Gates of the Myriad Realms Chapter 347

The little girl disappeared.

Shen Ye couldn’t quite grasp her attitude, but from the outcome, she didn’t stop him.

Perhaps…

This was also what she yearned for back then.

Dark personality, after all.

Coinciding with his violent actions.

Suddenly.

The bus, the corpses, the highway.

Everything flashed past.

Shen Ye found himself standing in a messy basement.

Light.

Sunlight shone through the skylight, more than five meters high, landing on her face.

She suddenly startled, lowered her head, and extended her hand.

Her arm was longer, more slender.

Her hand gently stroked her face, then wiped in the air, releasing an ice shard.

In the ice shard mirror.

The youthful appearance of an eight or nine-year-old girl was unmistakably revealed.

…Grown up.

Shen Ye put away the ice shard mirror, feeling a slight sigh of emotion.

—It seems this is the next painful node that will leave a deep impression on Nancy.

She walked back and forth in the basement, only to find the door locked and the space behind her very narrow, only six or seven square meters.

So, solitary confinement?

But with Nancy’s talent, why would she be confined?

Taking advantage of the fact that nothing had happened yet, she pulled up her attribute points to take a look.

“Current Attributes (Fifth Layer of the Dharma Realm):”

“Strength: 120;”

“Agility: 120;”

“Spirit: 115;”

“Insight: 130;”

“Resonance: 295; (Moonlit Lineage Resonance +20);”

“Available Free Attribute Points: 10.”

The basic attributes were quite high.

But the free attribute points were simply not enough.

What a pity.

The Demon of Fear’s three curses were really disruptive.

Otherwise, he would have already collected enough terms and converted enough free attribute points.

Shen Ye shook her head slightly.

He couldn’t deal with it right now.

Later!

Click—

A turning sound came from the door lock.

The heavy iron door opened.

A woman composed entirely of machinery appeared outside the door.

—Like Nancy’s parents, only her head remained human, her body was completely mechanized.

“Nancy, in these 21 days of solitary confinement, have you realized your mistake?”

The woman asked sternly.

Shen Ye was stunned and couldn’t help but look back at the solitary confinement room behind her.

Narrow.

Silent.

Claustrophobic.

To make an eight or nine-year-old girl stay in such a place alone for 21 days?

It would be strange if she didn’t go crazy!

“The mistake I made…” Shen Ye deliberately left the sentence unfinished.

Usually, at such times, others would complete the second half of the sentence.

The woman indeed continued:

“Yes, you made the mistake of stealing a classmate’s belongings.”

Shen Ye showed a look of surprise.

Nancy steals things too?

“I won’t steal other people’s things anymore,” Shen Ye said in a sincere tone.

The woman nodded in satisfaction and turned to say:

“Come with me.”

She led the girl through a long, oppressive and enclosed corridor, into a large hall.

To be honest, this hall looked a bit like a school auditorium from his previous life.

Today seemed to be a day for assembly and meetings.

The hall was filled with students.

Shen Ye was led onto the high platform, to the microphone.

“Speak, confess your mistakes to everyone, and show your intention to repent.”

The woman said.

Shen Ye looked at the dense crowd below, her expression a little lost.

At this moment.

She found her body trembling slightly, her heart felt like it was being torn apart, and tears were almost uncontrollable.

…Why?

This body belonged to Nancy, and she was just a personality temporarily controlling the body.

The body’s reaction was so strong, something must have happened.

Shen Ye looked up.

She saw an eight or nine-year-old girl floating in mid-air, her eyes filled with tears, silently watching this scene.

Negative personality!

Shen Ye immediately became serious and spoke into the microphone:

“That… I was put in solitary confinement for stealing things. Please show the stolen item, so that my repentance will appear more sincere.”

On the rostrum, the others nodded.

Soon.

A structure built with simple wooden strips was displayed before everyone.

Shen Ye held her breath.

Although this structure looked dirty and inexpensive, a lot of thought had clearly gone into it.

Every wooden strip and rivet was placed just right, so much so that when one gently pushed it with a hand, it could even slowly rotate with “creaking” sounds.

—This was a Ferris wheel.

In the small room at the top of the Ferris wheel, cotton wrapped in cloth was fashioned into the figures of two little girls.

Shen Ye let out a slight breath, feeling relieved.

If it were anything else, she couldn’t be sure if Nancy had stolen it.

But this Ferris wheel—

In this era, at this time, Sophie should already be dead, right?

That was Nancy’s eternal regret.

Only she would put so much effort into making such a Ferris wheel.

Nancy didn’t steal anything!

“Excuse me, whose toy is this?”

Shen Ye asked loudly.

The female teacher asked uncertainly, “Are you going to—”

“Apologize in person,” Shen Ye said.

“Very well, the few of you stand up,” the female teacher said.

Four female students rose from the crowd, looking smugly at Shen Ye on the stage.

But the next second.

Their smugness turned into terror.

On the high platform, the girl leaped up and pounced on them.

Screams. Shouts. Loud warnings. Reprimands.

Countless voices rose.

But none of them could stop the girl’s pounce.

She easily knocked the four girls to the ground, hitting their faces, stomachs, and limbs with force.

When the teachers rushed over—

The four girls were already bruised and broken, their bones shattered.

“Damn it!”

A female teacher reached out to grab the girl.

A burst of lightning appeared in the girl’s hand, and with a flick of her wrist, she sent the female teacher flying.

Not only that.

She stood still, both hands erupting with a colossal ball of lightning, blazing like the sun, easily a person’s height in diameter, with threads of electric snakes and blue light occasionally escaping from it.

“I said, who has an opinion that Ferris wheel was made by me?”

Shen Ye said.

On the rostrum, the woman sitting in the middle stood up and roared:

“Bullshit! Damn it, your reflection isn’t enough! Before you make a grave mistake—”

Boom!!!

A huge explosion covered the entire hall.

It turned out that a lightning ball had been thrown by Shen Ye, piercing through the auditorium’s ceiling, erupting with destructive thunder outside.

—Thunder Palm!

With his current strength, the power of releasing Thunder Palm again was incomparable!

The strong wind poured into the auditorium.

The impact of the energy sent the students scrambling and rolling away in disarray.

The lightning gradually dissipated.

The girl still stood there.

One of her hands returned to normal, the other cradled the remaining lightning ball. She glanced at the four people lying on the ground, unable to move, and said:

“Sorry, I originally intended to take out these four guys with one hit, but my hand slipped by accident.”

“But I still have one lightning ball left here.”

A slender, pale hand.

Gripping the lightning orb, it was raised high.

The destructive aura of the lightning spread out.

Now.

If she just pressed her hand down—

The four people would die.

The girl’s lips curved into an arc, and she looked towards the rostrum, saying:

“—What were you saying just now?”

On the rostrum.

The woman in the white robe shouted:

“Nancy, you have committed a grave sin. This cuts off your path to heaven, causing you to fall into a ghost, with no pure and holy path left.”

The girl was about to speak.

Lines of faint light quickly appeared before her eyes:

“The current dark personality has taken control of the body.”

“It borrowed your skills.”

“Once everything is completed, it might start to trust you.”

Shen Ye suddenly found that he couldn’t control his hand.

Boom!!!

The lightning ball slammed down hard.

The ground shook.

The four people died instantly, blood oozing from their orifices, their bodies still twitching.

“See, you wouldn’t even say a reasonable word, so they died, and it’s all your fault.”

The girl’s voice became hoarse.

“You killed them! You can never go to heaven!” the woman on the high platform roared.

The girl remained oblivious, picking up a corpse from the ground and whispering:

“Come, tell them, whose Ferris wheel is it?”

The corpse spoke:

“It’s yours. We deliberately made things difficult for you, so we falsely accused you. The teacher is on our side and will surely punish you severely.”

“Why was the teacher on your side?” the girl continued to ask.

“We often give gifts to the teacher,” the corpse said.

The girl let go, and the corpse dropped.

The entire hall fell silent.

The girl said mischievously:

“Alright, now you can’t go to heaven.”

After saying that, she burst into laughter, her voice like silver bells, yet as mournful as weeping blood, like the shrill cries of ghosts.

The strong wind passed.

All the sights disappeared.

A phantom flew out from the girl’s body and vanished into the air.

A voice sounded in Shen Ye’s ear:

“I am the negative personality formed from the previous two painful nodes. You have comforted me, and my heart has calmed slightly.”

“—Now, I believe you can do more.”

“Please change everything from the beginning.”

As the words fell.

Everyone disappeared.

The large hole in the auditorium’s ceiling was restored to its original state.

Shen Ye found himself still standing in the auditorium, where the tables and chairs were neatly arranged, and the windows were clean and bright.

—The body’s control was returned.

He sighed.

You killed someone, and after getting your satisfaction, you finally believed I could do it, and only then allowed me to get involved in the whole matter.

This is like some people who, when reading a book, are scared by dangerous plots and insist on flipping to the end to see the outcome before daring to read the dangerous parts confidently.

…Perhaps it’s more like an audition.

Alright.

Now that the audition is successful.

What is the full picture of what you want me to see?

The door to the grand auditorium opened.

A few girls appeared, laughing and playing as they walked towards Shen Ye.

—Among them were the girls who had been killed by the negative personality earlier.

So, this is before everything happened?

“Nancy.”

A girl called out.

“Is there something?” Shen Ye asked.

“Next time, don’t show off in exams. The top three rewards are arranged and don’t belong to you,” the girl said.

“I disagree,” Shen Ye said.

“This is what the teacher means,” the girl said.

“How could that be?” Shen Ye chuckled. “You covet those rewards, just say so. Why drag the teacher into it?”

“Because it’s true. The teacher believes you don’t have enough moral character and development prospects, so she hopes you won’t waste the school’s rewards anymore,” the other party said.

Shen Ye slowly stopped smiling.

The attitude and expressions of the people opposite him seemed to be genuine.

“Which teacher is it?”

Shen Ye asked.

“Teacher Bella,” the girl said.

Shen Ye said nothing, casually turned a chair, gathered all his strength, and threw it out savagely.

The chair instantly disappeared from everyone’s sight.

—Cross-world archery, Star Edge!

On the other side.

On the teaching building.

Teacher Bella suddenly noticed a spatial fluctuation.

“Enemy attack? Here? How is that possible!”

She assumed a defensive posture.

The next instant.

A chair emerged from the void and smashed towards her.

Crash—

Teacher Bella kicked the chair to pieces.

It was a chair?

She carefully examined the chair’s wreckage, then turned her head and looked towards the auditorium.

The chair was an auditorium seat.

The direction from which it flew was also the auditorium.

Then let’s go see.

Two minutes later.

Teacher Bella opened the door to the auditorium.

The scene before her left her stunned.

Several girls lay on the ground, groaning in pain.

“Nancy, what happened?”

“Hello, teacher. They said you wouldn’t let me do well in the exam and came to hit me, so this happened,” Shen Ye said.

“I did say that your development potential is quite limited, and you never cooperate with your classmates,” Bella said.

“Limited potential…” Shen Ye looked thoughtful, “Teacher, why are you so arrogant?”

Bella froze, her face quickly darkening:

“Nancy, do you know what you’re saying?”

“Of course I do, Teacher. Your talent is quite limited. You can’t even win against a nine-year-old me, can you?” Shen Ye said.

“Damn it, I’ll give you a profound lesson right now!”

Bella rushed up and threw a punch.

Shen Ye dodged sideways and kicked out.

Thud—

A kick of “Frostbite” sent the teacher flying, smashing through a wall, swirling, then crashing through another wall, and finally hitting the teaching building.

Dense ice fixed Bella to the teaching building, unable to move.

Such a commotion immediately attracted many people.

“Oh my god, Teacher Bella, what happened to you?”

“Who did this!”

“Quick, let’s rescue Bella first.”

The clamor outside did not affect Shen Ye.

She yawned, walked onto the rostrum, pulled up a chair, and sat there, waiting quietly.

Before long.

Several powerful teachers entered the auditorium.

“Nancy.”

Someone called out.

“I’m here,” Shen Ye said.

“…These girls and Teacher Bella, you hurt them all?”

“They started it first, and besides, they were too weak.”

The teachers exchanged glances.

The dean of students spoke up: “Nancy, violence is a human sin. If you want to get a mechanical modification spot and become incredibly powerful, you cannot act like this.”

“Teacher, it was them who wanted to deprive me of my spot, that’s why I retaliated,” Shen Ye said.

“But you can’t bully your classmates like this.”

Shen Ye smiled and continued in a gentle tone:

“Alright, let’s go back to the beginning. They threatened me first; I was just defending myself.”

The teachers discussed for a while.

Suddenly.

A girl on the ground spoke up: “Teacher, she stole our things!”

Here it comes!

So that’s where it all started.

Shen Ye looked at the girl.

The girl met her gaze, and for some reason, her heart was suddenly gripped by infinite fear, and she couldn’t help but shout:

“Nancy stole our things! Teacher, please provide justice!”

“Solitary confinement! 21 days!” a teacher announced.
