Chapter 63#
World 3: Everything You Snatch Is What I Don’t Want#
Five years later, a private jet slowly took off from a military airport in an African country. Inside the cabin, two distinct groups of people sat on the left and right sides.
One group wore camouflage uniforms, all with dark skin and tall, imposing figures. The tallest man among them was impatiently taking off his combat uniform, revealing a muscular body clad only in a black tank top.
His hair was cut very short, wet with sweat and messed up by his palm, looking wild and unruly. His features were deep as if carved, and his pitch-black eyes overflowed with cold and sharp light. His long legs were spread wide, sitting boldly, his strong arms casually resting on his thighs, his back slightly arched, tightening blocks of beautiful, smooth, and explosive muscles.
The man was like a bloodthirsty and cruel beast, his cold, gleaming eyes glancing casually at the man sitting opposite him.
The man opposite had cold white skin and an elegant temperament, wearing a retro black suit. His features were equally deep and three-dimensional, but more exquisite and magnificent. He crossed his long legs, leaning lazily against the back of the chair, one hand supporting his forehead as if in deep thought, the other hand resting casually on the armrest, his well-defined fingers tapping the armrest surface intermittently.
Tap tap, tap tap, tap tap…
The fingertips hitting the surface made a rhythmic soft sound, highlighting the man’s calmness, laziness, and aloof arrogance.
Behind him also sat a group of subordinates, all in sharp suits and solemn expressions.
Not knowing what he thought of, the hand supporting his forehead touched the collar of his shirt, lazily unbuttoning two buttons, hooking out a thin necklace with his fingertips, pinching the not-so-expensive yellow diamond pendant, and stroking it unconsciously.
Seeing him like this, the wild man sitting opposite also touched the platinum necklace around his neck. The pendant of the necklace was a pitch-black glass ball, wrapped tightly and protected by thorny vines made of platinum.
The wild man stroked the pendant, his cold eyebrows becoming incredibly gentle.
These two were Ye Rongzheng and Mu Feiyan.
Mu Feiyan glanced at Ye Rongzheng and asked, “Are you thinking about Qin Qing?”
“Nonsense! Who else would I think about?” Ye Rongzheng frowned, his face full of hostility.
Mu Feiyan squeezed the yellow diamond tightly and sneered, “I actually didn’t want to come save you at all.”
“Do you think I wanted to save you?” Ye Rongzheng raised his chin, his face full of disdain.
“Without my connections, could you enter this airport?” Mu Feiyan asked even more disdainfully.
“Without my men, could you leave that hellhole of the Altai Mountains safely?” Ye Rongzheng was aggressive.
“If Qin Qing hadn’t called me—”
They said this sentence almost simultaneously, then locked eyes fiercely. Not knowing how long they stared at each other, when the atmosphere gradually became heated and carried a hint of gunpowder smoke of impending battle, they looked away at the same time.
“I brought out some precious seeds from the Altai Mountains; Qin Qing will definitely like them.” Ye Rongzheng took out a cotton bag from his pocket and tossed it triumphantly.
Mu Feiyan curled his lips and said lazily, “It’s a pity you couldn’t bring out the seeds of the most precious snow crystal flower in the Altai Mountains.”
With that, he opened his palm and hooked his fingertips slightly.
A subordinate sitting behind him immediately handed over a small velvet gift box. After the lid was opened, a dark brown flower seed lay quietly inside.
“Do you think my one gift can outweigh all your gifts?” Mu Feiyan gently fiddled with the flower seed with his fingertips, his attitude very relaxed.
A layer of dark clouds covered Ye Rongzheng’s wild and unruly face. Mu Feiyan’s magnificent and exquisite face showed a triumphant smile.
Invisibly, cold and hot air currents collided in the cabin, sparking hostile sparks.
The two groups of people on the left and right also became tense.
This tense atmosphere lasted until the plane landed in another small African country. War was still spreading in the surrounding areas; no matter which direction they went, they could be affected by guns or missiles.
Ye Rongzheng and Mu Feiyan stood by the tarmac, taking out their phones to report their safety to their beloved. They were mortal enemies, yet with just one word from Qin Qing, they could discard all hostility and go to the most dangerous place to save each other.
For no other reason than not to make Qin Qing sad.
“Let’s go separately.” After putting down the phone, the two spoke at the same time again, saying exactly the same words.
This tacit understanding was truly eerie.
Ye Rongzheng held an unlit cigarette in his mouth and said solemnly, “If we go separately and something happens to me, you go back and take care of Qin Qing for me.”
Mu Feiyan put his hands in his pockets, looking calmly at a bomb exploding into a black cloud in the distance.
“What a coincidence,” he smiled, “I thought the same. If something happens to me, please take care of Qin Qing.”
The two looked at each other, their calm faces occupied by thick hostility again.
“I hope the one who dies is you.”
“Me too.”
Malicious gazes collided in the air, actually more destructive than the flames of war.
The two smiled coldly, then walked to their respective private jets and flew towards different routes.
Several days later, Qin Qing brought 996 to D City Airport.
“Those two are really lucky; even bombs couldn’t kill them.” 996 kept shaking its head and sighing.
“So I didn’t steal their luck at all. Are you relieved now?” Qin Qing bent down and handed over the cone he had taken a bite of.
996 opened its bloody mouth and swallowed the entire cone instantly. No one noticed this strange person and cat; the restriction set by the Main God could confuse everyone’s audiovisual senses.
The two flights landed only five minutes apart. Amidst eager anticipation, two equally tall, equally handsome, but temperamentally different men strode out of the safety channel.
Seeing Qin Qing, both showed joyful smiles, but upon seeing each other, the smiles immediately faded, turning into hostility.
They slowly moved away from each other, standing at the east and west ends, while Qin Qing stood in the middle.
Qin Qing realized something and couldn’t help lowering his head, rubbing his throbbing temples while groaning helplessly.
996 licked the ice cream at the corner of its mouth and asked foolishly, “What’s wrong?”
“What must come will always come.”
Qin Qing turned his head to the east, looked at Ye Rongzheng, then turned to the west, looked at Mu Feiyan. Both men had their hands in their pockets, standing ten meters away from him in equally upright and stubborn postures.
“Baby, you must make a choice today,” Mu Feiyan said seriously.
Ye Rongzheng opened his arms, “Honey, I’m waiting for you.”
996: “Meow, I didn’t expect we came not to an airport, but to a Shura field!”
Qin Qing kept rubbing his temples, groaning low, his bewitching face showing a rare expression of embarrassment.
996 tugged at his pant leg and whispered, “How about this, you choose one, I choose one. At least we can’t let them make a trip for nothing, right?”
Even in such a tense moment, Qin Qing was almost amused by 996. He pursed his thin lips and looked up at the two again.
To the east was a wild lion, to the west was an elegant cheetah. Both were beasts, and both brought him strong throbbing and a sense of security.
How to choose?
Qin Qing’s legs seemed bound by invisible ropes, not knowing how to take a step.
At the same moment, Yun Siyu, locked in a cell, was dreaming. He seemed to have sleeping sickness, lying in bed for more than ten hours a day. The prison guard sent him to see a doctor, but the doctor couldn’t find the cause, only prescribing some refreshing medicine.
Other prisoners envied him for being able to be lazy openly, but only he knew that he would rather never sleep than fall into a nightmare.
In those short ten-plus hours of sleep, he experienced endless torture. He was constantly ravaged by Mother Ye, his body becoming ruined, and constantly held up that burning painting, screaming in pain in the raging fire.
That was a hell of repeated reincarnation.
Yun Siyu sat up abruptly from the bed, his nose covered in cold sweat panting heavily. He raised his hands and looked; the severe pain of burning fire still remained on them.
So, those dreams were not just dreams, right?
How can dreams make people feel pain?
Yun Siyu slowly arched his back, hugging his emaciated body tightly with trembling hands.
A familiar stinging pain came from the back of his neck.
He habitually scratched with his hand, scratching hard until the skin cracked and blood splattered. That green leaf birthmark had lost all vitality, turning into a charred black stain, dug out from his flesh by him, thrown on the ground in a bloody mess.
In this instant, Yun Siyu’s body disintegrated into countless black dust motes, scattering like mosquitoes and flies.
The whole world stopped turning at this moment.
At the airport, the extremely troubled Qin Qing suddenly looked up at the void.
A sound of shattering glass boomed in the air.
Ye Rongzheng and Mu Feiyan, standing at the east and west ends, both changed their expressions, then ran towards Qin Qing standing in the middle together.
Time and space solidified into a block of transparent ice. Every step they ran, they had to smash through the hard ice layer, causing their flesh and blood bodies to be cut by space-time fragments. When they finally reached Qin Qing, both were scarred and covered in blood. They simultaneously extended their strong arms, propping up a corner for Qin Qing that would absolutely not collapse.
Their bodies were frozen in time and space, but also condensed into a barrier strong enough to withstand all harm. Standing under their arms, Qin Qing was safe.
The surroundings were dead silent.
996 turned its round head quickly, looking at this scene in horror.
“Qin Qing, what happened meow?” Its little milky voice trembled slightly.
“The plot has ended,” Qin Qing said calmly.
996 looked up and saw Qin Qing’s tear-wet, slightly red eyes. He was held tightly in the middle by two tall men in a protective posture, two pairs of arms protecting his head and body respectively.
All harm was blocked by the flesh and blood bodies of these two men. their eyes were still gazing at Qin Qing, their pupils overflowing with worry and love so thick it couldn’t dissolve.
They had both said they would support this world for Qin Qing, shield him from wind and rain, and step forward for him.
Now, they did it.
This was their last tenderness.
Qin Qing covered his eyes, standing silently.
After an unknown amount of time, he put down the hand covering his eyes, looked at these two men nostalgically, then stood on tiptoe, kissed Ye Rongzheng’s thin lips, and then kissed Mu Feiyan’s thin lips.
Even though they were frozen in time and space, because of this wet and hot kiss, their eyes still leaked satisfied smiles.
Qin Qing gently stroked Ye Rongzheng’s face, then stroked Mu Feiyan’s face, tracing their handsome features bit by bit with his slender fingertips. He was remembering, even knowing they would meet again in the next time and space.
The flowers behind his shoulders bloomed fiercely, like fire, like stars, like lava.
This was the hottest and most beautiful love they gave him.
“Goodbye,” Qin Qing whispered, kissing their ears nostalgically.
Just then, the two necklaces worn around Ye Rongzheng and Mu Feiyan’s necks emitted brilliant golden light, then automatically flew into Qin Qing’s palm.
Qin Qing held the two balls of golden light, pressing them against his thumping chest. The next second, time and space flowed again, and the scene changed accordingly. Qin Qing and 996, who were originally standing in the crowded airport, instantly appeared in the Main God’s space.
“We’re out just like that?” 996’s head was still dizzy, not knowing what happened just now.
Qin Qing was very calm, walking slowly towards that miniature universe, standing on tiptoe, extending his arms, and sending those two necklaces out.
“What are you doing?” 996 asked curiously.
The two necklaces turned into two stars rising slowly, flying into the miniature universe, twinkling and emitting light. They seemed to be winking at Qin Qing.
Qin Qing smiled, his slightly red eyes covered with tear mist, yet overflowing with tenderness.
He reached out to embrace this huge egg-shaped universe but only touched a little bit of its edge. But a warm current surged from the depths of the universe, surrounding him, as if an invisible chest was accepting his devotion.
All the stars were twinkling, responding to the most beautiful and brightest star outside this universe.
996 looked at this scene in astonishment.
The intellectual brain emitted a cold mechanical voice, telling it that the mission had been perfectly accomplished.
“Meow, the plot collapsed completely, yet the mission was perfectly accomplished? Are these two light spots also origin fragments?” 996’s little brain couldn’t process such a huge amount of information.
What exactly are origin fragments? Why did they appear on Ye Rongzheng and Mu Feiyan? What use does the Main God have for them? How could Qin Qing collect origin fragments? what magic did he use?
996 couldn’t figure it out, so it stopped thinking.
When Qin Qing embraced that huge egg-shaped universe, the two-colored roses behind his shoulders also turned into viscous liquid, soaking into his soul.
Those wounds that couldn’t be healed no matter what—knife marks, whip marks, sword marks… were slowly being repaired. One day, they would be smoothed out by all the love.
Qin Qing’s soul, which was about to fade, became a bit more solid at this time.
He let go of the egg-shaped universe, walked slowly to 996, and urged, “Let’s go to the next world.”
996 raised its little head and said foolishly, “Qin Qing, you seem to have become more beautiful! Why meow?”
Qin Qing replied, “My soul is slowly repairing, my petals are unfolding one by one. A blooming flower naturally looks better than a small bud.”
996 suddenly realized, then said nervously, “Qin Qing, do you know, you are very dangerous now!”
“Why? There shouldn’t be any danger here.” Qin Qing looked at the Main God space.
996 said seriously, “Because if this goes on, you’ll be dangerously beautiful!”
Qin Qing was stunned for a moment, then amused.
This little stupid cat…
One person and one cat walked towards the time tunnel joking.
996 shook its fat butt and asked curiously, “You mean you will become more and more beautiful? I can’t imagine it meow! If you get any more beautiful, this universe will explode because of you!”
It didn’t know at all that this thoughtless sentence actually triggered the explosion of the huge miniature universe behind them. All stars emitted brilliant light at this instant.
This brilliant glow like the sun forcibly swallowed all surrounding shadows. Qin Qing’s beauty made the universe dizzy too.
However, at the same moment, Qin Qing just stepped into the time-space tunnel and was swallowed by an extremely bright halo.
The stars were confessing with their starlight, but were not seen by the one they loved most. But it didn’t matter; one day he would know that in the deepest darkness, there were so many hot stars burning desperately for him.
This was an empty room; all furnishings inside were pure white, only the sky shown outside the huge floor-to-ceiling window was gray.
Flying cars whizzed past the window, drilling into thick dark clouds, and airships passed by leisurely in the distant horizon.
Tower-like buildings pierced through the clouds, reaching into the endless sky. Qin Qing stood by the window looking up, actually unable to see the tops of those buildings.
Lasers shot from somewhere used the dark clouds as a canvas, drawing lifelike 3D pictures: beautiful girls, cute animals, absurd monsters.
These pictures replaced neon lights, becoming the city’s new decorations.
Everything around carried a cold mechanical feel; green trees, colorful flowers, tender buds were completely absent.
Qin Qing almost suffocated. After reading the original owner’s memory, the suffocation felt even heavier.
This world was in the very distant future. Humans used the power of technology to break through the shackles of the atmosphere and began to explore the deeper universe continuously. Population exploded, the environment deteriorated, Earth was abandoned, and humans collectively migrated to distant outer space.
During the migration, humans encountered the Zerg race and engaged in fierce battles.
To win, humans used technology to modify their bodies and genes. The original two genders became six: alpha, Omega, beta, confusing Qin Qing and making him dizzy.
He slowly backed away, left the huge floor-to-ceiling window, looked down at his flat abdomen, and murmured in disbelief, “I’m actually a man who can give birth?”
The impact of this terrible reality was no less than a bomb.
Calm as he was, he found it somewhat hard to accept at this moment.
Fortunately, he soon learned from memory that although the original owner was an Omega, he had no glands and couldn’t secrete pheromones, so he didn’t have the function of giving birth either.
Qin Qing exhaled slowly, then collapsed onto the pure white sofa, holding his forehead weakly.
This world was too absurd!
Omegas were also graded. The higher the grade of the Omega, the more they could attract top alphas and the more privileges they obtained.
Omegas were physically weak and couldn’t undertake important social responsibilities, but the pheromones they secreted could repair alphas’ spiritual domains.
The more top-level the alpha, the more violent the power of their spiritual domain. Only smelling the pheromones of a top Omega could bring them peace.
If a top alpha couldn’t find a top Omega with a compatibility of over 70%, they would soon become crippled or even die suddenly due to the collapse of their spiritual domain.
Top alphas had terrifying combat power and were the backbone of the fight against the Zerg. To maintain the empire’s combat power, every Omega had to send their pheromones to the matching center for pairing with numerous alphas the moment they differentiated.
Top Omega pheromones could soothe the spiritual domains of the lowest alphas, and also the highest alphas. They seemed omnipotent, so they were often the most sought-after marriage partners and the treasures carefully protected by the empire.
Every top Omega could obtain privileges unimaginable to ordinary people the moment they differentiated. They could freely enter and exit the most luxurious places in the empire, enjoy the best treatment without working, and even ignore the law at certain times.
If a top Omega had a compatibility of over 90% with two or three, or even four or five top alphas simultaneously, they could practically walk sideways in the empire.
To soothe the violence of their spiritual domains, and to avoid becoming crippled or dying suddenly, these top alphas would gather around this Omega and become his guardians.
This special guardianship relationship would end when the Omega married one of the guardians.
The law protected this temporary contract relationship. If anyone destroyed this relationship, they would be severely punished: exiled to a barren star, imprisoned for life, whipped, executed…
In short, as long as the compatibility between a top Omega and a top alpha reached 90%, their relationship would be unbreakable.
Qin Qing was an Omega, but unfortunately, he was neither top nor low level.
He had no glands at all; perhaps calling him a useless person was more appropriate. Fortunately, he was born a noble, and his innate social status saved him from being rejected and despised by too many people, but his life was still not easy.
Knowing his situation, Qin Qing didn’t feel a headache. Instead, he poured a glass of red wine and sipped it lazily.
Sending pheromones to the matching center to pair with those so-called alphas, is this the correct way to marry? This is livestock breeding.
The red wine swayed back and forth in Qin Qing’s slender fingers, emitting a slightly bitter and sweet woody and fruity aroma.
When he closed his eyes and gently sniffed this faint fragrance, 996 popped out from somewhere and screamed, “Five Tops! There are actually five Tops in this world! Help! Where is my oxygen tank!”
It hurriedly took out an oxygen tank from the intellectual brain’s storage compartment, shoved it onto its big flat face, its fleshy little chest heaving violently.
“Qin Qing, don’t tell me you want all five Tops!” 996 collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath.
Qin Qing, who almost worried his hair white in the last world: “…”
“Show me the script.” He forced himself to be calm.
If all five Tops were deities, then…
Qin Qing closed his eyes, feeling the world spin. Asking him to give up was impossible; asking him to grab them all would probably cost lives, right?
996 took out a long strip of jade slip from the storage compartment.
Qin Qing pressed the jade slip against his forehead and quickly read the script.
The protagonist bottom of this world was Qin Qing’s illegitimate younger brother.
The brothers differentiated on the same day, but Qin Qing’s glands didn’t develop, while the illegitimate brother became a top Omega.
The brother’s pheromones were immediately sent to the matching center. Upon testing, he was actually paired with five top alphas simultaneously. Their compatibility was as high as 90%!
The five top alphas came from the military, political, and business circles respectively, and all were favored sons of heaven. The power they held combined was enough to shake the foundation of the entire empire.
After the news spread, it caused a shock in the whole society. Qin Qing’s father immediately brought the illegitimate son and mistress home, holding a grand banquet to announce their existence.
People of despicable character and lowly status, once ascending to high positions, inevitably show arrogant attitudes. Naturally, the illegitimate brother began to trample on Qin Qing crazily, wantonly plundering everything of Qin Qing’s. Whatever Qin Qing liked, even if he just glanced at it inadvertently, he would grab it to play with and then destroy.
Unfortunately, what Qin Qing liked most was actually one of the five alphas bound to the illegitimate brother. He loved the other party madly, willing to die for him.
That person’s name was Yin Bozhou, the empire’s strongest and only SSS-level alpha.
Yin Bozhou was the commander of the Central Army, holding a pivotal position in the empire, and was also exceptionally tall and handsome.
The original owner was smart and was admitted to the Imperial Military Academy by his own ability. After graduation, he became a military doctor and was quite talented in pharmacy.
To get Yin Bozhou, the original owner developed a potion. After injection, one could briefly possess pheromones, thereby achieving the purpose of seducing an alpha.
The original owner injected this potion and locked himself with Yin Bozhou. Unexpectedly, the illegitimate brother suddenly arrived, interrupted his good deed, and escorted him to the military court.
The original owner was sentenced to two hundred lashes. After the execution, he was left permanently disabled, unable to walk on his legs again. At this time, a top alpha appeared and proposed to the original owner.
The desperate original owner grabbed this life-saving straw. But facts proved that straw is just straw; it cannot support the weight of a drowning person at all.
The person this top alpha loved deeply was the illegitimate brother, and his willingness to marry the original owner was also instructed by the illegitimate brother. He married the original owner not for redemption, but for torture. Mentally, physically, and even spiritually, constant torture.
Unable to bear this cruel torture, the original owner finally chose to commit suicide on a rainy night. He paid the price of his life for his secret love.
Who the illegitimate brother ended up with was not written in the script, but a hint was given.
Since none of the five Tops were willing to give up the illegitimate brother, after a fierce contest, one of the Tops proposed peaceful coexistence, and the other four could only nod in agreement.
At the end, the illegitimate brother stood by the sea watching the sunset, with five guardian gods standing side by side behind him.
“Catching all five people with the strongest luck in one net, this flea is even greedier than I imagined.” Qin Qing curled his lips, smiling with interest.
996 said worriedly, “Qin Qing, this world is not easy to handle! If you dare to snatch the protagonist Top, the law will definitely sanction you!”
