Chapter 732: Chapter 730 Yan He_1 Chapter 732: Chapter 730 Yan He_1 “I think I understand, but it seems your ‘momentum’ hasn’t had much of an effect, has it?”
As he recalled the past, Fu Qian didn’t delay in continuing to mock.
“I’ve told you before, the definition of luck isn’t so absolute.”
With her vast experience, Takahashi Yaehiro adjusted her mentality with incredible strength, speaking slowly and steadily, showing no sign of having just faced a death threat.
“The difference between keeping me alive and killing me is quite vast.”
She pointed to her own face.
“Believe me, in these few hundred years, there have been more than one or two who wished to do just that.”
“However, the outcome in the end is that most of them are no longer here, while I am still alive and well.”
“This includes just now, Lady Violetta came after me, my choice to stop and not flee was simply to avoid causing too much trouble.”
“It’s for the best for everyone, after all, you probably wouldn’t want the buildings nearby to suddenly collapse, or the vehicles on the road to lose control, would you?”
“I even informed my subordinates not to come over and add to the chaos.”
“What do you think? Doesn’t that show sincerity?”
By the end of Takahashi Yaehiro’s monologue, her posture had already become increasingly lofty, showing no trace of her prior escape.
“Got it, you are respecting fate and acting accordingly.”
Fu Qian looked as if he’d had an epiphany.
“But then there’s another question, why would someone as perceptive of destiny as you join Yasui Corp, and be subordinate to others?”
“Considering your age is even longer than Yasui Corp’s, theoretically, you could have built one of your own.”
“Why not build one? Is it because you don’t like to?”
“I must say, compared to your ability to attract trouble, your fragile life seems a bit mismatched.”
Even though she had already braced herself psychologically, Old Master Takahashi’s state of mind was agitated once more.
“But the answer to this question is also very simple, you just mentioned perceiving destiny.”
“For hundreds of years, I have tried countless times to glimpse my own destiny, searching for the path of a demigod, but such futures are always shrouded in mist, unreachable.”
“Until Yasui Corp appeared and let me see the possible variables in that mist.”
“I never refuse the gifts of fate.”
It must be said that after the previous mutual probes, Old Master Takahashi’s attitude in communication was very spot-on, speaking freely about his capabilities very clearly.
Of course, a very important reason was that his ability was special and knowing about it wouldn’t really be of use to others.
For his enemies, this thing was absolutely immune to countermeasures.
The best way seemed to be Su Gao’s method just now, overpowering brute force, crushing the space for destiny to maneuver, causing the “momentum” to collapse.
Speaking of which, Su Gao had just shown off another skill.
It was clear that the shockwave blade had indeed scared Takahashi Yaehiro.
As for why it could achieve that effect, Fu Qian could easily think of Su Gao’s answer–I didn’t know either, I just wanted to do it, and then I did.
“You mentioned earlier that you are not in charge of this, correct?”
Having satisfied his curiosity about Old Master Takahashi’s abilities, in the next moment, he flashed the badge in his hand.
“Indeed, I don’t have that much time to waste on such pure amusement.”
Giving a disdainful tone when mentioning the Infamy Rule, Takahashi Yaehiro.
Tsk tsk, what enthusiasm!
But you’ve had three hundred years of not playing, and it seems like you don’t have much to show for it.
“I think it’s quite interesting.”
The next moment, Fu Qian shook his head.
“At the very least, the sound that thing emits seems to belong to the Transcendent domain, doesn’t it?”
“Three hundred years.”
Takahashi Yaehiro’s face wore a sneer.
“Do you know how many such things I’ve seen in my lifetime? Many of them had much stranger aspects, and in the end, they turned out to be worthless.”
“Then why make such a fuss?”
Fu Qian hinted at the little tricks Takagi had pulled.
“I have my duties, of course, but since those duties are exceedingly tedious, I choose to add a bit of fun.”
Takahashi Yaehiro’s demeanor was quite lofty.
“I see, so you’re just a security officer.”
Fu Qian nodded, understanding clearly.
“So annoying, yet you have to stay here, it seems the person in charge has a higher status than you.”
…
It looked like Takahashi Yaehiro was not going to reveal any information about the real project leader.
Although over the long years, it was apparent that his mind was not entirely sound–for example, disdainfully spurning play while at the same time seeking dangerous thrills.
But on key matters, he had not completely lost his reason, and in response to Fu Qian’s questions, he chose to remain silent.
“What a delightful academic exchange, you may leave now.”
Feeling the atmosphere tighten slightly again, Fu Qian stretched his body and yawned.
Of course, heedful of the doctor’s advice, he did not change his position.
“Really?”
Takahashi Yaehiro was skeptical and even glanced at Su Gao initially.
“Why not? Thanks for clearing things up, I’ve learned a lot today.”
Fu Qian said sincerely.
…I didn’t reveal any important information just now, did I?
His words successfully made Takahashi Yaehiro’s heart beat with uncertainty, as he quickly reviewed the content of their exchange.
Nevertheless, being able to extricate himself smoothly was definitely good news.
And he hadn’t come away empty-handed, either.
At least, it seemed that this guy named Darcy was not the mere pawn he had imagined him to be.
Even the Siren’s Fourth Phase pinnacle figure seemed to value his opinion highly.
Essentially, this was not good news because the more it seemed so, the more his previous actions seemed premeditated.
And with the recent string of problems occurring one after another in various projects…
After confirming that Su Gao had no intention of stopping him, Takahashi Yaehiro left without a word, his agile figure akin to someone hurrying to clock out from work.
“Do you think there’s a problem with this thing?”
Only after he was gone did Su Gao approach Fu Qian, looking at the badge in his hand and asking.
Acting with restraint had allowed the conflict to dissolve subtly into thin air, which felt quite satisfying to her.
“Hard to say, at least there’s no issue with the official verification for now. I just find it interesting.”
Fu Qian toyed with the badge.
“A redundant, useless definition that yet encompasses everyone, like an added attribute.”
“And the varying levels, even quantifiable values, also prove that it has its own set of rules, they just seem pointless for now.”
“To me, it’s a quite fascinating existence. I’m a bit curious to meet the person who invented this thing.”
All in all, this trip to Ye Island had been quite fruitful.
Whether it was the Miracle Elixir or the Infamy Rule, such borderline crazy actions had quite the flavor of the Native Council.
