Chapter 401: 401, [Lu Xun, Lu Yu]
Chapter 401: [Lu Xun, Lu Yu]
Ghosts are a very strange thing. They are mad, bloodthirsty, chaotic, and idiotic…
If only they weren’t so difficult to control, they would make a decent air conditioner for the stifling summer days.
It’s already July, the hottest time of the year.
Even in the night, the temperature doesn’t drop much.
But after the emergence of the Ghosts Kings, and hundreds of ghosts prowling at night, the surroundings seemed a bit cooler.
However, the chilling Ghost Qi is harmful to the human body, so it’s not very suitable as an air conditioner.
Lu Xun, holding the sword sheath, moved in an instant.
He suddenly realized that the situation was worse than he had imagined.
He only expected a slightly higher level Ghost King to appear, but two popped out all at once!
He gathered the players to take care of the minor monsters, not to deal with the Ghost Kings.
In front of Level 50+ Ghost King, the players are just cannon fodder.
Specifically, if “The Sword Qi is Near” doesn’t make a move, Lu Xun and Ye Sui’an can’t handle two attacking Ghost Kings!
“A group of kings is an instant loss, I can’t bear it.” Lu Xun thought to himself.
However, he had no choice at this moment but to make a decision, as gobbling so many Experience Points could choke him.
Fortunately, his expectation was just to kill one Ghost King with the help of Ye Sui’an and try to get more than 70% of the Experience Points reward, so he didn’t feel too heartbroken.
“The Sword Qi is Near, cripple it, don’t kill it.” Lu Xun said to “The Sword Qi is Near.”
Although he had made up his mind, he still hoped to leech some Experience Points.
According to the game system, if “The Sword Qi is Near” wipes the monster off with an instant kill, he would get nothing. But if “Sword Qi near” cripples the monster, and he takes the kill, he could still get a small amount of Experience Points.
Of course, the game system would not give you all the Experience Points just because you gave the final blow.
It has its own judgment rules, if your damage on a monster is just a tiny bit, then when calculating the reward, you can only scrape a bit.
“Scraping is also nice.” Lu Xun thinks so anyway.
Having soup is better than facing the cold wind, right?
“The Sword Qi is Near”, upon hearing the words, made a very displeased sword hum.
You summon me just fine, but you still have so many requirements!
I have to do the work, but I also need to be mindful of the strength of my strikes, not allowing me to directly finish it off.

I, the prestigious “The Sword Qi is Near”, against the mere fifth realm ghost, if I don’t instantly kill it, wouldn’t it damage my prestige?
I’m not your sword. Why should I listen to you?
I really want to… Smack!
The black string on the sword sheath gave it a gentle smack, as if warning it.
“The Sword Qi is Near” let out a whimpering sword hum, and started to obediently get to work.
Of course, thanks to Lu Xun’s good word these days, the Sword Sheath’s attitude towards it has improved somewhat.
Although it is proud and tsundere, it accepts this favor in heart.
Next, “The Sword Qi is Near” seemed to be suspended in the air, not having moved at all. Yet, the Ghost King nearby with a hideous appearance had been sliced in half in the blink of an eye.
It was too fast, attacking and returning to its position in an instant, as if it had not moved.
Although it seemed inactive, the task had already been finished.
Lu Xun was watching dumbfounded as the blood bar of this Ghost King rapidly decreased, directly turned into a critical state.
At this moment, Ye Sui’an made his move.
A dazzling white light flashed, and his “Moon Emperor” was directly unsheathed, then lunged towards the Ghost King whose blood level was critical!
If I need to stay by Elder Lu’s side, I have to do more.” That was what Ye Sui’an was thinking.
Lu Xun’s face stiffened instantly, if it wasn’t for his image, he really wanted to kick Ye Sui’an, who was hanging in the air, away!
You bloody fool, what are you doing! Don’t touch my Experience Points!
He vanished from his spot instantly, although he acted after Ye Sui’an, he arrived at the Ghost King’s side a moment earlier.
The surging Sword Qi gushed out from the Sword Sheath, Lu Xun made a beautiful diagonal slash in the air. From above to below at a 45-degree angle, he let out several Sword Qi, then instantly tore the Ghost King in front of him into pieces!
More than a hundred Sword Qi combined, it’s like a flock of sword feathers, forming a wing.
This wing was hooked backwards, directly dispersing the Ghost King that had been split into two, and then, the sword feathers exploded in all directions, completely destroying the remaining Ghost Qi of the Ghost King.
By the time Ye Sui’an’s “Moon Emperor” arrived, all he could do was awkwardly stab at the air.
In order to ease the awkwardness, he grunted and stabbed a Level 32 ghost nearby.
“Ding! You have participated in the Ghost King’s killing, according to the system’s judgment, you have gained 350,000 Experience Points.” A prompt message popped up in front of Lu Xun.
“Scraping 350,000, Ghost King is indeed a Ghost King!” Lu Xun was overjoyed.
According to logic, if the Ghost King is not killed with absolutely overpowering force, it will split into lower-level ghosts after death.
This is — you can kill again!
Unfortunately, the power of “The Sword Qi is Near” is too dominant. How could there be much Ghost Qi left after that sword?
“It really is a disappointing Ghost King.” Lu Xun lamented in his heart.
Then, he looked towards the outside the city.
Without any surprise, the sand sculpture-like players should have already started the fight with another Ghost King.
Players are like this, if you dare to show your HP bar, they would even kill a god to show you!
Don’t worry about whether or not you can defeat them, just take your swing first!
Especially those who play games just for fun; they couldn’t care less.
Consequently, Lu Xun took advantage of the time and flew towards the outskirts of the city.
As for this remaining Ghost King, he planned to “consume” it all by himself. At most, he would let Ye Sui’an assist him a bit, but he planned to claim the main reward for himself.
You guys, as players, just kill some small ghosts and enjoy some soup. Don’t let those small ghosts distract me.
…
…
At this moment, chaos had descended outside of Frost Feather City.
There was no choice, the situation looked a bit like guild players grouping together to brush away an outdoor Boss.
This kind of situation is quite common in large guilds. Under normal circumstances, large guilds would even have a command personnel, responsible for controlling the overall situation.
Cai Jiangjiang, Lu Xun’s sword-serving child, is one of the best amongst them. She likes to play as a soft girl, but she has a great strategic sense! In terms of commanding group fights, she’s explosively good!
This was why, despite her own battle power not standing out, Lu Xun had chosen her at first sight.
She was evaluated as one of the top ten war tactic masters, and it was no joke.
In fact, it was necessary to coordinate when brushing an outdoor Boss. If so many people just erratically struck out, it would definitely lead to chaos, and even actually cause a counterproductive effect.
At this moment, chaos reigned outside Frost Feather City, because no one was commanding overall, and everyone was fighting their own battles.
The “One Night Fish and Dragon Dance”, after all, was a newly established small guild that hadn’t yet established strong cohesion among its members. Add in the lack of commanders, chaos was to be expected.
The Guild Master, Xiao Long Bao, wasn’t capable of giving commands, and neither was Vice Guild Master Lu Xiaoyu.
As we all know, many people, when they play games, are quite reckless.
Forget about being terrible at the game, they even want to command randomly.
Within this undistinguished guild, players like this also existed.
Some male players, wanting very much to show off in front of the girls, would bellow about commanding this or that, acting all high and mighty, managing only to make the situation even messier.
What was most disturbing at a time like this was that there were indeed reckless players thinking, “You trash commander, get out of my way, I can manage myself!”
And then, he indeed took command…
A comical scene took place. A party comprised of more than a hundred people ended up having six commanders.
Everything was in disorder!
Mournful wails of the slain mixed with curses created a scene that was both tumultuous and tragic.
The Ghost King was not something they could touch. Their foolish actions led the Ghost King to become stronger with each fight, mysteriously leveling up by one in the process!
It was originally level 51, and it suddenly jumped to level 52, becoming even more of a challenge.
“Isn’t this just messing around?” Xiao Long Bao was rendered speechless by the scene before him: “What kind of people did I recruit into this guild!”
“They’re all so active usually, but when it comes to the crucial moment, each one is unreliable. They’re totally incomparable to Lu…” Xiao Long Bao began, but quickly cut himself off.
That name, it was best not mentioned in front of Little Yu.
Like always, Lu Xiaoyu remained quiet, holding her longsword ready in a battle posture, but her heart ached for someone.
“If he was here, things wouldn’t be like this,” she thought.
The brother in her eyes was no less than a professional player.
While others spent money on games, her brother could make money no matter what game he played.
She remembered how he would often boast to her: “Little Yu, even though my operations are only second class, my consciousness is definitely top-tier. Did you see that move just now? Was it impressive? Were you dazzled by me?”
In reality, having a good sense of things was indeed the foundation of being a commander.
At this moment, thinking of him, Lu Xiaoyu felt a sharp pain in her heart.
He was her only family.
They were each other’s world!
Lu Xiaoyu’s eyes welled up with tears as she stared at the ferocious Ghost King while listening to the ghostly wails, feeling a surge of disorder in her heart.
Just at this moment, a flash of a sword light suddenly appeared before everyone’s eyes!
Several sword Qis swept forward in an extremely domineering manner, forcing the frenzied Ghost King back by several meters!
“Who!? Who is it?” This question popped into everyone’s head.
A man wearing a black robe and holding a black sword sheath appeared in front of the crowd.
The arrival of this man instantly ignited the emotions of the people present. The surrounding area immediately erupted in excitement!
Purple Palace! I can’t believe I ran into Purple Palace!
All of them were meeting Lu Xun for the first time in the game.
Just then, they only saw Lu Xun turning his head to look at some place.
And standing in the corner, Lu Xiaoyu was also looking at Lu Xun.
“Whoosh—” A gust of wind blew, lifting the black robe.
That night, the wind never stopped.
…
Today’s wind, it seems a little rowdy.
