Chapter 164 No! I want to help them awaken!
A visible layer of golden aura was vibrating around the spiritual vein.
It should be a barrier.
I remember reading in the comics that this spiritual vein was originally meant to nurture phoenixes, which is why Tan You was recognized because he possessed a phoenix's inner core.
Lu He stretched out her cat paw and pressed it against the barrier.
As expected, there was no rejection or attack, and her identity was successfully confirmed. The barrier was like a curtain being drawn back, and Lu He swaggered in.
As soon as she entered the spiritual vein, Lu He felt a sense of clarity throughout her body, and all the fatigue and soreness she had just experienced disappeared without a trace.
The injuries he sustained from fighting with Tan You are healing rapidly.
It truly lives up to its reputation as a spiritual vein; the nourishing effect of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is exceptionally good.
How come the male protagonist couldn't beat Qin Wu? Shouldn't their strength be about equal?
"If you carefully read through the male protagonist's growth process, you'll understand. He's not a hard worker; his strength comes from chance encounters, his bloodline, and of course, the character's established traits..."
The system answered her questions.
On the contrary, Qin Wu was a truly hardworking and diligent person, cultivating day and night without rest or sleep, extremely dedicated.
However, because he lacked Tan You's talent, he became increasingly unbalanced and jealous.
It's like back in school, some classmates would work day and night on practice tests, using a sea of questions strategy, and finally get a score of 90. Then, the classmate next to you who always slept in and didn't like to study would get a score of 85 with his eyes closed.
It's as if all your efforts and sacrifices have been a joke, and over time, you will indeed feel resentful.
Lu He suddenly understood Qin Wu a little. Although it was wrong to be jealous of others and hurt them, the author's choice to give her this kind of character setting was really unfair.
When Tan You and Qin Wu started fighting, they were both level six, but Tan You was just at the beginning of level six, while Qin Wu was already on the verge of level seven.
Qin Wu was in a winning position in their battle, but she couldn't overcome the fact that her opponent was a cheater.
Tan You was thrown out of the mountain, and Qin Wu fell into the mountain, which saved Lu He a few miles of running.
After walking for most of the day, we finally saw the ancient tree from the comic.
Lu He jumped onto the ancient tree, found the thick branch, and tried to break it off.
It remained completely still.
My body is still too weak. Should I rest for a day first? Anyway, this is a spiritual vein, so recovery should be quick.
Lu He found a tree hollow to lie down comfortably, and then took out a comic book to start reading.
In the illustrations in the book, after Tan You reached level seven, he prepared to return to the human girl's side, still somewhat reluctant to leave.
He wanted to accompany the girl through her limited lifespan. Humans only live for a few decades, which is nothing more than a drop in the ocean to a demon beast.
Tsk, I didn't expect the male lead to be such a devoted lover. Does he start dating one woman and then find another woman in his harem?
Turning to the next page, Lu He realized how naive she had been. How could a harem novel possibly have only one woman as the male lead?
The comic depicts Tan You encountering a beautiful fire fox demon beast shortly after she emerges from her spiritual veins.
This fire fox is actually a woman in disguise, with a graceful and charming figure, whose every smile and frown is captivating.
Her eyes were as limpid as autumn water, and her eyebrows were slightly raised, exuding a languid charm.
Understand King Zhou, and become King Zhou.
The fox demon possessed an innate allure that captivated the soul. For a moment, Lu He even longed to see its true form.
The fox demon took a liking to Tan You at first sight and wanted to cultivate with him.
"Pah!" Lu He angrily threw the book on the ground. "Is Firefox blind? It's already been mesmerized?"
Although Tan You is good-looking, foxes are known for their beauty. Lu He doesn't believe that male foxes aren't handsome, so how could they be so unsophisticated?
Suppressing his displeasure, he read a few more pages. Tan You had fallen under a charm spell and slept with Miss Fire Fox! Slept with her!!
"I can't accept this! I can't accept this kind of plot!" Lu He shouted inwardly.
No, no, I have to save Miss Fire Fox! I can't let her be ruined by the male protagonist just because of this lousy harem manga setting!
Lu He got up; she couldn't stay lying down any longer. She needed to quickly start cultivating, then take the elixir, and kill the male lead as soon as he returned to end it all.
"Don't be crazy. Even if you've taken the elixir, you still can't withstand the power of the phoenix." The system quickly spoke up to stop Lu He's suicidal behavior.
"What should I do? I really can't stand it. I don't want him to mess with any of the female characters in this comic."
Lu He truly felt indignant on their behalf. Why should these female characters be reduced to mere playthings for the male protagonist simply because they're in a harem anime?
The fire fox was just the first to suffer. Once Tan You broke free of the charm spell and ran back to Forget-Worry Valley, confessed his feelings to the human girl, they would quickly get married and consummate their marriage. That girl would be the next one!
No! Absolutely not! A sharp, exploding sound echoed in Lu He's mind.
"Can't you just ignore all this unnecessary stuff? This is a harem anime, that's their fate... Can't you just focus on your own mission?"
The system was furious and almost yelled at her to stop causing trouble.
"Why don't you take a closer look at the key plot points of the male protagonist in the comic and get the resources ahead of time? That way, you'll be able to complete the mission smoothly."
Seeing that Lu He was still hesitating.
The system was getting anxious, fearing that Lu He might accidentally kill himself and cause the entire volume to fail.
"Why are you always like this? You can't tell what's important and what's not..."
