Chapter 825: Chapter 823 Cola Chapter 825: Chapter 823 Cola Those brief five seconds still had some side effects.

Looking at Young Master Qin in front of him, Fu Qian felt a moment of emotion.

Just yesterday, by using the five-second reversal to smash Valudo, he had dodged Yasui Tokiyuki’s life-link attack.

Originally, although he was unstable at the time, he thought that by focusing his mind to the greatest extent, Young Master Qin and his group wouldn’t be affected.

However, just now, Tan Ying’s slightly abnormal behavior had still caught Fu Qian’s attention.

And the current state of Young Master Qin further confirmed Fu Qian’s guess.

Something had affected them.

“Fu Qian, be honest with me, are you involved in some dangerous stuff?”

At this moment, Qin Mingze clearly didn’t know what Fu Qian was thinking. After some small talk, his expression quickly turned serious.

“Like what?”

Fu Qian asked, feigning curiosity.

“If I had any specific guesses, I would have tried to confirm them by now.”

Young Master Qin snorted.

“But I just have this feeling. You aren’t just a jobless drifter on the surface, secretly maintaining world peace or something, are you?”

“You guessed it right.”

Fu Qian almost immediately nodded.

“Help me keep it a secret. I don’t tell ordinary people.”

Uh!

Faced with Fu Qian’s demeanor, even a strong figure like Young Master Qin was helpless.

He knew very well that if Fu Qian didn’t want to share certain information, it was pretty much equivalent to being reversed in terms of mimetics.

“Relax, control your wild imagination.”

Facing the furiously scratching Qin Mingze, Fu Qian casually consoled him and pushed the tray forward the next moment.

“Here, have a cup of ‘Happy Water’.”

“Why did you order so much?”

Qin Mingze, looking at the two full cups of cola in front of him, obviously didn’t understand.

“I’ve already ordered. What you need to worry about is which one to choose.”

Fu Qian’s tone was flat as he pointed to the options in front.

“Do you want this century-old, classic-tasting, sugar-overloaded health killer, or this slightly inferior-tasting yet unique blend that balances health and happiness?”

…After all, isn’t it just sugared and sugar-free? Making it sound so exaggerated.

Facing this explanation, Qin Mingze couldn’t help but inwardly mock.

“Either is fine.”

“Then just pick one.”

Fu Qian continued with a smile.

“You’re really a bit strange today…”
Unable to decline the hospitality, Qin Mingze helplessly shook his head and reached out to grab a cup.

However, what was originally an arbitrary movement gradually slowed down as it neared the target.

Facing the two cups of cola, the act of making a choice seemed to cause him inexplicable trouble.

He even subconsciously thought about abandoning this troublesome decision, but under some indescribable driving force, that thought was quickly extinguished.

For a while, he actually couldn’t move his gaze from the water-droplet-covered outer surface of the cups.

“No rush.”

At this time, Fu Qian had already leaned back in his chair and took a sip from his own cup.

What drove Qin Mingze crazy was that it was a glittering Golden Cup, a never-before-seen cup with no marks for reference.

Was there even such a cola cup?

Young Master Qin’s bafflement was soon scattered by the urgency of making a choice.

…

Of course there’s no such Coke cup–it is the crystallization of wisdom from the Holy Grail Sect.

Just a short while after Young Master Qin sat down, Fu Qian casually activated the Clear Dream Ring.

The habit of questioning why was an addiction he found hard to kick.

Every potential risk would be governed by law.

And having Young Master Qin choose Coke wasn’t some twisted humor; it was because Fu Qian had finally confirmed his answer.

The problem lay in those five seconds.

At that moment, he had repeatedly checked his own state and even gathered his thoughts in advance; none of these were issues.

However, there was an unexpected factor that only later revealed itself–It was the divine distortion from Yasui Tokiyuki.

Because he had forcibly ascended his ranking, the King of Ye Island’s proudest tactic indeed failed to take effect.

But after all, it was a divine method, and it still existed when he entered into self-isolation with him.

During those five seconds of smashing Valudo, it might have exerted a bizarre effect.

Upon noticing the anomaly just now, Fu Qian attempted to activate the dream to mainly oversee more details as the dominator.

Surprisingly, after seeing himself, even though still not truly at Divine Envoy level, Fu Qian discovered his divine-level Insight seemed to manifest in the Clear Dream Ring.

This allowed him not to exert much effort in finding something off about Young Master Qin’s deepest will.

It was a very subtle thread, akin to a special paradoxical thinking or perhaps an obsession that rationale couldn’t deconstruct.

But due to the significantly higher ranking, this malformed core was like a vortex, twisting will and actions.

The previous Tan Ying was probably in a similar situation.

As for the specific reason, retracing it now wasn’t difficult.

Fu Qian didn’t believe Yasui Tokiyuki’s methods could defy him; the key lay in independence.

During those five seconds, his main will was entirely engaged in self-isolation.

And possibly under such circumstances, another will, which was just a floating dust, became slightly active.

Certainly, it completely complied with his will, not wanting Young Master Qin and the others to hear any noise.

But it might have spread this will by establishing a connection.

Simply put, it was like screaming into a megaphone, “Listen up, don’t hear my voice.”

And obviously such capricious behavior from a higher will offered little resistance to the few victims.

Though it appeared as a mere minor influence, over time, it might cause some obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Or perhaps, is that how OCD originates? From occasional brain malfunctions of some upper beings?

In these curious musings, Fu Qian seemed to understand the madness behind gazing directly at divine beings from another perspective.

Of course, the most important thing currently was to rescue the victims and save them from OCD.

Luckily, that was not a problem at all.

“Have you made a choice?”

Looking at Qin Mingze’s solemn face, Fu Qian urged slightly.

Correct, the condition to break this dream was for Young Master Qin to choose any one of the Coke cups.

Which one didn’t matter; the important thing was making a choice.

Using his increasingly acute Insight, Fu Qian tried to link the paradox to Coke.

Putting them corresponding to the mutual negation between the two Coke options.

Young Master Qin and the others weren’t just subjects of observation.

Using ranking suppression to solve ranking suppression was not a perfect solution; it needed to stimulate inner strength.

“I need to think it over.”

Noticeably less accustomed to such situations, but at this moment, Young Master Qin showed considerable tenacity, pursing his lips and staring hard at the two cups.

“This cup.”

After a prolonged and difficult decision, he finally made a choice with determination.

Youth is indeed wonderful!

Fu Qian sighed without surprise.

As the dream shattered, he pushed the already-bought lethal indulgence towards him.

Eagerly taking a deep sip after receiving it, Young Master Qin visibly relaxed.
