Chapter 121: Chapter 117: Evolving Toward Ancient Life

Qin Siyu was delighted with the arrival of the Divine Palace Feiyue sisters, especially since Divine Palace Feirou had returned safely.

However, upon learning that they had already bought tickets for the following morning, Qin Siyu felt a little regretful.

Because it was getting late, Qin Siyu helped the two women pack briefly before going to take a shower. After Feirou finished showering, Qin Siyu pulled her into the room and chattered incessantly.

Due to the sudden addition of two women in the house, Jiang Hou, wanting to be a bit discreet as they moved in and out of the shower, stepped onto the small balcony to overlook the street scene outside.

He was contemplating the matter of Giant Shock losing control.

At that time, he had transformed into a Giant Ape to suppress Giant Shock, but instead of tearing him apart like he’d do with a wild beast, he crushed his will bit by bit.

He did this to observe the process of how a Transcendent loses control.

The conclusion he arrived at was ’spiritual consciousness’; the loss of control for Giant Shock first showed as a disruption and distortion in consciousness before manifesting in the body, rather than the body losing control and mutating and then affecting the mind.

Thus, it seems the key to a Transcendent losing control lies in the consciousness.

It’s similar to what Qin Buyi said about remembering one’s humanity and not losing it: if, one day, he becomes accustomed to the beast form and doesn’t want to revert to human form, what would happen?

Would he mutate in his beast form?

He certainly wouldn’t have any ’humanity’ left, but essentially, the beast form is already a form of ruined life. If it could mutate, what would it become?

Speaking of which, is it possible for those monstrous creatures in ruins to lose control? Various thoughts began to flood Jiang Hou’s mind, his musings growing more skewed.

While pondering this question, Divine Palace Feiyue, who had finished showering and with slightly damp hair, approached.

Compared to her usual loose sweatshirt, although this white nightgown was oversized, it was still impressively bulging, highlighting an arched curve.

Jiang Hou had only seen such a figure in anime; in reality, having it this big would have long become unpleasantly distorted.

"Earlier, when I mentioned to Sister Feng the alternative to resistance, I noticed the junior seemed a bit curious."

Jiang Hou smiled slightly, "I am indeed a bit curious. From your words, it seems that going to the Bauhinia Federation isn’t just about avoiding the Demon Dragon Divine Hall?"

Feiyue nodded softly, "Yes, actually, this time, without the Giant Demon Association, Rou and I were already planning to go to the Bauhinia Federation, but not so soon."

"Even though we are called perfect experimental subjects, the fusion with ancient artifacts still has significant defects."

"After all, those are Divine Demon relics surviving ancient ordeals and not completely obliterated, not something us ordinary people can simply fuse with."

"Rou and I succeeded because we’re essentially Innate Superpower Users."

"My innate ability is combat body, compatible with the War Angel’s Feather, while Rou is soul-splitting, able to split part of her soul to merge with the Guardian Feather."

"But even with compatible abilities, our bodies still can’t withstand the invasion of ancient artifacts’ power, always at the brink of collapse."

"After destroying the Purple Dragon Hall’s research institute, I took Rou to many places and found two forbidden items that can seal the Angel’s Feather power."

"The chain on me is called the Dark Realm Chain, and the headphone-like item on Yu’s neck is called the Tear of the Angel, but these only delay the erosion."

"We came to Yidu because of Sister Feng, a professor in the genetic field at Nanda and a powerful Superpower User who awakened spiritual capability."

"With her spiritual superpowers possessing microscopic characteristics, her research in genetic biology is outstanding and internationally renowned."

"Unfortunately, Sister Feng also can’t help with our situation."

"So, I contacted the Ancient God Research Institute, which is interested in the Angel’s Feather within us; Lady Akalin there, alongside Sister Feng, is an outstanding expert in the field of biology."

"But her research direction differs from Sister Feng’s, and her suggestion for our problem is that control is better than prevention."

"Since erosion can’t be stopped, control its direction to change the disadvantageous aspect into a beneficial one, similar to cancer cell theories."

"Normal cells age after fifty divisions, but cancer cells escaping natural regulation mostly can elongate indefinitely, becoming a form of ’immortality.’"

"If we can control the Ancient Angel Power to alter the destructive erosion on our life sequences and human form, making it controllable, then we’d have perfectly fused with the Angel’s Feather."

"By then, using the Ancient Angel Power, we might even evolve into true Ancient Life, possessing powerful forces above the mundane."

At this, Divine Palace Feiyue smiled faintly, "Of course, this is just a beautiful thought. If only it were that simple."

Jiang Hou comforted her, "As long as there’s a feasible direction, it’s fine. We do what we can, and success is up to fate; as long as we’ve tried, even if we fail, we won’t regret it."

"The junior is right; I’ve always held this belief; otherwise, I wouldn’t have endured for so long."

As they continued the exchange and grew familiar, their conversation became more informal.

"You sisters will surely succeed, senior," Jiang Hou encouraged her.

"I’ve heard that the Ancient God Research Institute is the place for the deepest research on Transcendents globally, gathering top scholars in various fields, with impeccable research accumulated over decades."

"Hopefully." Divine Palace Feiyue smiled gently.

Afterward, the two chatted as friends, with Jiang Hou inquiring about many experiences shared by the sisters concerning extraordinary circles in other countries during their travels.

For example, among the fifteen countries of the Western Continent Alliance, there’s a large island nation named Kasra, where most of the Transcendents awakened abilities related to water.

Some people could even directly transform into mermaid-like creatures, wandering in the sea for long periods.

She also encountered rare inheritors from the Celestial Fire Era, whose strength was remarkable, wielding white flames that burned the heavens and boiled the sea, unmatched in power among their peers.

But the Celestial Fire Era inheritance was incomplete, and though that person was peerless in combat power, they had been stuck at the sixth tier for several years.

She also saw several strongmen from the Celestial Demon Era, some of whom had almost entirely transformed into demons, indistinguishable from actual Demon Fiends.

These people are extremely dangerous, always at risk of losing control...

While talking, time flew by, and the conversation didn’t end until about eleven thirty.

Divine Palace Feiyue glanced at the quiet street outside, brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, and softly said, "Junior, it’s getting late. Let’s chat again another time."

"Okay, senior. Rest early." Jiang Hou nodded.

Due to the time, the three girls all slept in Qin Siyu’s room tonight. Fortunately, the bed was large enough for them.

After Divine Palace Feiyue returned to her room.

Meow~ The white kitty looked eagerly at Jiang Hou.

Jiang Hou shook his head, "Let’s take a break tonight."

Meow~ The white kitty showed a trace of disappointment in its eyes.

......

The next morning.

As soon as Jiang Hou got up, he heard some bustling sounds coming from the kitchen. He opened the door and went out, only to see Divine Palace Feiyue busying herself in the kitchen.

Qin Siyu and Divine Palace Feirou were sitting at the dining table, eating breakfast with chopsticks, chatting non-stop.

The conversation was actually about that urban Transcendent TV drama.

"Rourou, download the website I mentioned when you have time. It has all the resources for Celestial Love, including the latest two episodes."

"Okay, I’ll do it later."

"It’s at the part where Bai Susu, due to her father being forced by loan sharks, is made to sell alcohol at Shang K, but Long Ao still doesn’t know and is working as a bodyguard at Baiyun Mansion..."

Hearing the content of their conversation, Jiang Hou couldn’t help but twitch his mouth a couple of times.

It was that ridiculous drama again. What kind of divine content was this? A Transcendent strong enough to destroy mountains and valleys working as a bodyguard? Even with amnesia, it’s a bit far-fetched.

And the protagonist’s girlfriend being forced by loan sharks to work as a hostess at Shang K...

At that moment, Qin Siyu, excitedly chatting, noticed Jiang Hou: "Jiang Hou, you’re up! Today’s breakfast was made by Senior. Come try it, it’s really good."

As she spoke, Divine Palace Feiyue walked out of the kitchen with a plate of freshly fried dough cakes, emitting an appetizing, crispy aroma.

Looking at Jiang Hou, Divine Palace Feiyue smiled gently, "There weren’t many ingredients in the kitchen, so I just made a few simple dishes to see if they suit your taste."

A few simple dishes...

Jiang Hou looked at the table, filled with over a dozen different snacks like two plates of steamed buns, a plate of mantou, several fried dough sticks, flaky scallion pancakes, stuffed pancakes, steamed vermicelli rolls, and hot noodle sheets, momentarily at a loss for words.

Was it that his family usually ate more simply, or did the Shengong family always have such a lavish breakfast?

With two more people this morning, the dining room was quite lively. Despite the abundance, Jiang Hou and Divine Palace Feiyue’s appetites ensured that everything was finished.

As for the taste, one word: superb!

Jiang Hou had thought Qin Siyu’s cooking was already excellent, but Divine Palace Feiyue’s skills were even more astounding, and it seemed there was nothing she couldn’t make.

However, after the lively breakfast came the time to say goodbye.

At Yidu Airport, Jiang Hou stood at the check-in gate, watching Qin Siyu and Divine Palace Feirou embrace each other reluctantly, feeling a bit sentimental.

Life is full of separations. When Divine Palace Feirou first visited their house, who could have imagined so much would happen in just half a month?

And just as the two sisters were settling in, they had to leave again for the distant Bauhinia Federation, facing an uncertain future.

At that moment, Divine Palace Feiyue approached Jiang Hou and gently hugged him, leaving him momentarily stunned.

Just as Jiang Hou thought this was merely a farewell hug between friends, Divine Palace Feiyue leaned in to whisper in his ear.

"It’s a pity, I’ve already promised Miss Akalin, otherwise I would have liked to stay and experience what it’s like to fall in love with someone."

... Love, what the heck? Jiang Hou was instantly dumbfounded.

But at that moment, the ’elegant’ girl had already released her hug. With a smile on her face and an expression of regret in her eyes, she gave him a deep look.

"Rou, it’s time to check-in, let’s go."

"Okay, sister." Divine Palace Feirou reluctantly let go of Qin Siyu.

"Rourou, remember to call me when you get there."

"Mm, I will." Divine Palace Feirou nodded earnestly. She waved to Jiang Hou, then turned with her little suitcase to catch up with Divine Palace Feiyue.

At that moment, Jiang Hou’s watch vibrated, indicating a deposit of 7,230 points!

There was also a message from Jiang Ruochan mentioning him in the group.

"President, are you active again?" Jiang Hou was somewhat surprised. The president said she had come over to recuperate, but she was so busy that she was nowhere to be seen during the day.

"Yes, I just came out of an alternate dimension and heard about the attack incident."

"The Giant Shock’s body examination results are out. The bone strength already reached level six, and I heard it was you, not Divine Feiyue, who finally killed him."

"Come to the activity room this afternoon. There’s something I need to discuss with you. You’ve been so concerned about this and that, acting nothing like a high school student."

Cough, cough!!
