This Damned Thirst for Survival

It\'s not that they didn\'t want Jiang Luo to leave Tian Shifu; after all, Feng Li\'s control over Jiang Luo was so strict that even they smacked their lips. They just didn\'t expect Jiang Luo to leave Tian Shifu so lightly.

Feng Li is the youngest Master of Heaven ever to be born and is now the number one person in the world of metaphysics. It is difficult for anyone to meet Feng Li, let alone get involved with him. The title "Feng Tian Shi\'s personal disciple" is a prestigious one in the field, and one can easily use it to get rich and famous.

As a result, Jiang Luo chose to leave so easily.

Jiang Luo didn\'t say much about the reason he left, but not knowing what Officer Lin had brainstormed, he shook Jiang Luo\'s hand and was so moved that he was on the verge of tears, choking back a sob, "Jiang, don\'t worry, the country will definitely be your new reliance, just let go of it, the country will definitely not let you have worries."

Jiang Luo trusts the institutions established by the state. An institution is at its most vibrant when it is born, and the upper echelons of metaphysical corruption have reached their final moment of madness, like the darkness before the dawn.

A better outcome than the metaphysical community allowing Chi You to perish would be for the state to take over the management.

Jiang Luo can\'t help but be a little bit impressed.

He and Chi You were born to hate each other.

Even if they share the same aim of destroying the occult world, they are on opposite sides of the fence. He chooses to replace the old system with new rules, Chi You is annihilating everything with destruction.

Quite interesting.

Jiang Luo really thinks so, and this kind of relationship, mixed with deceit and mutual peculation but with the most intimate aspects, is like a poisonous addiction.

After agreeing to a general protocol with Officer Lin, he hurriedly prepared to leave, saying, "We still have to arrest the Qi and Chi clansmen, every piece of information about Qi Yuan and Chi Zhongye\'s self-destruction has been recorded, and we have to verify them one by one. Oh, and that fellow student of yours, Qi Ye, he has also been taken away from us, after all, he is also a member of the Qi family and we don\'t know if he is innocent. When we have finished investigating him carefully and established his innocence, we will release him soon, so you need not worry."

Qi Ye had become a muddle since watching his father die in front of him. Ge Zhu sighed softly, "He was a poor man too."

Jiang Luo, however, thinks of his grandfather Chi You, whose spirit was taken by Qi Yuan.

Pathetic?

Perhaps.

But Jiang Luo knows that who hasn\'t been through a few painful events.

Once the trial was over, the New Year would be celebrated in ten days. To celebrate, Lu Youyi treated them to a trip to a restaurant that evening.

Drinking a little wine and eating a little food. Jiang Luo is lazily smothered by the heat, and by now, without the threat of the Qi and Chi families, his spirits are already partly drunk.

Back at the accommodation, the group had a good night\'s sleep. At eight o\'clock the next morning, the group went shopping for Chinese New Year goods.

Lu Youyi\'s parents, who are always on business abroad, decided to spend New Year\'s Eve abroad this year, but Lu Youyi refused when they called to inform him that he was going abroad.

Fortunately, Lu Youyi\'s parents were not too keen on the taste of New Year, so they gave Lu Youyi a large sum of money to wish him a happy New Year and left him alone.

Ge Zhu was so envious that she shed two lines of tears.

Of the eight, Ge Zhu and Wen Renlian, Ye Xun and Jiang Luo have nowhere else to go and will stay with Lu Youyi for the New Year. Kuang Zheng is going home for a reunion dinner, so he can come and spend time with them afterwards. Sai Liaoer has already spent Christmas abroad and will be with them in the New Year, so Zhuo Zhongqiu is the only heir to a large family who will be too busy to attend to all sorts of social engagements.

Zhuo Zhongqiu is also busy and is increasingly interested in the olive branch offered by his country.

As the years pass by, Jiang Luo hides in his bedroom and learns how to use the character spirits. Chinese characters have a long and storied history, and the spirit that emerges from them is even more powerful. Jiang Luo cannot describe what it looks like or how it is shaped, but he can feel its vast power like the sea, and its mature and powerful calmness.

It is inconceivable that such a powerful word spirit and Jiang Luo have chosen each other.

But as his contact with the spirits deepened, Jiang Luo understood why the spirits had chosen him. It was because the air in him was one of the strongest among those who had learnt the art of psionics, and he was also one of the rare people who had thought about the existence of spirits in Chinese characters. The spirit had existed for a thousand years without being perceived, and it was also lonely and isolated, so when Jiang Luo gave it a try, the spirit immediately responded to him.

After spending ten days familiarising himself with the word spirit, Jiang Luo had to admit that there are two sides to everything.

The more powerful a word is, the more air Jiang Luo has to give to use it. The more powerful a character is, the more air Jiang Luo has to give to use it. And the use of a character depends on the person to whom the character is addressed.

Although Jiang Luo easily used the word \'honest\' for Qi Yuan and Chi Zhongye, it was only because Qi Yuan and Chi Zhongye were not very powerful and the word \'honest\' was not very harmful. The word "honest" is not very harmful.

If he had wanted to use a stronger word, such as "death", which deprives someone of life, he would have struggled more. It is easier to take the life of a blade of grass than that of an animal, and it is easier to take the life of an animal than that of a human being. Although psychic magic is strong, it is not so strong that it can kill indiscriminately. Jiang Luo can infer from this that the one who obtained the spirit of speech definitely had limits as well.

This is actually a good thing, because Jiang Luo has a vague feeling that it is the predestined who have obtained the spirit of speech.

As the New Year draws nearer, the streets are filled with the smell of fireworks and firecrackers. Jiang Luo and Ge Zhu made an appointment to go to Jokhang Temple after New Year\'s Eve and leisurely waited for this day of the New Year.

The young people\'s way of celebrating New Year is very different from that of their elders. Lu Youyi\'s flat was full of large bottles of drinks and snacks, and the fridge was filled with all kinds of ingredients.

Jiang Luo, who is an excellent chef, has a few people working for him, and when the ingredients are almost ready, he brings them into the living room to watch the dumplings on TV.

Lu Youyi has switched the TV to Internet gaming mode and is playing a game with Ge Zhu. Jiang Luo pats the flour on his hands and comes over to find them both working, when he sees them assigning teammates and about to start a game.

Two of the opponents\' ids stand out, one is "My father" and the other is "I\'ll kill you with the net".

It just sounds very schoolboyish.

Lu Youyi confidently told Ge Zhu, "I\'ll take you to the air, and I\'ll definitely beat a group of primary school students on the opposite side to the ground."

Ge Zhu, a newcomer to the game, nodded solemnly as he gripped the handle nervously.

When the game started, Lu Youyi completely forgot to take Ge Zhu on a flight, and he was so high that he easily took out the little student called "Follow the net to kill you", and when he looked back, he saw that Ge Zhu was being beaten by "my father". Ge Zhu was being beaten up by "my father" over and over again.

After Ge Zhu was once again killed back at the resurrection point, even the best of tempers were going crazy as he gritted his teeth and said, " Lu Youyi, kill this \'I Nimdad\' first! I suspect there\'s something wrong with this guy and he\'s targeting me."

Lu Youyi nodded under pressure.

He was actually embarrassed to bully the little student on the other side, but looking at his brother\'s pitiful appearance of being killed, Lu Youyi rolled up his sleeves and went on, but before he went on, he sent a gentle reminder to "Follow the net to kill you": [Little student, don\'t fight hard with your brother, my brother doesn\'t want to bully Little student, I\'ll go beat up your teammates first, you hide first.

In an unoccupied internet cafe.

When he saw this sentence, "Follow the Internet to kill you", who had been beaten up by Lu Youyi, could not hold back his anger.

"With a click, the mouse crushed into pieces in his hands.

The Beaver\'s face was expressionless, his breathing slightly sharpened by anger, his fingers creaking, his sharp, pointed claws scoring several deep marks on the computer desk where the beast had scratched.

"I will kill, him," the sound of his teeth clacking grimly as the Beaver said, word for word, "I will kill this human called \'With One But Without One\'!"

Ge Wuchen, who was looking intently at the computer screen, said lazily, "Flower Beaver, why are you bothering with humans? I\'ve already killed \'Qingfeng Daoist\' several times, so I\'m helping you get back."

He sneered and muttered to himself, "Daoist of the Clear Wind? I for one hate Taoists, don\'t blame me for killing you, blame you for taking a name that makes people angry."

After taking a look at the number of deaths of "Qingfeng Daoist", he felt a little more comfortable after seeing a number of deaths that was comparable to his. But he couldn\'t resist the urge to kill, so he tapped his keyboard and typed a line.

[Down the Net to kill you: with one but without the other, tell me where your address is.]

Lu Youyi, who took the time to look at the message on his way to fight the monsters: "?"

He wondered, "This schoolboy isn\'t really going to ask for my address and then crawl down the internet cable and kill me, is he?"

Jiang Luo, who was standing and watching the play, was happy, "I guess he\'s still a Form 2 kid."

Lu Youyi nodded approvingly.

Lu Youyi ignored this comment and went straight to the output of "my father". Ge Zhu, on the other hand, had a hard time stopping "Follow the net to kill you" to prevent this person from assisting "My Nim-Dad" and disturbing Lu Youyi.

Solely because he and his opponent were playing at a similar level, it was surprising to see the two of them playing at a sort of flagging level.

The frown on Hua Beaver\'s face deepened, but his eyes flashed with pleasure. He was slowly but carefully controlling the game character\'s clumsy dodging and parrying, and was fighting with "Qingfeng Daoist" when a voice suddenly sounded beside him, "Hua Beaver, it\'s been so long, why is your level still so rubbish?"

With a twitch of his fingers, he was killed by the "Qingfeng Daoist". As he watched the screen go dark, his hands shook with anger and his pressure was so low that it was frightening.

Liao Si rubbed his nose and gloated, "Oh, I\'m sorry I disturbed you."
