Chapter 55: 55. Confusion.
Sitting in the class room I got to see the characters I knew arrive first hand. I was a bit eager to be sitting at ground zero with a grin on my face.
I noticed the orange haired Nie Li lazily arrive before finding a seat and putting his head down on the desk.
However as I was waiting for my next recruit something I wasn't expecting to happen did happen.
The others didnt notice it but I did.
With a raised eyebrow I looked over towards Nie Li and saw an older soul of himself behind him with a brown familiar book.
The soul was suddenly sucked into the boy who jumped slightly and looked around in confusion.
"A different version? Well I did destroy the original book. Is this some kind of paradox or is he from an alternative reality?" I wonder while looking at the newly reincarnated idiot.
Nie Li was busy looking at his hands in confusion. Not really know how screwed he would be since I had already looted the absolute shit out of this world.
An evil grin split across my face as I raised my sunglasses slightly.
Nie Li froze for a second.
~Nie Li POV.~
I had suddenly found myself back in the form of my younger body which was shocking, however before I could be happy about that I found myself in a completely different area that was pure white.
In front of me was a man floating in the air with strange white and black eyes.
"Welcome Nie Li, My name is Ryan, The god of Chaos, Storytelling and Bacon. You've been brought back in time to your younger body with the help of myself and the temporal demon spirit book. You failed to defeat the Sage Emperor." The god says. "But you have been bestowed a second chance, this world is a bit different from your old one but still mostly the same. Another powerful cultivator has arrived before you and looted quite a few things but kept silent. Now you must calmly assess the situation if you want yourself and your friends to survive the upcoming storm."
I was generally confused but still.
"Thank you for allowing me a second chance, might I ask what kind of changes this expert did?" I needed to know to plan properly.
"He is a collector of treasures so mostly looting of ancient ruins, they will no longer contain treasures they previously did. Such as the god level shadow devil lamp in the ancient orchid ruins." The god says.
"May I know who it was that took these things?" Maybe I could find them and befriend them.
"Of course my child. But be warned.." The god said ominously.
"Yes?" Nervously Nie Li asked.
"He is far too handsome and awesome to fall for any of your tricks. The glorious one who snatched all that stuff was none othe than me, just because I need to cause chaos and I like collecting things." The god says pompously. "Also remember not to stir up trouble with the sacred family, you might be able to defend yourself but what about your friends? Your Family? You ever heard of the butterfly effect? Well what you should do is keep your mouth shut and quietly grow your power."
What the hell? "What do you mean it was you who took everything? Didn't you send me back in time to fight the sage emperor? Why would you make it harder?! Can't you share just a teeny bit with me, just some small god level growth demons or..." I beg shamelssly.
"No, fuck you idiot...anyway have fun." The god says.
"Wait aren't I supposed to get wishes or something?" I ask quickly.
"Your friends aren't dead, you aren't dead, and your lover isnt dead. The fuck more do you want?" The god asks before vanishing.
~Ryan Pov.~
"Always wanted to do that." I smile watching Nie Li look confused before looking around and spotting Ye Ziyun and brighting up instantly.
Then he spots me and looks shocked.
Of course I wouldn't do something cruel like making a replica of the shadow devil lamp or nightmare demon pot using the matrix and show them off like some prize.
Certainly not.
"What are you doing?" A female voice asks.
Turning my head I see Xiao Ning'er looking at me with confusion.
"Oh I'm just messing with that orange haired kid. One second." I pull out a note from my pocket and pass it over to her which she takes and reads before her eyebrows shoot up to her hairline.
Of course I had monitored my target. The letter was a list of her disease and how to cure it and what causes it along with a couple of medicines she could take to alleviate the symptoms and an offer to heal her personally.
The second was a monstrous cultivation technique that I had Amelia whip up which perfectly matched her soul type. I was jealous that she got lightning and I didn't.
Why do I never get lightning.
Instead I got a gloomy death type soul, not cool!
"Can you really heal me?" She whispers hopefully, ignoring the various rare plants appearing in thin air and shiny pills and elixirs Ryan was waving discretely towards that orange haired boy.
"Huh sure give me your hand for a second." I tell her holding out my hand.
She looks at it for a second before grabbing it only to feel a comfortable warmth run through her body and stifles a moan of relief and satisfaction as her iced up meridians are unclogged and healed. The pain she has felt for months melting away.
"Don't forget to study that cultivation manual and don't train only at night." I tell her before going back to my business of screwing with Nie Li. Who is looking at the head sized abstruse stone I just pulled out with hunger.
"Alright everyone settle down, class is about to start." I hide my item and sit forward like a good little student. Ignoring the glares on my back with a peaceful smile.
