Dongyuan City, villa.
"Is it really because of a curse?"
Recalling the scene when he was caught just now, Xia Zhi couldn't help but wonder if he was really unlucky.
After all, Yue Qingcheng should have been in the abyss before.
This time, not only did he come back suddenly, he even went to the floating city that he seldom visited.
And that would be fine, the key point is that she caught me and Zhou Yanran together. Even the "super intelligence" was only calculated to have a probability of more than ten percent.
Xia Zhi scratched his head, feeling a little annoyed.
Curses are the most annoying form of attack, especially curses that don't even have a specific attack mode.
I want to defend myself, but I don't know how. According to Huo Zun, even drinking water will get stuck in my teeth.
"Crack~"
Just as Xia Zhi was thinking about how to deal with the situation, the door was opened and Ke Yan walked in.
Perhaps because he came back so often, Ke Yan didn't seem very surprised.
"You look unhappy, did you get caught having an affair?"
Ke Yan asked casually with a smile, but saw that Xia Zhi's face became even uglier.
"Could it be that I'm right?"
With a surprised expression, Ke Yan walked to Xia Zhi and took a closer look.
No need to think about it, she must have guessed it right.
Then Xia Zhi was met with a burst of ridicule from Ke Yan.
"Can't you go out and level up if you're fine? What will you do if the Abyss attacks you in the future?"
Xia Zhi changed the subject with a grim expression.
Although Ke Yan is his good brother, it feels really bad to be ridiculed by others.
"It's because your illegitimate daughter is too clingy. I was planning to leave your two good daughters at the Jiang family for a few days, and then we'll go out to level up."
Ke Yan shrugged helplessly and said.
When Xia Zhi heard the word "illegitimate daughter", he quickly covered Ke Yan's mouth, stuck his head out in a lewd manner, and opened up his mental power.
I felt relieved after I found out that Jiang Yuxuan was not there.
"Don't worry, he's not here."
Ke Yan rolled her eyes, pushed Xia Zhi's hand away, and then continued.
"I think you should come clean sooner rather than later. Yuxuan is very good to the child. It will be discovered sooner or later anyway, so it's better to speak up sooner rather than later."
Jiang Yuxuan has always treated the child as her own. Besides, Jiang Yuxuan is not a fool, so sooner or later she will become suspicious of Xia Zhi because of his philandering character.
Rather than being caught later, it is better to confess proactively.
"Don't worry about it, we'll talk about it later."
Xia Zhi let go of Ke Yan's hand with a depressed look on his face.
There's nothing we can do about it, this child is just too special.
The key point is that after knowing that the child is hers, Jiang Yuxuan will definitely ask who the child's mother is.
How did he say this?
Could it be that he is the child born to Yue Qingcheng’s mother?
If Jiang Yuxuan knew about this, wouldn't she look at him like a thief from now on?
"I'm just reminding you not to be so frivolous all day long."
After saying that, Ke Yan took the doll on the table and left the room.
Looking at Ke Yan's departing back, Xia Zhi sighed secretly. There really were a lot of troubles happening.
Now he seriously suspected that it was the influence of the curse that made him feel so bad.
…
In the evening, Xia Zhi sat cross-legged in an empty room.
Pets were all around, some eating snacks and some playing games.
After a while, Xia Zhi opened his eyes.
"Go out and play! You're getting in the way of my practice!"
With an impatient look on his face, he drove these idle pets out of the room.
After practicing for half a day, the progress bar of the data law only increased by one point, from 0.00001 to 0.00002.
With this level of training efficiency, wouldn't it take decades of training to break through to the Saint Realm?
You have to know that he was practicing the law of Blue Star that had a comprehension bonus. If he were to practice another law, he would not be able to break through the holy realm even if he were given ten thousand years.
And this was not what annoyed him the most.
What annoyed him the most was that these pets were idle and just ate, drank and played, but their progress in understanding the field continued to increase.
Especially the Dream Maker, this guy is still gaining weight even when he is sleeping!
"It was just a test, just a test..."
Xia Zhi kept comforting himself.
Previously, he really wanted to see how much trash he was.
Obviously, it's much worse than expected.
Don’t think that there is still hope for a breakthrough just because the profit has doubled in half a day. The difficulty of understanding the law is increasing linearly.
Now we have added 0.00001 in the afternoon, and maybe we can only add another 0.00001 tomorrow.
According to this calculation, even if he is given another ten thousand years, it may not be enough.
And there is another point, that is, his current comprehension ability is still under the bonus of "Jing Yuan Gong".
[Essence Power: A skill that can be practiced up to nine levels, currently at the ninth level. It can make one's own energy more refined, increase mental strength and energy recovery speed, and greatly enhance energy control. While practicing, one will automatically gain experience and increase their level.
Note: When the technique is cultivated to the highest level, the ability to comprehend the principles will be slightly enhanced.]
I don't know if it's because my aptitude is too poor, but my comprehension speed is still lagging behind.
Fortunately, it was just a test before, and he will get serious next.
Xia Zhi stretched out his palm, and a purple round bead slowly flew out from his palm, hovering in the air, emitting a unique purple light.
This is the artifact stolen from the Sword Clan, the Stripper.
[Stripper: A low-level artifact. When used, it can forcibly remove any status from the opponent and increase the speed of understanding the laws. It consumes 1 point of divine power, or a certain amount of mana and health points instead. The cooldown is 24 hours. Maintaining the understanding of the laws requires a large amount of mana and the corresponding materials. The higher the grade of the materials, the better the understanding effect. Limitation: Only effective against targets of lower or equal artifact quality.]
Because this artifact has too many limitations, he has not used it for a long time. However, this artifact happens to have another effect, which is to improve the aptitude for understanding the laws.
He took out some low-level materials, and after using the 'Stripper', the materials turned into dust, which then turned into energy and merged into the artifact.
At the same time, Xia Zhi felt that his brain was working much better.
He hadn't felt it before because he hadn't reached the minimum requirement to comprehend the law, but now he has gained new insights into the law just now.
Looking at his data panel, he saw that there was indeed another point added.
"Yes, it really works!"
Xia Zhi's face was full of joy.
The artifact is worthy of being an artifact, it is powerful!
It’s just that the materials consumed are a bit disappointing. Although the materials just taken out are not of high level, there are dozens of them, but they only lasted for a few minutes.
"Damn, you're just a low-end guy and you're already like this, then what about the 'Book of Acquisition'..."
Thinking of this, Xia Zhi stretched out his hand again, and a black stone book slowly appeared in his hand.
