Chapter 62: Spatial teleportation is used for chasing and playing around.
The next day, Shichen got up, hunched over, and listlessly left his room.
After a quick wash, Nangong Nayue dressed and came out of the room.
"What's wrong? Didn't you sleep well last night?" Nangong Nayue asked, puzzled, when she saw him like this.
"Hmm...more or less." Shi Chen nodded weakly.
"Having a nightmare?"
"Not to the extent that..."
"What could be the reason? It couldn't be that you had a wet dream, could it? Even dreams like that shouldn't be like this."
"How could that be!" Shichen retorted loudly, then asked in confusion, "Then Yue-chan, how do you know that men don't have dreams like mine?"
"You just said it yourself." Nangong Nayue said expressionlessly.
"..."
"Tell me, what's going on?"
"Sigh, I might... still be a pseudo-True Ancestor." Shi Chen sighed and replied honestly.
"What do you mean?" Nangong Nayue didn't understand.
"The familiar I devoured from the Fourth Progenitor yesterday is gone..."
Last night, besides learning that he was also going to awaken his familiar by consuming blood, Shi Chen also learned that the familiars he devoured had turned into his magic power.
Familiars are aggregates of magic power, so it's normal for them to be devoured and converted into magic power, but this conversion happens without their knowledge.
The Fourth Progenitor's familiars could not become his familiars at all, and could not even survive in his body, so they were directly converted into magic power.
The magical power transformed from familiars is immense, but it's temporarily useless to Shichen. He needs a means of attack now, and he needs familiars as his weapons.
He had originally thought he could use his familiar, the Demoness Azure Ice, to be arrogant, but it was all for naught.
Isn't this no different from before?
Vlame hadn't taught him any offensive magic yet; after all, he didn't even have any magic power at that time, so there was no need to teach him everything at once.
"You also devoured a familiar from the fourth kind?" Nangong Nayue asked in surprise.
"Yes, the original soul kept a familiar beast for itself."
"The original soul?" Nangong Nayue looked at him in confusion.
"The Fourth True Ancestor was once divided into twelve parts and sealed, which are twelve original bodies. Her twelve familiars were also sealed in each original body. The original bodies all have self-awareness, and it is no exaggeration to say that they are the blood followers of the Fourth True Ancestor. Any one of them could become the Fourth True Ancestor, as long as it devours the other original bodies," Shi Chen explained.
"So, the Fourth True Ancestor wasn't completely defeated?" Nangong Nayue realized.
“That’s true.” Shi Chen nodded. “Each of the Fourth Ancestor’s familiars is quite powerful and has different terrifying abilities. Even if one is missing, it’s not a big deal.”
“So that means…” Nangong Nayue’s expression turned serious.
"Yes, the Feast of Flames will still begin as scheduled. At that time, it will depend on which qualified person has more physical bodies, and they will have a chance to awaken the new Fourth True Ancestor."
"Isn't this a case of not solving any problems? The original body probably doesn't understand anything, right? Doesn't this just make things more complicated?" Nangong Nayue couldn't help but sigh.
The so-called qualified participants are those who attend this banquet, and the condition is to possess a physical body. Needless to say, anyone who can obtain a physical body must have great ambitions.
Helping the Fourth True Ancestor awaken and gain the merit of following the dragon—whatever the purpose, it certainly wouldn't be simple.
Immortal?
That was just the initial and basic goal: to become an immortal being. Naturally, a greater ambition followed.
True Ancestors are beings qualified to become regional overlords or emperors. Those who possess the Fourth True Ancestor cannot possibly be uninterested in becoming emperors.
In a world where power reigns supreme, status is exceptionally alluring, and one might even try to devour the Fourth Progenitor.
Nangong Nayue immediately understood the situation.
"Don't worry," Shi Chen patted his chest reassuringly. "With me here, there won't be any problems."
“Don’t you even have a familiar?” Nangong Nayue glanced at him.
"That's just because the Fourth Ancestor's familiar is gone. My own familiar is just as strong," Shichen said without any basis.
"And what about your familiar?"
"Uh... they're still dormant. Do we need to offer a sacrifice to awaken them?"
"How to do it?"
"..." Shi Chen pursed his lips and silently looked at Nangong Nayue, his gaze involuntarily drifting to her fair neck.
"Why are you looking at me?" Nangong Nayue asked curiously.
“I need to drink blood…” Teacher Shichen said.
“Blood sucking…” Nangong Nayue immediately took a step back, covered her neck, and stared at him warily.
"Natsuki-chan... are you serious about backing down like this?" Shichen's lips twitched.
"Hmph! What else? Wait for you to suck my blood?"
Nangong Nayue understood the urge to drink blood from vampires, which meant she was sexually attracted to them.
"I'm innocent! I'm not that casual."
"I hope so... and let me make it clear beforehand, sucking my blood won't do you any good."
"Of course I know."
"Wait, you're not going to attack Xia Yin, are you?" Nangong Nayue narrowed her eyes, staring at him dangerously.
"How could that be? How old is Xia Yin? Do you think I'm that kind of person?"
"Who knows if you're that kind of person?" Nangong Nayue pouted.
"...Where is the most basic trust between people? Yue-chan, you've hurt me so much." Shichen said, feeling wronged.
"Hmph! It's all because you suddenly said you wanted to drink blood, and you're only interested in little girls." Nangong Nayue crossed her arms, unmoved.
"When did I ever say I was interested in little girls? I'm interested in you, Natsuki-chan."
"If you're interested in me like this, what's the difference between you and being interested in little girls?" Faced with Shi Chen's sudden confession, Nangong Nayue's expression remained calm: "Besides, aren't you only around little girls? That girl named Lan Yu Qian Cong, and Xia Yin."
“Isn’t Ms. Sasa an adult woman?” Shichen couldn’t help but retort.
"What do you mean?" Nangong Nayue's eyes turned cold: "You want to make a move against that stupid dog?"
"No, no, that's impossible," Shi Chen quickly waved his hand in denial.
"Hmph, that's for the best." Nangong Nayue snorted coldly.
"Sigh, Yue-chan, can't you trust me at all?" Shichen sighed helplessly.
"That depends on your performance... So what are you planning to do? Go around looking for people to prey on women?" Nangong Nayue asked, changing the subject.
"That's ridiculous!" Shichen shouted, "I don't plan to awaken my familiar for now."
"What about the Fourth True Ancestor?"
"Don't worry, we can't find all the original bodies in a short time. It will probably take a year or two."
"Really? You know quite a lot," Nangong Nayue said calmly.
"Am I amazing?" Shi Chen said with a smug smile.
“…” Nangong Nayue rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.
"In short, we can live a stable life for a while."
"You really won't hurt a little girl?" Nangong Nayue couldn't help but ask again.
"Then Yue-chan... if you keep doing this, I'm going to have to get rough with you." Shi Chen looked at her seriously.
"What? What do you want? I don't think you can do it at all." Nangong Nayue was not afraid.
"Is this what you said?"
"Come if you can."
"it is good!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Chen suddenly reached out and touched Nangong Nayue's head.
Nangong Nayue shook her head helplessly and disappeared.
"That's all you're good at?"
A voice came from behind him. Without saying a word, Shi Chen turned around and continued to pat her head.
Swish!
Nangong Nayue disappeared again.
Shi Chen also used spatial magic to sense spatial fluctuations and chase after her.
The two darted around the living room, chasing and playing like children.
"Natsuki-chan, don't run away!"
"Why wouldn't you run? Just so I could pat your head? I really don't know what's so great about patting your head."
"You do not understand."
"I don't need to understand."
"You wait, I'll definitely catch up with you!"
"You're someone I taught, you're still a long way from catching up with me."
"But I have more magic power than you. Once you run out, let's see what you do! Hmph~ Then you'll be left to do whatever I want with."
"Are you stupid? It's right here in this room, how much could it possibly consume? It'll last for days."
"..."
