Chapter 275: Chapter 274: Deterioration

This series of processes seems complex, but it’s quite simple. Su Changxing completed it without much effort, mainly thanks to the ability of the “Pastoral Spirit.”

The Evil Spirit turned emerald green, the Fog Death Demon Saber turned dark red, and Xu Wenfeng’s soul turned a pale blue.

When the overall hue reached a dark purple, Su Changxing stopped, realizing this was as far as he could go. Any further, and Xu Wenfeng would cease to be Xu Wenfeng.

“Can he come back to life?”

Huang Biao stood by, watching the scene before him, feeling it was absurd. Was Su Changxing performing surgery on a soul?

Su Changxing exhaled and said uncertainly:

“He should be able to, but his status is a bit strange. He might become an idiot, or he might lose his memory.”

Huang Biao looked at Xu Wenfeng on the ground, eyes wide: “You’re not sure either?”

Su Changxing stuck his hands in his pockets, nodded:

“Pretty much, treating a live horse like a dead horse. He was pretty much almost dead. He’s an Extraordinary, so if he can be saved, that’s the best outcome.”

The value of an Extraordinary might be greater than imagined.

Huang Biao remained silent for a moment, seemingly a bit withdrawn: “He became an Extraordinary?”

Su Changxing smiled, affirming: “Yes, at the last moment of death, he became an Extraordinary…”

Sometimes it’s just that unreasonable; Xu Wenfeng hadn’t undergone any enhancement, yet he became an Extraordinary ahead of many others.

Huang Biao licked his lips, saying:

“Tsk tsk tsk, this luck is off the charts, it’s a miracle he’s not dead.”

The Fog Death Demon Saber quieted down completely, as if it had resigned itself, the surrounding mist receded entirely, appearing clean. The elongated blade was covered with black patterns, the edge glinting coldly.

This weapon once destroyed a small country in the Blood Moon World, with death energy spreading for thousands of miles, extremely terrifying, but it was later subdued.

Tao Yi grabbed the Scythe with one hand, and with Su Changxing’s cooperation, devoured its spirituality. Eliminating an Undead was simplest by erasing its spirituality.

Gradually, the dark red on the Scythe faded, losing its original luster, and the restless feeling disappeared.

The Fog Death Demon Saber died.

This Scythe became a part of Tao Yi.

Tao Yi’s power increased tremendously, especially in the Undead state. Her eyes became clearer, and when she looked at Su Changxing, her gaze changed, as if scrutinizing, full of curiosity.

Su Changxing felt that controlling Tao Yi became harder, but since she didn’t resist internally, there was little difference.

Tao Yi seemed to have grown stronger too quickly.

Su Changxing had this fleeting thought but didn’t dwell on it much; Tao Yi was now part of his power, and her increase in strength meant an increase for Su Changxing as well.

Su Changxing waved his hand, and Tao Yi obediently returned to the pendant with the Scythe. She now needed to digest the suddenly enhanced power.

Xu Wenfeng’s breath stabilized, though he hadn’t yet woken up, there were signs he soon would.

Su Changxing raised his eyebrows, noticing a change in the “True Knowledge” information.

[Ghostified Reviver: Tier Nine, Upper Rank, possessing powerful Life Force and capable of transforming Life Force into Spiritual Power to accomplish some incredible feats]

Was this considered a promotion?

Su Changxing hadn’t expected that with his manipulation, Xu Wenfeng’s status would change, like a promotion.

It was unclear if he had become stronger or weaker.

Soon, Xu Wenfeng awoke, a trace of confusion in his eyes: “I came back to life?”

He climbed up from the ground and looked at Su Changxing, respectfully saying: “Thank you, Leader Su, for saving my life… Did I become an Extraordinary?”

He seemed unsure, just feeling very different, and the world before him felt very different too.

Su Changxing nodded, affirming: “Yes, you became an Extraordinary, our seventh gathered person to become one, very good.”

Xu Wenfeng wasn’t as happy as expected, instead, he coldly said:

“Geng Wanchun killed so many people, just dying like that feels too easy for him.”

“Perhaps.”

Su Changxing smiled, nonchalantly saying:

“But the living are more important, and I don’t have time to waste… Do you feel your thoughts are clear now?”

He guessed such changes would certainly have some side effects for Xu Wenfeng.

Xu Wenfeng froze a moment, thoughtfully recalling, then said:

“Very clear, my thoughts have never been this clear, I suppose you could say I’ve become smarter.”

Su Changxing thought for a moment, then said:

“Although I brought you back, there are still some issues with your soul, be careful.”

“Okay.”

Xu Wenfeng nodded earnestly. Although he didn’t really understand what this soul was supposed to mean, he could only listen, just like in class when you can’t understand but still take notes.

As they talked, Su Changxing sensed a faint, almost imperceptible connection emerging, not between him and Xu Wenfeng, but between him and Tao Yi, and Tao Yi and Xu Wenfeng, layered, descending.

Su Changxing was quite satisfied with Xu Wenfeng’s attitude, smiling:

“You don’t need to be nervous, becoming an Extraordinary is a rebirth. You’re part of Team A now, go rest for a bit, get familiar with your abilities. There will be assignments soon.”

Su Changxing’s attitude was gentle yet firm, standing in his position, that was the only attitude, or rather, the best one.

Xu Wenfeng was young, his skin fair, face retaining some youthful innocence, like an obedient child, turned to leave, seemingly having something unsaid.

Su Changxing paused, adding: “If there’s anything you want to understand about being an Extraordinary, you can directly ask Captain Zhu. He’ll be happy to answer your questions.”

Xu Wenfeng’s face was wooden, nodding repeatedly: “Okay, sure.”

Huang Biao leaned against the wall, exhaling and said: “He’s not much older than Zhu Xin Xue, are you sure he’s reliable?”

Su Changxing glanced at him, the corners of his mouth curling up:

“No choice, he’s an Extraordinary. Whether reliable or not is another matter.”

Huang Biao thought of himself as a leader still being an ordinary person, not knowing what to say:

“Sigh, you say if Geng Wanchun was actually an informant for the Security Bureau, how would he report on us?”

“Report truthfully, I suppose.”

Su Changxing thought for a moment, then said: “Certainly, he wouldn’t be the only one, so can only report accurately, unless…”

At that moment, Huang Biao looked at his phone, froze, his face darkened:

“Wang Haisheng’s status deteriorated, just now showing signs of cognitive decline.”

“So soon?”

Su Changxing rubbed his forehead with one hand, saying: “Such a short time and it’s already deteriorating, something’s not right.”
