Chapter 42: Chapter 42: Be Humble Before You Take Charge!

No, no, no!

I can’t lose my sanity now!

Whether it’s Pai Daxing or Shinjiro, please give me a little more time...

Jiang Xiao’s prayers seemed to have worked, as his consciousness became clear again.

Shi Shi started to brown-nose during the meal...

Just as Jiang Xiao was about to reach for his chopsticks.

"Daddy, let me get you some pickles~"

"Daddy, let me get that for you!"

"Daddy, let me do it, let me help you with your rice!"

Having no choice, Jiang Xiao reluctantly handed his bowl to Shi Shi.

She, tiptoeing, struggled to serve rice for him.

This little girl~

Sun Wei and Bai Yi thought Shi Shi felt guilty for last night’s incident.

But Jiang Xiao had already figured out that she was clearly angling for his secret technique.

Sure enough.

Shi Shi didn’t leave after finishing her meal; she sat on the stool, swinging her little feet, and guarded Jiang Xiao.

Well, just tell her quickly.

Seeing that dad was about to speak, Shi Shi promptly stopped him.

"Shh!"

She then cautiously glanced at the confused-looking Bai Yi and Xi Tang.

"Dad, let’s go somewhere else! You guys better not eavesdrop~"

She wanted to monopolize the affection dad was bestowing upon her~

...

"Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, BABA?"

So this was the ultimate secret!

After receiving it, Shi Shi’s eyes shone as if she had found a treasure, and she planted three kisses on Jiang Xiao’s face.

In the live chat, someone couldn’t help but ask.

[I gotta ask, is this secret really that amazing? Doesn’t Contra feel kind of lame to play?]

[Err, as someone born in the ’90s, the coolest gaming console was the Subor game system. Just to give you an idea, if you mastered this move, you’d be the coolest kid in the village!]

[That’s right, when I was in primary school, anyone who knew this trick instantly became the king of the kids.]

Jiang Xiao took the medicine from Sun Wei and rushed back to the old man’s room again.

Today was also the first step in his plan to explore Analog Horror!

Heh heh~

If Jiang Xiao had even a shred of respect for the old geezer yesterday,

Today, in his heart, this guy was just an obstinate old fart!

As Jiang Xiao entered, the old man’s body couldn’t help but shudder.

He really got smacked numb yesterday...

To be able to smack a stroke patient back into being able to speak clearly,

It must have taken some serious force.

"Oh? Old man, you seem to be quite afraid of me, eh?"

Jiang Xiao moved to his bedside, flexing his knuckles.

The old man panickedly swallowed his saliva and immediately shook his head, indicating he wasn’t afraid.

"Yoo-hoo? You’re actually not afraid of me? Seems like yesterday’s lesson wasn’t enough!"

Jiang Xiao’s hand, large as a fan, made a beeline for the old man’s big face!

’Whack!’

(￣#)з￣)

Same spot, same old taste.

The swelling on the old man’s face, which hadn’t yet gone down, swelled up again.

"So I heard you’re pretty cocky, huh? Bullying your granddaughter just because you’re the grandfather?"

The old patriarch hesitated, trying to decide whether to nod or shake his head to avoid another smack.

Before he could make up his mind, Jiang Xiao’s slap was already on its way.

’Whack!’

(￣ε(#￣)

"I’m bloody asking you something! Don’t play dead!"

The old man nodded, confirming that he did indeed often bully Shi Shi and the others.

’Whack!’

This slap, Jiang Xiao swung with full force, and it sent the old man’s breathing mask flying.

Damn it!

He had chosen wrong again; he should have known to shake his head!

"Do you still plan to bully Shi Shi and the others next time?"

This time, the old man chose quickly, shaking his head, indicating he wouldn’t do it again.

’Whack!’

He didn’t understand why Jiang Xiao hit him again with this slap.

Jiang Xiao grinned.

"Hehehe, I don’t believe you, what are you going to do about it, huh?"

The old man was infuriated, gnashing his teeth—so you came today just to smack me around, huh?

Then why find so many excuses?!

Black mist emanated from the old man’s chest, once again trying to infect Jiang Xiao into something bizarre.

However, the outcome was predictable, nothing more than the old man taking a few more slaps.

At last, Jiang Xiao, with a cold face, even pulled out the old geezer’s oxygen tube.

He thought for a moment~

He yanked out all the messy tubes and whatever else that were attached to him.

Until he watched with his own eyes as the old man drew his last breath...

"Such a display of filial piety..."

Dead?

No, not yet...

Jiang Xiao felt the old man’s vitality slowly start to recover.

’Bang bang bang!’

Jiang Xiao’s fists, as large as clay pots, hammered with all his might into the old man’s heart.

Not stopping until he nearly punched through the latter’s chest.

Downstairs, Sun Wei and Shi Shi stood at the stairway entrance.

The commotion upstairs was so loud it seemed to lift the roof.

They already guessed what Jiang Xiao was doing.

"Mommy? Should we go help Daddy?"

Sun Wei longed to kill that beast too.

But in the end, she took a deep breath, resigned that everyone must follow the rules.

She just couldn’t understand why this "Daddy" was immune to the rules’ infection.

...

Jiang Xiao’s movements and expressions grew increasingly wild, and his body was showered in black blood.

He almost turned the old man into hero mincemeat.

The old man’s remains were scattered all over the room!

Everyone in the live stream felt a chill.

"Oh my God, save us, what’s the difference between Jiang Xiao now and a supernatural being?"

"Madman, no rationality, mental case, unreasonable—I feel he’s even more supernatural than the Supernatural Beings."

"At least Supernatural Beings are bound by the ’rules’ in the Analog Horror, look at Jiang Xiao, he’s completely unrestrained."

"Thank goodness he’s one of Dragon Country’s Chosen Ones, if he really were a supernatural being..."

Jiang Xiao as a supernatural being?

That would leave the Chosen Ones of the world either dead or insane—there probably wouldn’t be a third outcome.

After smashing the old man into a pulp, Jiang Xiao didn’t leave.

Instead, he stayed in the room for about 20 minutes.

Suddenly!

The outline of the old man slowly started appearing on the hospital bed...

"As expected, we can’t kill you Supernatural Beings."

Jiang Xiao’s heart sank.

The ’revived’ old man seemed to regain that partially rebellious demeanor.

With a cold snort, he turned his head away, refusing to look at Jiang Xiao.

"Can’t completely kill you with our abilities, right?"

The old man narrowed his eyes, showing no response, obviously unwilling to answer Jiang Xiao’s question.

"Not talking?"

Jiang Xiao emotionlessly picked up a pair of scissors that he had prepared downstairs and held them against the old man’s there.

✄╰ひ╯

"Can’t kill you, alright, but I can make you wish you were dead for the next few days!"

My God!

The paralyzed old man miraculously bounced up like a carp flipping in the air!

People in the live stream began discussing the old man’s revival.

"What’s going on? Could it be that Supernatural Beings are unkillable?"

"That doesn’t sound right, I remember there were Chosen Ones who killed Supernatural Beings before."

"Yeah, Wobuju once used the power of a Kaidan to kill one..."

"But you said it yourself, that was with the power of a Kaidan."

"Notice, the old man didn’t revive, he seems more like he was..."

"Refreshed?"

Yes, the dismembered limbs were still there, and the old man slowly materialized from nothingness!

Although nobody understood the principle behind it, it was nonetheless shocking!

Jiang Xiao himself had only suspected, but seeing the old man’s performance, he knew his guess was right.

And the reason for his speculation?

All because of the good stuff that Bai Liu had left him in the previous nine-star Analog Horror.

"Dragon Country’s Chosen One, Jiang Xiao, became the first human to perfectly pass the nine-star Analog Horror, reward: ten free attribute points, and Bai Liu’s Blessing."

"Bai Liu’s Blessing: Allows the Chosen One to have the power to completely kill Supernatural Beings of less than nine-star rating ’non-special’ once in each Kaidan (duration: one minute)."

This was Jiang Xiao’s confidence, his ace in the hole!

Jiang Xiao had long noticed the words "completely kill."

Could it be that Chosen Ones, by themselves, are incapable of completely killing Supernatural Beings?

Must they rely on the inherent powers or rules of the Kaidan?

Note that it only offers a chance at killing "non-special" Supernatural Beings.

Meaning that even in low-star Kaidan, there might be some beings that even Bai Liu is helpless against.

And the word "chance" implies that using this skill isn’t a guaranteed death sentence for common Supernatural Beings.

But well~

Jiang Xiao contemptuously glanced at the old man who could neither speak nor move.

If such a specimen couldn’t be finished off by Bai Liu...

Then really, what a waste of Bai Liu’s stature as a nine-star level Kaidan big boss, right?

"Remember, socks before shoes, be a grandson before a lord, Old Bideng, you’ll never again have the chance to bully Shi Shi and the others."

With the scissors at his crotch, the old man smiled uglier than a cry.

My God, what had he done to deserve this? Was this Chosen One purely insane?

Scared out of his mind, his pants were soaked with sweat!
