My Identity Is Becoming More and More Astonishing

He watched the two people leave.

Chen Yu and the young girl stood at the corner of the stairs, looking at each other.

The sudden appearance of the girl's father had "leaked" everything.

Chen Yu knew he was now "a sitting duck."

The girl also knew that Chen Yu knew he was "a sitting duck."

So, even though they were still looking at each other, neither said anything more.

After a long while.

The girl turned around and continued upstairs with her notebook in hand.

Chen Yu sighed deeply and said, "Sister, let me tell you the truth, those 'flexibility techniques' in the video are all fake."

"What do you mean?" The girl stopped and turned around.

"They were all acted out by actors," Chen Yu spread his hands. "Otherwise, why would your title above your head have changed to Misguided?"

"All fake…" The girl looked at Chen Yu thoughtfully.

"Yes." Chen Yu nodded, confessing, "What I showed you was just a movie. If there really was a 'flexibility technique' that could control someone else, why would they be actors?"

"..."

The girl was silent.

After quite some time, she nodded, still holding her notebook, and went upstairs, "I understand. Good night."

"Good night."

The two parted at the corner of the stairs.

Chen Yu returned to his temporary residence, drew the curtains shut, sat on the bed, and fell into deep thought.

At this point, it was certain.

The authorities had "caught" him and identified him as the main culprit of the Hecheng Henghui Group incident.

Even now, there was a group of Transcendents, including the girl's father, waiting outside the villa, ready to act.

As for why they hadn't arrested him right away…

Chen Yu had no idea.

"Perhaps…"

"The authorities are still investigating my background?"

His gaze flickering for a moment, Chen Yu lifted his left hand and quietly activated his new special ability—the roaming snake.

Then, with his right hand, he pinched the palm of his left hand.

The skin became bouncy and soft.

Indistinguishable from a normal person.

"..."

"Damn, what an unexpected pleasure."

Chen Yu smiled silently.

Initially, he had planned to use the "second special ability" he copied to replace himself with a new ability to shake off his "murderer" identity.

But he hadn't expected that this newly copied special ability would be related to flexibility techniques…

What's the point of being a Transcendent then?

Anyhow, now he could easily soften his bodily tissues to the level of a normal person. If he simply bit the bullet and claimed he was an ordinary person, who would be able to tell?

"Thump!"

Chen Yu lay flat on the bed in the shape of the character for "wood." He was quite content.

Beaming with satisfaction.

...

The next day.

Early in the morning.

Chen Yu woke up and got out of bed.

He opened the curtain to take a look outside.

He saw the girl practicing in the courtyard, continuing to dance with that strange steel-pole dance around her wooden pile.

What caught Chen Yu's attention was that the title above her head had changed back to [Innocent and Unsullied Virgin].

"Nice."

"I can 'farm' the 'instance' again."

Hurrying to put on a jacket, he quickly tidied himself up, Chen Yu dashed out the door and ran outside to greet the girl.

"Good morning."

"...Good morning." The girl, with her eyes closed, caressed the wooden pile and did not turn around.

Chen Yu: "About yesterday..."

"I looked it up yesterday." The girl continued her movements, her voice indifferent: "Those 'flexibility techniques' are indeed fake. They're called caresses."

Chen Yu: "..."

"Stop watching those things from now on." The girl continued, "The elders in my tribe told me that those are unhealthy content."

"...That's not right!" Chen Yu took a big step forward, walked up to the girl's side, and began his explanation, "I admit, there's good and bad in everything in this world. But what I showed you yesterday is definitely not bad. On the contrary, it is the origin of all life."

"What do you mean?" The girl stopped her soft fist movements.

"I'll just ask you one question..." Chen Yu whispered into the girl's ear, tempting like a devil, "Aren't you curious about how humans... came into existence?"

"How did it appear?" The girl opened her eyes wide, unblinking as she stared at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu did not immediately answer, but continued to entice, kindling the girl's curiosity, "Aren't you curious about how you were born into this world?"

"How was I born?"

"Aren't you curious why the man and woman in the video were doing those weird actions? Who is the audience? Why do they want to watch?"

"..." The girl frowned, "Just say what you want to say."

"The moment of choice has arrived."

Chen Yu spread his hands, opened his fingers, "Firstly, I want to emphasize that I'm someone who really respects people. Especially dedicated to democracy and freedom. So, now I have two candies. One is blue. The other is red. Which one do you choose?"

The girl: "…You don't actually have any candy in your hand."

Chen Yu's expression changed, "That's exactly what I'm talking about! Do you get what I mean? Just pretend that you can see two candies on my hand. One is blue. The other is red. Which one do you choose?"

The girl: "..."

Chen Yu sneered, "The blue candy represents the truth. Once you eat it, you'll know what the real world is like."

The girl hesitated, put her slender index finger to the corner of her mouth, "And the red one?"

Chen Yu: "The red candy also represents the truth. When you eat it, you'll know what the real world is like."

The girl: "…Then what's the difference between them?"

Chen Yu: "One is blueberry-flavored, the other is strawberry-flavored."

The girl: "..."

"It looks like you've made your choice. Hehehe..."

Chen Yu's eyes glinted maliciously, his mouth curving up as he whispered a few words into the girl's ear.

The girl's expression immediately went from indifferent to surprised.

Then from surprised to shocked.

Eventually, from shocked to horrified...

"How… How is that possible?!" The girl incredulously covered her mouth, exclaiming.

"So you see, you still don't understand. But since you have chosen to eat the 'truth' candy, then..."

Chen Yu, with a smile curling at his lips, once again pulled out the Yan map from his chest, handing it over with great care to the girl: "Don't watch those plot-heavy ones anymore. Open the other folders, and you will witness a real world..."

"…" The girl accepted the scroll blankly.

"It was your own choice, remember," Chen Yu said eerily as he backed away, "It's got nothing to do with me..."

The girl, looking down at the scroll in her hands, wore a serious expression.

Unable to contain the rapidly fermenting curiosity and doubt in her heart, she turned and walked into the villa, holding the scroll close.

"Make sure you look at it somewhere private!" Chen Yu called out.

"Mhm." The girl nodded, disappearing at the staircase on the first floor of the villa...

"Sigh..."

Chen Yu lamented, "Girls these days, how can one ever be at ease about them. Her father is really not doing a good job..."

The girl had left.

Now only Chen Yu remained in the courtyard.

Hands in pockets, he looked around the area, pondered for a moment, then deliberately moved to the wooden post to practice the fist technique the girl had taught him the day before - the Welcoming Spring Surge.

But today, it might just be an unusual day.

He had just practiced for half an hour when the villa's mahogany gate was pushed open.

A group of people burst in hectically.

Chen Yu looked at the commotion, his heart skipping a beat...

This group of people, each cloaked and wearing tall hats.

With every step they took, they unapologetically released waves of supernatural power.

Among them, there were two people Chen Yu recognized.

One was Li Yao's father.

The other was the elder in traditional clothes he had sparred with a few days ago in Hecheng.

"Chen Yu."

The group halted, the long-haired man at the front spoke with a cold tone, "We are from the Supernatural Alliance Audit Bureau. This is my ID."

As he spoke, the long-haired man magically produced an ID card, showing it to Chen Yu.

Chen Yu, however, acted as if he were a dumbstruck chicken, "Sirs… What can I do for you?"

"You should know what this is about," the long-haired man said expressionlessly, presenting another photograph.

In the photo was Chen Yu, arms and legs flailing, wreaking havoc.

"..."

"I knew it," Chen Yu's lips curled up, "The big one is coming..."

"What?"

"I said, my big one is coming!"

"What does that mean?" The long-haired man frowned.

Chen Yu quickly gestured, struggling to explain, "I mean, nature's calling! My big one is coming. Can I go to the bathroom first?"

The group: "..."

The long-haired man's temple vein throbbed slightly, "…Do you find such a lame joke funny?"

…
