to use the Fool's Diagram coupled with Greed Diagram to further alter their thoughts.
But he quickly repressed this urge: 'Now is not the ti.'
And in the course of this conversation with Zhou Bai, ng Ruocun's thoughts were permanently altered.
'There are so many with talents greater than mine, but that shouldn't lead to losing my fighting spirit.'
ng Ruocun silently told herself, 'History is full of many who weren't the most talented but beca top powerhouses. Why can't I?'
From a young age, ng Ruocun strived, relying on her exceptional talent, strong will, and efforts far beyond ordinary to achieve outstanding results.
But after coming to Central City to study and encountering many geniuses stronger than herself, seeing the luxurious lives of the celestial beings, and today eting the incredibly talented Zhou Bai, she realized her talent was not the best, and even with ten tis effort, she might not catch up.
But once in the big environnt of Central City and finding she was not the best, should she give up?
Because her talent was inferior to others, must she admit she would always be less than them?
A strong sense of unwillingness welled up in her.
'Why?! After all the hardships I've endured, after all the hard work? Since starting at 5 years old, learning the most basic materials, practicing with caution, and not daring to slack off until now, how can I give up?'
'Just because my talent is not as good as theirs, am I destined to always be weaker?'
A flicker of fierce unwillingness flashed through ng Ruocun's heart: 'Even if my talent is not as good as others, I will surpass those geniuses, surpass Zhou Bai! By other ans…'
She glanced at Yan Shan beside her: 'If I could control the abundant resources of the celestial breeds, even if a bit weaker in talent, I could also…'
Zhou Bai watched their expressions, the subtle changes in their eyes, feeling as if their thoughts had already been altered during their conversation.
'I really want to try combining the abilities of the Fool and Greed Diagram. But today is not the day, I'll wait for next ti.'
So he led the three to his dormitory, upon opening the door, Elsa approached to greet them, and Christina, who originally looked preoccupied, turned to speak upon seeing Zhou Bai, but then she caught the scent of another woman behind him.
Christina sent him a telepathic ssage: "Why did you bring a woman back? I'm telling you, I've regained my mories!"
Zhou Bai telepathically replied, "We'll talk about it later."
While saying this, Zhou Bai had already stopped in the doorway, blocking the view of the three people behind him, allowing Christina to slip into her sea of consciousness.
Christina, seeing ng Ruocun enter after, and Yan Shan following, exclaid: "Damn it, who told you to bring a man back as well?"
Zhou Bai ignored her and dove under the bed, pushing aside various household items and pulling out a book that was already prepared.
But after reflecting on the Greed Diagram ability tested earlier, Zhou Bai already decided to change the plan, so he picked up a pen that was prepared nearby and added a few more lines.
"Zhou Bai?" Qiu Xingze looked towards Zhou Bai's feet showing from under the bed and asked, "Did you find it?"
Looking at the added words, Zhou Bai slightly smiled, crawled out from under the bed, and handed over the book: "Wait a second, I hid it quite deep."
He handed the book to Qiu Xingze, saying, "Here it is."
Qiu Xingze looked at the book with a solemn expression, imdiately taking out a black cloth covered in runes, and carefully wrapped the book.
Zhou Bai said, "I advise you to turn in this book, rather than reading it yourselves."
"Don't worry." Qiu Xingze replied, "There are more than just us here in Donghua City, soone will deal with this."
Qiu Xingze added, "Zhou Bai, we'll take the book with us for now, and for the next few days, you'd better stay in the city, absolutely do not go out. We might still have so questions for you."
Zhou Bai nodded, smiling cooperatively, "I understand, I am at your disposal for the investigation."
Watching the three leave, Zhou Bai smiled gently and said slowly, "Elsa, co with ."
Then they saw Zhou Bai leading Elsa out with Primordial Spirit Ergence, while his body was left under Christina's control.
"Christina, go sowhere crowded and create an alibi for ."
Zhou Bai's Primordial Spirit, condensed into a ball, entered the ground, chasing after the three.
"I'm going to have so fun with them."
...
anwhile, Qiu Xingze, carefully holding the book, within a massive base 1800 ters within Donghua City.
The base spanned over 5 square kiloters, it was a special administrative area of the Heavenly Court stationed in Donghua City.
The Plague Departnt's Donghua City office was also located here.
One could say that for Donghua City, this area was not governed by them, not subject to any Donghua City regulations. It was like a country within a country.
