Chapter 518: 475 straight line one

Suiyang.

In the pale hospital room, bundles of various colored flowers were piled in the corner, turning the floor into an ocean of fresh blooms.

Paine stared wide-eyed, quietly looking at the ceiling above him.

He had been waking up like this for a long time, but unlike before, he didn’t want to do anything, he just wanted to lie there quietly.

Many things, he couldn’t remember...

He only remembered that he seemed to have been injured, then lost consciousness, and then woke up here.

"How are you doing? How’s your recovery?" The door to the room was pushed open, and a pretty petite girl with twin ponytails, dressed in a leather jacket and jeans walked in.

It was Rainbow Candy’s sister.

"It’s you... I’m fine," Paine said, remembering her, not because of past memories, but because she had often come to see him after he woke up, this person before him.

According to her, they had been close before.

It’s just that he had lost his memory and had forgotten a lot.

Oh yes, she said her name was Father of the Rainbow, a somewhat strange name, but it didn’t matter.

"Even if you’re feeling better, you still need to get out of bed and move around. Brother Yi had me especially come to take care of you, and now I’m almost becoming the company’s caring and loving director," Dragon Gate Crane said with a mixture of helplessness and sorrow.

Indeed, after his previous attempt to challenge Sister Tang’s authority, he had since been surrounded by all kinds of twisted values through psychological infiltration of information.

A variety of videos, advertisements, and news about transsexuals from all over the world completely made him accept the idea that there’s nothing wrong with changing sex, that in the new world, the foremost thing is sublimation.

Everything else is an illusion.

To trap humanity in gender is far too superficial.

He should pursue maximization of interests. If his gender transition succeeded, he would gain much superior treatment than before, after all, his identity post-transition would be Rainbow Candy’s sister, the current god of hackers’ sister.

In short, Black Sister!

By then, with his abilities, his background, his looks, it wouldn’t be too hard to marry into a powerful family and become a part of the ruling class, he could even bear children for the Yan Family to guide his future children to the position of Family Head...

’God damn Black Sister! God damn looks! God damn position of the Family Head!! Go to hell, all of it!!’

Dragon Gate Crane shouted into the open window.

Ah!!!!!!

His voice was loud as if venting his inner frustrations and sorrows.

In this information age, facing the endless information bombardment from Sister Tang, he had gone from initial fear and resistance to now a certain understanding and acceptance of transitioning, no longer so resistant!

This was simply...

"Are you okay?" Paine asked, sitting up in bed, looking at him with some concern.

"I’m fine, just a bit tired," Dragon Gate Crane turned back to look at him, "Actually, you can refuse Brother Yi."

"I can?" Paine asked back.

"..." Dragon Gate Crane fell silent.

"He would kill me, right?" Paine replied very realistically, "Even if he doesn’t kill me, he would abandon me... I don’t like that. Right now, many people need me, appreciate me... I’m happy."

"Aren’t you afraid?" Dragon Gate Crane frowned.

"My mother’s treatment has improved a lot, and those who wronged my family have been dealt with by the company. You don’t know... when Sister Da Xiong brought my enemies before me to let me decide how to deal with them, I actually..."

Paine paused.

"I was actually quite perplexed..."

"Perplexed?"

"Yes... I don’t know what else I can do, what I should do. The more I look at this world, the more meaningless it seems," Paine said, only eight years old, but as if he was forced to mature by the Floral Bead, his mindset and maturity far exceeded that of ordinary people.

"Later, I found out that my abilities were very suitable for helping others..."

"So you face what you are afraid of just to help others?" Dragon Gate Crane couldn’t understand.

"But what else can I do? What should I do?" Paine smiled, "When someone sincerely expresses their gratitude to you... that moment of satisfaction, it’s as if something of mine is transferred to them." Paine’s maturity surpassed Dragon Gate Crane’s understanding.

He had experienced too many Blind Spots, where the flow of time was completely different from the outside world.

Days inside could be just a moment outside.

In reality, Paine might look only eight years old, but his actual age was far beyond that.

"Many people have told me to please keep it going."

"If you always keep going, you’ll get tired, you’ll collapse one day, right?" Dragon Gate Crane sighed.

"I might give up, then ask Sister Da Xiong to give me a new identity, to live as a common person," Paine said.

"..." Dragon Gate Crane fell silent, well aware that Paine’s abilities meant he could never live an ordinary life.

Moreover, whether it’s Brother Yi or the many Blind Spot Individuals, they would not let him go, the beacon of hope that he was.

As long as Blind Spots continued to appear, he would never have peace.

"Brother Yi told us that he would lead everyone to find a way to completely get rid of the Blind Spots," Dragon Gate Crane spoke up.

"As soon as everyone is free of them, you’ll be able to live the life you want..."

"Thank you, Sister," Paine smiled, "I’ve always been looking forward to that day."

He lowered his head, a faint glimmer of gold flashing in his eyes.

No one wants to be controlled, no one.

In the face of coercion, all peace and friendliness are just a facade.

He just kept gathering strength, continuously. During this process, before the goal is achieved, any malice can be detected by that person.

White Star Royal Area.

The tall figure of White Emperor looked down from on high, watching Li Chengyi as he entered the room.

"You destroyed fate...."

She looked very much like a fake assembly robot, except for the eyeballs, all other parts had been completely mechanized.

As she stood up, nine pure white orbs of light automatically lit up behind White Emperor, constantly dancing around her.

"Fate? What fate? Like the fate of many people I’ve saved?" Li Chengyi was noncommittal.

These Yuan Ying individuals were all babbling about things that others couldn’t understand at all.

"Many people from the Garden of Fate Team have had their original trajectories completely changed by you. Your choice of name indeed proved very prescient. You... were supposed to die a year ago from sudden cardiac arrest,"

White Emperor said indifferently.

"But you survived, and even gained the power to change everything."

"Where is the Stone of Hiding? Give it to me," Li Chengyi said.

"Xindela was supposed to die in a car accident while searching for his son. He is still alive as well...." White Emperor continued.

"Hand over the Stone of Hiding to me, and I can leave right now," Li Chengyi said.

"Rainbow Candy should have died at the seventh Blind Spot, vanishing from the world completely, but you changed everything, turning her into the current God of the Void," White Emperor said.

"Can you give me the Stone of Hiding first? You can say whatever you want once I’m gone," Li Chengyi said.

"And there’s Paine, who was supposed to be the one to form the core of the Blind Spot Organization. Ten years later, he would establish the largest Blind Spot Organization in Twin Star, searching for traces of Lien, but you found him early and made use of him...." White Emperor said with a frown.

"Forget it, if you won’t give me the Stone of Hiding, then I’ll find it myself."

Li Chengyi began searching all over the palace, his movements incredibly fast, almost teleporting from one place to another.

White Emperor, as if seeing nothing, continued speaking her piece.

Only, her body began to turn from white to ash, and there was a faint blackening taking place.

Until Li Chengyi had searched the entire palace without finding any clues to the Stone of Hiding, then he began to approach her, ready to lift her imperial robes.

Inside the more than ten meters of imperial robes, surely many things could be hidden.

That’s what Li Chengyi thought, and what he was prepared to do. His hand was already reaching for her skirt.

"How dare you!!" White Emperor finally couldn’t restrain herself and suddenly lashed out with a slap towards him.

Li Chengyi raised his hand to block.

The small hand met the large one abruptly.

Bang!

With a loud explosion, a Giant Strength Imprint lit up on Li Chengyi’s chest.

A similar Giant Strength Imprint lit up on the chest of White Emperor.

Both of them noticed the anomaly on the other’s body, and even through their clothes, they could sense the similar fluctuations of the imprints.

"Huh?" Li Chengyi stared at her in some surprise.

Not that he was shocked by her strength being a bit stronger than his current level, as he hadn’t yet revealed his Bai Lu true form. What surprised him was that, at the moment, he intended to use Shadow Replacement to slip into her shadow, switching the attack and defense for a contest over White Emperor’s body.

But to his surprise, he failed...

And moreover... this White Emperor... was somewhat strange...

She seemed....

Li Chengyi eyed her closely, feeling that something was off.

This individual.... seemed to be completely hollow!?

At that moment, the sound of sirens and alarms neared rapidly from outside the palace, with more and more people approaching....

Without hesitation, Li Chengyi’s body expanded swiftly, and he leaped up.

Countless fog-like Blood Essences exploded, enveloping the surroundings.

Boom!!

Within the white fog, a dark shadow flashed past, his entire body ballooning in size, with Blood Essence and Soft Qi bursting forth simultaneously, stacking together.

His eyes ignited with red flames as he lunged forward with a punch.

All the air currents inside the palace seemed to be drawn towards that punch.

A massive vortex of airflow formed, centered on the punch as the origin point.

The swirling white vortex appeared to increase resistance, yet strangely increased the speed of Li Chengyi’s charge even more.

His fist moved faster!

This was Void NightStep!

To avoid long nights full of dreams, he decided to strike first with a punch to test the waters. That was his plan.

Boom!

But what he absolutely didn’t expect was that White Emperor raised her hand in an attempt to resist, but... she had no time.

Her fastest speed was only twelve times the speed of sound, while Li Chengyi’s punch, combined with the Void NightStep technique, had reached a slightly faster level.

So....

A thunderous bang.

White Emperor.

Exploded.

Like a giant porcelain vase, it burst violently, turning into countless white and black shards that whirled in every direction.

At the same time, the three Yuan Ying individuals on their way to Red Rock Star, sitting in a spaceship preparing for a space jump, all shuddered.

"Something happened to White Emperor’s sub-body!"

The man with the small mustache stood up abruptly.

"All my hard work for nothing! It was that man!"

"Li Chengyi from the Garden of Fate, that ’Flower King’?!" The black squirrel’s expression showed obvious irritation.

"He actually made it directly to White Emperor and even burst the sub-body with a punch.... This guy..." It clearly wanted to go back.
