I Have A Martial Dao World-Chapter 400 - : 400. Holy Knight
Chapter 400: 400. Holy Knight
In myth, the Holy King of the Western Human Race now has only a wisp of Divine Soul left and must beseech the aid of others to reconstruct his body, which is akin to a phoenix fallen to the ground, less than a chicken.
But Fran still spoke with sharp eyes and an energetic spirit, coupled with a hint of commanding pride.
The confident way she held her head high and stuck out her chest, as if she had granted Lu Yao a great favor, was both amusing and laughable.

However, this young lady was a hero who resisted Vampires in ancient times, so she’s an ally.
And quite fateful at that, having demonstrated “Divine Manifestation” straight away and resolving Lu Yao’s urgent problem.
So he smiled and promised, “Don’t worry, I will help you reconstruct your body.”
Fran let out a long sigh of relief in her heart, her expression softened, showing a look of satisfaction as if teaching a promising child:
“From today on, you are my Knight! Let’s call you… Holy Knight! I am a generous king, and will not treat you unfairly~”
The innocent and bright appearance of the girl piqued Lu Yao’s curiosity, “How old are you?”
Fran thought about it and said, “14… Ah no, 15… um… 16 years old, that’s right~ It’s 16!”
Lu Yao: … Your age seems rather flexible.
Although the girl had a curvaceous figure, her face still bore a touch of childishness, clearly not yet matured, but her elegant and noble demeanor, along with her blond hair and blue eyes, made her seem more mature.
Lu Yao had a hunch—the first age she mentioned was the real one.
At that moment, Fran leaned closer, and with a sweet voice carrying a hint of command, she said:
“My Holy Knight, I am a bit hungry, go prepare two Baron-level Vampire Blood Cores and some of your Life Essence.”
“Life Essence? Is this what you mean?” Lu Yao passed over a strand of Innate True Qi; Fran quickly maneuvered the Lake Sword closer to absorb it.
“Yes, that’s it! The soul needs the nourishment of the body, your life essence makes me feel very comfortable.”
The True Qi poured continuously and the girl closed her eyes to enjoy it, her beautiful otherworldly face showing deep contentment.
After a few minutes, Lu Yao had consumed nearly half of his True Qi before he had fed her enough. “You really can eat quite a lot.”
Fran opened her eyes and said, “I just awakened, and my soul needs replenishment. Holy Knight, don’t be so stingy, I won’t short-change you. And don’t forget the two Blood Cores.”
“What do you want the Blood Cores for?”
“Dessert after meal.”
“…”
Lu Yao suddenly felt that agreeing to this girl might have been a mistake, but then he remembered that he was indeed not lacking in Blood Cores.
Not only had Fu Fangsheng given him many, but the Blood Cores obtained from annihilating the Coalition Forces of the Great Powers were also delivered by Left Duke’s people.
So through the Mind Resonance Item, he had his three sisters bring over some Blood Cores, and in passing, meet the new friend.
It wasn’t long before Li Pei and the Liao Family Sisters retrieved the Blood Cores from the storeroom and hurried over, light on their feet.
Seeing Fran, fairer than snow and as exquisite as a doll, the three girls were astonished.
Li Pei, with her bright and wise phoenix eyes, was the first to speak out, “The Lake Sword has developed a sword spirit!?”
“I am not a sword spirit.” Fran lifted the hem of her dress on both sides gently and bowed slightly, performing an elegant “curtsy.”
“I am Fran, a pleasure to meet all of you.”
The three girls also hurriedly curtsied and introduced themselves in turn.
The Liao Family Sisters’ eyes, black and white clearly defined, sparkled with curiosity.
Liao Qe took a step forward and said in a delicate voice, “Fran, are you that resistant to Vampires… the last Holy Emperor of the Western Human Race?”
I was killed in battle when the higher-ups of the Human Race had already surrendered to the Vampires, and the kingdom had also perished…” Fran nodded gently, “The Holy Emperor of the Human Race you speak of, should indeed be me.”
Liao Ya’s face showed admiration as she said:
“Your deeds have been censored in the West, strictly forbidden to be mentioned. Instead, they have been adapted into storybooks here and are widely circulated. My sister and I greatly admire your indomitable spirit as a warrior. In the face of adversity, that is exactly how we martial artists should act!”
“Storybooks?” Fran asked with intense curiosity, “What do they talk about? Can I have a look?”
“I happen to have one with me~ I’ll go get it for you~” Liao Qe always carried a few of her favorite books to flip through whenever she wanted, and this came in handy now. She hurried back to her room to get one.
While waiting, Li Pei and Liao Ya also took out a box containing Blood Cores, selecting two especially large ones for Fran.
Fran thanked them earnestly, then cheerfully ate them as if they were sugar beans.
Lu Yao pursed his lips; those two were clearly Viscount-level Blood Cores. It seemed that people who were cute and good-looking had advantages everywhere.

In less than a minute, Liao Qe returned bustlingly, holding a delicate picture album in her hand.
Fran expressed her thanks formally, “Thank you, Miss Liao Qe.”
Then, she used Mind Force to make the album float in front of her and began to flip through it.
The album was equivalent to an exceptionally beautiful comic book, with the author’s craftsmanship being very solid. Even the black-and-white colors had a heart-stirring artistic expressiveness.
A heroic and extraordinary young girl leading countless knights in resistance against the enslavement of vampires.
But even a hero could not stand against the plots and intrigues of the Blood Ancestor, only to die tragically from betrayal and besiegement.
The last page of the album depicted a sword sinking into a lake, with a tombstone at the bottom of the lake, and the epitaph read: Here lies the eternal Knight King.
“People believe— the King has not died; she will return to save the world once more,” Fran read softly, then closed the book. Her green eyes gazed vacantly at the sky, lost in thought.
After a while, she turned and said with a smile, “It’s mostly accurate, except the Sacred Lake at the end is where my mother rests, and that phrase was left for her.”
Listening, Liao Qe nodded repeatedly, then asked curiously, “So Fran, will you go back to Einheit to save your people? It’s been ruled by vampires for thousands of years, and everyone has to pay the Blood Tax.”
Fran was startled for a moment, then shook her head with a complex expression, “The Kingdom of Camelot has fallen, I don’t want to go back…”
This was clearly a case of unspeakable difficulties, but Li Pei found the opportunity to ask,
“Fran, Lu Yao mentioned that he can recreate a physical body for you? What realm are you from to have such formidable vitality?”
Fran replied, “I am the King of Knights, equivalent to your Golden Body Realm; moreover, my spirit has manifested in the material world, corresponding to Divine Manifestation.
But my vitality comes from my mother. She was a half-god-level powerhouse who underwent Thunder Baptism, and her descendants will inherit some of that might.”
The three girls expressed their amazement and then proceeded to chat animatedly, asking Fran many questions.
A hero from the storybooks had come into reality, and they were all very curious. Moreover, Fran was delicate and adorable, bright and breezy, and not hard to get along with. She had an aura of nobility and righteousness that put people at ease.
The soul does not lie, and Fran’s Divine Soul could release such a vibration, truly exemplifying her noble character.
The sisters had a delightful time interacting, and Fran even let Li Pei and the others touch her body, which, although felt very real, was but an illusory projection.
Looking at her refined features, Liao Qe said with a hint of regret,
“Ancient Great Powers could craft physical bodies from lotuses, just like Nezha. How will it work for you?”
Fran smiled bitterly, “A perfect body to bear one’s soul is the greatest gift from one’s parents, a unique existence in the world, and this matter is very difficult…”
~~~~~~~~~~
The girls chatted enthusiastically while Lu Yao practiced Soul Travel, beginning his attempt at ‘bringing to life.’
In the path of Spirit Refinement, watching numerous Secret Manuals and having many adventures is not as effective as having someone demonstrate it right before your eyes.
Normally, ‘bringing to life’ would take a lot of time.
But having witnessed how Fran did it, Lu Yao felt he could accomplish the task today.
