Chapter 356: Is That It? No Twist, Even a TV Drama Would Be Unwatchable

Chapter 356: Is That It? No Twist, Even a TV Drama Would Be Unwatchable

In the cemetery, human footprints were scarce.

Wang Yuanyu wore a black cloth bag on her head, gazing at Qi Yuan with a hint of admiration and respect in her eyes.

This Bloodline Descendant seemed a bit crazy and eccentric, speaking with startling words, but many of his statements resonated deeply with her.

For instance:

"What's there to fear in death? Both sides are filled with familiar faces."

"Even sunlight can die, and its corpse is its shadow."

"I don't like good-looking girls because I don't have the patience to look at them."

Most importantly, his words about reality, illusion, and his attitude towards the mortal world left a deep impression on her.

So, who cares who Tu Kongming is!

The memories she cared about were the real ones.

"You said Ma Longhun never comes because he can't afford the cemetery tickets, right?" Suddenly, Qi Yuan turned to look at Wang Yuanyu.

"Huh?"

"If I had known, I wouldn't have set up ticket booths for this cemetery. Initially, I was worried about others disturbing it, so I turned the Ma Family Cemetery into a tourist attraction and charged an entrance fee.

I forgot that Ma Longhun might not have any money."

Qi Yuan suddenly realized, as if he had discovered the key to the matter.

Hearing this, Wang Yuanyu couldn't help but laugh and cry. She wondered if she had believed Qi Yuan's words and was infected by his madness.

"Mr. Qi, you're overthinking things," Wang Yuanyu said.

In truth, she was also quite curious about some of Qi Yuan's absurd statements, and even if they were nonsense, she would believe a portion of them.

At this moment, an elderly woman with a conflicted expression approached them.

This old woman was none other than Lady Wang.

She glanced at Wang Yuanyu and spoke softly, "Miss, I have something to discuss with Mr. Qi."

The implication of her words was that Wang Yuanyu should leave.

Hearing this, Wang Yuanyu was puzzled but tactfully stepped away.

The cemetery was now left to Qi Yuan and Lady Wang.

Before Lady Wang could speak, Qi Yuan took the initiative, "Hmm, pay the ticket fee. I get up early and stay late, diligently guarding the cemetery every day. I deserve some ticket money!"

Lady Wang had heard Qi Yuan's words many times before; apparently, Qi Yuan had asked her for ticket money in the past.

"Here are ten drops of Demon Essence Blood."

Lady Wang tossed the Demon Essence Blood to Qi Yuan, who happily accepted it.

Unfortunately, Ma Longhun's parents and clan were all minor demons, not renowned powerful demons.

Otherwise, charging an entrance fee would have been a lucrative business.

"Mr. Qi, I have an uncomfortable request, and I'm not sure if I should say it or not," Lady Wang thought, deciding to be polite first.

After all, to some extent, Bloodline Descendants were also their subordinates.

"1... 2... 3... Is that a positive or negative statement?" Qi Yuan's focus was always peculiar.

Lady Wang coughed and spoke with a conflicted expression, "Wang Yuanyu and Tu Kongming were Three Lifes' Lovers..."

"Why aren't they Seven Lifes' Enemies?" Qi Yuan interrupted Lady Wang.

Lady Wang paused and continued, "Wang Yuanyu came from a noble background, while Tu Kongming was just a poor boy. But he was very hard-working and diligent.

The two of them studied together, and over time, their feelings for each other grew.

However, Ma Longhun appeared, and he lusted after Wang Yuanyu's beauty. Secretly, he poisoned her.

To save the young miss, Tu Kongming ventured into the icy valley's cold pond and immersed himself in the freezing water to seek the Sacred Turtle.

The ice of the pond not only froze his body but also his soul.

At the cost of losing an arm, Tu Kongming finally attracted the Sacred Turtle, peeled its shell, and refined it into a powerful item to save the young miss."

Lady Wang spoke with emotion, seemingly touched by Tu Kongming's actions.

If there was a man who would do the same for her, she might also be moved.

"Poor little turtle, having its home stolen at such a young age," Qi Yuan sighed.

Hearing this, Lady Wang was speechless.

Shouldn't the focus be on the touching love story?

"After being saved, Wang Yuanyu was deeply moved by Tu Kongming's actions. They confirmed their relationship and fell in love, spending their days happily in the river of love. But, as always, happiness is fleeting." Lady Wang continued, with a hint of romantic delusion.

"Is it because someone peed in the river of love?" Qi Yuan felt clever, instantly seeing through the truth.

The fleeting happiness was due to someone peeing in the river of love, right? That's what made them uncomfortable.

"..." Lady Wang glanced at Qi Yuan, her lips twitching. She took a deep breath to calm herself, "Because... Ma Longhun appeared.

No one expected that he would dare to defy the world and collude with outsiders.

On the day of Wang Yuanyu and Tu Kongming's wedding, Ma Longhun led three thousand outsiders to kidnap the bride.

Naturally, Wang Yuanyu refused, but Ma Longhun, in a fit of rage and humiliation, decided that if he couldn't have her, no one would. He attacked Wang Yuanyu, but Tu Kongming blocked the blow, sacrificing himself. Already injured, Tu Kongming perished, and Miss Tu followed suit, committing suicide out of love."

"Is that it?" Qi Yuan was stunned, "That's boring, no twist?

With the current screenwriter's imagination, shouldn't he have kidnapped the man instead? Could there be a sequel where Ma Longhun resurrects Tu Kongming's corpse as a zombie, and they force themselves on each other?"

"Lady Wang sighed and placed a hand on her forehead. She took a deep breath once more, "In this world, the events of the past are repeating themselves.

Only by doing so can Miss truly be revived, and only then can this world be saved from collapse. The intricacies within are too complex for me to understand."

But... the world line must be replayed."

However, some minor issues have arisen.

Up till now, Miss has yet to fall in love with Tu Kongming."

This is extremely dangerous. Time is running out for Miss, and for this world.

Please, for the greater good and the sake of the world, temporarily... do not meet with Miss!"

Lady Wang bowed solemnly, her voice filled with sincerity.

Qi Yuan was taken aback, "What does this have to do with me?"

"Miss has spent a lot of time with you, and she might develop feelings for you." Lady Wang said helplessly.

It was undeniable that Qi Yuan's appearance was exceptionally handsome. Although his speech was sometimes incoherent, which could ruin the aesthetic, he was quite charming when he was quiet.

To exaggerate, Lady Wang had spent some time with Qi Yuan, and even her body, which had endured thousands of years, felt like it was about to menstruate.

"Sigh, being handsome brings too many troubles. Honestly, I don't think I'm that handsome, just ordinary."

Qi Yuan was imitating someone who didn't recognize his wife's beauty, but in this case, he didn't recognize his own handsomeness.

"This isn't my fault, and... doesn't it seem like Wang Yuanyu doesn't have feelings for me either?" Qi Yuan stretched lazily, exuding a relaxed demeanor.

Indeed, he hadn't sensed any love from Wang Yuanyu.

At most, he felt a sense of admiration and camaraderie.

If there was love, Qi Yuan would have sensed it.

Since he had sensed nothing, Qi Yuan would never be 'passive', 'irresponsible', or 'leading someone on'.

"It's pointless telling me this. Wang Yuanyu not loving Tu Kongming isn't because she loves me; it's probably just that she doesn't like him.

Besides, don't bother me with such trivial matters.

It's not intriguing, there's no twist, it's boring." Qi Yuan shook his head, showing no interest in the story of Three Lifes' Lovers.

Upon hearing this, Lady Wang's expression changed slightly.

She spoke in a deep voice, "What I say is not false; it concerns the survival of the world.

Not a single mistake can be made. It's better to err on the side of caution than to let it slide.

Please, stay away from Miss and let her return to her path with Tu Kongming!"

Qi Yuan shook his head, "What does their return to the path have to do with me?"

"It's about the survival of the world!"

"I thought it was something major, but it's just a server crash, right?

You should sacrifice a programmer to the heavens. Look at my hairline; do I look like a programmer? Oh, I forgot, you're an NPC, you can't kill programmers." Qi Yuan waved his hand dismissively, then his expression softened as he remembered something, "Oh, by the way, Lady Wang, are you married? I have a friend who's been looking for a 'wow-worthy' wife, and I think you'd be perfect.

Even if you're already married, it's fine; just get a divorce. My friend doesn't mind."

Qi Yuan thought of Bei He Han Xianyun; he still cared for his friend and worried about his singlehood.

The elderly woman, Lady Wang, felt a little dazed. She couldn't quite follow Qi Yuan's train of thought.

What does this all mean?

"I've dedicated my life to the world and have no time for personal love." The elderly Lady Wang refused.

Hearing this, Qi Yuan felt a bit disappointed.

It seemed Han Xianyun's quest for a partner would be difficult.

"If you won't marry, then forget it. I won't waste words with you. Don't disturb me while I play the system. I'm about to start cultivating." Qi Yuan's mood shifted quickly.

Lady Wang's head spun as she tried to process Qi Yuan's words.

She could only understand half of what he said.

She looked deeply into Qi Yuan's eyes before finally disappearing.

In the cemetery, Qi Yuan gazed at the tombstone before him, his mind flashing with various scenes.

After experiencing so many worlds, he felt he had caught a whiff of something.

"Oh dear, I must stop thinking and start using my brain. I don't want to be a fool."

In the 1691st chapter of the book, there's not a single mistake!

Qi Yuan couldn't be bothered to figure out the truth behind everything.

Only strength was of utmost importance.

Conspiracies, truths, and calculations... were they useful?

They were.

But as long as Qi Yuan was powerful enough, all conspiracies and calculations would be... obliterated with a single punch.

"You have consumed 100 Demon Race Essence Blood, gaining 100 days of cultivation."

"With the Explosive Bird Strike Fist, you've improved.

Damage against flying creatures is increased by 50%.

Against birds, defense penetration is increased by 50%."

As the words sank in, Qi Yuan's eyes widened.

"Doesn't that mean all men in the world will fear me?"

"Sigh, why don't girls grow wings? If they did, I'd be invincible."

Qi Yuan's thoughts wandered.

"Wait, girls can't be defined. Who knows if they have wings? What if they're hidden in their crotch? I haven't seen it, so how would I know?"

Stopping his wild thoughts, Qi Yuan closed his eyes to rest.

Suddenly, a deep, aged voice resonated.

"Qi Yuan... I never thought I'd still be alive."

This voice resonated from within Qi Yuan's body.

Qi Yuan's eyes lit up, "Thunder God Lao Deng, you're finally awake."

Hearing the long-awaited voice, Qi Yuan's heart was filled with mixed emotions.

However, the reunion with an old acquaintance was as calm as water.

In the Origin World, Thunder God Venerable's eyes shifted, filled with infinite melancholy, "I had already prepared for death, ready to fall with the Mundane Heart World.

You, young one, are truly formidable, to have even slaughtered the Yang Immortals."

For Qi Yuan, Thunder God Venerable felt respect and gratitude.

After all, the Mundane Heart World was his home, the innate world where countless lives thrived.

The might of the Yang Immortals was unparalleled.

Back then, Qi Yuan had turned the tide, displaying extraordinary combat power.

But with two Yang Immortals as their enemies, he never thought of winning.

"Let's not bring up the past. Thunder God Lao Deng, hurry up and cultivate. Give me some gold coins." Qi Yuan urged.

The Thunder God Venerable, who had left the Mundane Heart World, could finally be considered truly in his element.

After all, with his limitless cultivation insights, Thunder God Venerable faced no bottlenecks in his cultivation. Reaching the Yang Immortal realm was merely a matter of time.

If the Thunder God Venerable, who had stepped into the Mythic realm in the Mundane Heart World, were to appear here, he would likely break through to the Yang Immortal realm in an instant.

This was related to the cultivation insights provided by Qi Yuan, the uniqueness of the Primordial Divine Spirits, and the connection to the ancient clan's ancestral land.

"Don't rush me, young one. I'm cultivating. I'll strive to reach the Yang Immortal realm by the time I meet you again." Thunder God Venerable spoke with a sigh, radiating brilliance.

When was it that the once unattainable Yang Immortal realm had become so easily within his grasp?

Moreover, Qi Yuan's Divine Embryo and those Primordial Divine Spirits were all on par with him.

With their awakening and liberation from the innate world's constraints, they were like fish in water, and breaking through to the Yang Immortal realm was as simple as drinking water.

"Hurry up. My enemies are too strong. One Yang Immortal might not be enough.

There are also others in this world of yours. Take care of them and help them awaken and grow stronger." Qi Yuan said.

Although his Divine Embryo had taken root in the Origin World, they were still relying on their instincts, and none had fully awakened like Thunder God Venerable.

"Alright, alright, unlike Thunder God Venerable.

"Fine, fine, fine. I'll go look for the others now." Thunder God Venerable complained, "I just woke up, and you're already giving me tasks."

Despite the complaint, his tone was filled with delight and pride.

"I have a plan!" Qi Yuan exclaimed excitedly.

Hearing this, Thunder God Venerable couldn't help but touch his forehead, "What kind of plan is it this time?"

Qi Yuan's plans were always rough and simplistic, hardly deserving to be called plans, more like nonsense.

Yet, these crude plans always succeeded.

This left Thunder God Venerable speechless.

"I want to acquire this game, but I don't have the money.

So, let's do this: we'll use force to plunder! The plan is divided into three steps.

First, you'll unite with the other citizens, enhance your strength, and take over the world below!

Second, as your strength grows, you'll help me take over Gong Xing and Brilliant Star.

Third, with the world under our control, I'll work hard to complete the tasks and advance to the Human Martial Lord, the Spirit Martial Lord, and even the Ten Thousand Dao Martial God."

The perfect plan, invincible, unbeatable!"

Qi Yuan always got excited when making plans, and he felt his mind becoming clearer.

If this were on Blue Star, he would be so excited that he couldn't sleep, and he might need to take some melatonin.

Some people might even need to use some glue.

"Hehe, your plan this time is less detailed."

"You reminded me. This time, I made a big mistake; I didn't mark the time.

Hmm, since your time flows faster, forty years in your world are equivalent to one year in ours.

So, for the first step, you should strive to have everyone reach the Yang Immortal realm within three thousand years.

For the second step, I'll strive to unify Gong Xing within a hundred years!" Qi Yuan was a bit scared.

Even the wisest can make mistakes.

The ancients did not deceive me!

Even someone as brilliant as him could make such a mistake, let alone others.

"The most powerful force in the lower realm is called ASEAN.

ASEAN has several Martial Lords, and their strength is barely passable.

But... they have a mysterious strong man named Dong Jun backing them.

This strong man might be a Yang Immortal.

Moreover, his methods... are even more formidable than those of ordinary Yang Immortals."

Thunder God Venerable spoke with caution, sharing the information he had gathered in the Origin World with Qi Yuan.

"The Origin World, with the Mountain and Sea Sovereign Brush, creates countless Mountain Sea Scrolls? Could this guy be a programmer?" Qi Yuan chuckled.

The Yang Immortal realm, he knew of the Sky Position realm and the Ultimate Reason realm.

Creating a world like the Mountain Sea Scrolls as a programmer belonged to what realm? "No problem. Let him be as strong as he wants; I have the Explosive Kill Flying Bird Fist, so I'm not afraid of him!"
