Esper X Family – Chapter 676 – About to “Prove the Dao”!

After stroking White Comet’s belly, Ye Yao contentedly shifted her attention to the parallel world.

Compared to the space war that had just ended in the original world, the parallel world was peaceful and quiet.

Logically speaking, this world also had a Watcher civilization, and with a little scheming, she could’ve lured the Parallel Expedition Fleet over as well.

But Ye Yao couldn’t be bothered to experience that again.

Since this parallel world didn’t even have a Sanctuary, it meant that the Watchers’ Evolutionary Divine Machine hadn’t deduced anything related to this either.

The existence of the fission body felt like it was “beyond the Three Realms, not within the Five Elements”. In simple terms, it simply couldn’t be targeted.

Ye Yao had already confirmed this with Parallel Tu Sheng.

The distant Watcher Civilization hadn’t deduced the so-called source of calamity yet.

The world line had completely shifted.

Only Ye Yao’s main body was the origin of all cause and effect.

Of course, if the chance arose in the future, it wouldn’t hurt to deal with the problem of the parallel Watcher civilization as a side task.

But at the very least, it would have to wait until after she advanced to S-rank.

This time, Ye Yao just wanted to notify her family in the parallel world, get them packed up, and bring them to the original world for the final battle.

Why? Because she needed a bunch of people to gang up on the Vengeful Spirits!

Right now, Ye Yao was grandly patrolling her territory in the parallel world, eventually arriving at the workplace of Parallel Fu Qi and Parallel Lou Wei.

“Father, Uncle, I need your help. Next, I’ll need you to go to another world, and I want to take this chance to officially step into true S-rank.”

Parallel Lou Wei and Parallel Fu Qi exchanged a glance. Sensing the formality in Ye Yao’s tone, they nodded solemnly.

“Alright. If you need anything, just command us.”

Although not long ago, the magical girl spin-off that Ye Yao had brought over had once again dealt a massive blow to their reputations.

That didn’t diminish how important she was to them.

Having synchronized with their counterparts’ memories, they could see things more clearly as outsiders and had long since vaguely sensed that Ye Yao was hiding deeper secrets.

Many of her antics that seemed like mere stunts clearly had a purpose behind them.

If this could help Ye Yao resolve the hidden danger of world-destruction, even if they were tricked into filming another big movie, they wouldn’t hesitate.

After all, this was a necessary sacrifice!

After that, Ye Yao went to find Parallel Sequence Zero.

Ignoring Parallel Xia Lian, who was trying to rub her face against hers, Ye Yao looked at the others and stated an important matter.

“I want to become a Kami!”

“Isn’t White Catty already a God Catty?”

Parallel Xia Lian asked in confusion.

Ye Yao refuted, “That’s different. I mean a real Kami, a true S-rank! To be serious, my current mental power is only 1,000, making me the lowest among the Sequence Zero!”

Even Parallel Fang Tang had higher mental power than her.

One could say that her progress was rapid.

Among all her family members, Ye Yao’s base mental power was the absolute lowest.

Ye Yao could only cry out: “I’m so nerfed”.

Was there anyone more nerfed than her?

She urgently needed to power up and officially crawl out of the bottom rankings!

Everyone exchanged looks, still feeling a sense of unreality.

Thinking back to all the things Ye Yao had done, and then looking at her pitiful base mental power, it really did feel absurd.

This further proved just how broken her world-destroying ability was.

With only a thousand mental power, she could already devastate heaven and earth. It was so overpowered it was ridiculous.

What would happen if she advanced to S-rank?

“It’s okay, small is also cute. Even with only a thousand mental power, White Catty is still the world’s strongest kitty!”

“Get lost, go cool off somewhere! I can’t reason with you, weakling.”

Ye Yao pushed Parallel Xia Lian’s face away in disgust.

“Anyway, this will be a great battle! Cubic Sugar, go all out and sugar those Vengeful Spirits to death!”

“Ooh!”

Parallel Fang Tang didn’t really understand, but since Ye Yao called her name, cheering was enough!

Ye Yao’s mobilization lasted several days.

Its efficiency was terribly low.

But there wasn’t much urgency anyway, so being a little casual didn’t matter.

Until today, Ye Yao had finished mobilizing all her family members from both the original and parallel worlds.

All she needed was to find a suitable time to gather everyone and go elbow those “Avengers”.

Ye Yao felt that she could do a little livestreaming before the battle started.

“Kids, it’s been a few days since I last streamed. Miss me?”

A pleasant voice echoed through the livestream room.

Even without a stream announcement, the audience swarmed in like sharks drawn to blood.

“Streamer, we missed you.”

“What good stuff are you bringing us this time?”

“Could it be… some new inside scoop?”

“Ah, Mommy’s voice sounds so nice~”

The barrage of comments scrolled wildly.

Soon, Xing Lan popped up and hissed at the chat: “Only I can call her Mom!”

To this day, Xing Lan often spoke in the livestream, and even Ye Yao’s stream avatar had a lively 2D little fat bird added to it.

Ye Yao claimed it was a mysterious coo-coo bird entrusted to her by a friend.

The chat responded with the usual “we know what you mean”, completely unfazed by Xing Lan’s presence.

Moreover, Xing Lan’s presence brought a crosstalk-like atmosphere to the stream, keeping the entertainment value at its peak.

But more often than not, Xing Lan was just a character who hissed at the chat.

Phrases like “don’t call her master”, “don’t call her mommy”, and “don’t call her baby”, all these affectionate yet outrageous nicknames could only be used exclusively by Xing Lan.

This possessiveness and fierce but cute tone only amused the viewers.

However, Xing Lan’s debut battle had already left a deep impression on everyone.

Even though her usual “mascot” form seemed harmless, no one dared to casually tease this fierce little fat bird after that, lest they get beaten through the internet.

That was just too terrifying.

Ye Yao rubbed the face of the girl in her arms, physically silencing her, because she wanted to share some small things.

Although the Countermeasures Bureau hadn’t released any intelligence on the Vengeful Spirit, this time she could give a little explanation.

“I don’t know if you all still remember the beginning of the ’Great Awakening’ era. Our great ‘Tong Yao’ was supposedly forced to reveal her power by a very strong enemy, thus incidentally ushering in a new era.”

As usual, Ye Yao praised herself under a different identity while further introducing the origin of the Vengeful Spirit, giving everyone a general idea.

“According to rumors, that was the remnant of an alien civilization, named the Vengeful Spirit. It came across the void seeking the world-destroying power, had already engraved vengeance into its instinct, had no reason, and only wanted revenge for the thrill of it. A friend of mine has been deeply troubled by them.”

Ye Yao sighed softly.

“But my friend decided to put an end to this vicious cycle, to clean up all the mess, just to clean up the mess of a certain little fat bird who accidentally caused a huge disaster.”

Xing Lan: “Coo?”

“For my friend, this is undoubtedly a trial. As long as she can cross that trial, she can permanently solve the problem and, incidentally, step into a whole new realm!”

Ye Yao paused briefly.

“In other words, she is about to prove the Dao!”

As soon as these words were spoken, the audience in the livestream room immediately boiled with excitement.

Yeah! So exciting! So thrilling!

To be able to witness such a powerful being “prove the Dao” with their own eyes, even dying would be worth the admission fee!
