Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! Chapter 872 - The Proudest Person in Dragon City

Chapter 872: The Proudest Person in Dragon City

Lu Siya cursed for a long time in the rainstorm.

Only then did she calm down a little.

She glanced at Meng Chao, smiled, and said, “Fortunately, I found you again at this time.

“I was surprised to find that you were the second person after Lin Chuan who was not phased by me at all…

“Especially when we were in the narrow training cabin together, and our training clothes, which were as thin as cicada’s wings, were soaked by the genetic medicine. At that time, I thought that no matter how calm you were, you would have some… basic reactions to show respect, right?

“However, I carefully sensed the direction and speed of your blood flow, and I found that your blood did not condense downward at all.

“It made me realize that you were really not interested in my body.”

“Wait…”

Meng Chao interrupted Lu Siya. “Sister Ya, that’s why you were paying attention to the blood all over my body when we were training together. Did It condense downward

“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to. This is the pain of being a ‘sensitive’.”

Lu Siya sighed and said, “That’s why I wear special gla.s.ses made of crystals and monster bone powder, which can lower my senses and block redundant information, to slow myself down a little.

“But when I was training with you, I had to stimulate my spirit energy to the maximum. I couldn’t wear the gla.s.ses all the time, could I?

“Also, in order to adjust my vitality magnetic field to the same frequency as yours, I had to monitor your breathing, heartbeat, and a series of physiological parameters. At that time, you also monitored my physiological parameters. I just accidentally monitored a little bit more

“That’s not a little bit.”

Meng Chao said, “That’s a long time

“At first, I thought that you were just like Lin Chuan, feeling inferior and ashamed of yourself in front of me. After all, you and Lin Chuan come from the same background, and your talent and experience are almost the same. The two of you are also very good friends. I thought that you were just a small-sized Lin Chuan.”

Lu Siya continued, “Slowly, I realized that you are far stronger than Lin Chuan, a hundred times stronger. Do you know how much stronger you are than him?”

Meng Chao thought for a moment and asked, “In terms of combat power?”

His current combat power was indeed much stronger than Lin Chuan’s in the past.

“For a strong person, combat power is indeed very important, but it is definitely not the most important factor that determines how strong a strong person is.”

Lu Siya stared into Meng Chao’s eyes and slowly said, “Unlike Lin Chuan, who is extremely self-abased, you are very proud. You are the proudest person I have ever met in my life, and even the proudest existence among all the transmigrators on Earth!”

Meng Chao was stunned for a moment. He pointed at his own nose and asked, “Am I… proud?”

“Proud. You don’t even realize it yourself. The real pride is the pride that comes from your subconscious.”

Lu Siya seriously said, “I’m proud. Many people have been deceived by your appearance and style. They think that you are an easy-going person who has no desires and is even very casual. Only a Spirit Sensor like me, who has been with you day and night, can feel the pride that seeps out from the depths of your bones.

“I don’t know how to describe this kind of pride either. It’s as if you feel that you have a unique power or a world-shaking secret that no one knows about. You always exude the aura of ‘I’m the only one who is awake when everyone is drunk.’ Everyone else is a short-sighted fool. Only you are the most intelligent person in the world who can see far ahead. You are even… the ‘savior.’”

Meng Chao scratched his head. “Is it that obvious?”

“Others might not be able to tell, but in my eyes, it is.”

Lu Siya said, “Do you still remember the last jewelry exhibition I brought you to? It was for the nine great cultivation families and was not open to the public. People with other surnames needed an invitation to enter.”

“I remember.”

Meng Chao said, “I was so bored that I wasted three hours of my time.”

“It was one of the most high-end jewelry exhibitions in Dragon City. There were scholars chatting and laughing, but no one came and went. Those attending were all elites of the upper-cla.s.s society, so naturally, they were talking about contracts worth billions and the future development of Dragon City in the next hundred years. Ordinary people with foreign surnames were not only flattered but also at a loss for what to do. They didn’t even know how to walk, so how could they interrupt?”

Lu Siya said, “I was worried that you wouldn’t be used to such a big scene for the first time, so I paid special attention to you and was ready to help you out at any time.

“However, I found that the way you looked at those rich kids was like you were looking at a bunch of clowns, or even a pile of… dead bones in a tomb!

“It’s true that many poor kids lost their balance when they faced the rich kids. They would put on an overly sharp posture to arm their fragile minds and show their arrogance.

“But I know that you are not like that.

“Not only did you not deliberately show your arrogance, but in order to give me face, you hid your true feelings by pretending to be low-key and slow-witted.

“However, no matter how hard you tried to hide it, you couldn’t hide the ‘caring for mentally r.e.t.a.r.ded children’ look in your eyes when you heard those disciples of wealthy families talking loudly and predicting Dragon City’s future development.”

Meng Chao could only say, “It’s not my fault. Your friends’ predictions of the future are really… imaginative and interesting.”

“They are not my friends. I’m also a very proud person. Not every Tom, d.i.c.k, and Harry is qualified to be my friend. I just didn’t expect you to be ten times prouder than me.”

Lu Siya said, “When the dazzling and gorgeous jewels that were carved out of top-grade crystals were presented, even the well-informed disciples of the wealthy families couldn’t help but hold their breaths. However, I saw a trace of impatience in your eyes.

“Your eyes are not only uninterested in these priceless treasures.

“There’s also an inexplicable confidence, as if you’ve seen gems that are a hundred times more dazzling. And as long as you’re willing, they’re all at your fingertips.”

Meng Chao was a bit embarra.s.sed.

He had to admit that Sister Ya’s senses were too sharp.

In the memory fragments of his previous life, he did know some top-grade gems scattered in the depths of the Other World…

Including the coordinates of the so-called ‘ancient divine weapons.’

He was also confident that he would seize all the supreme treasures before the forces of the world found them.

Compared with the supreme treasures that could shake the entire continent of the alien world, the jewelry carved by Dragon City was nothing?

“If it’s just pride, it means that you’re just a whimsical man.”

“However,” Lu Siya continued, “In just three years, you have indeed created a miracle that countless sons of wealthy families could not even create in thirty years.

“This is enough to prove that you have the confidence to be proud.

“This is also the reason why I chose to join hands with you and become the best partner.

“You have the confidence to be proud, but you are not interested in my body at all. That way, you can avoid a lot of trouble.

“You won’t be blinded by the most primitive desires and confuse our business with our ridiculous feelings, making a mess of things.

“Because of this pride, you won’t be shortsighted, blinded by profit, and abandon the agreement when our business has just started.

“So, when Dragon City ended the Monster War and was about to enter a new period of strategic opportunity, and we were forced to the cusp of the storm and had to be more closely tied together to keep warm and face the enemy side by side. The first thing I thought of was you. I think that since everyone is so proud and so rational, we can definitely handle this relations.h.i.+p properly.”

Meng Chao said, “Sister Ya, I. . .”

“You’re not going to tell me that there’s a girl whom you like, are you?”

“No.” Lu Siya said with a half-smile, “At first, I thought so too. I thought that you just didn’t like my type. After all, everyone has their own type.

“I thought that you liked the ‘little miracle doctor,’ type such as Su Mulian.

“Su Mulian is like a budding white lotus, and she’s indeed on the opposite extreme from me. If you like that type of thing, then it’s not surprising that you’re indifferent to me.

“Including the subtle… telepathic interaction between you and Su Mulian, as well as the way she looks at you… the way she’s both afraid and can’t help but approach you, it’s very easy for people to misunderstand the relations.h.i.+p between the two of you.

“Meng Chao, you know that I don’t like to make things difficult for my friends. If you really like Su Mulian, I wouldn’t have suggested such an awkward deal.

“However, according to my observation, even when Su Mulian used up her life force to heal you, the blood in your body didn’t gather downward when you were intimate with her. It was almost the same as when you were facing me

“Wait, Sister Ya!”

Meng Chao could not take it anymore. “Why are you paying attention to my blood all the time? Is it gathering downward?”

“…Everyone has their own curiosity!”

Lu Siya curled her lips and nonchalantly said, “I just wanted to know what kind of girl you’d be attracted to if neither I nor su Mulian can attract a proud person like you.

“I’ve been observing you for a long time, but I’ve found that no girl can attract you. You’re not interested in women at all.”

“No, it’s not like that!”

Meng Chao coughed dryly for a long time before he gritted his teeth and said, “Alright, although this matter concerns a world-shaking secret, I feel that it’s necessary for me to explain it to you since you’ve put it that way.”

“There’s no need to explain. It’s not a big deal.”

Lu Siya looked past Meng Chao’s shoulder and over the rolling mountains to see the dark clouds, the thunderous night sky, and the horizon where countless giant beasts were lurking.

She opened her arms and basked in the torrential rain and rolling thunder.

Flames that could not be extinguished even if the torrential rain were ten times stronger were surging in her eyes. “There are so many wonderful, moving, and unbelievable things in this world that we cannot stop until we explore and conquer them.

“The Other World beyond Monster Mountain Range, the endless starry sky above the Other World, and the past and future that run through the endless starry sky, are the most important things that we should invest all our emotions, wisdom, and courage into.

“As for the so-called ‘love’ between the two carbon-based creatures, because of the instinctive stimulation of pa.s.sing on genes, the so-called ‘love’ that produces chemicals in the brain and deceives ourselves is not worth mentioning at all. Meng Chao, do you think so too?”
