Chapter 212: Numerous Peach Blossom Luck Users

“Science really is too difficult!”

Chen Xiyi could not help but sigh. After the various equipment and facilities he needed arrived, he started further studies.

Inside the Underground Shelter, a massive glass tank was filled with large amounts of nutrient fluid, and an embryo was slowly developing. For now, it was only showing initial results.

His eyes looked vacant because his Primordial Spirit had already connected to the internet through translation codes, downloading large amounts of data he needed into his System.

People had to keep up with the times. If he really relied on reading books bit by bit himself, when would he ever finish? It was much easier to directly invade the network and download.

“What a pity. Many confidential files are stored in the intranet, so there is not much data that can be obtained.”

It was impossible for confidential files to be kept in the outer network, of course. These confidential files referred to things like weapon blueprints or important research data. Things like account books or criminal evidence did not count; what would Chen Xiyi want with those things?

However, he did discover an interesting place: the dark web.

Inside, there were mercenaries, assassins, and even Supernatural Ability Users, Martial Artists, and other such news. Here, he found a bunch of Dragon Kings, Asuras, War Gods, and so on.

Unfortunately, they had all disappeared now. Even people in the dark web were discussing their whereabouts, with most saying they were dead.

But Chen Xiyi knew they were working as security guards, street loafers, landlords, or even live-in sons-in-law, etc.

Looking at these young people with incredibly resounding titles, their resumes and battle records were unbelievably strong. Either they had destroyed a small country single-handedly or taken the enemy leader’s head amidst thousands of troops. It seemed completely inhuman.

Besides these, there were also many Divine Doctor types. In short, one pill could guarantee the regeneration of severed limbs, completely surpassing modern technology as black-tech products. There were many of this type, all said to be made by certain Divine Doctors.

“This gives me a feeling of mass production. There must be some conspiracy behind this.” Chen Xiyi was adjusting the embryo, a trace of curiosity in his expression.

One or two might be accidents, but there were so many, all with the same character settings like copy-paste. If there were no problems with this, Chen Xiyi dared to twist his own head off.

This embryo was something Chen Xiyi adjusted to test these copy-pasted people.

Looking at the dark web, there were at least four-digit numbers of the same superhuman character settings, plus many others like King Soldiers or Divine Generals emerging from certain special forces.

“If one extremely beautiful ultimate sea queen isn’t enough, then make a thousand. Each can keep a dozen or so War Gods, Asuras, Divine Doctors, etc. As long as the tier is high enough, they will surely beat each other’s brains out.”

Mass-producing beauties might have been somewhat difficult for the previous Chen Xiyi, but for the current Chen Xiyi, it was not much of a problem.

It was just cloning. He could adjust using Human Qi to get whatever type he wanted, and a new batch would grow after some time.

The main difficulty was how to make these mass-produced beauties become sea queens, green teas, etc. That was the real challenge.

Chen Xiyi was still collecting various data.

Not long ago, he had killed a young man with the Asura prefix. His abilities were a replica: Peach Blossom Luck at the head, a god-tier ability in the middle, plus a minor achievement ability.

But the things collected were normal; Peach Blossom Luck was not collected. As for the two abilities, that was even more impossible.

If Peach Blossom Luck were an organ-type ability, it could really be collected, like the previous Spiritual Root and Phoenix Bloodline. Unfortunately, it was not.

The strength of these people was not high, but they had an eerie power.

It seemed to stem from the power of Peach Blossom Luck. Things like turning misfortune into blessing or meeting calamity only to find good fortune were simple examples. There were also cases where they actively or passively attracted women with a certain level of appearance, and it might even generate various corresponding events.

“This power could be considered a force of fate, and it also had certain effects like reducing intelligence, brainwashing, or taunting to achieve various face-slapping scenarios.”

Chen Xiyi understood through big data, continuously integrating these people’s behaviors and events. The repetition rate was as high as 90%, with the remaining 10% being different face-slapping based on identity reasons.

As for where this big data came from?

Of course, he collected it himself through satellites, surveillance, etc. It couldn’t have fallen from the sky; that was impossible.

He also collected the situations of these people before they immersed themselves in the gentle embrace. It could be said they were completely different people, fully matching their prefixes.

Take Chu Ge, who had the War God prefix, for example. Chen Xiyi found footage of him executing a mission once. His expression was resolute and bright, really like a War God.

But after immersing himself in the gentle embrace, he became completely like a breeding stallion in heat. Women were the focus, and all kinds of women surrounded him, all having relations with him.

“Where there is abnormality, there must be deceit. If there was only one, he would definitely be the Protagonist. But when the number reached four digits, this was no longer the Protagonist. More importantly, the various parties and forces had not noticed any anomalies at all.”

“Perhaps it is the power of Peach Blossom Luck?”

Chen Xiyi was not a native NPC of this world, so he was an outsider and might see things more clearly.

Anyway, he did not find any research phenomena about this type of person through the internet, whether from the authorities, Noble Families, or people in the dark web.

“Ximen Yue? What is he coming to me for? And he brought someone—the son of the previous security company manager. Trouble has come knocking.” Chen Xiyi’s expression turned cold.

He was sure of one thing: the Ximen Family had encountered trouble, and big trouble at that.

If he had brought someone else, it might be some minor trouble. But bringing this person meant it was definitely Chu Ge’s doing.

Chen Xiyi was considering whether to take action. Essentially, he did not want to get involved, but living in the modern world, many things were not as convenient as in ancient times.

He could avoid meeting them and even use illusion arrays to prevent them from finding him. But if they later cut off his water and electricity, with his temper, he would definitely collect the entire families of those causing trouble.

He did not care about collecting or not; the main issue was that it wasted Time, and what he collected was not even good stuff.

“Let’s meet first. I will refuse them directly then. If they don’t know their place, then I will just collect the entire Ximen Family along with Black Eagle Security.” After some thought, Chen Xiyi decided just like that.

After teleporting back to the small cottage above ground and tidying up a bit, the sound of a car outside arrived soon after.

“Sir, Mr. Chen, please help us quickly.” A knocking sound came from outside the door. Chen Xiyi leisurely went to open it.

He saw Ximen Yue rushing over, carrying that young man on his back. This young man’s limbs were twisted, and his body looked strange.

That was not even the main point. The main point seemed to be that his internal organs were injured by various clever forces. How to put it? He was crippled.

He would not die, but he would lie in bed for the rest of his life, tormented by excruciating pain every moment.

“Wow, this young man is quite unique. Having nothing better to do, he actually turned himself into a piece of performance art.” Chen Xiyi could not help but tease: “The one who did this is an expert. With all his bones broken and internal organs in chaos, he still managed to keep him alive. Truly amazing.”

“In this condition, why bring him to me instead of sending him to the hospital?”

Chen Xiyi did not ask how Ximen Yue found him. He had left too many traces; for the number one family in Yanzhou, it was not a problem at all.

Ximen Yue carried the young man inside and then said, “He was injured by that Chu Ge. The hospitals and martial arts halls can’t do anything. I had no choice but to beg you to help.”

[Company Vice Manager Ling Hu, Health Points: 30%, Status: Severe Injury, Paralysis, Excruciating Pain]

Seeing the three statuses, Chen Xiyi could not help but chuckle lightly: “I told you not to provoke him, yet you still did.”

“Besides, how do you know I can save him?”

“Master, we all know your capabilities. How could you not be able to save him?” After placing Ling Hu on the recliner, Ximen Yue wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a hint of flattery.

“Save me, and I will pay any amount of money.” Ling Hu forcefully endured the excruciating pain and spoke hoarsely.

He knew Ximen Yue wanted to rely on emotional appeals, but without offering some substantive benefits, who would be willing to help?

“I don’t lack money. Besides, do you think Ximen Group and your Black Eagle Company can really hold on?” Chen Xiyi said as he turned on the TV.

The TV was broadcasting two breaking news reports.

The first was that Ling Shen, the general manager of Black Eagle Security’s Yanzhou branch, was dismissed and under investigation. Seeing this, Ling Hu’s pupils contracted, and he knew in his heart that he was finished.

The second was that Ximen Group was seized for involving arms trafficking, human trafficking, economic crimes, and a total of ninety-two charges, large and small. Pulling up a carrot brought out the mud; every upper-level member of Ximen Group who could be counted was taken into custody.

On their way here, a behemoth and those in high positions had simultaneously fallen just like that.

Ximen Yue’s face changed. Without the Ximen Family and Ximen Group, his future days would not be easy. He could not act so smoothly anymore.

Fortunately, he was a collateral branch and not qualified to enter Ximen Group, so he escaped this disaster. But with Ximen Group and the Ximen Family gone, his company would probably decline as well.

Chen Xiyi casually turned off the TV and looked at the two: “Any thoughts?”

Ximen Yue smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to respond for a moment.

Ling Hu looked ashen; he knew he had lost his power and had no capital to recover.

They both knew this was just the beginning, not the end.

“I’m sorry to bother you, sir. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave now. There is no need to trouble you with this matter, lest you get into trouble.” Ximen Yue said with a sigh, glanced at Ling Hu again, and prepared to carry him away.

But Chen Xiyi reached out and stopped Ximen Yue, who was about to carry Ling Hu: “Young Master Ling, have you ever thought about working for me? I estimate your father won’t be coming out. If you go back, you will probably survive, but you know in your heart how you will live the rest of your life, right?”

He was a talent, at least in Chen Xiyi’s eyes.

So, with some modifications, he could become a qualified and useful tool.

Especially in Chen Xiyi’s desire to investigate these Peach Blossom Luck possessors.

“Aren’t you afraid of offending powerful people?” Ling Hu barely lifted his head and replied in a lifeless voice.

“I am someone who fears trouble, but not powerful people.” Chen Xiyi was not even afraid of NPCs without health bars, so why would he fear a bunch of things with health bars?

“Alright, I will work for you. But you must help me kill Chu Ge. I…”

“Not really feasible. I will cure you, and you will work for me. No extra conditions. Nod if you agree; leave if you don’t.” Chen Xiyi would not indulge him. Did he still want to negotiate terms with him?

By doing this, not only was he saving the other’s life, but he also had to bear certain risks. And yet, the other dared to ask for more?

“Ten seconds to consider. Yes or no. Think carefully whether your life is more important or venting anger is more important.” Chen Xiyi watched the silent Ling Hu and started counting down: “One, two…”

As the countdown decreased, Ling Hu finally spoke: “I agree.”

“Very good, it is settled then.” Chen Xiyi looked at Ximen Yue: “As for you, my suggestion remains the same: take your entire family, young and old, and leave. Leave Yanzhou. The money you made over the years should be enough for you to live on.”
