Chapter 471: Chapter 471 Wasteland Section (33)_1 Chapter 471: Chapter 471 Wasteland Section (33)_1 “Just materials?”
Upon hearing Ji Yicheng’s words, Fu Qian’s mind suddenly cleared, and the uncertainties he had before now had answers.
“So the reason you’re doing all this is just for materials?”
Fu Qian looked at Ji Yicheng.
He had found it odd before that it would be reasonable to say that he was using this place as a trap, but for him to save people, that was out of the question.
He didn’t even take sides, whether it was Sybil or Kelson. If they were close to death, he would save them.
It turned out the reason, in his eyes, was that these were all just materials, too precious to destroy.
The material-loving Ji Yicheng nodded with a cold smile.
Speaking of which, he suddenly became more assertive.
“That is to say, you’ve been recognized by the mirror?”
“Your wings, and the abilities you’ve shown before, did you obtain them through it?”
“That’s only a part of what you can see.”
Ji Yicheng extended his right hand, his tone filled with an indescribable intoxication.
“Its potential goes beyond your imagination. With every harvest, I feel my own growth, touching upon divinity.”
His entire right hand and arm gradually became clear and translucent, sparkling brilliantly.
“It’s a brand new sensation you’ve never experienced!”
“The unbounded pleasure of unrestrained growth!”
Seeing Ji Yicheng becoming increasingly intoxicated, speaking entirely in exclamations, Fu Qian hurriedly interrupted, fearing he would masturbate on the spot.
“The harvest you mentioned, does it mean killing those affected mentally?”
“It’s not killing, it’s purification.”
Ji Yicheng’s eyes still didn’t leave his hand.
“There is a shadow of corruption on them, and I’m just purifying that.”
“At least before their death, their souls were as pure as a saint’s.”
Fu Qian made no comment on his self-elevating actions and instead thought back to the behavior of everyone in the ruins.
“If I’m not mistaken, the shadow of corruption you mentioned only appears within the range of the ruins?”
“That’s right, the ruins can influence those within, manifesting each person’s corruption, and separating it from themselves.”
“Of course, you yourselves certainly can’t see it.”
“But in my eyes, those twisted, chaotic existences are crystal clear.”
So, was that why those people had become so otherworldly?
The dark side of human nature was forcibly made manifest, leaving only the bright side.
And the sudden change in personality in the middle was that both sides fighting for dominance?
Fu Qian’s thoughts were racing.
“And you can only kill, or should I say purify, effectively in that situation?”
Fu Qian followed his train of thought and continued asking.
“So, the real purpose of your plan with Angui was to get as many Transcendents as possible into that place, thereby turning them into your materials?”
“That place is too hidden.”
Ji Yicheng’s laughter contained a hint of pain, and in the next moment, a burst of blood gushed out, the sound of tearing flesh echoed as a pair of wings brutally sprouted from his back.
Compared to the ones in the ruins, these wings were much more realistic, giving a very visceral impression.
And although sparse, the pristine white feathers also emerged one by one, adorning them.
“If I only stayed there, the efficiency would be too low. I don’t have the time to wait for prey like that.”
“Not to mention if bizarre incidents continue, more people would see it as a forbidden zone and come less, or it would draw the overly strong gaze.”
“But if it’s a struggle between two families, deaths would be common, and less likely to arouse suspicion.”
Fu Qian clicked his tongue in wonder.
“You really spare no mercy for your own people, do you?”
To achieve this one’s plan, when it comes time to harvest the prey, it’s highly probable that not only Siren’s people can be chosen.
“There’s no need to make it sound so grand, I can tell, we’re cut from the same cloth.”
“Things like propriety, righteousness, integrity, and honor, you’ve always sneered at them, haven’t you?”
Ji Yicheng had a cold sneer on his face.
“Otherwise, I wouldn’t have made this suggestion.”
“Those people rely on the Ji Family for protection, and they must make contributions for it, a fair exchange of needs. I’ve never believed in so-called loyalty.”
“Just like that dog Angui, raised from a pup but turned to bite at the first opportunity.”
With each flap of his wings, Ji Yicheng’s entire form slowly floated in mid-air, descending like an angel in the slightly dark night.
“Do you feel this power?”
“I am willing to trade this secret for an exchange with you, what do you say?”
“Sounds interesting, but according to what you’re saying, I seem to be just a material in there, right?”
“I’ve told you, first, you need to earn the mirror’s recognition.”
Seeing that Fu Qian seemed quite interested, Ji Yicheng quickly responded.
“I will assist you through this process.”
“Is that so? Then who assisted you at that time?”
“I am different, I received direct recognition from the very beginning.”
Ji Yicheng answered honestly.
“I am puzzled too, but the fact remains that when I first saw that mirror, what I saw was a special scene.”
He pointed at himself.
If something abnormal is happening, then this guy must be the key to completing the task?
Fu Qian watched the excited Ji Yicheng, quietly contemplating in his mind.
While everyone else saw chaotic, distorted images, this individual saw an image of himself sprouting wings, no wonder he thinks of himself as the chosen one.
And from his description, Fu Qian seemed to have grasped the key to completing the task.
If that mirror is truly similar to the Statue of Sinful Goddess, then this individual is clearly the second Sir William.
What they do is essentially the same, which is to make an oath with a special entity and to hunt down and offer up something unique.
Sir William became a Sin Seeker and established a game of slaughter to collect Sinflame.
And this one, transforming into an angel, attempts to provoke a conflict between two houses, seizing the opportunity to purge sin.
Actually, it’s not a bad idea, but unfortunately, he is still too naive, not even grown to the level of a Demigod.
“What do you think? I’m very honest, indeed I can’t guarantee success, but with such an opportunity, trying it out won’t cause any loss for you, right?”
“You don’t need to worry about me taking the chance to harm you, I am someone who treasures life very much, and your peculiar bell, I have no desire to confront it.”
Ji Yicheng looked at Fu Qian eagerly.
“I’m sorry, but your proposal doesn’t sway me; thus, I can’t turn around for you.”
It was a pity that Fu Qian merely thought for two seconds before outright rejecting him.
“Think about it again.”
Think about it again…
Ji Yicheng was clearly quite affected, staring hard at Fu Qian.
But then suddenly, his expression shifted, and a dazzling brilliance burst forth from his body, shooting into the sky.
“What about adding this to the deal?”
At the same moment, a storm-like roar echoed from not far away.
Two familiar presences were hurrying over to this side.
“You really shouldn’t have wasted so much time talking!”
Ji Yicheng’s voice came again, but the tone had changed drastically. His body, suspended in the air, was like a torch in the darkness.
