Chapter 138: 127 Ideas Part One

’What the hell? Lust??!’ Li Chengyi found it hard to imagine just how obsessed with physical pleasures one had to be to reach a level of plus 2 intensity?

He looked around and made sure that nobody was paying any attention to him, the only person who had spoken was Zhuang Yijing.

’This just got interesting.’ Li Chengyi suddenly became intrigued.

An individual who could add 2 just by encountering someone else was someone he could not afford to miss; such firmly determined material was not something he could easily find everywhere.

He pretended to notice nothing and turned his head to continue walking out.

They weren’t familiar with each other yet, now was not the time for contact, there would be chances later...

As the distance between the two increased, because the Evil Thoughts were not eliminated in time, the two points of added lust slowly faded away...

This made Li Chengyi understand the mechanism of Evil Thoughts’ increase even more.

’It must be that after Evil Thoughts are generated, I have to actively eliminate them in time, either by moral destruction or by converting them into other emotions. Only then can they be absorbed as Evil Thoughts.

If it’s just about dragging out time, it doesn’t count....’

He made his way back to the farm, but only got halfway there, in the middle of the grassy area.

Li Chengyi’s phone rang; it was a call from Da Xiong.

He picked it up and pressed to answer.

"Brother Cheng, Sister Tang is about to face her tribulation, she just got her period," Da Xiong said solemnly on the phone.

"...Got a premonition? Can you talk normally?" Li Chengyi said, exasperated.

He had thought that among all the people, Da Xiong was the most normal. Now, it seemed that this guy just hid his true colors deeper than others.

"Alright, Sister Tang got a premonition. It’s the Blind Spot of the staircase, like a never-ending staircase. She just came out; I’m at her place keeping her company," Da Xiong corrected himself.

"You guys are definitely better than me at researching and finding prototypes. What preparations need to be done? I can come over at any time for a Flash Appearance," Li Chengyi offered without hesitation.

Rainbow Candy had just given him a hand before, as she was injured due to merging with the Tightening Grasp Blind Spot.

Now that she’s immediately got a premonition, he would offer his help both emotionally and rationally.

"We’re still looking for the prototype, and the information we’ve collected isn’t much. Just having a premonition of the Blind Spot isn’t enough for a Flash Appearance; only when someone completely enters, and the Blind Spot becomes stable and continuous, can we perform a good Flash Appearance from outside. So there’s no rush right now. As for preparations, Xiao Zhong and I are already working on it," Da Xiong replied.

"That’s good, we can’t help much with other things, but when it comes to taking action, we can certainly do it," Li Chengyi said earnestly.

"...So far, no other people have been found inside, and since the Feiyi Exoskeleton will lose some functions and have its power weakened inside, we’ll decide after determining the difference in the flow of time," continued Da Xiong.

"That’s good, I’m ready whenever you need me," Li Chengyi answered.

"Thanks, Brother Cheng!"

The call ended.

Li Chengyi let out a sigh of relief, his mind, which had been a bit sluggish earlier, suddenly started to become active again.

Hearing about the emergence of another Blind Spot, he felt not danger, but a faint excitement stirring within him.

’That’s right... In such a peaceful society, with the Evil Flower within me, there’s no place to use my martial skills. I can’t expose myself, act out, or even freely use my Flower Language Ability.

But the Blind Spot, where I can be unrestrained and where the strong survive, suits me better...’

He came to realize.

’Perhaps, my next Flower Language Technique should be one that benefits the development of modern society. If I could have the most advanced Flying Yi, the most powerful intelligence network, and the support of research institutions, maybe my exploration of Blind Spots can climb several steps further...

At least those Silent Store goods stored away might find some use.’

Hadn’t Utopia used the Silent Store just like that before?

If they could grow and expand, there’s no reason he couldn’t surpass them with the Flower Language Ability as his trump card.

Back at the farm’s lawn, some people had already set up a portable KTV in the pavilion nearby, using a miniature microphone to sing their hearts out.

Although the singing was off-key, combined with the barbecue stalls and drinks cart nearby, the atmosphere was still quite good.

The farm had also called in a small band for accompaniment.

Li Chengyi returned without drawing the attention of anyone and joined his parents and older sister.

They had their own table of food, eating at a small restaurant within the farm.

Outside the restaurant, on the lawn, Li Qingpeng, Zhao Funing, and the others were singing and clapping, the mood lively.

"Xiao Yi, aren’t you going to play with He Dongzi and the others? It’s rare to see so many people here," mother Feng Yurong asked.

"It’s not interesting, too many people make it too noisy, I don’t like it," Li Chengyi shook his head.

"I’m going to leave after eating in a bit, I have something to attend to," Li Chengjiu said coldly from the side.

Her temper seemed to have improved somewhat from before, but she always appeared weighed down by heavy thoughts and seemed very tired.

Li Chengyi had asked the boss to help inquire, but they couldn’t find any specific details.

They only knew that she visited the suburbs every day, out of the range of Heavenly Eye, and they didn’t know why.

"Then, do you... need any money?" Li Zhao was an honest man who struggled for a long time to communicate with his daughter and had to resort to the blunt approach.

"I don’t need it. I didn’t pass the exam; there’s no use for it," Li Chengjiu replied coldly.

"If you have any difficulties, talk to us. Although we might not be able to help, we can still offer you some advice..." Feng Yurong spoke warmly.

"Can you be quieter?" Li Chengjiu frowned.

"Can you please show some respect when you speak to mom and dad?" Li Chengyi suddenly spoke up.

Silence!

The atmosphere at the dining table froze instantly.

Li Chengjiu’s eyes widened as she stared intently at her brother.

The way she spoke was not the first time, but Li Chengyi had never retorted back before.

But this time he unexpectedly spoke up?

Li Zhao and Feng Yurong had already grown accustomed to their eldest daughter being rude to them, but they were somewhat at a loss with Li Chengyi’s sudden outburst in their defense.

"Say that again, what you just said?" Li Chengjiu stood up abruptly, pointing at Li Chengyi.

"I said," Li Chengyi slowly sipped his tea. "Your attitude just now was very impolite."

He lifted his eyes and met the other’s gaze, not backing down at all.

"What’s the problem with what I said?"

The lively atmosphere outside, in the corner of the restaurant, the mood suddenly shifted from warm to freezing.

"You, come out!" Li Chengjiu pushed away from the table, pointed at Li Chengyi, and walked towards the exit of the restaurant.

Li Chengyi smiled. He hadn’t come before, had not replaced his predecessor, but now, he wouldn’t tolerate seeing the same rude behavior again.

He did not mind personally taking his predecessor’s place to teach this "dear sister" a lesson.

After all, he was a Blind Spot Individual.

Blind Spot Individuals feared nothing, no respect for anything.

Pushing away from the table, he stood up and walked towards the outside of the restaurant.

"Xiao Yi! Don’t be rash. You know your sister’s temper..." Feng Yurong quickly got up, anxiously grabbing his arm.

"It’s okay, Mom. My sister and I are just having a friendly exchange, no big deal."

He gently pried Feng Yurong’s fingers open, took off his jacket, and put it on the back of the chair before walking out.

He had long wanted a good "exchange" with this sister, but had been too busy before to find the chance.

This time was just the right opportunity to let it happen.

Stepping out of the small restaurant and bypassing the karaoke accompaniment outside, they arrived at a corner of the farm near the stream.

Several wild cats drinking quietly by the stream were startled by the approaching pair and hastily scattered.

Li Chengjiu was already standing by the stream, arms crossed, looking at him coldly.

"Did a few days in the gym make you think you’re strong and brave now? Seems like you haven’t been put in your place for too long; you’re itching for a beating."

"Actually, I’ve been wanting to teach you a lesson for a while, just never had the time. That attitude you have at home, our issues aren’t new, and they’ve been accumulating for many years, haven’t they?" Li Chengyi said calmly.

After coming outside, he didn’t seem as angry as he was in the restaurant.

"Fine, since you are my sister, I’ll let you have a go," Li Chengjiu said with a scornful smile, pointing at her chest.

"You can give it your all, your worst, just if you can land a punch on me, I’ll stand still today and let you hit me!"

Tch!

No sooner had her words fallen than Li Chengyi, under the moonlight, turned into a blur of motion, rushing to her side rapidly.

One punch.

Li Chengjiu barely had time to raise her hand when she saw a fist already in front of her face.

’How can it be so fast!!??’

’How is this possible!!?’

Her eyes widened in disbelief.

She strived desperately to raise her hands to protect her face, but it was too slow, always too slow, too late!

When her hands were still a fist’s distance from protecting her face,

Li Chengyi’s fist had already struck her left cheek.

Thump!!

A muffled sound.

Li Chengjiu’s head snapped back as she staggered several steps, almost losing her balance and falling to the ground.

Blood gushed from her nose, splattering on the grass, spreading in a faint dark red.

"How does it feel now?" Li Chengyi stood in place without pursuing, merely watching her calmly.

"You... practiced traditional Combat Technique?!" Li Chengjiu steadied herself, touched her nose, and instantly recognized the style her brother used.

"Still not proficient. But, it should be sufficient to handle you," Li Chengyi answered.

Although he had just landed a punch on his sister, he could clearly feel at the moment of impact that most of his strength had been deflected, leaving only a bit of it to hit the target.

That meant Li Chengjiu might not have taken many Strengthening Injections, and her physical conditioning was far inferior to his, which had been enhanced by the Floral Dress.

Reaction speed, strength, and physical constitution were all inferior to his.

Additionally, because she was caught off guard, that’s why she couldn’t defend in time.

"Interesting..." Li Chengjiu chuckled with a few ’hehs,’ cleaned the blood from her nose, and pressed on both sides to quickly stop the bleeding.

"But, do you think that after all these years of hard training, I’d be so easily beaten by a good-for-nothing like you!!?"

"Impossible!!!"

She growled lowly and dashed forward, and as she neared Li Chengyi, she made a feint with a step, appearing to prepare a knee or kick.

It looked like she was aiming for a kick, but actually, it was a sudden elbow strike from her left hand aiming for Li Chengyi’s chest.

Thud.

Li Chengyi caught the elbow with one hand, feeling a slight heft to it even with his strength, and was somewhat surprised at Li Chengjiu’s power.

Given that his physical condition had already reached the limit of a one-ton punch without wearing the Floral Dress,

For her to make it feel somewhat heavy to him,

One could imagine that the sister must have received high value-for-money Strengthening Injections during military school.

The price of officially ordered Strengthening Injections by the state would certainly be much cheaper than those circulating in the market.

He suddenly remembered, Li Chengjiu had always been going out to work for money, constantly also taking money from home, and had taken the exams multiple times already.

Now, it seems it might have been to get Strengthening Injections.
