Watching Tang San's look of shock, fear, and utter confusion, Zhang Tianyu held back his laughter with great effort.
The effect of the [Empathy Talisman] was exactly this: all sensations could be synchronously transmitted and felt.
If you sealed Yu Xiaogang's meridians, it was equivalent to sealing your own;
If you gave Yu Xiaogang a "massage," it was equivalent to massaging yourself!
"Notification: Congratulations! [Child of the Forest] mission completed! You have simultaneously sabotaged both Yu Xiaogang and Tang San, earning double mission rewards: Reward Points +100, Soul Power Level +4."
Zhang Tianyu pulled up his attribute panel:
[Host]: Zhang Tianyu
[Level]: Level 16
[Martial Soul]:
First Martial Soul: Yellow Springs (First Soul Ring unlocked)
Second Martial Soul: (Locked)
[Soul Bone]: None
[Soul Tool]: None
[Domain]: Yellow Springs: Nine Nether Forest Domain
[Self-Created Soul Skill]: None
[Items]: None
[Gifts]: None
[Reward Points]: 180
Before he knew it, he was already Level 16.
With a system, leveling up was just that fast.
As expected, all those so-called "Children of Destiny" or "Heavenly Chosen" were nothing but trash in the face of a golden finger!
Inside the Soul Hunting Forest, Tang San finally finished detoxifying Yu Xiaogang. Yu Xiaogang's complexion returned to normal, and his breathing steadied.
However, Tang San's state had become strange; his face was flushed, and his breathing had grown rapid.
As for the reason, It was, of course, because of that bizarre sensation from just moments ago!
Tang San was an old man, and one who had never been with a woman before.
Having experienced such a sensation, it was only natural for him to be red-faced and have a racing heart!
Zhang Tianyu watched through the surveillance function, laughing heartily in his mind.
However, at this moment, The system, which had become significantly less talkative after its upgrade, suddenly interjected out of the blue:
"Notification: Host, this might not necessarily be a good thing. If Tang San really changes his preferences, the first person in danger will be you!"
Zhang Tianyu shuddered at these words!
The laughter in his heart came to an abrupt halt!
Good grief!
It seemed that was indeed the case!
He had been so focused on playing around, watching Tang San and Yu Xiaogang suffer, and enjoying the pleasure of sabotaging them, that he had completely forgotten about his own safety!
Zhang Tianyu suddenly recalled his previous life, where Tang San had harbored some inexplicable thoughts toward him on several occasions!
Thinking of this, Zhang Tianyu felt a chill run down his spine!
Damn it, it seemed he needed to be a little more careful. If he really pushed Tang San down the path of homosexuality this time, then Zhang Tianyu would be in danger!
Always having someone lurking in the shadows, eyeing his chrysanthemum—
Just thinking about that feeling made him shudder.
"Notification: Host, don't be so absolute! In the previous life, after Yu Xiaogang was affected by the [HOMO Special Effect Capsule] and changed his preferences, Flender became the first victim.
At first, Flender found it hard to accept, but later he just...
So, Host, you..."
"Shut your mouth," Zhang Tianyu rolled his eyes. "Don't think I don't know what's going on in that fujoshi system brain of yours. I'm telling you clearly: give up on that idea. I will not satisfy your fujoshi desires."
System: ...
Returning his thoughts to reality, On the surveillance screen, Tang San's emotions gradually stabilized, and his complexion and expression slowly returned to normal.
Zhang Tianyu's heart, which had been hanging in his throat, finally began to settle.
He really had reason to be worried.
Not only had this guy Tang San harbored several inexplicable and bizarre thoughts about him in his previous life, but just last night, while Tang San was talking in his sleep, he had vaguely muttered his name!
He wouldn't have known about this if the system hadn't recorded a surveillance video of Tang San sleep-talking for him to see.
When he heard Tang San mumble his name in a daze, he truly felt his liver tremble in fear!
Looking at the unconscious Yu Xiaogang and then at the spirited Tang San, Zhang Tianyu reached out and rubbed his chin.
His previous assumption that the Empathy Talisman would synchronize every sensation perfectly was wrong; the effect of this item had its limitations.
For instance, Yu Xiaogang had fallen into a coma due to the poison, yet Tang San had not.
This was because Tang San had used an antidote to clear a portion of the toxins beforehand.
Furthermore, having successfully absorbed a spirit ring, the surging baptism of spirit power had purged even more of the poison.
Since both the spirit ring and the poison originated from the same Mandala Snake, Tang San's absorption of the ring was equivalent to absorbing a portion of the Mandala Snake's energy, which ultimately purified the remaining traces of toxins in his body.
With no poison left in his system, he would not fall into a synchronized coma like Yu Xiaogang.
"In other words, if one sensation is influenced beforehand, the subsequent reactions and feelings triggered by that sensation will diverge, and they won't be one hundred percent synchronized."
"Yes, Host. This is the Butterfly Effect of this item," the system explained. "In fact, many items possess this effect. As you use more in the future, you will discover even more differences and novelties."
Zhang Tianyu nodded. "Hmm, it seems that after being reborn, there are indeed quite a few new toys to play with."
He had rarely seen items with this kind of Butterfly Effect in the past.
Come to think of it, if everything were exactly the same as before, it would be too boring; there had to be some novelty.
However, Zhang Tianyu subsequently felt it was a bit of a pity.
Because after this, Yu Xiaogang remained in a coma for three full days, and during those three days, he suffered from a constant fever.
All of this was caused by the bodily damage brought on by the toxins and the triggering of the body's protective mechanisms.
Since it was caused by the toxins, it could not be synchronized to Tang San.
What a shame!
If Tang San had also been running a fever while taking care of an unconscious, feverish Yu Xiaogang, it would have been even more of a torture for him.
Zhang Tianyu had a deep, personal understanding of just how miserable a fever could be!
However, the sensations between the two were transmitted mutually, not just one-way.
Just like the time Tang San's pants got wet while he was absorbing his spirit ring, during these three days, whenever Tang San had to relieve himself, it would inevitably synchronize to Yu Xiaogang.
And so...
Yu Xiaogang's pants got wet too!
This time, Master Yu had truly become Master Wet!
When Tang San saw that Yu Xiaogang's pants were wet, he initially thought it was because the area was too damp and the dew had soaked Yu Xiaogang's clothes.
It wasn't until he walked closer to Yu Xiaogang and smelled that indescribable odor that he realized:
Yu Xiaogang had wet himself!
Tang San was left completely speechless: ...
He never expected that a grown man like Yu Xiaogang would actually wet his pants!
How embarrassing!
He looked at Yu Xiaogang with a complex gaze, once again posing a soul-searching question in his heart:
What kind of thing have I actually chosen as my teacher?!
