Chapter 45: Chapter 45 Me! Not a Genius! Just Efficient Practice!_1

The sudden decrease in his Qi and Blood Value was incredibly frustrating for Su Yan. And it also carried a touch of faint sadness. You see, out of nowhere, why did the Qi and Blood Value just drop like that?

"Sigh." Su Yan let out a deep sigh, feeling somewhat distressed. He truly hadn’t anticipated that the Qi and Blood Value could actually decrease. This was absolutely unbelievable!

While Su Yan was feeling a bit melancholic about this, a string of numeric information suddenly flashed through the depths of his mind: Spirit +1+1+1...

Huh?!?!?

Looking at the fleeting numbers in his mind, Su Yan was stunned for a moment before quickly realizing what was probably happening. Thinking it over, he tried to stabilize his emotions as much as possible.

Then, sure enough, the reverse numeric information flashed through the depths of his mind again: Spirit -1-1-1...

At this moment, Su Yan finally understood what the decrease in values was all about. It turned out that the increase in Qi and Blood Value and spiritual power gained when experiencing the Seven Emotions were all temporary attributes—a temporary buff. And when the state of the Seven Emotions ended, those temporary attribute increases disappeared. This was why his Qi and Blood Value or spiritual power would suddenly decrease by -1-1-1...

It seems... the Devouring value of this Seven Emotion Gu Type is a bit of a chicken rib, far inferior to ordinary Exotic Flower Fruits. But then, even a mosquito’s leg is meat. After all, it’s better than nothing.

With that in mind, Su Yan directly asked the convenience store owner, "Speaking of which, that seed I just ate... it’s like the poisons that villains in martial arts novels give to their subordinates, right? The kind that ensures their subordinates’ absolute loyalty, killing them instantly if they commit any act of betrayal."

"Well, you could understand it that way." The convenience store owner nodded, then smiled. "But rest assured, once you complete a certain number of tasks assigned by the Flower God, the Flower God will help you remove this restriction."

"Is that so..." Su Yan’s voice trailed off. Then, he asked again, "Do you have any more of those seeds left?"

The convenience store owner was puzzled. "I do have some," he said, curious. "But what do you want them for? Do you have a suitable candidate in mind to recruit into our Demon Plant Clan?"

Su Yan explained, "No. It’s just that I think eating only one ’poison’ seed isn’t enough to demonstrate my loyalty. I want to eat a few more."

The convenience store owner: ???

After hearing Su Yan’s response, the convenience store owner was completely dumbfounded. What kind of crazy stunt is this? he thought. Complaining about too little poison and wanting more? Is this person an idiot? That’s it, Old Shu misjudged; this guy probably fried his brain with a fever when he was young. No one with a normal brain would ever say something so preposterous.

The convenience store owner was internally fuming but kept a calm face. "Su Yan, one seed is enough. If you really want to express loyalty, just complete more missions. The Flower God is watching."

What? Do more missions? Su Yan was instantly displeased. Is this about showing loyalty? I’m looking to fleece them!

Thinking this, Su Yan immediately declared righteously, "No! You must make my loyalty crystal clear. Give me all the seeds you have on you! I need to Devour them! Otherwise, my joining just now counts for nothing, and we’ll go our separate ways, never to interact again!"

The convenience store owner looked troubled. "Su Yan, the Seven Emotion Gu Type is very rare and precious. I only have two left, and I might need them later."

What? He might need them later? Su Yan grew even more displeased. This traitor to the Human race actually plans on using the seeds to harm others! That’s intolerable! I definitely can’t let him keep those seeds; they must be Devoured by me.

Thinking this, Su Yan’s expression changed dramatically. He immediately pressured the convenience store owner, "I’ve expressed my loyalty to you so clearly, and this is all the sincerity you show in return?" As soon as he finished speaking, he added with a disappointed look, "It seems there’s no place for me in the Demon Plant Clan. Our paths diverge; we shouldn’t try to work together. Farewell!"

With that, Su Yan turned and walked away decisively, without a single glance back.

The convenience store owner grew anxious. How could I let the fool I tricked so easily just slip away? He immediately called out to stop him, "Su Yan, you’re right! Take these two Seven Emotion Gu Types. Eat them quickly; the Flower God will surely sense your loyalty."

The convenience store owner had barely finished speaking when two eerie hands crept out from the darkness. Positioned to his left and right, each hand extended a seed towards Su Yan.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Su Yan took the Seven Emotion Gu Types from the palms and used his System to Devour them completely.

Immediately, a barrage of System notifications exploded in the depths of his mind.

After Devouring the two seeds, Su Yan felt a swell of pride and couldn’t help but consider confronting the convenience store owner. However, he didn’t act rashly. Instead, with a plan in mind, he suddenly sighed with feigned lament, "I’m clearly so old, yet my Creature Level is still so low. It feels terrible."

The convenience store owner didn’t understand why Su Yan was suddenly lamenting. He’s probably just showing off, being a Versailles again, he guessed. Although he inwardly scorned this behavior, he played along. "Old? You think your Level is low? Then what about middle-aged folks like me? Do we even deserve to live?"

After hearing the convenience store owner’s response, Su Yan nodded. "True. If someone like you can survive, then so can I."

Damn it! Hearing this, the convenience store owner burned with a mixture of shame and fury. He suspected Su Yan was deliberately provoking him but had no proof.

Su Yan ignored the convenience store owner’s livid face and continued, "I believe you saw me subdue the principal earlier. So, what category of Creature Level do you think I’ve reached?"

The convenience store owner recalled the scene of the principal being subdued. Then, without much thought, he replied, "At a casual glance, I’d say your Level is within the Rare Level category."

"Correct." Su Yan dropped the Versailles act and boasted outright, "Have you ever seen a high school student as incredible as me?"

The convenience store owner pondered for a moment. "Very few," he replied. "No more than ten."

Su Yan smiled. "I imagine you must have looked up my profile by now. You should have some understanding of my talent, right?"

The convenience store owner nodded. "I checked yesterday. Your talent doesn’t seem extraordinary, just slightly better than most."

"Mm, that is indeed the case." Su Yan nodded in agreement. Then, smiling, he asked, "So here’s the question: if my talent isn’t extraordinary, why have I, at such a young age, already reached the Rare Level category? Have you ever wondered about that?"

With that, Su Yan looked up at the convenience store owner, silently awaiting his response.

The convenience store owner replied, "I am indeed quite curious about that. However, everyone has their secrets. I don’t need to know."

Hearing the convenience store owner’s answer, Su Yan smiled. "Well, I’ll tell you the secret now. It’s all because I have a particularly efficient training method."
