Chapter 119 Conan's Physique Under the Revival of Spiritual Energy (Part 3)

Upon hearing this, Lin Anran subconsciously looked towards Si Yisi.

But Si Yisi had already withdrawn his gaze. His eyelashes blinked slowly, and his dark eyes seemed unfocused, as if his thoughts were wandering elsewhere.

Lin Anran said, "What...do you mean by this?"

A glint of light flashed in her pupils, and there were signs of fluctuation in the spiritual energy emanating from her body.

Lin Anran subconsciously used her "clear-headed" ability, and her thinking became exceptionally clear, as if a pair of hands had opened the door to true knowledge for her.

Lin Anran's gaze fell on Si Yisi's half-closed eyes, as she tried to find any clues in Si Yisi.

If there really is a Grim Reaper in this world—then it should look like Li Banxue right in front of me, right?

He seemed completely out of place in this world, giving off a distinctly detached feeling. The occasional inhuman aura he exuded made Lin Anran hold her breath…

What did she "see"?

She seemed to see a whole fierce army through Si Yisi's eyes, as well as the faint, ethereal silhouette of a black palace.

Slaughter! Cheers! It was as if black feathers were falling from the sky, sounding the horn of death!

"I……"

Lin An then took a step back, staggered a bit, and then regained his balance.

"Is there anything else?" Si Yisi asked her.

"N-nothing's wrong." This time, Lin Anran didn't dare to look Si Yisi in the eye.

The scene she observed while "conscious" did not provide her with accurate feedback, but only left some basic vigilance, subconsciously telling Lin Anran... danger!

Lin Anran's unusual behavior did not escape Si Yisi's notice. He originally thought he was about to be interrogated, but it ended up being all bark and no bite.

And while Lin Anran was observing him, Si Yisi was also observing her in return!

In that brief eye contact, Si Yisi actually caught a sense of familiarity in Lin Anran.

In the previous world, he said goodbye to Freya, and in this new world, he found Freya's "traces" in Lin Anran!

Is he in a timeline that follows the previous world?

Si Yisi ignored Lin Anran, who seemed hesitant to speak, and returned to his rented hotel in silence.

Li Banxue used an old-fashioned cell phone, but it had no major problems with internet access. Li Banxue herself had no memories related to Freya, leading Si Yisi to suspect that her existence might have been concealed.

Si Yisi tried typing "star," which displayed a game that had been discontinued decades ago. Its entry was displayed alone, but the CEO of the company that produced the game showed—

Freya.

Just as I thought!

After confirming the matter, Si Yisi did not dwell on it much.

If Freya were still alive, they would definitely be able to meet again.

The hotel's television was playing a news story that dominated the screen. The host, in a sweet voice, said: "It is reported that our country's top leader recently stated that a special organization for the accommodation of spiritual practitioners will be established to eliminate any factors that may harm social harmony."

"For practitioners who injure or kill others or endanger public property, the government will send relevant personnel to restrain and supervise them."

Si Yisi raised an eyebrow—restraint, regulation?

In the current climate of spiritual energy revival, cultivators are undoubtedly highly sought after.

This also means that some of them are exempt from legal sanctions... they will not be dealt with according to the law like most criminals.

Liang Muyun is quite clever.

Even if she were to actually kill Si Yisi, she would be spared death because of her age and her status as a cultivator.

It's a pity that she had to make a move against Si Yisi.

Regardless of the outcome, she has completely disappeared from this world.

"Mom, I want to enroll in that national training class." Si Yisi looked out of the hotel on the first floor and heard a boy talking to his mother.

Under the guidance of the state, most of the people who benefited from the spiritual revival settled down in a short period of time, while the restless ones were arrested and placed under supervision immediately.

The situation in China is excellent, far better than the atmosphere abroad.

Many people abroad have their own beliefs, making it far more difficult to unite them than in China. Furthermore, there are numerous individuals who, under the guise of divine descent or divine judgment, have established several cults to seize opportunities and mislead people.

Li Banxue's body did not show any spiritual energy, making her easily overlooked in this era of trends.

but……

Si Yisi frowned and muttered to herself, "This is for myself and for Li Banxue."

—You seem to be hiding many secrets.

As an ordinary person, one can sometimes enjoy a much greater degree of freedom than a practitioner who is destined to be controlled by the state.

Coincidentally, the prevalence of spiritual power can suppress certain professions, making it easier to acquire a small restaurant.

—One month later.

The major event of the spiritual revival has led to schools extending their start dates, leaving only half a month until the end of this longest summer vacation.

I heard that Chonghua University, which Li Banxue was admitted to, also added a special class specifically for cultivators.

Si Yisi opened a small restaurant as Li Banxue wished. Li Banxue's uncle's family probably hated Si Yisi to the bone, but they were sure they couldn't find Si Yisi before she enrolled in school.

Si Yisi watched the few customers scattered around the shop.

He chopped the vegetables quickly. The restaurant run by Si Yisi wasn't doing well, but it wasn't bad either.

The system is proficient in all cuisines in its knowledge base, but when it comes to cooking... every dish is as exquisite as a work of art, truly a feast for the eyes.

The taste was nothing special; it tasted like something mass-produced.

Chi Chun, who had just finished speaking with Si Yisi, couldn't help but laugh until his stomach hurt. He was laughing so hard he could barely breathe.

"Asi, the way you cook—you look like an assassin. The ruthless kind."

"If you can't cook, just hire a helper... Why force yourself to do it, hahaha!"

Amidst Chi Chun's wild laughter, Si Yisi served a dish. He personally handled everything in this small shop, and his efficiency was so high that everyone else was in awe.

"The dishes you added."

Si Yisi sensed the spiritual energy emanating from the customer in front of her, but it was obvious that he was just a beginner with a very weak foundation.

The guest had just taken a bite with his chopsticks when his face suddenly turned bright red!

As if he were being choked, his face turned from bright red to deathly pale in the blink of an eye!

"Vegetables, vegetables are available—"

The guest struggled to speak a second before falling, then slammed his head on the table with a thud!

The commotion he caused several customers who were eating in the restaurant to put down their chopsticks, and one or two of them turned pale with shock at the sudden turn of events!

What dishes are available?

The customer's unseeing eyes were staring at the few customers in the shop, with traces of blood seeping from the corners of his eyes and a strange smile on his lips!

Someone's dead!

"I recognize him!" one guest exclaimed, nearly flipping the table in surprise. "He's a spiritual practitioner!"

The other guest's expression also changed. The young man stood up abruptly and looked at Si Yisi: "Don't move, hands up!"

The words "Spiritual Qi Revival Branch" gleamed brightly before Si Yisi's eyes once again.
