Master of Kaidan
Chapter 467: You’re the Toy

Chapter 467: Chapter 467: You’re the Toy

"You’re the toy!" That’s what the Miss of the Ke family had intended to say after hearing Cain’s words, but immediately after, she pressed her hand to her head and frowned, saying,

"There’s a voice saying I don’t have the right to pass, and that I should take on a challenge..."

"Ah, that’s normal, giving birth in Babylon Tower is like that, don’t take the kids out of the room before they can fight, otherwise, they’ll be forcefully kicked out. Your situation should be similar; just wait for that countdown to finish and then fight your way up, level by level, following the prompts. This is the 61st floor, once you defeat the guardian of this floor, you can move around freely here. It shouldn’t be difficult for you."

As soon as Cain finished speaking, the Miss of the Ke family vanished in a flash, and it was only then that Feng Xue breathed a sigh of relief as he took a feminization filter from his waist and put it into his pouch. The Arabian girl with purple eyes in front of him changed back into a normal young man.

"Where did you find such a godlike person?" Cain asked casually after seeing Feng Xue take out and store a magical item. Cain seemed to have realized something and asked off-handedly.

Feng Xue shrugged and said,

"I met her in the last world. You know about the Ouroboros, right? The kind that has the ability to control fate and restart civilization—it trapped me with just a wave of its hand."

"So you traded the news of Infinite City for it?" Cain sounded somewhat resigned, but Feng Xue caught that the other party referred to "it" and suddenly became curious about what the Miss of the Ke family looked like to them. However, he didn’t ask and simply shook his head, saying,

"No, I actively brought her over to exchange for the continued existence of the kaidan that I stirred up over there."

"Have you gone mad?" Cain’s face showed an expression akin to looking at an idiot. But upon closer observation, one could feel he was questioning whether Feng Xue was just pretending to be more important than he actually was.

Feng Xue responded casually,

"The entry I got this time is quite special. Without the uniquely favorable conditions of that world, replicating this thing is pretty much impossible."

"Now I’m curious about what exaggerated kaidan you’ve concocted, to the point of involving such a presence." Curiosity appeared on Cain’s face but immediately afterward, he waved his hand and said,

"Forget it, better not to tell me. I don’t want to hear it!"

"What!" Feng Xue’s face lit up with a smug, bad smile, and he said in shock, "How did you guess that I’ve condensed a ’Single Word Authority’?"

"I didn’t guess it... Fuck!"

Cain’s answer was vividly translated into a stream of profanity by Babylon Tower, and Feng Xue responded with a smile yet said nothing, secretly making a mental note.

It seemed that Cain, an old kaidan like that, had some recognition of the transcendence of "Single Word Authority."

As for why he could understand the name Feng Xue had casually come up with...

Of course, it was Babylon Tower’s "Shared Language"!

As long as you have a clear cognitive understanding of the language you’re speaking in your mind, even if you "meow meow meow," the other party will understand what you’re saying.

Cain seemed to have been utterly disconcerted by Feng Xue’s shocking revelation, squatting in a corner and starting to mutter things like "inborn kaidan are really trash," which left Feng Xue a bit confused. He wondered how such a renowned kaidan could be so fragile?!

Then, he noticed the skin of the young man, who originally had brown skin with distinct Arab features, suddenly started to change.

It wasn’t fading or losing saturation, but rather seemed to change on a fundamental level. Within just a few seconds, his skin had lost all its color and became somewhat pale. This transformation instantly made Feng Xue realize something, and he said with some surprise,

"You accepted the Blood Clan Ancestor’s Kaidan entry? Just like that?"

"I’ve been hesitating for over ten years! If I hesitated any longer, who knows how much more I’d have to be ’sunbathed’ by the likes of you! At least this entry comes with a Single Word Power!"

"Heh heh..." Feng Xue didn’t know whether he had helped him make up his mind or if this guy was simply telling him, "What’s there to ’sunbathe’, I’ve got a Single Word Power too." But Feng Xue didn’t care. Cain’s Single Word Power was either [Sin] or [Blood]. If it were sin, it would have surfaced by now; so it must be the Blood Clan Ancestor’s power of blood.

Thinking about this, Feng Xue couldn’t help but mourn silently for the multitude of vampires in Kaidan, led by a vampire with ample bosom.

However, as much as he said that, when Cain stood up, his skin returned to the café-au-lait tint of his desert people, which made Feng Xue even more suspicious that this guy was putting on an act.

Nevertheless, Cain didn’t give him a chance to dwell on his suspicions, and instead said with a frown,

"Speaking of which, this is the first time I’ve seen someone bring Kaidan from the Otherworld back here. Are you telling me that Infinite City accepts Kaidan from the Otherworld too?"

"Isn’t that obvious? Whether it’s us upstarts who climbed up later or ancient antiques like you who existed before Infinite City, aren’t we all outsiders to Infinite City? What’s the difference between walking out of the gate of Babylon Tower, or from a gate in the real world, or from the gates above the dump?"

Feng Xue found Cain’s question quite baffling, but Cain seemed to ponder for a moment before nodding and saying,

"You seem to have a point. By the way, now that you’ve got a Single Word Power, are you thinking of taking it to the next level?"

"For the time being, I have no such plans—well, or rather, I’ve realized I’m still missing something. I need to gather the Kaidan I want first, and then consider challenging the higher floors."

"As long as you’re confident, that’s good. I’m going back to adapt to the new entry." Having said that, Cain didn’t wait for Feng Xue to ask him to stay and vanished from his sight.

Feng Xue could only shake his head slightly at Cain’s seeming ability to appear and disappear at will. Just as he turned around, his head buzzed sharply.

"Fuck!"

Although it wasn’t an actual attack, Feng Xue felt his brain had processed a massive amount of information in that instant. He reached to his waist and pulled out the filter, which he’d just put back, and breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the Ke family’s young miss, who had returned to wearing a Goth leather outfit and long black hair, he made an effort to forget the impact from a moment ago and said,

"That was quick, wasn’t it?"

"Yes, it felt pretty simple. Every time the countdown ended, a voice would tell me I passed the challenge and earned passage rights. That’s how I made it up here, layer by layer. Speaking of which, I heard one has to challenge for Residence Rights here, right? I’ll go challenge for one." The way the Ke family’s young miss spoke had an air of nonchalance, but even without resorting to the Heart of Bright Mirror and Still Water, Feng Xue could sense her bragging emotions.

Feng Xue did not argue, but simply pointed to several model houses not far away—

"Those houses are currently unoccupied. If you want to live there, just go challenge for it. But why do I feel like you’re particularly keen on this?"

"Of course I’m keen! Try spending a few years in a small room; for me, that world wasn’t much different from a tiny room!" expressed the Ke family’s young miss, taking it as a given. Feng Xue could only spread his hands—

"You’re so damn cool!"
