How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?!

In this way, day by day passed.

The two genuinely seemed like a couple.

Swinging at the mountain top, rowing a small boat on the sea, strolling under the willow shade, climbing mountains for a distant view.

Except for not kissing too passionately, everything was so perfect.

However, Lin Xiaosu still sensitively noticed that Chang Ye's complexion was growing increasingly off.

On the fifth day.

The third pleasant interaction between the two was completed.

Chang Ye's face was as pale as paper in the darkness.

"What's wrong with you?" Lin Xiaosu gently touched her forehead.

"Nothing, the gene rejection day is near!" Chang Ye replied.

"You scared me, so it's this year's gene rejection day that's coming!" Lin Xiaosu said, "When exactly?"

"Tomorrow!"

"I'll stay with you!"

"No!" Chang Ye said, "My rejection day, lasts especially long, sometimes several months, you don't have to stay with me, tomorrow, you should go home."

"Alright then."

Lin Xiaosu fell asleep.

What he didn't know was that Chang Ye didn't sleep that night.

She quietly lay in his arms, staring at his face without blinking, occasionally brushing her lips against his, finding it hard to let go.

On the morning of the next day, it was Lin Xiaosu's sixth day at Base 101.

When he woke up, Chang Ye was not in the room.

On the bedside was a piece of paper, with a line of elegant handwriting: "I've gone into the rejection room, my love, love you!"

The swing set outside was still in the wind.

In the small garden outside, the wind occasionally carried a hint of withered yellow.

This is what Chief Long called chrysanthemum.

Under the swing set, there was a bowl, the last breakfast that Chang Ye prepared for him.

Lin Xiaosu finished this breakfast and went down the slope.

Everything was so harmonious, yet, by the seaside ahead, a figure slowly turned around, startling Lin Xiaosu.

Xinyue!

Xinyue wasn't unusual at 101.

What was unusual was that she hadn't disturbed him for six days.

"Hi, Xinyue! Long time no see!" Lin Xiaosu raised his hand, greeting her warmly.

In Xinyue's eyes, two tears suddenly welled up, sliding down her cheeks.

The smile on Lin Xiaosu's face suddenly vanished: "What's wrong?"

Xinyue's tears flowed more...

"What on earth happened? What's wrong?" Lin Xiaosu was shocked.

Was Xinyue someone who would cry?

No!

She never was!

When encountering injustice, she dared to face anyone, she would rather the world suffer grievances than herself.

Her tears were more surprising than her blood.

Xinyue took a deep breath: "She's going to die!"

"Who?"

"The one who was with you for the past six days and nights!" Xinyue said, "She didn't want me to tell you, but I must let you know, she's going to be gone! She'll never, ever come back, she..."

"What?" Lin Xiaosu was visibly shaken.

Chang Ye, going to be gone!

How could it be?

How could this happen?

She... she just had a gene rejection!

Every Genetic Person worldwide goes through a gene rejection once a year, she herself had experienced it more than ten times!

"She's different from ordinary people!" Xinyue sobbed, "Take a look at her genetic sequence and you'll understand..."

"Show me!" Lin Xiaosu's expression was extremely serious.

Xinyue took out the Dragon Eye, and a genetic sequence image was transmitted into Lin Xiaosu's Dragon Eye...

Lin Xiaosu trembled lightly all over...

His understanding of genes was not below those of conventional genetic scientists.

At a glance, he saw Chang Ye's uniqueness.

Chang Ye's initial genetic code was very peculiar...

She was based on poison.

If this poison didn't change, she could maintain this dynamic balance for a long time.

However, her poison had been evolving all along.

There's a critical value for evolving poison.

Breaking this critical value, the poison would exceed what her body could endure.

What would happen?

The various organs constituting the body would all turn into a pool of poisonous liquid.

"Blue Demon!" Lin Xiaosu uttered two words solemnly.

Dragon Eye was activated, connecting to Blue Demon.

However, it didn't connect.

At the corner of the wall ahead, someone slowly turned around, still a stranger at first glance, but once the face was fully revealed, it was none other than Blue Demon.

With a movement of her foot, Blue Demon appeared in front of him, with a thick sadness on her face.

"Actually, I also promised her not to tell you the truth, but... I can't get over the hurdle in my heart, I don't dare to imagine what kind of look you would have when you learned the truth in the future, so, I would rather betray the sisterhood agreement between me and her," Blue Demon said.

"Qianlong... has given up, hasn't he?" Lin Xiaosu's voice was very dry.

"Chief Long doesn't want to give up, none of us wants to give up!" Blue Demon said, "But... modern technology has given up on her!"

Chang Ye was their sister, if there was even a tiny bit of possible solution, how could it have come to this?

Qianlong is the most top-tier institution, gathering the best geneticists, the most advanced gene technology, top-notch medical equipment, and the highest-caliber talents...

However, all of this only confirms one thing: even the King of Hell cannot save those destined to die!

The uniqueness of Chang Ye lies in her existence through poison.

Her essence is poison.

Poison is the blood flowing through her veins, her source of power, the foundation of her life.

After her poison evolved, her body could no longer bear it.

What can be done?

Typically, it would suffice to detoxify a poisoned person.

But for her, it's impossible!

Even if it were possible, it's still impossible!

Why?

Because detoxifying her is equivalent to removing the foundation of her life, she would only die faster.

"I'm going to check on her!"

In the dedicated laboratory, Lin Xiaosu could see Chang Ye.

Chang Ye couldn't see him.

She was seriously inserting needles all over her body, doing it herself.

Her expression was very calm.

As if she were conducting an experiment she had done countless times in her life.

Perhaps it's not "as if," but indeed "is"!

Her final experiment was using herself as the test subject, leaving the most toxic experimental data for this world. From then on, she would no longer be a being but a collection of data...

Lin Xiaosu quietly watched her, his eyes full of crystal clarity...

In his ear, Blue Demon's voice came: "She once said she was born in an orphanage, thinking she was just a soon-to-wilt flower in this world. However, after a rainstorm, an umbrella rose over her head, and an old man took her to Qianlong. In Qianlong, she met her godfather, who gave her a father's love; she encountered us, who gave her sisterly affection; she met you, and tasted the flavor of love, showcased her worth in the Strange Realm, and now, returning, she has no regrets."

Though these words came lightly, her tears too dropped onto the floor.

"She may truly have no regrets, but... I do!" Lin Xiaosu said, "I don't allow this regret to exist, I absolutely do not allow it!"

His voice was hoarse and low.

As soon as his voice fell, Lin Xiaosu was gone.

The next moment, he appeared in the files room of Base 101.

In the file room, he opened the electronic screen, and knowledge of medicine and genetics flashed by frantically...

For a whole day and night, he lay in the file room, motionless...

The next day, he appeared in another file room, where various forbidden laws flashed by frantically...

On the third day, Blue Demon appeared before him, Lin Xiaosu's eyes already bloodshot, and for the first time in his life, he saw fine stubble on his chin.

His hair was also a disheveled mess.

"You haven't eaten a grain of rice or drunk water for three days!" Blue Demon said.

"Modern medicine, genetic technology, the Cultivation Path, Gu Technique, and even folk remedies, I couldn't find an answer... Tell me, what have I missed?" Lin Xiaosu stared at Blue Demon, with a trace of madness in his eyes.

In these three days, he sorted out all the ways he could think of for Chang Ye's condition.

Modern technology, abandoned.

Gene technology, abandoned.

He even thought about Gu Technique, but it had no effect.

The detoxification method he was originally best at, the Rejuvenation Secret Technique, also lost its effectiveness.

Because Chang Ye's situation is so unique, the question of whether her poison could be detoxified is one aspect, the most difficult part is this: it must not be detoxified! She still possesses a little Life Fire, given by the poison, detoxifying her would mean extracting her life, causing her to die faster.

And if not detoxified, one can only watch her Life Fire slowly extinguish.

She is a paradox of existence.

She is the embodiment of contradictions.

Blue Demon, facing his expectant gaze, gently shook her head, her eyes filled with sadness and helplessness.

"Senior Sister, you go out first. I'll think again, there's got to be a way, there must be!" Lin Xiaosu gently waved his hand...

Blue Demon slowly walked out of the reading room, with a gentle gesture of her hand, a robotic beauty carried a tray with food and water into the reading room, but Lin Xiaosu, with his eyes closed in contemplation, did not react at all.

Blue Demon, looking through the glass window, felt only sorrow at heart.

Could I still be wrong?

Should I not have told him about this?

It was a futile matter from the start, why must I subject him to such painful torment?

Suddenly, Lin Xiaosu raised his hand and made a phone call...

In Luoba State, under the Alpine Mountains.

A small wooden cabin stood quietly in the autumn breeze.

Saintess Qian Ling reclined in a hanging chair, gently swaying with its motion.

Her heart seemed to wander leisurely, slightly lost in this peace.

As a person of Ancient Times, she doesn't belong to this world.

Not due to inability to integrate, but inherent resistance.

The mountains and rivers below are not her homeland.

The people below are not her kin.

She is separated from them not by the distance from the mountain waist to its base, but by countless centuries...

Perhaps the only thing that can give her a sense of belonging is Daxia.

Because of its cultural attributes.

Yes, cultural attributes, which perhaps is the deepest insight she has had after assimilating with Catherine's modern sensibility.

Cultural attributes are extensive, hazy, omnipresent...

If the land of Daxia gave her a sense of belonging, there is also a person she cannot forget.

A small detective from Fengcheng, Lin Xiaosu.

She doesn't know if it's because of the two times True Qi stirred her most sensitive spot, letting her experience both shyness and surprise, or because that drop of Heavenly Star Tears from him was assimilated by her, creating some connection.

This little rascal promised to come, when is he coming?

He said, at least three months, at most half a year.

It's been nearly five months since then, in these five months, he has thrived in his world; she knows well about his string of achievements even from five thousand kilometers away, surely his cultivation has progressed, right? How many Heavenly Star Tears has he produced again? When they meet next, will he really give them to her?

Every star crossing the sky will eventually meet another star.

He, being the first person she met upon revealing herself, might just be the star she encounters while wandering the heavens?
