UGB Chapter 67 Mutual Destruction
Chapter 67 Mutual Destruction
When he raised his head again, Jia Chunqiu's face was full of fervor.
Where is your mother?
Lu Yuan smiled slightly.
Suddenly I noticed Lele.
During the fight, it was frightened and disappeared somewhere.
At that moment, Lele suddenly appeared silently behind Jia Chunqiu.
A few steps away from him, in the shadows.
Its belly was pressed against the ground, and its front paws were slightly extended forward.
It remained completely still, except for the tip of its tail which twitched slightly.
It adopted a hunting posture.
His gaze darted back and forth between Lu Yuan and Jia Chunqiu.
It was as if they were asking Lu Yuan, "How about it, are you going to go or not?"
If you agree, I'll go for it!
Lu Yuan understood what Lele meant.
He knew that Lele was definitely not an ordinary dog.
I have a feeling that this little thing contains a power that I haven't yet figured out.
Right now, if Lele can delay Jia Chunqiu even for a moment, it will create an opportunity for him.
"You want to see her?" Lu Yuan said. "I'll take you to see her right away."
"Lele, do it!"
Before Jia Chunqiu could react to these words, Jia Chunqiu was already taken aback.
He suddenly lowered his head.
A fluffy red figure darted out from the shadows of the building.
It moved so fast that it left a fiery red afterimage in the moonlight.
Upon closer inspection, it was a small dog.
He didn't have time to dodge.
They didn't bother to hide from it.
He didn't believe that a tiny beast the size of a palm could bite through the protective aura of a cultivator at the Acquired Realm.
Those round, bright eyes were looking at him innocently.
Then open your mouth.
She bit his calf.
The protective aura was utterly ineffective against those closely packed teeth.
He didn't even feel any pain when the dog's sharp teeth pierced his flesh.
I only felt an extremely absurd sense of unreality.
"How...how could this be?"
"You beast, you deserve to die!"
Jia Chunqiu kicked Lele after being bitten by her.
The internal energy of the Acquired Realm instantly surged into the toes.
Even if you kicked a steel plate, that kick would still leave a dent.
But just as his toes touched the dog's body...
The tiny ball of fur suddenly swelled up.
A scorching wave of heat exploded from Lele's body, burning the kick and the entire pant leg to ashes.
A phantom of a Qilin, taller than a person, stepped out from the shockwave.
He raised his head and let out a deafening roar.
That was the roar that belonged exclusively to the Qilin.
Then, the phantom lowered its head and bit down on the groin of his same leg.
"Weren't the Qilin extinct? How can there be a Qilin here!" Jia Chunqiu exclaimed.
He couldn't believe what he was seeing.
Lu Yuan did not answer.
At this moment, his right index finger was already raised.
The moment Lele bit Jia Chunqiu, he had already gathered his strength.
The internal force compressed at the fingertips even glowed faintly under the moonlight.
A tiny speck of light, no bigger than a pinhead, contained every last trace of internal energy remaining in his dantian.
He took a deep breath and suppressed the light spot to its maximum.
Then it was launched towards Jia Chunqiu, who was being entangled by the phantom of the Qilin.
"Go to hell."
The "[Strike with All Your Might]" entry is activated immediately.
The compressed internal force, instantly amplified upon leaving the fingertips, was further enhanced by the "forceful strike."
That force was compressed within a small space, and finally exploded the moment it touched Jia Chunqiu's body.
A visible wave of scorching heat rose suddenly from the end of the alley, shattering the remaining low walls around it.
Gravel and broken bricks rained down on the ground.
Flames shot into the sky, turning the entire night sky of Wuyun County a crimson red.
Two streets away.
Old Huang, who was about to return to the inn, noticed the towering light.
"Young Master Yuan!"
They immediately ran towards the light.
......
Time passed, I don't know how much.
Lu Yuan was awakened by being licked.
A warm tongue was licking his cheek from his chin down to the bridge of his nose.
It carried a faint fishy smell and a certain indescribable warmth.
He opened his eyes, and Lele's furry face was right in front of his nose, its two round eyes blinking, and its tail wagging on the edge of the bed, casting a blurry shadow.
"Alright, alright."
Lu Yuan pushed the dog's face away and sat up, supporting himself on the bed.
The sky outside the window was bright, and it was past noon.
He looked down at himself.
I discovered that the injury caused by the One-Finger Divine Skill last night has almost completely healed.
The lingering burning pain in my meridians has subsided considerably.
Several entries on the panel were glowing faintly. The recovery power of the [Qilin Arm] had been running automatically all night while I was asleep, and the external injury was almost completely repaired.
He tried to take a breath.
The internal energy lake in his dantian was mostly replenished again.
The Seven Star Technique's circulation path automatically unfolded in his meridians, so smoothly that it surprised him.
He could sense that the threshold of the later stage of blood clotting was right there.
It's truly within reach.
Just as he was about to charge forward in one go, a familiar feeling of powerlessness surged up from the depths of his dantian.
"Damn, I forgot about that."
The feeling of exhaustion washed over his entire body like a tide, pushing his newly accumulated internal energy back inch by inch into the depths of his dantian.
Only a thin layer of qi remained, barely enough to maintain the circulation of the meridians.
Lu Yuan leaned against the headboard, staring blankly at the countdown on the panel.
【A Fierce Strike】: Negative effect remaining time: 1 day and 3 hours.
After the last entry upgrade, the duration of the negative effect was changed to two days.
"Looks like I'll be a couch potato for a while longer!"
Just as Lu Yuan was sighing, the door was pushed open.
Old Huang walked in carrying a steaming copper basin.
A freshly soaked towel was draped over the basin.
"Old Huang, what happened last night? How did I get back? Where is that person from Tianji Pavilion?"
Upon hearing the words "Tianji Pavilion,"
Old Huang's eyebrows twitched slightly.
He wrung out the towel in the basin and handed it to Lu Yuan, then sat down on the low stool by the bed.
He recounted, "When I arrived at the alley last night, I found you unconscious in the pile of broken bricks, while another person was lying at the other end of the alley with all four limbs broken, his dantian shattered, and he was only exhaling and not inhaling."
"Seeing that he was still alive, the old servant stabbed him again and dragged the body deep into the alley, burying it in the pile of broken bricks."
"Then I carried you back to the inn."
Lu Yuan wiped his face with a hot towel.
The warm, humid air steamed on his face. He remained silent for a moment, then asked the question that had been stuck in his throat since he woke up.
"Old Huang, that guy from the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion said he's been looking for 'the person we're looking for.' He said I possess the bloodline of the Qilin, know the complete Six Meridians Divine Sword, and can use the Lingbo Steps—that's the person they're looking for."
"What is he looking for? Why am I the person they're looking for?"
Old Huang remained silent for a long time.
A few rays of afternoon sunlight peeked through the window cracks and fell on his wrinkled face.
Then he spoke.
"Young Master, I originally intended to tell you about this after your cultivation reached the Returning Origin Realm. But now..."
He raised his eyes and looked at Lu Yuan.
"It seems we can't hide it any longer. Young Master Yuan, your mother is the former head of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan's towel froze in mid-air.
