Chapter 2 (1/2)

—

Shu Jing gulped down his saliva and wiped off the leftover snot from his nose, his heart nearly stopped by the girl’s bold declaration.

Wait wait wait, Majestic Star “Panther Head” Lin Chong? Did he mishear her?

“Beg your pardon?” Shu Jing asked when woke up from his stupor.

“From now on I am your woman.”

Lin Chong’s face grew redder as she infused all her embarrassment and hatred into her voice and repeat herself. If not because of the Star Duel Covenant preventing her from harming him, she would have already split this man who was feigning innocence in half.

Shu Jing quickly clarified.

“No, what you said before that. Lin Chong?”

“That’s right, tis’ I, Majestic Star “Panther Head” Lin Chong.” Lin Chong lowered her voice and retrieved the serpent spear.

Shu Jing massaged his throat as he stare at the strange girl in front of him.

“Really? Some of my otaku comrades also love that series.”

“What nonsense is master spouting?”

Lin Chong frowned, is her master crazy or is he an idiot? Hearing her famous title and yet he remained indifferent.

“This time was truly an accident, but well, even if I have to take responsibility for seeing you naked, it was worth it.” Shu Jing smiled lewdly. Looking closely at the girl in front of him, her brows were fine as leaf, eyes as brilliant as stars, her figure heroic, if she was placed in the ancient time she would definitely look the part of an army general.

“Master, please be more serious!” Lin Chong coldly spoke.

Seeing that she was not in the mood for jokes, his smile slowly disappears. Shu Jing asks:

“Where is this area? Are we in Inner Mongolia?”

“Clear Wilderness Highland in Thousand Mount Kingdom.” Lin Chong replied with a rigid expression as always.

Clear Wilderness Highland? Thousand Mount Kingdom? These two places never existed throughout history as far as he can remember. Shu Jing, sensing a bad feeling, spat out almost incomprehensibly: “Year?”

“Star Sight year 975!”

What the hell?

“What world is this?” Shu Jing painfully clutched his head.

“Liangshan Continent!” At this point, Lin Chong could no longer endure it and laughed coldly: “Master is asking questions that even toddlers can answer, do you think that I am a fool?”

Shu Jing look up at the sky, it was clearly daytime, and yet he could see over a hundred stars shining, even further in the distance there was even a massive pillar cutting straight through the cloud from the sea standing nonchalantly, which was an impossibility in the world that he knew.

World travelling?

Before, Shu Jing did hear his friends joked about it but he would never imagine that one day he himself would be in this situation.

“Lin Chong wishes to know what to call master?” Lin Chong asked.

“You can call me Shu Jing, no need for master this or that. Even though it sounds quite gratifying, but the implications aren’t very appropriate, I am merely a soldier. Ha ha ha!”

“Even though Lin Chong also does not enjoy calling you master, since we have signed a Star Duel Covenant, I will also abandon my prejudices.” Lin Chong spoke against her will.

“What is the Star Duel Covenant?” Shu Jing eyes were wide opened: “Is it something to do with Star Wars?”

Lin Chong’s face sank: “Please don’t tell me, Master also aren’t aware of Star Masters and Star Maidens?”

Shu Jing spread his hands and shrugged — exactly as Lin Chong guessed.

Lin Chong almost made her gums bleed grinding her teeth. She was the famous Majestic Star Lin Chong, in the end why did she end up contracting with an idiot who doesn’t even know anything? What kind of farce is this!

Feeling that this man still doesn’t fully comprehend the gravity of the current situation, Lin Chong attempts to explain:

“Star Duels are the most important event in the entire Liangshan continent. Every 108 years, 108 brightest stars will rise up along with their representative 108 maidens, each of them possessing earth shattering strength and abilities.

All Star Maiden are able to sign a Star Duel Covenant with a star cultivator. The contractor will then become their master for the rest of their lives. The cultivators who have signed the contracts are called Star Masters in the Liangshan continent.

“When the Star Masters and their contracted Star Maiden emerged as the final victor, they will be able to meet the Liangshan Maiden.”

“Why are Star Duel Covenants made?” Shu Jing asked.

“Of course for battles.”

“What do you fight for?”

“For your wish, of course.”

Legend has it that once there are only one final star left in the sky, the mother and creator of these stars – Liangshan Maiden, will descend and grant the winner their wish.
