Chapter 96: Was This A Plug-in?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Yang Guan City.
A certain family.
A middle-aged man held a steady gaze as he looked at his children, “Are you ready for this battle?”
“Yes,” the two of them replied respectfully.
“Very good.”
The middle-aged man said in a cold voice, “The Lunar Shadow legacy is very important. You have to get it this time! Only in this way can our family become famous again!
Your uncle has gone to The First Academy to negotiate. In the eyes of outsiders, the Lunar Shadow Card is with him. If they want to grab it, they will go after him!”
But no one else knows that...
The card has always been with me!
Now I will give it to you for the time being, but before that, no one is allowed to go out.
Understood?
The middle-aged man said in a cold voice.
“Understood,” the two of them replied respectfully.
“Very good.”
The middle-aged man took out a wooden box carefully.
The two of them were full of anticipation. This was the Lunar Shadow Card! It was the Legacy Card that could help them to surpass their peers! As long as they could obtain the legacy...
Shush!
The wooden box was opened.
There was nothing in the box that was full of radiance and lights!
“Where’s the card?!”
The middle-aged man’s countenance changed.
How could that be possible?!
He definitely put it in the box!
His brother pretended to bring the card to negotiate, but he only brought a fake card with him. After all, he was by himself, while over here... this territory belonged to their family!
He had always kept the wooden box with him!
How could it go missing?
A mole?
Damn it!
For the sake of this legacy...
“Ah...!”
The middle-aged man was fuming mad.
Bang!
Bang!
He exploded in fury and his aura turned volatile. The furniture cracked under the strong vibration. His tremendous power was fearful. The surrounding people knelt down on the floor, shivering with fear.
Look into it!
Seal the gate!
If you can’t find it, no one can leave!”
...
Moments later.
Several kilometers away.
A figure kept spitting blood while he appeared out of nowhere, revealing a familiar face. If Lu Ming was around, he would have recognized him...
This was Chu Xiao!
There was a glowing card in his hands. It was the Lunar Shadow Card!
“Damn!
I was almost struck dead by the vibrations.”
Chu Xiao wiped the blood by the side of his mouth.
No one was able to match him in terms of his hiding and concealing abilities. But he was most fearful of those indiscriminate attacks. The powerful vibrations resulting from the loud yell made by the big shot just now almost killed him!
He remembered that...
He suffered similar shock and vibrations the previous time when he eavesdropped on a big shot on his wedding night...
Cough, cough.
Chu Xiao vomited blood again.
Some of his internal organs might have suffered injuries.
“Old Gao.”
Chu Xiao gave someone a call.
“Yes.”
The person on the other end of the phone was full of anticipation.
“The Lunar Shadow Card is with me.”
Chu Xiao sighed. “If you lose it again, I won’t help you anymore.”
“Thank you,” the other party said in a deep voice.
“This is what I owed you.”
Chu Xiao hung up the phone.
Sigh.
Debts of gratitude...
That was the most difficult debt to repay!
Back then he had owed Old Gao’s debts of kindness and right now he almost died returning the debts! Oh, he returned Lu Yan’s debts of kindness by doing a small favor for her and he almost died there!
He had a lot of grievances but he could not voice it out!
After all, she only asked him to send some stuff and to pass a message.
He had to put up with it!
“It’s still not too bad.”
“I finally don’t owe any debts anymore.”
Chu Xiao felt relieved.
Oh.
He was wrong.
He suddenly remembered that Lu Ming saved his life in Qing Ming City. He owed Lu Ming a favor for saving his life!
This was the biggest debt ever!
The only good thing was that Lu Ming was still very weak now. He was a two-star Card Creator, it was not likely that he would provoke others.
It was still okay.
However...
Right then, he could feel the shudders.
Eh?
Chu Xiao’s heart jumped a beat.
This feeling...
If one’s energy level had reached a certain stage, they would be very sensitive to danger, especially for Chu Xiao who was always in a life-and-death situation!
He was being targeted!
Danger...
The sense of danger enshrouded him.
“I have better keep a low profile these days.”
Chu Xiao thought about it before he canceled the next task decisively.
Shush!
There were many shadows.
He disappeared in a flash.
...
Somewhere.
Gao Tianlang hung up the phone.
Lunar Shadow Card...
He had finally gotten it!
The task that he entrusted Fu Hongming did not work out and Lunar Shadow Card ended up with Lu Yan. He almost missed the legacy. Thankfully, he had finally landed his hands on it!
Hehe.
How dare a small family with no background dare to take the Lunar Shadow Card?
They were too naive!
The Lunar Shadow legacy was one of the top-notch legacies!
He must not miss it!
It was a pity...
The remaining people had hidden too well and he had no idea where they were.
“Lu Yan...”
His gaze was steady.
I will definitely catch up with you!”
“Brother.”
A gentle voice could be heard.
“Xiaoqing!”
Gao Tianlang was somewhat surprised to see the lady at the door. “How’s your injury?”
“I can walk now.”
The lady smiled.
“Don’t worry.
“I will avenge you.”
There was a cold glitter in Gao Tianlang’s eyes.
“No need.”
The lady shook her head. “I want to handle this matter by myself.”
“Sure.”
Gao Tianlang nodded.
Very well.
This was the mindset that a cultivator should have!
He always felt that his younger sister was too kind-hearted and he was afraid that she would be bullied.
Now it seemed that she was really furious.
It was good as well.
He should let her handle this matter and avenge herself.
...
At this very moment...
Lu Ming was still in the suburbs.
After completing Fan Ze’s task, he left with a batch of cards!
Hehe.
Lu Ming touched the bulging card bag, feeling very satisfied.
Nobody would have thought that in this ordinary card bag was three hundred Charging Cards! That was right, there were a total of three hundred cards! Every card was charged with ten thousand points of energy!
This was the effort of Lu Ming’s half day work!
The materials were from Fan Ze!
The energy was from Fan Ze!
He created the cards and stolen their ores!
That was just letting him off easily.
How dare he owe him his salary?
Hehe.
Lu Ming sneered.
All this energy was enough for him to create and store a large number of Meltdown Cards and to engage in research. He believed that before entering the legacy, he would be able to further increase his energy level!
I will go back first.
Lu Ming walked toward the city.
On the way back...
He vaguely heard some roaring and rumbling sounds.
Oh.
Someone was hunting down ferocious beasts.
This was the norm in the suburbs. Lu Ming steered clear automatically. He inadvertently glanced in the direction of the noise just when he was about to leave.
Eh?
It seemed to be...
Someone familiar?
Bang!
Bang!
Not too far in the distance.
Lights and shadows flashed and a ferocious beast crashed to the ground.
It sent tremors to the ground.
Over there...
A lady stood alone, and she seemed to have noticed Lu Ming’s gaze. She turned to look at Lu Ming in the eye, before she acknowledged him by nodding slightly.
Lu Ming looked awkward.
It was common to nod and acknowledge each other when one ran across acquaintances in the suburbs.
However...
Why was the lady so calm and collected?!
Although it was common to nod and greet acquaintances, if someone out of the ordinary like her did it, it would be very scary?!
“Xin-er...”
Lu Ming’s head was hurting a little.
He was right!
This lady was Xin-er!
It turned out that...
Not only was she capable of cleaning herself, she could defeat monsters as well.
P-plug-in?
That was shocking!
Lu Ming was certain that she was the correct person.
Although Xin-er looked exactly like the lady, the temperament was vastly different, not to mention the mysterious thread under the hemline of her skirt.
Bang!
Xin-er dragged the beast and left.
The huge beast seemed very light in Xin-er’s hands. She pulled it away with her, leaving a long trace behind her.
Lu Ming was speechless.
That was a display of tremendous strength!
What kind of spirit body was Xin-er?
It was shocking!
Wait a minute, she seemed to be thinner now.
Perhaps she did not inflate fully.
Should he tell Zhang Xiaopang?
Well...
Lu Ming thought about it, but he had no idea how to broach the topic!
Hello, Xiaopang, your doll has mutated. Not only can it clean itself and self-inflate, it can defeat beasts and purchase items, isn’t that amazing?! Hahaha, I just happened to see your doll hunting down beasts. It was very formidable. It ran while dragging the tail of the beast. Can you believe it?
Damn it!
He was in disbelief?!
Forget it.
Lu Ming gave a deep sigh.
Xin-er had saved Xiaopang’s life more than once. They were a couple. He should not be embroiled in their business. After all, it was difficult to say who was right and wrong in a family.
“I’ll go back first.”
Lu Ming got up and went back home.
However...
Upon reaching the city, several people walked past him.
Lu Ming could sense their immense amount of energy even without using the Eye of Insight. They were not comparable to three-star cultivators like Fu Hongming and Teacher An!
These people...
Might be four-star and above!
He was reminded of what Jiang Feng had told him...
Lu Ming’s heart flipped. It seemed that something serious was going to happen in Qing Ming City.
