From picking up corpses to becoming a true god of America

Ye Xiao remembered a wise man once saying something like that.

Humans have only three basic desires: the desire to eat, the desire to sleep, and the desire to see stars.

Now that I've had enough sleep and am satisfied, my stomach naturally starts rumbling.

Ye Xiao lazily changed his clothes and planned to fry some bacon and eggs for himself for breakfast.

But as soon as he stepped out the door, he saw the woman sitting blankly in the living room and was almost startled.

Last night was so intense that he completely forgot he had brought Beryl back with him.

"..."

Beryl looked very tired, as if she hadn't slept well last night, and there was still a faint sadness on her face.

They looked over with a complicated and helpless gaze.

"Are you still thinking about your brother?"

"..."

Beryl's expression changed slightly. After a moment of silence, she nodded slightly.

She's conflicted right now.

I am grateful to Ye Xiao for saving me last night.

But at the same time, he was still deeply troubled by the death of his brother Thomas.

After escaping the camp, Beryl began to feel lost.

Her brother wanted her to live.

But she didn't understand what the point of her survival was.

I have no idea how else I can survive besides that kind of thing.

Fate was like a whirlpool, constantly pulling her into the abyss.

Feeling lost about reality and grieving her brother's passing, Beryl couldn't help but think about it.

If I died there, would I not feel so bad?

"The dead cannot be brought back to life."

Ye Xiao went to the refrigerator, poured himself a glass of orange juice, and took out eggs and bacon as well.

"Your brother was seriously injured at the time, and even if he had escaped, he wouldn't have survived."

"Then why did you rescue me?"

Beryl looked up blankly: "Is there any point in someone like me continuing to live?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Xiao pursed his lips, his expression complex.

Beryl's question was very pointed.

The people in that camp were beyond redemption.

Even if we rescue them from this drug den.

Under the ruthless system of the American continent, they will eventually be unable to make a living and will spontaneously gather together to form a new drug den.

They have no chance of turning things around.

"Because this was your brother's last request, I granted it."

Ye Xiao, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, tossed the eggs and bacon into the hot pan.

Soon, a simple and rustic fragrance filled the living room.

No matter what, I will let you live.

"Sir, you must be joking."

Beryl trembled as she hugged her arms, her face filled with helplessness.

"Do you know my parents? They were damn drug addicts, and I was born with an original sin that I can't break."

"I've never been to school, and I have no other skills besides selling myself."

"How could someone as filthy as me survive if I left that place?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow and suddenly felt somewhat tempted.

Experience told him that Beryl's self-doubt and her current mental lapse were precisely when she was at her weakest and most helpless.

If all goes well, Ye Xiao will gain his first most loyal and obedient believer.

Anyone who has been saved from hell by a miracle will become extremely devout.

Even if their object of faith is meatball spaghetti.

"Don't you hate the people who made you this way? Don't you hate the people who killed your brother?"

Ye Xiao calmly controlled the frying pan, trying to fry a perfect one-sided fried egg.

"What good is hatred, sir?"

"I can't escape, I can't even survive on my own."

As long as you still harbor hatred, that's fine.

There are many people in America who have become numb.

Compared to them, the young Beryl was more clear-headed.

"So, do you want to resist?"

Suddenly, Ye Xiao's deep, husky voice startled Beryl.

Suddenly, I recalled the miraculous scene I witnessed last night.

The sound now is almost exactly the same as it was back then!

She looked up in surprise, only to see Ye Xiao with a slight smile on his lips, placing two plates of bacon and eggs on the dining table.

"You, you could be...?"

Beryl's voice trembled slightly, her eyes flashing with intense fear and disbelief.

I know you might not quite believe me.

"And I don't have the ability to save everyone."

Ye Xiao sat down slowly and deliberately opposite Beryl, as elegant as a gentleman from the British Empire.

"But what if I invited you to join me in completely wiping out the people who killed your brother?"

"!"

Beryl suddenly felt a little suffocated.

Like a sharp sword, the sunlight pierced through the thick fog, carving a path through the muddy swamp.

Beryl, who has been rescued from hell, suddenly discovers that there is another possibility in her life.

After realizing this, Beryl found herself increasingly unable to control her emotions.

The confusion and sadness slowly turned into hatred.

"Sir, can I... really do it?"

"Of course, as long as you believe, my power will always be with you."

Ye Xiao stretched out his hand, revealing a very charlatan-like smile.

During his time in the community, he basically wrote down all of the imam's words and actions.

Since we're going to make a big fuss about this, we definitely need to win over some people first.

At this moment, Beryl, who is all alone and helpless, is the best candidate.

After Ye Xiao's actions...

In Beryl's eyes, he was like a savior, extending a loving hand to her, who was covered in filth.

Trembling with unease, Beryl slowly reached out her hand and fearfully touched Ye Xiao's fingers.

In just a moment, she felt a warm current, like an electric shock, rushing into her body through her fingers.

The discomfort caused by drug dependence was almost instantly cleared up, her pale face regained some vitality, and her tired body regained some strength.

Beryl suddenly felt her mind clear, no longer drowsy or restless. She felt refreshed like never before.

Is this the legendary miracle?

Beryl's gaze grew clearer, more devout, and even tinged with a hint of fanaticism.

Ye Xiao felt that even if he asked her to jump out of the window right now, Beryl would not hesitate.

Moreover, Ye Xiao was surprised to discover that...

Under Beryl's adoration, his sanity level actually increased significantly.

A simple white seed that doesn't add much to attributes [Strong] was exchanged for Beryl's absolute loyalty.

No wonder so many people in the Middle Eastern community believe in imams.

As expected, Commissioners Smith and his ilk were just too greedy.

So much so that in America, even outdated feudal theocracy has been revitalized.

Unfortunately, Ye Xiao didn't have any seeds with poison resistance.

The only way to help Beryl completely break free from drug addiction is probably to improve her physical condition.

"Sir, no, esteemed..."

Beryl opened her mouth in excitement, but the knowledge of burning books and burying scholars alive in her mind made her completely at a loss for words to express her feelings at this moment, and she didn't even know how to address Ye Xiao.

"Just call me sir, and have some breakfast first."

"I'll take you out to run some errands later."

Ye Xiao's amiable smile was as warm as the sun in Beryl's eyes.
