Chapter 378: Lazy Long Ming...Doesn’t Make a Move
Fu Mingyu was born with a unique body. However, there wasn’t a shred of bloodline power inside her.
Her cultivation speed was also subpar, reaching the True Core Formation realm at the age of 50! She was 30 years older than Fu Mingwu.
However, Fu Mingyu realized she had talent in the field of Rune Inscription. Her spiritual power and soul are abnormally vast, making her suitable for spiritual cultivation.
Alas, crafting professions like pill refining and rune inscriptions are simply money burning profession. If you don’t burn money to learn them, you won’t be earning anything at all.
However, it all changed a year ago, when she met a strange man in her neighbourhood. She does odd jobs, wishing to gather money and send his brother to a sect.
But that day, she met Long Ming, a rich leecher who was quite famous for visiting the biggest brothel almost every other night. Feeling he was lusting after her, Fu Mingyu tried to avoid him first.
However, she was surprised when Long Ming told her that he could teach her rune inscription. After a few days of trial, Fu Mingyu was simply surprised, or perhaps...scared.
The fellow wasn’t simple at all! Along with a wild handsomeness and robust body, his knowledge was simply incomparable.
Tsk...truly a dangerous man, enough to make her resolute heart sway. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
The three talismans blazed, making her sword shine. As Fu Mingyu’s sword moved, three swords condensed around her, attacking the incoming henchmen in a sync.
Sincer her cultivation power is ordinary, Long Ming taught her to fight directly with talismans.
Your power is weak? Use a talisman. One isn’t working? Use ten!
Just crush the enemies with talismans. Who says you only need battle techniques to attack?
Fu Mingyu pulled out three more talismans. However, rather than throwing, she used it on herself.
Swift Wind Talisman to increase her speed, she used two of them. The third one is Golden Shield Talisman, to protect herself against the attack.
Three fire swords roared in unison, turning into sword lights and piercing the body of one of the henchmen. However, the second one appeared on her side, swinging a short axe.
" Crushing Blow!"
With a sudden burst of speed, Fu Mingyu twisted her body, avoiding the attack. However, the axe still reached the side of her ankle as the person swung it down.
At that moment, a blink of gold appeared, shattering the moment the axe hit her legs. The Golden Shield Talisman managed to defend herself from an injury.
" Useless bastards! Can’t take care of a girl!" Wen Qiming sneered as he stepped forward.
" Gale Demon Steps!"
With a single stride, Wen Qiming jumped like a leaping wolf. His kick was vicious, aiming straight at Fu Mingyu’s head.
Fu Mingyu sneered, swinging her sword to create a defensive stance. But the moment Wen Qiming’s kick landed, Fu Mingyu’s sword lights shattered in an instant, the remnants of Golden Shield Talisman were barely blocked before vanishing as well.
Fu Mingyu got pushed back, her eyes turning serious. However, Wen Qiming didn’t gave her chance at all. His speed was simply like wind, chasing after Fu Mingyu.
" Soul Shock!"
Unable to draw a talisman, Fu Mingyu’s eyes deepened as she gazed at Wen Qiming. Wen Qiming had already kicked three times at Fu Mingyu, but at that moment, his head buzzed. It was a strange ache, as if his soul suddenly shivered.
The brief moment gave Fu Mingyu a chance to dodge the attack. However, strangely enough, Wen Qiming didn’t stop as she expected.
" Hahaha! Spiritual technique? Bold move!" Wen Qiming sneered, " Unfortunately, my treasure ring protects me against such underhanded methods."
Fu Mingyu couldn’t help but curse inwardly. Her mastery of offensive spiritual technique isn’t great. And what bad luck, Wen Qiming actually has a spiritual treasure!
Fucking nobles and their wealth! The poor can’t compete at all!
Fu Mingyu was about to attack Wen Qiming, but suddenly, her expression changed. She saw that an enemy had already reached Fu Mingwu.
Fu Mingwu was already ready to fight, but Fu Mingyu knew her brother’s state. Without hesitation, she threw a talisman at the enemy.
" Five Thunder Talisman!"
*BOOM! BOOM!*
Thunderclaps echoed in the allies as the talisman turned into a flash of silver, crashing on the enemy.
Wen Qiming’s henchman cried out as his back turned into char in an instant.
However, this gave Wen Qiming the chance to attack. A pair of daggers appeared in his hands, slashing at Fu Mingyu.
" Shadow Reaper!"
The two daggers flashed with pitch black energy, as if a demonic beast opening its maw. Fu Mingyu’s heart turned cold, realized it was too late to defend herself.
She bit her tongue, drawing out blood and spitting on her sword. The blood stains wriggled, barely forming a few runes before she swung it.
The blood energy exploded as his sword turned into a burst of energy, clashing against the daggers.
" Argh!"
The shadow energy around the daggers twisted, turning into thorns. Fu Mingyu’s blood sword crushed many of them, but her belly was still slashed open.
Blood splattered on the ground as Fu Mingyu knelt down, her vision turning blurry.
" Hmph! Relying on talismans, what a bunch of cowards." Wen Qiming sneered as he raised his dagger.
" SISTER!"
Fu Mingwu roared as he pulled his strength to rush at Wen Qiming. However, Wen Qiming snorted, throwing his dagger. Fu Mingyu clenched his teeth as the dagger stabbed into his thigh, making him stumble.
" Xiao Wu..." Fu Mingyu flinched to see Fu Mingwu getting injured, but she couldn’t muster any strength to move. Fu Mingyu spat on the ground, throwing the Blood Blaze Pill and the spirit stones
" BASTARD! TAKE AWAY WHATEVER YOU WISH! LEAVE HER ALONE!"
" Hmph! You think I am a beggar?" Wen Qiming sneered, " You dare to snatch my first position? Courting death!"
" Heh, with Blood Blaze Pill, I will also take your sister. Interest after all."
Right before Wen Qiming could make a move, a voice startled everyone.
" Fellow daoists, what’s the matter here?"
Fu Mingyu trembled as she looked to the mouth of the alley, seeing a familiar figure. Wen Qiming snorted as he was focused on Fu Mingwu.
" Take care of the bastard. Don’t disturb me."
The remaining men of Wen Clan nodded as they rushed to Long Ming.
" Don’t try to meddle in others’ affairs."
" Fuck off, Old man."
" Old man?" Long Ming’s face darkened. " Motherfucker, I am still young!"
" Beat them to death!"
Long Ming didn’t even move, but Lan Jicheng jumped from behind. His saber flashed, like a roaring beast.
Blood splattered in an instant as the saber qi ripped apart all the Wen Clan disciples at once. Wen Qiming was stunned as his expression changed.
" Bastard! Do you know me? You dare to mess with the Wen Clan?!"
" What a mere Wen Clan? Dare to mention the name before our Green Scale Clan? Looks like Wen Daizhou doesn’t wish to see tomorrow’s sunrise."
" Az-Azure Scale Clan?"
Wen Qiming’s face turned pale in an instant when he heard Lan Jicheng’s words. However, before he could react, Lan Jicheng’s saber flashed.
Like an execution saber, a green saber qi condensed in the air. A single strike and both legs of Wen Qiming were severed in an instant.
" ARRGHH! MY LEGS!"
Blood spilled out like lake as Wen Qiming fell on ground, crying in agony.
Long Ming didn’t bother as he walked to Fu Mingyu, helping her to get up. Before she could speak anything, Long Ming forced a pill in her mouth.
" Why you guys feeling so gloomy?" Long Ming chuckled, picking up the pair of Fu siblings like grocery bags.
" Today is the day of celebration. Both of you owe me dinner."
Lan Jicheng bowed before Long Ming, " Senior Long, we will take care of the matter of Wen Clan."
" En, dig around. I believe you will find more." Long Ming nodded, " Luo Luo! Come out! We are leaving!"
" YESS!!"
As the group left, Lan Jicheng looked at Wen Qiming, who are rolling on the bloodied ground.
" Jicheng, did you open the gates of the carriage for Long Ming when he walked out??" Lan Xuming’s voice echoed in Lan Jicheng’s mind, startling him.
" Huh? I thought you did it, Father? Didn’t you let him go out?"
A moment of pause before Lan Xuming took a deep breath.
"... So he casually walked out from our Royal Grade treasure, famed for defensive and spatial arrays?"
Both father and son gasped with shock and fear.
