Chapter 156 – Hey Friend, Have You Heard of ‘Siscon’? (56)
The mental power source, what is it? Those with abilities all know. It is the core of their mental potential and the foundation upon which they can wield mental power.
Splitting one’s own spirit source in half and giving it to someone else is a difficult feat to achieve. It requires a close relationship, either through blood ties or an intimate bond between Adjusters and Ability Users.
Moreover, sharing half of one’s mental power source with another person means that they will have to share their mental power. Generally, if the other person dies, the remaining half of the mental power source holder won’t survive for much longer.
After all, damage to the mental power source is fatal.
However, as logical as it may be, splitting one’s mental power source in half with someone else is nearly impossible to accomplish. Yan Qi had entertained the thought regarding his own wife before, but his abilities were not up to par; he couldn’t divide his mental power source.
Now, looking at the current situation of Yan Luo and the similarly pale face of Lu Buchi, Yan Bai clenched and unclenched his fists, then turned away, ignoring Lu Buchi.
Yan Qi also hadn’t anticipated such a turn of events. He looked at the doctor, whose brow remained furrowed, and directly asked, “So, what’s the situation now?”
“Even with this power, I’m afraid it won’t last more than three months,” the doctor said, his gaze involuntarily falling on Lu Buchi.
Perhaps only ability holders close to S-Class could possess such power, right? But it was unexpected that something like this would happen just as Lu Buchi was starting to show his potential.
The doctor glanced at the various expressions of the group, said nothing more, and left.
Yan Bai glanced at Lu Buchi, feeling dissatisfied internally but understanding the importance of the mental power source to ability holders. Moreover, Yan Luo couldn’t afford to share her weakened mental power source with anyone else. Lu Buchi had already taken care of it; he had long since made this decision.
No matter when…
If Yan Luo lives, he lives; if Yan Luo dies, he dies.
Thinking of his precious daughter’s gaze towards Lu Buchi every time, Yan Qi sighed softly, “Go in and see her.”
Lu Buchi was startled, took two steps forward, then earnestly bowed to Yan Qi. “Thank you, Father.”
—Sorry for dragging you all into this, and for failing to protect her.
Yan Bai watched Lu Buchi stride in, his steps faltering due to his injuries.
A hint of dissatisfaction in Yan Bai’s eyes. He gritted his teeth and punched the nearby wall.
How did it come to such a helpless situation?
Yan Qi sighed lightly, patting Yan Bai’s shoulder with a tight grip. He shook his head. “He did no less than we did.”
It’s just that he ended up making a mess of it in the end.
“I’ve always said his desire for revenge was too strong. We shouldn’t have let him get so close to Luoluo,” Yan Bai gritted his teeth, his eyes reddening.
That’s his own little sister, who was lively and playful when she left, clinging to his neck and calling him ‘Brother.’ Now, she comes back, but he was only told that their family’s little princess only has three months left to live?
Yan Qi’s face remained calm, but his hand gripped tightly. He shook his head. “I watched every step Lu Buchi took, from his initial lifelessness and obsession with power to his genuine efforts, all thanks to Luoluo’s peculiar influence, which gradually transformed him.”
The original Lu Buchi was like a puppet, devoid of life except for his desire for revenge. But after Luoluo came into his life, he slowly changed.
