I Just Wanted To Live but I Somehow Became Better Than the Protagonist

I Just Want to Live a Good Life, but I Surpassed the Protagonist – 67 Yay

By the time Ye Yong had circulated his spiritual energy through two large cycles, expanding his spiritual veins, and opened his eyes, it was already morning. The living room was silent, and the two paintings that had been hanging on the wall had disappeared at some point.

Ye Yong was not sure if it was because of the Chaos Force last night that the two painting beauties had left without saying goodbye. In any case, if there was a similar situation in the future, Ye Yong would never circulate his Divine Technique when they touched him.

As a reader, Ye Yong knew very well what Chaos Force meant. This was the aura that had appeared first when the world was first created. It was definitely at the level of the ceiling of the pyramid. In the lower realm, just a little bit could destroy a Transcending Tribulation cultivator, let alone a painting beauty whose soul strength was only at the Nascent Soul level and who did not have a physical body.

A tiny bit of Chaos Qi had been produced in Ye Yong’s body. The amount was very small, and since the Primordial Chaos Divine Technique had not been trained to the second level, he could not control the Chaos Qi. Therefore, it was impossible to use the Chaos Qi to fight. At present, the Chaos Qi would only be active when he circulated his Divine Technique to cultivate. It would circulate continuously in his body, washing his Divine Body.

“According to the novel’s setting, Chaos Qi is the original breath that makes up the world. Chaos is nothingness, and nothingness is something…” Ye Yong recalled how Hua Ming had suddenly asked for a hug last night, and then quickly let go. “Perhaps it’s not because I’m so charming that I moved the painting souls. Instead, it’s because when they came into physical contact with me, they sensed the existence of Chaos Qi. Instinctively, they wanted to absorb the Chaos Qi to speed up the formation of their physical bodies. Unfortunately, they are unable to truly absorb it. They can only absorb a little bit of the ‘exhaust’ left behind after the Chaos Qi circulates in my body. Furthermore, the amount they can absorb is very limited…”

Ye Yong was not sure if this was a good thing or a bad thing. The bad thing was that if they accidentally leaked it, Ye Yong estimated that he would be captured. Others would find a way to extract the Chaos Qi from him or use him as a tool to produce Chaos Qi. If he was lucky, he would be captured by some villainous witch and used as a cauldron…

The good thing was that the painting beauties would not know that this was Chaos Qi. Furthermore, even though they were only souls, being able to absorb even a trace of ‘exhaust’ was very beneficial to them. In the future, they might become very powerful. At that time, they might give birth to two peerless painting fairy spirits that did not exist in the novel…

“Let’s observe for a while first. Anyway, I’m preparing to meet Mu Qingyin in the next few days. Let’s see what her attitude is like and whether she knows that there’s a strange aura in my body. If she does, then I definitely won’t have any physical contact with Hua Ming and Hua Xin in the future to avoid trouble. If she doesn’t, then it goes without saying that they won’t casually expose my secret, even if it’s to their own creator. ..”

After all, there was too little description of the painting beauties in the novel. Ye Yong did not understand them as well as he did the female cultivators. He only knew that they were painting souls drawn by Mu Qingyin and given spiritual intelligence. They were extremely loyal to Mu Qingyin.

Ye Yong was now observing how the painting beauties were doing before deciding how to interact with them in the future.

Beauties were beautiful, but one had to have a life to enjoy them. Better safe than sorry.

———

Ye Yong was very cautious, so he tried his best to think of the situation in a bad light. In reality, the two painting beauties did not have the intention to expose Ye Yong at all. If not for their contact with him these days and the Chaos ‘exhaust’ they had inadvertently absorbed, they would probably still be ignorant and muddle-headed painting souls who would only obey orders.

The reason they were able to become more human now was all thanks to Ye Yong. They were also very grateful to Ye Yong, not to mention that Ye Yong had never treated them as ‘dead’ objects or tools. He was very interesting to talk to, and his reactions when they teased him were very cute. Therefore, even if it was the human Mu Qingyin who asked, they would choose to keep Ye Yong’s secret.

After all, humanity meant having ‘selfishness’ and having their own thoughts and considerations.

The two painting beauties left without saying goodbye simply because when Ye Yong circulated his Divine Technique, the Chaos Qi circulated actively in his body, making their souls eager to get close to him. However, getting close to him would cause them to be destroyed, so they had no choice but to leave.

The Examination Cottage. The cottage was as quiet as ever. The two paintings of beauties hung in the center, one on the left and one on the right, adding a lot of color to the room.

If the male cultivators who had come to participate in the examination were to come here again, they would definitely feel that these two paintings were even more attractive than before, especially those two pairs of eyes. The faint light stirred their heartstrings, as if they were looking at real fairies.

———

The first thing Wu Xue did when she woke up was to hide at the door and look at the living room. She confirmed several times that the two paintings were gone.

D*mn!

Wu Xue instantly perked up, washed up and returned to her room to seriously comb her long hair. She decided not to cultivate for a day and instead spend the entire day with the young master.

She hadn’t really come into contact with Ye Yong in the past few days, and she was really about to explode. Wu Xue felt that if she didn’t see the young master for a long period of time, she would surely go crazy .

She fixed her long hair, smoothed out the wrinkles on her skirt, and Wu Xue sat obediently in the living room, waiting for Ye Yong to return.

In the past, Ye Yong would practice martial arts in the courtyard at this time, or practice body techniques in the nearby mountains, then bring back a delicious breakfast.

The courtyard was quiet, and Wu Xue guessed that Ye Yong had gone to practice body techniques.

After waiting for a while, Ye Yong finally returned from outside, and Wu Xue quickly stood up: “Good morning! Young master!”

“Good morning, you’re in good spirits.” Ye Yong put the breakfast made by the cooking system on the table, “I’m really sorry about last night…”

As soon as Ye Yong started speaking, Wu Xue hurriedly shook her head: “It wasn’t young master’s fault, young master was able to get to know such a being, it’s young master’s fortune.”

The Nascent Soul’s painting soul, in Wu Xue’s eyes, was a supreme being high above. Or rather, the Nascent Soul realm was really awesome in the early stages of the novel.

It’s just that Ye Yong, as a bookworm, had read many novels, and had become accustomed to all kinds of awesomeness in the early stages, and being beaten like a dog in the middle and late stages, or even not even being considered as a supporting character. So he didn’t have any awe in his heart.

“It’s fine if you don’t mind.” Ye Yong let Wu Xue eat breakfast, and he sat beside her, watching her eat in small bites like a small animal.

It wasn’t the first time that Ye Yong had watched her eat, but no matter how many times, Wu Xue would feel shy. And the food was still so delicious, so in order to maintain her figure, she had to eat slowly.

With the conflicting emotions of ‘Young master, please look at me more, young master, please don’t look at me’, Wu Xue ate for half an hour.

It wasn’t a joke to eat breakfast for an hour. First of all, she ate slowly, and secondly, she ate a lot. With her divine body and Qi Refining stage, Wu Xue was no longer a mortal.

Time flies when watching something cute. It’s even cuter than a cat cafe, which is full of cats. Some people go in and stay for a whole day.

During the half an hour that Wu Xue ate, Ye Yong didn’t feel bored at all. From time to time, he would pick up food and bring it to Wu Xue’s mouth, watching her hesitate, carefully open her mouth, bite down on the food, and then quickly lower her head to eat. His mood simply couldn’t be more healing.

Fortunately, he was single on Earth, and didn’t have such a girlfriend or sister, otherwise Ye Yong would definitely have a fight with the system and argue about going back.
