Or the least technical in terms of flesh and blood abilities? You make it hard for me not to be reminded of someone named Ariel.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What an unexpected gain, other than the Council, there seems to be someone else who can achieve this! I believe Ya Yu will be quite interested.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who is Ya Yu?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After letting him brag for a moment, Fu Qian finally asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good question!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing it, Camus let out a string of cold laughs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Actually, I’d also like to know who he is.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aren’t you very concerned about what we’re doing here? This operation is organized by him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ll be taken there as my Puppet, and I’m sure he will be interested in you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough talk, the Night Watchman should be here soon; we don’t have much time. Do you want to know what happened to you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What happened?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian silently surveyed the surroundings, noticing that everyone in the café had succumbed to a state of ecstatic revelry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention that Camus had been targeted long before, just the commotion alone was enough to attract the Night Watchman without surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t want to.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next moment, he withdrew his gaze and shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…You don’t want to know?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Realizing what Fu Qian had said, Old Master Camus looked at him incredulously, almost choking on his own saliva.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s good to be confused, I’m always easy-going.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian stated it as if it were a matter of course.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Speaking of which, you know we don’t have much time before the Night Watchman arrives, so why waste time babbling with me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the suddenly silent Camus, Fu Qian squeezed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sorry, I have no lingering attachments about dying in clarity this time, so I’m not ready to listen to your victory speech; just go ahead and start.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How can there be such a terrible guy!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian’s response had clearly broken some cognitive limit of Old Master Camus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, the latter glared with unreasonable anger, staring at Fu Qian as if facing the murderer of his father.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why haven’t you started? Hurry up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian even began to urge him, with a provoking smile on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is it… if I don’t know, then your Puppet plan cannot continue?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“`…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re not stupid, but so what!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing Fu Qian’s provocation, Old Master Camus gritted his teeth, almost admitting the implication.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even if you have thought of this point, do you think you have a way to refuse?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Due to the difference in tiers, I indeed had no way to deal with you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But in the long career of a Transcendent, I’ve thought too many times about how to deal with monsters of pure flesh and blood power just like you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, he raised his hand, and a dense mass of blood-colored lines wriggled on his skin, spreading out in all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These eerie patterns crisscrossed each other, slicing the skin and flesh into indescribable patterns, making the body seem like a gathering of countless strange creatures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just one glance made one feel like their own flesh and blood structure was being twisted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, the best plan is the one I got from Ya Yu.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Believe me, the Council’s accumulation of research on flesh power far exceeds your imagination.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is the Godblood Curse, said to originate from the blood of a True God, one of the Native Council’s earliest finds.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Once afflicted, without specific preparation, even a Demigod has no way to be immune.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Camus spoke, the thumb on one of his hands came to life, struggling fiercely, and after a few seconds, it completely broke free and fell onto his wrist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, the nail on the thumb rapidly lengthened, transforming it into the likeness of a legless beetle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I just activated the talisman I got from Ya Yu, and now we’re both cursed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, the beetle that Camus’s thumb had become crawled a few steps and then burrowed under his skin, quickly beginning to travel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And to this horrifying scene, he appeared completely unconcerned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The physical body is far less reliable than the spirit. Too bad you fools will never understand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, a normal-looking, phantom shadow of a thumb appeared on his mutilated palm, completing his existence in some special way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This Curse is almost specifically targeting the flesh structure, and naturally, my resistance is worse than yours.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The problem is, the stable state of the body is far less important to me than it is to you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Camus spoke with a hint of satisfaction in his voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In fact, if you had let me go just now, I wouldn’t have taken such a risk.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now we both are under the Curse, our bodies in a semi-uncontrollable state.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Under these circumstances, my advantages can come into play.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Have you noticed, I don’t need to open my mouth for my voice to appear in your consciousness? This is just the beginning.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The seed of corruption has been planted, and soon you will not be able to distinguish which thoughts are your own and which are my suggestions.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You guessed right, I actually need your awareness of it because any psychological discernment you undertake as a result will only speed up the process.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you were not aware of it, the process would be much slower.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But what use is your correct guess? As soon as I mention it, you can’t help but think in that direction.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Camus’s body was completely disfigured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Anyway, I originally only planned to hide using your identity, but now it seems to be an unexpected windfall.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t worry, once I have complete control, I’ll suppress the Curse and won’t let this rare puppet completely fall apart.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is that so?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian looked at the tentacles that now covered his eyeballs and then glanced at the triumphant Camus, clicking his tongue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old man, I can understand your feelings, but fighting desperately is one thing, overindulging in self-hypnosis is not a good habit.\u003C\u002Fp>",1190,"2026-06-03T07:50:43.059Z","2026-06-03T07:50:47.187Z",1,"novelbin.me","f9f8a581df5f141b36d96a133149f97cb3aaa0cfb998e4ef0f3856361d676605","facing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-chapter-580","facing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-chapter-578",2389,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffacing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-cover.jpg"]
