Chapter 38 Jiang Shao
Jiang Hu’s phantom suddenly appeared. In Jin Yuchen’s eyes, Jiang Hu’s expression was extremely ferocious as she placed her hand on Feng Mi’s neck.
Jin Yuchen knew that this was a psychological projection. He subconsciously wanted to kill Feng Mi. as long as Jiang Hu’s phantom made a move, he would undoubtedly make a move as well.
Feng Mi’s question hit the nail on the head on something he had been subconsciously
avoiding.
Jin Yuchen calmed himself down and said, “You’re not afraid of death? I don’t know what
I’m going to do if you keep provoking me like this.”
“I’m not afraid.” Feng Mi smiled. “You know that this body is only under my control. Death has no effect on me.
“It can’t be that there’s no effect at all. Just like how my master planted a demon in me…” Jin Yuchen revealed mercilessly, “I don’t think you made this puppet overnight.”
“You’re right.” Feng Mi continued. “It’s not an easy task, but it’s worth the risk. If I can’t wake you up, there’s no need for our cooperation.”
Jin Yuchen closed his eyes, and the image of his master’s bed gradually disappeared from his memory.
Jin Yuchen’s memory of him and Jiang Hu visiting Jiang Shao at the hospital had also disappeared.
It seemed like Jiang Shao had suddenly disappeared one day, and then he and Jiang Hu naturally had the memory of his master dying of illness.
The memory fragments of his master’s training regime also increased.
Jiang Shao was much crueler than Jin Yuchen remembered. He subconsciously assumed Jiang Shao’s attitude when he was teaching Sun Chuanwu.
It was a form of inheritance.
Jiang Hu also turned a deaf ear to his brutal methods, meaning she was clearly used to such methods.
Only now did he realize the abnormality between him and Jiang Hu.
The two of them were used to this kind of
thing and did not have any fluctuations in their hearts. Their ability to empathize had probably long been lost.
As the details in his mind became more and more abundant, Jin Yuchen asked Feng Mi, “Could the cooperation be related to my master?”
“Indeed.” Feng Mi nodded. “I won’t hide it from you, but Jiang Shao has recently brought us a lot of trouble.
“I was exaggerating when I said that Jiang Shao learned some of our techniques. It’s more appropriate to say that he stole them.”
Following Feng Mi’s narration, the conflict
between Jiang Shao and Mirage gradually
became clear.
Jiang Shao was indeed a martial arts fanatic, and traditional martial arts were far from being able to satisfy his ambitions.
In order to achieve his martial arts concept of
opening the Heavenly Gate, he had tried almost all methods, but he could not accomplish it.
In the process, he came into contact with
Mirage.
Feng Mi used “a little bit of unhappiness” to
touch on this point.
After that, Jiang Shao imprisoned a Mirage
member and interrogated him about the special
methods used by the organization.
Mirage then hunted him down, and only in recent years did they discover Jiang Shao again.
Of course, it wasn’t appropriate to say that they had discovered him, as Jiang Shao had appeared in front of them of his own accord.
If Jiang Shao had been a little troublesome in the past, he had now become a big problem.
Jiang Shao’s self-created Shamans’ God Summoning was only strong, but the most important thing was that it would overturn the
organization’s philosophy.
Mirage’s goal was to break through the
physical constraints and continue their
existence in a purely spiritual way.
On the other hand, Jiang Shao’s spirit was
attached to his body, and his spirit was able to develop the limits of his body.
The two ideas were completely opposite. Jiang Shao’s idea attracted some members of the organization, causing the organization to split
up.
Moreover, Jiang Shao and his team were very strong, and he was very clear about their means, so the situation wasn’t good. “It’s not that it’s bad. It’s that it’s about to be
destroyed.” Jin Yuchen mercilessly exposed Feng Mi’s wound.
Feng Mi didn’t say anything. Such words
couldn’t break through her psychological defense.
“It’s indeed a life-and-death situation.”
“Then why should I help you, a bunch of trash?” Jin Yuchen was unmoved. “He has not been very good to me, but he’s my master. There’s no benefit in fighting him.” Feng Mi laughed. “Why not? We can help you
remove the Demon Seed in your body and be your most loyal subordinates.
“Also, your master will never help you remove
it!
“You are his perfect test subject. His god-summoning method was perfected on
you.”
“What do you mean by ‘test subject’?” asked Jin Yuchen, his expression unchanged. Feng Mi continued to explain. “The literal
meaning of Demon Seed is to plant demonic thoughts in the human heart, which are all
kinds of negative emotions, and then split them out.
“In the beginning, it was only to get rid of
negative emotions, but later, he realized that the negative effects were too great. “The negative emotions had only been split, not disappeared. Instead, because of the negative emotions accumulated in the early stages, the side effects were shocking.
“This inspired Jiang Shao. His idea of summoning the gods was to imagine an omnipotent god and let it enter the body to do things that human consciousness couldn’t do. “It’s easy to fantasize about a god, but it’s difficult to make the god materialize. The most
important aspect is still to control the god after entering one’s body.
“And this solution is the split personality in the magic method.
“A Demon Seed can only be cultivated from a
young age. He only cultivated you to observe how the Demon Seed operates.
“He perfected the god-summoning technique
by observing you.
“That’s why your illusion can’t be controlled.
“Since he left you quietly, it must mean that he has another experiment on you. Are you willing to be his stepping stone?”
“So what if I’m just a stepping stone?” Jin Yuchen laughed.
“You just want to provoke my emotions and
make me agree to it, but this kind of thing doesn’t help me at all.
“Or rather, the price you offered is not enough
at all.”
“If you want to negotiate, you have to offer some practical benefits.”
Feng Mi was surprised for the first time.
They had experts in psychology and had already done a psychological profile of Jin Yuchen, but they did not expect it to be so
wrong.
Jin Yuchen laughed in his heart. He had won this round.
The other party only wanted to offer some
cheap emotions in exchange for a helper like
him.
If he really was the 22-year-old Jin Yuchen, he might have fallen for the trap.
But he wasn’t. He had lived two lives, so his
heart had been twisted too much.
“I… need to think about it.” Hearing Feng Mi’s agreement, Jin Yuchen
stood up. “There’s no rush. Take your time to
consider.
“The next time you want to see me, you’ll have to come in your true body.” Leaving Feng Mi in the coffee shop, Jin Yuchen
rearranged his flesh and bones on the street, returning to his original appearance. The cameras on the street quickly sent his
information back to the mysterious base through face recognition. “Leader! We’ve found Jin Yuchen.”
One of the observers shouted, and his face
froze.
In the video, Jin Yuchen was staring straight at the camera as if he was looking at him through
the screen.
“No… No way?”
