Chapter 364: 364, [Spring breeze turns the south bank of the river green again]
Seeing that the child of [Luck 10] was still refining the pearl, Lu Xun and the others, led by Mo Yurou, found a quiet place to rest a bit.
Cai Jiangjiang and the rest sat down at the back, surprisingly beginning to meditate.
Lu Xun glanced at them, understanding completely, “These guys aren’t meditating, they’re just pretending. Probably posting on the forum and showing off!”
Indeed, as soon as he opened the forum, he saw the posts made by the sword-serving children.
Some were boasting about traveling with the Purple Palace, some were boasting about killing several foreign race members, some were posting handsome pictures of the Purple Palace…
Apart from Han Bagui, the remaining five players had all posted, and the angles and entry points of their boasting were all different, with no overlap.
They probably discussed it before posting in order to avoid everyone boasting in almost the same way.
This was the pure joy of these silly players.
They probably couldn’t dream that Lu Xun saw all of their actions.
As for this, Lu Xun didn’t really have any thoughts. Putting himself in their shoes, if he were still a player, he’d probably be able to boast even better.
After closing the forum, Lu Xun was about to sit down and rest for a while, when he heard a roar.
It was the roar of a human being at the top of their lungs.
Immediately after, he saw Mo Yurou flying towards the Warm Lake, her face a bit serious, a bit anxious.
“Something happen?” Lu Xun wrinkled his brow, a little surprised.
What surprised him even more was, before long, a prompt appeared in front of him.
“[Ding! You have triggered a task: Demon Repel.]”
After checking the task details, he immediately stood up, his hand holding his sword sheath, and rushed towards the Warm Lake.
“Did Jiang Nan’an actually enter a state of demonization while he was refining the bead?” He was a little puzzled.
The task he received was to assist Mo Yurou in pulling Jiang Nan’an out of the demonized state.
The task reward was 100,000 experience points, as well as the elusive [Friendship from Jiang Nan’an].
“This doesn’t make sense. After all, he is the legendary [Luck 10], how could he enter a demonized state just by refining a Warm Jade Pearl?” Lu Xun found it a bit incredible.
However, when he thought about how Jiang Nan’an seemed to be mediocre in all aspects except for his extraordinarily good luck, he understood.
What’s more… who knows if this demonization will become his chance to break through again?
Turning danger into an opportunity was his life’s normal state, who knows if it could become a good fortune!
Child of Luck, do you think it’s a joke?
With this mentality, Lu Xun arrived beside the Warm Lake.
He silently took out the green pearl and extracted strands of green energy from it, wrapped it with spiritual energy, and then hid it in his sleeves.
Then put the green pearl back into the sword sheath, hiding it thoroughly.
According to the task prompt, the green pearl seemed to have a certain degree of demon repelling and calming effect.
This made Lu Xun feel pleased.
He originally thought he could only be a dad with a huge amount of healing power, but he never expected that he could expand his services.
Healing the body, warming the heart, this service was too considerate.
By the Warm Lake, Jiang Nan’an, who was in a state of demonization, was fighting with Mo Yurou.
Lu Xun looked from afar, feeling that Mo Yurou, this beautiful and voluptuous young woman, looked really pleasing to the eye when she took action with grace.
As for Jiang Nan’an, he was just an ordinary-looking young man, the kind that you couldn’t find once you threw him in a crowd, with an absolutely ordinary ugliness.
——Typically an ordinary-passersby face.
Lu Xun came up to them and said, “Master Mo, the gentleman has passed down to me a secret technique for demon-repelling and calming, I wonder if Master Mo trusts me enough to let me try it?”
To complete the task, Lu Xun decisively brought up the gentleman.
Upon hearing this, Mo Yurou immediately let out a sigh of relief.
She could distrust Lu Xun, but she couldn’t distrust the gentleman.
“Then I’ll trouble Uncle Lu.” ShHaving said this, she backed away and added, “The spiritual energy in Jiang disciple nephew’s body is somewhat chaotic, be careful Uncle Lu.”
Lu Xun nodded, looking at Jiang Nan’an.
Among all the world protagonists, Jiang Nan’an was one of the earliest to start cultivating, and had been cultivating for a few years longer than Ye Sui’an.
His current cultivation base is precisely at the ninth level of the Third Realm, which is higher than the character level of Lu Xun.
Therefore, Lu Xun dared not underestimate him.
After all, even at level 39, the strength of each individual varied drastically.
Moreover, Jiang Nan’an was armed to the teeth with all kinds of magical weapons.
“Hairband, cloak, belt, shoes, jade pendant… Which item on him isn’t a magical weapon?” Lu Xun was jealous to the point of going mad.
Leaving other things aside, have you ever seen a person with five jade pendant-like magical weapons hanging on his belt?
This was just too conspicuous!
And Lu Xun knew very well that these items were not bestowed by the Qingtian Sect, nor were they bought by Jiang Nan’an.
Unsurprisingly, they were probably picked up casually during various adventures…
The moment he approached Jiang Nan’an, the Child of Destiny with a disorderly aura instinctively launched an attack against him.
The spiritual energy within the latter was in a rampage, anxious to be vented.
“He’s just like a berserker.” Lu Xun thought to himself.
However, even when playing a game, entering a berserk state doesn’t affect a player’s operation. But when a person actually goes berserk, they’re just like a wildly thrashing beast.
“This makes it a bit easier to deal with.” Lu Xun thought, producing sword Qi at his fingertips and then beginning to retaliate.
“First, make him surrender, then forcibly pour my righteous brewed brew into him!”
“Young man, come here and let me purify you!”
Lu Xun invoked sword Qi with his right hand and held green energy in his left palm, intending to inject it into Jiang Nan’an’s body at the right moment.
With a wave of his hand, a cloud was created.
The spreading mist was all his sword intent, engulfing the surroundings in a flash.
“This is… Mastering of Sword Intent!” Mo Yurou blinked a few times at Lu Xun, completely astonished.
“With cultivation at the Third Realm, he has achieved mastery in the Sword Dao. Is this the rumored Natural Sword Embryo?” She wondered to herself.
The fog engulfed Jiang Nan’an, and no matter what he did, he couldn’t break through the fog. Currently, he was shouting desperately within it, showing his rage ineffectively.
When the timing was right, Lu Xun disappeared in an instant, and the next moment he was right in front of Jiang Nan’an, who raised his hands and blasted at Lu Xun. His raging spiritual energy created a sound like the wind breaking, with what seemed to be black lightning mutating around them.
“That’s pretty cool.” Lu Xun internally remarked.
But, when it came to a head-on battle of spiritual power, he had never lost.
His Five Elements Spiritual Power began to wildly output as Lu Xun raised his sword sheath, much like a teacher wielding a ruler, and gave two swift, forceful slaps on Jiang Nan’an’s hands.
Since he was now in a state of chaos and didn’t feel pain, Lu Xun struck hard without holding back.
By the time he regained consciousness, the green energy would have already healed his injuries, and he might not even know he had been hit.
After blocking the attack, Lu Xun immediately raised his left hand and pointed to his forehead.
Green energy was lingering around his fingertips, and the moment his finger touched his forehead, the energy drilled into him.
Finally, he succeeded to purify him.
Then, Lu Xun watched as Jiang Nan’an’s spiritual power grew exponentially.
He sighed to himself, saying “Truly the Child of Destiny, turning disaster into fortune.”
In just a moment, Lu Xun saw clarity return to Jiang Nan’an’s eyes.
His consciousness seemed to have partially returned.
As green energy nourished his body and his soul, he felt comfortable and warm.
The first face he saw upon regaining consciousness was that of Lu Xun, who wore a gentle smile.
What kind of face was that?
Sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, extraordinary temperament, there was simply no flaw to be found.
“Is he an immortal?” Jiang Nan’an thought subconsciously before passing out.
