441: Chapter 441 Yan Jiuyue's Favorability is Full

Yan Jiuyue felt a complex mix of emotions in her heart.

"Little Brother Chen Yi, I never expected that even when you weren't by my side, you were still silently watching over me!"

"Otherwise, how else could you have arrived the very instant I was being assimilated?"

She recalled what Chen Yi had once said to her: "Jiu Yue, if you ever encounter danger, just call out to me in your heart, and I will definitely hear you!"

At the time, she thought those were just words of comfort!

But now it seemed, what Chen Yi said was true!

He truly possessed some method to sense her crisis and arrive in time!

Little Brother Chen Yi, he has always been working so hard; what could I possibly do to be worthy of him?

Watching Chen Yi's invincible figure, Yan Jiuyue's gaze instantly turned infatuated.

In her eyes, there was only that young man left—the young man who saved her in a desperate situation, the young man who was powerful enough to be looked up to.

"May I have one heart, and never be separated until we grow old together"—perhaps this moment is exactly what that means?

[Ding! Yan Jiuyue's favorability +1 point!]

[Current favorability: 100 points!]

[Ding! Yan Jiuyue's favorability has reached 100 points. Congratulations to the Host for perfectly capturing the Spirit Beast Girl's heart!]

[Reward: Enhancement Points +200!]

[Reward: Special Skill — Fox Fire Heavenly Flame!]

[Fox Fire Heavenly Flame is the exclusive skill of the Spirit Beast Nine-Tailed Demon Fox; the Host cannot use it!]

The System's notification sound rang in Chen Yi's mind.

Chen Yi felt a warm current of powerful energy surge through his entire body.

On the System interface, the displayed Physique and Spiritual Power values had each increased by about 150 points.

It seemed that was exactly one-tenth of Yan Jiuyue's two-dimensional attributes.

He wasn't sure if the SSS-Rank Talent gifted when he contracted Black Rose earlier had glitched.

Su Taotao, Lin Mengxue, Luo Shiyin, and the Hua sisters, whose favorability was at maximum, didn't seem to provide any bonuses.

It made Chen Yi think the boosting effect was actually negligible.

But now, he finally understood!

[Ding! Detected that the Host's favorability-maxed targets Su Taotao, Lin Mengxue, Luo Shiyin, Hua Yuetong, and Hua Xingtong failed to provide the Host with power bonuses!]

[The Host can activate them later through Affinity cultivation!]

It was a bit like a program crashing, meaning it needed a refresh to activate!

To think that a dignified System could actually have such a problem?

That was truly unexpected!

But he had no time to pay attention to that right now.

Because Miyamoto Tenzo had already slipped away.

After witnessing Chen Yi's terrifying strength, Miyamoto Tenzo had completely lost the courage to fight.

Taking advantage of the gap while Chen Yi was dealing with the Demonic Beast Emperor, he quietly activated a life-saving secret technique, turning into a streak of black light and fleeing into the distance.

"Damn it, why did I run into such a freak!"

"No wonder even ZERO seems to value this guy Chen Yi so much!"

"His aura clearly feels like Tenth Rank, so how does the power he unleashed feel no less than a Tenth Rank Spirit Beast!"

"I must go back and report this to Lord ZERO, and let him deal with it!"

Miyamoto Tenzo roared in his heart while fleeing.

His talent was the SS-Rank Space-Splitting Slash; it could cut through space when using a sword to attack, making it an extremely domineering combat-type talent.

However, in reality, this move was also incredibly awesome for escaping.

Cutting through space—for example, if it were a distance of one kilometer, cutting through that one kilometer of space would be equivalent to teleporting one kilometer; his escape speed was not exactly slow.

In just a few short seconds, he had already fled hundreds of kilometers, and was on the verge of escaping the battlefield.

"Damn, he's a total lunatic!"

Miyamoto Tenzo looked back, confirming that Chen Yi hadn't chased after him, and breathed a sigh of relief. "Why does this world still have such a freak? Even Luo Qinghe doesn't seem this ridiculous!"

"Fortunately, I run fast, damn it!"

"Chen Yi, you dog, once I make a comeback, I will definitely --- all your women!"

His words came to an abrupt halt.

A voice suddenly rang out above his head!

"What were you going to do to them?"

Miyamoto Tenzo's body instantly stiffened, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

He slowly raised his head and saw Chen Yi floating above him, looking at him with the eyes of someone looking at a dead man.

"How is this possible? How did you know I was here?"

Aside from his talent being usable for escape, more importantly, he carried a secret treasure on him—the Soul-Hiding Bead!

This item could conceal his aura, making it impossible for others to detect him!

Even if Chen Yi had teleportation abilities, logically speaking, he shouldn't have known where he ran to!

Chen Yi couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense.

He raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

"Snap!"

A sonic boom exploded in Miyamoto Tenzo's mind instantly.

"Ah—"

The shrill scream only lasted for half a second before coming to an abrupt end.

Blood sprayed from Miyamoto Tenzo's eyes, ears, nose, and mouth simultaneously, and then he fell from the sky, crashing heavily to the ground, already lifeless.

A look of horror and disbelief remained on his face, but the aura of life had completely dissipated.

Chen Yi descended from the sky and stood beside Miyamoto Tenzo's corpse, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

Daring to touch his women, naturally, he couldn't let him off!

He bent down and searched the two crystals from Miyamoto Tenzo's body.

The black one was the Assimilation Crystal, and the silver-white one was the Demon-Falling Orb.

Both of these things seemed to be ZERO's items; handing them to Hua Liuli might allow her to analyze the power within them.

Then, he turned to look in the direction of the Luo family, the icy expression on his face gradually melting, revealing a gentle smile.

"I'm back. This time, I won't leave again!"

When Chen Yi returned to the valley, the smoke of battle had not yet completely dissipated.

The corpses of Demonic Beasts and Beast Tamers were scattered on the ground, and the air was filled with the smell of blood and burnt odors.

But at this moment, none of that mattered.

The girls rushed to Yan Jiuyue's side one after another to ask about her condition.

"Sister Jiu Yue, are you okay? Is there anywhere you feel uncomfortable?"

"Just now, that black thing... what exactly was that?"

"It was so scary; it felt much scarier than when demonization occurred!"

Although they usually bickered over Chen Yi, in the face of real danger, they were absolutely each other's most solid support.

Chu Feiyu didn't ask any more questions and immediately began to cast Phoenix Flame to heal Yan Jiuyue.

Golden flames surged from her palms, gently enveloping Yan Jiuyue's body.

"Ugh—"

Yan Jiuyue let out a soft moan, and her complexion gradually returned to a rosy hue.

She felt the warm current surging within her body, and the icy coldness of being eroded by darkness was gradually fading away.

Chen Yi glanced over; since the System didn't give a warning, it was highly likely that Yan Jiuyue was fine.

But he still walked to Yan Jiuyue's side, squatted down, and asked, "How do you feel?"

Yan Jiuyue raised her head, looked at Chen Yi's face just inches away, and her eyes turned red again.

She shook her head, her voice slightly choked with sobs: "I, I'm fine... Thank you, Little Brother Chen Yi..."

"Why are you thanking me!"

Chen Yi reached out and rubbed her head. "Protecting you all is my responsibility; you are not allowed to say that in the future!"
