Book 7: Chapter 3:1: Chen Heng Offends Fu Hua Again, Part 1 |
Indeed, Luo Li had likely lived for many years before the world reset and crossed the threshold of adulthood. However, this was after the world reset, so she was not 18 yet. In fact, she had just reached 16, still a long way from the legal standard of 20 for females to get married.
Luo Li was powerful, but she could not change her age as recorded in her current world.
Perhaps Luo Li unconsciously considered herself an old witch who had lived countless years—that might even be true—resulting in her subconsciously forgetting about this matter.
“Pfft…! I say, Little Li, you—”
“It’s fine. It’s just four years; I can wait.” Before Chen Heng finished speaking, Luo Li vanished. When she reappeared, she was sitting on Chen Heng. After staring at him for a while, she disappeared again, not allowing him to refuse.
“Wait! Wait! I haven’t agreed…yet.”
Why did Chen Heng not say anything when Luo Li sat on him? While it might sound embarrassing, he could not get up or say anything when she sat on him.
Erm…this is too much, right?
------
After the earlier matter, Chen Heng discovered he might be slightly weaker than Luo Li, so he decided to strengthen himself.
“…Why do you want to learn the Void Sword’s sword form? Focus on the sword conceptions. Your Chiliad Sword Conception does not need the sword techniques, just the sword conceptions.”
“Master, I still have the sword conceptions my ancestor left in the ancestral crystal. However, I only have the Void Sword Technique. If I don’t practice the sword technique, how do I comprehend its sword conception? Speaking of which, why did Master hold back when I made the transaction with you for the Poké Ball containing the Will of Honkai? You could have replicated your sword conception and given it to me through the Dimension Administrators Association but simply gave me the sword technique.”
It only just occurred to Chen Heng. He recalled that the Dimension Administrators Association had a red packet function. It would allow one to send their techniques, conceptions, and any other learned abilities to another person using the red packet function. This way, others would require less effort when learning. However, Fu Hua had not done that.
“…”
“Master, you went silent. Master, you are no longer the innocent master of the past and have learned cunning. In this corrupt world, even the Immortal Phoenix has learned to lie. How can I save you, my master?!” Chen Heng felt that his master was feeling guilty.
“…”
“Just think of the goddess master in my heart back then, how gentle, how sincere…my dreams are shattered now. The Immortal in my heart now…”
“Elder Brother, you’d better stop there.” Sirin, who was sitting on the sofa behind Chen Heng, tugged his sleeve as she interrupted him, signaling him not to continue.
“Huh?” Chen Heng turned to look at Sirin, who seemed somewhat scared, and then at Fu Hua hanging her head, her eyes hidden behind her bangs, radiating an air of depression. He suddenly felt that things weren’t going well. Maybe he had just done something downright foolish.
“Mas…Master, I-I’m sorry. I really am. I got carried away earlier. Master, please don’t take offense. My head got a bit messed up when I bumped it against the door. Please, don’t pay any attention to what I said.”
“Alright, my disciple, Master won’t take offense at what you said earlier. I’m a reasonable person. Little Heng, I’ve already sent you the sword conception you wanted via a red packet.” Fu Hua slowly lifted her head, but to Chen Heng’s surprise, she wore a radiant smile. But…why did Chen Heng feel that Fu Hua was even scarier now?
Chen Heng opened the Dimension Administrators Association and found that his master had indeed sent him a red packet containing the Void Sword’s sword conception.
“Tha-thank you, Master.”
“Don’t mention it. But I worry that you might stray from the right path while practicing the sword conception due to inexperience, so I’ve decided to guide you personally.” Fu Hua’s smile seemed even brighter now, but Chen Heng increasingly sensed that something was amiss.
“No need, Master. I think I can handle it myself.”
“No, I think you can’t. Let me guide you personally. Fenghuang Down!”
“Master, please don’t! I was wrong! Little Li, help…” Chen Heng saw a few scarlet feathers suddenly floating beside him and panicked. Due to Fu Hua’s ring, Chen Heng was powerless before her, so he could only turn to Luo Li, who was sitting next to Sirin. Sirin? Remember how Fu Hua pummeled the pufferfish at Babylon Labs?
Before losing consciousness, Chen Heng saw the icy glare in Luo Li’s eyes. Great, it is confirmed; Luo Li is still angry. It wasn’t my fault; it was the world’s fault!
------
“My head hurts! Little Li, water… Huh? This scene seems oddly familiar.” When Chen Heng opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the familiar ceiling…and a chandelier?
Chen Heng suddenly sat up and looked around, realizing that he was in the living room and had been lying on the sofa.
“This… Isn’t this a bit much? They didn’t even bother to take me back to my room? Even if Little Li and Master didn’t send me there, at least Sirin… That darn little pufferfish.”
Chen Heng sighed and then checked the time on the Dimension Administrators Association’s interface. He had awakened his memories last night, and when he woke up, it was already daytime. His master had pulled him to Fenghuang Down’s independent space for guidance, and it was now evening.
He couldn’t believe an entire day had passed in just the blink of an eye.
In Fenghuang Down’s independent space, Chen Heng’s sense of time had been stretched greatly. Although only a day had passed in reality, inside Fenghuang Down’s independent space…
Chen Heng had not expected Fenghuang Down to be used this way.
The good news was that Chen Heng had successfully mastered the Void Sword’s sword conception with the help of the red packet and his master’s guidance in this short period.
Once Chen Heng was confident he had mastered this sword conception, he lay back on the sofa and began to form the Will Energy sword.
