Chapter 286: Is It the Big Sister Who You’ve Ravaged Many Times?
Qing Ming City.
In the shop.
Lu Ming was lounging on the rocking chair.
“Master!
“Drink some water.”
Xiaobai brought him a cup of water obediently.
“Okay.”
Lu Ming had a lot on his mind.
Qing Ming City... was safe for the time being.
After he and Li Ergou killed Zou Shenglong, the men in black had vanished without a trace, and the aura that shrouded the entire Qing Ming City had also disappeared.
The fissures in the downtown area were classified as an ‘earthquake’ by the authorities and the case had come to a close.
The authorities forked out funds and looked for some structural stability architects and construction companies to reinforce the fissures in the downtown area in the shortest time possible.
Eventually, everything reverted to its original state.
However...
Lu Ming was very sure about something.
As long as the men in black were alive, Qing Ming City was not safe!
Although he had destroyed the sinister aura in the array, the Restart Array was definitely still around. It was just that Lu Ming did not have much knowledge about arrays. He also did not know where it was...
He could not destroy it at all.
He would request Miss Xiaoqing come take a look.
Lu Ming recalled that he had not seen Miss Xiaoqing for some time. He did not know if Miss Xiaoqing still smelled the same...
Buzz—
His wristband vibrated.
“Lu Ming, I heard that something has happened to Qing Ming City. Is everything fine on your side?”
——Xiaoqing
“I’m alright.”
Lu Ming was grateful.
Miss Xiaoqing had such a kind personality.
“That’s good.”
Xiaoqing sounded slightly hesitant. “My master told me that he spoke to Cheng Hao at length. He is afraid that this array is not as simple as it seems.”
“Oh?”
Lu Ming suddenly perked up.
Master...
Oh, right. Since Xiaoqing was an Array Master, it was not unusual for her master, a veteran Array Master, to know Cheng Hao. If that was the case...
“What do you know?”
Lu Ming asked hurriedly.
“Huh?
Xiaoqing was somewhat hesitant.
Her master had told her to not reveal these things to outsiders.
But...
Lu Ming was not an outsider, right?
After all...
He had saved her before...
Right.
Lu Ming should be considered as one of their own.
At the thought of this, Xiaoqing whispered, “M-master said that this is an array that they have planned for a thousand years. Therefore, as a precautionary measure, Cheng Hao had a long conversation with him about activating it physically and mentioned a dozen of such activation methods. All of them are irreversible.”
“Irreversible?”
Lu Ming had a grave expression on his face.
“Yes.”
Xiaoqing said, “If it is destroyed after being activated normally, it goes to show that the opponent is exceedingly powerful. At such times, one can only use irreversible methods!
“Master also said.
“For the Restart Array, everything is contained in the array.
“In essence, things such as the sinister aura are just a prelude... a switch.”
Xiaoqing recalled her master’s words. “If the other party activated it physically, the Restart Array will inevitably enter the preparation stage!
“No one will be able to reverse it!
“Because, activating it physically means truly permeating the array.
“That seems to be what happened.”
Xiaoqing said everything that she could remember.
Array...
Activate it physically
Lu Ming looked solemn.
Actually, this was very easy to understand.
When he watched movies in the past, if a particular villain wanted to activate their nuclear weapon, everyone would chase after the ‘password’, ‘activation device’ and other equipment. The fight would then begin!
After all, such things encompassed a wide geographical area. If one wanted to survive, he would have to control it at a distance!
But now?
Lu Ming and Li Ergou had destroyed the activation device. Afterward...
Their enemies intended to detonate it manually!
Did this make any sense?
However, if it was irreversible...
It should not happen that quickly?
“How long do such activation methods take?”
Lu Ming suddenly asked.
“Not too sure.”
Xiaoqing pondered for a moment. “Nevertheless, all such methods use permeation to infiltrate the array. It is a very gradual process!
“The bigger the array, the more time is needed.
“If it is the Restart Array...
“It may need a very long time,” Xiaoqing said, recalling what her master taught her.
“Understood, many thanks,” Lu Ming expressed his gratitude.
“I-its nothing.”
Xiaoqing felt very embarrassed. “When I have the time. I-I can go and check it out...”
“No need.”
Lu Ming waved his hands.
If that was really the situation, it would be dangerous for Xiaoqing to come.
“It’s okay.
“It’s not for you. Ah... I mean, it’s no problem.”
Xiaoqing was blushing. “Array Masters like us rarely encounter such situations. If we can really come into contact with a powerful array, it is also a chance encounter.”
“Really?” Lu Ming exclaimed.
Your line of work is very dangerous.
“Of course.”
Miss Xiaoqing was very serious. “If there is a chance, I will definitely go and check it out!”
“Okay.”
Lu Ming no longer refused.
“T-then, I’ll hang up first.”
Miss Xiaoqing hung on the phone frantically.
Oh my goodness!
What did I just say...
‘It’s not for you. Sigh, why did I say that ?
How annoying!
However...
The outcome seems to be pretty good?
When she had the time, she could secretly make a trip to Qing Ming City...
After all. such a one-of-a-kind array was very rare.
At the thought of this, Miss Xiaoqing left the house frantically and bumped into Gao Tianlang who was arriving. She said nervously, “Brother, I’m going to cultivate.”
Gao Tianlang was silent.
When he came, he heard something about checking...
“Wait a moment. Are you thinking of going to Qing Ming City to check something?”
Gao Tianlang suddenly asked.
“Uh...”
Xiaoqing sounded a little embarrassed. “Yes.”
Gao Tianlang was silent for a long time before letting out a sigh.
The circumstances were what they were. What else could he do?
Perhaps...
He should have done this long ago.
“Go ahead.”
Gao Tianlang looked afar, his gaze profound.
“Huh?
Gao Xiaoqing was somewhat shocked. Her brother actually agreed?!
“I can go?”
She was a little excited.
“Go ahead.”
Gao Tianlang sighed.
The situation was what it was. Could he still stop her?
“Thank you, brother!”
Gao Xiaoqing was overjoyed.
“You guys...”
Gao Tianlang fell silent for a long time. Eventually, he reminded her, “Remember to fast before your check up...”
“Huh?
Gao Xiaoqing looked confused.
Why did she need to fast to check out the array?!
...
At this very moment...
In the shop.
Lu Ming was shocked when he saw the latest message.
“Lu Ming
“I’ll be making a trip to Qing Ming City in two days’ time!
“When the time comes, I will help you investigate the array. This is a one-of-a-kind array. We must not miss this chance! Please help me do this! (๑*◡*๑)”
——Gao Xiaoqing.
“Huh?
Lu Ming was shocked.
That soon?
It was good.
It was better to resolve the matter regarding the Restart Array as soon as possible.
Otherwise, on a certain night, what if the Restart Array were to suddenly collapse when he and Xiaobai were eating papayas and creating cards in the shop? Where could he seek justice from then?
Therefore...
The matter pertaining to the array had to be resolved!
“Things have been tough for you.”
He messaged Gao Xiaoqing.
“Not at all!
“I’m not coming for you. It’s for my own sake! Really! ( ̄▽̄)~
“Don’t feel pressured!” Gao Xiaoqing replied.
“Okay.”
Lu Ming was between laughter and tears.
She was surprisingly bubbly.
Among the women that he had met, Miss Xiaoqing had the best personality. It was true. After all, despite being trampled numerous times by bulls, she could let bygones be bygones...
She was the only one who could do that.
The timing of her trip was just nice. Over the next two days, Lu Ming had to reorganize his thoughts and come up with a good plan!
After all...
He was very dissatisfied with his performance in the ancient tombs!
Although he had used various trump cards and almost thoroughly beat a beginner six-star, he almost failed in the end. If Li Ergou did not act...
He was afraid that he would have had to go all out and burn his life!
Although he was confident that he would win...
If he used Burning of Life, would he be able to recover his mental strength?
In that case...
When burning life, Moonblade... would most probably be very powerful.
Of course.
He reckoned that he would become Xiaobai’s grandfather after the burning...
What was the point of victory then?
After seeing the thirty-year-old man in black burning himself until he looked like he was in his seventies and eighties, Lu Ming did not look forward to this so-called ability at all!
Rubbish!
He might look like crap after using it!
Therefore...
Lu Ming was very displeased with himself.
His other abilities, not taking into account the Burning of Life, were then his true capabilities!
As for Brother Cat...
Lu Ming was certain that, if he was really going to die, Brother Cat could bring him to the World of Darkness and Shadows as an escape. However, if that was the case...
Qing Ming City would be doomed!
Brother Cat could only save him but could not help him fight!
If he wanted to go all out...
He could only rely on himself!
“I should work hard.”
Lu Ming’s eyes were focused.
In fact...
He had just attained a four-star breakthrough. Be it the cards or the Lunar Shadow legacy, he had just begun refining them. As long as he could come up with everything, he would be able to advance steadily!
It was just that...
He needed time!!!
Although he was a self-professed salted fish, he was merely a salted fish regarding cultivation... He would leave that to Xiao-Xiaojian... As for the other matters...
Lu Ming had been learning everyday.
Swordplay basics, card essence... He had never stopped learning!
The next step...
Five-star cards!
There was a sparkle in Lu Ming’s eyes.
Aside from the Demolition Card series which had been unstable and random, the Summon Card series was advancing steadily!
Three-star, summon warrior!
Four-star, summon moonlight!
Well...
How about five-star?
If he could create a true five-star limit card this time, although it was just one card, it would be a true trump card for Lu Ming!
Therefore...
The next step was to research five-star Summon Cards.
Of course.
Prior to this, there was a minor problem.
...
“Master,”
Xiaobai blinked her eyes curiously. “Who is this person who’s a little ugly?”
Li Ergou, who had just come around, almost fainted again before he could catch his breath. Since a young age, this was the first time that he heard someone say that he was ugly...
“Young lady, I’m not ugly,” Li Ergou said seriously.
Immediately thereafter, he was somewhat proud when he said, “I’m only slightly uglier than your master.”
Xiaobai pondered for a moment. “You’re right.”
She felt that...
It was not necessary to debate it further.
She was already a little grown-up. She had to share the burden with her master and learn how to deal with complex interpersonal relations. Therefore, she had been reading up on books about this topic recently.
The title of the book was “The Birth of the Bar Spirit”. It described some negative examples that must be avoided.
She had used it on Zhang Wei before.
It was very effective.
...
“Are you feeling alright?”
Smiling, Lu Ming walked towards him.
“Yes.”
Li Ergou nodded.
He was merely drained of energy and was doing fine.
“What are your plans?”
Lu Ming asked.
“I want to become a Sword Card Master!” Li Ergou said seriously.
Lu Ming’s hands trembled slightly.
Why did he have to take things that hard?
“Can’t I do that?”
Li Ergou was very disappointed.
“Well.”
Lu Ming felt that it was better to make him give up.
“Well...”
Li Ergou mulled everything over for a moment. “No matter what, I’ve saved you, right? You should owe me a favor? I’ll use this to join the Sword Card Master vocation. How about that?
“Although I may not succeed in learning it...
“I won’t regret it! I’m sure.
“This must be the earthshaking chance encounter that Master left for me!”
Li Ergou sounded very sincere.
Lu Ming was speechless.
He had already put it like that, what else could he do?!
“I’ll give you a contact.”
Lu Ming sighed. “He’s responsible for the recruitment and operations of the Sword Card Master. Go and look for him and let him assess your talents properly. You can then consider if you still want to join”
“Sure!”
Li Ergou was elated.
Hence...
He went looking for Li Haoran with the address given to him by Lu Ming.
Lu Ming felt a little lost.
This was such a fine Scout. Why did he have to insist on becoming a Sword Card Master?!
First, you don’t have an elder sister. Second, you don’t have resources. Can you really cultivate?!
He didn’t understand.
Forget it.
He would let Li Haoran deal with this pain...
...
“Xiaobai.”
“Yes.”
“Buy more food later. One of my friends will be visiting in two days’ time.”
“Okay.”
Xiaobai agreed obediently. After pausing for a moment, she suddenly asked, “Is it the big sister that you’ve ravaged many times?”
Lu Ming turned sullen.
What do you mean by ‘ravaged many times’!
“Trampled!
“That’s called trampling by the bulls!”
Lu Ming glared at the little girl. “That was merely an accident...”
“Oh.”
Xiaobai lowered her head.
She remembered that big sister. Her legs were very long... She quietly compared her own with hers and discovered that she was only a tad taller than Big Sister’s legs...
She felt very sad about it.
How could someone’s legs be that long?!
However...
If that big sister was going to come...
Xiaobai’s eyes were shining. She had to ask Miss Xiaoqing how her legs became that long!
She also wanted to have such long legs!
This was because she remembered very clearly that in her master’s book titled “Things about Dressing in Female Clothing”, people wearing mini skirts also had very very long legs...
