Romance Game: Embrace of the Inhuman

Chapter 210 Establishing Rules


Having fully experienced a segment of Zhang Juan's memories from a first-person perspective, Lin Qianxuan felt a heavy sense of oppression in his heart.

What was once a fairly happy life took a sharp turn as the dreamlike illusions shattered, and the parents who once brought hope and beauty turned out to be demons wanting his life.

Hurriedly traversing to the Otherworld, he found some warmth at the bottom layer of society, which was suddenly lost again because of fate's cruel twist.

Forced to transform, forced to take up a weapon with hands that had never killed any life…

"What's the matter? Why the sudden grim face?" Zhang Juan asked.

"I just feel, Sister Juan, you had a really tough time before." Lin Qianxuan softly replied.

"It's all in the past now. Being able to see you again makes me very happy." Zhang Juan answered.

She had thought she would die here in this lifetime, but now, being able to see the boy she was preoccupied with at the end of her life, made her very happy.

Sadly, he had changed a lot, becoming slick and glib, shameless, gained immense strength, and decisive in killing. Those five people, he killed them with a wave of his hand, without a second glance, just like squashing five bugs—more ruthless than she was back then.

But at least he still truly cared about her, and that was enough.

"I'll take you somewhere." Lin Qianxuan said.

"Where?" Zhang Juan asked with confusion.

She didn't understand, Lin Qianxuan, having just arrived, what possible place could he take her?

However, in her confusion, Lin Qianxuan reached out and swiped in the void, causing a Space Gate formed by True Flame to appear.

On the other side of the gate was a land full of flowers.

Inside were familiar wild chrysanthemums.

Just like that small hillside covered with wild chrysanthemums in the past.

"Go in."

Lin Qianxuan pushed Zhang Juan's back, sending her into the Qiankun Space, and entered himself.

The Teleportation Gate then disappeared, leaving emptiness.

Of course, this didn't mean Lin Qianxuan and Zhang Juan truly disappeared.

The Qiankun Space still existed within this space, essentially as a subspace.

Within the sea of flowers, Zhang Juan felt her whole body relax.

The two sat shoulder to shoulder, chatting a bit about the past.

"When did you plant these?" Zhang Juan asked.

"Originally wanted to say they were planted long ago, but actually only prepared them recently knowing I might see you, intending to win you over." Lin Qianxuan said.

"Why?" Zhang Juan asked, puzzled.

She didn't understand why, even in her current state, Lin Qianxuan was still putting forth such effort for her.

"Because it's you." Lin Qianxuan smiled and said: "In your heart, I am very special, but in my heart, you are also very special."

"I don't believe it." Zhang Juan said.

"What would make you believe?" Lin Qianxuan asked.

"Kiss me, then I'll believe it." Zhang Juan looked at Lin Qianxuan and said.

She was certain that as long as Lin Qianxuan had human aesthetic senses, he wouldn't be able to do it.

But unexpectedly, the moment she said it, Lin Qianxuan kissed her.

Zhang Juan's eyes widened. How could he bring himself to do it?!

At the same time, she felt a bit confused, not knowing how to react.

A moment later, Lin Qianxuan and Zhang Juan separated, and their expressions were quite subtle.

It felt a bit like kissing metal, and a bit like kissing stone, plus her tongue had barbs, didn't it?

"Do you believe now?" Lin Qianxuan asked.

"Did you suppress your disgust and wronged yourself just to satisfy me?"

Zhang Juan hung her head, a little at a loss.

She didn't want Lin Qianxuan to go too far just for her.

Having such a ring on her finger made her already very satisfied.

"Originally planned to give it to you later, but since you've said such things, I'll have to take it out now." Lin Qianxuan reached out, took out an Inheritance Divine Power Atlas, and handed it to Zhang Juan: "Here, your present."

"What is it?" Zhang Juan unfolded the scroll, gazing at the mysterious black-and-white picture, her eyes a bit bewildered.

"A Divine Power that solves Dao Principle conflicts, carrying a one-time inheritance. Just by probing it with your spirit, you can directly comprehend the Divine Power to the introductory level." Lin Qianxuan said.

"Dao Principle conflicts?" Zhang Juan was momentarily confused, but soon realized and said: "You know about the gene conflict of superpowers within me too? What divination method did you use?"

"Sister Juan, don't worry about that." Lin Qianxuan said: "Give it a try, if it doesn't work, I'll think of another way."

Zhang Juan hesitated for a moment, then extended her spirit beyond her body and made contact with the scroll.

In the next instant, she felt herself being taken to a black-and-white world of distinct yin and yang.

Here, black and white gas intermingled, going through numerous transformations, ultimately becoming one.

In the boundless void, related insights were infused into Zhang Juan's consciousness as if poured into her, allowing her to understand a Divine Power called [Primordial True Intent].

This was a Divine Power that harmonized yin and yang, balancing Dao Principles.

Her body instinctively activated the Divine Power, making the conflicting superpowers within her merge like black and white gases. Under the harmony of Primordial True Intent, they gradually unified, alleviating the uncontrolled conflict from before.

The various superpowers were temporarily controlled, no longer clashing as fiercely as before.

This meant that she would no longer die from superpower conflicts.

Simultaneously, her appearance gradually returned to its original form.

Long black hair, oval face with willow eyebrows, graceful figure... From a human aesthetic standpoint, she was flawless.

When Zhang Juan opened her eyes and saw Lin Qianxuan's smiling face, her heart was slightly moved.

"That's something very precious, isn't it?" Zhang Juan asked.

"Why talk about that?" Lin Qianxuan slightly shook his head and suggested: "Your hair's all messed up, let me tie it for you."

With that, he took out a hair tie and comb, grooming Zhang Juan's long hair as he did in the past.

During this process, Zhang Juan obediently remained still, feeling the Misty Qi on her, connecting more deeply with Lin Qianxuan.

Soon, Lin Qianxuan finished everything and handed a mirror to Zhang Juan.

Zhang Juan took a glance at her reflection, tilted her head, and saw the high ponytail Lin Qianxuan had tied for her.

The technique and location were exactly the same as she had taught him back then.

"You're cheating like this." Tears of brilliance welled up in Zhang Juan's eyes.

Zhang Juan had thought they were going to part with life and death, yet after Lin Qianxuan's series of moves, she was now touched and confused.

Yet her heart was already wavering; she felt that even knowing the present Lin Qianxuan was a downright scoundrel, she couldn't refuse him.

Before Lin Qianxuan could say anything, Zhang Juan hugged him fiercely and bit down on his lips.

He was speechless; why was it always like this?

In every simulation plot, at this juncture, Zhang Juan would always take the initiative to attack.

Helplessly, Lin Qianxuan could only respond to Zhang Juan's passion.

Meanwhile, the bluish Misty Qi also condensed into a Sound Talisman.

The function of this Sound Talisman was to give him more choices.

In evolution, there was now a third optional superpower.

He had no time to think deeply, as he entered another memory again.

.....

.....

Run, run like mad.

She knew that if caught, the Feixing Gang people would surely kill her.

To survive with a bunch of low-level scavengers, Zhang Juan circumvented the local gang and secretly helped some low-level prostitutes bring in clients.

Such things were not permitted here, as the Feixing Gang dominated everything, even taking a cut from selling trash.

The upper class exploits the lower class, and the lower class exploits those below them in turn.

Even among wanderers, there were still levels.

Zhang Juan was fleeing through the familiar alleys, hoping to delay until she could traverse back to Earth.

Then she could leave directly.

Suddenly, two figures appeared in front of her.

She turned to change course, but there were also two figures behind her.

"Bang~!"

The leading man kicked out of nowhere, and Zhang Juan felt a pain in her abdomen, her body flying and rolling on the ground twice.

She gritted her teeth and tried to get up, but the pain in her body curled her up, making it impossible.

"Recently, our brothel business has been poor, and I wondered why. Turns out it's you, little girl, taking people behind our backs, stealing our business, and competing with our Feixing Gang. You've got some nerve!!" The man looked at Zhang Juan with disdain.

Zhang Juan gritted her teeth, her eyes full of resentment as she looked at the man.

"You dare look at me like that?"

The man stepped forward, kicking her abdomen repeatedly.

"Pfft~!"

Zhang Juan only felt a severe pain in her entrails, and as she opened her mouth, vomit mixed with blood and digestive juices spilled out.

Seeing this filth, the man finally stopped.

"Take her away, to the Gold Transformation Pool. Melt her in front of those wretches, and let the lower class in this area remember that it is us Feixing who are their masters!" the man said.

Subsequently, Zhang Juan was bound and taken all the way to hang above the Gold Transformation Pool.

The black, bubbling pool emitted a noxious odor, and the pain inside her left her no strength to shout or struggle.

Around her, shadows appeared—wanderers summoned to witness this scene.

"Look closely; this is the fate of those who oppose us!"

With a flick of his hand, the air turned into a sharp blade that severed the rope.

"Splash~!"

Her body fell into the special acid capable of melting even metal, the skin feeling a horrific burning and searing pain.

But at this moment, her hands and feet were bound, incapable of struggling.

The pain pierced her Divine Soul as her flesh dissolved, rendering the anguish unbearable.

Yet amidst this agony, a unique rule was taking effect.

Invisibly, her mutating talent began to merge with the rules of this world.

Suddenly, in an instant, the excruciating pain halved; the strong acid no longer harmed her; she could even proactively absorb and refine the acid, storing it within her. She jerked open her damaged eyelids, her murky eyes vaguely perceiving some glimmers of light.

Though she couldn't see, she could sense the Feixing Gang members on the high platform.

"Shhh~!"

Several streams of acid swiftly shot out, enveloping all the figures on the platform.

"Ahhhh~! Pain~ so much pain!!"

"No no no~!"

The acid clung to them, their bodies quickly dissolving.

The worst was the leader; the acid splashed on his cheeks, melting down to bone in just two breaths, revealing his brain.

One person's abdomen was dissolved through by the acid, and he fell from the platform, body twitching before falling still.

This should have been the moment for the Feixing Gang to assert their power; now it served as their own execution ground.

The scene shifted rapidly as Zhang Juan struggled to move, swimming to the edge of the acid pool, climbing out with great effort.

By now, not an inch of her body was unharmed, covered in burn-like marks, horrifying to behold.

Vaguely, she saw people around her, staggering to take a couple of steps in search of help, but the outstretched hand only scared the wanderers into retreating.

She seemed to understand that she was now completely different from them.

Pain and hunger manifested inside her, yet she also felt new power starting to build.

.....

Half a month later, she had annihilated the Feixing Gang completely, uprooting them, along with several affiliated gangs.

However, she had also become a wanted criminal.

In the alley, looking at the words "wanted" on the holographic projection, she couldn't help but sneer.

Can you believe it? This crappy place actually talks about the rule of law?

Why weren't those people wanted when she was bullied?

Angry, acid flowed from Zhang Juan's palm, casually killing the two gang leaders dragged here, then kicking them into the trash heap.

She had decided to establish new rules here.

Her rules!!!
