Chapter 222: Breaking-off Other People’s Cultivation Is a Huge Feud!
Qing Ming City.
Card Creators Association.
Zhang Yang was leading quite a good life. Due to the series of events at Qing Ming City, his branch received the highest level of attention and also more funds then before...
With this...
Zhang Yang was very satisfied.
He was very sure that Lu Ming was the one who resolved many things.
Well...
Speaking of Lu Ming, he thought of that Sword Card Master association which was established in an ad-hoc manner. Right from the beginning, it was an association with only two people doing their own thing.
“I’ll find a chance to close down that association.”
Zhang Yang stretched himself.
Anyway, this association was not meant to be serious...
However, when he opened the webpage of the Sword Card Master association, he was totally dumbfounded. This was because the page stated that four people were in the association!
Wait a minute...
Four?
Why did it become four?
He clicked on it and was dumbstruck.
Second senior brother, Salted Crispy Chicken?
Eh?
Who was this?
Third senior brother...
Crap!
Li Haoran?!
Zhang Yang’s eyes widened instantly.
Alright.
He did not see it wrong!
He rubbed his eyes carefully. Li Haoran, those two words, were that eye-catching. Especially when he saw that Li Haoran’s vocation had already become four-star Sword Card Master, he instantly gasped.
Lu Ming...
Lu Ming even conned Li Haoran!
“Isn’t that too vicious?”
Zhang Yang felt somewhat guilty.
Although Li Haoran was the one who came knocking on the doors for a challenge and even got someone to beat him up, they did not have that deep a feud. However, now...
Lu Ming actually fooled him into being a Sword Card Master?
To hell with it!
There was no such vocation?!
Breaking-off other people’s cultivation was a huge offense!
If Li Haoran were to come to his senses, he might kill Li Haoran?!
What to do?
Zhang Yang remembered that Li Haoran was a super genius, especially in the area of card creation. His talent was shocking. Such a child had been foolishly deceived by Lu Ming...
This would not do.
He had to ask Li Haoran.
Hence...
He personally clicked on Li Haoran and inquired about the Sword Card Master matter. Li Haoran also replied to him politely until Zhang Yang said something about Sword Card Master.
“I’m the one who suggested the designation ‘Sword Card Master’.”
Zhang Yang sighed. “Lu Ming is messing around. Nevertheless, he doesn’t have bad intentions. Please don’t take it to heart.”
Li Haoran’s expression changed drastically. “I respect you as my senior but I didn’t expect you to be that hungry for credit. What did the rise of the Sword Card Master have to do with you?”
Humph!
That’s ludicrous!
This is a new vocation painstakingly established by master!
Senior sister has been studying it conscientiously every day!
How can you take away all their credit with just a few words?
Branch presidents like you guys... are too bureaucratic!
I’ve seen enough of this in Chong Yang City.
Humph!
Just wait and see. Sooner or later, I will apply for the independence of the Sword Card Master. When that time comes, your Card Creator will become one of the vocations under Sword Card Master!”
Bam!
Li Haoran simply hung up the phone.
Breaking-off one’s cultivation was a huge deal. Zhang Yang actually wanted to break-off his cultivation path. That was too detestable!
Huh?
Zhang Yang wore a confused expression.
W-what was happening?
He merely wanted to show Li Haoran some concern as he did not want talent to be wasted. When he mentioned the Sword Card Master, he was trying to help Lu Ming bear some responsibility.
Who would have known that it would turn out like that?
What the hell was this?
Hungry for credit?
Did the Sword Card Master have any contribution?
He specially browsed through the information of the Sword Card Master.
Well...
The Sword Card Master’s guidelines were actually at its sixth stage now. However, when he briefly read them, they were all about card spirit and so on. He could tell that all this was nonsense...
There were even untold stories of Sword Card Master.
Although these were facts, weren’t all these, in essence, trump cards left behind by Lu Yan?
Furthermore, those cultivation diaries...
Who were you trying to fool?!
It was done for!
This child was really foolish...
And the Sword Card Master association...
Why did he have a feeling it was a pyramid scheme?!
Did they say that middle-aged folks like him would be easily deceived? Why did he feel that the pyramid scheme had already infiltrated the professions of youngsters?
That was not right.
He only heard more and more youngsters losing their hair but did not hear more and more youngsters doing pyramid schemes...
Furthermore...
The leader of this pyramid scheme was Lu Ming!
Zhang Yang’s head was hurting.
It was true.
Glancing at the content of the Sword Card Master guidelines, he could only sigh deeply. If he had not been that experienced, he might have really believed in them! People did it willingly and he did not have a way to convince them otherwise. He could only pray that these children would soon realize that this was a path that would lead them to nowhere...
Sigh.
Youngsters nowadays were really not as good as before...
...
At this very moment...
At the shop.
Lu Ming felt very satisfied.
The materialization of the Original Card had been completed. This meant that, henceforth, he could have a four-star Burial Mound Card as his trump card at any point in time. Hahaha. His combat ability had increased exponentially!
As to the five-star Moonlight Card and five-star Cloud Shuttle Card...
Forget it.
He decided that it would be a waste to seal them in the Original Card.
Hehe.
A four-star Burial Mound Card almost drained all of Lu Ming’s energy. It even needed the support of four-star Energy Cards. If it was five-star, hahaha...
Who the hell knew if it would be enough!
Therefore...
Five-star and all that...
He would give up on them for the time being!
He was not the man with ‘top-notch resources’ anymore. He had to be low-key.
Well...
The next step... was to attain a breakthrough!
He had already completed one of the two stages of the four-star breakthrough. The other stage was to break through formally by improving the energy quality of three-star peak to four-star beginner!
Lu Ming had long planned for this.
“Principal.”
Lu Ming called Jiang Feng,
“Are you ready?”
Jiang Feng’s voice was deep.
“Yes.”
Lu Ming’s expression was solemn.
“Very good. Let’s meet at the school at midnight today,” Jiang Feng said in a low voice.
“The school?”
Lu Ming’s heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that...
The huge chance encounter mentioned by Jiang Feng was actually in the school?
In that case, he would have the opportunity to witness the so-called secret in the school on this occasion?! At the thought of this, Lu Ming felt inexplicably thrilled.
“Yes,” Jiang Feng confirmed.
“How’s your recovery going?” Lu Ming asked.
“Ninety percent.”
Jiang Feng’s expression was calm. “Although I can’t unleash all my powers, it should not be a problem.”
“Understood.”
Lu Ming felt at ease then.
Jiang Feng’s ability...
Well...
Judging from the situation of him massacring others in seconds, he should be quite powerful. Furthermore, they would be in the school and those killers would not be able to follow them inside.
This trip should be safe.
...
During the day.
Lu Ming had been making preparations.
“Is master going on an expedition?”
Xiaobai was worried.
“Yes.”
Lu Ming nodded slightly. “I don’t know when I will be back but there shouldn’t be any problems.”
“Well...”
Xiaobai helped Lu Ming to prepare the stuff.
There were some compressed videos and various kinds of Energy Cards. She tucked all of them into Lu Ming’s bag.
“You have to be good.”
Xiaobai reminded the Original Card. “Protect master. Otherwise, I’ll beat you when you come back.”
The Original Card was silent.
It was only an Original Card, okay?
“Pay attention to safety.”
Xiaobai hugged Lu Ming.
“Don’t worry.
Lu Ming smiled faintly. “When did anything ever happen to me?”
“True.”
Xiaobai rubbed her feet.
She believed that master would definitely be alright.
At this very moment...
Somewhere.
Jiang Feng was alone at home and preparing for the operation at night.
Outside the window.
The leaves drifted.
After staring in the space for a long time, Jiang Feng then sighed. Xiaobai was still too young. If she was slightly older, most probably she would help him to pack his things.
...
At night.
Midnight.
Two figures met each other at the entrance of the school.
“Let’s go.”
“Okay.”
Jiang Feng led Lu Ming into the school field.
However...
Just as they arrived at the school field, Jiang Feng saw that the original field had already become a campus lake. He did not come to his senses after a long time. Where did the lake come from?
Lu Ming briefly explained to him.
“Oh.”
Jiang Feng understood then.
“It’s okay.”
Jiang Feng was grateful. “You’ve done quite well.”
He could not deny that Lu Ming this child had great potential...
Well...
They would go in first.
Hence...
His gaze swept across the surroundings.
Across...
Across again...
After a long time...
His expression was dazed.
“What’s the matter?”
Lu Ming acutely sensed that something was not right. Were Old Jiang’s brains leaking due to his severe injuries?!
“Lu Ming,” Jiang Feng said in a low voice, “Look carefully. Why does it seem that a building is missing?”
“Oh, that.”
Lu Ming came to his senses. “It has been trampled flat.”
Jiang Feng looked dumbstruck.
So, you didn’t even let the school building flat?!
“It did not pass the inspection.”
Lu Ming’s expression dimmed.
Jiang Feng could not come to his senses after a long time. He then spoke, “But... the secret is inside there...”
Lu Ming was stunned.
Oh.
It turned out that the school’s secret was inside that abandoned office building?
Oh.
That office building had also been trampled flat.
What was the secret?
It should have turned into ruins by now...
Even if that did not happen, most probably not much of it was left after immersing in the campus lake...
Shush!
The two glanced at and faced each other.
The atmosphere... was filled with awkwardness.
“What do we do now?”
Lu Ming coughed. “Why don’t you swim inside and take a look?”
Jiang Feng fell silent for a moment. “I don’t know how to swim.”
“What a coincidence.
Me too.”
Lu Ming felt somewhat embarrassed.
Shush!
The two of them fell silent again.
“I don’t think it will spoil.”
Lu Ming could only inquire as he did not know what was inside.
“Of course not.
Jiang Feng sighed. “But we need to go in.”
“Oh.
It seems that we can only extract all the water...”
Lu Ming was full of regrets.
“Okay,” Jiang Feng agreed.
Hence...
After a discussion, the duo decided to get the students and teachers to work hard to extract all the water from the campus lake tomorrow. They then returned to their respective homes.
“Huh? Master?”
Dazed, Xiaobai walked out with sleepy eyes. “You’re done with your things?”
Cough, cough.
Lu Ming smiled faintly. “The timing has been changed. I’ll go tomorrow.”
“Oh.”
Xiaobai was happy. “It’s very late. Master, sleep early.”
Upon finishing her words...
She fell asleep on Lu Ming.
“This girl...”
Lu Ming was between laughter and tears.
After carrying Xiaobai to bed, Lu Ming then went to sleep.
Well...
He hoped that tomorrow would be a smooth day.
Old Jiang was really getting more and more unreliable...
The next day.
On the pretext of ‘changing water for refurbishment’, the school got the students and teachers to extract the lake water. In one day, the campus lake was already dry and clean. There was not any single drop of water in it.
It was very late at night.
Lu Ming and Jiang Feng appeared again.
“Let’s go.”
“Okay.”
Two figures stepped into the bottom of the lake and walked to the original spot of the office building.
“It should be here.”
Jiang Feng pondered for a moment.
Hence...
He calmed his senses and began to feel the area.
Sensing.
Sensing.
...
After a long time...
Jiang Feng’s eyes were extremely dazed.
“What’s the matter?”
Lu Ming gave a deep sigh.
Jiang Feng pondered deeply for a moment before sighing. “I can’t find the entrance.”
Lu Ming was speechless.
Brother, are you okay or not?
Jiang Feng felt very helpless too.
The initial plan was to bring Lu Ming to the office building to sense that hidden entrance and activate it. Who the hell knew that this place had actually been trampled flat and became a lake...
He actually did not know where the entrance was now!
In his impression...
The last time that he could not find the entrance was when he first slept with a woman...
After a long time...
Lu Ming spoke, “What should we do?”
“I’ll go and look for tools.”
Jiang Feng pondered deeply for a moment. “I’ll bring the equipment tomorrow and we’ll re-inspect the place.”
“Are you sure there won’t be a problem this time?”
Lu Ming cast a doubtful glance at him.
“There won’t be a problem.”
Jiang Feng was certain.
“Okay.”
Lu Ming could only agree.
Hence...
The two returned to their respective homes again.
...
“Master?”
Looking puzzled, Xiaobai glanced at Lu Ming who returned home.
Eh?
Didn’t he say that he was going on an expedition?
Cough, cough.
“Something happened. I’ll go tomorrow instead,” Lu Ming explained.
“Is that so?”
Xiaobai nodded in a daze. However, very soon, she felt that something was not quite right. Master had been out at night twice in a row and each time it would be for half an hour...
During this period...
Wait a minute.
She recalled that master had just interacted with that fatty not long ago...
Could it be that...
Xiaobai was suddenly startled awake.
Master had been led astray by that fatty again?!
Half an hour...
After deducting the traveling time...
“What’s on your mind?”
Lu Ming snapped her head with his fingers. This girl. Although she was smart, messy thoughts would occasionally go to her mind.
“N-nothing.”
Xiaobai sounded a little embarrassed.
“I was out with your dad.”
Lu Ming was between laughter and tears.
Huh?!
Xiaobai felt even more worried. “D-don’t go out with my dad alone...”
“Why?”
Lu Ming was surprised.
“Dad will lead you astray.”
Xiaobai wrinkled her nose.
Lu Ming was speechless.
They were definitely related!
However, at this time, he recalled Zhang Xiaopang’s words. The latter’s idol was Jiang Feng! In that case, when Jiang Feng was young...
Tsk tsk.
It was no wonder that Xiaobai was worried!
“Don’t worry.
Lu Ming smiled gently. He rubbed Xiaobai’s head. “I know what to do.”
“Yes.”
Xiaobai felt assured then. “I trust master!”
After a long time...
This girl fell into a deep slumber again. Lu Ming carried her to bed.
...
The next day.
It was very late at night.
Lu Ming and Jiang Feng gathered again.
“Are you really okay this time?”
Lu Ming sighed.
“Don’t worry.
Jiang Feng brought large bags of stuff today. There were a heap of testing tools and equipment. He scanned the original spot of the office building for a moment and found the entrance.
Somewhere.
Faint fluorescent lights were shining.
“It’s here.”
Jiang Feng was elated.
He infused his energy.
Buzz—
An array suspended in the air.
A void appeared. It was actually an array restriction.
“Open!” Jiang Feng yelled softly.
Buzz—
A gush of energy surrounded the place and the array was gradually activated. A tunnel leading to the depths of the underground appeared at this corner of the field.
“Let’s go!”
Jiang Feng led Lu Ming into it.
The two of them stepped into the pit. The scenery before them suddenly changed.
Shush!
Lights flashed.
What appeared before them was actually a bottomless staircase. There was even a stele in front of the staircase, and on it were a few words that were almost unrecognizable —
The tomb of ***!
