350 Driving Safely (1/2)

Woosh!

Wang Lu's voice has just fallen but Aya's Caliburn has resolutely been unsheathed. This sharp sword was then pointed at Wang Lu. ”Who exactly are you?”

With that, without waiting for Wang Lu to answer, the sword immediately swoop down.

Wang Lu was shocked but managed to lift up his Sword of Mount Kun to block Aya's attack. He scolded, ”What the hell! Dead chef, you want to rebel? You don't even recognize your one and only repeat customer in Spirit Sword Mountain?”

Aya resentfully put down her Caliburn. ”I thought you were 'spirit occupied' by that guy. To a certain extent, you two are quite similar.”

”... You need to get your eyes tested.”

Aya still felt that it was unbelievable. Faceless One was someone that was really difficult to deal with and his whereabouts was strange and unpredictable. Not long ago, she even stabbed him in Dragon City with her Caliburn, yet she failed to eradicate him, not to mention capture him alive!

For Aya's suspicion, Wang Lu also has mixed feelings about it. ”Faceless One is indeed an exceptionally strong opponent. This time's breaking into the King's Treasure House seemed like a suicide mission, but actually, with the support from Golden King, I was actually confident of our success, so I strut forward proudly. But because of his appearance, several times all our plan nearly capsized. This guy's fighting will is really strong, truly one of a kind. After he was destroyed by Liu Li a moment ago, Faceless One was left without a body, and his spirit occupation of Liu Li has also disappeared. However, during this crisis, with what was left of his strength, he made a false counter charge, but his aim was to cast his spirit occupation on me.”

”What?”

Wang Lu said, ”At that time, the general outcome has already been decided, when normally, people's spirit was completely relaxed and I myself am seriously injured, and coupled with the previous ups and downs mood, it was indeed very easy for him to swoop in… It can be said that during the whole battle, the best time to make the move is precisely when the victory has just been decided.”

”He is indeed a cunning adversary,” Aya lamented. Although looking at the appearance of Wang Lu, he had probably properly resolved that final strike from Faceless One, however, listening to him mentioning about the situation just now, she could not help but feel tense.

”But, because that moment is the best time, not only he knows about it, I am also aware of it. I have been waiting for him for a long time, until finally at that time he took a bet on himself. Then there's nothing to say anymore, the remnant soul of Faceless One could not break the defense circle of my Non-Phase Method. After his soul almost scattered away after colliding with my defense, I took that chance to suppress him inside my Non-Phase Immortal Heart. So for the time being, he could be considered as my captive,” Wang Lu said and then shrugged, however, the truth was not that simple.

How could Faceless One make a pointless struggle? His last-minute counter-attack was exceptionally swift and fierce. If he had a little bit more power, he would've pierced Wang Lu's defense and successfully implemented the spirit occupation. It could be said that, in this battle, the most thrilling moment was in the very end.

However, no matter how thrilling that moment was, it was in the past. Although there was only a slight hurdle that separated Faceless One from succeeding, the result of that separation was worlds apart. Victory is victory, regardless of how thrilling it was.

The two were silent for a moment before Aya raised a question, ”What are you going to do with Faceless One?”

It happened that Wang Lu was currently thinking about this issue. Thus, he casually replied, ”Put him into a meat puppet and abuse him?”

”What?”

”Huh?” Wang Lu suddenly regained his senses. Remembering that Aya has always been upright, he changed his tone. ”I mean to influence him with justice and benevolence so that he could turn towards the right path.”

”...” Aya felt that Wang Lu was simply dismissive of her IQ.

Wang Lu sighed. ”To be honest, I am also very embarrassed. Whatever brutal methods of torturing that I can come up with, but compared to what he did, I feel like I am severely lacking in imagination.”

With that, Wang Lu shifted his eyes to the still unconscious Liu Li. Although the wound on her right hand has healed, her once slender fingers haven't regrown back—as a sword cultivator, fingers condition was a very important part of Liu Li, even a tiny bit of mistake in regrowing them was intolerable. Therefore, Bai Shixuan didn't dare to rashly apply her medical service, but just tried to stabilize her situation. She needed to carefully prepared for the treatment first until she was one hundred percent sure.

”Alas, the girl's slender hand had turned into that of Doraemon, it truly breaks people's heart!”

Feeling odd, Aya asked, ”What is Doraemon?”

Wang Lu was also startled. ”Hey, hey, while Liu Li is still injured, why are you more concerned about Doraemon? No wonder they said the Knight King has no human nature!”

Aya was simultaneously dumbfounded and ashamed.

Wang Lu sighed. ”I now plan to simply take him back to the sect and hand him to the Elders of the Heavenly Sword Hall. After all, they are seasoned people, and I believe with my Master's unremittingly low limit, she would make a great contribution.”

Thinking about the famous Spirit Sword Mountain's Fifth Elder, especially her abnormally low limit of perversion, Aya could not help but tremble.

”This Faceless One definitely hides so many secrets, so won't it be a pity if we just kill him right away? If we don't squeeze every bit of value out of him, I would feel sorry for all of my effort in dealing with him!”

”Yes, killing him straight would be too good for him.” Thinking about the past and recent enmity, Aya also has no sympathy towards him, so she seriously nodded her approval.

Wang Lu said, ”At present, I will try my best to keep him imprisoned. This guy's method is weird and changeable, if he managed to escape, all of the previous efforts would come to a naught.” Although only barely, he still earnestly operated his Non-Phase Method to stabilize his Immortal Heart.
