Le Yu suddenly rembered sothing and opened the system panel:
「Na: Le Yu / Qin Le Yin」
「Deaths: 6 tis」
「Available Points: 3 points」
「Qin Le Yin's Tribulation (refreshable): Master the Authority of Glory (60/100).」
「Personal Skills: Interdiate Lingxu Battle Technique ( ), Interdiate Blood-Drinking Eight Step Flow ( ), Basic Scorched Earth Technique ( ), Basic Flying Flower Battle Technique ( ), Basic Wolf-Hawk Battle Technique ( ), Basic Sword-Wielding Battle Technique ( ), Ice Blood Physique ( ), Neser Curse (cannot be removed)」
「Eternal Skills: Substitute, Interdiate Eight Step Flow Biting Battle Technique ( ), Basic Formless Battle Technique ( )」
「Challenge (refreshable): Command a large-scale war victory (0/1), requires total participants to reach over one hundred thousand, difficulty ☆☆☆☆.
Reward: 3 points available, and one eternal skill advanced upgrade opportunity (can only be used to upgrade interdiate skills to advanced skills).」
The first thing that caught his eye was naturally "Qin Le Yin's Tribulation", the progress of the 'Master the Authority of Glory' task had surprisingly reached 60, when he is released from prison, he might be able to directly rush to 100 and successfully cross the tribulation.
But Le Yu was not interested in seeing the system mock him, he stared at the ( ) sign behind Ice Blood Physique, and the system popped up new information:
「Next Level · Immortal Blood Physique (Requires 3 points to upgrade): Gain 'Emotionless Supre,' 'Ascension to Immortality,' 'Illuminating Spirit Platform' and other three abilities. Once upgraded, all future activations of 'Ice Blood Physique' will automatically be upgraded to 'Immortal Blood Physique'.」
In the mories of Wu Zhiqi, Le Yu knows that the so-called cold blood physique, is actually a hidden mutation resulting from the hybrid between humans and the demon race.
Besides the human-demon cold blood, there are human-dragon dragon blood, human-elf death blood... Due to the accumulation over a long period, these hybrid physiques have spread widely among humans, so much so that pure-blood humans no longer exist, most people inevitably have mixed blood genes, but few can activate the power in their bloodline.
The Demon Emperor smiled and believed that even unapparent other race blood can influence a person's character. Like those particularly vile and shaless people, such as Yin Yin's hidden thorn Zhengwei, have a higher cold blood content; while those more reckless and unruly, such as Cha Huan, surely have a higher dragon blood content.
However, the influence of other blood has no scientific basis, quite different from what Le Yu had seen in his past life, the talk about zodiac signs and blood types. If the other blood theory were to spread to future generations, "Thirty questions to find out which type of other blood you have the highest content of! I'm the most intelligent cold blood, how about you?" such kinds of quizzes might erge.
Anyway, it is definitely worth upgrading Ice Blood to Immortal Blood, even if he continues to Substitute in the future, he likely will need it.
More importantly, now the Ice Blood Physique can no longer suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart.
He wants to try Emotionless Supre, to see if it really can forget emotions.
Consus all points, "Ice Blood Physique" super evolution — "Immortal Blood Physique"!
In the silent and dark cell, the torrent in the veins roars like raging waves, continuous silent thunder reverberates throughout the body.
When everything calms down, Le Yu slowly opens his eyes, an indifferent pupil swirling with profound wisdom. The corner of his mouth slightly lifts, coldly sneering:
"Still not working, the more I think, the angrier I get."
This is quite a peculiar feeling, clearly the Immortal Blood Physique tells him that he's not angry, yet Le Yu stubbornly insists that he is angry. His emotions are not due to bodily hormonal secretion, but stem from the thunderous fury of the soul.
Why is he angry? There are so many reasons for his anger.
When he had already ready a strategic retreat plan, planning to follow the 'Escape to Rural Life' laid-back storyline, Ming Shuiyun directly vetoed his storyline, instead opening a 'Govern the World' conquest storyline, forcing him to stay, even the path laid out for him where the future Chief Minister of the Cabinet is already determined to be him, he can move into the Imperial Court at any ti.
Why does she decide for ?
Why does she think I am obsessed with power?
Why does she sacrifice for without asking?
Why doesn't she discuss with !
However, Le Yu has no right to criticize Ming Shuiyun at all—as Ming Shuiyun happens to do things 'for his good', but he used to do so much for Ming Shuiyun, plan to take Ming Shuiyun away, isn't that also 'for her good'?
It's just that Ming Shuiyun couldn't resist him before, everything was decided by Le Yu; now it's Le Yu's turn to not be able to resist her, she naturally has the power to decide.
Le Yu is angry at her presumption, her misunderstanding of him, her willfulness, her naivety, and her... sensibility.
He hates sensible people the most, because they always have to bear worse acceptance and results.
Yet what's more angering to Le Yu, is that he truly doesn't know if his feelings are genuine!
Although he always thought his Ice Blood Physique had immunized him against the Holy Sword imprint influence, the truth proves he's wrong, even the 'no influence' illusion is one of the influences of the Holy Sword imprint.
His feelings for Ming Shuiyun, concern, protection, are all mixed with impurities from the Holy Sword imprint, it's false, pathetic, unreasonable!
Perhaps later the real feelings developed, but how much is real? Is it fifty-fifty, or eighty-twenty, or even seventy-thirty?
Le Yu once thought there was nothing in this world that could hurt him anymore, he is an observer above this world. Just like an NPC in a ga can't jump out of the screen and attack players, nothing in this world, no one, or anything could hurt his essence—his soul!
But the words of Cha Shiyin and the spiritual brainwashing of the Holy Sword imprint indeed have broken his defenses!
Even his own feelings might be fake!
Then what else does he have that's real?
His body was stolen, his identity was soone else's, and even his mories were mixed with too many impurities he couldn't distinguish.
But none of that mattered. After acquiring "Substitute Life", Le Yu was already ntally prepared; everything in the world was fleeting to him, and he couldn't take anything with him between life and death.
Except for emotions.
This was his most treasured possession.
It was also the only reality he could preserve.
Yet now you tell him that even his most genuine, most secret, and most beautiful feelings could also be fake.
From head to toe, inside and out, from mory to emotions, nothing was real.
What should he do? What should he think?
A big reason why they so easily locked him in Blood Prison was because he no longer knew what to do.
He was very angry.
He was very tired.
After all, he was just a... human.
Perhaps, this was what angered him the most.
Humans avoid problems, which is why Le Yu thought about taking everyone to escape; humans fear, which is why Le Yu refused to reveal his secret, unable to gain the trust of Cha Shiyin and others; humans rage, which is why Le Yu couldn't even calm down to read a thriller!
All human rage, at its core, is the pain of one's own powerlessness... I must publish this sentence in "Youth Daily" so that everyone in the world apologizes for being human, it can't just be feeling awful...
Le Yu sighed deeply and sat idly on the bed.
He didn't read, didn't sleep, didn't cultivate, he closed his eyes and felt ti seep through his fingers.
Piano Le Yin, in the end, I neither beca a wise man nor a saint, but turned into a diocre person who can't pick up or put down, and can't even say things.
Just like you...
Unsure how much ti had passed, it was only when footsteps sounded from afar that Le Yu awoke from his idle state.
Is it breakfast ti already?
But soon, Le Yu sensed sothing amiss: One, two... there were two sets of footsteps!
When the jailer cos to deliver food, there should only be one person!
Le Yu couldn't help but harbor another suspicion—could it be that Shuiyun had already ascended, the battle is over? They're here to take out to enjoy wealth and prosperity?
Yet the two stopped in the middle of the passage, and one spoke:
"This is the key. His room is at the end of the passage. I'll watch from the seventh floor; if there's any news, I'll co down to inform you."
Le Yu almost thought he was hallucinating—this was Qian Yuya's voice!
How did she make it to the Eighth Blood Prison? Did she finally commit a cri?
"Okay, thank you for your help."
When that familiar yet strange voice rang out, Le Yu was completely stunned.
Soon, the heavy prison gate creaked open, and a silhouette in a green gown with a Luminous Stone lamp appeared at the bottom of the Eighth Blood Prison.
Appeared before Le Yu's eyes.
Appeared before Jing Zhengwei's eyes.
...Also appeared before Piano Le Yin's eyes.
Le Yu sat on the bed motionless, he hadn't yet reacted.
Instead, the visitor acted like she had just returned ho, placing the Luminous Stone lamp on the table. She suddenly rembered sothing and took out a silver wine bottle from her small bag, handing it to Le Yu: "Here."
Le Yu unscrewed the cap and took a sip—it was sweet Five-Flower Tea, but...
"Not cold."
"Brought from Xuanzhu, you should be grateful it hasn't spoiled yet." She said irritably.
Le Yu exchanged glances with her for a long ti, set the wine bottle aside, and laughed out loud: "I imagined countless tis the scene of us reuniting after a long ti, perhaps long-awaited, perhaps by a chance encounter, maybe in a vast mansion, or maybe at a roadside stall..."
"But I never thought reality would be so absurd, so bizarre, so unreasonable."
Qing Lan tilted her head slightly, smiling softly: "Neither did I."
