Chapter 240
She rushed to Zelan to attend class with Lucia, determined to memorize everything about the "Gold Medal Killer" before entering the tower, planning to digest the knowledge slowly once inside.
Lucia, keenly aware of Yu Xunge's recent study habits, noticed a change. In the past, Yu Xunge would ask questions whenever she didn’t understand something, reluctant to learn the "Gold Medal Killer" in advance. She would always try to ask as many follow-up questions as possible during class. But recently, she had shifted to rote memorization.
So, Lucia began to fish for information during class. Every time she got halfway through discussing the "Gold Medal Killer," she would start introducing her own potions and gemstones, detailing their effects, costs, and selling prices, as well as how long it took certain highly talented alchemists to learn them.
Sometimes, when Yu Xunge was in class with Lucia, she would find herself absentmindedly tugging at her hair, dazed and confused, as if she had stumbled into a high-profile product launch instead of a lesson.
Like right now...
—“This 'Second-rate Fool' is my masterpiece! It brings me at least fifty thousand gold a year! And each bottle costs only 527 gold! Do you know what its effect is?! You can’t even begin to imagine!”
Yu Xunge: “…” Well, if you don’t say it, how can she even imagine it? The anticipation is already building up; come on, just tell us!
Zelan's top preschool teacher, Lucia, instantly transformed into Zelan's top salesperson.
...
The members of the tower-climbing team almost always attended class on time, except for Su Yitong, who sometimes missed a few sessions. Later, Zhao Shuying joked with her that this young lady was probably off looking for trouble with Yu Xunhuan, clearly worried that once she entered the tower, she might forget to teach Yu Xunhuan a lesson.
Yu Xunge understood that feeling; sometimes they were just too magnanimous, and that wasn’t good.
—“Originally, our people were wondering if Heifei would protect your brother. After all, your brother is his pet. Even Su Yitong was testing the waters at first, but later found out that Heifei didn’t care about your brother at all, as long as he wasn’t disturbed while bathing himself.”
When Zhao Shuying said this, her tone was strange, showing no hint of “If your family is being bullied, you should help them out.” Instead, she had a purely spectator's attitude.
Yu Xunge sighed inwardly. This person had probably realized that her feelings for Yu Xunhuan weren’t as deep as she had previously shown. Perhaps many had already noticed.
She was always busy with her own matters; she hadn’t invested time or money.
Perhaps even Yu Xunhuan himself was starting to doubt, but he was her only hope now. If there was anyone in the world who could balance Heifei, and avenge him after his death, that person could only be Yu Xunge...
At least she wasn’t like Yi Qiuguo and Yu Qingshan, whose every word of concern dripped with insincerity. Anyone could see their gloating smiles through their words. Yu Qingshan hated this son, and Yi Qiuguo certainly wouldn’t like him either. Although she was indifferent to the third child, the effects of the "Law of the Jungle" were too terrifying; Yu Xunhuan had hurt her...
Yu Xunge was like a rope hanging halfway down a well. Yu Xunhuan, trapped at the bottom, could see her if he looked up. He couldn’t reach her, couldn’t grasp her, but as long as the rope was there, it brought him endless hope. He dared not lose faith.
**Chapter 311: There Are Cameras**
But Yu Xunge no longer wanted to, nor did she have any need to pretend.
She didn’t need to continue to put herself in a difficult position for Yu Xunhuan.
She even struggled to remember why she had needed Yu Xunhuan’s trust in the first place.
Oh, back then she was too weak, worried he might turn the tables, worried he might once again unite the Su, Liang, and Han families. She wanted to monitor him constantly, to ensure he could be contracted by Heifei during the incident with the otherworldly beast, to use the Food God skill to transfer others' negative emotions onto herself...
Just like when she had once obtained dozens of blue equipment pieces in one go, which seemed like a fortune to her. Back then, Yu Xunhuan, Su Yitong, and others were also towering figures in her eyes.
But those considerations began to fade gradually after she obtained the "One-Person Party."
Now, every day on her way to and from school in Zelan, she would tirelessly use "I Want to Improve So Much" on the other races she brushed past. Although most of what she gained was equipment, her average of the four main attributes had already surpassed 115.
**Yu Xunge** Level 15
**Health Points**: 8500/8500
**Mana Points**: 7725/7725
**Strength**: 115
**Constitution**: 110
**Intelligence**: 113
**Agility**: 135
**Points to Allocate**: 32
Yu Xunge allocated the 2 attribute points she received from listening to the Hope Hymn on November 3 and December 4, along with the 30 points gained from leveling up the Killing Miya to her Agility, pushing it to 155.
This was still without wearing any equipment. Once she donned her gear, she could take down Tulan in five minutes without relying on any combat tricks—just pure crushing power.
The skill crystals she obtained today made her no longer underestimate Dinghai—though she had never truly underestimated them. But she thought, even if the whole world knew she wouldn’t care about Yu Xunhuan’s life or death, so what?
Would everyone really blame her for not taking care of her brother just because of Yu Xunhuan?
Dinghai wasn’t that enthusiastic, and neither was this world.
Didn’t anyone notice something was off in her past life? But no one stood up for her, saying Yu Xunhuan hadn’t spoken for her.
Yu Xunge smiled and shrugged, “I can’t help much. Our parents are in B City and won’t be coming back. What can I do?”
Zhao Shuying smiled too, then casually changed the subject.
On December 11, Yu Xunge petted the cat nest one last time and found two peace charms, the most common and ordinary kind on the market, but made from cat fur.
**Cat Peace Charm**: Hoping that the humans and little dragons they love the most can return home safely.
It had no effect, just an ordinary item, but Yu Xunge hung the peace charm around her neck, right next to her pocket watch, and sewed the one from Tulan onto her little cloak.
Finally, she petted each cat in the backyard and put away the cat nest.
At 11 PM on December 12, the nine members of the tower-climbing team and Yu Xunge stood in front of the teleportation portal inside the Special Affairs Bureau. There were only the ten of them, no leaders, no high-ranking officials from Dinghai, not even Li Changying.
It wasn’t that they didn’t take it seriously; rather, it was because they took it too seriously.
Everyone standing here, whether willingly contributing for Blue Star or seizing the opportunity to make a name for themselves, was there voluntarily. They weren’t “assigned” a task they had to undertake, so they didn’t need anyone to thank them from a position of authority. The only ones qualified to thank them were not individuals.
Most importantly, in an era where power was paramount, people no longer revered authority.
A few people from Dinghai gradually formed a circle, while Yu Xunge, Su Yitong, and Liang Yuchuan stood outside, not joining them.
Yu Xunge had no interest in mingling with them for Dinghai’s team-building games, and Su Yitong and Liang Yuchuan clearly felt the same. Tulan was wherever Yu Xunge was.
But then Zhao Shuying suddenly stepped out from the crowd, grabbed a small item from a corner, and as she passed by Yu Xunge and the others, she silently mouthed a few words using ventriloquism: “There are cameras.”
Yu Xunge & Su Yitong: “…”
The two exchanged a glance, and Yu Xunge immediately stepped forward to follow Zhao Shuying toward the Dinghai group, remembering everything—she remembered it all. This was Huaxia.
Su Yitong silently followed.
After a moment of hesitation, Liang Yuchuan, who had been in a daze, also slid over.
The ten of them formed a circle, and it was unclear who extended the first hand, but soon hands were piling on top of each other in a classic manner.
With the atmosphere reaching this point, Yu Xunge also reached out to join in.
After stacking, she realized she was once again sandwiched between Su Yitong and Liang Yuchuan, tightly squeezed.
Rather than blame herself, she might as well complain about others… Yu Xunge silently shouted in her heart, You two just have to stick together with someone named Yu, don’t you?! So annoying!
Wait, why is it getting tighter and tighter?!
Looking down, she saw Pipilong’s claws pushing Liang Yuchuan’s hand down.
Noticing Yu Xunge looking at her, Tulan looked up and gave her a shy smile.
Yu Xunge: My fists are clenched… Why is this dragon cub getting more and more crooked?!
Just past midnight on December 13, the group used the skill crystals they had received earlier.
**I’m Not Human Anymore** (S-Rank): Can transform into an animal; no living being can see through your thoughts and soul. Requires a few hairs from the animal to use, lasts for 7 natural days, with no cooldown. You can still use equipment, items, and skills while transformed.
**Fake ID** (A-Rank): After using this skill, you can modify your panel information. For 7 natural days, no skills can see through your disguise, and no one can see your true information. After the skill effect ends, you will enter a "Situation Occurred" state, and for the next 30 natural days, your true information cannot be modified by any means.
**Chapter 45: Tower - Entering the Tower**
The best disguise target for **I’m Not Human Anymore** is naturally the Fenglian tribe. With the current attributes of players and their control over their bodies, transforming into a meerkat wouldn’t affect combat.
