“That’s pretty good.”
Xue Jing nodded with satisfaction.
"As Shadow Flame continues to upgrade, the Beast of No Return should also be strengthened. This is enough for now."
"Also... this move seems to have a magical use."
Xue Jing's mind moved, and he made the non-existent beast open its mouth slightly six meters away from him.
Then.
In the void, more than a dozen thick black roots suddenly sprang out, like the tentacles of some ancient god, dancing in the air.
"The Dragon Cherry Seed can now extend from the void to attack, without having to be taken out... The flexibility and concealment of the attack have been improved by several levels."
Xue Jing blinked.
“It’s this scene… It makes me lose my SAN a little bit.”
Controlling the roots of the dragon cherry seeds to retract into the 'void', Xue Jing stretched himself lazily, feeling quite happy.
"Next, I'll find some time to go to Xu's Biological Company and have a look. With the 'Beast of No Existence', what can I not steal?"
After opening the door, Xue Jing walked down the stairs and came to the living room on the first floor. He saw the cat lying on the little maid's lap, watching cartoons lazily.
He thought about it, then smiled and said:
"Teacher Wan, please help me test my new ability."
The cat's furry tail swayed leisurely. Hearing this, he glanced at Xue Jing and said lazily, "How come you have a new ability?"
She had gotten used to Xue Jing coming up with new tricks every once in a while.
"How do you try?"
Xue Jing smiled and did not reply, but walked closer to Maomao, into the range where the non-existent beast could devour her, and an idea came to his mind.
Silently, as if swallowed by an invisible void monster, the cat disappeared.
"Eh? Master?"
The little maid Yunqin was confused and a little panicked.
Xue Jing didn't explain, but looked up into the sky.
One second later.
With a strange "clang" sound, the cat appeared in the air about four meters above the ground in the direction of Xue Jing's sight. Its fur exploded and its two front paws ejected snake-killing spearheads, scratching around frantically.
Realizing that she had escaped and was falling from the air, she glared at Xue Jing, turned nimbly in the air, and was then caught by Xue Jing with a smile.
"Don't do this kind of surprise attack, what kind of a weird ability is this!"
The cat said angrily with an anthropomorphic look of dissatisfaction on its face.
Xue Jing quickly reached out and stroked the hair on her back, comforting her: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just wanted to see how long it would take you to get out of trouble when you instinctively struggle in an emergency..."
I've almost tested it out, the effect of the non-existent beast swallowing people.
It won't stay there for long if the victim struggles violently... But it's useful enough.
Just the momentary confusion of the opponent after swallowing it was enough for him to do a lot of things.
Not to mention that it can also determine where the other party will appear after struggling and vomiting.
Forced Apparition... outrageous.
This is invincible.
Xue Jing used the super fur-smoothing technique he had practiced a long time ago to soothe the cat, and soon made her so happy that all her dissatisfaction was smoothed away.
"This is my new ability, the beast of non-existence..."
Xue Jing softly described the characteristics of the non-existent beast.
In the future, there will probably be situations where he needs to fight together with Maomao, or when he encounters a strong enemy and cannot spare the time to protect Maomao, he must explain the abilities of the Beast of No Existence to her in advance.
In order to avoid the beast that does not exist swallowing her, which was originally intended to protect her, but ended up causing a misunderstanding.
"... Your abilities are getting more and more exaggerated. Where did you get this cool protagonist?"
After hearing this, Maomao covered his forehead with his paws and said helplessly.
Xue Jing looked away and laughed casually:
"God's chosen son, that's how it should be."
…
At noon, Xue Jing sat on the sofa, watching the live broadcast in front of him.
This is another live draw for the U19 team, and the opponents for the semi-finals are drawn.
Xue Jing nodded as he watched the middle-aged man on the stage, who was suspected to be a master of breaking the limit, open the lottery ball in his hand, revealing the words "Xue Jing" written on the note.
“As expected.”
Final Four Game 1:
Song Nanxing VS Otogi Suzuka.
Final Four Game 2:
Xue Jing VS Zhou Yinglin.
"This idiot hasn't given up yet... I guess he's rigged the lottery results again."
Xue Jing said softly.
"Well, since you still dare to face me, I will completely defeat you this time."
"Both physically and mentally."
Xue Jing pressed the bracelet to close the holographic live broadcast. He looked towards the gate of the villa and his ears moved slightly.
With my increasingly keen hearing, I could already hear footsteps in the distance.
He had even realized from the weight of his footsteps and the spacing between his steps that the person coming was Ning Yuantai.
"His steps were unsteady, he seemed a little anxious..."
Xue Jing thought to himself.
…
(Is this spherical cubic meter calculation correct? I'm a little unsure... 904.32 cubic meters for a sphere with a radius of six meters?)
Chapter 255: The most vicious White Emperor Sword in the world, go to the West to ask for help from the Buddha Youqing! (4K)
"Brother Xue, something happened!"
The little maid Yunqin opened the door, and Ning Yuantai came in and shouted anxiously.
Xue Jing sat on the sofa in the living room, glanced at Ning Yuantai, his expression did not change, he just smiled and said softly:
"Calm down, Motoyasu, have you eaten yet?"
As if affected by Xue Jing's usual attitude, Ning Yuantai's mood also calmed down a bit. He subconsciously shook his head and said, "Not yet..."
He raised his right hand and looked at the bracelet on it, which showed the time was 12:03 noon.
It seems like a coincidence again...
"No, I'm not here to eat for free!"
"Brother Xue, Lu Baidi is here. He is in Yuancheng and just got off the plane!"
Ning Yuantai reached out and took the wet towel handed to him by the maid and wiped his slightly sweaty forehead.
"Lu Baidi?" When Xue Jing heard the name, he felt it sounded familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.
"'White Emperor' Lu Shenliu! He is the holder of the contemporary 'Hegemon' title. He has won the title for four consecutive terms. If he wins it again this year, he will advance to the eternal title!"
Ning Yuantai said with a serious look.
Xue Jing raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
He remembered that Yin Muhu had mentioned this person when they were chatting before.
It is said that her master, King Kong Zhou, one of the three heroes of Yucheng, went to the Tiger Palace to participate in the "Battle of the Overlords" more than three months ago, but it is not known whether he did not participate or lost in the end. Anyway, it was still Lu Shenliu who got the title of "Overlord".
"Is there any problem with his origin city?" Xue Jing asked with a little confusion.
Ning Yuantai nodded and said seriously: "There is a problem, and it is a big problem."
"This White Emperor, the martial art he uses, the 'White Emperor Sword', is known as 'the most vicious in the world' and 'the sharpest in the world'."
After a pause, Ning Yuantai continued:
"In this world, all the top martial artists practice martial arts schools and styles that are closely related to their own temperaments. The White Emperor's blade is extremely sharp and ferocious, and so is the temperament of the person who uses it. Everything is determined by the blade. If there is a disagreement, they will chop people. Everything will be solved by chopping."
"... Lu Shenliu is one of the very few martial artists of the old martial arts school who did not have a good background but eventually became one of the top martial artists. He was able to reach where he is today not because of anything else but because of his courage to fight and kill."
"As long as he can afford the reward he wants, he dares to kill anyone and take any job. In this way, he constantly collects precious martial arts resources that ordinary people can't get. With this way of living on a tightrope that can break at any time, he has miraculously come to where he is today!"
Xue Jing heard this and exclaimed: "Hey, that's amazing."
Without A-ban, despite his poor background, he obtained the title that symbolized the top of the old martial arts world. He was only one step away from getting a permanent title, and he looked down on others with pride.
The stories of such people must be quite exciting, and they are like living legends.
"Now is not the time to sigh about how great others are, Brother Xue!"
Ning Yuantai scratched his head.
"…After Lu Baidi obtained the title of Overlord, he has been staying in the Tiger Palace and rarely goes out, but once he goes out, it is for 'business'."
"Now that he is in a high position, the price he asks for is getting more and more terrifying. Generally speaking, he will only be asked to take action if you want to take action against someone who theoretically cannot be taken directly."
Xue Jingyou tapped the armrest of the sofa with his fingers and asked:
"So who is he trying to move from this source city?"
Ning Yuantai said seriously: "This is why I came here... I suspect that Lu Baidi's target is most likely you."
"Me?" Xue Jing looked thoughtful.
"The people who deserve to be asked to help by Lu Shenliu are either the real top executives of major super companies, or people related to the Thirteen Giants, or people like our Sixth Agency who eat public food."
"There are not many such people in Yuancheng at present. The probability of Xu Mude and Zhou Yinglin being the likely ones is too low, and the most likely person is you."
Ning Yuantai analyzed very seriously.
"You have that person behind you, and he is also a member of our Sixth Agency. If we attack you directly, it will anger the two behemoths, so we need someone like Lu Shenliu who can attack without any scruples..."
"Besides, you humiliated Zhou Yinglin in the arena a few days ago. Maybe this kid is holding a grudge against you and can't beat you, so he called the parents to cheat!"
Ning Yuantai looked as if he was being stared at by Lu Shenliu, with an angry look on his face, gritting his teeth.
"Zhou Yinglin..." Xue Jing read the name and shook his head.
He didn't think it was Zhou Yinglin.
He felt that it was very likely that Lu Shenliu's target was him, but he was probably not someone Zhou Yinglin had invited.
Although this man was arrogant and foul-mouthed, and looked down on the country folk all day long, Xue Jing could see that he was also a martial artist with great ambitions.
When Xue Jing saw Zhou Yinglin again on the ring a few days ago, he obviously looked like he had not been defeated.
This kind of person, until he is really devastated and has given up hope, will not have any thoughts other than "getting back the favor himself" in his mind.
If Zhou Yinglin is excluded, then among Xue Jing's remaining enemies, there is basically only one who can afford the "big price".
"Zhu family..."
Xue Jing thought for a while and asked doubtfully, "I have a few questions... Lu Shenliu dared to attack the upper class like the Thirteen Households. Shouldn't this kind of rule-breaking existence be a thorn in the eyes and flesh of the rule-makers like the Thirteen Households? Why can he live until now? The strength of the owner of the Eternal Title should not be enough to protect himself against such a behemoth, right?"
"Moreover, since Lu Shenliu's existence is well known, then the people who are approached by Lu Shenliu should also be able to determine who is looking for Lu Shenliu to kill them... In this case, what is the difference between this and directly taking action?"
Hearing Xue Jing's words, Ning Yuantai unconsciously lowered his voice:
"Brother Xue, you don't know that many people, including the Thirteen Great Families, really wish that Lu Shenliu would die... but they have reservations and don't dare to really touch him."
Ning Yuantai paused and continued:
