Chapter 657: I really want to eat the master bite by bite

You successfully reversed time, which is defying heaven; the price is not only losing most of your strength, but also leaving a part of yourself forever in the past.

You are unaware of this; you only know that if you only have this strength, once it is sensed, it will surely be a dead end.

But suddenly, your power began to surge, quickly returning to its peak; however, the price is that you have become more mature, now looking like you are twenty-eight or twenty-nine, though your actual age is not that.

You realized this is probably another kind of world's self-repairing force; to maintain the world's normal operation, it pulled your strength to the peak, but the price is that your lifespan will disappear.

Normally, advancing from senior investigator to chief would take two or three years, but this time the world directly helped you skip the crisis.

Your lifespan has been greatly shortened, but fortunately this gives you the ability to resolve the immediate crisis: the interrogation by the Anomaly Bureau.

Afterward, in front of many people, you used the device that tests a chief's will on Qi Yu; the result was fine, thus temporarily sparing Qi Yu from being taken away, but this is not a long-term solution.

Finally, after you contributed 100cc of blood to the one-eyed glasses man, this matter was considered temporarily settled.

The grudge has been formed—no, I should say this time we have officially turned against each other; and that one-eyed glasses man is named Si Luo, head of the Anomaly Bureau's Biological Research Department.

You began to devise plans, to formulate methods to counter him; as your body matured, your thinking likewise became more mature, all due to hormones within your body.

Such changes are both good and bad for you, but for Qi Yu they are purely bad.

Hmm, yes, I have already grasped some of his weaknesses.

Destroy the experiment, or simply use a knife to kill someone.

This is Zhang Jie and Ceng Tian drafting a battle plan against Si Luo; he wants to thoroughly kill this jerk to eliminate future trouble.

As for Qi Yu, he is now lying not far from Zhang Jie, boredly looking at Zhang Jie; appearing calm on the surface, but his mind is racing wildly.

Master, how have you become so cold?

Master, do you have another bug?

Master, are you interested in Lei Na?

Master, are you....

The more Qi Yu thought, the worse he felt; he pitifully glanced at Zhang Jie, then rolled over uncomfortably, continuing to be emo.

By the way, recently another chief has appeared in the western district, and several other areas show signs of chiefs emerging.

Your appearance seems to have broken something.

Ceng Tian looked at him, who is now considerably younger than Zhang Jie, while Zhang Jie himself was holding a cup of tea and sipping it lightly.

Old now—once a man passes twenty-five, it feels like two different worlds.

Now he prefers to drink a little tea.

It's fine; my brother will be there soon.

Zhang Jie said, taking a sip of tea; Zhang Shuo is considered the second fastest in his family, but his situation is truly special.

He has no supernatural abilities at all; indeed, none—the martial arts manual he practiced back then actually gave him no supernatural abilities.

Even now, he relies purely on brute strength, completely depending on sheer force to fight hard; yet even so, his strength is not inferior to those of the same level.

Sigh, well, I now have to secure my position as the weakest chief again.

Don't rush.

Zhang Jie suddenly pulled out a bottle of blood from behind him—his own, specially mixed with a coagulant.

This was originally meant as rations for Qi Yu, but the matured Zhang Jie suddenly thought of many things, believing his blood definitely has special effects.

Otherwise, that person, Si Luo, wouldn't be so eager for his blood.

"Come with me to the North Pole Polluted Area, drink this, and let me see."

"What is this thing?"

Ceng Tian was puzzled, but never mind—his limited brain capacity can't comprehend too many things.

"Alright, when do we set out?"

"Now."

Zhang Jie said, turning to look at Qi Yu, who was lying uncomfortably on the mat.

"Watermelon rind, come."

"Oh!"

Qi Yu immediately sprang up, waddling toward Zhang Jie, showing no trace of his earlier emo demeanor.

"Tonight is Lei Na's ceremony to enter the elite guard; remember to go there first."

"I need to go out with your uncle Ceng Tian; I'll return tonight. Remember to stay with my older brother at all times—did you hear me?"

The little bug girl's initially happy expression instantly drooped; she felt that this time her master seemed to have aged ten years overnight, speaking in a stiff, formal way, which she disliked.

"Oh... Master, you've become so strange...."

"Haha, what's strange about it?"

"Like an old man."

Zhang Jie's mouth twitched—this damned kid, how dare he talk like that!

After tugging twice at Qi Yu's head, Zhang Jie and Ceng Tian immediately set off, leaving Qi Yu alone.

"Master..."

Qi Yu gazed at Zhang Jie's retreating back; for some reason, a red flash streaked across the depths of his eyes.

Tonight is Lei Na's promotion ceremony; this person, whom she regards as her biggest rival, who once could only cower beneath her authority, that 'ordinary' junior, has actually surpassed her.

This made Qi Yu feel very uneasy; the melodramatic novels he had read played out wildly in his mind, making him feel as if Zhang Jie would be snatched away at any moment.

Moreover, his current strange appearance and odd attitude toward him caused Qi Yu to suddenly conceive a very strange idea.

No, I should say it is a idea that resurfaced from deep within his subconscious.

She wants to keep Zhang Jie forever by her side.

That is a strange possessiveness; as long as she achieves this goal, it doesn't matter what he becomes.

"How strange..."

But I really want... to let the Master stay forever...

Qi Yu's cheeks turned red; for some reason, her mind kept conjuring the image of herself sucking Zhang Jie's blood.

Actually, every time she drank blood, Qi Yu would fantasize, imagining that she had truly devoured Zhang Jie, in all sorts of meanings of "devour".

"Ugh... it's so strange, I can't think about it anymore."

Qi Yu hurriedly left this place and walked toward the office where Brother Zhang Jie was; she still listened to Zhang Jie's words.

Meanwhile, the other two, after flying at extreme speed for an hour, finally arrived at the North Pole.

This place is the most severely polluted spot on the entire planet, because the planet's rotation causes air currents to spin, constantly sending substances into the North Pole, which makes the North Pole the most dangerous place on any planet.

"What the hell do you want to do?"

"Drink it down, give it a try."

"Tsk, fine."

Ceng Tian pinched his nose and poured the entire bottle of blood down his throat, but the next moment he felt something was off.

Pollution... was wildly converging on him!!!

(So tired, so tired; a man after passing 25 becomes weak, feeling like he's about to be drained dry....)
