Chapter 195: Chapter 165: Can’t Lose Money_1

```

The battle involving the Battle Maniac Asura had concluded, but Lu Jingming paid no attention to it. After all, it was merely the conclusion of a conflict among the natives. Why should he care about how the affairs of the Supreme Demons of this world turned out? Supreme Demons were highly territorial creatures.

In their world, they might be powerful and unique, but once they left their world, they reverted to normal standards, well, not exactly normal standards, but they did lose certain characteristics, such as the Supreme Demon’s seemingly pre-set feature of immortality.

Of course, the constitution that belonged to the Supreme Demons would still be retained, similar to the differences between species.

Moreover, there were too many beings like Supreme Demons, so their physiques couldn’t be generalized.

Furthermore, beings like the Supreme Demons inherently had a high starting point; within the organization, Supreme Demons were not particularly popular. Even if there were members who were Supreme Demons, each one was arrogant and haughty.

As for the Supreme Demons here, even if a few died, it wasn’t truly death; they would eventually congeal and resurrect after some time. It was better to focus more on Zheng Yichen’s situation.

Gathering information on a new Proxy Agent and taking it back meant that their mission’s failure wouldn’t pose any problems; the first person to break new ground always received a reward.

They had encountered a new Proxy Agent, and bringing back live intelligence was the greatest contribution. If they died, not only would their initial outlay be lost, but the information about this Proxy Agent would still be perfectly retained—that was the greatest loss.

On Zheng Yichen’s side, following the Blood River, he had reached the base of the Demon Flower. Without hesitation, he thrust the long spear in his hand into the skin of the Demon Flower. It felt like using a bamboo stick to poke into a mountain while hiking; it wasn’t even enough to tickle, and the strike didn’t even pierce the skin of the Demon Flower.

However, Zheng Yichen didn’t mind. With a Blood Sacrifice Burst, a blood-red glow burst forth from the black spear, leaving a huge hole with a radius of one meter in the main trunk of the Demon Flower. Surging blood-colored sap erupted from the hole.

The black long spear plugged the hole, and the gushing blood-colored sap had reduced a lot before it even hit the ground. Some of the blood-colored sap splashed on Zheng Yichen, and like living creatures, it crept into his body.

It left distinct blood-colored marks on his skin, which had just shed an exuvia and was refreshed.

Without a second thought, Zheng Yichen activated Burst Mode, and the blood-red marks on his skin evaporated away as if incense being lit, making him feel that his rampaging muscles had returned to normal.

All right, directly absorbing the Demon Flower’s blood with the black spear posed no problems, but physical contact was a different matter; his body could also absorb the blood of extraordinary creatures.

The blood splashed on him when he had killed a chick was absorbed in part, except for the blood on the clothes. However, the absorptive property wasn’t strong, unlike the black spear, which acted like a water pump upon hitting the target.

The Demon Flower’s blood was corrosive. Some of it remained on the skin before being absorbed, causing a direct impact on his body.

A large amount of the Demon Flower’s blood was absorbed, and the excess feedback became a substitute for Blood Combustion Return to Origin. Zheng Yichen felt that he had wasted a lot before, as until reaching a certain threshold, the feedback’s impact on himself was weak, especially against foes who didn’t enhance him.

No matter how many he slew, it was all a waste, a waste of both blood and time.

This Demon Flower became a fuel depot for Zheng Yichen; he could freely convert the extra feedback from blood-draining into fuel and further utilize it in the Return to Origin, reaching his current carrying limit rather quickly.

The hair that had only covered his ears had grown to his shoulders, and Zheng Yichen’s mouth twitched. No, it was longer than shoulder-length; it was just hard to assess while in Burst Mode. It’s not just the hair that’s grown, but his height too, albeit by a slight degree that wasn’t immediately noticeable.

Glancing at his trousers, Zheng Yichen confirmed his growth. As for his current state, he felt that if he fought the Battle Maniac Asura again, he should be able to withstand the 10 Directions Annihilation head-on and then fight on.

Unfortunately, achieving the current state had been difficult before.

"Did this guy’s aura turn into that of a Supreme Demon?" Lu Jingming, who was observing Zheng Yichen, clicked his tongue, then noted this down. It was possible to grow stronger or even break through power limits by obtaining a large amount of blood; it seemed temporary for now. In the future, when facing such Proxy Agents, they absolutely shouldn’t employ any sort of swarming tactics.

And opponents like Blood Demons, who could drain blood, were annoying no matter where they were. Even though such individuals could hardly be considered the Righteous Path, no one could deny that they were incredibly troublesome, with numerous methods to extend their staying power. If such a person was not quickly eliminated and accidentally allowed to flee,

they could quickly recover just by finding a populated area.

```

"It’s just that his aura has become tremendously powerful...No, he acquired the blood of a Supreme Demon before; he might actually possess the power of a Supreme Demon now," Ming Yue focused on the flames Zheng Yichen had released. This time they had no chance to stop Zheng Yichen, and the excessive aura emanating from his body made it clear to her that he could annihilate them in an instant if they approached.

"Forget it, let the higher-ups deal with this headache. As long as we don’t run into this guy in the future, that’s all that matters," Lu Jingming had also accepted the situation. Adding an incredibly powerful Proxy Agent with immense growth potential that didn’t follow the traditional path was sure to be a headache for their boss.

After all, who would want an enemy from the ’Evil Path’?

The eerie green flames gradually devoured the Demon Flower, but the speed at which the flames spread wasn’t as fast as they had imagined. It took the better part of a day to turn the entire Demon Flower into a massive torch.

The scattering of pollen was also thoroughly interrupted.

Watching this scene, Lu Jingming, finding a silver lining, took out his phone and snapped a few pictures: "It’s not often you see a flower ignited like this..."

The Demon Flower couldn’t resist; it was the result of specific adjustments made by the tech development department. Previously, a Boundary Breaker had used a more autonomous Demon Flower, resulting in the flower going out of control in that world. Not only did it fail to achieve their goal, but the presence of the Demon Flower also caused that world to fall and become an even more dangerous place.

It was supposed to be their tool, yet it turned against them. The Great World didn’t need additional Demon Flowers; once that world was integrated into the Great World, there would be no need for the flowers, and keeping such things around could pollute the environment.

Since then, all Demon Flowers have become completely vegetative, needing no additional autonomy. They simply needed to root passively and spread their influence across the entire world’s creatures. Anything more was superfluous and could lead to complications. Although efficiency decreased, it became more stable.

If it were the autonomous type of Demon Flower, Zheng Yichen wouldn’t dare operate like this, as it might casually drop a few fruits to strike at him.

The Demon Flower was a collector of most of the aberrant creature’s essence in this world; the fruits it shed could give rise to a very powerful ’plant-person.’

The out-of-control Demon Flower had thrown out some of the top combat forces from that world against the Boundary Breaker. Even though those top forces lacked the ’realm’ of combat, their actual strength was genuinely high.

"Probably the development department will have to adjust the Demon Flowers again," Lu Jingming put away his phone, suggesting that features which had been disabled for stability might be reimplemented until Proxy Agents like Zheng Yichen died. Otherwise, with Zheng Yichen’s abilities, he’d materialize on the scene without a second thought if he encountered the same type of Demon Flower.

Using the flowers they carefully cultivated as if they were a nuclear power plant, while siphoning the essence of the Demon Flower for their output...that would be too frustrating.

"Phew~ Damn it—still feeling a bit irritated. How are the Supreme Demons doing?" Even though he was mentally prepared, Lu Jingming still felt uncomfortable watching the Demon Flower consumed by flames; they were on the verge of completing their task when it got disrupted.

"The Battle Maniac Asura is dead; he dispersed himself around the world before dying. More than half of the Supreme Demons who besieged him are dead, and the ones that survived are all crippled. But it seems like the surviving Supreme Demons are quite content,"

"Content? Screw them...*cough*." Lu Jingming’s brows twitched, "I’m thinking of making a move on those Supreme Demons. Do you have any thoughts?"

While it’s true that Supreme Demons have regional affiliations, as people from the Great World, they had many methods at their disposal. Some of these methods weren’t exactly top-secret; they were more like knowledge one could acquire in a training course.

Take the Origin of Supreme Demon in this world, for instance. In other worlds, it goes by other names, like... Divinity. They had methods to extract it, and while the efficiency wasn’t high, it was enough to deal with heavily injured Supreme Demons.

Furthermore, the very nature of the non-human Supreme Demon species had value, such as their blood, eyeballs, etc. Some Artifact Refiners and mages in the Great World could use these to create special items.

Since this world couldn’t be assimilated into the Great World anyway, why show mercy to those critically injured Supreme Demons?

They might as well profit from them before leaving. Arguably, the most valuable things left in this world were those Supreme Demons.

"I’ll go find the Snake God," declared Ming Yue immediately, very supportive of Lu Jingming’s idea. They couldn’t afford to make a loss on this trip.

"No need to inform the others; even if they knew, they couldn’t make it here in time." Lu Jingming and Ming Yue quickly decided on their course of action.

He glanced at the burning Demon Flower, a twitch forming at the corner of his eye; if they couldn’t confront the Proxy Agent, were they unable to handle a few selfish Supreme Demons refusing to cooperate?

The Supreme Demons had previously enjoyed the convenience brought about by anomalies, but now with the severe damage to the Demon Flower, those linked to the anomalies were also affected. It might not be fatal or even influence their original strength, but it certainly affected their condition while they were critically injured.
