So I Am A Demon Descendent!-Chapter 65: The Poem War
“What’s the problem?” asked Li Xianyu.
“They developed the game according to the script. Everything was normal, but with the developments, Long Aotian lost himself. He fell into a rhythmic, refreshing virtual world. He began to lose the ability to differentiate between the real world and the virtual world. He felt that the virtual world was the real world. He was the center of the world, the protagonist and Heaven’s blessed son. To put it another way, he ran amok.”
“Ah?” Li Xianyu’s face was confounded. “There’s even this kind of operation?”
“Yes, if we want to realize the virtual world game as epochal, we have to add phantom magic. Science and technology is not enough, we need metaphysics to make up for it. Hence, the spiritual awakener would also be lost in the illusion even if he was slightly careless.” The Lightning King nodded and continued, “You can’t blame him either. Long Aotian was mediocre and ordinary before awakening. He was a relatively autistic and pampered boy. He spent all his time in the 2-D world, fantasizing about a sister named Chunri Yeqiu, a wife named Younai, and a childhood sweetheart named Sanli. His room was full of 2-D merchandise like anime pillows. Such a person is more detached from the real world.”
Li Xianyu was speechless.
Qiu? After learning his hobbies, he was sure that they would not be able to vibe with each other.
Lightning King continued, “The play written by the big boss is very exciting. It has a very strong momentum and a strong refreshing plot. It’s called ‘Breaking the Dome of Heaven’. When Long Aotian constructed the virtual world, he involuntarily substituted himself for the protagonist, and then became irremediable. On the day of the incident, more than ten spiritual awakeners were affected. Only a few of them were determined enough to force themselves out of the virtual world. The others were trapped too deeply inside that they could not extricate themselves.”
Li Xianyu replied, “Ummm…”
So, this was the case. Lady Killer was trapped in a fantasy world. Fire Child, whom he had seen that day, had been rescued from the virtual world. However, the aftereffects of the illusion remained. After all, that world was a masterpiece of many Baoze experts.
“I told you earlier.” The door of the ward was pushed open as Thunderbolt Battle Lady and King Kong came in. The latter maintained the distance from the woman cautiously. Thunderbolt Battle Lady scoffed and said, “Long Aotian is not strong mentally. He keeps staring at me all day. He’s a lolicon. He can’t even stand even a little temptation. Yet, you appointed him as the head of the development team.”
Li Xianyu looked at them and said, “Why are you two here?”
Thunderbolt Battle Lady replied, “We’re here to look for San Wu. We’re going to go to the virtual world together. We’re going to try and wake Long Aotian up.”
“Aren’t you afraid of falling into the formation’s trap? San Wu doesn’t look like a spiritual awakener. How is she going to save Lady Killer?” Li Xianyu remarked as he continued, “And if San Wu can save Lady Killer, can she save the others as well?”
King Kong explained, “As the saying goes, the devil is born from the heart. The essence of the formation is to trap people in their own mind and persistent beliefs. But, two kinds of people won’t be affected. One is the monk who has washed his hands off secular affairs, and the other is the person whose mind is clear and pure. San Wu can be immune to this kind of mental shock. She has a heart of a virgin.”
Li Xianyu responded, “Ah?”
Heart of a virgin. So, if one is not a virgin, he or she is heartless?
Thunderbolt Battle Lady kicked out and retorted, “It’s the heart of a pure person… Bah, it’s the heart of a child, bastard.”
King Kong avoided her legs and turned away in disgust. “Don’t touch me. It’s disgusting.”
Lightning King looked at King Kong with pity in his eyes. “Lady Killer is a spiritual awakener. Although he is trapped in the virtual world, he will not lose his mind. So, he needs San Wu to go in and rescue him. The others are already deeply trapped and unable to extricate themselves. San Wu won’t be able to help them. The person that started it must end it. Long Aotian must be awakened.”
Li Xianyu raised his hand. “King! King! I volunteer as tribute.”
“All right.” After a little hesitation, he agreed.
“But I want to have a meal first. I’m starving,” he added.
“You have half an hour at most. Be quick.” Lightning King always gave preferential treatment to Li Xianyu. He did not dare to offend the war spirit in his family.
Thunderbolt Battle Lady and King Kong thought that Li Xianyu’s power was special, hence the preferential treatment.
Before going to the revolving restaurant for food, Li Xianyu went to the toilet first. Only the intensive care unit had an isolated toilet. Otherwise, he would have to go to the end of the corridor to attend nature’s call.
He met the injured Li Bai at the door of the public toilet. He was wrapped in white gauze and carried a crutch. He had not bathed for three days. His hair was greasy. Thanks to Li Xianyu’s blood and blood constitution, he had been transferred out of the intensive care unit.
“What a coincidence, Elder Li Bai,” Li Xianyu greeted him warmly.
Li Bai nodded in acknowledgement.
When they walked into the toilet side by side, Li Xianyu told him about his first victory in combat today, thanking Li Bai for the saliva trick he had taught him. Otherwise, he would have been beaten to death by the American.
Standing side by side in front of the urinals, Li Bai took a look and moved silently to the adjacent urinal.
He felt a little indignant. Li Bai roared, “A blue sky overhead, foot on both sides of the Yellow River.”
Li Xianyu, who was doing his business peacefully, shivered with fright.
Crazy fella. What Yellow River? You’re mad.
Li Bai looked at Li Xianyu provocatively. He seemed to be instigating a poem war.
Everyone wasn’t normal in this goddamned company. There were always weird people.
Li Xianyu pondered for a moment/ “The flying current goes down three thousand feet, through the Milky Way for nine days.”
Li Bai was a little stunned. Yes, he felt that he was on the losing end.
He farted.
Li Bai murmured for three seconds in a strong voice. “The yellow dragon comes out of the hole, bringing rain with it. The fart explodes, rattling the intestines.”
Li Xianyu had no intentions to fart at all. He was exhausted and meditated for a moment. He murmured back, “An iron rod goes up to the ninth sky, sweeping around the fairy palace with arrogance. It can grow big and small at will. It wants to compete with the gods for length. As the weapon is unleashed, the landscape changes.The gods and Buddhas look down. Erlai, 48,000 years old, looks through many small waists. Guan Yinlian sits on it, the queen bends over her waist, Nuwa’s face turns pale, while Xuannu takes off her clothes in glee.”
Li Bai’s face turned pale, incredibly pale.
I’ve lost, I’ve lost. I’ve lost comprehensively. Li Xianyu trembled and kept his “weapon” back into his trousers. He looked arrogant and said, “When things are over, hide yourself to protect your reputation.” He turned around and left.
He took the elevator to the top floor and gobbled up a meal. The revolving restaurant was open 24/7, serving up delicious food free of charge. He went downstairs to the equipment room on the 38th storey with a bulging stomach, before the appointed time.
The elevator door opened. The blonde Victoria appeared in front of him, looking graceful and sexy. They hit each other head-on.
It was a little awkward.
According to Chinese customs, it was preferable to ignore what had just happened.
After Victoria’s slight silence, she smiled at him and asked, “You’re here for dinner? How are the injuries?”
She spoke English at a fast speed. Li Xianyu, who was not specialized in English, was stunned and barely understood. He shook his head at once and said in broken English, “It’s all right. The wound has healed.”
Victoria was amazed. “Healing powers?”
Healing powers were rare and uncommon. There was nothing to hide. What should be concealed was that his healing powers could be used on outsiders. This ability was not possessed by self-healers.
Li Xianyu nodded in agreement. He did not feel very happy, as he was beaten up for no reason. Although he won in the end, Ryder had proclaimed that he had let him off. It was Li Xianyu who had taken the short end of the stick. Lightning King did not offer to seek justice for him. In order to maintain the dignity and friendly relations between both sides, some small characters had to be sacrificed. Besides, the Americans had initiated the alliance this time.
Victoria smiled and said, “I’m here to pack food for Ryder. He was too reckless earlier on. I’m sorry. He himself will be punished. When he recovers, I will let him apologise to you. In addition, after consulting with your company, the Association of Superpowered Beings will compensate you for the medical expenses of US$100,000. In addition, I will compensate you for another $100,000 USD personally, under my name.
Li Xianyu was totally dumbfounded. $200,000 USD?!
He could not believe the good fortune that ensued with the beating he took. Why would he still need to be a law enforcer? To hell with that shit. Does your family lack a punching bag? I’d gladly be one instead. Great-Grandma, we’ve turned our fortunes around.
Unfortunately, Great-Grandma was absent. There was no one to share the joy with.
The company is good. Lightning King is good. Long live the country. Li Xianyu’s smile widened gradually.
Victoria nodded to him with a smile, stepped out of the elevator and made a gesture to invite him inside.
Li Xianyu stepped into the elevator as the door closed slowly. He saw Victoria entering the revolving restaurant gracefully.
