Zero To Hero In The Martial Arts Library Novel - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: The East Wind Express, Mission Accomplished

“I’ll give my wife a call first and have her transfer the money for me.”

Gu Hai quickly got through to his wife, Lu Wanwan. When Lu Wanwan heard that he had spent several thousand yuan for a meal, she exploded on the spot.

“What? Several thousand yuan? Did you eat or go for a luxurious spa treatment? Did you go to Red Romance again?”

“Hey! Honey, I really didn’t go to Red Romance. I was having dinner with Ye Xiao.”

“What kind of dinner costs a few thousand yuan? Do you think I’m an idiot?”

“Really! If you don’t believe me, I’ll video call you.”

…

One minute later.

“Gu Hai, you’re so heartless. I’ve always wanted to go to that seafood buffet, but I didn’t get to. You actually went to eat with Ye Xiao without me. You even want me to pay for it. Go to hell!”

After saying that, Lu Wanwan hung up the phone.

“…”

The waitress beside him covered her mouth and stifled her laughter until her face turned purple.

Gu Hai said in a bad mood.

“Are you mocking me? Be careful or I’ll file a complaint against you!”

The waitress forcefully stifled her laughter and said with a serious face,

“Sir, we’ve received strict training. No matter how funny it is, we won’t laugh.”

After saying that, the corners of her mouth curled up again.

“You still laughed!”

“I was smiling, a polite smile. Also, sir, don’t change the topic. Please pay the bill.”

Gu Hai looked at Ye Xiao again. Ye Xiao turned his head away, looking as if he was not going to care at all.

He was helpless. He could not count on Huan Liuli, right?

Helpless, he could only open the phone case and take out a few hundred yuan from it. He then took off his shoes and took out a thousand yuan from under the two insoles. He took a few hundred yuan from his socks as well as a few hundred yuan from his sleeves… When he reached out to undo his belt, the waitress’s face turned green.

Fortunately, Gu Hai’s money was placed in the middle of the belt and not in that position she was expecting. Otherwise, she would have really vomited.

Even so, the money that was placed in the shoes also carried a sour smell. It made the waitress feel so uncomfortable that she pinched it with two fingers and threw it to the front desk in extreme disgust.

“Hey! Remember to give me an invoice.”

“Got it…”

Ye Xiao said with a wicked smile,

“I couldn’t tell. Your body is like a small treasury. You’ve hidden quite a lot.”

“Is that so? What kind of married man does not have to learn some gold-hiding techniques? However, you scammed me clean today. In the future, if I have no money, I’ll look for you to help me. You can’t hide.”

Ye Xiao nodded.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back first. Wanwan will definitely be angry. I still have one more fight when I go home.”

“Can you handle it?”

“Of course! There’s still 200 yuan left in my pocket. Buy her some snacks and she’ll settle in a minute.”

“Have her eat fewer snacks. After all, it’s not good for the child.”

“Got it.”

The two exchanged a few pleasantries and parted ways at the restaurant’s entrance.

Ye Xiao thought about something as he walked back.

He was not thinking about King El.

He was completely confused about King El’s matter and could not find a reason for it. It was a waste of his brain cells to think about it.

What he was thinking about was the ability of star beasts that could continuously divide spiritual energy and pollute souls.

Could that be applied to his saber or sword techniques?

Thinking about it carefully, his saber and sword techniques attacked straightforwardly.

Although they were very strong, they could not be used in roundabout ways. Moreover, there was a certain limit to the distance they could be released. It was impossible for them to run a hundred or even a thousand miles away!

If the other party’s spiritual energy infected the soul, they would die or be injured at the slightest touch. Once they locked onto them, they would not be able to escape.

Now that he had also cultivated the spiritual cultivation technique, Big Dipper’s Grand Mystery, could he compress the power of his saber or sword techniques and then use his spiritual energy to control it to track them, then detonate them at a fixed point?

In addition, he could use other techniques to transport them thousands of miles away, and still use his spiritual energy to detect and determine the detonation.

That way, could he travel thousands of miles away and take someone’s head?

Ye Xiao had always been a person who would strive to do whatever came to his mind.

He brought Huan Liuli to the outskirts of Jianghai city and gently stroked her small head.

“Huan Liuli, I’ve subdued you for so long. How do I treat you?”

Huan Liuli’s heart thumped.

“Master… Uh… Master treats me pretty well! What’s the matter?”

“I want you to help me test out the ideas that I just thought of.”

Huan Liuli’s body suddenly shivered.

“Master, are you joking? Your attacks are so strong. With one move, I would die. How could I test it out?”

“Don’t worry, I will control my strength well. I will only release a little bit of it so I won’t hurt you.”

“Can I refuse?”

“Of course you can. I’m a benevolent master. I respect my star pets very much.”

Even though he said that Ye Xiao’s hand that was stroking Huan Liuli became more forceful and rough.

Huan Liuli trembled.

“Master, stop stroking me. You’re almost pulling all my fur off! I’ll help you with the test.”

“Good girl, you can run forward as much as you want. Run to wherever you want to go. Use your full speed and don’t hold back.”

“That simple?”

“Yes.”

“Then don’t blame me for whatever happens.”

After saying that, Huan Liuli instantly transformed into a black lightning bolt and dashed out.

‘Hahaha… Do you really think that my grade and bloodline are just for show? You want me to entertain your nonsense? You’re dreaming! I will run for 110 miles per hour now. First, I’ll go to the neighboring city and have a good time for a few days before returning.’

Ye Xiao, who was at the back, let out a breath of air. Looking at Huan Liuli, who had already fled into the distance, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

In the next second, he slowly extended his right hand and executed the Heaven-cleaving Sword.

In an instant, a resplendent and dazzling sword ray was rapidly formed. Following that, it was compressed into a tiny, thumb-sized light particle.

Then, Ye Xiao added his own spiritual energy into it. He commanded his spiritual energy to detonate directly at Huan Liuli the second it detected her.

After the command was set, the sword ray immediately flew in the direction that Huan Liuli had left.

That speed was so fast that it made one’s hair stand on end. It was simply like a pop. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the night and caught up to Huan Liuli who was running hurriedly.

Huan Liuli was still feeling smug. In the next second, a sword ray streaked past like a meteor and suddenly exploded on the grass in front of her.

Boom!

With a deafening sound, flames soared into the sky. The shockwave of the explosion sent Huan Liuli flying.

After landing on the ground, she opened her mouth wide and turned around to stare at the darkness behind her. With a gulp, she swallowed her saliva. She was extremely frightened.

Behind her, in the boundless darkness, there seemed to be an invisible but terrifyingly powerful beast!

At any time… It could swallow her whole..
