Stuck in a Chinese novel

Chapter 152: Change



"Why is she mad at me?" Wei Jun asked. "You all seem to know so what is it?"

While Wei Jun asked, Xiao Heiling looked at him with a strange gaze. "Have you been drinking, boss?"

"Have you been using both your legs?" Wei Jun asked back.

"Sorry." Xiao Heiling replied but he still couldn\'t help but ask, "But do you really not know what you did?"

"What did I do?" Wei Jun asked because he was getting tired of this now.

However, before Xiao Heiling could reply, Wei Jun heard another voice from behind, a voice he was very well familiar with. But it wasn\'t the voice that answered all of his questions. It was a sentence, or more like one word in that sentence, "Are you going to stand here all day, husband?"

Wei Jun saw Liu Yu standing there with a smile and a dress so beautiful that combined, she looked the most beautiful woman there. However, Wei Jun felt anything but love in his heart, all he heard at the moment was a single word that resonated in his head for a long time, "Husband."

************

"Explain." Wei Jun said. Wei Jun had left the venue where his film was being shown for the first time, got in his car, and left for the hillside area. He calmly drove to a hill that overviewed the entire Yuan Yin city and calmly asked the system.

[That]

[Host]

[I\'d rather not answer]

"Come on." Wei Jun said with a smile, "I won\'t be mad."

[You will be]

"Haaa…" Wei Jun sighed and said, "How mysterious is life? One moment you\'re in your office, working on many things, and the next moment you\'re in another world. Truly mysterious."

[Host please calm down]

"And then you find out you\'re in the body of a person who is useless and nothing but a pawn. But then you take hold of that life. Crush everything in the path and try to leave many problems behind. Made that life a little suitable." Wei Jun continued.

[Try to look on the brighter side]

"But then, everything changes. Somehow, the things that I built through grueling effort came crumbling down, and the whole world is once again different. And what excuse do I get?" Wei Jun further said and then asked.

[You can still---]

"THAT THE FU*KING FU*K OF THE WORLD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS!!!!! WHAT THE HELL AM I GOING TO DO WITH MYSTERIOUS WAYS WHEN EVERYTHING GOES TO SH*T EVERYTHING I DO SOMETHING!!!!!" Wei Jun suddenly went from all smiles to all yells.

It was a good thing the hill was empty at that time of the night, otherwise, had he been in his home or the city, people from a few blocks would have heard that because he used his Qi in his vocal chords instinctively, spiking his voice in volume by a lot.

"AND THEN YOU TELL ME TO CALM DOWN!! CALM DOWN?!!! WHAT THE HELL IS SO CALMING ABOUT ALL OF THIS???!!!" Wei Jun continued to yell and that wasn\'t just that, he continued to do that for a good hour before he finally stopped, cursing everything around him, especially the world that worked in mysterious ways.

[Don\'t lose hope host]

Unfortunately, the system, who thought he was trying to placate Wei Jun, only rekindled the flame of his rage as Wei Jun once again began to yell.

"BR***************"

"LU******************"

"DIN**************"

*********************************

Wei Jun was in his car, going to a place calmly.

[Host please calm down]

"Shut up~" Wei Jun said with an uncharacteristic smile.

[Host you go there right now; you will die]

"Better now than later~~~~" Wei Jun once again said in a melodious tone.

[Please calm down host]

[You can still salvage the situation]

"Or I can just kill everyone and get this over with." Wei Jun said once again.

[Host, you know what you\'re about to do would kill you]

[How about looking at this from another point of view?]

"What view?" Wei Jun asked.

[…]

[I have none]

"You fu*k." Wei Jun replied.

"Fine. Don\'t worry. I\'m crazy but not suicidal and stupid. I\'m just going to the warehouse to cultivate." Wei Jun said, finally heeding the advice of the system, storing back all the plethora of explosives he had in the back of his car.

[….]

[About that… host]

[Do you remember when I said that as long as you possessed death Qi, the other Qis wouldn\'t come near you]

"I do." Wei Jun replied calmly.

[Then you\'re not angry?]

"I am." Wei Jun replied. He was angry, but there was nothing he could do about it. For some reason, the death Qi he had was inherent, making it impossible for him to lose it. And as it turned out, the death Qi didn\'t increase with the increase in his Qi stat, only the yang Qi increased.

So he could still only increase his Yang Qi, however, the Qi of the world, in the atmosphere was hesitant to come to him. He could force it but that would result in an erratic behavior of the Qi which would in turn end up with a risk of damaging his internals.

A safer and better alternative was the use of various elixirs that increased Yang Qi. There were a lot of them in the shop and then there were many of them in the world.

However, they had one thing in common between them. Money. Whether it was from the system or the outside world, he required money to purchase them. As of now, his personal funds were only about 100 million while the dubious funds were also around the same range.

He would still earn a lot from the shop but that was the extent of it. After all, no matter how much he was to earn, if to just raised one point of Qi, at his current rank, he would require at least ten million yuan. And as his Qi would increase, so would his elixir consumption.

"The basic law of this world…" Wei Jun said as he entered the warehouse in the downtown. He had left Li Wei a text with instructions on what to do. He didn\'t know if anything had changed with her or not but he wasn\'t in a hurry to find out.

[Wei Jun Ruan

Level: 36

HP: 46\\\\46

QP: 350\\\\350

Death Qi: 187\\\\187

Cultivation realm: Qi gathering realm]

[Strength: 82-> 80]

[Agility: 102-> 80]

[Stamina: 102-> 80]

[Defense: 77]

[Qi: 70]

[Charm: 51]

[Luck: 29]

As of now, Wei Jun could only focus on his Qi. He had about two hundred million Yuan in his inventory and he figured it would be enough to max his Qi to eighty.

[Crimson flame herb]

[Tier: A+]

[Type: Consumable]

[Effect: Increases the Yang Qi of the consumer]

[Minimum point: 1]

[Maximum points: 3]

[Cost: 100000 coins]

Wei Jun wanted to take an expensive one but according to the system, his body wasn\'t strong enough for such a strong yang energy yet. He needed to start slow. Even this was not common for Wei Jun\'s level but Wei Jun still went with this one.

Not only that, according to the system, the system would also help regulate Qi in his system so he was looking at the maximum efficiency of the herb if he was just to focus.

A root-like herb appeared in Wei Jun\'s palm. It was glowing as it let out strong waves of yang energy that even Wei Jun could feel his hand burning after just holding it for a few seconds.

Wei Jun breathed a heavy sigh and gulped the herb down, as a warm current, in the beginning, but then the warm current turned into scorching fire that threatened to burn his internals.

[You have consumed the crimson flame herb]

[Regulating Qi in the user to properly absorb the yang Qi]

However, even before Wei Jun could will his Qi, or even the system could interfere, the second Qi core in his abdomen activated on its own and began to circulate throughout his body, taking the heat and scorching energy of the herb along with it, spreading throughout his body.

The energy that was threatening to burn him was now fully tame. Wei Jun didn\'t even know what was going on due to how fast it was happening.

He always thought the circulation of the system was the fastest and most efficient. Turned out that he was wrong.

The speed at which the death Qi was circulating in his system was ten times faster than the Qi circulation by the system. Wei Jun couldn\'t even follow that feeling no matter how hard he tried and in just a minute, the process that should have taken hours was done.

[You have fully absorbed the crimson flame herb]

[Your Qi stat has increased by 3]

"What just happened?" [What just happened?]

Both the system and the user asked at the same time, and both of them were confused.
