I Received Messages From Future Self!-Chapter 652 - 648: The Great Battle Begins

"Is he Jiang Chen?"

"So handsome!"

Jiang Chen was really too handsome, completely hitting Fang Xiaocao’s aesthetic point.

He’s a different flavor than Tom.

Seeing him made Fang Xiaocao feel lovestruck.

Ahem—

"Princess Your Highness, wipe your drool."

Two dry coughs interrupted Fang Xiaocao’s lovesick state.

Vermilion Bird handed over a handkerchief, indicating for the dear Princess to pay attention to her image.

Really such a disgrace to us subordinates.

Fang Xiaocao snapped back to reality, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Being lovestruck in public and getting caught by her subordinates made her blush a little.

She took the handkerchief and wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth.

Narrowing her eyes, she looked up and down at Vermilion Bird.

Making Vermilion Bird feel uncomfortable all over, he crossed his arms and stepped back two steps.

"Princess Your Highness, what do you want to do?"

Vermilion Bird looked like a weak and helpless target of workplace bullying.

With a bit of a silly vibe.

"You know too much."

"I was thinking about what kind of person can keep a secret."

Fang Xiaocao frowned, showing a contemplative look.

Vermilion Bird blinked and instinctively replied: "A dead person?"

After saying that, Vermilion Bird regretted it.

Wanting to slap himself on the spot.

"This stupid mouth, I should sew it shut when I get home."

Vermilion Bird inwardly cursed himself for being too talkative.

Why did he respond without thinking?

Vermilion Bird cautiously stole a glance at Fang Xiaocao’s reaction, unsure if the Princess was joking or serious.

But in the next second, Vermilion Bird’s blood ran cold.

He saw Fang Xiaocao’s eyes light up instantly, looking up to stare at him: "You’re right!"

"In this world, only dead people don’t speak."

"The only ones who can truly keep a secret."

Fang Xiaocao showed an excited expression, raising a thumb to praise Vermilion Bird.

Vermilion Bird was almost in tears.

Pulled out a smile worse than crying: "Princess Your Highness, this joke is a bit scary!"

"Don’t worry, I didn’t see anything just now."

"I have intermittent blindness, I can see what I should and cannot even see the shadows of what I shouldn’t."

Xiaocao was about to be scared to death by Vermilion Bird’s reaction.

He dared to spew such nonsense, even redefining the symptoms of intermittent blindness.

"Really didn’t see anything?"

Fang Xiaocao smiled mischievously while asking.

Internally, she was already quite amused.

Vermilion Bird sometimes had the silliness of a husky.

He didn’t realize that Fang Xiaocao wasn’t the type to casually kill subordinates over trivial matters.

If Fang Xiaocao valued face so much, Taotie and Tom, those two who witnessed all her embarrassments.

Would’ve long been chopped up, made into dumplings, and fed to that silly bear who doesn’t steal Kasaya.

"Just teasing you, silly you."

Seeing it was about time, and Vermilion Bird was almost crying from her teasing.

Fang Xiaocao finally let out a "pfft" and laughed.

Whew—

Seeing Fang Xiaocao laugh, Vermilion Bird let out a long sigh of relief.

Wiping away the non-existent cold sweat on his forehead: "Princess Your Highness, you scared me to death."

"I thought you really saw me as useless and wanted to silence me."

Vermilion Bird then looked at Taotie and Ying Gou, who were fighting passionately with the Assassins, showing a yearning expression.

"When can I break through to Super?"

"Even half-step Super would be fine."

"With the current level of combat rising, my lowly strength already can’t contribute."

Vermilion Bird’s expression showed some despondency, despite being young, he had a feeling of a hero in decline.

Fang Xiaocao patted Vermilion Bird’s shoulder: "Don’t be discouraged, gold will shine sooner or later."

"Even if you’re not gold, I’ll turn you into refined steel."

"I’ll arrange special training for you to breakthrough as soon as possible."

Fang Xiaocao wasn’t just all talk, she really had such intentions.

Since successfully copying the possession and spiritual perception skills from novels.

She felt as if she had discovered a new continent.

With more and more strange ideas popping into her head, every time she recalled a skill seen in novels.

She wanted to try it out, to see if her current power could achieve it.

Regarding enhancing others’ strength with spiritual power, she also had a plan.

Perfectly timed like someone delivering a pillow when she wanted to sleep.

Just happened to use Vermilion Bird as a guinea pig.

If the experiment succeeded, it would be a joy for everyone, another strong hand to her team.

And more Super or half-step Super level strong fighters could follow.

If the experiment failed—

Fang Xiaocao was open-minded, she’d just view it as silencing someone over today’s incident.

"Seriously?"

Vermilion Bird exclaimed in surprise, his eyes lighting up green.

Like a hungry wolf suddenly seeing a big chunk of fat meat.

Almost drooling from his mouth.

Fang Xiaocao suddenly felt a bit disdainful of Vermilion Bird, thinking this guy would drool even after he was cured.

Fang Xiaocao ignored Vermilion Bird and turned her focus to the battlefield over there.

Taotie and Ying Gou’s combat power truly stood at the world’s pinnacle.

The two of them together could actually hold off three Super Strong and five half-step Super beings, including Jiang Chen.

Eight joint forces, supposedly strong enough to overthrow any power, and still couldn’t break through the two’s blockade. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Seeing this scene, Fang Xiaocao felt a bit worried.

In a prolonged battle situation, Taotie and Ying Gou being besieged by so many might exhaust their energy.

Fang Xiaocao suddenly had an idea.

Though she couldn’t directly participate in battles of this level.

She could support Taotie and Ying Gou in battle.

Spiritual power had a decent effect for providing remote control.

As long as the opponent wasn’t like Jiang Chen with immensely powerful spiritual power, or like Taotie, inherently immune to spiritual power oddities.

Even a Super Master could become momentarily disoriented under a massive spiritual power attack.

In a fight between experts at the same level, a moment of distraction could change the whole situation.

Even decide life or death.

"Vermilion Bird, guard me."

"The enemies are too strong, I need to assist Taotie and Ying Gou."

Fang Xiaocao said to Vermilion Bird.

Vermilion Bird nodded, patting his chest to assure: "Princess Your Highness, rest assured, leave it to me."

"It’s precisely because I’m leaving it to you that I’m not at ease."

Fang Xiaocao muttered, focusing her consciousness into her mind.

Beginning to mobilize spiritual power, shaping it into her favorite big hammer form.

Slowly moving it towards Taotie’s battlefield.

This time Fang Xiaocao avoided using spiritual power near Jiang Chen again.

Avoiding Jiang Chen discovering the spiritual power.

Ruining her plan of providing support.

And Fang Xiaocao also feared Jiang Chen might have ways to attack spiritual power.

Jiang Chen was a Super Master.

If he had methods to attack spiritual power, Fang Xiaocao feared she would be hurt.

So for caution’s sake, cherish life and keep away from Jiang Chen.

Once other Assassins were dealt with, let Taotie and Ying Gou have a good show-down with Jiang Chen.

It’d be best if they could capture Jiang Chen alive—
