Chapter 200 New Abilities
Infected by Kangxi's emotions, the others in the hall were clearly moved, and when they recalled the scenes they had seen before, they couldn't help but tear up.
Yinreng pursed his lips and slowly said, "So, it really is about me."
"That's all fake!"
Kangxi looked at him seriously, "Baocheng, those things will not become a reality."
“That’s right,” Yinzhi nodded and shouted, “Those contradictory parts are definitely fake; they’re just meant to mislead people.”
Yinzhi looked at the small round ball in Yinreng's hand, his eyes filled with hostility.
"Baocheng, don't keep this. Destroy it!"
"Big brother is right."
Others also agreed.
As if sensing its own danger, the little ball kept spinning, even though it was just a ball. Yet, one could somehow perceive a sense of pleading and weakness in it.
"This is such a dangerous thing, Second Brother, leave it to me."
Yinzhen frowned, becoming even more wary of the little ball that could still express emotions, and was unwilling to let it stay in Yinreng's hand any longer.
Just then, a familiar cry came from the sky.
"Chirp!"
Hurry up!
"quack!"
[I'm like a peacock, never flying, never stopping, never giving myself away... cough cough, how come everyone's here?]
Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu flew in from outside the hall. When Xiao Liu saw so many people, he almost choked.
"Zhang Xiao brought it back?"
"Chirp!"
You can rest assured that I can handle things well!
"Gah!"
What do you mean by "getting things done"? Where does that leave me?
On the surface, it sounded like crying, but the people in the hall looked at each other and confirmed it with their eyes. It seemed that they all suddenly understood what Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu were saying.
Is it due to the influence of this observation system?
Everyone subconsciously looked at the small round ball in Yinreng's hand, which wobbled slightly.
"What's wrong?"
As if sensing something amiss, Yinreng raised his eyes to look at everyone.
"nothing."
Everyone shook their heads, tacitly concealing the situation. Yinzhen, however, was quick-witted and pressed on, "Second Brother, you asked Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu to bring Zhang Xiao back. How are they going to take care of him?"
"Chirp!"
[Don't underestimate the bird.]
"Gah!"
If Xiao Heizi can't do it, can't I?
"Chirp?"
Who are you calling "Little Blackie"?
"Gah—"
What am I supposed to do to you?!
As the two little creatures talked, they started flapping their wings at each other, which to most people just looked like two small animals playing around. But those who understood what they meant fell silent.
Mythical beasts...are they really this lively?
It looks very different from what we saw in the previously deduced fragments. It turns out that all those observation systems were fake!
They breathed a slight sigh of relief, but the gazes of the crowd toward Yinreng were tinged with pity; raising these two children had not been easy for Yinreng either.
Yinreng smiled slightly, but the gentle smile in everyone's eyes carried a hint of reluctance and helplessness. "Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu are quite intelligent. I sent them to inform the guards."
"Alright, stop fooling around, bring Zhang Xiao in."
"Chirp!"
[Oh no, His Highness is getting angry! Let's retreat!]
"Gah!"
[It's all Xiao Heizi's fault. I'll go and tell His Highness right away!]
"Chirp!"
I fly fast, wow!
"Gah!"
Who can't fly!
The two little ones pounced out as if in a race.
Yinreng turned around helplessly, only to meet more than a dozen pairs of curious, scrutinizing eyes. "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, it's nothing."
Everyone denied it, they just hadn't expected Yinreng to be angry like this, they couldn't tell at all, so the divine beast was indeed more perceptive than ordinary people... and so obsequious...
Soon, Kua Dai brought Zhang Xiao in, and was startled to see so many people in the hall.
"Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor, His Highness the Crown Prince, Prince Yu, Prince Gong, and all the other princes..."
The sheer number of times he had to bow had nearly worn out Kua Dai's lips. "Zhang Xiao has already been brought here. When I received the order to go, she was in a daze the whole time."
Kuadai was Tong Guogang's second son, and Orondai had a bad relationship with his father. Ever since he submitted to Yinreng, he had dragged Kuadai into working for Yinreng.
Kua Dai was average in other aspects, but compared to others, he could roughly understand what Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu meant. Because of this talent, he became the new official of Yuqing Palace, specifically responsible for taking orders from Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu.
Therefore, it was he who brought Zhang Xiao here, which did not surprise anyone.
"You may leave now."
"yes."
Withdrawing his gaze from Zhang Xiao, Kangxi waved his hand, and Kua Dai, without asking any further questions, quickly withdrew. As for Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu, they didn't even come in.
"Chirp!"
[Let's go! Let's go!]
"Gah!"
[Quickly retreat, Kuadai!]
Very well, hearing the shouts of Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu outside, everyone understood that they had run away. Was Yinreng's anger really that terrible?
Everyone couldn't help but look at Yinreng; they had never met him before and were quite curious.
“Something’s very wrong with you guys,” Yinreng said speechlessly. How blind must he be to not feel a dozen pairs of eyes staring at him?
"Ahem..." Kangxi coughed lightly, looked at Zhang Xiao, and quickly changed the subject: "What's wrong with her?"
"Yeah, what happened to Zhang Xiao? She wasn't... what you call a devout follower..."
Yinzhen stopped speaking halfway through his sentence.
Yinreng raised an eyebrow. "Observe what? What is Zhang Xiao?"
Yinzhen looked up at the sky, then at his father and brothers, but no one stood up to help him. "I mean, observation! Wasn't she observing Second Brother? How did she become so stupid?"
Zhang Xiao didn't actually become stupid; it's just that her whole being seemed to have left her body, oblivious to everything around her.
"Alright," Yinreng let Yinti off the hook for the time being. Before he could even catch his breath, Yinreng continued, "Whatever it is, just ask Zhang Xiao."
"?!" Everyone was surprised and looked at Yinreng's palm, only to find that he had loosely closed his fingers at some point, and a small ball was bouncing inside, as if afraid of bumping into Yinreng's hand, bouncing very awkwardly.
When Yinreng opened his palm, the little ball paused for a moment, then jumped a few times on Yinreng's palm under everyone's gaze. Realizing that Yinreng did not intend to stop it, it flew to Zhang Xiao's head and cast a soft beam of white light, enveloping her.
At that moment, the familiar mechanical voice rang out again.
[The observer's surroundings have been detected as safe; defense mode deactivated.]
"..." Upon hearing the system's voice, even Yin was starting to doubt the observation system. What was it detecting? Should he open his eyes and look back?
A dozen or so burly men standing like this, and you call that security? Is the system broken?
While Yinreng suspected the system was malfunctioning, the others thought a little deeper. Judging from the little ball's behavior, it seemed more like it was surrendering to Yinreng... Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, regardless of whether this observation system came from later generations, it at least could not pose a threat to Yinreng.
Zhang Xiao's eyes gradually regained their light, countless images flashing through her mind: the system's capture of Kangxi and his entourage's behavior, related fragments from two historical deductions—the sheer volume of information made her frown and feel dizzy. But under the white light, she slowly returned to calm.
After processing everything, Zhang Xiao fully regained consciousness. Looking at the group of people in front of him, he managed to say with difficulty, "It's fake, the time travel is fake..."
[WARNING! Observer has violated observation regulations!]
"It's all fake!"
