Chapter 347 I Have a Brilliant Idea
"Eh...Eh!!"
Yu Xunge snapped out of her reverie, suppressing her emotions, and asked, "Hmm? Where were we?"
Feng Ran: "So, if I really have to use so many skills to survive, I'd rather die penniless. At least I'll die rich, and I'll die with a smile on my face."
Yu Xunge: ...
For a moment, she truly believed she had met a kindred spirit.
Tu Lan excitedly pointed at Yu Xunge's orange-red wings: "This doesn't need to be verified, it's absolutely true, she and you are truly on the same wavelength!"
Yu Xunge clenched her fist and pressed it against her brow. This was a difficult situation. She actually believed that Feng Ran was telling the truth. These skills were clearly Feng Ran's favorites. If it were her, she wouldn't agree to this kind of deal either.
If someone told her, "Give me your [Raging Moon], [Soros's Time], [Mind Catcher], plus your S-rank and SS-rank skills, and I'll let you live," she would definitely fight to the death, taking the other person down with her—and then revive herself with her skills to come back and kill them.
Yu Xunge asked, "If I let you continue to live within my wings, will you take over my body, or devour me? Assimilate me?"
Perhaps because there were no other living beings besides her and Tulan here, this information was successfully uttered.
Feng Ran was very frank in the face of a formidable enemy. She explained, "In those moments when our souls resonated, we were already connected. If you don't separate in time, we will gradually merge into one. I will no longer be the pure me, and you will no longer be the original you."
“I don’t want to. Even if my mother and Feng Cang love me as before, I don’t want to. I don’t want to share them with you, so helping you is helping myself.”
No wonder Feng Cang was so generous to her, willing to give her skills. Was he certain that Feng Ran would be resurrected in her body and merge with her? Or was it to move her, to make her yearn for that family like Su Yitong? It's a pity Cheers had a trick up his sleeve…
At that moment, Yu Xunge thought of Su Yitong's plan: "Isn't there any other possibility? For example, one of us could devour the other?"
Feng Ran pondered for a few seconds, his tone uncertain: "Perhaps there is, but I don't know. I died too young. Even if you woke me up, I wouldn't have been awake in the tower for very long, and I wouldn't have had enough time to gather information."
“Is that so…” Yu Xunge weighed the deal in her mind. After a moment, she pointed out the most crucial issue, “How can I be sure that after you are resurrected, the orange-red wings will still remain on me?”
She was willing to risk being possessed by Feng Ran to accept the wings, all for the sake of these wings. If she lost her wings, she wouldn't be able to use the real "Cheers" skill, let alone change and freely control all her lightning-attribute skills.
"Don't worry," Feng Ran said, "I have a brilliant idea that can create a win-win situation for both of us."
"you say."
“You can just kill me here, then resurrect me, and then we can go to the Bird’s Nest to swear our oath as partners. Then you can grow new orange-red wings. That way, my orange-red wings will still be there, and you, my friend, you’ve won.”
"You can go in peace, Tulan! Soul Impact!"
This is terrifying. There are too many problems with marrying Maple Sugar's daughter and Maple Clover's sister, and she won't even go into them. What if Maple Ran unilaterally breaks off the engagement later? Under the pressure from Maple Sugar, the tyrant, that Bird's Nest in Four Seasons City will side with its own tyrant and judge her as the traitor, turning her magnificent wings of light into tiny wings...!
My God... Just imagining it made her break out in a cold sweat; it was an unprecedented terror!
That's so cruel!!
Feng Ran shouted, "King Tu Lan, I have something to say! I have another brilliant idea!"
Tu Lan actually stopped what she was doing, and Yu Xunge thought this skill called "[Your Majesty, I Have Something to Say]" was simply overpowered...
Feng Ran quickly said, "You got the [I said the cotton candy isn't expired, so it isn't expired], right? Help me find the corpse of an oak owl with a divine talent of S-level or higher, it has to be fresh, then you kill me with your soul impact, and then revive me with a skill from the team list, I can use a skill to awaken from that corpse."
That's possible, but Yu Xunge has a question: "Why does a divinely bestowed talent have to be at least S-rank?"
Feng Ran sighed: "I thought you would understand me..."
Yu Xunge: "..."
Tulan: "I want it all, just like you."
Yu Xunge: "Thank you for your kind translation..."
Tu Lan: "You're welcome."
Yu Xunge: "Your spirits can gain the divinely bestowed talents from their corpses just by being reincarnated?"
Feng Ran: "That's right. To put it nicely, our state is called heroic spirits, but it's actually parasitism. It's just that we used to parasitize inside the tower, but now we parasitize you who have climbed the tower. If I merge with you, we can gain each other's divine talents and skills. If you separate me, I can be resurrected from other corpses. I can be resurrected by using the other's still-burning soul as nourishment. However, in that case, I can only inherit the divine talents that the other's soul follows."
No wonder Maple Syrup was willing to give her so many skills inside the tower...
Feng Ran tried to persuade Yu Xunge: "Just because you helped me wholeheartedly, when Feng Tang and Feng Cang see your orange-red wings in the future, even if they know you are not me, they will definitely be more lenient towards you."
Yu Xunge remained silent. This was not enough to sway her. She and Xiang Xiao were adversaries. What good would a little soft-heartedness do? Once interests were involved, this soft-heartedness was useless. Maple Sugar was not someone who acted on emotion. This soft-heartedness was not worth her expending any effort. S-level Xiang Xiaos were not so easy to find.
She thought it, and she said it aloud.
Feng Ran's voice carried a hint of undisguised surprise as she asked, "Don't you have any longing or attachment to our home at all? Don't you have any feelings for Feng Tang, Feng Mu, and Feng Cang? They're so wonderful, don't you... don't you yearn to be close to them?"
Yu Xunge asked in an even more surprised tone than Feng Ran, "Why would I yearn for something false?"
Seeing that Yu Xunge wasn't buying it and that getting something for nothing was impossible, Feng Ran remained silent for a moment before giving a reason that could truly convince Yu Xunge: "As long as you help me find an Oak Owl with an S-rank divine talent to be my new body, in addition to wings, the language of all races, and the complete version of Cheers, I can give you a Cotton Candy skill when I leave the Orange-Red Wings, but it can only be random and I can't control it."
"Deal!" Yu Xunge finally agreed to Feng Ran's request. "But does it have to be Oak Owl?"
Feng Ran exclaimed, "Not an Oak Owl? What's the difference between that and a disability?"
Yu Xunge & Tu Lan: ?
Yu Xunge: "I can cooperate with you, but first you have to teach me how to drink and [be proficient in 666 languages of all races]. Also, don't team up with me."
Feng Ran: "Leaving the team won't work. This is my hope for resurrection. I'm in a soul state. If I'm not on the team list, you can't lock onto me and use the resurrection skill on me at all... So, only you in the whole world can revive me, and only we can use this method."
Yu Xunge believed this. Even after using the refurbishment technique to "see" Feng Ran, she still couldn't lock onto him. She even considered using her thieving skill to see if she could steal anything.
"Do all heroic spirits team up with those who climb the tower?"
"No, the moment you accepted the mission and made contact with me, my [Super Sixth Sense] made me use the forced party skill on you. I don't know about the other Oak Owls, so you can pay first, but you can't leave the party."
Feng Ran's trust was clearly beyond Yu Xunge's expectations. If it were her, she would never have paid first, and wouldn't have even signed a contract.
Yu Xunge's mind went blank: "They trust me that much? They're not on the same wavelength as me." Could there be a trap?
Feng Ran said "Oh": "I have a skill called [Trade Meeting]. After we make a deal, as long as I pay the price, you have to help me, otherwise I can apply for a refund."
Yu Xunge: ...
