[Chat Group For The Death] Chapter 191 - 195

Chapter 191: The Long-Lost Love Triangle!

Jin Renfeng, who had obtained the Dongfang Spirit Blood, had indeed become much stronger, but he was still far from matching Dongfang Yuechu, who used to be the number one Taoist in the sect. It was just like Blackbeard with the Tremor-Tremor Fruit ability—he still couldn't compare to Whitebeard at his peak.

Dongfang Yuechu manipulated Pure Yang Flame and taught her traitor disciple a harsh lesson, letting him know why she had become the leader of the Yiqi Dao League.

Facing Dongfang Yuechu at full power, Jin Renfeng lost all his arrogance. The sense of superiority and self-confidence he had cultivated after obtaining the Dongfang Spirit Blood disappeared in the face of the burning Pure Yang Flame.

"Master, forgive me!"

"Don't kill me, I'm your chief disciple!"

"Have you forgotten? You raised me like a son."

Jin Renfeng screamed, proving he could bend and grovel just like Blackbeard Teach.

IN THE CHAT GROUP:

Whitebeard: "This guy is really like Blackbeard Teach. When Teach was beaten by me, he also called me 'Father.'"

Dongfang Yuechu: "When he begged you for mercy, did you soften your heart?"

Whitebeard: "How could I be soft-hearted? By then, I had already recognized his true nature. I had only one goal at that time—to take his life."

Golden Lion Shiki: "It's a pity that Whitebeard was overwhelmed and weakened at that time. Despite his best efforts, he couldn't kill Teach."

Whitebeard: "What could I do? My injury relapsed at that critical moment, and Blackbeard Teach had a group of powerful helpers."

Dongfang Yuechu: "It seems I am luckier than you! At least when taking my revenge, my physical condition was better than yours. Not only am I untroubled by injuries, but I also have an immortal body and endless magical power."

IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD:

Flames burned in Dongfang Yuechu's eyes as the flaming Pure Yang Flame unceremoniously engulfed Jin Renfeng. Not only that, but Jin Renfeng's die-hard loyalists were also swallowed by the flame dragon.

The disciples of Divine Fire Manor who had fled early were all trembling when they saw this scene, and some even began to kneel before Dongfang Yuechu, begging for mercy.

"Master, forgive us!"

"Master, we were forced by Jin Renfeng!"

Looking coldly at the kneeling disciples, Dongfang Yuechu said solemnly: "Because you were coerced by Jin Renfeng, I will spare your lives this time. But this is not a precedent—if such betrayal happens again, you will be executed!"

The disciples of Divine Fire Manor breathed sighs of relief when they heard these words and expressed their gratitude to Dongfang Yuechu. However, before their effusive thanks were finished, a group of Taoist priests riding flying swords appeared in the sky above Divine Fire Manor.

"Heir of Wangquan Villa—Wangquan Tianxia! I heard that civil unrest broke out in Divine Fire Manor, so I came to help!"

Accompanied by the sound of rustling robes, Wangquan Tianxia flew over on his sword and positioned himself in front of the disciples of Wangquan Villa.

IN THE CHAT GROUP:

Golden Lion Shiki: "If I remember correctly, this kid shouldn't be the heir of Wangquan Villa, right? He said so earlier."

Senju Tobirama: "Does it even need to be said? He must be lying. Perhaps he wasn't confident about defeating Jin Renfeng, so he fabricated an important identity for himself to save his life if needed."

Lucas: "That's not necessarily true! I think Wangquan Tianxia is probably trying to use the advantage of information asymmetry to help himself gain control of Wangquan Villa, Divine Fire Manor, and even the entire Yiqi Dao Alliance."

Dongfang Yuechu: "Information asymmetry? I don't understand!"

Lucas: "For example—Wangquan Tianxia is the son of the patriarch of the Wangquan family. He only has the opportunity to become the heir, but he is not currently the heir of Wangquan Villa or the Wangquan family."

Lucas: "Now imagine he comes to you, asks to marry your eldest daughter, and claims that he's the next patriarch of the Wangquan family, the heir of Wangquan Villa, and the next leader of the Yiqi Dao League."

Dongfang Yuechu: "How is that possible? I wouldn't be so easily deceived. Would I believe whatever he says? I would investigate it myself."

Lucas: "But to investigate these things, you need time, right? He takes advantage of this time difference. Before you complete your investigation, he tells the Wangquan family and the people of Wangquan Villa that he's about to marry the eldest lady of Divine Fire Manor. With the support of many members of the Yiqi Dao League, his becoming the next leader is supposedly a sure thing."

Dongfang Yuechu: "So simultaneously, he would contact many people with real authority in the Yiqi Dao League and tell them that he will inherit the Wangquan family and Wangquan Villa, and then marry into Divine Fire Manor?"

Lucas: "That's right! As long as he moves quickly enough to spread the news before your investigators return with the truth, can you guess what happens next?"

Senju Hashirama: "None of the three forces he deceived would believe him immediately. Couldn't his lies be easily exposed?"

Senju Tobirama: "Not necessarily! I think he has a high probability of success with this approach. Because powers rarely deal with each other openly and honestly. The mutual suspicion between them is the foundation of his potential success."

Doflamingo: "Fufufufu~ Tobirama is right. I also think he has a high chance of success. Mr. Dongfang, if Wangquan Tianxia told you those things, and then representatives from the Yiqi Dao League and Wangquan Villa came to ask if you're planning to marry off your daughter, what would you think?"

Dongfang Yuechu thought for a while and said helplessly: "In that case, my doubts would be dispelled. Because if Wangquan Tianxia had lied, neither Wangquan Villa nor the Yiqi Dao League would come to ask about such a thing."

Dongfang Yuechu: "I would think that what Wangquan Tianxia said was true, and that he came to propose marriage with the approval of Wangquan Villa and the Yiqi Dao League. I'd assume that Wangquan Tianxia and the two major powers were all testing my views on the matter."

Dongfang Yuechu: "If that were the case, then I would likely agree. After all, the three major forces—Wangquan Villa, Divine Fire Manor, and the Yiqi Dao League—are important pillars of humanity, and strengthening their relationships would be beneficial."

Senju Hashirama: "If this method is so effective, why didn't he use it sooner?"

Lucas: "Because of the difficulty! This kind of scheme is very demanding in terms of timing and requirements. Any small misstep would cause the entire plan to unravel. Wangquan Tianxia is a transmigrator with a system—he could rise to the top by playing it safe. Why would he take such a big risk? A failure could be fatal to his ambitions."

Dongfang Yuechu: "If he really played it this way, it wouldn't be a disaster even if he were exposed. This is indeed a good approach to unite the three major forces. Perhaps we would all pretend not to notice and tacitly accept it!"

Lucas: "That's not necessarily true! His brother is more talented than him, so wouldn't he worry about the three major forces forming ties through his brother instead? He definitely wouldn't risk such a gamble."

Gold Thief Woonan: "Then why is he doing it now?"

Lucas: "He's not trying to deceive all three major powers now, but just a leaderless Divine Fire Manor. And the current Divine Fire Manor surely doesn't have the resources to verify his claims. Even if he's exposed later, he can explain that he lied to save people."

Dongfang Yuechu: "This little schemer has too many tricks up his sleeve!"

Lucas: "It's okay! The main reason is that his system isn't strong enough to give him the power to simply take what he wants by force."

IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD:

After Wangquan Tianxia appeared and saw the alive Dongfang Yuechu below, his face suddenly fell.

Where was Jin Renfeng? This was completely different from what he had imagined!

He had heard fighting in Divine Fire Manor—wasn't it supposed to be a confrontation between Jin Renfeng and Dongfang Huaizhu?

What was Dongfang Yuechu doing here?

Lucas looked at Dongfang Huaizhu beside him and asked, "Miss Huaizhu, I'd like to ask you a question! Do you know Wangquan Baquan?"

Dongfang Huaizhu nodded, looked at Wangquan Tianxia in the sky, and replied, "I do! Once when I was practicing outside, I met him along with Wangquan Tianxia. Later we met several times, and each time the brothers appeared together."

IN THE CHAT GROUP:

Dongfang Yuechu: "Group Leader, why are you asking Huaizhu about this?"

Lucas: "In the original future, Dongfang Huaizhu ended up with Wangquan Baquan. But now it seems that the original future has been disrupted by Wangquan Tianxia. This Wangquan Tianxia has designs on his future sister-in-law!"

Howard Stark: "A love triangle? I smell the emergence of a long-lost romantic triangle! Wangquan Tianxia is the third wheel, right? This interloper has been busy! Although he hasn't intervened smoothly, at least he's managed to disrupt the original relationship."

Sebastian Shaw: "If we hadn't interfered, perhaps he would have already succeeded in stealing his brother's woman."

Dongfang Yuechu: "I'm familiar with Wangquan Baquan—he's a very powerful young man. Even if Jin Renfeng obtained the Dongfang Spirit Blood, he might not be a match for him. Did he kill Jin Renfeng in the original timeline?"

Lucas: "What a pity! Wangquan Baquan formed a masked organization with a group of young geniuses from the human Taoist sect. They suffered heavy casualties when they ventured beyond the barrier together. Wangquan Baquan lost his sword arts and couldn't defeat Jin Renfeng."

Dongfang Yuechu: "You can't be serious? Young people today are too impulsive. If you want to venture beyond the barrier, you should at least be invincible within it first! Otherwise, you're just seeking death."

Lucas: "Young people are frivolous and ambitious. They look down on their predecessors and question authority. This is the path that many young geniuses take. Unfortunately, they were unlucky and encountered enemies they couldn't defeat."

IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD:

Wangquan Tianxia looked at Dongfang Yuechu and the others with some embarrassment, but he wasn't an ordinary person. He quickly recovered his composure.

"I was passing by when I saw a fight here, so I came to investigate out of goodwill. After all, the Wangquan and Dongfang families are the pillars of human Taoism, and we should help each other."

Wangquan Tianxia explained, then looked at Dongfang Yuechu curiously and asked, "I heard that Master Dongfang had passed away. Could it be that was just a rumor?"

Chapter 192: Since Ancient Times, Beauty Has Been Ill-Fated—Who Cares About the Life and Death of Ugly Ghosts?

IN THE CHAT GROUP:

Dongfang Yuechu: "Group Leader, do you need to deal with this transmigrator yourself?"

Lucas: "That would be better."

Dongfang Yuechu: "If that's the case, then I'll leave him to you. Although he's not the heir to the Wangquan family, it would be a bit troublesome for me to kill him in front of everyone."

Dongfang Yuechu explained that for the sake of the entire human race, it wouldn't be appropriate for the Wangquan family and the Dongfang family to have a violent conflict.

IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD:

Dongfang Yuechu looked at Wangquan Tianxia with a smile that didn't reach her eyes and said: "Young friend is joking! This old one was merely in a coma before, but now I've recovered. If it weren't for this coma, I wouldn't have seen how many unscrupulous people were in Divine Fire Manor."

Wangquan Tianxia smiled and said: "If that's the case, then it's really fortunate. The predecessors are the pillars of human Taoism, and humanity's peace and tranquility still need the protection of elders such as yourself!"

The embarrassed Wangquan Tianxia, filled with doubt and confusion, exchanged a few more words with Dongfang Yuechu before leaving decisively.

"What the hell is going on? Dongfang Yuechu isn't dead!"

"Where's Jin Renfeng? I didn't see him just now!"

"Could it be that my intervention caused a chain reaction?"

"Possible!"

"Perhaps because of my intervention, Jin Renfeng attacked Dongfang Yuechu earlier than in the original timeline."

Wangquan Tianxia stood on his flying sword with a gloomy face, thinking while returning to Wangquan Villa.

Crack!

Suddenly, the space where Wangquan Tianxia and his followers were located changed. Transparent objects that resembled shattered mirrors appeared around them, surrounding them completely.

"What's happening?"

Wangquan Tianxia and his companions were startled. They quickly gathered together and looked vigilantly at the changing space around them.

A spatial crack appeared before them. Lucas floated out from it and looked at Wangquan Tianxia and the others with a smile.

"It's you!"

Wangquan Tianxia's pupils contracted. He had just seen Lucas in Divine Fire Manor.

His mind had been preoccupied with Dongfang Yuechu's resurrection, so he hadn't paid much attention to Lucas then.

Now, focusing his attention on Lucas, he immediately realized something was wrong.

Lucas's outfit was too modern, out of place with everyone else in this world.

And thinking carefully, the previous Dongfang Yuechu had also seemed odd. Why did the cracks on her face resemble those of the Edo Tensei?

Reincarnation?!

A look of shock appeared on Wangquan Tianxia's face. Had he encountered another transmigrator? Damn!

And this fellow transmigrator was his enemy! Moreover, this transmigrator seemed stronger than him.

Fight!

After realizing that Lucas's strength might be greater than his own, Wangquan Tianxia's eyes suddenly turned red. He didn't naively think he could coexist peacefully with Lucas.

He put himself in Lucas's position and thought for a moment, concluding that if he were Lucas, he would also hunt down other transmigrators.

"Sword of Wangquan!"

Wangquan Tianxia drew his trump card—a sword with the word "Wangquan" engraved on its hilt flew out and landed in his hand.

"Heaven and Earth Sword Strike!"

Wangquan Tianxia used his ultimate move without hesitation, slashing at Lucas. He thought that even if he couldn't kill Lucas, he had to break the spatial barrier that Lucas had erected around them so he could escape.

As Wangquan Tianxia gripped the Wangquan Sword, a magic talisman flew out from his body, instantly causing his aura to soar to a level that could match Dongfang Yuechu's.

The incredibly violent golden sword light ripped through everything, falling toward Lucas with unstoppable force, threatening to split him in two.

"Indeed, a powerful attack!"

Lucas looked at the sharp sword light descending from above and commented in a calm tone as he raised his hand to construct a spatial barrier in front of himself.

The rays of light from the Space Stone and Power Stone intertwined, creating a purple, sparkling spatial barrier that deflected the Wangquan Sword's slash with a resounding bang.

"You can only use this attack once, right?"

"It seems this was your confidence in dealing with Jin Renfeng."

Lucas looked at Wangquan Tianxia with a cold expression. After the sword strike, Wangquan Tianxia's energy plummeted, and the magic talisman on his body turned to ashes.

"Now it's my turn!"

The Space Stone in Lucas's hand lit up, and powerful spatial pressure crushed Wangquan Tianxia and his followers, killing them instantly.

"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully killing a system owner and obtaining a complete collection of spells from the Fox Spirit World!"

All the spells in the Fox Spirit World, including human Taoism and demon magic, appeared in Lucas's mind and were mastered by him.

"So many spells..."

Lucas clicked his tongue in surprise. The Taoism and sorcery in the Fox Spirit World were more comprehensive than the magic in Jackie Chan's Adventures.

With a wave of his hand, Lucas summoned the Wangquan Sword to himself. The powerful sword energy emanated from the blade as it landed in his grasp.

IN THE CHAT GROUP:

Dongfang Yuechu: "I didn't expect that Wangquan Tianxia actually took the Wangquan Sword with him. Now the Wangquan family will be devastated. What kind of Wangquan family would they be without the Wangquan Sword?"

Senju Tobirama: "Group Leader! In the original future, did the Wangquan family perish?"

Lucas: "Yes, they were destroyed! But unlike the Dongfang family, the Wangquan family was divided into two and became the Wang family and the Quan family. I can be certain that their heritage didn't disappear, but whether their bloodline was cut off, I don't know."

Gengetsu Hōzuki: "It seems like fate—the families that once reached the pinnacle will inevitably disappear in the end."

Lucas: "The families that once reached the pinnacle will inevitably disappear? What you said reminds me of an old saying—'Since ancient times, beauty has been ill-fated.'"

Senju Tobirama: "Beauty is ill-fated? It's like those families that were once prosperous."

Lucas: "Don't rush to feel emotional—listen to what I have to say first. 'Since ancient times, beauty has been ill-fated,' and later generations added a second line—'Who cares about the life and death of ugly ghosts?'"

Senju Tobirama: "..."

Lucas: "'Since ancient times, beauty has been ill-fated—who cares about the life and death of ugly ghosts?' This is the complete saying! You feel that those families that flourished for a time will inevitably disappear, but what about those families that existed silently and disappeared silently?"

Uchiha Madara: "Every clan inevitably disappears, so clans crave fame and power. The former ensures they'll be remembered after they're gone, and the latter allows them to endure as long as possible."

Namikaze Minato: "Group Leader, are you planning to enter this world more deeply?"

Lucas: "No, this world doesn't need me to save it."

Dongfang Yuechu: "Group Leader, how about letting me stay in this world? I want to try changing it..."

Lucas: "No problem! @Howard Stark, prepare some management books for him."

Howard Stark: "Okay!"

Han Fei: "Group Leader, are we finished with this world?"

Lucas: "Yeah! We'll leave the follow-up to Dongfang Yuechu. You don't expect me to do everything, do you?"

Han Fei: "Yeah! I don't know if I'm dead in my world or not! However, there's nothing in my attribute list that I can offer you..."

Lucas: "For the sake of you being able to join my chat group, I can help you without payment."

Sword God Ryuma: "No way? I remember that the Group Leader tried every means to extract treasures from us!"

Lucas: "Can this situation be compared to those? Besides, I know very well that Han Fei is genuinely poor!"

Han Fei: "..."

As an ordinary person, Han Fei truly didn't have any treasures, and his attribute column was quite bare.

Gold Thief Woonan: "So the reason the Group Leader is being so generous is because he knows there's no chance to extract anything from Han Fei? Since he can't squeeze out any, he has no choice but to be generously offer help for free."

Lucas: "What nonsense are you talking? If you keep being this honest, you'll be banned."

IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD:

Han Fei gave Lucas the world pass to his world, and Lucas immediately used it to travel to the world of Tianxing Jiuge.

As soon as he arrived in this world, Lucas summoned a large number of Shadowkhan and ordered them to investigate important information.

IN THE CHAT GROUP:

Han Fei: "Group Leader, can you reveal the original future as usual? I bet that my death must be related to the transmigrator. He must be eager to kill me, definitely because I would threaten him in the future."

Lucas: "You're quite confident!"

Han Fei: "Of course! According to my original plan, after returning to Saiguo, I would assist my father the king, implement drastic reforms in the country, and achieve prosperity and military strength. Only when the country is powerful can I unify this troubled world."

Golden Lion Shiki: "Shihahaha! Unification in troubled times? I like your ambition."

Pirate King Roger: "Is this also a world in chaos? It seems the Group Leader is going to save this world too."

Han Fei: "If possible, I hope the Group Leader will leave me the opportunity to save the world myself. Ending the chaotic era and realizing peace and unification was once a dream I was willing to give my life to achieve."

Lucas: "Very well! If you want to end this world's troubles with your own hands, I will definitely fulfill your wish."

Han Fei: "Thank you, Group Leader!"

Pirate King Roger: "What does this world look like? We've encountered several different types of chaotic worlds. Which kind does this one belong to?"

Lucas: "This world has seven countries standing side by side, fighting each other. Like the Ninja World, it's a chaotic world caused by national conflicts. The Pirate World and the Akame ga Kill World faced chaos caused by the corruption of ruling institutions, while the Fox Spirit World experienced turmoil brought about by racial rivalries."

Han Fei: "I am the son of the monarch of Saiguo, which is one of the seven major countries. My birth puts me among the elite of this world, but unfortunately, Saiguo is the weakest of the seven major countries."

Chapter 193: A Time Traveler with an Awkward Identity!

Han Fei explained that although his country was the weakest among the seven major countries, he had been studying abroad for many years and had cultivated impressive skills.

As long as he was allowed to return to his country to take power and implement his plans, he would surely make his country stronger, and domination of the world would not be out of reach.

Han Fei: "Group Leader, what was the original future of this world? I want to know if I managed to unify this troubled world."

Lucas: "What a pity! Even in the original future, you couldn't unify the troubled world."

Han Fei: "Why? I think my talent is sufficient to turn the world around."

Lucas: "Han Fei, do you think too highly of your abilities? I admit that you are indeed very talented, but the cards in your hand are too poor."

Han Fei: "Group Leader, can you tell me why I failed? I don't think it was due to a lack of ability."

Lucas: "If you really want to know, in a sense, your failure is due to lack of ability. If your ability were truly extraordinary, you could win even with bad cards."

Han Fei: "Okay! I won't be proud anymore. Group Leader, please tell me straight! Why did I ultimately fail despite my abilities?"

Lucas: "Because the country you chose is too disadvantaged! Didn't you just say it yourself? Your Saiguo is the weakest of the seven major countries. Saiguo's geographical location is too unfavorable, making it almost impossible for it to become stronger."

Senju Hashirama: "Why can't this country become stronger?"

Lucas: "Saiguo's geographical location is similar to the Fire Kingdom's, with hostile countries in all directions. The difference is that the Fire Kingdom is the strongest among all countries, while Saiguo is the weakest."

Uchiha Madara: "That is to say, although this country is a major power in name, it is essentially no different from a small country. Living in the cracks between great powers is destined to make it a battlefield for other countries."

Lucas: "That's right! There's a saying that specifically describes the geographical location of countries—'Golden Corners, Silver Edges, Grass Belly.' It means that countries in the corners of the map are in the best position, those on the edges are the next best, and those in the center are in the worst position. Saiguo happens to be located in the center of the map, surrounded by hostile countries. It can be called a place of four-directional warfare."

Lucas: "If Saiguo were strong enough, this might not be a problem, but it's the weakest. This means that no matter which direction it tries to expand, it must fight against a country stronger than itself, while simultaneously guarding against enemy attacks from the other three directions."

Uchiha Madara: "Unless they have supernatural powers to overcome enemy countries, it's impossible for this country to rule the world."

Lucas: "It's a pity that there are no such supernatural powers in this world. A huge army is the most powerful weapon here."

Whitebeard: "Then Han Fei, you don't need to struggle—it's useless."

Han Fei: "Your judgment is premature! I have a way to reverse Saiguo's situation. By establishing a common enemy for all countries, and then having Saiguo work with other countries, I can break the deadlock."

Han Fei: "It's a coincidence that the most powerful Qin State among the seven kingdoms lies to the west of Saiguo, and it has already shown ambitions of conquering the world. Under this common threat, Saiguo can join with the other five countries to defeat Qin. This way, Saiguo would have an opportunity to develop westward."

Lucas: "You're thinking too simplistically. The strategy of forming vertical and horizontal alliances isn't something you invented. Yet after so many years, the Qin State continues to grow steadily. Are you certain you can unite with the other states to defeat Qin?"

Lucas: "Besides, a country's strength is also crucial when dividing spoils. With just Saiguo's strength, are you sure it can secure a foothold for westward expansion?"

Han Fei: "It all depends on the person leading!"

Lucas: "Fine! Even if you could overcome these external difficulties, how would you solve the internal problems? Your situation is almost like Sunagakure in the Ninja World—obviously the weakest, yet still consumed by internal fighting."

Lucas: "First, there's your father. As Saiguo's monarch, he lacks ambition and can't even manage his own subordinates, causing internal chaos. The Prime Minister, as head of the civil service, is stubborn and corrupt. General Ji Wuye, the military leader, is also a major traitor."

Lucas: "So, do you understand the situation you'll face? If you want to strengthen Saiguo, you must make drastic changes. This requires the unreserved support of someone with real power. Does your father have that courage?"

Lucas: "Even if your father were willing to support you, you'd still face obstruction from the heads of the civil service and military. You don't have any allies in the Saiguo court—are you sure those officials would listen to you? If they create obstacles, any decision could be implemented in a way that brings disaster to the country and its people."

Han Fei: "..."

Stressed!

When Lucas talked about the external environment, Han Fei could still speak confidently—after all, he had been thinking about these issues for years. But the complicated internal situation of the country gave him a headache, as he didn't understand these matters at all.

Not afraid of god-like opponents, but afraid of useless teammates!

The key was that his teammates weren't just incompetent—they were wolves that wanted to fight against him.

After being speechless for a moment, Han Fei suddenly asked curiously: "Since I failed in the end, why did this transmigrator kill me?"

Lucas: "Maybe it's because you have good luck with women, and the transmigrator was afraid you would take away his love interest. Or maybe it's because you're clever—you might not succeed yourself, but you could prevent others from succeeding."

Han Fei: "If it's the first reason, I'll feel very sad; if it's the second reason, I can accept it. Although my talent isn't enough to realize my dream, I can at least block the ambitions of others."

IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD:

A large black shadow appeared beside Lucas, and a shadowkhan emerged one by one to report what they had discovered.

The silent communication between Lucas and the ninjas made Han Fei anxious in the chat group, and he couldn't help asking: "Group Leader, has the world changed much? I hope my relatives and friends haven't been affected by this transmigrator."

With an odd smile on his face, Lucas shook his head and said, "I'm afraid your relatives and friends have already been affected. Your sister, Han Qin, has already been sent to the Qin State."

IN THE CHAT GROUP:

Han Fei: "How could this happen? Wait! Did this incident occur in the original future?"

Lucas: "This incident did not happen in the original future, so I can be certain that it was caused by the transmigrator. After all, your sister, Han Qin, is a rare beauty in this era, so it's not surprising that others would covet her."

Han Fei: "Group Leader, can you help me rescue my sister? I beg you."

Lucas: "Don't worry, you'll see her soon. Space is nothing to me, and The Shadowkhan have already collected information about your family."

IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD:

The Space Stone on Lucas's finger glowed, and he disappeared from the spot, appearing in Xianyang, the capital of the Qin State.

THE PRIME MINISTER'S RESIDENCE:

Seeing the scene through Lucas's eyes, Han Fei was surprised and said: "The transmigrator is from Lu Buwei's family, the Prime Minister of the Qin State? No wonder he was able to bring Han Qin here by his own means."

Lucas shook his head and said: "No, it's more extreme than you think. The transmigrator isn't from Lu Buwei's family—he's a soul transmigrator who has taken over Lu Buwei's body. That is to say, the transmigrator this time is Lu Buwei himself!"

Dongfang Yuechu: "Soul possession?"

Uchiha Madara: "What is soul possession?"

Lucas: "To use an analogy—imagine Senju Tobirama's soul merging with your soul, and after the fusion, a completely new soul emerges. The consciousness is dominated by Senju Tobirama—that would be Senju Tobirama taking over your body."

Uchiha Madara: "He wants to take me over with his weak mental strength? Just kidding!"

Senju Tobirama: "Group Leader, please don't use me with Uchiha Madara in the future. I have standards of cleanliness."

Uchiha Madara: "Damn you!"

Senju Hashirama: "This means that the transmigrator has taken over Lu Buwei, right?"

Lucas: "That's right! The Shadowkhan told me that the current Lu Buwei is very different from the future Lu Buwei. Many of the measures he's implemented involve knowledge that people of this era shouldn't possess."

Han Fei: "In other words, that old guy Lu Buwei is the one who targeted my sister? Damn! Wait, has my sister arrived yet?!"

Lucas: "Don't worry! I've sensed it—your sister is still a day's journey away from here. And don't worry, Lu Buwei won't live to see her arrival."

IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD:

Lucas concealed himself and used his spatial ability to enter Lu Buwei's mansion silently. He soon found Lu Buwei deep in thought.

"Such a pity!"

"Lu Buwei's identity is too awkward. Otherwise, I really wouldn't mind helping Brother Zheng."

"No way! For my own survival, I can only let Brother Zheng die."

"With my embarrassing status, no matter how talented I am, Brother Zheng would never accept me."

Lu Buwei muttered to himself while thinking.

Chapter 194: What Kind of Magical Method Is This?

IN THE CHAT GROUP:

Lo Pei: "Is Lu Buwei the Lu Buwei from the Qin Dynasty? I am a researcher of antiques, and still has some understanding of ancient Eastern history."

Lucas: "Finally figured it out?"

Lo Pei: "I didn't think about it before. After all, the worlds I've come into contact with previously aren't connected. And regarding the Qin Dynasty—are we in the same world?"

Lucas: "What a pity! You're not in the same world in different time periods, but in entirely different worlds. The Qin Dynasty in this world may be somewhat similar to what you know, but it's also very different."

Howard Stark: "My world also has many similarities with the world of Jackie Chan's Adventures. I just checked the information, and my world also has the Qin Dynasty, Lu Buwei, and even Han Fei."

Lucas: "The world of Jackie Chan's Adventures has demons and mages, and the Marvel world has mutants, Sorcerer Supremes, and even aliens. The Qin Dynasty in your world is very different from this one."

Howard Stark: "When I was searching for information about Lu Buwei, I found some scandalous news about him. Is he the biological father of Qin Shi Huang?"

Sebastian Shaw: "He actually cuckolded his emperor? This guy is really something! Wasn't he afraid of death?"

Gengetsu Hōzuki: "The 'Brother Zheng' he mentioned just now is the emperor who was cuckolded by him, right? No! To be precise, it should be the emperor whose wife was taken by Lu Buwei."

Uchiha Shisui: "The transmigrator discovered that he had taken over Lu Buwei's body, and was worried that the emperor would kill Lu Buwei after finding out what he had done, so he thought it would be better to strike first?"

Lo Pei: "No! The 'Brother Zheng' he was referring to should be Qin Shi Huang, the supposed son of Lu Buwei according to the scandal, and the Qin Shi Huang who later unified the Seven Warring States!"

Dongfang Yuechu: "What is the transmigrator worried about? His son is the future emperor! According to what he just said, he actually wants to kill his own son?"

Lucas: "Dongfang Yuechu, are you too naive? In politics, there are no fathers and sons! For Qin Shi Huang, the existence of Lu Buwei is a threat to him, and it can even be said to be a source of shame."

Howard Stark: "That's right! Although history records that Lu Buwei committed suicide by taking poison, the scandalous rumors indicate that his suicide may have been coerced by Qin Shi Huang."

Lucas: "Of course! Historical records aren't necessarily reliable—after all, the scholars who write history are often shameless. But this kind of thing doesn't matter anyway—it's not the same world."

Sebastian Shaw: "Suddenly I feel that Qin Shi Huang's nominal father is a little pitiful—he was cuckolded by his own courtier. Wait, Qin Shi Huang's nominal father wasn't a woman, right? I remember that King Arthur was a woman."

Lancelot: "..."

Howard Stark: "No, Qin Shi Huang's father was definitely a man. And Qin Shi Huang birth wasn't the result of cuckolding, but because Qin Shi Huang's nominal father shamelessly took Lu Buwei's woman."

Sebastian Shaw: "What? Tell me more details, I don't have a computer here."

Howard Stark: "The historical data in my world shows that Qin Shi Huang's mother was originally Lu Buwei's concubine. Later, Qin Shi Huang's nominal father took a fancy to her, and they became intimate without Lu Buwei's knowledge."

Howard Stark: "After discovering this, Lu Buwei gave his concubine to the king for the sake of political power and status. Because there was an ambiguous timeline involved, there was a dispute about who Qin Shi Huang's real father was."

Han Fei: "Originally, I thought King Qin was quite pitiful, but it turns out he wasn't a good person either. Taking his vassal's woman made the origins of his only son a mystery. Isn't this a self-inflicted problem?"

Sebastian Shaw: "Is that King Qin really a man?"

Han Fei: "I can tell you with certainty that he is indeed a man!"

Lucas: "King Arthur is a special case. It's rare for historical figures to change genders like that."

Han Fei: "Group Leader, do you plan to kill this transmigrator immediately?"

Lucas: "Of course! Why, what else would you want to do with him? Spare him? I can tell you with certainty that you are not his match. Maybe you're more intelligent than him, but his knowledge, vision, experience, and even material resources are far beyond yours."

Han Fei: "I believe that! Since I've become history in other worlds, as a transmigrator, he should have more advanced knowledge. It's better to kill him—it will save trouble later."

IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD:

Lucas stared at Lu Buwei for a while and abandoned the idea of communicating with this transmigrator. From the intelligence gathered by The Shadowkhan, Lucas knew that the transmigrator's system wasn't combat-oriented.

This transmigrator's system could provide him with seeds, technology, and even knowledge from later generations, and it could also give him some abilities from low-level martial arts worlds. But the system couldn't give him anything with powerful combat capabilities.

Lucas calmly raised his palm, and the Power Stone emitted a purple radiance, directly reducing Lu Buwei to nothingness.

"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully killing a system owner and obtaining the skill—Body Possession (can perfectly capture the body of others)"

Lucas: "..."

It's really a useless skill—why would he need to use the method of taking over someone else's body?

Lucas was speechless and disappointed.

Using his spatial ability to leave immediately, Lucas appeared outside Xianyang City, in front of a procession escorting a bride.

The Red Lotus Princess of Saiguo had been captured by Lu Buwei, who had threatened King Han to marry her to him. At this moment, Han Qin was sitting in a sedan chair.

The invisible Conqueror's Haki released from Lucas instantly made the irrelevant escorts faint.

Han Qin noticed the strange occurrence outside and quickly got out of the sedan chair, just in time to see Han Fei walking out of a coffin.

"Brother, why are you here?"

Han Qin looked at Han Fei with joy, but soon realized something was wrong with him. "What's happened to you? It feels like you have some strange affliction."

Han Fei said helplessly: "Don't mention it, it's complicated! I'm here to tell you good news. You don't need to marry that awful old man Lu Buwei. Do you want to leave with me now?"

Hong Lian was startled and said with a sad expression: "But my father told me that if I don't go through with this marriage, our country will be in danger."

Han Fei smiled and said: "Don't worry! Lu Buwei has died unexpectedly, so his threats are meaningless now."

Han Qin said happily: "Really? Then I'll definitely leave with you!"

Lucas said indifferently: "It's not suitable for you to chat here. Is there any place you'd like to go?"

Han Qin looked at Lucas curiously and asked Han Fei: "Brother, who is he?"

Han Fei hesitated: "You can call him uncle..."

Lucas looked Han Qin up and down and smiled: "Lucas—that's my name! Nice to meet you, Han Qin!"

Han Fei looked at Lucas vigilantly, suddenly feeling a sense of danger that his sister might be targeted. He scratched his head and said, "Well then, Mr. Lucas, can you send us back to Saiguo?"

Lucas raised his eyebrows and asked: "Are you sure? Going back there isn't a good choice for you!"

Han Fei said helplessly: "Do I have any other options?"

Lucas touched his chin and said: "Actually, you do! I can give you the Taoism from the Fox Spirit World, and you can try to become a powerful person in this world."

IN THE CHAT GROUP:

Senju Tobirama: "Group Leader, there should be no way for people who have been reincarnated to continue growing stronger, right?"

Lucas: "Who said that? People in the state of Edo Tensei have bodies made of ash and soil. They don't have flesh and blood, so physical cultivation methods can't make them stronger. However, Taoism in the Fox Spirit World cultivates the soul!"

Senju Tobirama: "Is that even possible?"

Uchiha Madara: "Even if you don't cultivate the soul, people in a state of Edo Tensei can still become stronger. Who said the only way to become stronger is by strengthening the soul and body? Is it not possible to learn more and stronger ninjutsu and even senjutsu to become more powerful?"

Senju Tobirama: "This is the Forbidden Technique I invented! What are you being proud about?"

Uchiha Madara: "So what if this is the Forbidden Technique you invented? If you don't understand what you invented, it only shows that you're an idiot."

IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD:

Han Fei was deep in thought.

After Lucas's previous explanation, he had realized that making his country strong enough to conquer the six other states was a difficult and almost impossible task.

In this case, it seemed like a good idea to cultivate Taoism from another world and make himself strong enough to be considered equal to a country.

IN THE CHAT GROUP:

Lucas: "And Han Fei, don't forget, the influence left by the transmigrator on the Qin State is still present. Even though he's dead, the policies he implemented can still make the Qin State continue to grow stronger."

Han Fei: "Group Leader, are you sure about that?"

Lucas: "Is there any reason to doubt it? Shang Yang has been dead for many years, yet haven't the measures he left behind continued to make Qin stronger?"

Han Fei: "I mean that after Lu Buwei's death, his political enemies are likely to purge his legacy, and the policies he implemented may also be erased."

Lucas: "Don't be foolish! Shang Yang was also purged after his death. Has his legacy been wiped out? You can't pin your hopes of success on the stupidity of your enemies."

Han Fei: "What else can I do? I started with such bad cards—I have no choice but to hope the enemy makes mistakes!"

IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD:

Han Qin looked at Lucas and Han Fei and asked in confusion: "Why did you both suddenly stop talking? What was that about Fox Spirit Taoism just now?"

Lucas smiled and said: "Let your brother explain this to you! Now, I'll send you both back to Xinzheng, the capital of Saiguo first."

The Space Stone flashed, and the surrounding scene began to spin. Lucas transported Han Qin and Han Fei back to Xinzheng, the capital of Saiguo.

"You... you... you..."

Han Qin was stunned. What kind of magical method was this?

"You two talk among yourselves. I'll look around for a while."

Lucas said to them before immediately departing.

Chapter 195: I Won't Refute It This Time!

In the chat group:

Lo Pei: "Oops! Why did the screen suddenly go black?"

Senju Tobirama: "This is the Group Leader closing our perception of the outside world. We can no longer observe everything around him."

Senju Hashirama: "How could this be? After the Group Leader became the Ten Tails Jinchūriki, he shouldn't need to use the toilet or sleep. Why would he turn off our perception?"

Golden Lion Shiki: "Does this even need to be asked? When the Group Leader met a beautiful girl before, he also closed our perception."

Han Fei: "Group Leader, where have you been? It wasn't my father's harem, was it?"

Lucas: "What are you thinking? I came to a place called Zi Lan Xuan. Speaking of which, this place has significant connections to your fate!"

Han Fei: "There's a strong connection to me?"

Lucas: "Yes! In the original future, you met like-minded partners and friends here. In order to realize your wish to unify the world, you set up an organization called Quicksand with them to eradicate Ji Wuye, who has been manipulating Saiguo from behind the scenes."

Han Fei: "I just thought of a question—in the original future, what happened to Han Qin after I failed?"

Lucas: "Han Qin became an assassin and joined an assassin group. The predecessor of that assassin group was the Quicksand organization you founded."

Han Fei: "Could someone like Han Qin really become an assassin?"

Lucas: "People grow and change, and suffering can transform a person."

Han Fei: "I've made up my mind—I want to learn Taoism! Since knowledge alone can't help me unify this troubled world, I want to have strength rivaling that of an entire country."

Lucas: "No problem! I can lend you the Wangquan Sword; it will be much easier for you with its help. This is the supreme magical weapon in the Fox Spirit World—don't dishonor its name."

Howard Stark: "Group Leader, wouldn't it be more useful to provide Han Fei with scientific technology? For example, give him a few planes and tanks. These would definitely help him easily conquer this troubled world."

Lucas: "That idea is possible, but it wouldn't fit the style of this world. And don't people need training to control planes and tanks? Even with unmanned systems, they'd be difficult to use in this world without any infrastructure."

Howard Stark: "Didn't you acquire an all-purpose Warhammer? I remember it's the technological crystallization of a cosmic empire. As long as one has the technology, it wouldn't be difficult to develop machines that could help Han Fei dominate the world."

Lucas: "That's my oversight. I did say I would give you the Universal Warhammer to study. Don't worry, I'll have a clone deliver it to you."

In the outside world:

Lucas created two avatars—one with the Universal Warhammer to send to Howard Stark in the Marvel World, and the other with the Wangquan Sword to send to Han Fei.

"What's this?" The purple-dressed woman beside Lucas looked curious. She had been forcibly summoned to Lucas's side by a spatial technique. After realizing the mystery of Lucas's overwhelming power, she had immediately switched from her role as proprietress to that of an attendant.

Lucas explained calmly, "They are my doppelgangers. There are some matters that need to be handled by them."

The purple-dressed woman nodded. "No wonder they look exactly like you. Is there any significant difference between them and you?"

Lucas pondered. "The difference is significant—after all, they are essentially insubstantial. What, do you want to learn this technique?"

The purple-dressed woman was surprised. "I can learn this magical method too?"

Lucas laughed. "Of course! But these techniques might be complicated for you to use. I suggest you learn something else. Have you heard of Taoist magic?"

If the purple-dressed woman wanted to learn the Shadow Clone Technique, Lucas could naturally teach her. Even if she couldn't cultivate Chakra herself due to the differences between worlds, Lucas could share his Chakra with her.

But for this world, Chakra and ninjutsu were always a little out of place. Lucas was more willing to teach her the Taoism of the Fox Spirit World. This was more practical than ninjutsu—at least it didn't require complex hand seals.

In the chat group:

Han Fei: "Group Leader, I have already received the Wangquan Sword. When will Taoism be given to me?"

Ding! Lucas sent an exclusive red envelope [Taoism Spells] to group member Han Fei.

Uchiha Madara: "Damn it! Can the Group Leader send the skills he has acquired to others? In this way, all of us could have the abilities of other people in the chat group!"

Senju Tobirama: "That's really a way to get stronger. We could obtain a huge number of skills simply by accepting red envelopes."

Lucas: "Don't get ahead of yourselves! It's my privilege as the Group Leader to extract formed skills directly from you. What I sent to Han Fei is only the training method—he has to practice it himself."

Han Fei: "Indeed! But this cultivation method suits my aptitude very well. I feel that I can cultivate it to a very high level in a short period of time."

Lo Pei: "Is the magic of the Fox Spirit World so simple?"

Lucas: "No! Some people are better at intellectual pursuits than physical ones. The Taoist magic of the Fox Spirit World is designed for intelligent practitioners. The higher one's intelligence, the easier it is to practice."

Lucas remembered the attribute template he had encountered before. The [Intelligence] attribute was equivalent to mana bars, and intelligence in the Fox Spirit World functioned similarly. Since Han Fei himself was a highly intelligent person, the Taoist magic of the Fox Spirit World naturally suited him well.

Uchiha Madara: "If that's the case, then the Taoist magic of the Fox Spirit World will do nothing to Hashirama. Group Leader, can you give me a copy of the method too?"

Senju Tobirama: " Madara, have you no shame? You're actually praising your own intelligence indirectly. A loser who has been fooled for half his life has the audacity to praise his own intelligence? The world has gone mad."

Just as Uchiha Madara and Senju Tobirama were about to argue again, Howard Stark suddenly interrupted.

Howard Stark: "Group Leader, there's a problem in the Marvel world."

Lucas: "What's wrong? It can't be Thanos attacking again!"

Sebastian Shaw: "It's not a problem with aliens—it's a problem on our own planet. To be precise, it's a problem caused by our fellow mutants."

Howard Stark: "That's right! A mutant named Apocalypse suddenly appeared on Earth. It's said that he was the king of ancient Egypt thousands of years ago. Then he fell into a deep sleep for some unknown reason, and suddenly awakened not long ago."

Sebastian Shaw: "After awakening, this guy demonstrated his power to everyone. He disintegrated the city next to the pyramids, built a massive pyramid in just minutes, and declared his intention to rule the world."

Liu Xing: "It sounds a bit like the Earth Style: Earth Flow Jutsu. Haven't humans used nuclear weapons? No matter how powerful someone is, nuclear weapons should still pose a threat."

In the Star-Stealing World where Liu Xing comes from, even those with supernatural abilities aren't invincible, and modern weapons can still destroy them.

Sebastian Shaw: "Humans have used nuclear weapons, but Apocalypse has mutant abilities that render human nuclear weapons ineffective. Not only that, but modern weapons like aircraft and tanks are also useless against him."

Howard Stark: "Apocalypse announced that he would establish his own kingdom on Earth and grant mutants superior status. Professor Charles had made tremendous efforts to help humans and mutants coexist peacefully. Now, with Apocalypse's arrival, the tension between humans and mutants has intensified again."

Sebastian Shaw: "That conflict isn't even the main issue right now. The most pressing question is how we deal with Apocalypse himself."

Uchiha Madara: "What about Magneto? Doesn't he always advocate for mutant superiority?"

Howard Stark: "He, like Sebastian Shaw, chose not to join Apocalypse. Although all three of them want to build a mutant empire, they each want it to be their own empire."

Sebastian Shaw: "We've all been leaders—Apocalypse's rhetoric can't fool us. If we want mutants to be superior, we can achieve that with our own strength. Why would we become subordinates to Apocalypse?"

Senju Tobirama: "There's another important reason why you want the Group Leader to eliminate Apocalypse—he has become your competitor, right? You and Madara really are the same type of person!"

Uchiha Madara: "I won't refute it this time!"

Lucas: "This is truly troublesome! If that's the case, then I'll go meet this mutant."

Howard Stark: "Group Leader, Apocalypse doesn't have just one ability. The number of abilities he has demonstrated isn't fewer than those of the Universal Warhammer."

Lucas: "Rest assured, I know about Apocalypse. He can disable nuclear weapons and modern aircraft and tanks because he has the ability to control technological equipment through electromagnetic waves.

He can decompose the city next to the pyramid and form a new pyramid because he has mastered molecular reorganization and even atomic transformation—skills that are quite advanced even by scientific standards."

Sebastian Shaw: "This guy has scientific abilities too?"

Lucas: "Don't underestimate him! He was able to create a mental shielding helmet out of sand using just a piece of memory."
