Ye Chenyang knew that Xiao Shuang had probably dragged Qin Xiao to get that so-called "bone-setting" massage again.

After a commotion, he finally couldn't hold back any longer, let out a deep breath, and then knocked on the door.

"Thump, thump, thump."

The room fell silent for a moment, then erupted into a commotion.

Three seconds later, the door creaked open.

Ye Chenyang looked inside.

The room was tidy up, and Qin Xiao was sitting on a stool with his back to the door.

Beside him, Xiao Shuang stood tall and straight, with a dignified and solemn expression.

As Ye Chenyang stepped into the dormitory, Qin Xiao slowly turned around, straightened his back, and said meaningfully:

"Ah~ it's [Eternal Day]."

Ye Chenyang's eye twitched, wondering what kind of tricks the two of them were up to.

He always clashed with these two people because he was too serious.

Fortunately, we get along fairly well in our daily lives.

Looking back now, Ye Chenyang felt an extraordinary sense of familiarity.

"They're all here."

Looking at the two people who were both familiar and unfamiliar, he couldn't help but sigh.

In their previous life, Ye Chenyang and Xiao Shuang didn't know each other very early.

Initially, he and Qin Xiao trained in Base City No. 7 before coming here after they both broke through to the fourth level.

The meeting place was the same, but their fates and situations were completely different.

After breaking through to the fifth rank, Ye Chenyang returned to Base City No. 1 in order to obtain the "Eternal Brightness" inheritance.

After breaking through to the sixth level, he went to the north with Qin Xiao.

Many of the curses of the [Death] calamity require melee activation, but with the [All Things] ranged ability available, fighting them becomes much easier.

However, at this critical juncture, an uprising broke out on the western front.

Several eighth-tier calamities appeared simultaneously, decapitating Elder Gu and severely injuring him, instantly shattering the defense line.

In this battle, the two sides, both at the eighth level, fought fiercely until the sky darkened.

The battle below was also chaotic, with command lines broken and all legions becoming isolated.

Xiao Shuang disappeared during this battle and was never seen again.

Without a doubt, it was the work of those moles.

Otherwise, even if it were a fight to the death, given the special nature of [Stop the War], it wouldn't have ended up like that.

Well, in this life, with him and Jiang Mian around, this kind of thing won't happen again.

Sensing Ye Chenyang's subtle emotions, Qin Xiao couldn't help but wonder what was going on. He exchanged a glance with Xiao Shuang.

What's wrong with this guy?

"It's not there!"

He suddenly came here, looking all worried. Could it be...?

Heartbroken?

Qin Xiao's mind raced through countless possibilities in an instant, but instead of asking directly, he pulled Xiao Shuang aside, trying to divert her attention.

"Ahem, let me introduce you, this is......"

The latter understood and quickly replied:

"Xiao Shuang, Sequence 5, [War] of [Ceasefire], Tier 5."

Ye Chenyang nodded, grasped the outstretched hand, and said earnestly:

"Ye Chenyang, Sequence 4, [Radiance] of [Eternal Day], Fifth Order."

"Sit down, sit down!"

After a simple question mark, Qin Xiao used "wind" to pull over two chairs.

The three sat facing each other.

Qin Xiao crossed his legs and spoke casually:

"Brother Ye, what brings you to the western front this time?"

"Yes, we're escorting some goods."

Ye Chenyang nodded, pondering how to bring it up.

Qin Xiao is the type who responds better to gentle persuasion than force. If it were someone like Yin Mengyao, he would probably stick to his guns to the bitter end.

However, seeing his expression only strengthened Qin Xiao's suspicions.

After rambling on for a while, he asked, seemingly casually:

"Brother Ye, where's your girlfriend? Didn't she come with you?"

Although this is the front line, it is still quite safe as long as you don't leave the base.

As [Eternal Day], Ye Chenyang couldn't possibly take care of Jiang Mian indefinitely.

Using a little privilege to broaden her horizons and cultivate her character wouldn't be a bad idea.

"Something interesting?!"

Xiao Shuang, who was standing to the side, reacted first.

His eyes darted around as he scrutinized Ye Chenyang's face.

Yeah, this guy is really handsome, he should be quite popular with girls.

I don't know what abilities that girl has, or what she looks like.

Ye Chenyang's expression shifted slightly; he knew his opportunity had arrived.

He did not answer directly, but instead let out a long sigh:

"well--"

Qin Xiao's eyes narrowed, and he sat up straight.

"really!"

"Dude, if you're having trouble, don't keep it to yourself."

Xiao Shuang patted Ye Chenyang on the shoulder:

"We'll be comrades-in-arms from now on, maybe I can help you share some of the burden? Or give you some advice?"

However, Ye Chenyang simply shook his head and sighed:

"well--"

The sigh seemed to carry a hint of melancholy and helplessness.

Now Qin Xiao was absolutely certain: something was wrong! Something really wrong!

How could that be...?

At the time, he thought the two of them were quite a good match, and Jiang Mian looked like a gentle little lamb, not the kind of person who liked to cause trouble.

What exactly happened?

"Oh, you!"

Xiao Shuang slapped his thigh and couldn't help but stand up:

"If you're a man, just be straightforward. If it's really hard to say, then let's not say it! Stop sighing and complaining!"

"Besides, we're all in the top-tier sequence; our identities are there, so what problem can't we solve?"

Provoked by him, Ye Chenyang seemed to open up and start talking.

"Alas, you don't know this, the problem lies precisely in one's identity."

"what?"

Xiao Shuang was puzzled.

Ever since others realized that he was at the top, everyone around him has been trying to curry favor with him.

Could it be... that there's some melodramatic plot twist hidden here?

"When I met her, I had to hide my identity for some reason and told her that I was [Hui Ren]."

Qin Xiao nodded repeatedly, indicating his understanding.

I heard that Ye Chenyang was from Base City 144, which is the most remote among them, so it's understandable that he would hide his origins.

Moreover, I've heard that he seems to have precognitive abilities, so there must be a reason for him doing this.

Seeing that the two weren't dwelling on the issue, Ye Chenyang continued:

"But she's smart, and after spending time with me, she quickly realized that there was something wrong with my abilities."

"what?"

Xiao Shuang was stunned. How could someone who deliberately disguised their true intentions be so easily detected?

"And then?"

"I didn't want to lie to her, so I told her the truth."

Thinking of this, Ye Chenyang's face fell, and he gave a self-deprecating laugh:

"Unexpectedly, instead of being delighted, she became distant."

"I asked her why, and she said that she was just an ordinary Awakened One, not worthy of the top, and afraid of holding me back."

"I told her I didn't care, but she wouldn't listen. Over time, she's become withdrawn and her condition has worsened, which makes me feel bad too..."

"Hiss~"

After listening, Xiao Shuang couldn't help but touch her forehead.

What's going on here?

She sounds like a good girl, just a bit stubborn.

real or fake?

How come he's never met a girl like that?

Could this guy have been tricked by a bad woman?

Xiao Shuang turned her head and nudged Qin Xiao.

He wasn't good at comforting people, while Lao Qin, though about the same, at least knew how to speak properly.

Qin Xiao suddenly stood up and grabbed Ye Chenyang's shoulder.

"Brother Ye, what are you waiting for! I'll help you!"

His [Elemental Edict], while not directly enhancing the talent of [Elemental] Awakeners, is the key to transformation.

If the original talent cap was 100, after obtaining the decree, although it only increased by 1, the upper limit after breaking the limit is immeasurable.

Of course, this is on the premise that one works hard enough and needs to acquire as much "momentum" as possible before reaching the sixth level.

So far, only one of the four slots has been used, so using another one won't be a problem.

Just consider it giving my brother face.

Besides, Jiang Mian's attitude actually proves that she cares a lot about Ye Chenyang.

Even a tough guy like him couldn't help but tear up after hearing this.

Pure love is invincible...

Ye Chenyang gave Qin Xiao a deep look and said solemnly:

Thank you!

"Hey, no need to thank me, we're buddies!"

Qin Xiao waved his hand.

"Where is she now? Let's go find her right away!"

"good!"

Ye Chenyang composed himself and led the way, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Strange, it seems like I've caught something from someone.

It seems pretty good?
