Qing Ming City.

In the ruins.

Xia Yu looked at the small figure in front of him, feeling astonished.

Xiaobai…

This young lady is that powerful?!

Even if the five of them were seriously injured, they were five-stars!

She was just a young lady…

He looked at the longbow in his hands and he remembered the arrogance that he felt when he laid his hands on the divine weapon. He suddenly felt bitter.

Lu Ming was shocked as well.

He knew that Xiaobai was talented, but he never imagined that she was to that extent… Xia Yu might not be able to see it clearly but he could. Her sealing abilities were extraordinary!

However, it was impossible for ordinary people to perform sealing when in battle!

It was so for him!

As for Xiaobai…

Well…

She sealed five abilities at once!

All of them were in different angles, positions, and there were five different abilities!

To seal five abilities in such a short period of time and to condense and retaliate and dissipate… It meant that she had to calculate five different sealing formulas!

Oh.

There was the comprehensive calculation in the final attack as well…

After all…

One had to calculate the position and angle of the retaliation as well as how much the enemies could withstand…

Lu Ming stared at the sky.

Did the young girl grow up eating geometry?

“I feel that… your disciple is stronger than you.”

Xia Yu made a heartfelt comment.

Lu Ming was silent.

“No.”

Xiaobai said with some regret, “Master can do seven-part sealing, while I can only do five times… and it is my limit. I can’t do any more than that.”

“Oh?”

Xia Yu was surprised. He didn’t know that Lu Ming had such hidden talents.

“Yes.”

Xiaobai sounded very serious. “Master once used that ability. It was very powerful. I have been trying to learn it, but it is a pity because I have not succeeded yet…”

Xiaobai was somewhat disappointed.

It would be great if she was as formidable as her master.

Cough, cough.

Lu Ming coughed.

Suddenly…

The ground began to shake slightly.

Lu Ming and the group looked at one another and hurried to get up and leave.

“Let’s go.

“Let’s end this before they come out,” Lu Ming whispered.

Although those people had been buried underneath them, they did not sustain very serious injuries and they would come out anytime.

“Okay,” Xia Yu agreed.

At this very moment…

Lu Ming held his sister’s long sword in his hands, but it had already lost its luster…

He seemed to be holding on to a crutch. It was just nice that he could prop himself up since he felt exhausted to the bones. However, he had only made a few steps when he heard a clear sound.

Ding!

There was a crisp and clear sound.

The long sword seemed to have touched something.

“What is it?”

Lu Ming took a look at it. There was a piece of metal with inscriptions on it. It seemed to be a record— The Imperial Beast Pavilion pavilion master betrayed the sect and divulged the news of the Restart Array and was beheaded.

He looked further down.

The restart plan was in the preparation phase, but the Imperial Beast Pavilion pavilion master refused to obey orders.

The restart plan was in the initiation phase, but the Imperial Beast Pavilion pavilion master left.

The restart plan was interrupted, the Imperial Beast Pavilion pavilion master was suspected of betrayal…

The restart plan was halted, the Imperial Beast Pavilion pavilion master was officially called to account for his actions…

…

There were many other similar messages recorded on it. In the end, the original Imperial Beast Pavilion pavilion master was executed and they had a new pavilion master!

“Do you know what happened at the Imperial Beast Pavilion?” Lu Ming asked.

“No idea.”

Xia Yu shook his head.

He came, according to the plan, to obtain the longbow. He should have already left by now.

“Forget it.”

Lu Ming shook his head.

Whatever they had planned, it was best to get out of there first.

Hence…

The three figures hurried to leave.

Lu Ming was seen leaning on Xiaobai’s small figure and Xia Yu limped behind them. They took the original route and reached the core of the array.

It was a mess.

Due to the self-destruction of the Restart Array, there was nothing left.

The green lights dimmed.

This was the weakest place in the ruins!

“We have arrived.”

Lu Ming’s heart trembled.

Soon…

They could leave.

According to the plan, as long as they went to the core of the array, there was a chance to leave!

Lu Ming looked at the sword in his hands.

Although…

Although his sister’s Sword Embryo had lost its luster…

“Xiaolan. Are you able to hang on?” Lu Ming whispered.

“Yes.”

Xiaolan transmitted its determined thoughts to him.

With Lu Ming, it felt something it had never felt before…

That was… camaraderie!

That was… the feeling of fighting together!

With Lu Yan, all it felt was fright and fear. There was no camaraderie and it did not need to assist Lu Yan. Lu Yan had no need for that!

Becoming one with the sword?

Sorry.

Lu Yan could do so by herself!

Assist in the optimization?

Sorry.

Lu Yan could complete it by herself!

Therefore…

Xiaolan always felt that it was useless. Its existed to navigate when it self-destructed…

That was all.

However, with Lu Ming, it finally found a meaning behind its existence.

Ah…

It turned out that it was such a good feeling to fight together with someone.

“Very good. In that case… I will have to leave it to you.”

Lu Ming looked grim.

“Understood!”

Xiaolan sounded serious.

Shush!

Lu Ming inserted the long sword into the ground.

Bang!

An ice blue aura surged.

“Right now I have depleted too much of my energy and I need some time.” Xiaolan transmitted its thoughts.

According to the original plan, it would only take a few seconds to blast the green lights. However, its energy was too weak now. It could only devour the green lights bit by bit.

“Understood.”

Lu Ming and the group guarded its side.

Buzz—

The blue lights began to devour the green lights…

However…

At this moment.

Bang!

Bang!

Loud sounds could be heard.

A distance away.

Many roars could be heard in the ruins.

Groups of powerful and terrifying spirit beasts appeared. They came flying out from the Imperial Beast Pavilion and they suddenly charged into the ruins where Li Jianli and the rest were buried.

Bang!

Some spirit beasts went underneath to bring them out!

“Haha! I am out!”

There was a murderous intent in Li Jianli’s cold voice. “Where is Lu Ming? You better come out right now!”

Shush!

Terrifying auras filled the air.

Li Jianli focused on Lu Ming. He stepped onto the spirit beasts and flew into the air.

Yes.

Some of the spirit beasts could fly.

…

At this very moment…

The frost sword in Lu Ming’s hands glowed.

Buzz—

Buzz—

A faint light flickered.

It was still slowly absorbing the green lights. It had depleted a lot of energy when it fought with the police. The impact was too huge and it was almost to the point of collapse!

“Xiaolan. Are you able to hang on?” Lu Ming asked.

“Yes.

But I need some time.”

Xiaolan was anxious.

“It’s okay.”

Lu Ming stood up.

He passed the cards to Xiaobai and gave her some instructions.

Although he was incapable of fighting now, Xiaobai’s abilities were similar to his. Xiaobai could use the cards that he had been using!

Right now…

All they needed to do was to stall and stop these guys…

Lu Ming looked into the distance.

Swoosh!

In the sky.

A beam of lights was directed toward him.

It was Li Jianli.

Shush!

Xiaobai took the cards that Lu Ming handed to her.

“Master. Don’t worry. I am here.”

Xiaobai stood in front of Lu Ming like an adult.

“Okay.”

Lu Ming nodded slightly.

However…

To their surprise, right then in the void, the beam of light that carried Li Jianli came flying across the sky and…

Swoosh!

Plunged into the nearby ruins!

Bang!

There was a loud bang.

Huh???

Lu Ming was dazed.

W-what was that?!

…

At this moment…

Among the ruins at the Imperial Beast Pavilion.

A figure carefully lurked in the vicinity. He was hidden in the ruins. He had many wounds but he kept himself hidden.

He could not be exposed!

Once exposed…

All hope would be gone.

He was too weak.

But he had his own way to survive.

Since the extermination of the traitor, he had found some interesting information and he searched for some information and rumors in the ancient books…

Yes.

While others were searching for treasures and divine weapons, he was searching for ancient books.

From then on, he knew the key to breaking the arrangement.

Although on the surface it was a Spiritualist legacy with the Breeze Pavilion, Imperial Beast Pavilion, Classics Pavilion, Divine Weapon Pavilion and more, his only hope was…

The Imperial Beast Pavilion!

This was the place where there were a bunch of spirit beasts!

Yes.

It had no owner!

It was very strange!

He did not know why either.

The ancient books that he found said that there used to be a pavilion master. He was a Beast Tamer and a cultivator. However, he died for some unknown reason and the spirit beasts were left without an owner… The so-called new pavilion master was merely selected among the spirit beasts!

They had spiritual consciousness and their intelligence was comparable to that of a man.

But in the end…

They were merely spirit beasts!

It could be said that it was a place full of spirit beasts!

Well…

There was hope.

Therefore, after understanding this, he went to the Treasures Pavilion to look for the items that he wanted. After which, he returned to the Imperial Beast Pavilion!

Divine Weapon Pavilion?

He did not dare to go there.

He was too weak. He would die if he hid among the police!

Zhang Wei did not know other people well. But the young man who was the leader was a cautious and ruthless leader. There was no way to hide from him!

Everyone had a number.

Everyone had a mission.

Everyone’s aura was recognizable.

Impersonation?

He would be dead meat!

Therefore…

He did not even consider the Divine Weapon Pavilion.

Or rather…

There was no need to consider it at all.

He knew very well what the problem of Qing Ming City was now. What happened now was merely because the thousand-year-old sect and the conspiracy of the police had yet to be discovered!

Once discovered…

Hehe.

Zhang Wei sneered.

Whoosh—

There was a faint breeze.

Zhang Wei felt cool. This place had the best ventilation.

He was lying in the ruins, revealing only his big eyes. He watched the spirit beasts in the far distance, excitement and anticipation in his eyes.

In his hands…

Was the spiritual liquid that he had prepared beforehand.

Hehe…

The spirit beasts…

Spring was here and it was mating season…

…

“Argh—”

“Ooo—”

There were howls of excitement.

The spirit beasts that had rescued the Spiritualists were very excited. Some rolled around on the ground while some rubbed against the walls. Some even pressed down onto the Spiritualists…

Bang!

Bang!

The entire ruins fell into chaos.

All the Spiritualists were dumbstruck. They could smell something in the air…

Damn it!

This was the aphrodisiac-like spiritual liquid meant for the spirit beasts!

“Hurry!

“Dispel the smell in the air.

“Seal the mouths and noses of the spirit beasts!”

The Spiritualists were alarmed.

After a long while…

They barely controlled the messy situation.

Right then.

Xiaolan glowed and was at the last critical stage.

Bang!

A blue beam of light shot into the sky!

Lu Yan’s aura exploded once again!

“Are those things… on our side?”

Xiaolan’s thoughts were transmitted on and off.

“Yes.”

Lu Ming looked to a distance.

He could see that the spirit beasts were a mess. Although he had no idea who the person behind it was, apparently the person was on their side.

“Great.”

Xiaolan was joyous.

Teammates?

This sense of… camaraderie…

It is wonderful.

Buzz—

The blue lights were a dazzling brilliance!

The frosty blue aura shot straight into the clouds!

“Xiaolan!”

Lu Ming could sense that something was not right.

This aura…

Self-destruction!

Damn! Why did it self-destruct again?

“Are you mad?!”

Lu Ming was taken aback.

“It’s okay.”

Xiaolan transmitted its thoughts. “This is my mission… I have depleted too much of my energy. I have to self-destruct to penetrate the green lights left by the Restart Array!

“Also…

“Thank you!

“You made me realize that… it is… such a wonderful feeling to fight together with someone…”

Shush!

Its thoughts became on and off.

“Xiaolan.”

Lu Ming was alarmed.

“It’s okay.

“I… I won’t die.”

Xiaolan actually smiled. “Hey… when my owner’s Sword Embryo condenses once again, I will be alive… By then, I hope that we can still fight together…

“If possible, I hope to become your sword spirit…”

Swoosh!

The blue radiance penetrated into the sky.

Bang!

The green barrier cracked instantly.

The Sword Embryo died.

…

“Rest in peace.”

Lu Ming was awestruck.

This was a qualified sword spirit!

Xiaolan…

It was indeed his sister’s sword spirit!

This was his first encounter with a real sword spirit. It was impressive! At the very least, it was more than one level higher than his wild sword spirit!

Perhaps this was the willpower of a sword spirit?

Xiao-Xiaojian was silent.

Xiaolan was dead.

The Sword Embryo had self-destructed.

Although they did not know each other for long, they were after all acquaintances. Therefore, it could not help but… curse! It swore at Xiaolan!

It was true!

Was this sword spirit out of its mind?! What did it mean by saying “If possible, I hope to become your sword spirit…”

To hell with that!

Didn’t it think about its death?

It had self-destructed!

When it was with Lu Yan, it self-destructed!

When it was with Lu Ming, it self-destructed as well!

The only difference was that Lu Yan ordered it to self-destruct while in the case of Lu Ming, it sacrificed itself and self-destructed of its own accord…

What was the damn difference?!

Was it a fool?

Therefore, the only remark that it had was that Lu Yan’s sword spirit was not very smart…

Dee—

Dee—

His wristband vibrated.

They had service!

The remnants of the Restart Array had been destroyed!

The green lights…

They were gone!

“Is this finally over?”

Xia Yu felt relieved.

He had fought until now and he had reached his limits.

“Yes.”

Lu Ming looked toward the sky. “It should be over, right?”

At this moment…

All they could see were the blue lights that surged into the sky…

…

Bang!

A beam of blue light shot into the sky!

It broke through the green barrier created from the self-destruction of the Restart Array and penetrated through all the remaining barriers. Almost all the nearby cities could sense the aura.

“Did something happen to Qing Ming City?!”

“Report it immediately!”

…

“Damn it!”

“My brother is still in Qing Ming City.”

A cultivator who was still fighting with his enemies looked at the surging aura and knew that something was amiss. The cultivator left the ruins and rushed to Qing Ming City.

…

Somewhere.

A middle-aged man sensed for a moment, there was a murderous glint in his eyes.

“Nonsense!

“All these old people…

“If anything happens to my disciples, I will dig out all of your ancestors’ graves with the bulldozer!”

Bang!

Lights and shadows flashed.

The middle-aged man hurried to Qing Ming City.

…

At this very moment…

Zhao Yunshan who was in Tian Du City received a call from his family. “Yunshan, Yunshan, where are you? Are you still in Qing Ming City?”

“I left long ago,” Zhao Yunshan replied, “I am in Tian Du City.”

“That’s good.”

The person on the other side heaved a sigh of relief.

“What has happened?”

Zhao Yunshan was puzzled.

“Qing Ming City… Heh.”

The other party sighed. “Don’t think about it. It’s good that you are back.”

Zhao Yunshan’s heart sank.

Qing Ming City…

Did anything happen to it?

Hence…

He got hold of information about Qing Ming City with the help of some of his friends and he turned silent. Although he had left, Lu Ming and Xiaobai were still there!

Hence…

He called a veteran. “Senior, I am afraid you have to make a trip…”

…

Starry Sky Pavilion.

The old man looked at Qing Ming City in a daze. It was odd. Why was the result different from what was expected?

“Was there a mistake in the deduction? Did the 0.01% appear again?”

He sighed.

Perhaps he was too old?

Recently, he had had a higher percentage of error than he imagined…

Or perhaps…

This was destiny?

Hence…

He pondered deeply for a moment before he summoned the disciple that he had taken in recently. “Purchase a batch of the little blue pills for me again.”

The disciple was silent.

He remembered the recent rumor about the Starry Sky Pavilion and his legs shook.

After a long while…

He barely got up.

True enough.

There is no way to avoid it?

…
