Is It Too Late to Leave the Chat Group?

Back then, Chen Heng took a risk and stole the ancestral crystal back, but he was discovered. After thinking about it, he decided to hide at Mo Qingtong’s place, as he was familiar with only her family. Unexpectedly, the Mo Clan’s clan head had been there. At first, Chen Heng did not know, but the Mo Clan’s clan head revealed himself later. The Mo Clan’s clan head was well-informed; he had found out that Chen Heng had stolen the culprit’s “heirloom” (as claimed by the culprit), so the Mo Clan’s clan head moved to subdue Chen Heng.

Later on, the culprit sent someone to pick up Chen Heng, saying that they would not hurt or kill him on account of Mo Qingtong. However, she still felt worried and followed them. They got attacked along the way. The target was Chen Heng. She protected him with everything she had but for naught. In the end, the attackers killed Chen Heng, stole the crystal, and severely injured the culprit’s subordinates (arranged by the culprit himself).

In reality, Chen Heng had contacted the Ji Clan after stealing the crystal. Previously, he did not have proof. Now that he had the crystal, he did not have to worry about the Ji Clan not believing him. Ji Yi was the Ji Clan’s youngest daughter, and the Jis deeply loved her. Even when they chased her out of the house, they did not strike her off the genealogical record. The Ji Clan felt enraged after Ji Yi died, but the hidden culprit had perfectly wiped out all evidence.

Just a little more time. The Ji Clan would have arrived in just a little more time.

Chen Heng had awakened his attraction ability at the age of eight. However, his parents had hidden it. It was good to have a trump card in the hidden world. That was also why the hidden culprit did not make a move on Chen Heng, a child who only knew sword techniques and was protected by the Ji Clan. After all, the risk was not worth the benefit.

“When my ability grows stronger, I will create a fake, second-hand, low-end version of a miniature black hole. Let’s see if that crushes you.

“Calm down! Calm down! Creating a black hole does not seem too realistic. Right now, the most important thing is to take back the ancestral crystal and convert my inner strength into spiritual energy. No, I can’t. What if I get discovered? While I can flee, Sirin can’t. But one month later won’t work because there’s still Ryougi Shiki. What should I do?”

[TL Note: There are two categories of Chinese martial arts, external and internal. External martial arts focus on building up the body. Internal martial arts utilize breathing, stances, meditation, and other methods to reinforce the body in a fight. Cultivation has some similarities in that it cultivates inner strength/energy and uses qi (energy) flow. The difference is that internal martial arts exist in real life (effects not proven), and cultivation is a fictional exaggeration or only exists in myths and legends. The Taiji Fist is an example of an internal martial art. Here is a Wikipedia link on internal martial arts; it has some information on inner strength: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neigong.]

“I can only ask for help. That Yakumo Yukari’s Gap ability seems like a good choice. I should spend some free time playing her game to understand her ability better.”

Chen Heng glanced at his watch to check the time. “It’s already ten-thirty. I should go to sleep. Today has been exhilarating. It feels like a long time has passed.”

After Chen Heng left the basement, he took a bottle of water from the fridge and headed to his room after finishing it.

When Chen Heng walked past Sirin’s room, he noticed light beneath the door. It looked like she was not asleep yet.

Knock! Knock! Knock! Chen Heng knocked on the door. “Sirin, do sleep earlier! Also, I’m going out tomorrow morning. I will have breakfast ready for you in the microwave. If it is cold, just use the microwave to reheat it.”

“Got it, Elder Brother.”

Chen Heng had experienced this phase. It was normal for young children to play with their cell phones. It would be fine as long as she did not sleep too late. Hopefully, Sirin will wake up for breakfast tomorrow.

Honestly speaking, if not for experiencing so much today, Chen Heng would not go to sleep so early. It was only ten-thirty. Midnight was the start of the nightlife. However, he felt tired. After all, he had joined the Dimension Administrators Association, caught an illegal transmigrator, adopted Sirin, learned mid-tier cooking, brought Sirin to the night amusement park, and undergone the ability second awakening.

As Chen Heng lay in bed, he decided to look up Yakumo Yukari’s information. After all, it likely would not take much time. Since he might be asking her for help, how could he not find out more?

Chen Heng spent thirty minutes looking up all the information on Yakumo Yukari in the association’s store. To put it in a nutshell, she was a master thief. This old woman was unfathomable. Her ability to manipulate boundaries was truly incredible. There was also that Gap that could appear anywhere.

I’ve decided. I choose you, Yakumo Yukari!

Her ability is very suitable for stealing things. If she gets discovered, she can run if she cannot win.

Well, I’ll sleep first. There are plenty of things to do tomorrow. I need to visit the unconscious Ryougi Shiki and make dinner at Mo Qingtong’s home.

As for discussing the heist with Yakumo Yukari, I’ll decide after visiting Ryougi Shiki tomorrow. There should be something special about her, right? After all, the world consciousness sent her here from another world.

Girl in Prayer…

[TL Note: Girl in Prayer… is a Chinese meme from Touhou Project’s loading screen. It basically means “Now loading….” Look at the picture in the link below; the Chinese words above Now Loading… are Girl in Prayer…, instead of Now Loading… in Chinese. The author likely used this to indicate Chen Heng was sleeping. Here is a picture of that loading screen: https://imgur.com/a/lS9G4rF.]

The next day, Chen Heng’s biological clock woke him up at six. After washing up, he went to the basement to practice the sword. Although he had already practiced the Chen Clan’s sword technique to consummation, he persisted in practicing it daily, waking up at six and practicing for one hour after washing up. This guaranteed that his sword technique would not regress.

Although cultivators and ability users looked down on martial artists, not even considering them part of the hidden world, the inner strength that martial artists cultivated allowed them to defeat dozens of ordinary people with no problem. As for a sword practitioner like Chen Heng, such a feat would be even easier.

The Clan Clan’s sword technique was called the Chen Clan Sword Technique, nothing else. The Chen Clan’s cultivation technique was likewise called the Chen Clan Cultivation Technique. The Chen Clan martial artists and cultivators practiced the same technique. However, they needed the ancestral crystal to convert inner strength into spiritual energy. They needed to absorb a wisp of unique, extremely high-quality spiritual energy from it. This wisp of spiritual energy could also be used to increase their chances of breaking through to the next cultivation realm. The crystal could absorb natural spiritual energy and refine it into this high-quality spiritual energy, but the crystal produced only a wisp every year.

A powerful ancestor of the Chen Clan had put in a lot of effort to make this crystal more than a thousand years ago. This ancestor was said to be highly protective of his descendants. However, he went missing later on.

For some reason, after this ancestor went missing, the Chen Clan was reduced to a single line of descent every generation. Furthermore, it would be either of the following situations: their talents were poor, and they died before living to 200 years old, or their talents were excellent, and they died before 100. Chen Xuan was rather unfortunate, dying before 40.

Right now, Chen Heng was considering going to another world after snatching back the ancestral crystal.

After practicing the sword, Chen Heng took a shower, then made breakfast. High-quality ingredients only required the simplest cooking methods, so he decided to make egg fried rice. Yes, egg fried rice. Even after learning mid-tier cooking, he did not like to cook; he just needed to fill his stomach. As for why he was willing to cook a lavish meal for Sirin? Well, that was his first time cooking for Sirin, so he had to leave a good impression.

After eating a portion of the egg fried rice, he placed the remainder in the microwave, hoping Sirin would wake up early and not need to reheat the food. Otherwise, it would affect the texture.

Although it was just egg fried rice, it still was delectable, due to his mid-tier cooking.

After dealing with everything, he checked the hospital’s name on the invoice and finally left.
