Chapter 401 - The Female Dark Knight
“The food in the shop is indeed delicious, but the quantity is limited!” Looking at the frustrated Jiang Xuan and his guards, Jiang Xiaoyue explained quietly with a guilty expression, “The shop doesn’t give anyone extra food!”
“It’s more than delicious!” Jiang Xuan commented with chopsticks in his hand. “A sip of Coke refreshed my mind; a mouthful of instant noodles purified my spiritual essence; one bite of the sausage energized my body; and the spicy sticks…”
“There’s more!” Zhen Yan looked at the milk tea in his hand, feeling stunned. “After one sip of this, I feel like the red flame energy in my body is much purer than before!”
Xue Ming, the other guard, held the small cup of milk tea in his huge, fan-sized hand and said in wonder, “There’s more! The Chilly Hell Scroll that I cultivate has a negative side effect on my body, and I have to take spiritual herbs to help me resist this effect but couldn’t remove the root cause. However, with one sip of this milk tea, the chilly energy in my body merged with this warm current. Now I feel none of the effect even if I don’t suppress it intentionally!”
“What?!” Zhen Yan almost stood up in shock
The Chilly Hell Scroll is very powerful, but its side effect is a big problem that even His Majesty can’t solve!
However, a cup of milk tea solved this problem!
How can the Deserted Sea Realm have such good stuff?!
Remembering the shop owner’s great strength, he sat back down before his butt left the couch.
Jiang Xuan stared at Mr. Fang with a serious expression. “Sir, can’t you make an exception? I can pay more for another bowl of instant noodles!”
Mr. Fang was unmoved while the people around them looked like they had anticipated this answer.
“Name your price!” Jiang Xuan said with a frown.
Seeing that Mr. Fang was still unmoved, Jiang Xuan walked to Jiang Xiaoyue and asked in a low voice, “Little sister… How can the shop owner do business like this? How come he refuses to sell more food?! You’re close to him; can’t you ask him to sell one more bowl to me?!”
“What are you talking about?!” Jiang Xiaoyue said sulkily, “Even I can only have one bowl!”
“What?!” It was a piece of painful news.
However…
Jiang Xuan asked in a deep voice, “What’s the background of the shop owner? Didn’t they mention a… senior?”
“Are they bluffing? They are, right?” Zhen Yan asked, “Could it be that there are seniors in this shop?!”
“Of course, we do.” At this topic, Jiang Xiaoyue got excited. “For example, the heavenly sword spirit that the shop owner just used comes from Senior No Name; the sword control technique comes from Senior Liquor Sword Immortal; Senior Nalan’s Sword 23 comes from the Old Sword Saint, and it can suppress space with one sword technique, trapping everyone inside!”
“Ugh…” They felt goosebumps all over their bodies. Jiang Xuan said in disbelief, “Can it… really suppress space?”
“Of course!” Jiang Xiaoyue snorted smugly, “Wherever the sword spirit of Sword 23 goes, nothing but the mind can move! People can only wait there to be butchered!”
Then, she showed them two moves from Saint Spiritual Sword Techniques.
They exchanged a look.
Could it be that such techniques really exist?!
After all, most of the cultivators could only create spatial arrays with the Law of Space. The more powerful people could build teleportation arrays, and the spatial techniques that could be used in battle were all extremely powerful.
Jiang Xuan was surprised that someone in this place could use the Law of Space in battle, and this guy was even a warrior!
“Humph! It’s not surprising for an ultimate master to suppress space,” Jiang Xuan said with a snort, “But I’m surprised that there are such people in this place!”
“It’s our fault that we didn’t pay a visit to the seniors when we arrived,” Jiang Xuan said, “Can you introduce us to them?”
– Half an hour later –
“You mean there are more powerful figures?!” Jiang Xuan exclaimed, “The master named Dante can even control time?!”
They all stood up, having never felt so shocked before.
“Yeah.” Jiang Xiaoyue was smug. “I’m playing Devil May Cry 3 too. Uncle Dante is so dashing!”
“Ugh…” They looked at each other, and then Jiang Xuan asked, “Can we meet this Senior Dante?”
…
– Three hours later –
The three people finally got online after waiting in line for so long. “I didn’t know people must wait in line to see Senior Dante!”
Under Jiang Xiaoyue’s guidance, they began the cheerful journey in Devil May Cry 3.
“Hey! Ha! Heha!”
On the screens, the three of them swung the big swords wildly.
“No! No! It’s not fun to fight this way.” Then, Jiang Xiaoyue showed them a fancy combo.
– A while later –
“Humph! I’ve finally reached that Demonic Horse Geryon too!” Controlling Dante, Jiang Xiaoyue was quite smug, and she said while showing off, “After this stage, I, too, can understand the Law of Time!”
“We can do this?!” Jiang Xuan and his guards looked at each other.
“By the way, Shu Mountain is very good too! I’ll show it to you later!” With great pride, Jiang Xiaoyue recommended the good stuff to them one by one as if she were showing the collections of her family.
The three men were at a loss for words.
What on earth had happened to the Deserted Sea Realm?!
Have we fallen behind or has the world changed too fast?!
…
– Meanwhile in the Nanhua Faction –
The Forbidden Place in the back mountain of Nanhua Faction was no longer there. After the reconstruction of the Nanhua Faction, a simple and quiet cottage appeared at the peak of the back mountain of the faction.
Standing in the courtyard, Shui Xianyun held her breath, and her pale face turned red.
“Devil Trigger!” With a shout, a big surge of black essence rushed out of her body, and tiny, dense scales grew on her crystal-like arms and neck. Even her pupils turned red.
Her smooth forehead slightly bulged while two black horns stuck out. A weird smile appeared on her face.
Then, her expression changed, and a ton of black essence flowed back into her body like a whale sucking in water. Pale-faced, she exhaled deeply and murmured, “This force is still difficult to control… After playing Devil May Cry for so long, I still can’t fully master it. It seems like I need to play it some more.”
– Meanwhile in Half City –
The fancy estate to the east of Heaven-Hiding Pavilion was the residence of a demonic woman; no one dared to venture inside to disturb her.
However, creepy laughter was always floating out of the mansion lately.
“Hahahahaha! It’s amazing that this shop has such a method to control the weird force in my body,” A charming voice came from the depth of the estate.
It was a snow-white building as grand as a palace.
– Inside the grand hall of the mansion that was luxuriously decorated –
“Aya… I’m no longer pretty in this form. I’d better change back…”
A huge green tail slowly shrank, and a human figure with beautiful curves gradually appeared in the grand hall. A pair of white, jade-like feet were revealed under the long green dress. While the fangs retracted into her mouth, her green eyes looked surprised.
Now she looked completely like a human.
“Humph!” Soon, two fangs showed themselves again, and her face returned to chilliness. “Tomorrow, I’ll learn the Devil Trigger combo from the shop owner. Soon, I will become the No.1 Dark Knight in this world!”
She yawned lazily and remembered that she must learn Orochi Divine Light. “I feel like I don’t have enough time to learn all this stuff…”
