Keyboard Immortal-Chapter 2119: A Dizzy Queen
Chapter 2119: A Dizzy Queen
Zu An’s expression was a bit unnatural as he said, “Don’t worry, I can change the voice to be the same too.”
“Then why don’t you give it a try?” Shang Hongyu asked, suddenly getting an expectant look in her eyes.
Zu An chuckled in embarrassment, replying, “It’s not too convenient for me to do it now. Using that skill needs an appropriate price, so it can’t be used randomly."
Are you kidding me? If she found out that the Kawaii Waifu Voice Changer needed me to first pretend to be a woman to trick a man, wouldn’t she be rolling all over the ground in laughter?
If news of this got out, my image would be completely destroyed!
“Alright, since you’re saying so, then it should be fine.” Shang Hongyu didn’t ask too many questions. Many abilities in this world came with a cost. It would actually be weirder for him to show it to her. She continued, “Then the problem right now is that your words and actions still don’t resemble the Dragon King enough. I’ll teach you along the way, and with your wits and intelligence, I don’t think it’ll take long for you to be just like him."
Zu An frowned. “Do we really have to go through all that trouble?”
Right now, his focus was completely on finding the Divine Dragon Immortal Medicine as quickly as possible. As long as it was enough to fool the Tomb of Ten Thousand Dragons’ mechanisms and the Ocean races’ cultivators, that was already enough. Why would he ever bother properly learning about the Dragon King’s bearing and actions?
Shang Hongyu seemed to have guessed his thoughts. She stared at him and said, “I’ll help you obtain the Divine Dragon Immortal Medicine, and you help me get rid of the fake Dragon King. This should be a fair trade. You won’t just leave without taking responsibility, right?”
“Why are you making it sound so weird?” Zu An replied, feeling a bit wronged. “Besides, that Divine Dragon Immortal Medicine might not even exist, and the fake Dragon King is something that could even completely replace the real Dragon King. It doesn’t seem like a fair trade at all!”
“Are you really not at all curious about what those monsters want to do to the Ocean races? If they completely control the Ocean races, that’ll be a huge disaster for both the human and fiend sides.” Shang Hongyu didn’t get nervous. Her expression became one of amusement as she continued, “Besides, even if you don’t care about these things, can you ignore Liuyu?”
Zu An was speechless. Eventually, he said, “You win. But if these two things end up clashing with each other, I'll look for the Divine Dragon Immortal Medicine first.”
Who said this woman was a good and innocent person? Her skill in manipulating people is top-notch!
“That’s fine,” Shang Hongyu replied. When she heard him agree, she felt her entire body ease up.
Zu An got up and asked, “Where are you going next?”
“I was only going to look for some information here, then look for you on the fiend and human sides. I didn’t expect the heavens to deliver you right to me. There’s naturally no reason for me to go over there now, so we can just travel through the great sea.” Shang Hongyu also stood up.
“You were looking for me?” Zu An asked in surprise.
“Of course. Apart from you, who else could defeat that fake Dragon King? Besides, you have that that level of friendship with Liuyu, so it’d be a waste not to make use of that.” Shang Hongyu winked at him craftily.
Zu An was speechless. He said, “Your highness really is good at calculating.”
But why does it sound so weird coming out of my mouth?
“You don’t need to call me 'your highness' so politely. Do I have to call you 'regent' every time? Just call me Hongyu. Of course, you can call me big sis just like my little sister,” Shang Hongyu corrected him with a smile.
Zu An was a bit conflicted. He and Shang Liuyu didn’t really have anything further than friendship, so he couldn't bring himself to call her big sister. She said, “I’ll just call you Hongyu then. From now on, you can call me Ah Zu.”
“Ah... Ah Zu.” Shang Hongyu’s face heated up a bit. He'd actually just called her by name directly! Apart from the Dragon King and the seniors of the clan, no one addressed her like this. She'd actually wanted him to call her big sister, but it now seemed that his relationship with her little sister wasn’t as close as she had imagined. A bit of worry appeared between her brows.
Zu An stood by the edge of the cliff cave and gazed into the vast sea, asking, “How are we going to get to the Dragon Palace? Don’t we have to take that large ship by the dock?”
“If you can fly for a long time, there’s no need. We can go...” Shang Hongyu suddenly felt weakness overtake her midway through her sentence. Her feet buckled and she couldn't stand still anymore. She fell straight down from the cliff.
Fortunately, Zu An’s hand moved quickly and caught her. He asked, “What’s wrong?”
While supporting her, he sent a wave of ki into her body. At the same time, he examined her condition.
Yeah, she’s definitely suffered serious internal damage. This was most likely an injury inflicted by the Dragon King’s subordinates when she was trying to escape.
She's been trying to avoid the arrest order and pursuit the whole time, so she’s always been too tense. She probably didn’t have time to even rest.
He carried Shang Hongyu to the bed and sent in ki to treat her injuries while feeding her some treatment medicine.
When she felt something foreign being fed into her mouth, Shang Hongyu woke up in alarm. But when she saw that it was Zu An, she sighed in relief.
Zu An then lowered her and said, “You should focus on treating your injuries and get some good rest. I’ll watch our surroundings. You don’t have to worry about any enemies that are looking for you.”
When she heard what he said, Shang Hongyu felt a mysterious sense of comfort. After all, the Ocean races seemed to have collectively gone mad after the fake Dragon King gave the arrest order. In addition to the government soldiers, there were countless warriors out in the open too. Even the Fiend races and humans had many people who had rushed over for the sake of the generous reward. That was why she had been forced to run and hide every day, often only just finding a place to stop over before the enemy would catch up again. Then, she could only change to another location.
After a long time of that, her body was indeed already pushed to the limit. After she met Zu An, her excess of tension had unwound like a taut string that slackened. Now, she could no longer endure the fatigue.
She already felt a bit more relaxed, however. After circling her own internal energy, she suddenly opened her eyes and asked, “Wait, why aren’t you helping me treat my injuries?”
Zu An's exuberant power was something she could clearly sense even when she was unconscious. There was still some of his energy left inside her. If he continued to help her, she'd be able to recover even faster.
Zu An’s expression became strange as he said. “My ki is a bit special. It’s not really appropriate for me to use it on you.”
“Why? Don’t tell me that you're still worrying about your human side’s culture of keeping distance between men and women?” Shang Hongyu grinned. “I’m the woman, and yet even I’m not worried, so what are you worried about? Don’t worry, I won’t tell Liuyu. Also, even if she found out, she wouldn’t say anything.”
“It really isn’t appropriate...” Zu An chuckled. Ever since the Gold Phoenix ability had merged with his Primordial Origin Sutra, it would always stimulate someone's lust whenever he used his ki to treat them. If he only sent in a bit of ki to help a seriously wounded individual to gradually recover, it was fine, but if it penetrated deeply into their injuries, it was easy for other things to happen.
“Why are you being so stingy? What is so inappropriate about it?” Shang Hongyu didn’t understand. “I’m in a hurry to recover and deal with the following situation. Even if there’s an issue, I can take it.”
Zu An was really left helpless here. He felt as if he couldn't really explain with words, so he moved closer and prodded her body with his finger. Then, he used the Primordial Origin Sutra.
Shang Hongyu felt a warm stream of force enter her, and it quickly flowed to every part of her body. Many areas of pain eased up.
“Hm? This treatment of yours is quite effective, so why did you keep beating around the bush... Mmm, ah~” Her entire body trembled midway through her sentence. An embarrassing moan couldn't help but emerge from her mouth. She clutched her mouth in alarm. Her beautiful face immediately became entirely red, and she glowered at him. “What... What the hell are you doing?!”
You have successfully trolled Shang Hongyu for +3 +3 +3...
Zu An was quite surprised that she only gave him so few Rage points. But he still retracted his finger and shrugged. “You now know why I wasn’t treating your injuries, right?”
Shang Hongyu was stunned, but she finally realized something. Her eyes widened as she said, “You’re saying that your treatment... will provoke a woman’s... passion?”
“Maybe... Something like that,” Zu An said, a bit embarrassed. This skill of his really wasn’t all that decent. He always felt a bit embarrassed talking about it.
Shang Hongyu’s expression changed between anger and fright. She harrumphed and said, “Gross!”
That feeling just now was just too provocative! She was feeling a bit dizzy even now.
Zu An was speechless. He was now feeling a bit wronged, and replied, “I said that I couldn't treat you, right? You just had to keep pestering me to do it.”
But just then, Shang Hongyu giggled. “Just what kind of stuff do you study normally? No wonder you have so many sweethearts around you.”
“Didn’t you call me a pure and innocent little boy just not too long ago?” Zu An retorted in annoyance.
“That was before I knew about this ability of yours.” Shang Hongyu found it more and more amusing. “Your skill really is good for taking advantage of women.”
Zu An grew serious and said, “My lovers and I all share mutual affinity. I've never used this skill to do anything dishonest.”
“Oh my, big sis was joking around with you. Look at how nervous you’re getting.” The entire cave echoed with Shang Hongyu’s laughter. “I get it, you’re a complete gentleman. But I really can’t have you help me from now on.”
She actually even had the strange thought of just letting him treat her and be done with it. Either way, she had a clear conscience, and his relationship with Liuyu was special. He also seemed like a proper gentleman. Those random thoughts would probably be under control.
But in the end, she gave up on that thought. A single mistake and there could be no going back. Moreover, even if they could hold it in, if her embarrassing behavior ended up being fully displayed in front of him, how was she going to face him in the future?
Hmph, this guy’s skill really is despicable. He’s like a walking aphrodisiac. I’ll have to warn little sis to be more careful. She absolutely can't accidentally fall for these tricks.
Zu An walked to the entrance of the cave and sat down. He faced the great sea and had his back to her, saying, “You should focus on treating your injuries and getting rest. I’ll be on watch from here.”
When she saw his broad back, Shang Hongyu felt warm inside. “You can come a bit closer, you know? The wind is really strong outside.”
“It’s fine. With my current cultivation, I don’t get affected by the cold. A bit of wind won’t do much.” Zu An had already closed his eyes. He had also been traveling day and night. It had been a long time since he got any rest.
“Thank you~” Shang Hongyu gave him a long look. Then, she began to transfer her internal energy to digest the medicine she'd just taken. When she sensed the endless medicinal strength, she was full of amazement. When she left, she was in such a hurry that she'd already used up the small amount of medicine she had with her.
His medicine is quite good, top-tier even by the standards of the Ocean races. I’ll have to ask him about it when there’s a chance later.
Hmm, but it is a bit worse than the ki he used to treat my injuries earlier.
She recalled that warm feeling that flooded her entire body as soon as his energy entered her. It had felt as if every single cell in her body was cheering.
Hmph, his women really are blessed. They can just enjoy his treatment without any worries at all.
When she thought of that, her cheeks suddenly became red. Her breathing also became a bit heavy. She opened her eyes in fright.
Shang Hongyu, Shang Hongyu, didn’t you just let him do it once, and yet you’re already like this?
“What’s wrong?” Even though Zu An didn’t move, he could still sense the strangeness that was happening to her.
“No... Nothing.” Shang Hongyu panicked a bit. If he found out about what she was thinking, perhaps she would just die from embarrassment.
Still, she was the Ocean races' queen, someone who had experienced many things. She quickly calmed down and removed the random thoughts on her mind. She began to seriously treat her injuries.
...
After some time had passed, the stars in the sky started to fall. The sea in the horizon was dyed in a faint yellow glow.
Shang Hongyu opened her eyes, then got up and walked to Zu An’s side. She sighed in amazement and said, “I didn’t expect it to already be sunrise.”
“How are your injuries?” Zu An asked.
“Much better. They’ve at least stabilized. If I take some time to adjust my internal energy each day, I should gradually recover,” Shang Hongyu replied. As she gazed into the sea, she was a bit absentminded.
Zu An sighed in amazement.
As expected of the Ocean races' queen. Both her cultivation and aptitude are first rate. She was able to recover from such serious injuries much faster than I expected.
Zu An noticed that longing expression in her eyes and was stunned. “What are you looking at?”
“I miss the sea,” Shang Hongyu said, a bit embarrassed. “There's a serious issue with my injuries. If I just use my cultivation like this, the effects are actually much worse than usual.”
“What?” Zu An frowned. He needed her to recover sooner so he could then go looking for the Divine Dragon Immortal Medicine.
“Our Mermaid race's bodies are a bit different. We can't leave the water for too long, or else we gradually grow weak. Recovering from injuries naturally also becomes a much more difficult process,” Shang Hongyu replied.
Zu An finally understood why there was such a longing in her eyes when she looked at the sea. No wonder Shang Liuyu had always had a large swimming pool in her courtyard. So it was because of her constitution.
“Then can’t you just jump into the sea and swim around for a bit? The sea is so large, we should be able to find a place with no one there, right?” Zu An asked in confusion.
“I could find a place without anyone, but if I reveal my original strength, it would be hard to conceal the Mermaid race’s aura. The fake Dragon King has a treasure that can sense Mermaid aura. His subordinates would soon catch up.” Shang Hongyu said in vexation, “The reason why the Yaksha Ocean Patrol was always on my tail was also because of that.”
Zu An thought to himself, No wonder the Yaksha Ocean Patrol covered in the black miasma were so accurate with their pursuit. It seems she couldn't hold it in anymore and went for a swim.
“It’s fine, I’ll help you,” Zu An said after thinking about it.
“How are you going to help me?” Shang Hongyu asked, stunned.
“I’ll help you conceal your aura, of course.” Zu An chuckled. He naturally couldn't let go of any chances to allow her to recover faster. Of course, he couldn't treat her personally.
“But...” Shang Hongyu suddenly stopped. Only now did she realize that this was someone at the very peak of the world. With him covering for her, there would naturally be no one who could find them.
“That’s great then. follow me!” Shang Hongyu flew toward the sea in a certain direction.
Zu An quickly followed her. Roughly an hour later, they arrived at a part of the sea with clear water. Compared to the sea by the restaurant, the water was so clear one could see the bottom, as if it was a gelatin dessert, and yet also like glass. It glistened under the sunlight.
“This is a good place. I already saw this place a while ago, but I never dared to come here.” Shang Hongyu looked as happy as a young child.
Zu An waved his hand, and a mysterious ki field surrounded everything within several miles. He said, "You can go in now. No one will be able to find you.”
When she saw the tangible ki barrier, Shang Hongyu clicked her tongue in wonder. Then, she asked with a smile, “Are you not going to turn around? I’m going to take everything off.”
