Chapter 303: 303, Rise for Me! (Third update, seeking monthly tickets!)
When the prompt appeared before Lu Xun’s eyes, it confirmed his guess that he could use the Undying Fire to refine his body!
As per the rules, the Sword Cultivators who successfully navigate through the Moon in the Well can use the fire to refine a magical weapon.
Who would have thought that someone would cheat!
At this moment, Lu Xun was taking advantage of someone else’s celestial object under the guise of refinement.
Truly playing with fire!
Great Live Broadcast Technique I’ll refine myself before your very eyes.
At first, he just wanted to seize an opportunity and see if it would work. and to his surprise, it did!
Meanwhile, he had mixed feelings.
“So, I’ve really become a Magical Weapon Cultivator.”
But no matter what, it should help enhance his strength.
Only, the feeling of body refinement felt rather intoxicating…
For a fleeting moment, Lu Xun’s mind went blank.
It’s an extreme feeling that’s hard to describe or put into words.
He knew then that the reason the Sword Sheath had made that shameful movement upon the start of refinement was not because it was artificial and melodramatic, but because…it felt incredibly satisfying!
The next moment, Lu Xun fainted.
He was overwhelmed with exhilaration.
Ping Shanhai and Qian Zhengyi, who arrived at the scene later, looked at each other in the face of the floating Lu Xun.
The black sword sheath was already on the ground, clearly having returned to its original form.
It sat on the ground quietly, as if it had nothing to do with what had just occurred.
Lu XUN, on the other hand, was suspended in the air, with the Undying Fire covering his body, hoisting him up and constantly burning.
This peculiar situation was a first for Ping Shanhai and Qian Zhengyi.
They tried to remove the fire, but no matter what they did, there was no way to do it.
The Undying Fire could not be extinguished, nor removed when attached to a person.
But theoretically, it was harmless to the human body… theoretically…
At this moment, Ping Shanhai and Qian Zhengyi were genuinely panicked.
If something happened to Lu Xun right under their noses, it would essentially be a “diplomatic incident”!
Lu Xun’s status was too special, and his position in the Demon Sect was too high.
Moreover, the man backing him was no ordinary person…
Things could turn incredibly complicated.
Thankfully, from the current situation, Lu Xun’s breathing was steady and constant, his body showing no abnormalities, as if he were deeply asleep.
If it were not for the fire burning on his body and him floating in mid-air, he would have been no different from taking a nap.
Then, another problem emerged.
Even if the fire was harmless to Lu Xun, what would happen if it couldn’t be removed?
Would Lu Xun turn into a burning Fire Man?
If that’s the case, we can’t exactly imprison him. If he leaves, won’t he take the treasure, the Undying Fire, with him?
In the future, when our two Sword Sects refine swords, will we have to call him over to help light the fire?
Can we say to him: “Brother, pass it to me?”
But damn it, the Undying Fire is supposed to be our treasure!
Fortunately, things didn’t go to such ludicrous lengths. After being burnt in the air for a while, Lu Xun fell to the ground with a “thud”. novelbuddy.cσ๓
Ping Shanhai and Qian Zhengyi quickly went over, each grabbing an arm, and transferred their divine sense into him to examine his physical condition.
But the result was… they couldn’t figure anything out.
They looked at each other, both asking the other: what to do now?
In the end, it was Ping Shanhai who said: “I didn’t expect such an anomaly during refinement. Perhaps he harbours many secrets that we can’t unearth.
Why don’t I take him back to One Sword Mountain to recuperate first, while I inform the Demon Sect of this matter through a flying sword message.
Sigh, I don’t know when he’ll wake up.”
Qian Zhengyi also sighed and said: “Ever since Lu Xun arrived in our West State, strange things have been happening. It seems there’s nothing more we can do for now.”
Then the two of them left the place, taking Lu Xun and the Sword Sheath with them.
They couldn’t help but sigh in unison in their hearts.
“What a disaster.”
By the time Lu Xun woke up again, three days had already passed.
He opened his eyes and looked around the bamboo hut, seeing Ji Li looking at him with surprise and redness forming around her eyes.
“Lu Xun, you’re finally awake!” Ji Li hurried to help him sit up.
After sitting up, Lu Xun saw Ji Li with tears in her eyes, he said, “Why are you crying? Scared?”
Ji Li softly said, “Yes,” confirming that she really was frightened.
That day, after breaking through her cultivation base outside of the “Moon in the Well”, Lu Xun had already successfully completed his challenge and was refining his magical weapon in the secret chamber.
Then, Ping Shanhai and Qian Zhengyi both gasped in surprise: “This isn’t good!”
By the time they came out of the secret chamber, Lu Xun was unconscious.
Although he seemed fine when checked, the unexpected happening and him not waking up for days, how could Ji Li not worry?
She remembered when she was young her father who had weak martial arts skills got very sick and it took a long time for him to recover.
One day, she saw her mother kneeling before the Buddha, praying:
“Blessed Buddha, please let my husband recover soon. I am willing to exchange my life for his.”
Ji Li was still young at that time and didn’t fully understand this emotion, she was just a bit scared.
But now she knew that if something happened to Lu Xun, if she could exchange lives, she would definitely be willing.
Lu Xun looked at her and said with a gentle smile, “Stop crying, can you get me a glass of water?”
“Yes.” Ji Li wiped her tears and rushed to get Lu Xun some water.
She was already clumsy, and being flustered made it worse, and she almost knocked over the cup of water.
As some water had splashed out of the cup, before handing it to Lu Xun, she carefully wiped the water droplets from the cup.
Lu Xun took the cup, drained the water in one gulp, and Ji Li immediately asked, “Lu Xun, do you still want water?”
Lu Xun waved his hand and said: “No need.”
He then joked, “Alright, you no longer need to care for me. After all, you used to be the young lady of a large household, now you’re like a little maid. What’s all this about?”
“What?” Ji Li was startled and then obediently nodded, “Oh.”
She looked down, her little hands clasped the black skirt that was just splashed by tea, and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito buzzing, “But I want to do it…”
“What are you muttering?” Lu Xun just woke up, still a bit dazed and his five senses were not as sharp as usual, so he didn’t hear clearly.
“Nothing… Nothing.” Ji Li replied, lowering her head.
To be honest, she knew clearly about her feelings for Lu Xun.
She liked him.
Really liked him a lot.
But up until now, she had never clearly expressed this to Lu Xun.
To put it plainly, she had never confessed her feelings.
Because she was still scared to know the result.
Ji Li still remembered when her cousin got married, the house was filled with the Chinese character for happiness, “囍”.
She was young then and asked her mother what this character meant.
This really stumped her mother who never read much and was focused on martial arts practice.
But this question had been asked by her daughter, how could she appear incompetent in front of her adoring daughter!
Since she was young, she should be easy to deceive…
So she just made something up!
Enlightened by her own understanding, she explained to Ji Li, “Little Li’zi, look at this character for happiness. It’s made up of two ‘happy’ characters, which represent the mutual love between a husband and wife.”
“Yes, that’s correct! Exactly like that! Hahaha!” After that, she laughed at herself and said, “Didn’t expect that, did you Little Li’zi? Your mother is pretty amazing!”
And Ji Li believed her.
This conversation, Ji Li still remembered clearly.
Because of it, she understood that the ideal relationship between two people is mutual affection. One-sided love is not simply enough.
This is why she has never expressed herself clearly to Lu Xun.
Double happiness is what makes happiness.
She fears that she only brought happiness.
