Chapter 306: A Way to Defeat the Lich? (2/2)
WHOOSH
A dagger suddenly entered the darkness domain and pierced the right glowing eye of the lich. The light dimmed for a moment before it regenerated.
The lich pulled out the dagger and tossed it back at the thrower, Lu Fengxian, whom Hua Xiong had been piggybacking.
Hua Xiong tilted his body to dodge the dagger, but Lu Fengxian caught it with his hand.
The ex-immortal nonchalantly ordered, ”General, move closer to the domain. Get to the border if you can.”
Hua Xiong broke a sweat, ”We're already 20 paces away from the domain! If you go further, we'll be in that thing!”
”Without getting closer, I can't aim properly. Just now, I was planning to hit two eyes at once, but one of them missed.”
”You only threw one knife, though.”
”It was supposed to ricochet inside that lich's skull and pierce another one. My aim is off by half a fingertip.”
”…”
Hua Xiong had a thousand words that he wanted to retort out loud, but he gave up bickering with this unreasonable youth.
”What about the crazy bastard you talked about? When will he come to help us?”
”Ha! He already helped us. He took the girl and that boy emperor away.”
”Hah!? That's it!?”
Lu Fengxian snickered, ”What else can he do? He's a lowly 4th-stage cultivator. Do you think he can simply come here and pick a fight with a death knight or that fucking monster?”
”… Probably not.”
”That guy is there to pick up our corpses home so that we won't be turned into one of those monsters. We'd better be grateful for his effort. At least, we'll get to enjoy our funeral back home.”
Hua Xiong wanted to cry. From Lu Fengxian's tone, he already gave up his fate and his life. That meant, none of them could survive today.
”Ah! Screw it! I'll just stalk at the border then!”
Hua Xiong stopped throwing tantrums and followed Lu Fengxian's instruction word by word. He flew closer to the dark domain's edge, stalking the lich as instructed.
”Good, and now…”
As Lu Fengxian was commanding Hua Xiong and looking for an opportunity to strike again, he sensed Miaomiao's presence getting closer.
As the master of the apostle, Lu Fengxian could tell where Miaomiao was regardless of the latter's stealth ability. He could even gauge the amount of Qi, Essence, and Luck that Miaomiao had inside him.
Lu Fengxian widened his eyes in astonishment when he sensed the amount of Luck within Miaomiao's hidden 13th meridian. It might not have been awakened properly yet, but it contained a lot of Luck energy comparing to two pieces of Heavenly Fate Fragment.
Moreover, the Light Element Qi in his dantian was odd. It seemed… familiar.
'That dao signature… OG-Buddha? Wait, he used that ogre's talisman before! Does he have more of them!? Is that why he has that guy's Qi?'
Lu Fengxian squinted his eyes and read Miaomiao's mind. Then, the corner of his mouth curved up.
The invisible man crept closer to the dark domain. He also stopped at the edge of the dome for a moment before he decided to take a detour and stood next to Hua Xiong.
Miaomiao then whispered to Lu Fengxian, ”Master, can you share your vision? I can't see that monster from here. I have two light spell talismans right here.”
”Oh?” Lu Fengxian almost burst into laughter. He had already read Miaomiao's mind and understood what his apostle had been planning.
But instead of giving Miaomiao his vision, he ordered Hua Xiong, ”General.”
”Yeah?”
”Transfer all your Qi and elemental Qi to my disciple over here.”
”What? Transfer to who!?” Hua Xiong didn't see anyone.
”Over here.”
”I see nobody, though.”
Lu Fengxian grabbed Hua Xiong's hand and placed it on Miaomiao's back.
”Here!”
Hua Xiong almost jumped away in shock, ”WHAT!? HOW!?”
”Stop asking unnecessary questions and do it. This is our only hope to survive.”
”But what my cultivation base…”
”Why do you care about it when you can simply recover your Qi and Essence after resting a few months? Why are you even hesitating? Are you prefer dying here or sleeping at home idly for a few months? Make your choice.”
”…”
Hua Xiong wanted to cry for real. Since he couldn't survive alone with all the death knights flying around, he took another gamble.
”Okay.”
”Good. Make sure you transfer everything since we need every strand of Qi. As for you, Miaomiao, make sure you absorb everything and try to convert them into light element Qi.”
Miaomiao in his invisible form stared at Lu Fengxian's face, confused, ”I haven't comprehended the light element yet. Also, is that earth element Qi I'm sensing!? I don't even have the earth element core! How am I going to convert them into light element!?”
Lu Fengxian rolled his eyes, doubting Miaomiao's wits, ”You haven't, even once, tried to read my mind at all? You could have easily learned so many tricks and tips in forming elemental crystals and essence seas, including element conversion!”
”Uh, I can read your mind and memory? Really!?”
”Close your damn eyes and try to feel the connection between us. Then, you'll be able to read my mind, my past, and even my memory if you pay attention enough! Normally, I wouldn't have allowed it, but this is an exception! Do you know how many people are willing to sacrifice their limbs and their daughters to learn one of my supreme techniques!? Just… ugh, follow my instructions and learn the ability I tell you.”
Lu Fengxian facepalmed and groaned, wondering if he had picked the right apostle. Miaomiao seemed to be talented and smart, but he lacked wits.
Meanwhile, Miaomiao had a smug smile on his face. He glanced at the recent system notifications, which reported the talisman effects.
