Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

"No, Sister Ya, don't be impulsive. Think of another way. I promise that we'll definitely find a way. I'll definitely find a way to completely cut off the monster's power from your body. I'll definitely save you!"

Meng Chao did not expect to face such a cruel farewell on his first official meeting with Lu Siya after returning to Dragon City.

Even though his nerves were as tough as steel and enhanced by the spirit magnet, he could not help but tremble violently.

"Don't lie to yourself. No, cough, there's no other way."

Lu Siya looked at Meng Chao. Then, she gritted her teeth and used the last of her strength to push herself away from Meng Chao.

"Stay away from me... Cough, cough... Whether I'm willing or not, I'm still a monster puppet, a wild banshee, and the Tenth Supernatural Entity that's suspected of causing a large number of disasters!

Lu Siya's face was flushed. Wisps of flames surrounded her body, making her appear translucent as if she was leaving the world bit by bit. "You are destined to control Dragon City and change the future. I am just a woman who has been corrupted by monsters and has a stain on my reputation. Getting close to me, protecting me, and saving me will do you no good. It will only involve you in all kinds of rumors and muddy waters that can't be washed away!"

"Rumors?"

Meng Chao gritted his teeth and laughed. The spirit flames around him were intimidating. The spirit magnet also surged, turning into streams of silver light. "Sister Ya, you've known me for so long. Do you think I'm the kind of person who would care about rumors and gossip?"

"You don't have to care, but Broken Star Club, Superstar Company, and the Azure Alliance have to.

Lu Siya panted in pain. "Even if... Even if you can find a way to completely expel the monster power in my body, you will never be able to prove it to the world... Even if you try everything you can, how can you guarantee that not a single monster cell or a single Blood Flower spore is still lurking in the depths of my body?

"Besides, monster power is like weeds, something that can't be burned by wildfire. It will grow again when the spring breeze blows.

"I am like a highly unstable time bomb when I am by your side. Perhaps, your career and your dreams will be ruined at the most critical moment!"

"No one can destroy my career and dreams."

Meng Chao's eyes were bright, and he resolutely said, "Even if I suffer a temporary failure at the most critical moment, I'm confident that I can start all over again and restart everything!"

He was even more passionate than the spirit flame that gushed out of Lu Siya's body.

That made Lu Siya's face turn red even more.

Lu Siya's eyes were filled with complicated emotions.

However, all her emotions eventually turned into a gratified smile.

She reached out with a trembling hand. She hesitated, but she wanted to touch Meng Chao's face.

After hesitating for a long time, she controlled herself.

The flames of spirit energy spurting out of the depths of her cells, on the other hand, had become hotter and brighter.

A lot of red threads were being brutally burned in the flames of spirit energy, and they were screaming miserably.

Soon, countless twisted red threads crawled up her face and temporarily controlled her body. She howled hysterically in the wild banshee's tone. "You're crazy, you stupid crazy woman! Why did you do that?

"We could have achieved a win-win situation! I can grant you the power to destroy the world! I can grant you the ability to create and control the beast horde! I can help you each step of the way until you reach the supreme throne and become the woman who controls Dragon City and even the entire Other World! I can help you become the queen of the world!

"I can even allow you to retain most of your free will and allow you to continue existing as Lu Siya!

"I've never compromised to such an extent with any human being. Why do you refuse my good intentions and want to be destroyed with me, you crazy woman?"

Lu Siya's face, body, and limbs seemed to be controlled by two different forces.

As she howled, her hands were covered in flames and in Blood Flower spores.

Before her fingers could touch her face, the blood traces that represented the monster's power hissed and fled.

Lu Siya also regained control of her brain and five senses.

"That's right. I do want to ascend to the supreme throne and become Dragon City's master. I want to become the ruler of the entire Other World as well. I want to be the queen of everything!"

Lu Siya looked at her hands and mumbled to herself with difficulty and resolution, "But I'll have to seize everything with my own hands!

"I don't need your help, and I won't accept any charity from anyone!

"I won't accept a monster 'bestowing' me with any power from its high and mighty position!

"I would be denying my own free will. I would still need the permission of a monster to exist freely!

"If a queen who 'rules the world' can't even have 100% control over her own body, then she is not a queen at all but a joke, a big joke—"

Boom!

Before she finished speaking, Lu Siya clenched her fists, and the spirit flame that erupted from the depths of her body was raised to another level.

Right then, she was like an exquisite glass statue that was being melted at a high temperature of several thousand degrees in a constantly expanding ball of lightning. Her whole body was glittering and translucent.

No carbon-based being, be it the spores of the Blood Flower, the monster cells, or Lu Siya herself, could survive for a long time amid such crazy flames.

"You! You crazy woman!"

On the left side of her face, the withering blood traces were struggling for the last time. I don't believe that you're really willing to give up your life! You're just trying to scare me so that I'll escape your body!"

"You don't believe me? Then continue to stay in my body obediently!"

On the right side of her face, the light that belonged to Lu Siya, or her human self, was shining proudly. "Even if I can't burn you to death, I can at least burn myself into a disabled person with broken spirit meridians and no strength to use any extraordinary power!

"My body will become the strongest prison to suppress you forever!"

Facing Lu Siya's determination, the stalemate continued for a few seconds before the monster's power finally retreated.

Numerous crystal-clear beads of blood seeped out of Lu Siya's skin and quickly gathered into winding lines.

Meng Chao could faintly see that deep within the lines of blood, there was some ancient and mysterious thing beating in exasperation.

The blood lines seemed to have a life of their own as they split into seven or eight groups and fled from Lu Siya's body, braving the crazy spirit flames.
