Divine Card Creator - Chapter 461
Chapter 461: They Create Their Own Fortuitous Encounter!
At the villa.
Lu Ming was sitting alone.
Qiu Shuyi had gone to kill beasts… No, she had gone out to settle something. As her hostage, Lu Ming could only stay at home.
He returned to the bedroom.
Lu Ming glanced at Qiu Shuyi’s bedroom curiously.
Actually, there was nothing much to see.
At the opposite end of the bed was a huge screen for watching dramas. There was a cupboard full of snacks and some clothing. Senior Qiu led a rather simple life.
However, this bed did not seem very even.
Well…
Lu Ming took a closer look. Sigh, it seemed that Senior Qiu loved to lie on her stomach when watching dramas.
→_→
He retracted his gaze.
Lu Ming began to review his gains from the burial ground.
First of all, the greatest gain from his trip was that he had reached peak five-star! For Lu Ming, who had an upper limit of 100,000 energy points, that was a huge improvement!!!
What did tenfold mean?
Lu Ming’s advancement of one small level was tantamount to the 2.5 levels of other five-stars! This kind of advancement speed could only be described as terrifying!
His combat abilities had improved tremendously!
Secondly, the effect of the Stars Card!
Although its only effect was to strengthen, the appearance of the Stars Card had given new uses to Lu Ming’s Sunlight Card and Moonlight Card.
All three cards: the Sunlight Card, Moonlight Card and Stars Card had a strengthening effect!
The three cards could be cast directly!!!
It was highly possible that besides strengthening him, the Stars Card and Moonlight Card could also attack his opponents! It was just that Lu Ming had not found the correct way to use them!
The Sunlight Card could explode and destroy the entire World of Darkness and Shadows!
What about the Moonlight Card?!
What about the Stars Card?!
Perhaps, this was also possible for them?
It was the same for the Sunlight Card. Besides possessing a huge explosion ability, it should also be able to strengthen his body!
What would be the strengthening effect of the Sunlight Card?!
Lu Ming was full of anticipation.
Of course, he had to test all of this gradually when he returned.
These two areas were Lu Ming’s greatest gains from the land of the fallen. However, after thinking about it in detail, he had taken a lot of risks there. He felt that… he had suffered a huge loss!
He had annihilated a group of peak six-stars in black!
He had annihilated a [two realms six-star] man in black!
He had annihilated the peak six-star An Mingdong!
He had annihilated a group of peak six-star men in black and a monster integrated with the grandmaster’s blood!
Furthermore, he had annihilated an eight-star grandmaster in the end!
Such risk…
Did he feel that it was worth it?
Most importantly, his sister’s Sword Embryo had self-destructed! His sister was a super genius who was about to reach seven-star but she had self-destructed once again…
Lu Ming felt upset at the thought of this.
“Actually, you don’t need worry.”
Xiao-Xiaojian consoled him, “Your sister is not as stupid as you. To her, it’s a piece of cake to re-cultivate to peak six-star.”
Lu Ming was speechless.
Damn it! Were these comforting words?!
He would wait for his sister to return before talking about it again.
At this very moment, Lu Ming’s wristband vibrated. There was a message from Xiaobai. “Master! Are you there?”
“Li Haoran?” Lu Ming replied instinctively.
“No~”
The other side responded, “Something happened. Junior Brother is busy.”
“What has happened?”
Lu Ming’s heart jumped a beat.
He knew that if he was at the legacy site, Xiaobai would not contact him unless something had happened. After thinking about it, he simply video-called Xiaobai.
“Master~”
Pleasantly surprised, Xiaobai looked at Lu Ming.
Wow!
He could actually video chat at the legacy site?!
Eh…
Something was not right.
She very quickly noticed the room that Lu Ming was in. There was a stretch of pink behind him…
“Huh?”
Xiaobai widened her eyes. “Master is out?”
“Yes.”
Lu Ming cast her an indulging look. “I just came out and had some matters to settle. I’m at my sister’s place and will return when I’m done.”
“Okay.”
Xiaobai nodded happily.
“Did anything happen to the association?”
Lu Ming asked.
“Well…
“How should I explain it?”
Xiaobai frowned. After pondering, she said, “The disciples said they discovered a place with one-of-a-kind fortuitous encounter! Their abilities have improved tremendously. However, I have a hunch that something is amiss. I’m not sure if it is justified or not. I have been there a few times but didn’t see anything.”
“One-of-a-kind fortuitous encounter?”
Lu Ming was puzzled.
The Sword Card Master Association was not located in the wilderness!
It was Tian Du City!
A city…
What kind of fortuitous encounter could there be?
“Yes,” Xiaobai said, “According to Junior Brother Li Ergou, they just have to look for a shadow in the dark corner near the association entrance and then say that they have been cuckolded by Master. That will do… Afterward, that shadow will help the disciples improve their abilities. Many disciples have already advanced by a small level!”
Lu Ming was dumbstruck.
Damn it! What kind of fortuitous encounter was this?!
What the hell did they mean by being cuckolded by him?
He contemplated his current image carefully. Unrivaled looks, shocking talent, success that was in defiance of the natural order, kind-hearted and so on. He was no playboy, right?!
“Anyway, that’s the situation.”
Xiaobai said softly, “As long as one can prove that they have been bullied, he can go there. Therefore, many disciples came up with untrue stories.”
Lu Ming was speechless.
Damn it. They created their own fortuitous encounters?!
He was between laughter and tears.
“Is it true that their abilities have improved?”
Lu Ming was speechless.
“Yes.”
Xiaobai nodded. “I’ve confirmed this. It’s stimulated by a very rare kind of precious herb. There are no side effects and such herbs are extremely rare in the market.”
“Is it very dangerous?”
“Li Haoran has been investigating this over the past few days.”
“I’ll contact him then.”
Lu Ming nodded slightly. He paused for a moment and then glared at Xiaobai. “It is already very late and you’re not sleeping yet? Sleep early. I’ll be back soon.”
“Alright.”
Xiaobai hung up the call obediently.
“This situation is really…”
Lu Ming was somewhat puzzled.
Hence, he messaged Li Haoran quietly to understand the situation and then guessed that the other party’s motive was to sow discord amongst the people of the Sword Card Master Association.
It was a pity. Lu Ming had an excellent reputation.
The Sword Card Master Association also had a great spirit of collectivism.
As such, the situation had evolved into one of Li Ergou leading a group of people to gain experience from that shadow. Almost all the disciples had increased their ability by a small level!
“He believed you guys?”
“Yes, all the stories that we provided are very complete.”
“Who wrote them?”
Lu Ming was amazed.
The other party was not a fool!
Who would believe them if the stories were repetitive?
Furthermore, could they come up with that many cuckolding stories?!
Cough, cough.
Li Haoran coughed. “We found that kind of website beginning with ‘s’ and registered a user account. We took their stories and modified them.”
Of course, he did not mention something.
For example…
In some of these stories, Lu Ming was a demon cum rapist who sowed his seeds everywhere daily. He had caused harm to the entire Sword Card Master Association.
What else could Lu Ming say? Damn it! This was a talent!!!
“Haoran, keep a tight watch on this,” Lu Ming instructed.
“Understood.”
Li Haoran looked serious.
After a long while, he left the office and wanted to confirm whether that shadow was still around. He was stunned when he saw Senior Sister Xiaobai looking dazed in front of Master’s bedroom.
“Senior Sister?”
Li Haoran asked cautiously.
“Huh?”
Xiaobai looked somewhat dazed.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Li Haoran was worried.
“I’m alright.”
Xiaobai furrowed her brows and felt slightly vexed.
She had a feeling that Master was lying. When she was video chatting with Master earlier, the bed that Master was sitting on was not very even…
This was not Sister Lu Yan’s style!
Goodness.
Xiaobai lowered her head and felt somewhat despaired.
That was annoying!
She had eaten a few months’ worth of papayas! Why didn’t she change! She knew it! Master loved ‘huge’ ladies!
“Haoran.”
“Yes.”
“I’ll also look for that shadow.”
“He may run away when you look for him…”
“That won’t be an issue.”
Xiaobai had a gloomy look in her eyes. “This time, I also have a story to tell…”
Li Haoran was speechless.
Why are you joining in the fun at your age?!
Just as Lu Ming was about to hang up the call, he saw a faint shadow flashing across.
“Sister.”
Lu Ming was overjoyed.
“Yes.”
Lu Yan looked at Lu Ming gently. “You’re not injured, are you?”
“No.”
Lu Ming nodded. He suddenly noticed that his sister had really become four-star.
“Sister, your ability…”
Lu Ming was a little worried.
“It’s okay.”
Lu Yan raised her hand.
Buzz—
The Sword Embryo emerged.
Xiao-Xiaolan transformed into a faint light and appeared. However, compared to their last meeting, it was now exuding an extraordinary aura!
That was… the magnificent, ancient aura!
“This is…”
Lu Ming’s heart skipped a beat.
“This little thing devoured the ancient Sword Embryo.”
Lu Yan smiled lightly. “Two Sword Embryos with different legacies integrated and a huge problem occurred. Therefore, the power was too great when it self-destructed!”
Eh?
Lu Ming was stunned.
That was what had happened!
It was no wonder the eight-star grandmaster had been beaten to a pulp by Senior Qiu after he recovered from his injuries…
“However…
“There won’t be any more problems after this self-destruction.”
Lu Yan smiled faintly. “During this re-cultivation, it used the method of that ancient Sword Embryo and re-condensed the Sword Embryo. This is considered a blessing in disguise. My powers have increased by a lot.”
“Oh.”
Lu Ming understood now.
His sister was a four-star but her body, mental strength and swordplay were at peak six-star standards! Her true combat ability still far surpassed that of his!
Besides…
Xiao-Xiaolan had completely transformed!
“Which means…”
Xiao-Xiaojian pondered deeply for a moment. “Your prowess will be even greater the next time you self-destruct?”
Shush!
Xiao-Xiaolan, who was dancing happily in the air, suddenly froze.
After a long while…
It transformed into a sword gleam, pushed Xiao-Xiaojian to the corner and gave the latter a round of ruthless beatings…
Lu Ming was speechless.
Aren’t you wretched?!
Crash!
Crash!
Crash!
A sword and a card fought in the air.
In the end, it ended with Xiao-Xiaojian suffering from a crushing defeat…
That was right.
The peak five-star Xiao-Xiaojian could not beat the four-star Xiao-Xiaolan at all!
“You can’t beat it?”
Lu Ming was surprised.
Of course, there was no doubt about Sister’s combat ability…
However, his sister did not make a move! Only the Sword Embryo fought and Xiao-Xiaolan was four-star! It was a fight between the two vocation cores!
“It integrated with the ancient Sword Embryo,” Xiao-Xiaojian muttered.
“Didn’t this happen to you as well?”
Lu Ming turned sullen.
If he had not remembered wrong, Xiao-Xiaojian’s identity and background were much stronger! He was a sword spirit of an ancient divine sword! It was far more amazing than an ancient Sword Embryo?!
But, Xiao-Xiaolan?
It had only integrated with a small essence of the ancient Sword Embryo.
Cough, cough.
Xiao-Xiaojian said in a low voice, “I don’t want to lower myself to the same level as it. Don’t humans always like to say ‘a real man doesn’t fight with women’…”
Xiao-Xiaojian explained.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Well, he could no longer put his hopes in this guy.
“Where is Master?” Lu Yan asked curiously.
“She went to kill beasts,” Lu Ming replied instinctively.
Lu Yan was confused.
“Oh, no, wait.”
Lu Ming came to his senses. “Cough, Senior said she has to go out to do something. Perhaps she hasn’t finished what she was doing before she went to the land of the fallen.”
“Did Master say anything?”
“It is a dark and windy night…”
“Oh…”
Lu Yan understood instantly. It must be that thing again.
“Be good.”
Lu Yan said gently, “Brother, sleep in my room tonight.”
Lu Ming was speechless.
Thankfully…
Learning from his prior experience, he asked directly, “Are you going out?”
“Yes.”
Lu Yan looked afar and said bitterly. “Master is good at fighting but in other areas… I can guess where she is headed. I’m afraid I have to make this trip.”
“Huh?”
Lu Ming was puzzled.
Therefore…
Senior Qiu captured him because she was worried about Sister.
Sister dumped him here because she was worried about Senior Qiu.
He felt that… he had been choked by this public display of affection.
…
“Can I be of any help?” Lu Ming asked.
Senior Qiu went to the land of the fallen to save him. If it was not about combating, he might be able to give her some suggestions. For example, psychological coaching or a check up.
“Why are you getting involved?”
Lu Yan smiled faintly.
She glanced at Lu Ming and was suddenly stunned.
Well…
Lu Yan looked at Lu Ming seriously from head to toe and a satisfactory expression suddenly emerged on her face. “That’s right. Brother… you’ve grown up after all.”
Hence, she simply brought Lu Ming along with her and left.
…
Very soon…
The two stepped out of the house.
Not too far in the distance.
The suburbs were in fact not that huge. They were formed by many villas that were not too closely built beside one another. Each villa emanated an extraordinary aura.
It was already very late at night.
If this was Tian Du City, everyone would long have gone to bed.
However, this place was brightly lit and one could see shadows flashing across them from time to time. Not many people were asleep and everyone looked very energetic.
“These people are extremely powerful.”
Lu Yan said softly, “They only need one to two hours of sleep per day.”
“Wow.”
Lu Ming had a grave expression on his face.
These people…
He was afraid that they were the family of grandmasters?!
They were similar to the identities of Zhou Yun, the teenager in white and Yang Liu-er? That was right. They possessed such capabilities because of their talent and identity.
However…
Why did his sister bring him there?
Shush!
The duo walked past two streets.
When they arrived at the entrance of a certain villa, Lu Yan keyed in the passcode in a familiar manner and led Lu Ming into it. A shocking scene appeared in the hall.
In the hall, Qiu Shuyi was seated opposite a young man. Surrounding them were seniors who were obviously much older and they were constantly picking up dishes with chopsticks for the two.
This scene… Is this a matchmaking session?!
…
