Me and countless me.

Chapter 531 Father and Son 6k
Li Ke naturally had no idea what A Zi was thinking. After all, he only used the iron mask occasionally. If he had other things on hand, he wouldn't have used the iron mask and the Divine Wood Cauldron, which were actually quite inconvenient.

What intrigued him most now was Murong Guang's situation. After all, the other party had looked as if some monster had drained all his life force, which was why he had to resort to some unorthodox methods to save him.

“Miss Guang, you have not become an immortal. Rather, I have used some special technology to unlock some of your genetic potential. You can think of it as becoming an immortal human who can regenerate limbs and directly absorb the life force of various life forms. Moreover, your aptitude has been pushed to the limits of human potential.”

Because it was his version, Li Ke directly removed the ability to freely transform the body, but optimized other aspects to avoid the body having a great impact on the mind, and retained the ability to modify one's own tendencies.

Its biggest advantage is that it is still human, and can still cultivate human techniques and retain human hobbies and interests, unlike the ultimate creature in JOJO, which is a completely different kind of creature.

But Murong Guang looked at Li Ke with a puzzled expression.

“Isn’t this a god?”

Murong Guang tilted his head, but seeing Li Ke's speechless expression, he sighed helplessly and then naturally leaned against Li Ke.

She had been ruthlessly abandoned and used by her father and brother, and had completely given up on the Murong family. After all, she had repaid what she owed and done what she had to do. From this day forward, she, Murong Guang, had nothing to do with the Murong family anymore.

However, she did not want to return to the Duan family, because the Duan family had nothing to do with her. She absolutely did not believe that Duan Zhengchun would recognize someone like her as his daughter. After all, Duan Zhengchun was the future emperor of Dali, how could he allow himself to have such a scandal?

So she instinctively moved closer to Li Ke, not only because Li Ke gave her a sense of closeness, but also because Li Ke had saved her, and...

He is a reasonable person.

Murong Guang, whose heart was extremely fragile, nestled against Li Ke, greedily seeking that intimacy and warmth. Perhaps because she had regained her human form by relying on Li Ke's blood, she now had a strong urge to lick Li Ke.

It wasn't that she wanted to eat Li Ke, nor was it out of appetite; rather, she wanted to get closer to Li Ke, to touch Li Ke more, and to be touched by Li Ke.

"So, what happened to Miss Hikari?"

Li Ke asked the question subconsciously, and when Murong Guang heard this, she suddenly remembered that her brother Murong Fu had obtained the Seven Star Eye and could now confront Li Ke head-on. So she paused for a moment before speaking.

"Murong Fu has already mastered the Seven Star Eyes. A new eye has grown in the center of his forehead, possessing immense power. I don't know its specific effects, but I can sense that the eye is extremely powerful because it was created by Murong Fu using all the power of me and my father... Murong Bo to refine his own eye. Most of the power of our Murong family is also contained within the eye... Moreover, since he took my eye, the power of the Murong family's Star Eyes will become even stronger as a result."

Li Ke nodded upon hearing this; everything was correct.

The Sharingan evolves into the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, and then the Rinnegan is added, but this is just a speedrun version.

"So, Murong Bo is not far from death?"

Murong Guang nodded again. Although Murong Bo had reserved some of his strength to counter her, he was basically exhausted. At most, he could fight another expert of the same level before he would die.

He might even die suddenly while fighting against an expert of the same level. No matter how many elixirs he uses, unless he has the earth-shattering, awe-inspiring medical skills of Li Ke, he would absolutely not be able to survive.

"So what does Murong Guang want to do in the future?"

Because of the feeling of familiarity with Murong Guang, Li Ke subconsciously hugged Murong Guang into her arms. Murong Guang didn't think there was anything wrong with this behavior, and even subconsciously swayed inside Li Ke's body. However, because she was not yet familiar with this more voluptuous body, A Zi, who was standing to the side, showed the same shocked, astonished, disbelieving, yet longing expression as a golden retriever watching you pet other dogs!
"I was obviously the one who came first!"

Azi clenched her fists, increasingly longing to receive the same treatment as Murong Guang. However, considering that her flesh and blood were perfect food for these masked people, she decided to practice with Li Ke first and make sure she was strong enough before using this thing to find someone to experiment on!
Just thinking about how Li Ke always seemed to have an "inescapable punishment" attitude towards any evil made A Zi shudder, and she changed her mind.

"But if my brother-in-law finds out I'm using living people for drug trials, given his personality, he'll probably beat me so badly my own mother wouldn't recognize me... So, I'll use the drugs on people who just want to survive, or who are single-mindedly focused on revenge and don't care about anything else! Ideally, they should be people who have a good impression of me! That way, even my brother-in-law won't have anything to say about me!"

Thinking of this, Azi nodded, then propped her chin up, trying her best not to look at Li Ke and Murong Guang, who were about to kiss, and instead looked out the window, sighing.

"But where can I find someone like that?"

However, just as Azi was pondering this question, Murong Fu and Murong Bo arrived at a manor. At this time, the manor was bustling with activity, with countless people drinking and chatting, calling each other brothers. Among them were many local powerful figures, traveling merchants, and martial arts practitioners from other places.

After nodding at everything he saw, Murong Bo spoke to Murong Fu, who was standing to the side.

"Fu'er, although you have obtained the Seven Star Eye, you are not yet familiar with its power, so you need to practice more."

Looking at the manor inhabited by the two heroes of the You family, Murong Bo chuckled softly.

"Although the You brothers are not particularly skilled, they are quite famous in the martial arts world. Today is their son's coming-of-age banquet, so they have invited many martial arts heroes. Most importantly, after obtaining the Seven Star Eye, you can completely replicate the power of other people, and even use the 'Star Shift' technique to create different figures to fight. So you can completely disguise yourself as Qiao Feng and Li Ke, and carry out a massacre here, forcing Qiao Feng to revert to his Khitan identity and making Li Ke feared by the Song Dynasty emperor!"

Murong Bo had placed all his hopes for rebellion on Murong Fu. So, during the time Li Ke was rescuing Murong Guang, Murong Bo explained all his plans and preparations over the years to Murong Fu in a clear, thorough, and complete manner, leaving nothing out. And getting a hero like Qiao Feng back to Khitan and then forming an alliance with him was exactly what Murong Bo wanted.

At this moment, Murong Fu, who longed to unleash the power of the Seven Star Eye, would naturally not resist this opportunity.

"I understand, Father."

Murong Fu smiled slightly, looking greedily at the magnificent style of the You brothers. He needed money to start his rebellion, so he was not only here to test his martial arts skills, but also to get money!

So his eyes on his forehead suddenly opened, and the next moment, his figure transformed into the images of Li Ke and Qiao Feng in Murong Bo's eyes. However, when Murong Bo also opened his own starry eyes, he could barely make out that this was just Murong Fu mobilizing some of the power of the Star Shifting Technique to form a small humanoid phantom.

These phantoms can even circulate their internal energy on their own, form their own vision, and then fight independently!

Basically, they separated a Murong family expert whose cultivation was slightly inferior to Murong Fu's! Moreover, the formless matter technique, apart from requiring Murong Fu to control it himself, was almost a perfect move!
"As expected of the Seven Star Eye!"

As he spoke, Murong Bo saw the clone suddenly switch its cultivation method, which was the same internal energy he had seen before, Li Ke's. But the moment it switched to Li Ke's internal energy, the clone's power dropped rapidly!

"Hmm? Father, does that villain Li Ke really use this kind of internal energy?"

Murong Fu looked at his father, Murong Bo, with a puzzled expression. Although he did not think that Murong Bo would harm him, he really did not believe that such a trashy cultivation method could be practiced by a master who could force his father to place all his hopes on him!
So, thinking about it, he tried to use Li Ke's Cosmic Sword Technique from the martial arts memories that Murong Bo had passed on to him. But the moment he used it, he felt his clone's essence and spirit being rapidly drained, and then he collapsed to the ground, his meridians completely destroyed!

He couldn't help but feel a wave of fear, because if he had used that technique himself, just that one strike would have crippled him!
Murong Bo was also taken aback when he saw this, and then frowned.

"It is indeed this mental cultivation method. It looks like a divine skill. There should be a deeper level of meridian circulation that I didn't see, but it's not a problem for you, Fu'er. You should be able to see through his internal energy cultivation method!"

Murong Fu nodded. The Seven Star Eyes were indeed incredibly powerful. He could now even see through rocks several meters high to see what was hidden. Therefore, he was confident that he could see through the internal energy cultivation techniques that his father, Murong Bo, could not!

With a thought, the clone was recreated. Then, Murong Fu glared and an illusion was attached to the clone, making it appear to everyone else as Li Ke. Then, the power of the Seven Star Eyes was activated again, and a sword made entirely of internal energy appeared in the clone's hand, looking exactly like Li Ke's Cosmic Sword Technique.

Murong Fu's figure also changed in a flash, quickly transforming into Qiao Feng's appearance. However, after looking at Qiao Feng's unruly style of dress, he frowned slightly. Then, in the next moment, he himself transformed into Li Ke's appearance, while his clone transformed into Qiao Feng's appearance.

Looking at the water on one side, Murong Fu nodded in satisfaction.

Li Ke was trained in etiquette from a young age, so she exuded an air of nobility. Her confident gaze and undisguised pride were particularly captivating, even to Murong Fu. While Qiao Feng possessed a heroic spirit, his rugged,江湖 (jianghu, the world of martial arts and chivalry) nature was undeniable. Therefore, even if it were a role-playing, Murong Fu would much rather portray Li Ke!

The next moment, Murong Fu's figure suddenly rushed towards the manor below, then transformed into Qiao Feng's clone to lead the charge, heading straight for those martial arts figures!

A martial arts practitioner, upon hearing the commotion, initially thought it was an attack, but upon seeing Qiao Feng's face, his expression immediately lit up with surprise and delight!
"Chief Qiao!"

He shouted out, but the next moment, Murong Fu's eyes turned, and a suction force suddenly appeared from Qiao Feng's body. Then, the man flew uncontrollably toward the clone, and then struck the man with a Dragon Subduing Palm!
Before he could even react, his sternum shattered, he was sent flying backward and crashed to the ground, staring at his clone in disbelief.

"Chief Qiao... what are you doing? I... I even treated you to a meal..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Murong Fu's clone landed directly, stepping on his neck with one foot. A ferocious smile appeared on his face, and a raging dragon roared around him, with ferocious snakes shooting out in all directions!
The surrounding martial arts heroes immediately stood up, and one of the Beggar Clan branch elders couldn't help but stand up as well. "Chief Qiao, what are you doing! Even if he was wrong, you shouldn't kill someone at the banquet!"

However, the moment he finished speaking, Li Ke, who was actually Murong Fu in disguise, suddenly thrust a glowing sword into his throat, leaving him staring in disbelief at Murong Fu in front of him, because he had clearly not seen anything at all!

Murong Fu couldn't help but reveal a ferocious smile. Previously, his illusion magic could only interfere with people's attacks and make it difficult to see their movements. It was actually best used by Murong Guang. But now, he could make people completely unable to see him, and even completely transform into another person!

The power to manipulate the five senses has also been enhanced!
"Where did you come from, you madman!"

The disciple of the Beggars' Sect branch elder roared and charged towards Murong Fu, only to be glared at by Murong Fu. He was sent flying backward by an invisible repulsive force, crashing through a wall. Behind him, through the eyes of his clone, he clearly saw countless martial arts figures staring in astonishment. He also saw that the Li Ke he was playing had lost his noble and gentle demeanor, replaced by a ferocious and unrestrained air.

He didn't care, because the power of the Seven Star Eyes made him burst into uncontrollable laughter.

"Hahahahahaha!!!"

Covering his eyes, Murong Fu almost uncontrollably felt the urge to use the power of the Star Shift!

So the next moment, the phantom of stars appeared on Murong Fu's body. The You brothers, who had just rushed over with their weapons, didn't even have time to see what the starlight was before they were swept away by a huge arm and sent flying. Then they were sent flying by Murong Fu's clone using the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms!
Then, the clone grabbed the necks of the You brothers and spoke in a sinister tone.

"Where have you kept your money?!"

The two You brothers coughed up blood, but stared intently at the face of Qiao Feng, played by Murong Fu, unable to utter a single word. At that very moment, their son, You Tanzhi, roared and charged forward.

"Qiao Feng, you scoundrel! Don't even think about hurting my father!"

He didn't care about the clash of forces between the two sides, so the next moment he was kicked away by Murong Fu's clone. Although You Tanzhi was spitting blood and his bones were broken, he looked at Qiao Feng in disbelief.

"Why did you do this! Qiao Feng! Aren't you a great hero! A great valiant man?!"

But Murong Fu, who was controlling the clone, only revealed a strange smile.

"It was just to test my strength. If you want to hold a grudge, hold it against yourself for not having eyes like mine!"

He almost instinctively showed off his new eyes, then frowned when he saw that the You brothers had been crushed to death, because he hadn't managed to find out which bank had stored their treasure and money.

However, he felt it wasn't a big problem. He had X-ray vision and could find it easily. Even if he couldn't find it, he could just impersonate Qiao Feng and Li Ke and rob the bank again.

The most important thing now is to test the limits of his eyes!

For example, the limits of illusion!
The next moment, the wives of the two heroes rushed out in anger, but with just a glare, the Flame Blade pierced through their bodies and set them ablaze!

"Father! Mother!"

You Tanzhi rushed over and hugged his mother's burning body, refusing to let go even though his face was burned.

Murong Fu, on the other hand, felt somewhat annoyed because his mother had given birth to an illegitimate sister who had defiled the Murong family's bloodline, so he couldn't help but want to torment her a little more.

"Since you're so reluctant to part with your parents, I'll let you see them a few more times."

Upon hearing this, You Tanzhi stared in disbelief into the eyes of Murong Fu's clone. The stars twinkling in those eyes filled him with disbelief, but the next moment, everything he saw and experienced returned to its previous state.

It was still the same lively scene of his coming-of-age ceremony, with his father and uncle looking at him proudly, followed by his mother and aunt... and those martial arts figures who congratulated him.

Everything was so beautiful that he thought he was just hallucinating. Then, the next moment, he saw 'Li Ke' and 'Qiao Feng' with starlight in their eyes rushing in and wreaking havoc!
"what!!!"

He clutched his head and screamed in agony, his mind replaying everything that had happened before, the tragic deaths of his parents, uncle, and aunt.

He stumbled and fell to the ground, then struggled incessantly.

Looking at everything he had done, and at the martial arts practitioners screaming in agony under the Dragon Subduing Palm, Murong Fu felt that he had reached the pinnacle of his life. So he couldn't help but cover his forehead once again and laugh wildly at his own power.

"Hmph, under the power of the Seven Star Eye, you are all truly trash! Hate your destiny of not possessing the Seven Star Eye!"

Juxian Manor was engulfed in carnage, but Murong Fu did not forget what he had to do. So he did not kill You Tanzhi, who was tormented by hallucinations, nor did he kill those martial arts practitioners who were of low skill and had no chance of hearing his previous words. He did this so that these people would spread the story of Li Ke and Qiao Feng.

But when he turned to look at You Tanzhi, intending to revise what he had heard, he saw that You Tanzhi had stopped breathing and his heart had stopped beating due to excessive grief. This made Murong Fu very unhappy, and he couldn't help but frown.

"What a useless piece of trash!"

After saying this, Murong Fu went to the storeroom of Juxian Manor to find money he could take with him, leaving only the clone who was impersonating Qiao Feng to continue wreaking havoc in Juxian Manor and slaughtering all kinds of martial arts figures.

However, just as Murong Fu had killed most of the people and made most of them see Qiao Feng carrying the silver out the door, and everyone was fleeing in panic, You Tanzhi's finger suddenly twitched!
Yes, although You Tanzhi was disfigured and beaten to the point of near death before, he is still alive!

"I want revenge...I want...to live..."

So, without anyone knowing, You Tanzhi staggered out of Juxianzhuang, dragging the corpses of his parents, uncle, and aunt.

But he eventually reached his limit, and collapsed halfway through digging the grave. Just as he was about to die, a Tibetan monk carrying Kumārajīva, who was wrapped up like a mummy, came to him.

The last two sentences You Tanzhi heard were their conversation.

"Breaking news, it's fate that we met. Please save this filial child."

"But Master, if this person wants to survive, he must become a poisoner!"

So, You Tanzhi extended his hand.

"I...will..."

He hasn't avenged his great grudge, how can he die?! So even though the Poison Man doesn't sound like a good person, as long as he can live and have a chance to take revenge, he's willing to become anything!

But after he said that, he fainted!

Li Ke was naturally unaware that he had been framed because of Murong Bo and Murong Fu, but even if he had known, it wouldn't have mattered, because Murong Fu had left too many flaws, and it was impossible to pin the blame on him.

But the most crucial point is that if he were the one who did it, even if the matter were reported to the emperor, he would only receive a warning like, "How could you be so careless? Why didn't you silence him?" And the biggest problem is that Li Ke is truly not short of money; the silver notes he carries with him are enough to buy ten Juxian Manors!
Murong Fu and Murong Bo.

They truly don't understand the powerful and wealthy!
But at this moment, Li Ke, unaware of the situation, arrived at Xingzilin and met Qiao Feng. However, before Qiao Feng could even greet him, Xiao Yuanshan grabbed his hand.

"Son! Don't you recognize me? I'm your father!"

Upon hearing such rude words, Qiao Feng instinctively wanted to slap him, but he didn't care because of the Beggar Clan leader and Xiao Yuanshan's aged face. However, his underlings kicked Xiao Yuanshan to the ground and roared.

"Who are you calling son?!"
