At that moment.
Xiao Fang's hair stood on end.
He felt a chill rush from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
He turned his head stiffly to look at the mirror.
The Xiao Fang in the mirror was still motionless.
He stood with his arms crossed, watching Xiao Fang.
Xiao Fang finally saw the other's appearance clearly.
He looked exactly like Xiao Fang.
However, the other's eyes were blood-red.
Just like when Xiao Fang used his Slaughter Talent.
The two looked at each other through the mirror.
The Xiao Fang in the mirror slowly leaned back.
Behind him, a blood-red throne suddenly appeared.
The Xiao Fang in the mirror sat steadily on the throne.
He cupped his hand into a fist, resting his chin on it.
His blood-red eyes stared at the Xiao Fang outside the mirror.
A smile, seemingly an innate royal disdain, played on his lips.
A powerful, terrifying aura of dominion emanated from him.
"Surprised?"
A voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
Xiao Fang tensed up again.
He looked at the scene before him in disbelief.
His reflection in the mirror spoke?
How could he not be surprised by this?
The shock in his heart lingered, refusing to subside.
Finally, Xiao Fang asked the first profoundly philosophical question.
"Who are you?"
The Xiao Fang in the mirror sat on the blood-red throne.
That condescending, disdainful, and lazy voice echoed in his mind again.
"Who am I? That's a question worth exploring!
But I have many titles!
Zero Arbiter!
Head of the Seven Kings!
King of Slaughter!
Godslayer!
Or you can call me the Destroyer of Gods!
But I also have a title that counts as a name.
Xiao Fang.
If you must ask who I am!
I am you!"
The tumultuous waves in Xiao Fang's heart surged one after another.
He felt like his CPU was about to burn out.
Everything before him had far exceeded his understanding.
The Xiao Fang in the mirror had a smile on his lips.
"You are me?"
Xiao Fang absolutely did not believe it. He was just an ordinary, excellent student, excelling in character, learning, appearance, and all aspects of morality, intelligence, physical education, art, and labor. The aura of supremacy emanating from the other person was simply not his own.
The Xiao Fang in the mirror sat on the throne, resting his chin.
"This question is not worth contemplating right now. There's no need to waste time on it.
With your current strength, you can only see me for three minutes. After three minutes, everything will return to normal. One minute and forty-seven seconds have already passed.
So, I'll keep some things brief for you.
As a Godslayer possessing the Slaughter Talent, you don't seem to fully understand your talent. You only know that you can increase your combat power through slaughter.
But do you know that you can also devour others' talents through slaughter, or upgrade your existing talents by slaughtering enemies with the same talent? All your current talents, except for your Light-Based Talent, were obtained through slaughter!
This ability is the truly terrifying aspect of the Slaughter Talent!
Of course, you also have another ability: through slaughter, you can nourish me. I am like the King of Slaughter who has signed a contract with you. You can summon me when you are in danger, and I can take over your body for three minutes. Of course, currently, I can only unleash peak level five combat power!
To summon me, you only need to activate the Slaughter Rune, place your hand over your heart, and silently chant 'Ssaya', and I will descend!
Oh, and you need to be wary of someone.
The one who wanted to...
The rest of the sentence was abruptly cut off.
The image in the mirror distorted, like a television screen that had lost its signal.
"Who?" Xiao Fang quickly leaned closer to the mirror to ask. The Xiao Fang in the mirror also leaned closer.
They stared at each other.
Their eyes held the same blankness.
Xiao Fang moved, and his reflection in the mirror also moved.
Three minutes had passed.
Everything returned to normal.
Xiao Fang leaned against the sink. Everything that happened today was beyond his imagination.
He washed his face.
Xiao Fang stared at the mirror.
The Xiao Fang in the mirror reminded him to be wary of someone.
Who should he be wary of?
The sentence was cut short.
What was going to happen to me today?
Xiao Fang immediately thought of Zhuge Heng.
Because the only person who put pressure on Xiao Fang in reality was this handsome white-haired guy from the monster room.
Be wary of him?
Who else could it be?
It seemed he would have to wait until tomorrow night to ask the mirror again.
His aunt's concerned voice came from outside the bathroom.
"Xiao Xin, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Why have you been in the bathroom for so long?"
Xiao Fang immediately said, "I was playing on my phone for a bit!"
"You child, hurry up and rest!"
Jiang Weidong's voice immediately came, like a sycophant, "Look at you, what's wrong with Xiao Xin playing for a bit? Xiao Xin has the ability to play, if the child wants to play, let him play!"
Fang Huilan scoffed, completely disapproving of Jiang Weidong's groveling behavior.
After Xiao Fang returned to his bedroom, his gaze refocused on his grandfather's package.
There was no return address, only Xiao Fang's address and the recipient's name.
He put his phone in the drawer's hidden compartment.
Xiao Fang looked at the full moon outside the window.
He pondered what he had seen and heard.
He looked at his hand.
He hadn't expected his talent to be able to improve.
But he had never heard of talents being able to improve.
Xiao Fang was woken up early in the morning by Jiang Xiaoyu's crying.
Jiang Weidong had gotten up early that morning to buy Xiao Fang's favorite steamed buns from a particular shop.
But he forgot to buy Jiang Xiaoyu the milk tea she wanted.
Jiang Xiaoyu, emboldened by her decent grades yesterday, pointed at Jiang Weidong's nose and cursed, "Why did you buy for Xiao Fang and not for me? And you ran so far! Isn't Xiao Fang just a little better in grades? Look at what you've become since Xiao Fang's grades came out! I'm your biological daughter! He's just a motherless and fatherless thing! Why are you spoiling him so much? You really have no backbone at all!"
"I'm your dad! How can you talk to me like that!"
"Just because you gave birth to me doesn't necessarily mean you're my dad!" Jiang Xiaoyu shrieked.
Slap!
An exasperated Jiang Weidong slapped her.
Jiang Weidong was an adult after all, and the force of the slap was considerable.
Jiang Xiaoyu's Beast Taming Talent couldn't enhance her facial defense, and Jiang Weidong's slap twisted her face, silencing her.
After Xiao Fang washed up and was eating, Jiang Xiaoyu glared at Xiao Fang, her teeth grinding, but she dared not speak her anger. She aggressively clanked her spoon against her bowl while eating porridge, making an irritating noise.
"Xiaoyu, what happened to your face?" Xiao Fang asked, knowing full well, as he ate.
Jiang Weidong immediately smoothed things over with a smile, "This child, she spoke disrespectfully, so I taught her a lesson."
Xiao Fang immediately grabbed Jiang Weidong's hand, "Oh! Uncle, are your hands alright!"
"I'm fine, I'm fine!" Hearing Xiao Fang's concern, Jiang Weidong immediately beamed with joy.
Xiao Fang turned his head to look at Jiang Xiaoyu, "Xiaoyu, how old are you? How can you be so thoughtless, hitting your dad's hand with your face! Look at how you've hit my uncle's hand! His lifeline is even crooked!"
Jiang Weidong's face stiffened.
Jiang Xiaoyu's tears immediately gushed out. She covered her mouth and ran back to her room, crying.
"Look how happy that made the child!"
Jiang Xiaocha suppressed a laugh.
Fang Huilan lightly poked Xiao Fang's head with her finger, "How can you be so naughty?"
Jiang Xiaocha laughed, "Mom, my brother's sharp tongue isn't new!"
Jiang Weidong immediately corrected, "What sharp tongue? Your brother is humorous!"
Xiao Fang shook his head, unable to help but recall an ancient book he had read from over four hundred years ago, which contained a story called "Fan Jin Passes the Imperial Examination." At this moment, Jiang Weidong's every move somewhat resembled Fan Jin's father-in-law.
"Brother, school's out today, where are you going?" Jiang Xiaocha asked.
"I made plans with a classmate, going out to play."
As he was speaking.
His phone vibrated, and Chu Xinyao's voice message immediately followed.
"Calling student Xiao Fang!
I've left, feeling good!
Where should we meet?"
....
Captain Xiao pressed his earpiece.
"Everyone prepare! Chu Xinyao has already left and is heading to the Ocean Theme Park! The enemy has already moved. Spare no effort, ensure her safety!"
Ellie suddenly looked up.
"Captain Xiao, there's another thing. Qin Junhao has also chosen the Ocean Theme Park as the venue for entertaining his classmates!"
