Divine Card Creator (WN)

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Qing Ming City.

The matter at the Leisure Hotel had caused a huge stir. Nevertheless, Lu Ming kept a low profile by cooping himself in the shop and creating cards, pretending that he did not have anything to do with it.

At night.

A customer suddenly entered the shop.

“Hello.”

Xiaobai stepped forward. “Can I help you?”

The customer’s swept a suspicious gaze on Xiaobai. “That… I am looking for Lu Ming.”

“Yes?”

Lu Ming looked up.

His gaze landed on the customer.

He looked like he was over twenty years old and did not possess any special aura. He should be an ordinary cultivator. He was certain that he did not know such a person.

“Hello.”

Lu Ming got up. “I am Lu Ming.”

After staring at Lu Ming for a long time, the customer muttered, “You look quite different from the photos.”

Photos…

Lu Ming’s heart flipped. Could it be…

No!

Impossible!

He had clearly destroyed all the photos. He even annihilated the people involved!

What to do?

Should he exterminate him…

“Hello, I am your sister’s friend.”

The customer introduced himself. “She showed me your photo before but I didn’t expect you to look better in person!”

So, that was the case.

Lu Ming quickly invited him in.

Since he was his sister’s friend, of course, he had to make him feel welcomed.

As for the comment about his good looks…

Ha.

He was already used to such praises.

“The purpose of my visit is to tell you something.”

The customer said, “In a month, the Lunar Shadow legacy will commence. There will be seven Lunar Shadow Legacy inheritors this time and each of them will be bringing a Card Creator along to crack the restraints. Your sister has chosen you!”

“Huh?”

Lu Ming’s mind went blank.

Him?

Was this a joke?!

Didn’t his sister know his capability level?

Legacy was a very important matter. Typically, they select the most powerful and suitable assistants. Why did his sister choose him? Although Lu Ming was confident of his solid foundation, he was only a two-star Card Creator!

“Don’t worry.

Your sister is not interested in legacy.”

The customer repeated Lu Yan’s words, “She has a better legacy. This time, she really and simply wants you to widen your horizons and improve your card creating skills.”

W-widen his horizons?

Lu Ming’s expression was perplexed.

The customer’s expression was even more confusing.

Why didn’t he have such a sister?

He had once looked for Lu Yan to acknowledge her as a godsister, attempting to cozy up to this powerful figure, but he ended up receiving a beating instead…

The world is so heartless…

“Of course.

The purpose of my visit this time is also to seek your opinion.

Before we begin, your sister wanted to ask whether you’re willing to participate?”

The customer asked seriously.

Whether he would participate?

Lu Ming was stunned.

He analyzed this matter calmly.

Legacy…

He had researched it before.

In legacy, what was important was not only the outcome but also the process!

This was because every experience that you go through can improve your ability. It was not restricted to the inheritor but also the cultivator who had not embarked on the path of legacy!

Combat experience…

Energy level…

All these things would improve!

That was the reason for the craze and popularity of legacy.

Furthermore, due to the card seal, the Lunar Shadow legacy this time needed Card Creators. Hence, the restriction was certainly something related to card creation!

If they could crack the restraints, his card creating standards would definitely improve by leaps and bounds!

There was no doubt about it.

It could be said that…

If Lu Ming were to participate in the legacy, his ability in all areas would definitely improve, whether he completed it or not.

Of course.

According to his sister’s intent, he didn’t need to complete it…

Well…

Widen his horizons?

Lu Ming was seemingly deep in thoughts. It could be that Little Lu Ming was too cowardly or she wanted to see if this little lad really wanted to improve his ability!

Well…

In the beginning, Little Lu Ming also had ambitions!

Although he was stubborn and rebellious, he wanted to be a Card Creator and earn the chance to help his sister… Yes, Little Lu Ming initially had such thoughts.

Although he had turned cold later on…

“I agree.”

Lu Ming agreed without any hesitation.

Lunar Shadow legacy…

This was such a good chance. There was no reason that he would not participate, right?!

Ultimately, he was the one who personally took that Lunar Shadow Card!

He had to participate!

Since he transmigrated to this place, he had gone through so many things. Lu Ming was certain that there was no real place that was safe in this world!

He… had to be powerful enough.

“Very good.”

The customer was glad. “It will be troublesome if you reject me.”

“Why?”

Lu Ming was stunned.

“Because your sister said…”

The customer paused for a while before continuing, “If you decline, it means that you are no longer motivated to progress… You have lost reverence, fear, and vigilance for this world. Instead of being outside, you might as well go home and be a salted fish (Salted fish: Chinese Internet Slang for a boring and idle person with no ambitions)… and lead a peaceful and safe life forever.”

At this point in the conversation.

The customer’s expression looked even more complicated.

Damn, what safe and peaceful life?!

According to his understanding of Lu Yan, he read the meaning of these words as – Brother, if you don’t cultivate properly, you can only go home and inherit the ten millions of yuan that your sister has prepared for you.

This was so frustrating.

In fact, he had thought of secretly giving Lu Ming a beating before he came.

Well…

Forget it now.

“Is it too late for me to change now?”

Lu Ming sighed.

He suddenly felt that becoming a salted fish at home is not bad either!

The customer cast an unfriendly look at him.

Hehe.

This damn guy. He was showing off his sister in front of him!

“It’s a promise, then. These are the materials that your sister has prepared for you.”

The customer took out a pile of books. Lu Ming took a glance. “Five Years of Cracking and Three Years of Encryption”, “Learning the Restrictions from Beginner to Expert Level”…

Alright, he had all the information about restrictions now!

These items could save him a huge amount of money.

“All these are the basics. You should learn them in advance. That will aid you in your learning progress,” explained the customer.

“Anyway, prepare yourself well, and you’ll participate in the Lunar Shadow legacy one month later!”

The customer said seriously, “Your sister has been a little busy recently. My visit this time is to ascertain your current situation and also help her do so.”

His gaze then landed on Xiaobai. “It seems that you’re doing quite well.”

Lu Ming was speechless.

What did you mean by this look of yours?!

“It’s agreed, then.”

The customer was prepared to leave.

However, at this moment, his body wobbled and he fell to the ground.

“Are you alright?”

Lu Ming was startled. He hurried to help him up. Why was this guy suddenly faking an accident for extortion?

“I’m sorry.”

The customer’s face was as white as a sheet. “I thought that I would be able to hang on till the end… Ah… Cough…”

He coughed twice.

Pretending not to care, he took out a tissue and wiped.

On the tissue… was blood.

“It’s okay.”

He waved his hands.

“You don’t need to bother about me.”

That customer got up shakily, his body was still trembling. “There will be trouble if I remain here. Let me go.”

Lu Ming was speechless.

Brother, don’t force yourself when you are already in this state, okay?

It was just that…

Trouble…

Would his enemies come?

Lu Ming swept his gaze to the distance.

However…

Looking at the patrolling guards pacing to and fro at the doors and then the faint side profile of the customer, an incredible thought suddenly formed in Lu Ming’s mind.

Damn!

No way…?

He asked instinctively, “What is your name?”

“Me?”

He scratched his head. “Did I forget to introduce myself? Sorry. My name is Chu Xiao.”

Oh!

He’s Chu Xiao…

Chu… Crap!

“The highly skilled thief Chu Xiao?”

There was a look of disdain on Lu Ming’s face.

“Yes, my reputation is not very good,” Chu Xiao said embarrassingly, “But this time, it’s really not me. I don’t know what scoundrel framed me! I am not so dumb when I do things!”

Lu Ming was speechless.

Wait a minute.

Hence, Chu Xiao actually came to Qing Ming City for his sake?!

Well…

Lu Ming pondered deeply for a moment before he patted Chu Xiao’s shoulder. “Brother, don’t steal so often in the future. See… this is your reward.”

Chu Xiao realized something. Was that so?
