Chapter 16: The Overpowered Manifestation Aspect

--- Chapter 15 ---

Yu Long gazed at the muscular humanoid with a dumbfounded look. He could feel his connection with it, and put it bluntly, it was an extension of his will.

Unlike the one in Jojo, Yu Long's uh-! Let's call it Stand, for now, doesn't come into existence due to a mysterious meteor falling from the sky.

It was a manifestation of Yu Long's previously blank aspects. After adding [Tyrannical], [Scarlet Dragon], and [Manifestation] aspects into his body, a spirit that no one has ever seen before was 'accidentally' created!

The source of this manifestation is probably 'Profound Handle' from Yun Clan's Bloodline. Although Yu Long doesn't recall the Yun Clan from the upper realm before, this phenomenon answers it without a doubt, as they actually inherited the power of the Primordial God.

Profound Handle allows physical, spiritual, and godly manifestations to appear in reality, as the protagonist Yun Che once demonstrated in an upper realm tournament by manifesting several divine beasts(bloodlines or a will left behind in his body) with this innate ability.

Yu Long didn't have those divine beast's bloodlines or wills, shaping the Stand with [Tyrannical] and [Scarlet Dragon] characteristics he got from Xia Yuanba and the Scarlet Dragon instead.

Although Yu Long hasn't found the genuine answer, his speculation seems accurate. This Stand is a combination of spiritual and physical manifestations of his aspects.

Yu Long tried to command his 'Stand' around, and the muscular humanoid image hovered around to follow his order.

It starts with a cup of coffee on the table.

And continue by phasing through solid objects like walls.

After that, the 'Stand' starts posing like a bodybuilder and increases its muscle mass several times. It also generates sturdy scarlet-colored dragon scales and a bright fire.

Last but not least, the 'Stands' could project a spiritual attack on one's spirit.

Yu Long was excited by this discovery. He jumped from his bed and ran away to the nearest forest, wanting to test this 'Stand' of his even further.

One girl in particular followed Yu Long secretly from behind, wondering where he was going. And what's he going to do?

Yu Long arrived at the edge of a lake, summoning his 'Stand' again.

It releases intense pressure and ignites the air, creating a spark left and right.

Yu Long ordered the 'Stand' to punch the air, and it followed.

BOOM!

The 'Stand' pulled his right and punched the air. A vacuum was 'instantly' created and blew the lake, causing a pillar of water to rise high.

Yu Long frowned slightly, "Keep going!"

He estimated the power of his 'Stand' by testing its limit and realized the strength was around the same as his.

No, maybe 50% more, but that's it.

If Yu Long used the 'Cultivation Realm' as the measurement, this 'Stand' should be around the peak Earth Profound Realm or 1st Level of the Sky Profound Realm.

"Use your ability!"

The 'Stand' nodded and lifted its right hand, summoning a burning scarlet fire. An image of a 'Tyrannical Dragon' appears for a second and pounces on the lake.

KABOOOOM!

The lake 'literally' evaporated. A new surge of water flowed down from the mountain and replenished the charred crater slowly.

"..." Yu Long's mouth was wide open.

This strength is too exaggerated.

But then Yun Long noticed the weakness of this 'Stand' as he fell on his knee and felt extremely tired.

All his stamina and mental energy seemingly sucked dry.

"Fuck, no wonder it was so strong." Yu Long cussed under his heavy breathing. "How many multipliers was that..."

"I also haven't been a good sister to Yuanba."

"And my mother. I don't want to die...."

"I don't want to before meeting her again..."

"P-Please don't kill me."

'I guess she wasn't emotionless after all. Only when Xia Qingyue met Chu Yueli and got recruited by the Frozen Cloud Asgard did she become coldly unbearable.' Yu Long thought while looking down at the messy heroine.

Unknown to Yu Long, Xia Qingyue's Heart of Snow Glazed Glass started awakening because of him.

It was only a portion of the real one, but Xia Qingyue was 'surely' affected.

"Fine." Yu Long heaved a sigh helplessly. "I'd not kill you."

"But remember your words well. Be a good girl from now on, and don't snuck around like this."

"Curiosity kills cats, people say."

"You're lucky I'm not a serial killer or a pedophile."

"Here, drink this." Yu Long handed a healing medicine to Xia Qingyue.

Xia Qingyue lifted her head and stared at the jade bottle in Yu Long's hand. Taking the jade bottle, she nodded and drank the liquid inside.

It's so bitter.

However, Xia Qingyue could feel her body warming up.

After that, Xia Qingyue fainted on the ground.

Yu Long picked up the fainted heroine and brought her on his back.

At the same time, Yu Long also took some of her blood and the patterns of her unique physique. There is also another pattern in Xia Qingyue's mind, but Yu Long didn't dare to approach it directly.

Walking out of the woods, Yu Long sensed several profound practitioners approaching the lake, probably checking the source of the explosion earlier.

He shrugged and erased his presence, "They wouldn't find anything besides a bigger lake there."

Yu Long leisurely walked into the Xia Manor through the backyard and felt Xia Qingyue lean her cheeks on his shoulder.

He walked to Lily's room and knocked on the door, "Lily, I need you to do something for me."

Lily opened her door, "Oh, young master. What do you need-!?"

She looked at the dirty Xia Qingyue and commented, "Did you finally decide to kidnap her?"

"..." Yu Long's mouth twitched as he flicked his maid's forehead.

"Ouch!" Lily covered her forehead, feeling wronged by her young master.

"That hurts..."

Yu Long shook his head lightly and replied, "Clean her up."

"After that, put Xia Qingyue in her room." He handed the heroine to his maid.

"Bye, I want to take a nap." He walked away, waving his hand like nothing ever happened.

"Aih, you should be honest about yourself, young master." Lily sighed, completely misinterpreting her young master's intention.

Looking at the dirty Xia Qingyue in her arms, the maid smiled and added, "Well, I can only follow his order."
