Chapter 253 I Can't Leave
If it weren't for Pei Zhaoye, Xie Yungui would have almost forgotten where he came from.
Unfortunately, in all these cycles of reincarnation, he rarely returned to earlier times.
Let's go back to the time before he came to Taixu Academy, when he was studying at Huiming Academy.
To put it more bluntly, since Jiang Xingni wasn't in Huiming Academy, Xie Yungui felt there was no need for him to go back at all.
"There's someone at Wanxiang Academy we need to be wary of." Xie Yungui lowered his eyes and searched through Pei Zhaoye's database.
It was a girl.
Her name—Lu Xianqing—was displayed below her ID photo.
They were hidden in vast amounts of student files.
However, Jiang Xingni could immediately recognize that this was another character who played an important role in the plot.
There was no other reason than that her appearance was truly striking.
Among a group of people with black hair and black eyes, she was the only one whose white hair stood out conspicuously.
This whiteness isn't just due to fair skin.
Her short white hair curled slightly upwards at the ends, and the edges of her silver eyes almost blended into the whites of her eyes, making it impossible to distinguish between the iris and the whites.
His face was expressionless, and he stared at the camera in front of him in a nonchalant and indifferent manner.
It was as if it was watching them off-camera.
"How so?" Song Juexiao asked, sitting to the side.
He Jingtong was usually quiet, while Xiao Jiming was deep in thought.
That leaves only Song Juexiao as the straight man.
"Her special ability is called immortality," Jiang Xing said, narrowing his eyes.
Even through a photograph, even across the gap of time, the advanced Eye of Truth can still provide all of Lu Xianqing's detailed information the moment it sees him.
Name: Lu Xianqing
[Special Ability: Immortality]
[Detailed description: As long as it suffers [unclear], it will definitely generate [unclear] within a [unclear] range. The location of [unclear] is user-defined.]
A very concise introduction.
There were even texts that were blurred out with black borders.
Jiang Xingni stared at her information thoughtfully.
Jiang Xingni was well aware of the extent to which his special ability was capable, and the fact that it was censored only meant two possibilities.
One possibility is that the opponent's strength is too great, far beyond what Jiang Xingni can currently perceive.
Another possibility is that the plot itself will obstruct the way.
Now is not the time to learn this information; she will only be able to reveal it in the upcoming plot, as the plot forbids Jiang Xingni from knowing this information.
To put it more simply, Jiang Xingni's superpower was so overpowered that the writers weakened it.
This wasn't the first time Jiang Xingni's superpowers had been weakened—she had even gotten used to it.
The supporting characters she encountered, such as Ye Xunnan and Zhai Lequ, could never do what she is doing now, with so many areas of their supernatural abilities censored. Only Song Juexiao and the others could compare to Lu Xianqing.
Even Song Juexiao's superpowers have been fully unlocked due to the development of the plot, and there are no black borders that need to be censored.
Jiang Xingni was pretty sure that the girl in front of him would be a new member of the main characters.
But why is the other person in the neighboring academy instead of Taixu Academy? Is there any possibility of transferring to Taixu Academy? If they really become a member of the main characters, will their popularity and screen time decrease if they are not in the same academy? Jiang Xingni still couldn't figure out the answers to these questions.
All we can do is wait and see how the story unfolds.
"I haven't been able to find any specific information about her special ability," Pei Zhaoye said bluntly. "Can't you see that?"
Xie Yungui knew exactly what her abilities were.
However, he turned his head and met Jiang Xingni's gaze, noticing the warning in Jiang Xingni's eyes.
Xie Yungui obediently shook his head.
It's not that I don't know, it's that I can't say.
Jiang Xingni silently complained to herself, wondering what the screenwriter was planning to do to the main characters. Her superpowers were already limited by the plot, and if Xie Yungui revealed them directly, she would easily be targeted by the screenwriter.
Her current impression of screenwriters has become that they are particularly petty and narrow-minded.
Xie Yungui sat down next to Jiang Xingni, and under the cover of the table, he quietly took Jiang Xingni's hand.
On the surface, he remained expressionless, but only Jiang Xingni knew that his hand, hidden under the table, was silently writing words in Jiang Xingni's palm with his fingertips.
【die】
【and】
【complex】
【born】
Jiang Xingni recognized what words Xie Yungui had written in his palm.
...resurrected from the dead.
A superpower with a really bad bug.
Jiang Xingni was heartbroken that she hadn't given herself such a bug-like ability when they first met. Otherwise, would she have been worried about her popularity being too low and being killed off by the scriptwriter?
There's absolutely no need for that!
However, Jiang Xingni only thought this in her mind. To be honest, she knew that she had no chance of tricking herself into giving her such a supernatural ability.
If someone talks about dying and coming back to life, how can readers believe the authenticity of this superpower if they don't actually die and come back to life?
However, back then—and even now—Jiang Xingni's death was a true death, with no possibility of resurrection or a second chance.
She sighed with a hint of regret in her heart.
"What if I could replicate her superpowers?" Jiang Xing asked the system in his mind.
System: [Wait a minute?]
The system's first thought was that Jiang Xingni was simply delusional.
Then it realized the supernatural ability that Jiang Xingni had obtained through his disguise.
As a branch of the Eye of Truth, once she deciphers a certain supernatural ability, just as the academy can replicate an anomaly after deciphering it, Jiang Xingni can also replicate that supernatural ability.
It seems like it's not impossible?
Wouldn't Jiang Xingni then not need to worry about suddenly dying one day without knowing why?
The system's eyes lit up.
That makes sense!
[Go, Stars! There's hope for our escape from the main storyline!]
Once you acquire that person's superpowers, you can fake your death and perfectly escape the screenwriter's control, thus gaining control of your own life.
Pei Zhaoye's voice still echoed in Jiang Xingni's ears as he introduced the two noteworthy superhumans from the academies.
However, Jiang Xingni's thoughts were still not on them.
So, he's going to escape by faking his death?
Three months ago, Jiang Xingni would have made that choice.
Anyway, the main characters have the protagonist's halo, so they can always turn bad luck into good even when they encounter danger, but she is the one whose life is in danger.
Jiang Xingni would naturally choose to protect himself.
Moreover, she had already planned her future. Abnormalities, strangeness, superpowers... all these things combined are the obstacles on Jiang Xingni's life path.
But now, Jiang Xingni's thoughts have changed.
"No," she answered the system in her mind. "I can't just leave like this."
