The two beautiful women looked like flowers made of jade, and Han Sen couldn’t turn his back on either of them. He wasn’t their enemy, so he couldn’t simply choose which one should die.

But when he thought about the arrogant, perfectionist, blood-thirsty being they combined to become, he knew that he had to do something. It wasn’t just the other races of the universe that would fall under their wrath—eventually, they would go after humans as well.

“What should we do?” Han Sen looked at Gu Qingcheng and then at Elysian Moon. They looked extremely similar to each other. Their presences, however, were different.

Gu Qingcheng was mysterious, but she didn’t distance herself from everyone. Elysian Moon was as cold as ice, and looking at her gave people the feeling that they were being shut out. Han Sen could tell the two apart, though, and he would never mistake one for another.

When they both combined and became one, their presence was completely different. The woman they made felt like a fairy. She was a being that didn’t care about anything in the world. That coldness was chilling to see.

“Which of us do you choose to kill?” Elysian Moon asked when Han Sen remained silent.

“I’m not killing anyone. To be honest, even if I agreed to kill you, I don’t think that’s something I could make myself do.” Han Sen shook his head.

“Then would you prefer to watch us fight each other to death or die of old age?” Elysian Moon asked emotionlessly.

“That doesn’t matter. I think there might be a road out of this mess. It is worth a try, at least,” Han Sen said hesitantly.

“What road do you mean?” Elysian Moon and Gu Qingcheng looked up with interest.

After a moment of thought, Han Sen said, “The aging problem is being caused by the flaws in your genes. If you can fix these flaws, then there is no reason for you to fight to your doom.”

Gu Qingcheng shook her head. “If things were that simple, we wouldn’t have been fighting in the first place. My genes are included in Elysian Moon’s spirit stone. And Elysian Moon’s genes contain the sword fairy I created. We both have a part of each other, and because of that, parts of ourselves are missing. We can’t use the genes of other creatures to fix problems that are inherent in our own.”

“I know.” Han Sen nodded, sighed, and said, “My method isn’t for you to combine with the genes of another creature. My method can fix your genes as they are.”

“What do you mean? If we could fix our genes, we wouldn’t be stuck in this situation,” Elysian Moon said, tilting her head to the side.

“You’re both missing a part of yourselves, and the parts you’re missing are the parts you gave to each other. That means you aren’t complete. But, you both still contain the missing components of each other. All you need to do is fill in the gaps. I can try to activate both of your gene potentials, which might allow your incomplete genes to repair themselves. I’m not sure if it will work, but it is something we should at least try.” The method Han Sen was proposing would require the power of the Blood-Pulse Sutra’s area. He would push their self-cogwheels in an attempt to force their genes to evolve.

1The Blood-Pulse Sutra’s area power was little more than a nudge. Whether or not it worked would be determined by the possibilities harbored by the genes that required fixing. Therefore, Han Sen couldn’t promise that he would succeed. It was a chance for them, though. It was something they had to try before they resorted to the more sordid solutions.

If it worked, they could both live.

“You can fix the flaws of our genes?” Gu Qingcheng and Elysian Moon’s beautiful eyes were staring at Han Sen.

“I can’t promise you it will work, but there is no harm in trying,” Han Sen said.

“Try it, then,” Elysian Moon said immediately.

“We’ll test it on you first. Come over here,” Han Sen said, looking at Elysian Moon.
