After Favorability Is Maxed-Chapter 254 - 254 Run… My Ass! All of You, Die!
254 Run… My Ass! All of You, Die!
“They came so quickly… And they didn’t even try to hide it. Is he fearless, or is he afraid that a long night will cause more trouble?”
Liu Yuan’s eyes were slightly cold as he looked at the elders of the Jade Mirage Sect palaces who were ready to attack after a shout in the rain.
The three of them were dressed in fluttering Daoist robes and looked like decent people. Liu Yuan did not have the time to pay attention to their appearances. He felt that they were similar to the NPCs of the Jade Mirage Sect in the game. From the patterns on their clothes, they should be from the Vast Sea Palace, which specialized in combat.
Since they were sent to deal with them, considering the strength of Ling Hua, it should indeed be the Vast Sea Palace.
The leader was holding a horsetail whisk while the other two wielded swords. They were the standard members of the Jade Mirage Sect. It was obvious that one of them was a spell cultivator while the other two were sword cultivators.
!!
The three of them were all at the Form Synthesis stage and above level 65. It was clear that they had made up their minds about this operation.
Ling Hua was at level 66 of the Form Synthesis stage. She had consumed a lot of spiritual energy to suppress the shadow dragon. She had no chance of winning against three opponents at the same level.
The Scarlet Fire Palace disciple who had died in the dragon’s stomach had definitely not poured the blood of an ordinary flood dragon or a mixed-blood dragon into the river. It was most likely the precious blood of a true dragon.
Otherwise, this shadow dragon would never have become so strong. If it was not for Ling Hua’s prompt decision to nail it to death with the sword array, who knew how much it would have evolved?
In the rain, Ling Hua’s expression remained unchanged on her cold and beautiful face. However, she raised her Demon Subduing Sword and pointed it at the three elders.
Her gaze swept across the elders’ faces and she smiled faintly. “The mouths of many can melt gold, and even bones will be destroyed. I’ve learned my lesson… Please, do your worst.”
With a twist of her wrist, a cold glint flashed across the blade of her sword.
In the wind and rain, the Daoist nun, who was wearing a Daoist robe and had a Saint-like demeanor, revealed a bit of shock and killing intent. Even though she was in danger, Ling Hua still had a calm bearing. She knew that there was no need to waste her breath on these people. In this situation, the only thing she could do was fight.
Liu Yuan, who was below, heard a voice transmission, “Go.”
The three’s primary target was Ling Hua. If Liu Yuan left first, there was a high chance that he could escape. As long as he was alive, there would be hope. Since the Jade Mirage Sect had an internal conflict, they did not have the guts to kill the highly-regarded Ling Hua.
However, since she had sent a voice transmission to Liu Yuan, it meant that she had judged that her chances of winning this battle were slim.
The three elders were not ordinary people. They would not feel guilty or hesitate because of Ling Hua’s words. They immediately flew forward and engaged in a fierce battle with their swords, spells, and spiritual power.
Ling Jie standing at the bow of the ship was also waiting. Knowing that his strength was not enough, he gritted his teeth and ate a Blood-Burning Pill. Although this method will increase his combat power in a short time, it would leave him exhausted. It was good even if it only helped a little.”
In any case, he had already lost his life once before, and it was fellow Daoist Liu Yuan who saved him. This life, he would just take it as paying it back.
Liu Yuan saw this and thought that this person was loyal, but he was only a background character in the game.
‘The sixth direct disciple of the Danqing Palace of the Jade Mirage Sect’ was a passing remark. Usually, he would only appear in the martial arts arena of the Jade Mirage Sect for a short while. He was not as dazzling as Ling Hua, but he had his own personality.
After silently giving Ling Jie a ‘nice guy card’, Liu Yuan circulated the black-and-white yin-yang vortex in his Dantian. The demonic Qi that he had been restraining mixed with his spirit energy and flowed into his limbs and bones.
He had studied the use of demonic Qi on the ship before. It did not increase one’s cultivation level, but it could increase one’s body’s toughness and vitality, which was equivalent to extending one’s health bar.
For example, the Three-headed Heavenly Demon from before. Pang Ying’s body had been transformed by demonic Qi to the point that she no longer resembled a human. She would be fine even if her head was cut in half, and the injuries on her body were even less of a concern. Basically, she would recover immediately after being injured, and her limbs could also regenerate rapidly.
However, even with the support of the cards, Liu Yuan was only at the Void Refinement stage, which was the same level as Ling Jie next to him. If he went up like this, he would be killed.
Ling Jie digested the medicinal power and let out a long breath. He felt as his blood was boiling, and the spiritual energy was flowing everywhere. Before he could start to lament about life and death, he was poked by someone.”
Ling Jie turned around and saw that it was Liu Yuan. The young man’s eyes were very calm as he extended his hand. “Do you still have more pills?”
Ling Jie was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was talking about the Blood-Burning Pill. He shook his head and said, “It’s not easy to make the Blood-Burning Pill, and it’s not used unless it’s a life-and-death situation. Every inner sect disciple is only given one, so they carry it with them in case of emergency.”
He paused and asked, “What are you trying to do…”
Before Ling Jie could finish his sentence, he saw Liu Yuan turn around and reach out his hand to Ling Zhen. He said softly, “Yours should still be there, right? You couldn’t have been so embarrassed that you wanted to commit suicide and eat it, right?”
Hearing his teasing, Ling Zhen’s face was filled with confusion and fear, as if she had yet to react. With teary eyes, she anxiously said, “Eldest Senior Sister, how could Eldest Senior Sister be a traitor? You’re not a demon, the elders must have made a mistake…”
She grabbed Liu Yuan’s sleeve and cried, “H-how could this be?” 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦m
Liu Yuan lowered his head and reached out to wipe the tears from the girl’s face. “You have the merman bloodline in you, so you should be very good in the water. Later on, you will jump down and go against the current to the City of Ten Thousand Swords with Chuichui.”
He pointed at the water. The shadow dragon’s body had disappeared. The red dragon, who had eaten and drunk to her heart’s content, stuck her head out of the water and roared twice. Her body seemed to be burning underwater.
Ling Zhen still wanted to speak, but Liu Yuan said, “Did you see the way your fellow disciples killed each other just now? Although the Spirit Transformation River isn’t too far away from the Jade Mirage Sect, it hasn’t even been half an incense’s time since everything started. The Jade Mirage Sect definitely wouldn’t have sent someone here so quickly, so these three people have been waiting for a long time.”
He was like an actor waiting behind the stage curtain, waiting for the director’s signal and shouting his lines loudly.
Ling Hua became the ‘traitor of the Jade Mirage Sect’, and Liu Yuan directly became the ‘evil creature of the demon race’. He could not even be considered a human anymore.
He had no intention of listening to the explanation.
In that case, he did not bother to hide it anymore. Anyway, if the people of the Jade Mirage Sect wanted to spread rumors, no one would doubt them. Regardless of the outcome of this battle, the news that ‘Jiang Feng of the Singing Sword Ranking is a demon’ would spread throughout the entire Central Plains in a few days.
Ling Zhen, this little girl, still did not understand that this was all a self-directed and self-acted play, an open scheme.
And the director behind the scenes… was probably not from the Jade Mirage Sect.
Liu Yuan patted Ling Zhen’s head, took the Blood-Burning Pill, and swallowed it.
Demonic Qi surged and poured into Evil Heart Sword. The sharp sound of the sword rang out like the shrieking of evil spirits, igniting the violence in his heart.
Perhaps it was the evil sword, or perhaps it was the demonic Qi, or perhaps the combination of the two had affected his mind.
He raised his head, and his eyes revealed an ominous glint.
He flicked his hand. It was the North-bound Sirius’s opening move.
“F*ck off! I was happily going to my wife’s home when these guys suddenly jumped out to block the way! My happy time, my joyful night, all f*cking gone! To hell with it! No matter who it is, I will kill them today!”
