499 Lu Bu’s Ignorance (1/2)
While the chaos was ongoing, Lu Bu, who was still carrying Zhang Min, noticed the expanding red lines on Zhang Min's skin.
Her body began to crack as if she would shatter like glasses at any moment.
Lu Bu frowned. He brought Zhang Min on the ground, so he could use his angelic power to heal her first.
He summoned all 7 souls and used every buffing abilities he had learned.
”Come on, heal!”
The souls place their hands on Zhang Min's body as they injected their life force. Lu Bu's lifespan was decreasing at a rapid rate, and Zhang Min's complexion got better.
However…
*PU*
Blood veins burst and the red lines reappeared. The injuries relapsed within a few seconds.
'Was that a coincidence? She should be in the middle of a relapsing session.'
As Lu Bu had experienced a few slight soul injuries in the past, he understood how these wounds reappeared on Zhang Min's body. Since the damaged souls always influenced the host's physical body, these wounds would continue to appear as long as the souls had not been treated.
The injuries could reemerge randomly. Sometimes, it relapsed once or twice a day. In the past, when Lu Bu's luck was bad, the injuries reappeared every minute.
Lu Bu thought that Zhang Min's relapse might be coincident, so he continued transferring his lifespan into her souls.
The red lines faded.
*PU*
Again, Zhang Min's wounds reemerged. She woke up from the pain and coughed a mouthful of blood. Her right hand disconnected with her right arm and disintegrated into glittering dust.
Lu Bu widened his eyes. For the first time, he panicked.
'What do I do to save her!? At this rate, she will die!'
He wanted to save Tong's daughter, but he ran out of ideas.

A female voice rang in Lu Bu's head. It was Lilim's voice.
”Who?” Lu Bu was not familiar with Lilim.
>
Lu Bu rejoiced. He did not care who this voice owner was. As long as she could save Zhang Min, he did not mind it, ”Yes. Tell me how!”
>
”What do you want, then? My lifespan?”
>
”That's it?”
>
”Only a vow? That's it?” Lu Bu frowned in disbelief, ”Sure.”
>
”That's simple… [I swear allegiance to you.]”
*RUMBLE*
As soon as Lu Bu finished his words, the ground below him shook. Semi-transparent chains emerged from the ground and entered his body.
A tattoo appeared on Lu Bu's back. It was Lilim's insignia, which she had acquired when she had awakened the 10th wing.
The insignia was a diamond crest with a demoness picture, who was sitting cross-leg on a pile of snakes.
”What's this?”
>
”… I did what you asked me to. Now, heal her.”
>
”… Okay.”

Above Ye city, two young angels ignored all potential threats from the local immortals and landed on a rooftop of a tall building.
A beautiful male angel and a rough 4-wing angel gazed at the city scenery, admiring the view of the developed town.
”Otherworlders are really something. Our old Jianye can't compare to this town,” Lu Xun sighed, impressed with the number of neatly arranged buildings and crowded road.
Lu Meng looked around and counted the people on the street below them. He stopped when it went over 1,000.
”Is this a business district? How many people are there?”
Lu Xun had a wry smile on his face, ”This should a common district or a peasant area. The real business district should be the glittering buildings over there.”
Lu Meng turned toward the direction where Lu Xun was pointing. Lines of 4-5 story buildings stood tall. Although their outward appearance looked like they were wooden buildings, Lu Meng and Lu Xun could notice the brick walls, which they rarely used to build houses.
They were taught that bricks were usually used for defensive walls as they were difficult to procure, and they often fell from the arranged wall. However, they were sturdier than the ordinary city wall, which was made from mud. This was the first time seeing bricks being used for tall buildings.
None of them understood the concept of concrete or cement, which glued these bricks together.
