Chapter 408: A Scam from Ancient Times
Magic is like the sea, death is like fog, elements are like tiny points of light, and emotional energy is like silver filaments flying.

Of course, the essence is invisible and intangible. These cannot be seen with the naked eye, but can be perceived through the soul.

If I have to describe it specifically, it's like a higher-dimensional 'vision'.

If magic and elements are compared to an existence from four-dimensional space, it would be difficult to discover them from the perspective of three-dimensional space.

The dimension of death breath may be higher than the fourth dimension. Above the breath of death is the energy of faith and emotion.

People have a wrong understanding, always thinking that the higher the dimension, the more powerful it is.

In fact, this is not absolute.

Necromancers manipulate death energy, but they can also be beaten to a pulp by elemental mages.

Just as Lord Medusa of Yongye Territory said, as long as her magic power is strong enough, she can do what the gods can do through the power of faith, and she can also do what those gods who do not have enough power of faith cannot do.

Higher-level energies do not represent absolute power, but rather reflect their higher degree of mystery.

When Mu Hua obtained the gift of original sin, he was able to observe and absorb the jealousy of the outside world.

Well, for now he could only observe the rare silver-like 'jealousy', and let alone other original sin emotions, even some secondary emotional energies such as fear, joy, and sadness were still beyond Mu Hua's reach.

This may be the most essential difference between humans and monsters.

It is undeniable that original sin should be at the top of this world's energy system.

Magic and elements are everywhere, and the breath of death is either thin or thick, and it gathers in large groups. However, there is not much jealous energy that can be condensed into shape in the outside world.

If it weren't for the jealousy you had caused, Mu Hua would come to you directly. Through meditation and perception, he could use the touch of jealousy to "hook" some of the silver threads wandering around the outside world to his side for absorption.

Absorbing emotional energy does not require meditation, it is more like capturing it, which can perhaps be seen as another form of self-cultivation besides meditation.

But unfortunately, Mu Hua has not yet discovered the effect of this emotional energy on him. If the energy generated by jealousy is simply called the original sin of jealousy, Mu Hua can absorb the original sin of jealousy, but I don’t know what the use is...

Most monsters seek emotional energy in order to evolve, purify their bloodlines, or promote the fusion of multiple bloodlines in order to increase their own growth limit.

But humans, it seems, have no evolutionary map at all, and the so-called "human bloodline" is pure, with no such thing as purification or strengthening.

Mu Hua has obtained the talent of original sin, and can absorb the original sin of jealousy, but it is absorbed into the body and digested until there is no trace. It can neither be materialized like an element, nor can it be called upon.

Apart from the fact that it seems to make the body functions more active, Mu Hua has not yet found any practical use for this sin of jealousy, which sounds so high-sounding.

Even if they are useless, no matter whether it is the Death Breath that makes the Pale Lord, or the Touch of Jealousy, the Bite of Jealousy, or the Soul Tide that represents the ultimate regenerative ability, these are all powerful abilities with a very wide range of applications.

Mu Hua was very satisfied with the jealousy talent that was finally developed after so much trouble.

Today, Mu Hua can be said to be immune to all negative effects of mental interference, including the so-called "scam from ancient times".

But the problem is that the Jealousy Bite is only responsible for dealing with the malicious intent he encounters in the future, and does not care about the historical problems that Mu Hua had before he joined the company.

In fact, Mu Hua had originally hoped that the "ancient deception" in himself had been swallowed up and wiped out by the bite of jealousy, but the moment he saw Samantha, Mu Hua cried out in his heart, it's over, love has come...

Kill her!
When he discovered that the ancient scam had worked on Samantha, the first thought in Mu Hua's mind was to kill Samantha.

Love, this damn thing is no different from sex, it has so many impacts and involves so many aspects.

But, do we really want to kill Samantha?

Not really, and the impact of killing her seems to be no less than falling in love with her.

What should I do? Talk to her about it? Come on, aunt, let's have a love affair! If you let me have sex with you, Tabitha will be my daughter from now on.

Oh my god! Mu Hua felt like vomiting blood. Should we first find a big eagle as our contracted beast?
In the study room of the villa, Mu Hua was thinking about something, and his expression was uncertain and unpredictable. And from Samantha's point of view, Mu Hua's series of reactions probably showed that he was scared.

Samantha was confused and wanted to comfort Mu Hua, but she didn't know where to start: "Hey, I don't know what he misunderstood, why did he kill Ivy?"

"Mu Hua, did you really kill Ivy?" There was silence in the study for a moment, and Samantha asked Mu Hua.

"Yeah." Mu Hua responded, and while speaking, he took Ivy's body out of the space prop and threw it to the ground.

Killing a bastard child is no big deal? Oh, damn, love has come, for Mu Hua at this moment, killing a few bastard children is nothing.

When he threw Ivy's body, Mu Hua was worried that he would scare Samantha and that she would hate him. Mu Hua's mouth twitched and he cursed in his heart again.

There is no way I can live this day.

"..." Looking at Ivy's dead body lying on the ground, Samantha frowned and remained silent. Well, she was dead.

Looking at Mu Hua's conflicted face, and his expression that seemed to be either fear or guilt, Samantha adjusted her mood and thought that she should comfort Mu Hua first.

"Well, just kill them. Mu Hua, listen to me, I hate these illegitimate children of Holman, but I don't want to kill them. Even if I want to kill them, it shouldn't be you who does it."

Samantha motioned to Helen to put Ivy's body away first, walked to Mu Hua, patted Mu Hua's arm comfortingly, and spoke softly.

The gentle voice, the alluring fragrance, Mu Hua felt strange in his heart, and the pain on his face became even more intense.

Illegitimate child? He had no time to think about an illegitimate child now.

The 'ancient hoax' is not a curse in the conventional sense. Its psychological distortion is neither intuitive nor explicit, and it cannot distort Mu Hua's rationality.

At this moment, Mu Hua liked Samantha's voice, the smell of her body, and her every move, and his heart was moved, but he could also interpret them normally.

Mu Hua would worry about her and want to take care of her, but this kind of worry and care was not blind obedience to the other person's mindless dementia.

Simply put, it just made Mu Hua fall in love with Samantha at first sight.

Whether it is "Yue Lao's red string" or "Cupid's arrow", the so-called love is still a beautiful existence in the cognition of many intelligent beings.

Perhaps it is precisely because its effect is not extreme that its subtle effect is even stronger. Especially for humans, isn't it normal to fall in love with someone?

Fuck, this shouldn't be too normal. How can I break such a normal complex?
"You don't plan to kill those illegitimate children? Did you know that a prophet related to Betha appeared next to her?" Mu Hua frowned in the face of Samantha's comfort.

According to Mu Hua's original habit, since Samantha said so, he should just turn a blind eye to it and never mention it again.

But Mu Hua has lived two lives after all. Although he didn't live a good life in his previous life, he was still someone he loved.

Because he has loved and been taught a lesson by reality, he knows how ridiculous love is.

Mu Hua knew very well that if he ignored these things that were closely related to Samantha's future at this moment, she would probably be thinking about them day and night, which would bring him more trouble and entanglement.

"According to what Lin Feng said, Ivy and the others will collude with outsiders to seize the Benson family's assets. In the end, the outcome for them, you, and Betha will not be good. Even so, are you going to continue to let them go?"

The existence of the prophet made Samantha look surprised. Without changing the subject, Mu Hua directly told Samantha the future predicted by Lin Feng and asked her.

Unlike what Mu Hua had imagined, when Samantha heard the prophecy that the suspected illegitimate son would successfully seize power, her emotions became more natural.

With a faint smile on her lips, Samantha nodded as if she had gotten what she wanted.

"Hehe, I didn't intend to tell you this, but since this is the case, maybe there are some things I should let you know." Samantha giggled, with a hint of coldness in her eyes.

Along with the emotional fluctuations that were surging in her body, Mu Hua seemed to see a ghostly and howling night owl behind her.
