Esper X Family – Chapter 295 – Can We Prank Them?

Ye Yao felt that for the Sanctuary to advance its plans so secretly in the Yunited States, it must be due to some cooperation with the local authorities.

Given the nature of those in power in the Yunited States, they were definitely not good people.

If the Sanctuary offered some irresistible benefits, there was a high chance that they would cooperate.

After all, it wasn’t their lives at stake. It was the lives of the common people.

It’s just a matter of losing a few people, and they could find ways to make up for the losses.

It wouldn’t matter how many people died. As long as they could profit, it was a success.

Such people are truly evil!

They were nothing more than beasts wearing human skin.

A heavy-handed approach was necessary!

Right now, Mu Luo and the others were doing exactly that.

With their abilities, they could probably shock the entire Yunited States in just a few days.

Ye Yao wanted to join the fun.

After all, there were traces of the Sanctuary involved.

If Mu Luo and the others encountered the Sanctuary, they might not gain much of an advantage.

Although Old Gu was a natural enemy to such people, what if the enemy had a hidden trump card?

She feared that Old Gu, thinking himself unbeatable in the realm of vanquishing evil, would become overconfident.

Then, he would trigger the principle of “pride goes before a fall” and take a hard hit from the Sanctuary.

At that time, they would be forced to summon the Family Hero to come and save the day.

Ye Yao couldn’t help but imagine how humiliating it would be for those reliable adult men.

After all, they had their own pride.

Treating Ye Yao as a child but needing her to come and save them…

That scene would leave any man speechless.

“A little reminder should be enough.”

Ye Yao planned to give Old Mu and the others a stage to perform freely.

She would be behind the scenes, slacking off while secretly observing everything.

If she truly discovered any members of the Sanctuary coming out to deliver themselves, she wouldn’t directly annihilate them with a single【Myriad Things Fission】.

She had to wait until they couldn’t resist popping out.

Mu Luo and the others would eventually find the mastermind behind it all.

This was the advantage of indiscriminate judgment against evil.

With Gu Wenxin’s special targeting mechanism, anyone who had committed unforgivable crimes couldn’t escape Old Gu’s keen senses.

Ye Yao snapped back to reality, shifting her gaze to An Qi before her.

“By the way, An Qi, if you were given a massive amount of mental power, could you manipulate everyone’s fate?”

After understanding the mechanism of An Qi’s ability, the silver-haired girl came up with many little ideas in her mind.

She just happened to have a somewhat ambiguous skill called “Encouragement”.

If she could bestow forty thousand points of mental power on An Qi, wouldn’t that turn her into a sort of goddess of fate?

Who could remain unaffected under the influence of forty thousand mental power?

At that time, An Qi could manipulate whomever’s fate she wished.

She could cause trouble for anyone she wanted to.

It would be nothing short of a divine skill for pranking!

Ye Yao had already thought of a prank.

That was, to meddle with the fate of a certain mysterious newspaper-reading man, giving his fate line a knot.

Not a dead knot, but a series of small knots.

To see what kind of misfortunes he would end up encountering.

Just thinking about it made Ye Yao excited.

An Qi, however, scratched her head in confusion.

“I’m not really sure…

It’s not absolute.

Sometimes, I can’t control the fate line of people with lower mental power than mine.

The more unique the target’s fate line, the harder it is to manipulate.

For example, with your fate line, Ye Yao, I have almost no chance of manipulating it…”

“Is that so? What’s so special about it?”

Ye Yao began to brainstorm with her clever little brain alongside An Qi to study the ability’s mechanism.

Xia Lian, on the other hand, decided to take the opportunity to dabble in mischief on the side.

Her small hands were a bit mischievous.

Smoothly and skillfully petting the cats.

An Qi pondered deeply: “I think it might be because the things entangled with Ye Yao’s fate are too vast, which makes it difficult to easily stir your fate line.”

“I-Is that so?”

Ye Yao drew in a sharp breath.

That was concerning.

Back when the Countermeasures Bureau said she would destroy the world, Ye Yao would protest that it was slander.

How could a harmless little loli like her possibly destroy the world?

At most, she just had a cheat that was a bit too much.

Her upper limits were maybe a little high.

But her role was to fight for the future. How could it be as exaggerated as destroying the world?

But now, An Qi was saying that her fate was entangled with too many things.

Ye Yao thought about it. She had only formed a few connections with some individuals.

How vast could the things she was entangled with be?

It couldn’t possibly concern the safety of the entire world, could it?

Ye Yao felt a bit of a cold sweat.

Could it be that she really is a World-Destroying Great Demon King?

“ Cough cough ~ An Qi, do you think there’s a possibility that maybe I’m just too powerful in the future, and the strength of my fate has already solidified, which makes you feel like you can’t interfere?”

Ye Yao proposed the hypothesis of “once fixed, always fixed”.

After all, she felt there was some truth to that!

It was all related to fate.

What’s wrong with taking a little loan from the future?

An Qi believed that the uniqueness of her fate line must indeed be due to Ye Yao’s future strength being off the charts!

Rеаⅾ οո ΚαtRеaⅾіոgСаfе

This was what caused her fate to become exceptionally firm upon reflection.

Could the ability of a mere【Weaving Fate】still interfere with the fate of a future empress like her?

That was truly presumptuous!

Of course, it didn’t mean that An Qi was weak.

It was just that the【Weaving Fate】ability wasn’t qualified!

Could a mechanism limited by finite values compare with her infinite values?

Utterly incomparable!

After hearing Ye Yao’s theory, An Qi tilted her head and considered.

“Ye Yao has a point. Perhaps it is indeed as you say.”

After all, she could only interfere by entangling herself with Ye Yao.

To some extent, it might also be because Ye Yao was destined to intersect with her.

Perhaps the fact that she could entangle her fate line was also due to a strong interference from Ye Yao’s fate?

In other words, it wasn’t she who was controlling fate.

It was fate that was controlling her.

At this, Ye Yao drew in another sharp breath.

“If that’s the case, then it’d be a bit difficult to pull pranks…”

What was the Dayun Truck’s level?

A Cybertronian with eighty thousand mental power just by activating Celestial Form!

It might not even be the limit of the Celestial Form.

If she had held on a bit longer at that time, she might have seen the Dayun Truck’s numbers exceed a hundred thousand.

Even that wasn’t the end of it.

Lou Wei hadn’t even activated the other form techniques yet.

Who knows what his final upper limit would be?

If it were said that she, Ye Yao, was a future empress, then Lou Wei would definitely have the title of being a current emperor.

He wouldn’t even need to fight for the future.

Rеαԁ оո ΚаtReаdіnɡСаfе

In that case.

Lou Wei’s fate line would likely be so formidable that even forty thousand mental power couldn’t touch it.

How terrifying!

“Then… can An Qi try to interfere with Xia Lian’s fate line?”

Ye Yao swiftly grabbed Xia Lian’s mischievous hand with her paw.

“Huh? Me? Can we make peace?”

Xia Lian’s little face instantly froze.

What’s going on?

She had just taken advantage of Ye Yao and An Qi’s serious brainstorming to pet a few times.

She hadn’t done anything bad the entire time.

Why was she subjected to torture by the terrifying Sequence 007?

Was it too late to kneel, lick feet, and beg for forgiveness now?

Xia Lian trembled with excitement.

An Qi observed this somewhat perverted big sister carefully.

Perhaps fate kept her away from Xia Lian for a reason.

An Qi shook her head.

“Seems like I can’t. Sister Xia Lian’s fate line is already entangled with Ye Yao’s.”

Ye Yao’s expression changed.

“Xia Lian, I’ve decided to temporarily expel you from Sequence Zero.”

“NOOOOOO!”
