    Chapter 183

    Su Hao's attention had never left the Life Bearer.

    Although he appeared to be resting with his eyes closed, his radar continuously monitored every movement inside Dongling Pavilion.

    Suddenly—

    His eyes snapped open.

    "Someone is evolving?"

    One of the Sixth-Tier Mutants standing beside the Life Bearer had entered the evolution process.

    Su Hao immediately recognized it.

    He had witnessed too many evolutions to mistake the unique fluctuations of Blood Energy.

    There was no doubt.

    Someone was advancing to the Seventh Tier.

    What surprised him most...

    was the complete lack of reaction from the Life Bearer.

    He frowned.

    "Has the Life Bearer already been captured and controlled?"

    It was a possibility...

    but not a very likely one.

    The old man had survived for countless years and ruled Huiyang City with overwhelming authority.

    Tomorrow was the Autumn Harvest Festival, and Sixth-Tier Mutants from across the continent had already gathered outside the city.

    The disappearance of All-Seeing alone should have put him on the highest alert.

    Someone capable of surviving for so long would never lower his guard so easily.

    After thinking for a while, Su Hao arrived at another conclusion.

    "The disappearance of All-Seeing must have made the Life Bearer even more cautious."

    "Rather than being captured..."

    "He's probably choosing a successor in advance."

    Once he reached that conclusion...

    Su Hao stopped thinking about it.

    Whatever happened inside Dongling Pavilion had little to do with him.

    He only wanted one thing.

    A piece of the Life Bearer's flesh.

    Preferably...

    without turning Huiyang City into another Lingyuan City.


    ---

    Before going to sleep...

    Su Hao activated several warning runes around his residence.

    Even someone as powerful as he was...

    shouldn't make a habit of staying awake all night.


    ---

    His plan was simple.

    Tomorrow...

    he would approach the Life Bearer.

    Use layered Second-Level Lightning to paralyze him instantly.

    Cut off a piece of flesh.

    Then immediately retreat.

    With his flying speed...

    Even if every Seventh-Tier Mutant in Huiyang City chased after him...

    they wouldn't be able to catch him.

    If they couldn't catch him...

    there would be no battle.


    ---

    Meanwhile...

    Elsewhere in Huiyang City...

    Two people sat facing each other.

    Both appeared relaxed.

    Yet both remained secretly vigilant.


    ---

    They were the remaining two Seventh-Tier Mutants.

    Constant, Chang Xi of the Silk Folk lineage.

    And...

    Still, Yue Yi of the Speed Folk lineage.


    ---

    Back when Yue Yi had only reached the Fifth Tier...

    he had been completely suppressed by Chang Xi's thread techniques.

    But after advancing to the Sixth and Seventh Tiers...

    their strengths had become evenly matched.


    ---

    Every Seventh-Tier Mutant possessed their own domain.

    Still's domain...

    was absolute repulsion.

    Anything approaching his body would be deflected before it could touch him.

    Even Constant's razor-sharp threads...

    could never reach his body directly.

    Combined with Blood Resistance...

    Neither side possessed an easy method of killing the other.

    Unless...

    they managed a perfect surprise attack.


    ---

    Still toyed with the teacup in his hand.

    He was a tall, gaunt middle-aged man with sunken eyes that made him appear permanently sleep deprived.

    After a long silence...

    he finally spoke.

    "Constant."

    "Now that All-Seeing has disappeared..."

    "Our situation has become troublesome."

    "We've also lost the means to break through the Life Bearer's Diamond Armor."

    "Should we still proceed tomorrow?"


    ---

    Constant remained motionless beneath his high-collared robe.

    Only his neatly combed hair and sharp eyes were visible.

    "If you're willing to live beneath another Life Bearer for the rest of your life..."

    "Then do as you please."


    ---

    Still sneered.

    "You speak as though I'm the only one who wants the old man dead."

    "Constant..."

    "If you want us to cooperate..."

    "Adjust your attitude."

    "Otherwise..."

    "Neither of us will benefit."


    ---

    Constant ignored the complaint.

    "Tomorrow is our final opportunity."

    "Once the festival ends..."

    "The Life Bearer will complete the inheritance."

    "After that..."

    "It'll be too late."

    "We must kill him before he passes on his flesh."


    ---

    Still tilted his head.

    Muscles beneath his skin twitched irregularly.

    "Of course."

    "But All-Seeing is gone."

    "And now there's that mysterious man in black crystal armor."

    "Are you certain we can succeed?"


    ---

    Constant replied calmly.

    "I have no certainty."

    "But..."

    "I estimate our chances at over eighty percent."

    He paused briefly.

    "I also suspect..."

    "The man in black crystal armor is the Life Bearer's hidden trump card."


    ---

    Still laughed coldly.

    "Eighty percent?"

    "You're as arrogant as ever."


    ---

    Constant continued calmly.

    "I've already controlled five Earth Lords who came from outside Huiyang City."

    "They'll create enough chaos."


    ---

    Still nodded.

    "Fine."

    "We'll proceed according to your plan."

    He kicked over a nearby wooden crate.

    A long, transparent crystal chain slid out.

    "This is the Diamond Chain you wanted."


    ---

    Without moving...

    Constant extended countless invisible silk threads.

    The crystal chain floated into the air before disappearing beneath his sleeve.

    "Then..."

    "I'll take my leave."


    ---

    His body suddenly unraveled into countless fine silk threads.

    They scattered into the air before vanishing completely.

    Only then did Still realize...

    The person sitting before him had merely been a silk clone.


    ---

    Watching him disappear...

    Still suddenly couldn't hold back any longer.

    His shoulders shook violently.

    Then he burst into laughter.


    ---

    The next morning...

    The entire city awoke before dawn.

    Every household began preparing offerings.


    ---

    The Autumn Harvest Festival officially commenced.

    Representatives of every major faction gathered in the central plaza before the enormous ceremonial hall.

    Ordinary citizens crowded every available space to watch.

    The square became packed beyond capacity.


    ---

    Su Hao blended quietly into the crowd.

    Without drawing attention...

    he steadily worked his way toward the front.

    Normally...

    ordinary civilians weren't allowed beyond the outer perimeter.

    But...

    Su Hao's appearance worked in his favor once again.

    His handsome face.

    His calm bearing.

    His extraordinary temperament.

    Everyone naturally assumed he belonged to one of the city's great families.

    No one stopped him.


    ---

    After spending several days in Huiyang City...

    Su Hao had gained a profound realization.

    Being handsome...

    really did make life much easier.

    Perhaps...

    when he reincarnated again...

    he should first optimize his appearance.

    A better face might increase survival odds by ten percent.


    ---

    On the ceremonial platform...

    Three Seventh-Tier Mutants sat in their respective seats.

    The vacant position once occupied by All-Seeing had already been filled by a Sixth-Tier representative.


    ---

    Of course...

    Su Hao knew something nobody else did.

    There were actually...

    four Seventh-Tier Mutants present.


    ---

    Last night...

    Earth Lord Ji had already completed his evolution.

    He had become the new Life Bearer.

    Only he...

    the old Life Bearer...

    and Su Hao...

    were aware of this fact.

    Everyone else remained completely ignorant.


    ---

    The ceremony soon began.

    Its procedures were so complicated...

    that even Su Hao felt dizzy watching them.


    ---

    Still...

    he understood the logic.

    The more elaborate the ritual...

    the greater the sincerity it demonstrated.

    Only then...

    would the heavens acknowledge the prayers of mortals.


    ---

    While everyone focused on the ceremony...

    Su Hao quietly searched for the perfect opportunity.

    His multilayered Second-Level Lightning Rune had already been prepared.

    The moment arrived...

    no one nearby would have time to react.


    ---

    Still...

    he chose to wait.

    Today was sacred to the people of Huiyang City.

    Interrupting their ceremony without reason...

    would be rather impolite.


    ---

    Unfortunately...

    Someone else had no such consideration.


    ---

    The ground suddenly rippled.

    The earth transformed into countless silk threads.

    Like living serpents...

    they wrapped around the kneeling Life Bearer...

    lifting him high into the air.


    ---

    At the same instant...

    Brilliant diamond armor erupted across the Life Bearer's body.

    Every inch of him became encased in dazzling crystal.

    Although the countless silk threads tightened continuously...

    they couldn't advance even a fraction.


    ---

    Even though he had expected an attack...

    The Life Bearer was still furious.

    His booming voice echoed across the plaza.

    "Constant!"

    "How dare you!"


    ---

    The sudden attack threw the entire square into chaos.

    Ordinary citizens screamed and fled.

    Experience had taught them one simple truth.

    When the strongest fought...

    Running immediately was the only way to survive.


    ---

    Lower-tier Mutants scattered in every direction as well.

    No one dared interfere.

    When giants fought...

    Anyone caught in the middle died first.


    ---

    Standing within the panicked crowd...

    Su Hao's eyes lit up.

    The opportunity he had been waiting for...

    Had finally arrived.

    Chapter 182: Feelings Tarnished by Money

    Su Hao inquired, “Simple?”

    Xiaobu replied matter-of-factly, “Of course, in three days, Huaxiang City will hold the ‘Autumn Harvest Grand Festival,’ and it needs to be presided over by [Child of Fate] Boss. It’s the same every year. You’ll get to see him then!”

    Su Hao nodded and silently thought, “Do I have to wait three more days? I guess I can accept that.”

    Xiaobu curiously asked, “Do you admire [Child of Fate] Boss?”

    Su Hao nodded, saying, “Seems like it. He seems pretty formidable.”

    (TLN:

    There are two [Mingzi] in the previous chapter, so I changed the name of one of them to its evolution name [Lifebearer] to avoid confusion.

    明子 (Mingzi): Child of Clarity from [Nightwalker] sequence.

    命子 (Mingzi): Child of Fate aka [Lifebearer] from [Shell People] sequence.)

    But now I’ll use its translation name.)

    Xiaobu had stars in her eyes and said, “Indeed, Boss [Child of Fate] is our guardian deity in Huaxiang City. Everyone says that without him, we wouldn’t be where we are today.”

    Maybe seeing Su Hao’s confusion in his eyes, Xiaobu proudly explained, “Huaxiang City wasn’t like this before. I heard that it used to be very chaotic, with many outsiders causing destruction and fighting during both day and night. Many people died every day. But since the leader of the [Child of Fate] arrived, Huaxiang City changed into what you see now. Look how good it is! I really like it here.”

    Su Hao nodded and asked, “What about the other [Child]? Don’t they protect Huaxiang along with the leader of the [Child of Fate]?”

    Xiaobu continued, “I’m not sure, but I’ve heard others say that as long as Boss [Child of Fate] is around, the other three leaders, [Mingzi], [Changzi], and [Jingzi], get along peacefully. But, you see, Boss [Child of Fate] is already quite old. I don’t know how much longer he can keep it up. I don’t really understand it, but I just feel that Boss [Child of Fate] is very important.”

    If power and spirit are not passed down, everything built will gradually disappear with time.

    The ‘Dongling Pavilion’ wasn’t close, but Xiaobu chatted with Su Hao as they walked, and she didn’t feel tired. In fact, she became very excited because Su Hao was willing to accompany her and talk to her, and her gaze towards him grew increasingly fervent.

    This kind of flirtatious look made Su Hao feel uneasy, and he unconsciously distanced himself a bit, but Xiaobu kept following him everywhere they went.

    Perhaps, this is the dilemma of being handsome!

    The saying, “You run, he chases, even with wings, you can’t fly away,” turned out to be true.

    After wandering ‘Dongling Pavilion’ with Xiaobu, Su Hao couldn’t bear it any longer and said, “Xiaobu! Thank you for telling me so much today. We’ll meet again!”

    With that, he turned to leave. Xiaobu panicked, rushed up to him, and grabbed his sleeve, saying, “You haven’t told me where I can find you!”


    Su Hao calmly pulled his sleeve back and replied, “No need to find me; I’ll be leaving Huaxiang City in a few days.”

    Ignoring Xiaobu, he blended into the crowd and disappeared.

    Xiaobu stood there, watching Su Hao vanish, feeling a sense of loss she couldn’t put into words.

    After a while, someone patted her shoulder from behind.

    She turned to see, “Brother Wei!?”

    Xiaobu could hardly believe who she saw, and this feeling of unexpected joy instantly reinvigorated her.

    Su Hao handed her a bag of money and said, “Xiaobu, thank you for taking me so far today. This is your reward. Please take it.”

    After that, Su Hao turned and disappeared into the crowd once again.

    Xiaobu held the bag of money and stood still, feeling that her feelings had been tainted by money.

    After a moment, she shook the bag of money and surprisingly thought, “It’s not bad at all! Double harvest today, I’ve earned!”

    Waiting for three more days shouldn’t be a problem, especially since Su Hao still needed to find more information about the [Child of Fate] and the ‘Autumn Harvest Grand Festival.’ He couldn’t rely solely on Xiaobu’s unreliable information.

    But the results he obtained, while differing in some aspects, had two consistent points: the ‘Autumn Harvest Grand Festival’ was indeed happening in three days, and it would most likely be presided over by the leader of the [Child of Fate], just like in previous years.

    Because Su Hao had discovered that after killing the leader of a significant force in Huaxiang City, the [Child of Clarity Mingzi], the city should have fallen into a certain degree of chaos. However, it was quickly pacified, indicating how strong the control of the [Child of Fate] over Huaxiang City was. Huaxiang City’s affairs were still led by the [Child of Fate].

    Su Hao also noticed that in the past two days, more and more people had entered Huaxiang City. The streets were overcrowded, and if he had arrived just three days later, he might not have found a place to stay.

    Furthermore, Su Hao sensed an increasing number of powerful sixth-level mutants in his radar, which gave him a sense that something unusual was happening. He also remembered what the [Earth Lord] he had killed in Linyuan City had said, predicting the imminent death of the [Child of Fate] in Huaxiang City. It seemed that not only the [Earth Lord] from Anliang City but also [Earth Lords] from across the continent were converging here, waiting for the [Child of Fate] to die.

    Of course, it wasn’t just the [Earth Lord]; other sixth-level mutants probably came too, expecting a big battle to break out, seizing the opportunity.

    One should not assume that evolving from a sixth-level mutant to a [Lifebearer] is simple just because Su Hao and Yashan evolved very smoothly. In fact, the mortality rate for ordinary mutants attempting to evolve is quite high.

    To reach the next level, mutants must continually accumulate vital energy to reach a certain threshold for use in evolution.

    Su Hao had a special way to accumulate vital energy, but people in this world didn’t. To enhance their vital energy, they had to kill mutants of the same level and plunder fragments of their genetic code.

    However, once you reach the sixth level, mutants of the same level aren’t that easy to kill. Some sixth-level mutants can stand still and be impervious to attacks.

    Therefore, for sixth-level mutants, there are two major challenges to evolution: the first is accumulating vital energy, and the second is the nearly impossible task of consuming the flesh of seventh-level mutants.

    These two challenges almost stop the vast majority of sixth-level mutants from advancing. Only the lucky ones favored by fate, commonly known as protagonists, can overcome these difficulties and ultimately achieve evolution, becoming seventh-level mutants.

    So, for sixth-level mutants who want to evolve, the most important thing is to have access to reliable information. They usually like to occupy a city and establish an organization to collect information for themselves. Then, wherever there’s something happening, you’ll find their presence.

    They search the world for opportunities to evolve and aspire to become the top-ranked mutants on the continent.

    Su Hao sighed, “The ordinary people of Huaxiang City hope the [Child of Fate] lives well, but almost all the prepared [Earth Lords] hope for the [Child of Fate]’s death.”

    No matter what he did, there were always people hoping for the best and others hoping for the worst.

    These past two days, Su Hao didn’t do anything else but enjoyed traveling, experiencing exotic customs and witnessing the diversity of human life.

    On the night before the ‘Autumn Harvest Grand Festival,’ inside a study room at the ‘Dongling Pavilion.’

    An old man sat in the main seat, his bald head shining, no hair on his head, short white curly beard, his face full of wrinkles, and his skin dry and aged. The fine hairs on his earlobes had fallen out, making him look like an ordinary elderly man in appearance. However, his entire presence exuded immense power. Just sitting there, he made people dare not look into his eyes. This elderly body, with all its signs of aging, held unimaginable strength, the same power that had made countless mutants shiver.

    Even though he was old, no one dared to challenge his authority. He was the [Child of Fate] of Huaxiang City — Xiu!

    Standing in front of [Child of Fate] Xiu was a middle-aged man, his son, [The Earth Lord] Ji.

    [Child of Fate] Xiu didn’t speak; he simply pushed a tray forward.

    [Earth Lord] Ji saw what was on the tray, and his pupils contracted. A surge of electricity rushed to his brain, followed by immense joy filling his heart. He knew that it was the flesh and blood of the [Child of Fate]. Swallowing it would allow him to evolve into the ultimate form of the [Shell People] sequence, the [Earth Lord]. He would also become the new ruler of this city and a top figure in the world.

    He had waited for this day for too long.

    But as this excitement appeared, he suppressed it, not daring to reveal any signs of it. Instead, he pretended to ask in confusion, “[Child of Fate] Xiu, this is…”

    Yes, as Xiu’s son, he didn’t even dare to call his father “father.”
