Chapter 27
This was actually a mistake of Yang Xi’s, forming a quick judgment of Liu Yuan based on just his first impression of the latter. From the very beginning, he’d regarded Liu Yuan as a playboy without any Esper Abilities. Even though Yang Xi had slapped him 18 times, he did not form the thought of using Strip on Liu Yuan.
“Get up first. I already know your sincerity.”
Yang Xi carefully probed Liu Yuan.
He still looks somewhat silly. Could I really be just overthinking things?
Or was the Puppet Control ability actually so unreliable?
“I’ll modify your spirit first so that you can absorb the Esper Ability Potion to strengthen your foundation.”
It was good to wear a mask. Although Yang Xi was panicking inside, Liu Yuan could not tell at all. After hearing Yang Xi’s words, Liu Yuan only hesitated for a moment before immediately nodding his head in agreement.
This young lord is going all out today! If he wanted to kill me, he could have done it easily at the nightclub. He doesn’t have to wait until now.
“I’ll have to trouble boss West Chicken then!”
Seeing Liu Yuan obediently let go of his thighs and maintaining a safe distance from him, Yang Xi finally heaved a sigh of relief. Now, he could confirm that Liu Yuan was not the old schemer he thought he was.
That was close!
“You don’t have to call me that. Since I’ve already decided to help you obtain an Esper Ability, I can be considered your guide. Just call me teacher will do.”
“Should I call you teacher? But I feel that’s still too distant. How about I address you as Godfather? From your voice, you’re about the same age as my old man.”
Yang Xi :”…”
He had really underestimated this Young Master Liu. This lad was really a genius!
Just this gesture of calling him Godfather, he felt that giving him a Grade-E bloodline Esper Ability was too stingy.
“Ahem, alright then I’ll acknowledge you as my Godson. You will feel a little dizzy later, so bear with it.
Yang Xi shot a Spirit Shock at Liu Yuan, who was lying on the sleeping bag without any defense. Liu Yuan really couldn’t hold on for even a second and fainted instantly.
“From the looks of it, it doesn’t seem like he has an Esper Ability. Even if it’s a Grade-C Esper Ability that’s not easy to discover, it should have at least been able to increase his mental strength.”
Yang Xi extended his hand and activated Strip.
A familiar feeling welled up in his heart.
“My Godson really has an Esper Ability!”
Yang Xi was shocked!
[Esper Ability: Rebirth
Introduction: After death, one will be reborn anew, returning to one day before the incident (The Esper Ability will completely disappear after being used).
Evaluation: Grade-A. Can only be used after death. Useless.]
Yang Xi was stunned by his sudden luck.
Liu Yuan, this Godson that he just acknowledged, was actually a Grade-A Esper?
F*ck, the Liu family’s genes were too good, right? A family of three Grade-As!
Furthermore, Liu Yuan’s Esper Ability was a bug-level revival skill. Although he could only use it once and there was no increase in his combat power, it was not too much to evaluate it as a Grade-S ability!
“Returning to one day before death.”
This wasn’t just revival. It was also related to the rules of time! After reviving, wouldn’t he be able to predict what would happen next? If he prepared well, he would definitely be able to turn the tables around!
As for the ability disappearing after using it, although it was a pity, it was also very normal. This was the price of rebirth!
“Should I disassemble this Grade-A Esper Ability?”
If he were to break it down into two Grade-B Dark Energy Cubes, Yang Xi’s strength would definitely soar by a huge margin.
However, he did not dare to attempt it because he was afraid that the rebirth effect would disappear after disassembly.
According to his previous experience, the effect would be greatly reduced after the Esper Ability’s level was lowered.
If a Grade-A Rebirth skill turned into three Grade-B Rebirths, wouldn’t he be able to escape death three times? This would be even stronger!
But perhaps the resulting Grade-B Esper Ability would only be able to recover 70 percent of his health or something like that. That would be a huge loss.
“Liu Yuan ah, Liu Yuan, I really didn’t lose out in acknowledging you as my Godson!”
Yang Xi sighed and sat at the side, waiting for Liu Yuan to wake up. The latter’s originally flat face was now rather pleasing to his eyes.
Could it be that acknowledging this Godson would really allow the two of them to get close at once?
Finally, Liu Yuan woke up and Yang Xi started his plan.
He didn’t use his Esper Ability on Liu Yuan anymore. On account of this unexpected Esper Ability gift, Yang Xi decided to give his Godson a chance to work for him from the bottom of his heart instead of brainwashing him with his Esper Ability.
After all, Puppet Control could only brainwash Liu Yuan for a month. It was safer and more convenient to use the charm of West Chicken to influence Liu Yuan.
The newly acquired Rebirth ability was also the reason why Yang Xi could be so willful.
“Godfather, did I sleep for a long time? I’m so sorry to make you wait for me!”
In order to obtain the Esper Ability, Liu Yuan was very respectful.
Although he couldn’t see the expression on Godfather West Chicken’s face, he could sense that the other party had suddenly become more friendly.
He did not call him Godfather for nothing. I, Liu Yuan, am truly a genius!
“It’s fine. It’s only right for Godfather to wait for my Godson. However, I can’t delay my work in our organization for long.”
Yang Xi started to control his tone and emotions.
Next up was the time for acting.
When Liu Yuan heard the word “organization”, he thought to himself that it was indeed the case.
Godfather West Chicken was indeed not alone. As expected, there was a huge organization behind him.
Quite likely, Kunlun Management Agency might not even be qualified to carry his shoes. Could it be those Grade-S organizations that were second only to the Heroes Association?
“Of course. Don’t worry, Godfather. I wonder… what is our organization?”
Liu Yuan probed as his heart thumped.
“Slowly listen to me first.” Yang Xi softened his tone.
“Do you know what is the essence of Esper Abilities?”
“Actually, everyone on Planet Azure has the potential to become an Esper. The difference between an Esper and an ordinary person is that they have an extra something on them.”
“This thing is called the ‘Esper Ability Gene’ by our organization.”
“Do you see the ring on my finger? This is a Star Devouring Ring created by the organization. This ring can steal Esper Ability Genes from Espers.”
“And through special methods, the Esper Ability Genes can then be made into the ‘Esper Ability Potions’ that allows ordinary people to have Esper Abilities.”
Yang Xi mysteriously took out the starry sky-colored Esper Ability Potion from his pocket.
Liu Yuan’s hands started to tremble. “Godfather, is this the method that can help me obtain an Esper Ability?”
Yang Xi nodded. “As long as you drink the Esper Ability Potion, you will immediately possess an Esper Ability.”
“Godfather, please give me this Esper Ability Potion. I’ll do anything you want me to!”
Liu Yuan still could not take his eyes off the ‘Esper Ability Potion’. If not for the deterrence that Yang Xi had given him, he would have tried to snatch it long ago.
Yang Xi threw the Esper Ability Potion to Liu Yuan. “Drink it. After you obtain the Esper Ability, you will discover the beauty of power!”
“After you become an Esper, the organization will naturally need your help.”
