Chapter 679: Best Actor among Best Actors

"Ding, due to the host possessing a Dao body, before the Dao body is fused, the host's current lifespan is two hundred and fifty years, and five hundred years of lifespan cannot be deducted!"

The system prompt sounded!

Xu Que was instantly dumbfounded!

What does that mean?

This King of Acting Cool is a dignified Void Refining Stage expert; even if part of his lifespan was taken away by the Dao body, it's impossible to have only two hundred and fifty years of lifespan left!

"Damn! System, you old bastard, you're the two hundred and fifty! As a Void Refining Stage expert, I have at least one or two thousand years of lifespan; how did it shrink by more than half?" Xu Que raged.

The system responded coldly: "According to the cultivation realm, a normal cultivator reaching the Void Refining Stage will have one thousand years of lifespan! But the host's divine soul transmigrated and does not belong to this world, therefore the lifespan cannot be increased normally!"

Holy crap!

So it turns out it's because I'm not a local?

"Wait, so what if I'm not a local? I cultivated to immortality with my own ability; why don't you give me an increase in lifespan? This is blatant discrimination against outsiders! Discrimination against transmigrators!" Xu Que said indignantly.

Having half the lifespan of others was simply too unfair!

"Ding, the host possesses a Dao body, and currently, most of the lifespan has been attributed to the Dao body. Once fused into one in the future, the host will be able to perfect oneself, and the lifespan will also return to normal, or even be higher than other cultivators!" The system gave an answer in an understated manner!

After hearing this, Xu Que finally breathed a sigh of relief.

So the lifespan had all been moved to the Dao body, and according to what the system said, he was currently still flawed; only by fusing with the Dao body in the future would he be considered perfect!

"Sigh! Happy!" Xu Que sighed gloomily to the system, yet said he was very happy, and then prepared to exit the system interface!

Suddenly, the system's voice rang in his ears: "Ding, why does the host sigh and say you are happy?"

Huh?

Xu Que was instantly startled!

What's the situation? This system is starting to care about people?

That's not right; how could the system pay attention to such words? Why is it so abnormal today? Has it become human?

But the next moment, he reacted!

This kind of situation had appeared before; as the system upgraded, it would become more and more anthropomorphic. Now it was only version 5.0, and it already occasionally cared about the host. If it upgraded to version 10.0 in the future, would it run out and chat with him when it had nothing to do?

Xu Que couldn't help but smile, actually looking forward to what the system would look like after upgrading in the future!

"I sighed because I felt relieved, and I feel happy from the bottom of my heart!" Xu Que answered the system!

"Why?" The system continued to ask, but its tone remained cold, like a machine!

Xu Que looked toward the sky at a forty-five-degree angle and sighed with emotion: "Because no one is perfect! As long as one is a person, one will have shortcomings!"

"What does this have to do with being happy?"

"Of course it has to do with it! Before this, I was always a perfect male god, perfect to the point of loneliness! But I don't want to be a male god; being a male god is too tiring. I just want to be an ordinary person. Now you finally tell me that I have shortcomings, which shows that I am also a person. You say, can I not be happy?" Xu Que said excitedly.

"..." The system went completely quiet and never responded again!

A moment later, Xu Que punched his chest a few times, blood spilled from his mouth, his face was pale, and he appeared with ten thousand "difficulties" on the water surface!

He didn't use the Ancient Life and Death Wheel, purely because he was afraid that if he acted poorly, he wouldn't be able to round it off—changing from old to young suddenly was really too scary!

So he changed his tactics, using this strategy of being severely injured but still stubbornly surviving as a hero!

"Splash!"

Water splashed in the lake, and Xu Que's figure emerged from it!

"Supreme Treasure!" Fairy Zixia shouted with joy instantly.

This was too unexpected for her. The fact that the array was broken was enough to shock her!

But she had also thought that the heroic and kind youth might not survive, but she hadn't expected that after the array was broken, he would still come out!

For her, this was undoubtedly a beautiful ending beyond imagination!

But soon, the smile on Fairy Zixia's face stiffened slightly, and her heart was inexplicably touched by something!

That youth, who had originally been handsome and elegant, with a sunny smile always hanging on his face, was now bloodless, with blood still spilling from the corners of his mouth!

He dragged his "difficult" steps, using his "trembling" legs, trying hard to prop up his "dying" body!

Obviously, he had already suffered unimaginable heavy injuries!

However, this was not enough to knock him down; he still stubbornly straightened his chest, swept his gaze over, and then on that pale cheek, he tried hard to make a sunny and brilliant smile at her!

"Supreme Treasure!"

Fairy Zixia called out softly. This time, there was no previous joy, only complex worry and emotion!

"Mi... Miss A-Zi, I... I'm back!" Xu Que smiled very "difficultly."

He was still walking, walking step by step, every step was so difficult, as if he could fall down at any time and never get up again!

The light sound of every foot landing touched Fairy Zixia's heart inexplicably!

What a powerful youth!

What a heroic youth!

Although his cultivation realm was only at the Golden Core Stage, looking at the whole world, who could be like him?

Unhesitatingly risking his life to save an ugly girl he met by chance!

Facing death without giving up, plunging headlong into the sea, breaking a terrifying array, and then stubbornly surviving and returning!

At this moment, he was not a person who had suffered heavy injuries, but a man with the momentum of a king's return!

Fairy Zixia's heart was filled with mixed feelings!

In this life, she had never met someone so excellent and willing to sacrifice his life for her!

She even felt that if she were still young, perhaps she would be moved by such an excellent youth!

It's just a pity...

Sigh!

Fairy Zixia sighed gloomily in her heart!

I was born before you were born, and when you were born, I was already old!

I am at the end of the world, and you are at the corner of the sea!

Supreme Treasure, we are ultimately people from two different worlds!

"Miss A-Zi, I... pfft!"

Xu Que had already walked back with difficulty and was about to speak when he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood!

"Supreme Treasure!" Fairy Zixia had already recovered and returned to calm. But seeing Xu Que spit blood, she was moved instantly, rushed forward, pinched a cyan pill between her slender fingers, handed it directly to Xu Que's mouth, and said anxiously, "Quickly take the pill!"

"Good! Thank you, Miss A-Zi, you are truly a good person!" Xu Que smiled with style and took the pill!

At the same time, he felt ashamed in his heart; he had punched himself a bit too hard just now, and he was actually injured!

This mouthful of blood was truly spat out uncontrollably; it was truer than anything!

This was absolutely worthy of being the Best Actor among Best Actors!

Xu Que secretly admired himself in his heart, feeling that he was very cool!

However, after taking the pill, before he had time to use the system's automatic recovery function, the injuries in his body quickly entered a state of recovery!

Xu Que was instantly startled, looked at Fairy Zixia in astonishment, and asked, "Miss A-Zi, what kind of divine medicine is this? My injuries are actually recovering so quickly!"

"It's nothing, just an ordinary healing medicine!" Fairy Zixia smiled slightly and said indifferently.

Even so, Xu Que was very clear that the pill she had just taken out probably wasn't simple! At the very least, it was an eight-star treasure pill; otherwise, it couldn't possess such powerful recovery power!

"Supreme Treasure, how did you do it? You actually really broke that array!" At this moment, Fairy Zixia looked at Xu Que and asked curiously.

Xu Que smiled instantly, feeling relieved, "Just good luck! Actually, besides knowing a little about the way of arrays, I also know a little about chess. Just now, I used myself as a chess piece, entered the chessboard, and fought against it, but I didn't expect this chess game to be so dangerous; I almost lost my life several times! At that moment, I even thought I was playing chess against Heaven!"

"In the end, you still won!" Fairy Zixia smiled slightly, her beautiful eyes fixed on Xu Que, filled with admiration from the bottom of her heart!

At least for her, even if she hadn't suppressed her strength, she wouldn't have been able to break this terrifying great array!

At this moment, Xu Que sighed indifferently, looked up at the sky, and said in a low voice, "Sigh, it's just... winning half a move against Heaven!"
