This was also the question Ye Tianyi—and Huo Shui—cared about most.

Yeah, Ye Tianyi also wanted to know why the hell she wanted to take advantage of him.

Shi Jiayi said, "I have a very special physique, inherited from my family. Everyone in my family is extremely talented, but none of the girls have ever lived past thirty. My mother passed away long ago as well, all because of this special physique."

Both Ye Tianyi and Huo Shui wore shocked expressions.

"According to the family legend, it was recorded in this ancient book. Our old ancestor used the Great Prophecy Technique, sacrificing eighty years of his lifespan to foretell this. The only way to extend one's life was that three hundred years later—meaning these past few years—there would be a person of the opposite sex possessing the Fire Attribute and a Pure Yang Body. That person's greatest trait would be being a top genius, rarely seen in a thousand years, capable of making the Star Fortune Stone explode."

"As long as I found him and had intimate contact with him—meaning what you saw, Huo Shui, Ye Tianyi and I kissing—I could use the Heavenly Fire Heavenly Water Twin Stones and activate a special cultivation method to exchange and merge the Pure Yang Power in his body with the Cold Force in mine, thereby extending my life. Ye Tianyi has the Fire Attribute, and he also fulfilled that last condition. That made me believe he was that person!"

The two of them were both left dumbfounded.

To be fair, if Ye Tianyi did not think it was truly impossible for Shi Jiayi to like him, he would have felt that she was making this bullshit up.

Huo Shui believed her, because she had indeed sensed a Cold Force and a Heat inside the room. That should have been the Heavenly Fire Heavenly Water Twin Stones.

"B-But... I also saw his hand..."

Shi Jiayi's pretty face instantly flushed red!

Bang—

Then her jade foot kicked over again.

"T-That... that was also a necessary movement for activating the cultivation method," Shi Jiayi explained.

Everything before that was true. This sentence, though, she had made up wholeheartedly.

Huo Shui then glanced at Ye Tianyi, the corner of her lips curling up.

"You scared me. I thought someone really had that much charm. So that's what it was."

"Then I didn't lose out either!"

Ye Tianyi grinned.

"But Teacher Shi, is his talent really top-tier now?"

"The Cold Force in my body has already been neutralized quite a bit. That proves our old ancestor's prophecy was right, and it also proves this guy really is a genius!"

Shi Jiayi then looked at Ye Tianyi.

Neither of them could quite accept it.

How had a good-for-nothing and a scumbag suddenly become a genius?

A genius was one thing, but scumbag was definitely true. The rumors of him being a scumbag were by no means fabricated public opinion; there was more than enough evidence for that.

Ye Tianyi shrugged and said, "Fine, since you've both seen through me, I won't pretend anymore. I'll come clean—I'm a genius."

"What realm are you at, then?"

Huo Shui looked at Ye Tianyi and asked.

"Why should I tell you?"

"You!!"

Huo Shui pointed at Ye Tianyi, then angrily flung her arm.

"Just you wait. We're not done! Scumbag!"

With that, she returned to her room.

"Get out already. The sight of you makes me want to kill you."

Shi Jiayi said unhappily as well.

"Teacher Shi, you can't repay kindness with enmity. I saved your life, and now you want to kill me?"

Ye Tianyi said aggrievedly.

"Didn't this fairy let you take advantage of her? If you dare tell anyone about this, just wait to die!"

Shi Jiayi stood up after saying that.

Ye Tianyi rubbed the tip of his nose.

"Alright, I'm leaving then. If you need anything next time, call me whenever you want. Love you."

Ye Tianyi then made a sweetly cloying heart gesture.

Shi Jiayi took a deep breath, then said to Ye Tianyi as he reached the door, "Oh, right. You should gradually begin to possess the power of the Ice Attribute now."

"Huh?"

Ye Tianyi scratched his head.

"The Cold Force in my body was excessive, which was why this happened. The Heavenly Fire Heavenly Water Twin Stones will bring a large amount of my Cold Force into your body and transform it. With your Pure Yang Body and Blazing Flame Power, you don't need to worry about any danger. Instead, you'll gradually gain the power of the Ice Attribute. That was the benefit I told you about before coming here. Consider it repayment for saving my life."

After Shi Jiayi finished speaking, she slammed the door shut with a bang.

Ye Tianyi stroked his chin.

There was such a good thing? This trip had directly given him Wind and Ice Dual Attributes. If he could complete the Scumbag System's task, then the Time or Space Attribute would come too. Adding the Fire Attribute, that would be Four Attributes! Holy crap! That felt pretty damn good!

Then Ye Tianyi happily headed home.

Tonight, two women were destined to have trouble sleeping. There was no need to mention Shi Jiayi; as for the other one, Huo Shui...

How should it be put? In her eyes, Ye Tianyi had been a thoroughgoing good-for-nothing and scumbag. Then overnight, he became a genius—a genius whose talent had even made the Star Fortune Stone explode, completely crushing her. She found it hard to accept, and she could not even be sure whether Ye Tianyi was stronger than her at the Spirit Refining Realm! If he had deliberately hidden himself since childhood, then he was definitely stronger than her. If he had merely encountered some opportunity recently, then he was certainly not stronger than her yet. But she did not know which it was.

As for what opportunity it was, they would not ask too much, because that was a major personal secret, and they would not tell anyone about it either.

As for Ye Tianyi...

The Scumbag System had only been activated for one day, and there were six days left. The task was to establish a relationship with two girls within those seven days, and they had to be girls with scores above ninety. How was he supposed to do that? No matter how ambiguous things had become with Shi Jiayi, it was impossible. Huo Shui? Also impossible! Bai Hanxue? Don't even think about it. Ye Xian'er? What nonsense!

Then there was no one left!

Not only would the Scumbag System be gone with this task punishment, but the tasks triggered by those girls during that time would be gone too.

Damn! My mentality is exploding!

No, he had to find an easy target! At the very least, he had to pursue one girl. That way, even if there was no task reward, the task punishment would be gone too.

Click—

Ye Tianyi opened the door to his home. A bloody smell pierced his nostrils, and his brows suddenly furrowed.

Let me emphasize once more: this book is a semi-daily novel. There will be battles and hot-blooded moments too, but perhaps not much in the early stages. So please do not judge this book by the standards of those kinds of stories; view it as a daily novel instead. Some people always think it is padded out, but I think it is alright... Also, as always, request tickets! I have repaid three chapters and still owe everyone ten more. Three chapters a day during the new book period is not little, especially since there is not even a recommendation slot. Too many words too quickly is not a good thing... Everyone, work hard! Let's charge the new book ranking! We're at fortieth on the new book ranking now—let's see if we can reach thirtieth tomorrow! Charge!
