Qing Ming City.

In the ruins.

Lu Ming hung up the call.

Base…

The Qing Ming City situation had come to a close. Lu Ming had wanted to make a trip to Tian Du City to look at the so-called base. Of course, before this, he had to contact Jiang Feng.

Ring!

Ring!

His call connected very quickly.

“Hello? What is the matter?”

Jiang Feng’s furious holler and the familiar… panting noises could be heard from the other side of the call.

“Where are you?”

Lu Ming sighed.

“It’s nothing. I-I’m… looking at the sea,” Jiang Feng said while panting.

“I’ll be bringing Xiaobai to Tian Du City,” Lu Ming went straight to the point.

“No!”

This was Jiang Feng’s first reaction. “If you have something to do there, let Xiaobai stay at home. I’ll go there once I finish what I have to do.”

“Your house is gone.”

Lu Ming sighed. “Why is it that you never follow the news? The shop is gone, your house is gone, all of Qing Ming City is gone…”

There was a long silence on the other side of the phone.

After a long while…

Jiang Feng’s faint voice could be heard. “Did you tear it down?”

Lu Ming’s face darked instantly. “Old Jiang, although we’re on good terms, I’ll still sue you for defamation if you sprout nonsense! What does this have to do with me?

“I remember that you said this about the Lunar Shadow legacy too.”

Jiang Feng’s tone was sullen.

Lu Ming was silent.

“Forget it. Tian Du City… is good too.”

Jiang Feng contemplated for a long time. Lu Yan was in Tian Du City and it might be safer there. “Go ahead. Please take care of Xiaobai and pay attention to safety. Don’t tear down other people’s things for no reason…”

Lu Ming hung up the call with a black face.

Damn! What kind of person does he think I am!

Am I that kind of person?

Tian Du City…

Big shots are everywhere in Tian Du City. Who would dare to tear down the place for no reason?!

However…

Come to think of it…

Lu Ming suddenly thought of the bull-riding big shot Iron Hammer and the fact that the walls of The First Academy had once been torn down. Well… When he pondered about the details, cough…

I don’t know anything!!!

…

The next day.

Early morning.

Lu Ming and Xiaobai stepped onto the new energy high-speed train to Tian Du City. Along the way, he then had some time to reorganize his thoughts about what had recently happened lately.

First of all.

He was quite satisfied with his combat performance.

He was merely a four-star. Nevertheless, he succeeded when he competed with a group of five-star and six-stars during the assessment. His talent was alright.

This was despite the fact that it was all a conspiracy.

In every combat, he unleashed his abilities to the maximum!

For example—

The fight that represented his ultimate limit!

That policeman-turned-evil old man had peak six-star combat ability and was super powerful. In the end, he still managed to kill him!

Even though he had used his sister’s sword…

Oo…

In that case, he also had the ability to slay a peak six-star then?!

Very good!

His upper limit had increased again!

As to the gap in ability between the Sword Embryos…

This was obviously Xiao-Xiaojian’s fault! He believed that if Xiao-Xiaojian could catch up and possess power comparable to that of Xiaolan, killing six-stars would no longer be a dream!

“Look, I self-destructed twice.

“Why didn’t I kill that guy when I collaborated with you but managed to kill him when I collaborated with Xiaolan?”

Lu Ming heaved continuous sighs.

Xiao-Xiaojian turned sullen.

Damn!

Without me, how could you have become one with Xiaolan? Letting it penetrate your body? You weren’t happy about being penetrated in the tummy. Do you want to change to another angle or position for the penetration?

Furthermore, what do you mean that the fault lies with me?

Xiaolan is powerful because Lu Yan is powerful, alright?! What did it have to do with you? If you attained a breakthrough to six-star, I would definitely be more powerful than Xiaolan!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Xiao-Xiaojian was glowing fervently.

Lu Ming could not be bothered with it. He simply tucked it into the card bag.

Well…

He continued to analyze the situation.

Although his combat performance was passable, his weak ability was also an Achilles’ heel. Fortunately, Xiaobai had been following him closely and Xia Yu had also come to help, so they eventually survived.

Afterward…

The conclusion was that… he had suffered a huge loss!

This was Lu Ming’s only thought.

It was true!

Although he had advanced from beginner four-star to intermediate four-star during the assessment and his ability had advanced tremendously, he lost his most precious thing!

Life!

He had burned an entire year of his life!

“Xiaobai.”

“Yes.”

“Does Master look older now?”

“No.”

Xiaobai blinked her big eyes and scrutinized Lu Ming seriously.

“Really? Are there any wrinkles?”

Lu Ming kept feeling that there were wrinkles on his face.

“Master looks more dashing now.”

Xiaobai lunged over and touched Lu Ming’s face with her fair and tender hands. It felt cool and comfortable. “I don’t feel any wrinkles.”

“Really?”

Lu Ming felt grateful.

Fortunately…

There were not many repercussions.

His unrivaled good looks were still at their prime!

However, it was still a serious matter to lose one year of life. If he had the chance, he would definitely make up for it! After all, he was already a few years older than Xiaobai!

Well…

There was one more thing left.

Legacy!

Yes.

The legacy of the Breeze Pavilion!

That pavilion master who tried to take over Lu Ming’s body was blasted to death by one slap of Brother Cat. He had left behind the legacy in its purest form after he disappeared!

That was an enormous ball of light that shone with dazzling splendor!

It was the complete Spiritualist legacy!

It was sheer pity…

Crash!

There was a deafening sound in his Sea of Consciousness.

The ball of light was bouncing on the walls of the Sea of Consciousness several times until it dropped onto the ground. A shadow flashed and the ball of light bounced up again…

Yes.

This thing had become a cat toy…

“Brother Cat?”

Lu Ming spoke gingerly.

The black cat cast Lu Ming a sideways glance.

Crash!

It bounced the ball of light again and looked with interest as the ball of light bumped onto the walls, eventually dropping to the ground and then bouncing up again.

Lu Ming was speechless.

A—alright.

It was seldom that Brother Cat was that enthusiastic.

The Sea of Consciousness was empty and most things could not be stored there. Normally, Brother Cat would only sleep and it was rare for him to be keen on playing games.

“Let’s talk later once Brother Cat is sick of playing with it.”

Lu Ming gave a deep sigh.

Oh.

That was right!

He remembered the vice pavilion master on Xiaobai’s end!

When the two pavilion masters possessed him and Xiaobai, Brother Cat killed the one on his side. The one on Xiaobai’s side had died of suffocation as it had zero talent affinity with Xiaobai.

“Xiaobai. Did that guy who entered your body leave anything behind?”

Lu Ming asked in a bright voice.

“It seems to have left behind something whitish.”

Xiaobai remembered that a stretch of white radiance had appeared when that person disappeared.

“Is it still around now?”

Lu Ming’s eyes lit up.

True enough.

Xiaobai also had a legacy!

“I don’t know.”

Xiaobai was a little lost.

She remembered that a white radiance had flashed and then there was nothing else.

“Let me look.”

Lu Ming was tempted.

“Okay.”

Xiaobai obediently moved closer to Lu Ming.

In front of them, an aged old man heard their terrible conversation. He then saw how young Xiaobai looked and decided to call the police immediately…

Afterward, Lu Ming was arrested.

“Sigh… It’s a misunderstanding. It’s really a misunderstanding.”

“Shut up!”

“Come here.”

“Young lady, tell me. Did he bully you?”

The attendant gently called out to Xiaobai. Upon confirming that she and Lu Ming were not engaged in a messy relationship, she then allowed Lu Ming to leave.

“Be careful when you’re out in the future!

“Don’t say things that can easily lead to a misunderstanding in public,” the attendant warned.

“I didn’t…”

“Shut up! Don’t argue!”

“Okay.”

“That’s right.”

The attendant rolled her eyes and then squatted down and told Xiaobai, “Young lady, remember, this is my contact number. If he bullies you, you can contact me at any time.”

Lu Ming was speechless.

Xiaobai was silent.

After a long while…

The duo returned to their seats and glanced at each other.

It was… a terrible experience.

“Forget it.”

Lu Ming scratched his head.

The other party did this for Xiaobai’s sake. Hence, he did not say anything.

“Come here. Let me in…”

Just as Lu Ming wanted to say something, he spotted the look of warning in the eyes of the old man, obviously from the Chao Yang area, and quickly changed his script. “Let’s try to be in sync.”

“Okay.”

Xiaobai opened her Sea of Consciousness.

Lu Ming pulled Xiaobai’s little hand and harmonized their Sea of Consciousnesses again.

It was a pity…

He did not see a single thing…

The legacy of that vice pavilion master had already disappeared!

Obviously…

As there was no affinity in talent or abilities, this person failed both the possession and integration. His legacy also dissipated directly and nothing was left of it.

“It’s such a pity.”

Lu Ming felt a little regretful.

Judging from this, he would only wait for Brother Cat to become tired of playing…

The legacy of the Breeze Pavilion…

He very much looked forward to it!

…

After a long while…

The high-speed train had arrived at the station.

Lu Ming stepped out of the station and saw the lady who had come to fetch him. He saw a familiar pair of huge boobs, smelt a familiar smell and felt a familiar evil from the depths of her heart.

“Brother Lu Ming, I’m here to fetch you.”

The lady smiled sweetly, seemingly wanting to melt steel.

Whoosh!

Lu Ming felt a ball of fire inside.

Again…

Lu Ming was between laughter and tears.

Undoubtedly, Li Tiantian was again the one who had come to fetch him!

“Come on,” Li Tiantian said gently.

Snort!

Can I not subdue you?

She had remembered that Lu Ming disregarded her charm previously and wasted all her efforts. On this occasion, she had to defeat Lu Ming!

She had advanced in her charm now!

Many ladies in the dormitory could not resist her, how could Lu Ming?

Snort…

“Come here.”

She held Lu Ming’s hand.

A familiar feeling emerged again. It was gentle and soothing and balls of flames were burning in Lu Ming’s heart…

Lu Ming was between laughter and tears.

Why did she have to do that?

Seriously…

Although the charm attack was frightening, Brother Cat was around…

Lu Ming instinctively wanted to return to his Sea of Consciousness to stroke Brother Cat. However, just at this moment, a childish voice suddenly emerged.

“Big sister, your legs are so short,” Xiaobai spoke.

Shush!

The world suddenly turned silent.

The scorching flames that filled Lu Ming disappeared without a trace.

Li Tiantian almost succeeded in her charm but was interrupted due to the huge blow that she suffered.

Widening her eyes in disbelief, she glanced at the young lady beside Lu Ming. Oh, she heard that this was Lu Ming’s little disciple. Therefore, she did not think much of it.

But…

Too short?!!

What did she mean?!

She had thought that her figure was near-to-perfect. Although her legs were not considered long, how could they be short?

“My legs are short?” Li Tiantian enunciated every word.

“Yes,” Xiaoqing said seriously, “They are much shorter than that of Sister Xiaoqing!”

Shush!

The atmosphere suddenly turned stiff.

“I don’t believe it!”

Li Tiantian sneered.

“It’s true.”

Xiaoqing fished out the photo that she had taken with Gao Xiaoqing. Li Tiantian took a glance and fell silent immediately. Her long and slim legs almost occupied the entire screen…

Did this lady grow up eating legs?!

Lu Ming looked at the sky and pretended not to see anything.

Actually…

Li Tiantian’s figure was near-to-perfect. Coupled with her good looks and voluptuous bust, she belonged to the female goddess category. However, if she was comparing her with Xiaoqing’s legs alone…

Cough.

“Is your master on good terms with her?”

Li Tiantian suddenly asked.

It turned out that Lu Ming had a preference. It was no wonder that her charm did not work! It was useless to have huge boobs. Normal size would do. She also had to be tall and long-legged!

“They are on very good terms.”

Xiaoqing said, “Sister Xiaoqing even left some blood at home last time.”

Li Tiantian looked puzzled.

Blood?

At home?

Could it be that…

“You have a thing for such a type, indeed!”

Li Tiantian cast a curious and shocked gaze at Lu Ming.

Lu Ming turned sullen.

This was really… a terrible misunderstanding!

“What nonsense!”

Lu Ming patted the little girl beside him unhappily.

Xiaobai looked down, her little face blushing.

Snort!

Li Tiantian touched Master the moment she had come. She could tell with one glance that she was of those bad girls… However, perhaps it was not okay to take out Sister Xiaoqing’s photo?

She felt somewhat ashamed.

Sister Xiaoqing most probably would not mind?

“Let’s go.

“I’ll bring you guys home first.”

Li Tiantian felt like keeping to herself.

She always believed in her charm, which could vanquish her peers regardless of gender. Unexpectedly, she was defeated when it came to Lu Ming. Furthermore, the reason was… her short legs!

This was not logical!

Her charm even worked on ladies!

Even her next door dormitory mate, Cui Hua, did not escape from her clutches…

Lu Ming…

Could it be that his preference for long and slender legs goes beyond gender considerations?

“Where’s my sister?”

Lu Ming took the initiative to ask.

“She was brought away by her master.”

Li Tiantian seemed somewhat troubled. She then said, “Her master appeared in the female dormitory early in the morning and simply took her away… She said something like ‘You self-destruct if I don’t keep a watch over you for one day! Come back! She then carried your sister and ran off immediately… I didn’t even manage to speak a word with her!

“Humph. She’s too much!

“So what if she’s a seven-star!

“She can do as she pleased just because she’s very powerful?

“And those boobs…

“She must have undergone a plastic surgery to make them that huge!”

Li Tiantian complained incessantly.

Lu Ming looked down and pretended not to hear anything.

Xiaobai clutched onto the corner of her master’s shirt and pretended not to hear too.

Ah, this lady’s words are so shameless… Do all the ladies in the society speak like that?

“Don’t worry.”

Li Tiantian did not forget to tell Lu Ming. “When your Sister Tiantian has bigger boobs… Ah spat… becomes more powerful, I’ll definitely snatch your sister back!”

Lu Ming was speechless.

Why did he have a hunch that…

Sister Tiantian was more concerned with his sister than typical men?!

Could it be that…

He looked at the hem of Li Tiantian’s skirt suspiciously, deeply fearful that a huge ‘gun’ would emerge from inside it suddenly…

“Well?”

Li Tiantian noticed Lu Ming’s gaze and her heart stirred slightly.

Tsk tsk…

He was ultimately a teenager!

So what if he fancied long slender legs? He still could not restrain himself from zettai ryōiki¹… Therefore, she even took the initiative to lift up the hem of her skirt.

Lu Ming was between laughter and tears.

Sister Tiantian was really unexpectedly affectionate!

“Sister Tiantian, actually, you don’t need to come with us.”

Lu Ming took the initiative to steer away from the topic, because he felt that if he were to continue like that, they would be ‘censored’ sooner or later… A few policemen had been sweeping their gazes at them several times.

“I’ve been to Tian Du City a few times and I know the way,” Lu Ming said.

“It’s okay.”

Li Tiantian smiled sweetly. “I promised your sister yesterday. I’ll bring you to your destination.”

Of course, she was not going to say that she volunteered to come to exact revenge…

It was a pity…

Before she could seek revenge on the failure of her charm, she had already suffered a huge blow.

“Where are you going?”

Li Tiantian asked after exiting the train station.

“No. 99, Beihai Road.”

Lu Ming remembered this address.

“Huh?”

The expression on Li Tiantian’s face froze instantly. She looked at Lu Ming with disbelief and said, “Little boy, don’t tell me you’re going there to take nude photos as a collateral for a loan again?!”

“What do you mean?”

Lu Ming was speechless.

Was he that kind of person?

Besides Little Lu Ming that dumbass, who else would do that?

No. 99, Beihai Road…

What kind of lousy place was that? What did it have to do with using nude photos as collateral?

Wait a minute.

Lu Ming suddenly paused for a moment and looked at Li Tiantian. “You just said ‘again’?!”

Li Tiantian looked into the sky. “Ha… Brother Lu Ming, look, the weather today is so good…”

Lu Ming was expressionless.

Li Tiantian also knew about the matter of the nude photos?!
