Chapter 851: Special Item: [Burning Reincarnation Circus: Ultimate Version]

Zhao Licheng was dumbfounded.

‘That is Mr. Ma! The Mr. Ma from Tencent, one of the top three richest companies in the country!

‘Even though Su Yang is now ranked fourth on the list of tycoons like Mr. Ma, he’s still at the same level as before. When one reaches the level of a top tycoon, money is just a number. The key would still be their company’s size and how much influence they have on society and the country.

‘Other than those giant state-owned enterprises, there are a few other enterprises in the country. Could our social influence compare to Tencent though?

‘After all, Tencent is the only giant in the country’s social circle. QQ and WeChat has completely monopolized the social choice of the PC and mobile era, becoming the largest pool of traffic.

‘Although Mr. Ma has a relatively small shareholder base, through various agreements and A-B shares, he has 80% of the voting power in Tencent, which undoubtedly makes him the king of Tencent.

‘In other words, he could mobilize all of Tencent’s resources with just one single order.

‘Such a person is practically a giant in the domestic business world. Yet… When he’s personally called Su Yang to ask him out, Su Yang is actually asking him to wait…

‘Mr. Su must be out of his mind…’

However, at the end of the day, Zhao Licheng was Su Yang’s subordinate. Since Su Yang had already said so, he could not refute him. Hence, he could only give Mr. Ma a call to explain the situation.

Of course, when he was talking about this, he did not tell them the truth. Instead, he found a reason and said that he could not get through to Su Yang, which probably meant that he was dealing with some urgent matters. Hence, he asked Mr. Ma to wait for a while. When Su Yang calls back, he will immediately have Su Yang return Mr. Ma’s call.

On the other hand, Mr. Ma didn’t really care about such things and agreed readily.At that moment, Su Yang was grabbing Jin Jin as he started to add more points.

Jin Jin was a little monster born from when the [Burning Reincarnation Circus] became +2. She was considered the main body of the circus.

However, she has always had a wild personality and did not like to live in groups, plus she was resistant to adding points. Furthermore, the circus had reached its limit after reaching +3. Hence, Su Yang did not try to add any more points for her.

However, now that he was in urgent need of her, Su Yang could not be bothered anymore.

Su Yang placed the trussed up Jin Jin in front of him and stuffed the [Maximum Limit Pearl] into Jin Jin’s mouth, breaking her limit. Then, Su Yang clicked on the translucent [+] symbol on Jin Jin’s body and checked her success rate of becoming +4.

[Are you sure you want to add a point to the little monster for the fourth time? The success rate for adding a point for the fourth time is very low. If you fail, the little monster will die completely. The success rate for adding a point the fourth time is 1%.]

Su Yang was shocked when he saw the success rate.

‘Only 1%?

‘This is no longer a low probability, but a sh*tty probability!’

Fortunately, Su Yang had a tool that could increase the success rate of the added point… Lucky Stones. One by one, these stones landed on Jin Jin, who was tied up.

Sensing that Su Yang was preparing to give her more points, she panicked as she meowed and shouted, “Su Yang! You promised you won’t give me more points! You liar!”

Su Yang hesitated. “Really?”He thought about it and realized that he had never made such a promise before, so he said with a clear conscience, “I have a good memory, so don’t lie to me.”

Jin Jin was speechless because she was indeed lying to Su Yang.

Su Yang had only promised not to consume her energy regularly (Summoning the circus required her energy. Once her energy gets depleted, she would transform from a golden leopard into a kitten.). However, he never said that he would not add more points for her.

However, she thought that Su Yang did not remember these details and wanted to scare him.

Unexpectedly, she failed.

Looking at how Su Yang continued to pile Lucky Stones on her body as if nothing was happening, she was anxious. “Even if you give me more, you won’t get what you want.”

Once again, Su Yang took out the shining brick from his chest pocket and said, “See this? This is the [Lucky Disfiguring Brick]. I just need to give it a whack and everything will come true.”

Jin Jin was stunned. “Who are you whacking?”

Su Yang replied, “Me.”

Jin Jin’s body relaxed at once. The leopard revealed a reckless expression. “In that case, bring it on then.”

Her actions seemed to be saying, “You should have said so earlier. I thought you were going to hit me with the brick!”

Su Yang smiled. Then, he tightened the rope and continued to pile up the Lucky Stones.After placing 10 Lucky Stones, Su Yang clicked on the translucent [+] symbol on Jin Jin.

[Are you sure you want to add a point for this monster for the fourth time? The success rate for adding a point for the fourth time is very low. If you fail, the little monster will die completely. The success rate for adding a point for the fourth time is 100%.]

Su Yang was relieved.

He ran far away, back to the castle, and then to the third floor of the garden. From a high vantage point, he looked at Jin Jin, who was tied up and pinned under the Lucky Stones. Then, he held up the [Lucky Disfiguring Brick] in his hand and whacked his face.

For a moment, he felt a sharp pain in his nose, and blood splattered everywhere.

After he was done, Su Yang endured the pain and opened his eyes. Looking at Jin Jin, he made a “wish” and clicked on the [Yes] option.

Along with Su Yang’s confirmation, there was a buzzing sound coming from outside the castle. Then, there was a loud bang. It was as if someone had dropped a bomb on the entrance of the castle, and a blinding light exploded.

Even though the castle was big and sturdy, the doors and windows creaked like they had been hit by the shock wave.

When the light faded, what appeared was a green cocoon of light with a countdown of [59:42].

Su Yang pouted. ‘I suppose an hour is only reasonable.’

Just as he was thinking about it, Little Deeny appeared in front of him with a soft “Poof” sound. She was holding the prepared ginseng soup and a hot towel.

Su Yang took the ginseng soup and drank it in one gulp. Then, he wiped his face with a hot towel and felt more comfortable.At that moment, Little Deeny reminded, “Master, Mr. Zhao called just now. He said Mr. Ma wants to meet you.”

Su Yang blinked his eyes as he recalled something. “Erm, should I ask Mr. Ma to carry on waiting?”

Little Deeny suppressed her laughter and nodded.

Su Yang touched his chin and said narcissistically, “I am indeed domineering.”

Little Deeny was speechless.

Su Yang called Zhao Licheng and asked about the situation.

Zhao Licheng knew that Su Yang had something urgent to attend to, so he did not say much. He only explained the situation to him. Su Yang thought for a while and asked for Mr. Ma’s timetable. He arranged the meeting to be held a week later.

‘According to San Que’s estimation, this week is probably Xu Ya’s last. By then, no matter what the outcome of the circus is with its latest points, everything has got to come to a conclusion then. After that, I’ll be able to settle my work matters.

‘Su Yang can’t remain stagnant for Xue Ya forever.’

After the call, Su Yang looked at Little Deeny who was beside him.

The two stood in the sky garden on the third floor. Little Deeny stood at the edge of the garden, looking at the cocoon of light outside the castle, lost in thought.

Su Yang walked over and asked, “What are you thinking about?”Little Deeny turned to Su Yang and asked, “Master, do you think we can succeed this time?”

Su Yang thought for a moment and said, “I’m not sure either. But we’ve done everything we could. I’ve even hit myself with the [Lucky Disfiguring Brick]. So, it’s all up to fate now since we’ve already tried our best.”

Little Deeny asked again, “Then, do you feel that your lucky period has taken effect?”

Su Yang shook his head. “No. So, after half an hour, I will use the brick to smack my face again.

“Previously, we did not confirm whether the lucky period to add a point was decided at that very moment or at the end of the countdown. Therefore, to be safe, I plan to use the two uses of the [Lucky Disfiguring Brick] as insurance.”

Little Deeny looked at Su Yang with heartache. “Thank you for your hard work, Master.”

Looking at the cocoon of light, Su Yang smiled and shook his head.

As the breeze blew, it brought along the cool sea breeze from Hawaii. Little Deeny and Su Yang stopped talking as well.

After a while, Little Deeny asked softly, “Master, what if we don’t get the results we want?”

Su Yang shrugged. “At least I’ll give you all a Xue Ya.”

Little Deeny was silent for a while.

“Would she really be the Xue Ya we know though?”

Su Yang sat down and lowered his legs. He looked ahead and said, “Even if you ask me that, I’ve got no answer for you. The soul is always the most profound secret in this world.

“Tell me, would a person who has all your memories and looks exactly like you actually be you?”

“For you, that might not be true, but it might be the case for some others.

“The answer looks simple, doesn’t it?

“But… Would you really be yourself though?”

At that point, Su Yang pointed at his own head and said, “You might not be able to understand. Actually, we humans have multiple consciousnesses in our bodies. In the last century, scientists separated the connection between the patient’s left and right brain in order to treat epilepsy (cutting off the corpus callosum). In the end, they found out that both the left and right brain have independent consciousnesses and could not recognize each other.”

“After cutting the corpus callosum, the consciousness of the left and right brain is completely independent, each controlling a part of the body. For example, the right brain controls the left eye and left hand, while the left brain controls the right eye and right hand.”

“When scientists only show things to one consciousness, the other consciousness doesn’t know what happened. When they ask what they saw, the two consciousness-controlled hands write down what they saw, but the other doesn’t know.

“Furthermore, the two consciousnesses might even cause confusion because of their disagreements over something. For example, one hand is buttoning up, and the other is unbuttoning.

“This is known as schizophrenia.”

When Little Deeny heard that, she shivered and looked at Su Yang in fear. “Is… Is this true?”

Su Yang shrugged. “You’ll know once you check. I initially thought that it was fake, but it’s the truth…”

At that point, Su Yang opened his arms and hugged the entire world. “So, who can say for sure who the end result would be? I can only do what I think is right and try my best to preserve Xue Ya’s consciousness.”

…

Time continued to tick by, and soon, an hour passed.

When Su Yang finished whacking himself a second time and used the lucky period to chat about split personalities with Little Deeny, a “Beep” sounded beside his ear.

Su Yang looked at the cocoon in the distance.

As expected, the cocoon of light fell to the ground before shattering into specks of light, disappearing into space.

The light disappeared, leaving behind a golden leopard.

Su Yang stood up and said to Little Deeny, “It’s done.”

Little Deeny was really impatient. She grabbed Su Yang and jumped down the stairs.

Su Yang was so scared that his soul almost left his body. It was because of his dignity that he did not scream. Otherwise, the entire castle would have heard him!

The wind howled as Su Yang’s body fell rapidly. Just as he was about to hit the ground, Little Deeny suddenly stopped and held Su Yang back, preventing him from falling to the ground.

Landing on the ground with Su Yang, Little Deeny held Su Yang’s hand and dashed towards Jin Jin.

Outside the castle, the golden leopard was still lying on the ground, curled up like a cat, still sleeping.

The moment Su Yang saw this scene, the scene of the circus receiving its latest point for the fourth time appeared before his eyes.

The moment he saw the circus panel, a notification popped up in front of Su Yang. [This item has reached the end of its potential. It cannot receive any more points.]

Even though this new hint was a little uncomfortable, Su Yang did not mind it at the moment. There was only one thought in his mind. ‘I’ve done it! I really have done it!

‘Even though the circus has changed a lot this time, and there is a lot more content, the most useful thing is obviously [Master Mode]’s second new ability, the circus’s insignia.

‘Each month, I can mark a living being and bring them to the circus, making them a permanent actor.

‘By becoming a permanent actor, their body would be reshaped and turned into a monster. Isn’t this the equivalent to receiving a second life?

‘My half a month worth of torment has finally paid off!

‘Xue Ya finally doesn’t have to die!

‘Qu Xuan can finally be together with his lover!

‘And Little Deeny and Chu Xia finally don’t have to be sad anymore…’

…

Just when Su Yang finally got the key item…

In Su Yang’s villa on the second floor, Xue Ya was acting coquettishly with Qu Xuan. “I want to eat some oranges, could you go buy two for me please!”

Qu Xuan said dotingly, “Alright. I’ll let Sister Tang know.”

Xue Ya said, “No, I want you to go. It would only be sincere if you’re the one who bought it.”

Qu Xuan hesitated. “But, you’d be alone… I’m worried for you.”
