A King Summoner Travels Through the World of Ye Luoli
Chapter 111 Rank Restored and Improved
After checking around, Lu Zhaoran found that there were three other living human statues besides Xingchen and the painter: two men and one woman, including the boy who looked just like Lu An.
"Sister, I feel like this place is strange. Why don't we leave here first? As for my foot, we can get treatment here when we get to a safe place."
Xingchen's unease kept rising, and... she found the unconscious boy in front of her particularly displeasing.
It's obvious when someone cares about you. From the moment he appeared, she could feel that Lu Zhaoran's attention had largely shifted to him. Thinking of this, Xingchen unconsciously clenched her hands.
"The one who tied the knot must untie it, and the one who tied it is right here. How will we know if it will work if we don't try?"
"Shadow Trail!"
Lu Zhaoran suddenly changed the subject, and with the Shadow Sword in hand, he slashed at the back of Xingchen...
As for what lies behind the stars...
"How did you find out?"
"It seems you didn't actually dodge my water arrow. Oh, and one more thing, thank you for the drawing, it's very beautiful, artist."
"His!"
Lu Zhaoran's sword did not pierce his heart directly; instead, it deflected away from his heart and tore his clothes at the shoulder.
After the clothes were torn, a wound was revealed, still stained with the blue magic left by the water arrow.
"Haha, you are the most perfect work of art I have ever seen. A beautiful appearance is a dime a dozen, but an interesting soul is one in a million. The spirit of art is greater than its form."
If only I had met you in my prime, I would have made you a treasure of the world. But alas… you appeared during my decline, and I will only die content if you become my burial offering.
The man in blue covered the wound, and the information revealed in his words made Lu Zhaoran and Xingchen frown.
Lu Zhaoran thought he was a bit neurotic.
She's a human being, not some work of art, so she can't be buried with him. She's not an interesting person either; 250 often complains that she's dull and boring.
Speaking of 250, I haven't seen that cheeky thing in a long time. I really miss it. It seems like it's been so active ever since the Light Dust event.
"Pfft!"
This time, the sword pierced directly into the artist's chest.
He is declining and vulnerable.
Lu Zhaoran also sensed it.
"How do I remove the glassy body from their bodies? Tell me, and I can try my best to make you disappear without pain. If you don't tell me, I will slowly drain your energy and amplify the pain of decay to the maximum."
"Completely disappear? My name is Yue Lin, and my power comes from the moon. How can I disappear if the moon doesn't disappear? Hahahaha."
Do fairies also age?
Xingchen looked at Yuelin in confusion.
In her mind, fairies are supreme deities, possessing great supernatural powers and infinite lifespans.
"People experience joy and sorrow, separation and reunion; the moon waxes and wanes. Nothing is absolute. The moon will also die. Once the energy inside the moon is completely lost, it is as if it is dead. Since its power comes from the moon, it will also face death."
Lu Zhaoran answered Xingchen's question.
"Human, your soul is truly fascinating."
Lu Zhaoran showed no expression after hearing this. In her world, even a ten-year-old child would know these principles. There was one point she did agree with: humans are certainly interesting.
Not only are they interesting in their inventions and creations, but their mental state is also far superior to that of ordinary creatures.
AI is not meant to replace humans, because it is not as neurotic as humans.
"Become my glass doll, become my burial companion, Moonlit."
I know you are no ordinary person. In order to infiltrate this poison into your body, I have meticulously arranged the entire city lord's mansion. Every flower, every blade of grass, every tree and every piece of wood is a poison that I have carefully selected.
I could have slowly boiled you down to nothing in a few months, turning you into my sacrificial lamb, but alas… my decline is accelerating, and I can't wait that long.”
In an instant, a surge of power erupted from Yue Lin's body, transforming into tangible silver threads that seeped into Lu Zhaoran's body along the Shadowless Sword.
"elder sister!"
Upon seeing this, Xingchen became anxious and her mind went blank. She even tried to reach out and peel away the silver threads.
"do not come."
Lu Zhaoran calmed her down, even though... at this moment her hands and feet had turned a glassy color, there was no trace of panic on her face.
"Pfft! What...what did you do?"
Yue Lin suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, and her smile froze on her face.
“I have already discussed this with you. If you do not cooperate, I will slowly drain your energy and amplify the pain of decay to the maximum.”
"I...I...I'll talk!"
"Oh!"
Upon hearing the intermittent sound, Lu Zhaoran drew his Shadow Sword, while Yue Lin collapsed to the ground from exhaustion.
"This is a poison I developed myself, and there is no antidote in the world."
"Are you looking to die?"
As Lu Zhaoran wiped his sword, he casually uttered murderous words.
"No, it was unsolvable before I met you. You can absorb power, and this medicine is ultimately formed from my power. If you want to save her, you can try, but... I don't know what will happen to you if you absorb this poison..."
"Sister, let's get out of here first!"
Xingchen interrupted Yuelin and pulled on Lu Zhaoran's arm, trying to walk out.
"You wait here for me."
"elder sister!"
Lu Zhaoran forcefully pressed her down to sit on the ground, then turned and walked towards the three unconscious living people.
Lu Zhaoran pushed the boy who looked just like Lu An aside, then turned and took the hands of the boy and girl next to her.
Lu Zhaoran was unsure of the consequences of absorbing power from a human body for the first time, or what kind of force to use. If he were to be killed by Xingchen's power, then it would be all over.
These two are perfect for her to use as guinea pigs.
Lu Zhaoran circulated the energy within her body, and the mixed power given to her by various heroes gathered together to form an energy vortex, like an energy black hole, capable of absorbing any power that came near.
Soon, the two people's bodies underwent visible changes. The glassy body on their bodies slowly faded away. Their symptoms were not severe, and they recovered completely in no time.
"I...I'm alive!"
"elder brother……"
The boy was the first to open his eyes, followed by the girl next to him.
Unlike Xingchen, whose body changed after being knocked unconscious, the two of them remained fully conscious, experiencing death with a clear mind. This is cruel for anyone, let alone for someone their age, experiencing death in the prime of their lives.
The two collapsed to the ground after being rescued because they had been in the same position for too long.
"Thank you."
Both of them knew that the person in front of them was the one who had saved them. With tears in their eyes, they looked at Lu Zhaoran and expressed their gratitude to her.
"elder sister!"
Xingchen was extremely anxious as she watched Lu Zhaoran's body grow more and more crystalline.
"Hahaha, you really have a kind heart. It seems you're destined to be my sacrificial offering."
Yue Lin clutched her chest, a hint of smugness emanating from her weak laughter.
"Boom! Boom!"
Enraged, Xingchen kicked him several times with her other, undamaged leg.
"don’t worry."
Lu Zhaoran remained completely calm. If the poison were outside her body, her current healing abilities would be quite difficult to deal with. She had been focused on practicing spells to kill people and hadn't spent much time researching how to save them. But since the poison was inside her body, it was simple. With Cai Wenji and Bian Que around, the poison entering her body was like a lamb entering a tiger's den.
With just a slight activation of his healing abilities, Lu Zhaoran recovered without Bian Que needing to prepare an antidote.
"no no……"
Upon seeing this scene, Yue Lin's eyes instantly filled with bloodshot veins, and she glared hatefully at Lu Zhaoran with her bloodshot eyes.
"Stop barking."
Seeing that Lu Zhaoran was alright, Xingchen was so happy that she kicked Yuelin a few more times.
Lu Zhaoran walked up to Xingchen, squatted down, and placed his hand on Xingchen's ankle. Xingchen recovered quickly.
"Your method is quite good. As agreed, I will give you a quick death so that you can be completely free."
"Complete liberation..."
Yue Lin didn't believe her. How could anyone really make a fairy disappear completely?
"Give me your hand."
Lu Zhaoran extended his hand to him, and Yue Lin hesitated for a moment before finally placing his hand on hers.
"what!"
"Thanks……"
In an instant, Lu Zhaoran's body burst into silver light, while Yue Lin let out a scream, smiled with relief, and her body turned into specks of starlight before dissipating.
Meanwhile, Lu Zhaoran continued to digest this massive amount of energy.
"elder sister……"
Seeing Lu Zhaoran covered in cold sweat, Xingchen felt a little worried.
"I'm fine..."
She's really fine; she just ate too much at once and is feeling a bit bloated, so she's having trouble digesting it yet.
Lu Zhaoran sighed again, no wonder evil cultivators are hated by everyone in cultivation novels, yet countless people still become evil cultivators. This feeling is just too great.
This not only restored her to her peak condition, but also directly boosted her five stars.
After the Light Dust event ended, her rank was raised to Glory, and now she has been restored to Glory with an additional five stars.
This improvement is far greater than what you get from completing the level 250 dungeon.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
"Sister! This place is collapsing!"
Shortly after Yue Lin's disappearance, the entire underground palace—no, to be precise, the entire floating island—began to tremble violently, as if the end of the world had arrived. Huge cracks appeared in the ground, and countless boulders and architectural fragments fell, creating a terrifying collapse. Dust billowed, obscuring the sky and making it impossible to see anything around them. This once magnificent floating island was now slowly crumbling.
"Take them and leave first."
Xingchen obediently helped the two people on the ground up, then looked at Lu Zhaoran with an urgent desire for her to leave together, but a heartbreaking scene unfolded.
At that moment, Lu Zhaoran actually turned around and grabbed another boy who was still alive.
Lu Zhaoran thought of moving him to a safe place first before rescuing him, but she suddenly realized that he couldn't be moved at all. Not only him, Lu Zhaoran also tried to move the glass figure next to her, but the result was the same. The glass figure, which could move freely before, was now like it was rooted to the spot and could not be moved at all.
"Sister, go quickly!"
"Xingchen, you go first and wait for me in a safe place."
"I'm not leaving! I absolutely won't leave unless you leave!"
Xingchen knew from her words that she wanted to stay here to save people first. She had seen that these glass figures could not be moved at all. To save the boy, the poison had to be removed first, but doing so would be gambling with his life.
Who exactly is that "old friend"? Why is he so important that the sister would risk her life to save someone who looks similar?
She wouldn't leave; she wanted to be willful just this once. Those who are favored are always fearless. She wanted to force Lu Zhaoran to make a choice, to decide between her and that person.
"Chenghuang! Take them away!"
Upon seeing this, Lu Zhaoran immediately summoned Linlang's spirit beast, Chenghuang, and ordered it to take the three of them away from here.
After receiving the order, Chenghuang rushed towards Xingchen and the other two. It crouched down and gestured for them to come up.
Xingchen tossed the two people onto Chenghuang's back, intending to find Lu Zhaoran herself. Upon seeing this, Chenghuang grabbed her with its mouth and forcibly carried her away.
The Summoner's command is supreme!
"let me go!"
Xingchen tried to flutter down, but how could a novice who had only recently begun cultivating possibly resist Lu Zhaoran's spirit beast, who was at the 55-star level?
Starry Sky glared furiously at the collapsed floating island. A stone pillar fell down, completely obscuring Lu Zhaoran's figure.
Who is he?
Xingchen's hands were clenched so tightly that one of her nails dug into her flesh and bled, but she seemed to feel no pain at the moment. Her eyes were fixed on a certain spot, her pain and jealousy intertwined.
