Second Week, I’m Really Not A Villain

Chapter 41: The End of the World After Seventy Days

"Awesome!"

Qin Luo shouted loudly as his body convulsed and trembled due to the pain from the electric shock.

Qin Qingyue used the power of thunder to temper his Flesh Refining body, and the effect was vastly different from when he condensed the power of thunder himself to temper his Flesh Refining body. Qin Luo felt that just this strand of thunder had filled him up completely, and every cell and flesh in his body was incredibly fulfilled.

"Qin Qingyue, increase the firepower and continue attacking me!"

"..."

Qin Qingyue fell into silence, and a hint of strangeness became more pronounced in her phoenix-like eyes.

She originally thought that her useless younger brother would continue to insult her with vulgar language like he did last night. Unexpectedly, Qin Luo's attitude today had changed so drastically, which truly exceeded her expectations.

This idiot finally understands...

Without saying a word, Qin Qingyue continued to shoot out electric lights from her fingertips as Qin Luo wished, striking him all over his body.

"Sizzle!"

At the beginning, Qin Luo could still forcefully shout in excitement, but as the electric therapy progressed and the thunderous pieces shot out by Qin Qingyue became more dense, he couldn't make any sound anymore and could only grit his teeth and endure.

Faced with his strong will, even Qin Qingyue was quite moved. Although tempering the Flesh Refining body had many benefits, the pain involved was unbearable for those without great perseverance.

And the reason she tempered Qin Luo's Flesh Refining body was inevitably mixed with the selfish intention of teaching him a lesson. At this moment, she couldn't hear Qin Luo's howls of anger, and she inexplicably felt that something was off.

Half an hour later, the dense electric lights slowly extinguished.

Qin Luo lay on the ground like a charred corpse, with a large amount of white smoke rising from his body. His violently heaving chest was proof that he was still alive.

Qin Qingyue took a deep look at him and flew away.

"Why are you running so fast? I still wanted to thank you."

Qin Luo struggled to prop himself up and sensed the situation in his Qi Sea, immediately feeling disappointed.

"I was shocked so severely this time, yet I still haven't broken through to the seventh level of Qi Refining."

"But my physical strength has been tempered even stronger."

Qin Luo clearly felt that every muscle and membrane in his body contained boundless thunder. This feeling of being filled with power made him enjoy it very much. He reached out and grabbed the ground, forcefully digging out a piece of brick, and then squeezed it with his fingertips, causing the brick to shatter.

"Qin Qingyue, since you've been so good to me, I'll at most defeat you one more time in the future and won't let you beg for mercy in front of me."

...

...

The next evening.

Qin Qingyue was still in the air when she saw Qin Luo standing gloomily in the courtyard, looking up at the setting sun at a forty-five-degree angle. His expression was extremely desolate and melancholic, like a melancholic noble son.

Did I shock him stupid last night?

Qin Qingyue noticed her foolish younger brother's abnormality and furrowed her eyebrows slightly. "What are you doing?"

Qin Luo turned his head and met the indifferent gaze of the noble Sister Yue. He sighed deeply. "Qin Qingyue, I think I might be useless."

Qin Qingyue: "..."

Did I really shock him stupid?

Qin Luo sighed again, "I've been cultivating all day today, and I only broke through two small realms. If this isn't being useless, then what is it?"

The day before yesterday, Qin Luo had just obtained the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Method and immediately stepped into the third level of Qi Refining. Yesterday, because of being tempered by his good sister, he also broke through three small realms and advanced to the sixth level of Qi Refining. But today, he could only barely break through to the eighth level of Qi Refining. The huge psychological gap made it difficult for him to recover, so he looked up at the setting sun with melancholy.

Qin Qingyue: "......"

Does this idiot even know what he's talking about?

Breaking through two small realms in one day is considered useless?

Qin Qingyue couldn't help but think of when she first started cultivating. Even though she had extraordinary talent, it took her two months to advance to the Foundation Building Stage. The higher the cultivation level, the more difficult it became to advance, and there would even be bottleneck periods. For most people with mediocre aptitude, being stuck in a bottleneck period for decades was very normal.

Thinking of this, Qin Qingyue thought that Qin Luo was just indirectly showing off to her, so she no longer worried about him. She snorted lightly and unleashed thunder with her delicate jade finger, starting today's session of electric therapy.

"Qin Qingqingqingqing......"

Qin Luo was caught off guard and was convulsing from the electric shock, his vision being overwhelmed by a large amount of electric light.

Perhaps because she was dissatisfied with her useless younger brother's indirect show-off, Qin Qingyue spent half a cup of tea time tempering Qin Luo's physical body tonight. Qin Luo fell to the ground and convulsed for a long time, but he couldn't get up.

Qin Qingyue didn't pay any attention to him, she just coldly glanced at him and flew away.

However, when she came back on the evening of the third day, she saw Qin Luo standing blankly in the courtyard again.

Tonight, his eyes were no longer filled with melancholy, but instead revealed a faint sense of doubt about life.

"What's wrong with you again?" Qin Qingyue glanced at him.

Qin Luo suddenly came back to his senses and, as if talking to himself, said with disappointment, "I've been cultivating all day today, and I only broke through one small realm. It's over, Qin Qingyue, I really have become useless because of you. You have to take responsibility!"

"......"

Qin Qingyue took a deep breath, her eyebrows trembling slightly, and her jade finger emitted electric light. She was about to start the electric therapy directly.

"Wait!"

Having learned his lesson from last night, Qin Luo quickly called for a stop, "Qin Qingyue, do you have any way to help me improve my cultivation faster?"

Qin Qingyue's jade finger paused, her noble and beautiful phoenix eyes visibly turned cold, "Do you want to help Liu Chengyin deal with father that badly?"

If the useless younger brother answered yes, Qin Qingyue would immediately leave without hesitation. The past three days would be considered a waste of time, and even the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Method would be wasted.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Qin Luo didn't notice the change in his sister's expression and said discontentedly, "Who said I'm improving my cultivation to help Saintess Liu? Am I the kind of person who betrays others?"

Qin Qingyue's tone remained icy, "Then what do you want to do?"

"I want..." Qin Luo hesitated, not wanting to tell the truth.

According to the plot of the game's original story, on the day when Qin Wude issued the imperial edict to dissolve all sects in the world, which would be seventy days later, the protagonist Xiao Yan would integrate various forces and march straight into Fengtian City to eliminate all the treacherous ministers led by Qin Wude.

In the final ending, not only would Qin Wude die at the hands of Xiao Yan, but Qin Qingyue would also die under the siege of the heads of the major sects. Anyone related to Qin Wude would not survive.

So Qin Luo had been cultivating so diligently these past few days because he didn't have much time left. He had to reach the maximum level within seventy days, otherwise, the only fate waiting for him, Qin Qingyue, Qin Wude, and others would be death.

Originally, with the progress of leveling up two or three levels a day, Qin Luo had a good chance of reaching the maximum level after seventy days. But since breaking through to the eighth level of Qi Refining, he could only level up once a day. The higher his cultivation level, the slower his level would increase. How could he not be anxious about this?
