Divine Card Creator - Chapter 219
Chapter 219: Is This the Calling of a Hero?
Qing Ming City.
Lu Ming arrived at the familiar detention center.
“Hello.”
Lu Ming walked to the lobby.
“It’s you again.”
The young policewoman looked at Lu Ming expressionlessly. How could a friend of that guy Zhang Xiaopang be a good person? She would always remember the story about smashing the summoners’ asses!
Snort!
He had wasted his good looks…
“Long time no see.”
Lu Ming smiled faintly.
“He’s inside,” the young lady said coldly. “Your gang member is becoming more and more skillful in carrying out crimes.”
Lu Ming was silent.
Oh my goodness!
Had they turned into a gang now?
Forget it.
The young lady was immature and he would not be bothered with her. Lu Ming headed to the interrogation room.
“Bro, you’re here.”
Zhang Wei waved his hands from the interrogation room.
“Yo, Brother Zhang.”
Lu Ming smiled.
Zhang Wei was also the one who interrogated Zhang Xiaopang the last time. He had not expected to see him again. But then again, he heard that Zhang Wei had been promoted. Why was he still doing this…
“I had no choice.”
Zhang Wei sighed. “This involves a five-star cultivator. I had to come.”
That was right.
Lu Ming came to his senses.
For Qing Ming City, five-star was considered heaven!
Even the chief might have to rush here to deal with the matter, more so a team leader.
“Let’s go.”
The duo walked to the interrogation room.
“Brother Lu!”
Zhang Xiaopang was ecstatic.
“Speak. Who reported you this time?”
Lu Ming sighed.
“Zhou Yang,” Zhang Xiaopang said honestly.
Lu Ming was taken aback.
Zhou Yang?
That did not seem right. He was jailed the last time because someone else reported him… How could it be Zhou Yang? Didn’t Zhou Yang want his face?
“Er… perhaps I asked for too much?”
Zhang Xiaopang was vexed.
“How much did you ask for?” Lu Ming asked.
“One million yuan,” Zhang Xiaopang said firmly.
Sneering coldly, Lu Ming glanced at him.
“Er… two million yuan?”
Zhang Xiaopang said gingerly. At the sight of Lu Ming and Zhang Xiaopang’s cold and sneering expressions, he could only sigh. “Alright, it’s ten million yuan.”
Zhang Wei was speechless.
You asked for ten million yuan. Why didn’t you go to heaven?!
“What did you use to threaten him this time?”
Lu Ming was curious.
Logically, Zhou Yang should have become warier due to his past experience. Could he be that dumb to be secretly filmed by Zhang Xiaopang again?
“Well, I didn’t.”
Zhang Xiaopang scratched his head. “I filmed a video of him the last time, right? I discovered that his ability in a certain aspect is really worrying… So… This time, I transformed into a traditional chinese medicine practitioner to examine him. As soon as I hung up the banner, he was lured. Things then took their course afterward.”
“What did you write on your banner?”
Zhang Wei was taken aback.
“Ten-Year Veteran Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner, Century Time-Honored Brand, From Sewing Machine (Chinese Internet Slang for short, thin and fast) to Elevated Gun, Ten Times a Night is No Longer a Dream,” Zhang Xiaopang said embarrassingly.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Alright.
He was indeed someone in this business.
Ordinary folks would not be able to pick up the scamming tactics of Zhang Xiaopang.
“So, those ten million yuan…” Lu Ming pondered deeply.
“It’s for the medicine.”
Zhang Xiaopang felt aggrieved. “I just prescribed a bunch of health products for him. Anyway, he won’t die from eating them. I’ve also given those medicine that may be effective… Afterward… I don’t know what happened. His body turned awry… He wanted to kill me and I could only seek protection here… However, I didn’t expect him to simply sue me for extortion and blackmail. He wants to jail me forever…”
“Are the policemen that amazing?”
Lu Ming was astonished. “You guys can even restrain the rage of a five-star?”
“The reinforcements from higher-ups arrived.”
Zhang Wei said softly, “Coupled with the situation regarding the spirit body, six-stars are holding the fort now. Even Zhou Yang and this group dare not mess around and can only go through legal avenues.
Furthermore, they are asking us for a favor. They hope that this matter can be kept under wraps.”
Zhang Wei sighed.
This was really a troublesome matter!
“What’s the situation now?”
Lu Ming was curious.
“Tomorrow afternoon, policemen from another city will come and move Zhang Xiaopang to another place.”
Zhang Wei shrugged his shoulders. “Qing Ming City can’t reject this case.”
“The city in Zhou Yang’s hometown?”
Lu Ming squinted his eyes.
“Yes.”
Zhang Wei was certain.
Therefore…
This time, he reckoned that Zhang Xiaopang was definitely going to do himself in!
“Both of you can chat.”
After finishing his words, Zhang Wei left.
“Save me, Brother Lu,” Zhang Xiaopang pleaded.
“How can I save you?”
Lu Ming glanced at him.
“Get me out. That will do.”
Zhang Xiaopang gritted his teeth. “As long as I can leave this place, I have means of hiding. The world is so big and I can go anywhere. There’s nothing to be afraid of!”
“What about the school?”
Lu Ming sighed.
“Brother Lu, you should be aware of the school’s situation. Even if the school can get away this time, there won’t be any hopes next time…”
Zhang Xiaopang was very clear-minded. “Therefore, this one-year-period is quite good. It has given many people in the school time to prepare and think about their future.”
“So… As long as you can think of a way for me to escape, that will do.”
Zhang Xiaopang smiled bitterly. “Six-stars are holding the fort now. I really can’t escape.”
“Are you sure?” Lu Ming asked.
“I am sure!”
Zhang Xiaopang was very certain.
“Half the reward.”
Lu Ming smiled faintly.
“Brother Lu, you’re too merciless!”
Zhang Xiaopang wailed.
For the sake of this ten million yuan, he even risked his life!
“Do you think I’m not taking any risks?”
Lu Ming sighed. “Look, I don’t have any feud or resentment with Zhou Yang. Will he target me after I help you? He is a five-star, alright!”
His heart aching, Zhang Xiaopang said, “Okay, how do I get out of here?”
“Don’t worry.
Lu Ming smiled. “Aren’t you going to be moved tomorrow?”
…
The next day.
The policemen from both sides came for the handover.
When they were escorting Zhang Xiaopang away with a cloud shuttle, a beam of lights flashed. Zhang Xiaopang transformed into lights and disappeared, evaporating before the eyes of the policemen…
To hell with it!
The team was led by a five-star cultivator and four four-star cultivators were guarding him!
Clearly, all of Zhang Xiaopang’s powers were restrained and he was restricted by various chains. How could he possibly release his energy to fly and escape from this place?!
Could it be that…
Staring at the chains, the team leader of the policemen was in deep thoughts. Was there a problem with this batch of energy chains?
Damn!
They would look for the seller to seek compensation!
He had heard that someone went knocking on their doors due to problems with the energy chains and they almost ended up in a fight… However, the higher-ups insisted that their attitude was good and they were willing to compensate people tenfold the purchase price. Therefore, the police could continue the business with them…
Snort!
This time, he had to settle scores with them when he returned!
Of course.
Before this…
“Look for him!
Quickly find that guy!
I don’t believe he can run too far!”
“Yes.”
…
In the vicinity.
At one of the mountain crests.
Lu Ming was very satisfied with the effect of the Cloud Shuttle Card.
Well…
In the future…
He would call it “Prison Escape Card” then.
Professional!
Steady!
Highly effective!
…
“He has escaped?!”
“Good-for-nothing!”
“Zhang Xiaopang is just a two-star. How can he possibly escape?”
Zhou Yang was madly furious.
Now, he had lost all his face!
His body was useless now!
Those damn health products had reduced his abilities significantly!
In the end, his family discovered what happened!
Although this matter had been kept under wraps eventually, almost everyone in his family knew about his skeleton in the closet now. How could he not be furious?
He had to kill this little fatty!
However…
Unexpectedly, he received news of Zhang Xiaopang’s escape…
According to the people at the scene, they only saw a beam of blue lights flashing and then Zhang Xiaopang flew away. Even a five-star cultivator did not manage to catch up with him!
Could it be that…
Six-star?
Damn it!
How could that be possible?
If Zhang Xiaopang really knew someone of this level, why would he carry out all sorts of frauds to deceive others?!
“Arrest him! You have to arrest him! Wasn’t he tied up with energy chains?”
“We’re already chasing him.”
Very soon…
He received another news.
They had discovered the broken chains in a certain place. On the surface, the person who took action was extraordinary strong and might possess powerful abilities…
“Good-for-nothing! Are all of you good-for-nothings!”
Zhou Yang flew into a rage, smashing all the things in his room.
However…
At this moment.
Crash!
A figure flashed across the room.
Zhou Yang was thrown out of the place directly and he spewed blood profusely.
A cold and sinister shadow appeared. His sharp gaze, akin to lightning, landed on Zhou Yang. Zhou Yang’s face turned ghastly pale, “Brother.”
“Are you done with stirring up trouble?”
“If you are, please go home. Gao Tianlang is already a six-star and you’re still messing around here?” the shadow said in a cold and aloof voice.
Zhou Yang was trembling all over.
Gao Tianlang was already a six-star?
“What you’ve taken are all health products. These are just the effects of drugs,” the shadow said calmly.
With that…
He waved his hands.
There was a surge of lights.
Zhou Yang was pleasantly surprised to discover his body feeling much better after spewing out that mouthful of blood earlier.
“That Zhang Xiaopang.”
The shadow’s expression was cold and aloof. “I’ve left a trace in his body. We can hunt him down at any point in time.”
“Where is he?”
Zhou Yang was elated.
“I’ll tell you when you break through to six-star.”
The shadow said coldly, “If you can’t even break through to six-star… There is no use in telling you this.”
“Yes.”
Zhou Yang was trembling all over.
After a long time…
The duo left.
Leaving behind a room in shambles.
When the hotel staff came and saw the two departing figures, his head hurt. “Sigh, the taste of the youngsters nowadays are getting stronger and stronger…”
…
At this very moment…
Qing Ming City.
At the shop.
Lu Ming was overjoyed when he saw the balance in his bank account.
Well…
He had received five million yuan!
Hahaha!
Although Zhang Xiaopang was such a conman, he would gain something each time Zhang Xiaopang appeared. Hmm… This was his true lucky star!
Look, just one Cloud Shuttle Card had fetched the high sum of five million yuan. Could he not make money?!
As for Zhang Xiaopang…
Lu Ming was not worried.
His secrets were as heavy as his weight. He was extremely strange and mysterious. Coupled with Xin-er, it was extremely difficult to kill Zhang Xiaopang!
He had gained true freedom now that he had left the college!
“There’s so much money.”
Xiaobai’s eyes were filled with little stars.
“Of course.”
Lu Ming smiled faintly.
With this sum of money, they could cultivate for a long time!
In addition, he was already at peak three-star and close to having a breakthrough. He really needed money!
For example—
Four-star breakthrough!
For example—
Materialization of the Original Card!
Of course.
Before this, out of habit, Lu Ming summarized the gains from the incident regarding the python spirit body.
How should he say it?
Although the process was quite tortuous, the outcome was considered positive.
After all…
He had reached peak three-star now!
From now onwards, he, Lu Ming was also considered a peak three-star in true sense! Oh, moreover, the Original Card had also become stronger after one round of tempering…
Hehe.
It should have already surpassed the Sword Embryo?
“Remember!
You’re a spirit body that has devoured a six-star python and one ore vein!
I’ll beat you to death if you can’t fly,” Lu Ming glanced at the Original Card and said.
The Original Card was silent.
How could it fly that easily!
The problem did not lie with it, okay! If you were as light-weight as Xiaobai, I could easily carry three of you and fly, alright?!
Furthermore…
Was carrying a girl and you the same thing?
Especially those wearing skirts…
Bam!
Lu Ming slammed the Original Card down.
“I’ll kill you if you let your thoughts run wild again.”
Lu Ming looked solemn.
The Original Card was silent.
“Cultivate properly.”
Lu Ming instructed, “Learn from Xiao-Xiaobai.”
At the corner.
Xiao-Xiaobai was carrying a row of bricks and cultivating diligently.
The Original Card was silent.
This kind of ‘look at that other family’s children’… It was too annoying!
It was true.
Can my talent be compared to its?
It was ridiculous!
And right then.
Xiaobai suddenly thought of something. “Master, master, you have not named your Original Card. It seems that third senior brother wants to register the name of the spirit body…”
Third senior brother…
Lu Ming only came to his senses after a long time.
Oh.
She was referring to Li Haoran…
Register the name…
Well…
Now that Sword Card Master was on the right track and spirit body had become a standard ‘equipment’, he should name it.
“Do you have a name?”
Lu Ming looked at the Original Card.
He felt that he should respect the Original Card for such matters.
“Yes.”
The Original Card transmitted its thoughts. “I am a noble sword spirit and once had the name Cuan Wei!”
“Oh, it says that it is called Xiao-Xiaojian,”
Lu Ming turned around and told Xiaobai.
“Xiao-Xiaojian… Sounds very pleasant.”
Xiaobai then happily looked for third senior brother to register the name.
The Original Card looked dumbstruck.
Damn!
Why did you ask me then?!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Lights shone brightly on the Original Card!
“My name is Cuan Wei!”
“My name is Cuan Wei!”
The Original Card transmitted its thoughts continuously.
It was a pity…
Lu Ming could not be bothered with it. This was because he felt that Xiao-Xiaojian obviously sounded better. It did not have anything to do with him not being able to recognize the two words of the Original Card’s name.
…
The matter regarding the name came to a close temporarily.
The next step was to make the Original Card materialize!
At this moment…
Lu Ming browsed the content library of the association to look for information about the materialization of the Original Card. Like a nouveau riche, he purchased all the books related to this topic available in the association!
“Xiaobai, what is your energy level now?” Lu Ming asked in a low voice.
“Seven thousand.”
Xiaobai called Xiao-Xiaobai over and asked it.
Seven thousand…
Lu Ming’s heart trembled.
Hell… Look, what kind of speed was this?!
If he had not exploited the python this time, he might have been surpassed!
It was too dangerous!
Sigh.
There was no choice.
With such a useless card spirit, he could only worry more.
“It will reach ten thousand very soon.”
Lu Ming thought about it.
“Yes.”
Xiaobai was very happy.
She could gather ten thousand energy points and then break through to three-star very soon!
“Once you reach three-star, the energy tempering won’t be too far off. After energy tempering, you will reach the peak soon. Once you reach the peak, the Original Card will be able to materialize…”
Lu Ming pondered deeply for a moment. “Master will buy the teaching materials for you first. Remember to seek reimbursements from your dad.”
“Okay,” Xiaobai agreed obediently.
Although he had just received five million yuan, things such as accounts… there had to be a separate distinction.
He could not mess them up.
Well…
Xiaobai noted down seriously.
Beneath her feet…
A familiar warmth could be felt.
The heating system of Qing Ming City was finally working!
Heehee.
This was master’s doing!
Xiaobai was very happy.
She knew that master was in fact very busy.
Master had to cultivate every day, teach stupid disciples such as second senior brother and third senior brother, and also secretly protect Qing Ming City. It was really very tough on him.
Perhaps…
Perhaps, this was the calling of a hero?
Well…
Xiaobai stoled a glance at her master, her eyes filled with little stars.
