Chapter 49: The idea of ​​deceiving Su Lili is really trash.

Bloodline concentration.

With age comes a natural increase.

For supernaturals, the annual natural growth value is also unstable. It increases annually from 0 to 36 years old, decreases annually from 36 to 46 years old, and returns to 0 at 46 years old, meaning the bloodline concentration no longer increases.

After the age of 46, it will turn negative, meaning bloodline concentration will begin to slowly decrease.

Of course, the ages of 36 and 46 mentioned above are approximate ranges. Different people have different 'age thresholds' and natural growth values.

So, some people can reach the fifth grade, while others can only reach the sixth grade, creating a significant difference in talent.

The standard for determining the quality of bloodlines is quite simple: the concentration of blood required for the "Intermediate State" is set as the threshold for "Fifth Grade," then divided into one million parts, with each part being one Ma. Different grades increase by tenfold.

In other words, one hundred Ma is Ninth Grade, one thousand Ma is Eighth Grade, ten thousand Ma is Seventh Grade, one hundred thousand Ma is Sixth Grade, and to truly achieve the transformative evolution of one's own abilities, known as the "Intermediate State," one must reach one million Ma.

"So, if we're killing 'monsters' here, we're gaining around 10 Ma each night," Cheng Jinyang began calculating. "I'm still 200 Ma short of reaching the eighth grade, which means it'll take around 20 days."

"However, to reach the seventh grade, it'll take about 900 days, which is less than 3 years; the sixth grade requires around 25 years; and the fifth grade is..."

"You've calculated it wrong," Xing Yuanzhi reminded him, "At 18 years old, the normal growth value of a person's bloodline concentration is around 2 Ma per week; as age increases, the natural growth rate also increases."

"So, if we continue to be trapped in the 'Weird Grade Demons' level, soon the benefits from killing monsters won't be enough to drive our subsequent grade growth."

"We must find a way to deal with the 'Ghost Grade Demons,'" Xing Yuanzhi concluded.

"So, have you come up with any solutions? Wait a moment..." Cheng Jinyang suddenly heard a knocking sound from outside the study, so he told the two girls and went to open the door.

Outside the door stood Su Lili, with a smile as bright as flowers, holding a basin of clean grapes.

"Jinyang, can I come in?" she asked.

"Well..." Cheng Jinyang hesitated, but Wang Wanrou intervened:

"She can come in if she wants. I'll need her for my plan later."

So he let Su Lili into the study, and even pulled out a chair for her.

"Are the two sisters you mentioned here?" Su Lili looked around in confusion.

In her sight, there was nothing but Cheng Jinyang.

"Ahem, yes," Cheng Jinyang coughed and said, "It's just that you can't see them."

Su Lili felt a bit lost, but she quickly cheered up:

"Anyway, as long as I can see Jinyang, it's okay!"

"There is no doubt that Su Lili is an extremely special existence in this dreamland," Wang Wanrou lazily leaned back in her chair and said, "During this time, we have fully confirmed that even ghost-level monsters will consciously avoid her."

"So, what you're saying is, we can choose to bring Su Lili with us, thus avoiding most of the demon attacks, to explore areas outside of Wujiang Town, such as driving east to the outskirts of Songjiang, and then temporarily settling her nearby. We can then go on a large-scale hunt for puppet demons to gain more bloodline growth points."

So, you mean using Su Lili to break through the advanced demons outside Wujiang Town, thereby switching to a more efficient map?

Cheng Jinyang turned to her, feeling a little reluctant.

However, Xiaoli tilted her head cutely and asked, "What did they say? Are they asking me to do something?"

"Um," Cheng Jinyang carefully considered his tone, then smiled gently and asked, "Would you like to go out for a walk with me?"

"Scumbag," Xing Yuanzhi couldn't help but say.

But Xiaoli immediately shivered and buried her head into her knees:

"No."

"Why?" Cheng Jinyang was dumbfounded.

"Outside, there are demons." Su Lili muttered, "I dare not go out."

"She said outside there are demons, and she dares not go out." Cheng Jinyang had to relay it to the two girls.

Wang Wanrou bluntly asked, "Then ask her, how did she end up here after staying at your place for so long?"

"I don't know." After listening to Cheng Jinyang's conveyed words, Su Lili shook her head blankly.

"What do you mean you don't know?" Wang Wanrou furrowed her brow.

"If I don't know, then I just don't know," Su Lili reiterated with another shake of her head.

"Anyway, you're just too scared to go out, right?" Wang Wanrou sneered, "Then just knock her out and take her out."

"It's not possible," Cheng Jinyang said.

"You're just being too soft-hearted," Wang Wanrou said.

"I refuse to do something unbecoming of a gentleman!" Cheng Jinyang was resolute, indicating there was absolutely no room for negotiation. "We're fighting demons, not dragging a helpless girl into this mess."

"Stop arguing," Xing Yuanzhi sighed. "Let me talk to her, Jinyang, you can help convey our message."

"Alright," Cheng Jinyang agreed.

"You ask Lili," Xing Yuanzhi said. "We and Jingyang are leaving Wujiang Town, ask her if she wants to come along."

When Cheng Jingyang relayed this, Su Lili immediately hesitated.

Going out... No, we'll be killed by demons!

But if I stay here, I won't see Jingyang...

So she, like a small animal, hugged her legs in distress, curling up as if caught in a struggle between heaven and earth.

Cheng Jinyang, seeing her indecision, persuaded her:

"Xiao Li, actually, the demons outside aren't that scary. We've already killed many of them."

"In that case," Su Lili gathered her courage and asked, "if I go out, will Jinyang protect me?"

"Of course!" Cheng Jinyang said without hesitation, smiling, "Rest assured, even if it costs my life, I will protect Xiaoli."

What a scumbag..... Xing Yuanzhi couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Knowing that in this world you can infinitely resurrect, yet shamelessly saying things like "risking your life," is really like a scumbag. That naive and innocent girl, Su Lili, is probably completely fooled by him.

However, contrary to Xing Yuanzhi's expectations, Su Lili just shook her head worriedly:

"Jinyang, I don't want you to risk your life. I just want you to take good care of yourself... Can't you refrain from fighting against demons?"

"Sorry," Cheng Jinyang didn't know what else to say.

He even felt a little ashamed: after all, for himself, Ah Zhi, and Miss Wang, killing demons would bring significant growth in strength, so the three of them were fully aware of the risks they were taking and the rewards they would gain before they resolutely threw themselves into battle with the demons.

However, Su Lili... her only desire was to be together with him.

In addition, she has nothing left, and can't get anything. Yet you want to take advantage of her only small hope to persuade her to go on an adventure with you?

"Never mind." Cheng Jinyang stood up and said to Ah Zhi and Miss Wang, "Let her stay here."

"But..." Xing Yuanzhi was somewhat surprised, still wanting to say something.

"I've made up my mind," Cheng Jinyang said seriously.

Though his voice was not loud, his tone was undeniably firm, leaving no room for doubt, which made the other two immediately understand his determination, realizing there was no way to persuade him otherwise.

"Fine then," Wang Wanrou stood up, "do as you wish, great hero."

Xing Yuanzhi sighed and walked towards the study door.

Just before stepping out, she couldn't help but turn back and ask:

"Jinyang, you once said..."

"...Don't indulge yourself in false and beautiful illusions. Do you remember?"
