Chapter 491 Unexpected Gains (3k)
Looking at the black mist swirling all around, Su Jiu’s lips curled into a smile. She raised the loquat branch in her hand, just like Harry Potter, and lightly waved her magic staff, saying with a faint smile:
“Rise! Hailstorm!”
“Hailstorm? The poisonous mist can probably melt ordinary energy shields. Purely physical skills probably won’t work, right?”
“Big brother, that’s a demigod level hailstorm, do you think it’s warrior class?”
“No, this hailstorm seems to have some purifying power within it…”
As the words fell, under the bewildered gazes of everyone, a mass of swirling dark green clouds appeared in the sky, accompanied by specks of ice and sand. As it spun, the black mist couldn’t approach Su Jiu at all.
“This is…”
Hiding within the black mist, Yi’s face revealed a look of shock. His bloodshot eyes stared intently at the swirling clouds above, then he looked down and muttered, “Such rich purifying power…”
Thinking this, a look of disbelief spread across his face. He paused, then whispered, “She… is a Priest?”
As soon as he said this, he chuckled to himself. What Priest had an entire set of assassination skills, and skills that were so insidious and venomous?
Just as Yi was in a daze, Su Jiu’s body transformed into a black streak with a “bang” and charged towards him.
Her body, enveloped in purifying power, continued her previous assassination. Her speed was not only faster than before, but the poisonous mist had no effect on her whatsoever.
Moreover, a faint ice-attribute external qi emanated from her body, forming a domain about half a meter around her, making her attacks even fiercer than before.
“Clang clang—”
One blade fell, and before it was fully sheathed, another struck!
Su Jiu’s stance completely overpowering the other person made her appear somewhat majestic in everyone’s eyes. Even Filly clenched her fists, her expression filled with excitement. Although they came from different factions, their stances were mostly united when facing death.
Gnashng her yellow teeth and gripping her scythe, Yi was completely overwhelmed by a dark shadow. If this continued, he would definitely be worn down to death!
“Squeak! Spare my life, and I can give you the divine liquid.”
The black fuzz on his face trembled slightly. He hurriedly created distance and shouted, his tattered mage robe flapping in the air like two tattered rags, looking ridiculous and absurd.
“Divine liquid… If I kill you, won’t it be mine anyway?”
Su Jiu’s gaze swept over the small medicine bottle above Yi’s head. The movements of her hands did not slow down. The loquat branch in her hand danced cleverly, inflicting several sword wounds on Yi’s body again. However, due to her mental power being inferior to the opponent’s, her attacks were blocked every time, and she could only slowly chip away at his health bar.
The hidden sword “Moon Crescent” did not have the same powerful force as a direct slash. After all, she was drawing her sword at extreme speed and also blocking the opponent’s weapon. The actual power was about 70% of a direct slash.
She could only wear him down by injuring him through collisions.
“Boom, boom!”
Low colliding sounds continuously emanated from the battleground. In the end, due to the oppressive aura, only blurry black light figures of the two could be faintly seen. The intense air pressure made even those spectators tens of meters away feel short of breath.
As the battle entered its climax, many people held their hands in a sweat, watching the collision of the two light figures. At this point, both sides had almost completely unleashed their full power.
At this moment, even a slight hesitation in movement would likely allow the opponent to seize an opening and launch a decisive blow.
“Damn it, hurry up and buff the black skirt girl! We’re behind the Hark Gang, if she loses, we’re truly going to wait for death.”
“Let’s do it, brothers!”
“This is the first time fighting a War God, I’ll definitely brag about it while drinking when I get back!”
Some sensible Priests had already begun to provide buffs and healing to Su Jiu from afar, while some long-range skills were also shot towards Yi. When his movement speed was restricted by “Blood Surge,” more or less, skills inflicted small amounts of damage on Yi.
“Pfft—”
Under the combined force of their attacks, his body finally could not hold on. Yi had wounds almost everywhere on his body, with thick blood spurting out, blocking the circulation of his external qi.
Seeing this, a sharp glint flashed in Su Jiu’s eyes. Her body flickered again, and her combined sword technique slashed fiercely towards Yi. She only saw a flash of light like a hidden dragon.
“Clang!” The sound of metal clashing echoed again.
After blocking Su Jiu’s “Moon Crescent Dream,” his body heavily fell to the ground, his feet dragging two long marks. He quickly said again, “The divine liquid was bestowed upon me by our King, and it is not…”
But in the next second, Su Jiu suddenly descended from the sky. Her body was like a spinning top, her slightly peeling leather shoes wrapped in a layer of green ice spikes, directly kicking Yi over.
“Without me, you cannot use it…”
Looking at Yi lying on the ground, Su Jiu did not hesitate. She quickly stepped forward, using her knee to pin his neck, and with a terrified expression, stabbed down.
His entire head was pierced through, and the thick blood splattered onto the purifying aura surrounding Su Jiu, making a “hissing” sound.
“Holy crap! Success!”
Feeling the sensation of defeating a powerful enemy, those bystanders and students let out cheers. The thrilling battle before had truly captivated their hearts.
“Is this the divine liquid? I wonder what its function is.”
Listening to the celebratory sounds, Su Jiu leaned down and looked at the unrecognizable face, then pried open the medicine bottle with her fingernail, put it away, and prepared to clear a path outside.
“The people from the Hark Gang all ran away!”
But someone behind the crowd said, and the crowd began to rush backward, the crowded environment suddenly became like fish swimming out.
At this time, the dust in the control room also dispersed, and a petite figure slowly walked out. The qipao she wore had Chinese knots stained with a bit of blood, and she dragged a half-dead old man in coarse cloth. She size-d Su Jiu up and said with a faint smile:
“I blocked four demigods for you, two died, and there was an old thing close to War God level.”
After speaking, she threw the old man aside and came to Su Jiu’s side, pointing a finger at Yi’s corpse, and then a shower of petals appeared.
“This thing’s corpse also carries a lot of germs.”
The petals ground the corpse like a meat grinder. In just a moment, the corpse turned into meat paste, and Bai Zhi casually ignited it…
After dealing with Yi’s corpse, she slightly straightened her chest, which was close to B36, and tilted her head to look at Su Jiu’s ring, as if expecting something.
Seeing Bai Zhi’s expectant look, Su Jiu helplessly reached out and stroked her head, showing a funny expression, and asked, “I’ll buy you cake when we get back.”
“Hey! Who wants your cake…”
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi’s fur bristled. She dodged Su Jiu’s dirty hands, then touched her belly, which had already begun to show a curve, and said helplessly,
“Because of my promotion and the intense battle, she might be born early. The estimated time is within these few days. If there are no special circumstances, I want to return to Dragon Country to rest and prepare for childbirth.”
Looking at Bai Zhi’s belly, Su Jiu couldn’t quite understand why this curve would lead to childbirth, but she thought that since neither she nor Bai Zhi were normal people, it was normal for things to be strange.
“You go back to the country with peace of mind… Also, I just got a divine liquid, I don’t know if you can use it.”
Looking at her lower abdomen under the white fabric, Su Jiu thought for a moment, then took out the small blue bottle, grinned, and handed it over.
“This thing is somewhat like a mental power drug. My mental power is already equivalent to a mid-level War God, so it won’t help me much… Keep it for yourself.”
After glancing at the small blue bottle, her gaze lingered for a few seconds. Bai Zhi shook her head, then took out a handkerchief, lowered her head, and stepped forward to wipe Su Jiu’s cheek gently.
“Don’t always get injured. After I return to Dragon Country, if you encounter any difficulties, just call me.”
She grabbed Su Jiu’s hand again and gently wiped it, as if instructing her. She knew that Su Jiu liked to be strong, so she couldn’t let the child not see their “father”.
“Mhm.”
Su Jiu replied softly. She rarely saw the Little Flower Fairy like this and couldn’t understand why she was showing a parting attitude.
“Hoo…”
After receiving Su Jiu’s reply, Bai Zhi breathed a sigh of relief. Just as Su Jiu was lost in thought, a foot pushed forward, causing her body to stiffen completely.
As their hair brushed against each other, Bai Zhi bit her rather alluring, youthful lips. The movements of her hands seemed to tighten a bit, and she said with a trembling voice, “Seeing those Others again… I don’t want to wait for you with枇杷 anymore. I finally know why I had that dream, it wasn’t a dream…”
“It was the First Life waiting for someone! That time I got sick, my memories and illusions overlapped.”
Sensing her agitated attitude, Su Jiu was silent for a moment. She still reached out and patted her back, saying softly, “It will be fine. As the saying goes, good people die young, and bad people live forever. Do I look like a good person?”
Bai Zhi did not speak, just hugged her tighter.
Looking at Bai Zhi’s attitude, Su Jiu thought of Yi’s attitude and asked again, somewhat puzzled, “Yi’s attitude towards me was very strange, as if he knew me. I’m thinking, perhaps he met someone who looks very much like me.”
Bai Zhi’s First Life was like this too. Su Jiu had a sense of fated connection in her heart, but she was just a transmigrator, and the original Su Jiu was just a minor villainous supporting character…
Upon hearing Su Jiu’s words, Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment. She slowly let go of Su Jiu, and a thoughtful expression appeared in her eyes as she began to answer:
“In the fragmented memories of her First Life, her master, the Black Feather King, looked very much like you, but she was more heroic and not as… beautiful as you. This Yi must have met the Black Feather King, so his attitude towards you is different, right? After all, the Black Feather King seemed to have killed many Others…”
“Could I possibly be related to this Black Feather King?”
Upon hearing Bai Zhi’s answer, Su Jiu fell silent for a moment and said with a wry smile. This sense of fated connection returned. Could her body be a reincarnation of some mighty being?
Bai Zhi probably also liked the Black Feather King. She was just a coincidence…
However, according to the plot in the novel, it was just a normal monster-slaying, girl-chasing, level-up story! And in the original work, Su Jiu was like a small shrimp, just causing trouble every day.
She had nothing to do with the Black Feather King.
Seeing Su Jiu lost in thought, Bai Zhi seemed to guess something. She grabbed Su Jiu’s hand and looked at her. Her pupils, which were like little flowers, held a serious expression as she slowly said,
“You are you, not some damn Black Feather King. If one day you are no longer like yourself… I’ll give you a big slap!”
