Chapter 934: Conversation with the Mysterious Person! The Demon

~7 min read 1,385 words

Vision Perception of these words made Su Yang somewhat puzzled.

"Again this sentence?"

Back when he first received the Letter, the other party told him not to become a 'Divine Ascension' Seed.

But by then the wood had already become a boat; Su Yang had no choice, and none could be had!

After finally climbing to the summit, the reward was right before his eyes; could he just say give up and give up?

While others sat in that position with a clear conscience, how could Su Yang abandon it without care?

Everything he did was to make himself "stand out"!

Moreover, the mysterious person's identity was unknown; how could he trust without ever having met?

No matter how many times this matter replayed, Su Yang could never give up!

Because the current Cognition and choice left no second path to take.

As for the Free Person…

Su Yang pondered briefly, wrote — 'Then what?'

This reply was a bit slow; he waited a full five minutes.

Mysterious person: "What reward do you ask about after becoming a 'Free Person'?"

Su Yang: "Of course, it must be far better than my current state; otherwise why would I abandon everything I have to walk an unknown road?"

Mysterious person: "The road you walk now also has no visible end."

Su Yang: "Ahead of me are countless pioneers; they trial and error, and also step into traps."

"To them, I am merely a baby just learning to walk."

"But precisely because I am still in swaddling, I can learn from predecessors' experience, gather the strengths of many schools, and achieve a curve‑overtake!"

"You say the 'Divine Ascension' Seed is a scam; so far I have seen no flaws or traps."

"On the contrary, the 'Free Person' makes me feel constrained everywhere, and my development is slower than that of normal Dependents."

"On the surface, an identity with no benefits or retreat, how can one speak of meaning without turning back?"

The mysterious person fell suddenly silent.

Su Yang's finger lightly tapped the table, waiting silently for the next words.

Indeed, his dialogue with the other side was no longer limited to probing.

It was more a kind of game!

The reason Su Yang said these is that he felt many competing interests might be mixed within.

Living amid the torrent of the era's waves, there is no such thing as neutrality.

Either keep one's head down and continue forward.

Or, as the mysterious person said—abandon everything and start anew.

However, Su Yang was extremely curious about the 'Free Person'.

First, Huang Hua's motive remains uninvestigated to this day.

Second, the Old Era Organization sending an Olive Branch to Chao Yinyun also raises suspicion.

Third, Jiang Chengyu remains unharmed after losing Yue Zhao's protection.

Now, added to the mysterious person's strong emphasis.

The text is filled with undeniable...

And carries a few degrees of hardness.

Such an attitude inevitably makes Su Yang curious.

What mystery lies within this?

Could this layer of identity grant him unimaginable benefits?

Or is this a pre‑unlock condition for the Golden Throne?

After a while, Su Yang still hadn't received a reply.

He couldn't help but wonder, "Where is the person?"

Out of words, or…

Broken defense?

It shouldn't be that extreme…

Su Yang shook his head and laughed; it seemed the Communication Meeting ended here.

Just as he set down his pen, a 'swish swish' sound rang again.

Fixing his gaze, at the bottom were only a few scribbled words — "Remove your 'Taboo' crest."

?

Su Yang was stunned, his head full of question marks.

He even knew this?

Did opening the Heavenly Eye fail?

Only he and Sister Yao Ri knew about the crest.

Qin Weiyang, Lin Yang and a few others only glanced at it.

They were not clear about the secret within.

Nor did they know its origin.

How did he come to know it?

Could it be…

"Is he actually also a member of the 'Taboo'?" Su Yang thought.

But this doesn't make sense either.

One must know that people in the Taboo always regard Divine Ascension as the Final Task.

This layer of identity cannot be shed.

Moreover, this person clearly stands opposite Sister Yao Ri.

The two's completely opposite allegiances already indicate a relationship as antagonistic as water and fire.

Could it even be an Undercover operation?

Su Yang thought this while rubbing the crest.

At the same time, the mysterious person transmitted another message—"Flip to the back, drop a drop of Blood Dropping onto it."

Hm?

Su Yang stared in shock at the line of text.

"What is he saying? Playing the Blood Dropping recognition master routine?"

Looking down, the back of the crest was utterly smooth, with no Seal Mark or trace at all.

Only the front bore a ferocious, terrifying Demon image.

The texture was clear, vivid as if alive!

It was precisely this Demon that granted Su Yang a slight, soul‑capturing ability as well.

Now the mysterious person actually makes him perform Blood Dropping?

Could the crest have some other hidden secret?

Thinking of this, Su Yang hesitated briefly, gritted his teeth, and took a Small Knife from the drawer.

"Just a drop of blood, nothing much."

Having decided, he gently slashed his finger.

A bead of blood instantly flowed out.

Seizing the still‑unhealed gap, Su Yang hurriedly smeared the blood onto the back of the crest.

Almost instantly, rolling Black Mist suddenly erupted from within the crest.

Like a beacon of smoke, it rose slowly.

Until it enveloped his upper body.

"This…"

Su Yang suddenly felt a wave of panic for no reason.

He hurriedly took two steps forward to dodge.

But the Black Mist seemed to have grown eyes, following him tightly.

"What on earth is this thing?" Su Yang waved his hand, only to find it couldn't be dispelled at all.

Su Yang realized the Black Mist caused him no harm, and immediately calmed down.

All of this originated from the Blood Dropping.

Then…

He looked down and found the Demon image on the crest had completely vanished!

It turned into an unremarkable ordinary circular metal piece.

"What's going on?" Su Yang furrowed his brows.

He tentatively touched it several times, only to discover not only the image was gone, but even the original rough texture had vanished!

In its place was a mirror‑like smoothness.

Su Yang's first reaction was that he had been duped.

Damn it, the mysterious person deliberately made him do this, causing him to lose the crest's power.

Just as he was about to write a few curses—

A sudden anomaly erupted!

The Black Mist that had been wrapping his torso began to tremble violently.

Without any warning, as if confronting a natural enemy.

He could even sense a human‑like fear emanating from it.

"Does the smoke have emotions?" Su Yang was astonished.

Yet what surprised him even more was still to come.

"Eek!!"

Accompanied by a sharp burst, the Black Mist shattered with a booming sound.

Su Yang subconsciously closed his eyes.

After waiting a few seconds without feeling any discomfort, he slowly opened his eyes.

The scene before him shocked him immensely.

The original mist still lingered, but had changed from black to milky white.

Its texture was soft, like a cloud.

Also like cotton candy.

It possessed no aggression or ferocity.

Its gentleness made him feel as if curled in his mother's embrace.

Both stable and comforting.

"These are…"

Su Yang tried to reach out and touch.

The instant the Finger tip could touch it, the White Mist, like a frightened little bird, flapped once and fled far away.

It seemed to carry a human-like alertness.

After confirming there was no danger, it gathered again.

Divine!

Su Yang found it amusing and teased it a few more times.

"This little fellow is actually quite cute."

He said so, his gaze dropping down to examine carefully.

At that moment, the Corner of Eye's lingering glance suddenly caught a change in the seal.

Su Yang suddenly lowered his gaze, and saw the back of the Blood Dropping seal suddenly undergo a great change!

The smooth texture was gone, and under the eye, the Seal Mark was a Humanoid Creature with a pair of wings.

Su Yang's tiger body jolted, his eyes widened,

"Angel?!"
