Esper X Family – Chapter 517 – Surprised, Little Fu Qi?

Perhaps it was because Ye Yao could clearly distinguish between the original world and the parallel one.

Or perhaps it was because her “family” in the parallel world knew nothing and lacked any foundation of familial affection.

Ye Yao felt no psychological burden in implementing her scheme.

She considered it a step toward saving the world.

To feed the System and gain the means to suppress the world-destroying ability, she would probably need a massive number of attribute points!

Ye Yao didn’t like leaving trouble for so-called future generations.

Nor was she willing to trust in the wisdom of those who came after her.

Perhaps with the System’s help, she could live a relatively stable life, undisturbed by the world-destroying ability.

But what about after her death?

The world-destroying ability might find its next unlucky host.

The Found Family System might not follow.

Ultimately, every trace of Ye Yao would still turn into nothing.

In short, she refused to accept that outcome!

She would simply have to deal with the world-destroying ability once and for all within her lifetime!

At the very least, they would live and die together!

Even if Ye Yao might eventually meet her end, the world-destroying ability would have to go down with her.

Therefore, a huge amount of attribute points was necessary!

For now, let the parallel world’s uncle suffer a bit. Let Ye Ge bear the infamy.

Consider it part of the process of saving the world.

At this moment, Ye Ge was portraying herself as the parallel world’s most dangerous “time bomb”.

An unstable world destroyer with no apparent moral boundaries, yet leaning toward humanity in some way.

Ye Ge wouldn’t randomly cause destruction, casually kill anyone, nor would she use actions to prove the truth of her words.

All she needed was to guide them step by step.

Fu Qi’s expression was extremely grim, his mood heavier than ever before.

“Why are you doing this?”

If it was a joke, it was far too extreme.

If an ordinary child had said such a thing, Fu Qi would have dismissed it as adolescent delusion.

But the person uttering these words was the very powerhouse who had just destroyed the Sentinel Organization, someone whose strength might even surpass his own and Lou Wei’s.

The sense of truth in her words was undeniable!

Of course, Ye Ge wasn’t exactly lying either.

As a bearer of a world-destroying ability, she inherently possessed the potential to destroy the world.

Saying it out loud now was merely stealing Tu Sheng’s job.

“No reason. Consider it a notice. This is the meaning of my existence. If you want to stop me, then kill me at all costs.”

There was no emotional fluctuation in Ye Ge’s voice.

“…”

This world’s Fu Qi still possessed exceptional emotional management skills.

He took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the urge to strike.

This development was far too sudden.

A mysterious, unfathomably strong figure had suddenly descended and declared that she would destroy the world.

Even the Prophet had never predicted the existence of such an entity!

And this woman called “Ye Ge” gave off a very subtle feeling.

Her words might be true, yet they sharply contradicted her actions.

If she was truly that extreme, why waste time with all this talk?

With such overwhelming power, if she wanted to do something, she could just do it.

The strong were simply that unreasonable. Any morality or law could be trampled underfoot.

Especially powerhouses at their level.

Yet, Ye Ge had come to the nation’s largest Esper organization and delivered a cryptic notice.

An apocalypse announcement, seemingly meant to provoke the Countermeasures Bureau into trying to kill her.

Fu Qi couldn’t help but recall certain cases.

People who truly want to jump to their deaths don’t hesitate on the edge. Hesitation shows that they still have thoughts of turning back.

And Ye Ge, who had issued a world-destroying notice but hadn’t acted immediately, suggested that she might not actually want to destroy the world. Perhaps she was forced into it somehow.

Maybe she couldn’t control herself and needed others’ help to stop her own actions.

Was that the meaning?

Fu Qi wasn’t sure.

Nor did he have the boldness to jump to conclusions.

He adhered to the principle of avoiding confrontation whenever possible.

“If you’re truly in a difficult position, the Countermeasures Bureau will do everything it can to help. We don’t want to be enemies with you.”

Given a choice, who would willingly go to extremes?

This world’s Fu Qi remained a representative figure of the conservative faction.

Ye Ge felt very dangerous, like an innate Sequence Esper who had gone out of control.

If she truly had second thoughts, the Bureau could offer their maximum assistance.

Why couldn’t they cooperate?

Ye Yao couldn’t help but admire this world’s Fu Qi.

Even under such immense pressure, he hadn’t lashed out.

And this was without any apparent familial relationship between them.

Restraining that instinctive response to a threat was truly remarkable.

Unfortunately, Ye Ge wouldn’t take that path.

She needed a reason to kidnap people away!

Ye Ge extended a hand toward Fu Qi, like the starting stance of a killing move.

The next moment, Fu Qi felt the breath of death.

“Hesitation leads to defeat.”

At that instant, the Director of the Countermeasures Bureau finally realized that this was truly an uncontrollable time bomb!

He wouldn’t hesitate anymore.

The instinct for survival and the weight of responsibility drove him to unleash a full-power spatial slash!

There was no Form Skill enhancement, just a pure zero-frame slash!

At that same moment, a fleeting, almost relaxed thought crossed Fu Qi’s mind.

If he could cut her down here, would that mean resolving a crisis that threatened the entire world?

That wouldn’t be so bad.

His technique had always been considered a legendary, cheat-like ability in the Esper world.

Unblockable, unreactable.

Against a mortal body, a hit meant certain death.

The invisible slash flashed soundlessly, cleaving through the clouds as if parting them to reveal the sun.

But Fu Qi didn’t see a severed body.

His target had vanished without a trace.

“What!?”

Gone!

She reacted to it!

How is that possible?

Even Lou Wei might not react in time. At best, he would rely on an “elementalization” technique to tank it.

But Ye Ge had shifted her position the very instant Fu Qi launched his spatial slash!

She could teleport silently under the nose of a spatial Esper?

“Where are you looking?”

A cold voice reached his ears. Fu Qi broke out in goosebumps as he whipped his head around, his eyes wide with disbelief.

There was Ye Ge, floating upside down behind him, her relaxed demeanor as if she were merely playing with the world.

Truth be told, Ye Yao felt a touch of nostalgia.

Her usually disappointing uncle had finally shown some backbone for once.

In the original world, Fu Qi had displayed unprecedented courage only when “Tong Yao” descended.

When Ye Ge appeared later, he didn’t even entertain the thought of fighting.

Now, the parallel world’s Fu Qi had finally unleashed that familiar spatial slash again.

The Ye Yao who had just freshly built her account would probably have been cut in half by now.

But now…

Surprised, Little Fu Qi? I can react to your spatial slash!

“Unfortunately, I am invincible. Your approach is wrong. The one you should be targeting is not me.”

Fu Qi tried to act.

But a massive force slammed into him. It was impossible to block, and he didn’t even have enough time to evade using spatial means.

It was a kind of “silence” on the mental level!

BOOM!!!

The Strongest in History, Fu Qi, plummeted to the ground!

Some areas in the neighborhood are being renovated, and the construction noise is so loud that I can’t sleep until noon anymore.
