Chapter 367: Hidden Crisis
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
– Jiuhua City Shop –
Different from the all-year-round gloomy sky in Half City, this city was usually blessed with warm sunshine.
Even though it was early winter, the sunshine in the sky still brought people warmth.
Looking through the big glass window, one could see several young warriors practicing fist techniques on the street.
A young man wearing purple clothes swung his right hand toward the ground in a hook shape and yelled, “Die!”
Heated warrior qi turned into a bright red flame and shot to the ground at a great speed.
“Haha... Hahaha... Hahahaha!” The young man stuck his fingers in his hair and gave the trademark laughter. “From now on, call me Iori Yagami!”
“Get out!” Lin Shao rolled his eyes at him, “Iori Yagami’s Shiki Yami Barai shoots purple flames, but yours is red with the warrior qi from your Song Family’s Six-Sun Spell. It’s better for you to learn the fist techniques of Kyo Kusanagi.”
“Kyo’s fist techniques are not difficult for me!” Song Qingfeng laughed and punched out. Immediately, a flame exploded close to his fist, and more flames appeared when he used an upper-cut.
While he used the powerful punches, flames shot out in all directions, and heat waves spread all over the place, turning the cold winter’s day into a hot summer’s day.
“Awesome!”
“You’re just like Kyo Kusanagi!”
“Use Shiki Orochi Nagi!”
“I haven’t mastered it yet!” Song Qingfeng looked embarrassed.
“How difficult can that be?” At this moment, Nalan Mingxue and Lan Yan strolled toward the shop.
With a wave of her right hand, a mass of icy blue mist-like flame condensed by warrior qi appeared in her hand. Then, she shot out the icy blue mist flame!
Waves of pale blue warrior qi that looked like flames and mist shot out, and the extremely low temperature threatened to freeze the air in the area. The masses of ice crystals looked radiant and dazzling under the sun.
“Oh!” The others stared at her in a daze. “How come you learned it so fast?”
“Do you know how to cast the Ultimate Desperation Move, Mu Shiki?!”
“Not yet!” Nalan Mingxue’s lips curved up while she walked into the shop.
It was morning, and Jiang Xiaoyue was counting money at the counter while eating instant noodles. Nalan Hongwu bought a box of spicy sticks and a bowl of instant noodles and walked to sit on a couch with Elder Fu, who was carrying two bottles of Coke in his arms.
Su Tianji and her two disciples, Fenghua and Yuexin, had already begun eating their breakfast while sitting on a couch. Right now, An Huwei had just strode into the shop.
Lounging on a couch, Xu Zixin and Shen Qingqing sipped their Coke.
The upheavals in Half City didn’t disturb the serene and relaxed atmosphere in this place. Except for the expansion of the shop space, everything looked the same as when Fang Qi left.
“Kid Fang has gone to the Morning Star Sea Realm for a long time,” Nalan Hongwu shook his head and said, “Sometimes, I find that things are not the same without him, and I’m not used to it.”
“But we can still watch movies and TV Series with him,” Lan Mo said while eating instant noodles.
“That’s virtual reality and not real,” Su Tianji said.
“Well! I wonder when the Shop Owner will come back.” Song Qingfeng finally finished showing off his fist techniques and plunked down on a couch with a bowl of instant noodles in his hands. “I now have mastered the sword control technique. If I fly again, I will look dashing and proficient!”
He still remembered the incident in which he almost crashed into the ground face-first.
“Xiaoyue,” Lan Yan bought two bowls of instant noodles and said, “Mr. Fang as been out for a long time. Do you miss him?”
“Why should I miss the despicable Boss?” Pouting, Jiang Xiaoyue looked unhappy. “With the powerful cultivators and many beautiful girls in Half City, I think he’s enjoying himself and doesn’t want to come back. Humph!”
“Achoo!” At this moment, someone sneezed on the stairs. “It’s only the early morning, and I already hear someone saying bad things about me?”
“This voice... is quite familiar.”
Subconsciously, everyone turned their gazes toward that direction.
“Boss-?!” Jiang Xiaoyue covered her little mouth in disbelief. “How come you came down from upstairs?!”
“It is all because of my power!” A mass of reddish-black mist floated down after Fang Qi. “My power is almighty and teleported this kid from a place far, far away!”
The others looked even more baffled. “Sir, what’s that?!”
“I am a lofty Saint Demon born from nature!” An overbearing voice sounded from the mass of reddish-black mist. “You mortals should address me as the Saint Demon!”
“So powerful?”
“Saint Demon? How come it can be both a saint and a demon? What is it?”
The people began to talk among themselves since no one in the Jiuhua City Shop had ever seen such a thing!
“Get out!” Mr. Fang slapped it back upstairs. “It is the newly-made teleportation array. Due to some mistake in the creation process...”
He pointed to his head, saying, “It’s not right in here.”
All the people were at a loss for words.
“You are not right in your head!” The mass of black mist flew down again and yelled, “Listen up! I’m the legendary Saint Demon who has mastered the laws of nature. If any of you call me Saint Lord respectfully and obeys my orders, I will teach you how to understand the laws...”
Before it could finish, it was stepped to the ground by a foot.
“Ahh! Ahh! You dare to treat me like this? After I escape, I’ll skin you alive... Ahh!”
Bank! After some shrilling screams, it was kicked back upstairs.
The door to the staircase was shut.
After clapping his hands, Mr. Fang pinched Jiang Xiaoyue’s cheek casually and said, “Girl, you’ve got chubby with food.”
“...”
...
Meanwhile, in the distant Mystic Land of the Taixi Faction.
“B*stards of the Taixi Faction! You will die pathetically! Ahh!” A shrilling scream came from the depths of the Mystic Land.
Lightning bolts were flashing in the Mystic Land. Duyou Holiness, who was wearing a white robe with golden patterns, had a chilly expression on his face. “It’s been so long, and some of them are still resisting?”
A middle-aged cultivator walked up. “Holiness, the elders from different factions are here.”
The elders from major forces such as Remote Jade Hill Mountain, Dragon Sea Daoist Palace, and Linglang Mountain were invited to this place. A short and chubby cultivator wearing luxurious clothes was the first one to ask, “Holiness, how is the healing process of our disciples?”
Duyou Holiness didn’t answer; instead, he looked toward the middle-aged cultivator beside him.
“B*stards of Taixi Faction, are you afraid?” At this moment, a yell came from inside.
The middle-aged cultivator’s face fell as he said, “Most disciples are doing well, but sadly, a few of them have poison deep in their systems, and it doesn’t look good.”
“What?!” That middle-aged cultivator in the luxurious robe was shocked, and his expression changed drastically. “Is Internet Addiction so powerful?!”
The cultivator of the Taixi Faction said, “We are surprised as well. Fortunately, we discovered the problem in time. Otherwise, the Internet Addiction poison would have spread all over the cultivator world. If tens of thousands of cultivators contract this poison, even immortals can’t save us!”
“Then... what should we do now?!” In the past 1,000 years, the Three Saint Gates were the authority in the whole cultivation world. Although they rarely moved around in the world, their words had great weight among the cultivation factions.
The cultivator of the Taixi Faction said, “The only way to stop this catastrophe is to destroy that shop and cut off the source of this poison!”
