Star Iron, my clone is taking over Onpharos

Seeing Bai Yuan's actions, the Fire Thief couldn't help but want to curse.

Last time you dragged me down with you to get stabbed by a sword, this time you're just going to self-destruct. When did Onphalos ever have someone as ruthless as you?

Before being blown to pieces, Bai Yuan looked at the Fire Thief with a mocking gaze.

If you don't know how to deal with me, then stop causing trouble.

Then, centered on Bai Yuan, everything around him turned into white light.

Following the white light, a thick mushroom cloud appeared in their direction.

Seeing Bai Yuan's actions, the Fire Thief was completely dumbfounded.

How dare you play like that!

Outside the mushroom cloud, seeing Xia Die's worried expression, Bai E quickly comforted her:

"It's alright, Bai Yuan and Wan Di are both immortal, they will be resurrected."

"Ah."

Xia Die nodded worriedly.

Meanwhile, inside the Divine Enlightenment Tree Garden, Tian and Feng Jin were also anxious upon seeing this situation.

"Come on, Little Violet, let's go out and take a look."

Feng Jin nodded, and then left the Divine Enlightenment Tree Garden with Tian and walked outside.

Inside the Divine Tree Garden, Serhis was utterly dumbfounded.

This is the person I want to ask to return the fire to Ohma.

Wasn't he a well-behaved boy before?

How could someone do something so irrational?

"Today's young people..."

Serhith muttered to himself silently.

……

The mushroom cloud gradually disappeared.

Bai Yuan and Wan Di lay in the center of the crater that had been blown up.

Wan Di is still lying on the ground; he'll probably be dead for a while before he can revive.

Meanwhile, the flesh and blood on Bai Yuan's body were gathering together, gradually forming a human shape.

"Ouch, that hurts. I won't do this kind of thing again." Bai Yuan's head was put back together first. As he watched his body slowly recover, he said to Xia Die and Bai E who ran over.

"It's best to avoid a next time."

Seeing Bai Yuan's joking and laughing face, Xia Die couldn't help but warn him.

PS: This is the fifth update, 4,000 words. Today's total is over 19,000 words, so let's round it up to 20,000 words. Hope you're satisfied!

Chapter 72 Kidnapping the Titan of Reason Back [4k, First Update]

"Well, I see."

Faced with Xia Die's somewhat angry warning, Bai Yuan obediently admitted defeat.

Seeing his remorseful attitude, Xia Die didn't know what to say. But she also knew that next time she encountered a dangerous situation, Bai Yuan would use the same method to self-destruct in order to win.

His immortality allowed him to wield even more skillfully than any of his enemies.

At this moment, Wan Di slowly woke up.

The power in his body needed to be restored. Although Wan Di had come back to life, he did not get up. He turned to look at Bai Yuan and said, "Next time you encounter this situation, remember to tell me in advance."

"Ok, I know."

Bai Yuan smiled and agreed.

Hearing their conversation, Xia Die crouched down to block others from seeing Bai Yuan.

When no one could see, she couldn't resist reaching out and pinching Bai Yuan's cheek, while looking at him with a resentful gaze.

He had just promised me he wouldn't do anything dangerous, but then immediately started discussing with Lord Wan Di how to better self-destruct.

Xia Die pinched Bai Yuan several times before letting him go.

At first, she was angry, but after pinching it a few times, Xia Die felt that it was quite nice to the touch, so she couldn't help but pinch it a few more times.

Bai Yuan finally finished piecing things back together.

The moment his body recovered, he looked at Bai E, who was not far away, and ripped off his cloak to wrap himself around it.

Wan Di has experience with death; his clothes are specially made so they remained undamaged even in an explosion. Bai Yuan's clothes, however, don't have this effect. They were just stained with blood, which made them unnoticed. Now, if they were pieced back together, they would be very conspicuous.

Bai Yuan felt incredibly embarrassed to be dressed like this in front of Xia Die, Ti Bao, and Feng Jin.

He grabbed the cloak and wrapped himself up in it.

Bai E was caught off guard when his cloak was hastily pulled off, and he didn't react at first. However, he quickly realized what was happening when he saw Bai Yuan wrap his cloak around his waist.

"Looks like you'll have to get special clothes made next time, Bai Yuan. You managed to grab my cloak this time, but if I'm not around next time, you'll be naked," Bai E said with a laugh.

Bai Yuan silently gave Bai E the middle finger.

"Little Yuan, are you alright?" Tian rushed over and asked Bai Yuan.

　 "It's alright, it's alright," Bai Yuan said, tightening his cloak.

"I'll go back to the Divine Enlightenment Tree Garden first." He quickly started running, clutching his cloak, towards the Divine Enlightenment Tree Garden.

“Little Yuan…” Tian said in confusion at first, then realized what was going on and shook her head.

"Kids are just shy."

Although they knew that Tian was telling the truth about her age, it was still hard not to find it amusing to see her making such a childlike expression.

Bai E and Feng Jin couldn't help but laugh, and Xia Die also chuckled twice, but recalling the scene just now, she felt her cheeks burning. The others were too far away to see, but she was so close that even though Bai Yuan was covered in blood, she could see him clearly.

……

Bai Yuan returned to the Divine Tree Garden.

There were still many clothes left behind by scholars here. Bai Yuan was glad that this was a gathering place for scholars, and there were many scholars who were not very tall, so there were clothes to change into. If he had gone to the military camp, it would have been troublesome to find clothes.

After Bai Yuan changed his clothes, Cecily slowly walked in.

"Why did you do what you just did?"

"Isn't this your suggestion, Lord Serhith? Kill that Fire Thief Walker," Bai Yuan said matter-of-factly.

Since Cecily mentioned this name earlier, Bai Yuan decided to use it directly.

"I absolutely did not give you that kind of advice!"

Cecilia felt herself losing her temper.

“You are a smart man, you must know that I want you to abandon this place and take my fire back to Ohma.”

“Yes, of course I know.” Hearing Cecis say that, Bai Yuan nodded. “But I’m not willing to accept that, and I’m not at ease with that.”

"I'm unwilling to accept defeat, and I don't want all my efforts to end in nothing more than running away. I'm worried that this will only embolden the Fire Thief. Today, we can only run away from him, does that mean he can act recklessly and plunder and invade at will in the future?"

“Wouldn’t Ohma, and even the whole of Onfaros, be plunged into this threat?”

"Lord Serhis, running away won't solve the problem. The only way is to fight and defeat the enemy."

Serhith watched him silently.

She initially thought Bai Yuan was acting impulsively like a child, but it turned out he had already planned the outcome before taking action.

“Since that’s your opinion, then I have nothing to criticize.” Ceres looked at Bai Yuan. “However, in order to preserve my physical form, I need to absorb the rational Titan energy back from you. I will find a way to compensate you in the future.”

"Okay, Lord Serhith, please take it."

Bai Yuan understood perfectly.

Since it's not a dead end now, it's perfectly normal to return the energy of the Rational Titan to Ceres, allowing her to maintain her physical form.

Bai Yuan reached out his hand so that Cecilia could absorb the energy from his body.

Serhis also reached out and touched Bai Yuan's palm.

A suction force was generated in his palm, and Bai Yuan felt the energy belonging to the rational Titan within him gathering in his hand.

Then there is nothing.

When Serhii II (Part 1) III Phosphorus Dam, he tried to draw the energy of the rational Titan into Bai Yuan's palm, but he couldn't draw it out.

"How could this happen!?" Sersis's face turned pale.

Why isn't it coming out yet?!

I gave it to Bai Yuan myself, but now I can't get it back.

As the energy of the Rational Titan gathered, Bai Yuan felt his palms swelling. The throbbing pain made him unable to resist asking Sersis, "Lord Sersis, could you hurry?"

"Understood, I will do it as soon as possible."

Ceres increased the force of its suction, but apart from making Bai Yuan's hand swell and ache even more, it had no other effect. It tried a few more times, but Ceres still failed.

Serhis turned pale and finally reluctantly let go of Bai Yuan's hand.

Shaking his head, Sersis said helplessly, "It seems this is fate. After my energy entered your body, it couldn't be extracted and formed a self-contained system."

Bai Yuan never expected things to turn out this way.

"Am I a Pixiu (a mythical creature believed to bring wealth and prosperity)? I only take in but never give out."

Thinking this, he quickly asked Serhith, "Then, Lord Serhith, what should we do?"

"There are two options. The first is that I give you the fire as well, and you take it back to Ohmma to continue your journey to seek the fire. The second is that you release some energy into my body, which will allow me to maintain my form for a few days. After that, you will need to replenish my energy every few days. What will you choose?"

Taking it yourself and receiving it from Bai Yuan are two different concepts. If you take it yourself, the energy belongs to you and can be replenished through self-circulation with the fire seed. But if Bai Yuan gives it to you, the energy still belongs to Bai Yuan; she's merely borrowing it. Once it's used up, it's gone and needs to be replenished.

"Let's choose the second option first." Bai Yuan immediately chose the second option.

He looked at Sersis, who had closed his eyes and looked haggard, and reached out to infuse him with some of the energy of the rational Titan.

After feeling the energy enter her body, Cecily's condition improved slightly.

"Lord Serhis, I'm going to meet up with the others."

"Ah."

Bai Yuan hadn't gone out yet, but Xia Die and the others came back first.

Wan Di hadn't recovered and was being supported by Bai E. Xia Die glanced at Bai Yuan, her face slightly flushed, clearly remembering the scene from earlier. Tian An put her hands on her hips, looking at Bai Yuan with the eyes of someone looking at a child.

"Little Yuan, you're changing clothes very slowly."

"Is such that……"

Bai Yuangang wanted to explain, but he noticed a slight change in the expressions of Xia Die and the others.

"Bai Yuan, be careful, there are people behind you."

At this time, all the scholars of the Divine Enlightenment Tree Garden had disappeared. Those who are still appearing now are definitely acting strangely. Especially Cesis, whose eyes are tightly closed, seemingly shedding tears of blood, with a calm expression—he looks like a mysterious figure.

Bai Yuan glanced behind him and saw that it was Sersis. He immediately introduced them to the group: "Um, Sister Tian, ​​Xia Die, Brother Bai E, Brother Wan Di, this is Lord Sersis, the Titan of Reason."

"It's me."

Before, when the energy belonged to her, Cecilia could choose whoever she wanted to see. Now that the energy belongs to Bai Yuan, Cecilia can only reveal her form to everyone.

"what?!"

Tian tilted her head, looking adorably silly.

Bai Yuan immediately explained the situation to everyone. When they heard Bai Yuan say that the rational Titan energy had entered his body and couldn't come out, Tian and the others became even more stunned.

"Little Yuan, let alone that Ke Xia, I want to dissect you right now."

Feng Jin also showed a troubled expression.

"I remember Yuanbao's body was normal, what's going on?"

“Let’s do more tests when we get back.” After saying that, Tian bowed respectfully to Cexis. “Since things have come to this, let’s return to Ohma with us first, and we can deal with the rest later.”

"Ah."
