The Road to Godhood in Honor of Kings

Chapter 125 Cold-Dyed City

"Wow, I never thought we'd be becoming professional players so soon," Han Cheng said.

"What's the big deal? It's only a matter of time. Haven't you always dreamed of becoming an esports player? Now you can realize your dream. Let's win another championship together!" Xu Xiaomeng laughed.

"Yes, definitely." Han Cheng couldn't help but feel a little moved. He remembered that he had once confided his e-sports dream to Xu Xiaomeng, and he didn't expect that she still remembered it. For Han Cheng, what he longed for most was not the title and prize money, but the honor, the honor that came from his own hard work!

"Um, let me call Brother Ma and ask where he is!" Han Cheng said, taking out his phone and dialing the number saved as "Brother Ma".

"Kid, what's up? Need something from me?" Sima Yi's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Well, we've already discussed it. The team name can be changed, and we've agreed to join your club," Han Cheng said.

“Okay, I’ll send you an address later. We’ll have everyone go there tomorrow to sign a contract. By the way, about Qin Li…” Sima Yi asked.

"You mean Qin Li? Ye Bing said he'll be going too," Han Cheng said.

"Okay, okay, we'll talk tomorrow. I'm busy with club matters right now..." Sima Yi hung up the phone before Han Cheng could say anything.

"He hung up on me again before I could finish speaking..." Han Cheng said helplessly.

"Is it settled? Did he say he'd talk about it tomorrow?" Xu Xiaomeng asked.

"Okay, tell us to go to this address tomorrow..." Han Cheng received a text message from Sima Yi, which was the club's address.

"In the suburbs? Hmm, not bad, the environment there is quite nice," Xu Xiaomeng said.

"I think it's because the place is cheaper there..." Han Cheng muttered to himself.

"Where do we go now?" Xu Xiaomeng asked Han Cheng.

"Is that even a question? Of course, we're going home."

"Why are you home so early?" Xu Xiaomeng asked, looking displeased. "All you ever do is stay home..."

"Where to then?" Han Cheng looked at Xu Xiaomeng helplessly. She just loved to cause trouble. What's wrong with going home and playing King of Glory for a while?

"Come on, I'll take you there..." Xu Xiaomeng said, reaching for Han Cheng's hand again. This time, Han Cheng wouldn't let her. Xu Xiaomeng looked at Han Cheng awkwardly, then sternly said, "Follow me!"

"You...are you playing games? Follow me..." Han Cheng thought to himself, but he dared not speak out and succumbed to Xu Xiaomeng's tyranny.

Pinghu Park.

"Didn't I used to come here often? What's so great about this place..." Han Cheng muttered to himself.

“Look at the lake, it’s all frozen over, and there are quite a few people skating on it!” Xu Xiaomeng said.

"Do you want to go ice skating? No way, it's too dangerous!" Han Cheng glanced at the ice and felt that it might suddenly crack open and someone on it would fall in.

"What's wrong with that? Why are you such a coward? You might be cautious when playing video games, but why are you being such a coward when skating?" Xu Xiaomeng said, and was about to rush forward.

"No..." Han Cheng was about to grab Xu Xiaomeng's clothes when he heard the ice surface not far away suddenly crack open with a "whoosh," and a woman skating fell into it. Her boyfriend saw this and wanted to pull the woman out, but unfortunately the ice hole was very large and the lake water was quite deep. There was no other way but to go in and rescue her.

"I told you not to go, look..." Han Cheng said as he took off his coat, preparing to go down to rescue the people.

"What are you going to do? You can swim? You'd better not go..." Xu Xiaomeng's tone was already pleading.

"If I don't go to hell, who will?" Han Cheng was now down to his pants, and taking them off in front of so many people was indeed a bit embarrassing...

However, before Han Cheng could finish undressing, there was a "splash" sound, and someone had jumped into the water before Han Cheng.

"Alright, Xiao Chengzi, someone's gone to rescue her..." Xu Xiaomeng quickly grabbed Han Cheng. Han Cheng saw that the person who went into the water was very fast and quickly grabbed the woman who had fallen into the water. The lake water was very cold in winter, and it would take a lot of physical exertion to get in there. If it were an ordinary person, they would be out of breath in a very short time, and might not even be able to get out. But this person pulled the woman out of the water very quickly, and seemed to be as if nothing had happened.

"That guy is amazing!" Xu Xiaomeng exclaimed.

"Tch, if you hadn't held me back, I would have gone down and rescued him long ago," Han Cheng said.

"What are you saying? I'm only doing this for your own good. Do you think I want to lose you?" Xu Xiaomeng's emotions also became a little agitated.

"I know, I know, I was just saying it casually..." Han Cheng sighed helplessly, only managing a brief complaint. But it seemed Xu Xiaomeng still cared about him, which made him happy...

“Let’s go see them…” Xu Xiaomeng said.

"Ah."

Han Cheng hadn’t paid attention to the man’s face at first, but when he got closer, he realized that the man was also handsome, and he seemed to have a sense of déjà vu.

"This is... an energy fluctuation?" Han Cheng clearly sensed the energy fluctuation of the person in front of him, which was the same as when he first met Sima Yu, and this time the energy fluctuation seemed to be much stronger than last time...

"Could he be a master? Does he have powerful superpowers?" Han Cheng looked at the man, whose face was pale. Yes, pale, giving off a cold feeling. The man also looked at Han Cheng, with a slight smile on his lips.

Just as the man was about to say something to Han Cheng, the woman's boyfriend, after reviving her, couldn't wait to thank the man. Fortunately, the woman was not seriously injured; she drank some water and soon woke up, and she and her boyfriend also thanked the man.

"No need, just be more careful next time," the man said. Han Cheng sensed the coldness in his voice; it seemed even more aloof than Qin Li's.

"Then we'll thank you without further ado, and see you again someday!" The woman's boyfriend then helped her leave, and the crowd that had gathered to take pictures and watch began to disperse.

The man walked towards Han Cheng, and Han Cheng inexplicably went to meet him.

"What, Xiao Chengzi, do you two know each other?" Xu Xiaomeng asked Han Cheng in confusion.

"It looks familiar," Han Cheng said as he walked.

"Hmph, if I'm not mistaken, you must be Han Cheng, right?" the man said coldly. However, Han Cheng didn't sense the contempt in his words and seemed to have no hostility.

"Who are you?" Han Cheng asked, puzzled. How did this person know his name?

“Leng Rancheng, you probably don’t know me, but you should know Sima Yu,” the man said.

"Are you her master?" Han Cheng realized. Could this person be the mysterious person who guided Sima Yu to learn supernatural abilities and find him?

"Master? Not really." The man even revealed a slight smile.

"But that's what she calls you..." Han Cheng sighed helplessly. Could it be that Sima Yu hadn't formally become this man's disciple yet?

"She actually called me that? Well, I didn't expect to run into you here today. So let me tell you about your special ability." Leng Rancheng said, glancing at Xu Xiaomeng behind Han Cheng, somewhat hesitant.

"Um, Meng, we ran into someone we know, so we thought we'd find a place to talk first..." Han Cheng hesitated as he looked at Xu Xiaomeng.

“Okay, how long do you want to talk?” Xu Xiaomeng said. “I’ll find a place to wait for you.”

"It won't be long," the man said, then looked at Han Cheng, "Your girlfriend?"

"No, add 'sex,' female friend," Han Cheng said.

“Alright, let’s get back to the point. We ability users are all born with special abilities, and we also have the ability to communicate with the Mirror World. When our abilities are randomly activated, we gain the ability to enter the Mirror World and cultivate within it. However, Xiaoyu should have already told you that to cultivate, you must first activate the body parts strengthened by your ability,” the man said.

"I just want to know how to activate it!" This was the question Han Cheng most wanted to know. He never expected to run into Sima Yu's master by such a coincidence, haha...

"Don't interrupt me," the man said.

"Oh."

“Actually, before activation, ordinary meditation and contemplation are useful for cultivation and can improve your ability level, although it is only slower compared to after activation,” Leng Rancheng said. “The so-called ability level is our cultivation level, similar to that in fantasy novels, but this is real. When your ability level reaches a certain level, your ability will reach its peak.”
