Chapter 1788: That's It?
Karl: ???
(✡°᷄д°᷅) "Xiangzhi! Where's Xiangzhi? Get out here!"
Xiangzhi scurried out, her legs trembling as she looked at the three Transcendents before the Beacon Star Palace!
But as an employee of Sacred Star, she still had to come when the boss called!
And she'd even gotten her year-end bonus, now upgraded to Dao Heaven-level Xiangzhi!
(٥・᷄﹏・᷅) "Lord Karl? What do you need me for?"
Karl's face twisted with rage:
(¬益¬ꐦ) "I understood that old man's insult just now, but I didn't get the rest!"
"What did he mean by calling me Xizhilang? Translate for me!"
Xiangzhi's forehead beaded with sweat: (‧̣̥̇・᷄◡・᷅) "Lord Karl, are you sure you want to know?"
What kind of weird hobby was this?
"Just say it!"
Xiangzhi said weakly: (′◔~◔`) "Xizhilang is a brand of jelly. I heard you're going to be an astronaut, and they're happy to give you a big slap in the face—that kind of Xizhilang!"
Karl's eyes widened, practically exploding with rage!
(✡`益´) "What? What did you say? You dare insult me by calling me a jelly, a human food product? I'll—"
Xiangzhi felt like she was being suffocated by the pressure radiating from Karl!
Trembling, she said: (☍﹏⁰) "It... it was them who insulted you, not me. I was just translating!"
Then Mi Ye let out a scornful laugh:
(ꐦ͡°д͡°) "A little trash like you dares to develop Star Ruins? You're not even worthy of licking this queen's toes!"
"No culture! You deserve to be cursed! Horns on your head! Tiny Size! Pfft! Trash!"
At this, even Xiao Chuihuo and Odin burst out laughing. Mi Ye really had no filter!
As a woman, how could she say something like that in public?
Karl frowned. The look of contempt on Mi Ye's face made him feel extremely annoyed.
"What does 'Size' mean?"
Having just arrived at Lan Xing, unfamiliar with everything, Karl had no idea what they were insulting him with!
Even Xiangzhi was shocked. Was the Crimson Queen really that fierce?
But under pressure, she still had to explain to Karl.
However, she was too embarrassed to say it directly, so she leaned in and whispered in Karl's ear. Her face even turned red as she spoke.
(ノ)ಡ3ಡ)(•̌益•̑ꐦ)ˀ̣ˀ̣
Karl: !!!
"Dammit! She dares to say that about me? I want her dead! Dead!"
With that, he grabbed Xiangzhi by the neck and squeezed hard. Xiangzhi's eyes instantly rolled back, her face turning purple as she kicked wildly.
(꒪ͦ༥꒪ͦ|||) "She... she was the one who insulted you, why are you choking me? If you've got the guts, go choke her! What does this have to do with me?"
"Don't take your anger out on me! We're on the same side!"
Xiangzhi felt like her head was about to be ripped off!
Karl roared: "You're the one with a tiny Size! Want me to pull it out and scare you to death?"
Mi Ye wasn't backing down. She pulled out her phone and opened the camera:
[]٩(•́.̫•̀) "Come on, come on! Show it! I'll print it out as a poster and plaster it all over the world—then from Lan Xing to the Moon!"
"Go ahead if you're not ashamed! Besides, you're insulting the wrong person. I don't have one!"
Karl frowned even deeper and looked at Xiangzhi.
Xiangzhi rubbed her neck and nodded: "You really did get it wrong. She doesn't have one, and neither do I!"
By now, Karl was burning with rage. Xiao Chuihuo looked at him with disdain:
(・`口・´ꐦ) "If you're a real man, come out and fight! Don't hide behind the barrier like a turtle! You little chua chua!"
"I'll beat you to death!"
Karl gritted his teeth: "What does 'little chua chua' mean?"
Xiangzhi rubbed her choked neck, a glint in her eyes. You choked my neck? Lan Xing's culture is vast and profound—fooling an alien shouldn't be hard!
(‧̣̥̇•̆₃•̆) "Little chua chua means little idiot, like you're a ~%?…;#*'☆℃$ blah blah blah ~%?…"
At that moment, Xiangzhi spewed insults like beans pouring out of a can. The more she cursed, the more excited she got, venting all the resentment she'd built up working at Sacred Star!
Karl's expression grew darker, the temperature around him dropping sharply!
(ꐦง°᷄皿°᷅)ง "Is that really what it means? Three short words carry so much meaning?"
Even Xiao Chuihuo and the others were stunned, watching Xiangzhi go all out with her rant!
We didn't know those three words had so many meanings either, damn it!
Xiangzhi looked guilty: (٥′◔₃◔`) "That's... that's how it is. Lan Xing's culture is rich; one word having multiple meanings is normal!"
"They were the ones insulting you, not me, okay? I was just translating!"
Karl's forehead bulged with over a dozen veins. He yanked out his Judgment Sword!
٩(•̀益´•́ꐦ)۶ "You bunch of big chua chuas! If I don't chop one of you down today, how can I live up to my title as Star of the Multitude?!
"Domain Expansion: Absolute Zero • Stillness • Deep Blue Negative Zero!"
Karl charged out of the Beacon Star Palace, clearly ready to fight Xiao Chuihuo and the others!
Xiao Chuihuo laughed heartily: "Perfect! Let's all jump him together! Beat him to death!"
Odin's mouth twitched: (¬.̫¬) "If you want to beat him, go ahead yourself. I'm young, I'm not into that kind of thing!"
Karl roared: "Lain! Open the main cannon! Fire! Fire everything!"
Lain naturally followed Karl's orders. The outer armor of the metal sphere at the center of the Star Palace opened!
A thick, deep-blue cylindrical cannon barrel extended, frantically accumulating energy!
Xiao Chuihuo discreetly crushed a Jade Shatter Bead!
Karl had taken the bait. Now it was up to Jiangnan!
The next moment, the main cannon fired, and a dense, deep-red death ray dyed the sky!
...
Meanwhile, in the Kuji Desert!
Jiangnan's big hand swatted twice, landing on Bai Kou and Qian Benying's backsides!
(͡°͜ʖ͡°)✧
Both of them shuddered, their faces full of shame and anger!
(⑉˃̶﹏˂̶⑉)(⋟﹏⋞❅)
What the hell kind of "slap as signal" was that? Who slaps someone's ass as a signal?
They thought since they were sneaking up, a drumbeat would be discovered. But this? It was convenient enough!
He just wanted to feel the texture, didn't he?
Clearly, Xiao Chuihuo was making noise in the east, so it was time to strike in the west!
Qian Benying and Bai Kou charged out at the same time!
Bai Kou went straight for Li Mingshan! And Qian Benying, carrying a dull sack with excitement, rushed toward Vivian!
Their momentum naturally attracted the attention of Slash Brow Vi, but Li Mingshan was still fast asleep!
Seeing Bai Kou and Qian Benying coming, Slash Brow Vi bristled!
(。・ˇ口.ˇ・) "Damn! Found us? Transcendents? Li Mingshan, what the hell are you doing?"
"Even a Spatial System found us, and you didn't notice?"
"Hey! Li Mingshan! Wake the hell up! Stop sleeping!"
Li Mingshan jolted awake, his sunglasses askew. He held his head in discomfort.
(´-ι_-◟)୨ "Tsk... Damn it. Getting old, having a drink and dozing off? I didn't even feel the spatial fluctuations?"
"Transcendents? Hmph. They sure are willing to spend resources!"
As he spoke, Li Mingshan's gaze gradually turned cold, but confusion lingered in his eyes.
Qian Benying? Not Jiangnan?
A blast of extreme cold shot toward the pyramid peak like a brilliant silk ribbon!
"Li Mingshan! Die! Great Cold!"
Li Mingshan snorted coldly: "Hmph! You think that can kill me? You little girl is still too green!"
Bai Kou was delighted at that and intensified the cold!
In an instant, the entire pyramid was frozen, covered in a layer of white frost, adding a touch of coolness to the scorching Kuji Desert!
But Li Mingshan's figure had already vanished!
He appeared behind Bai Kou, waving his hand!
"Realm Severance!"
A spatial wall descended instantly, slicing through Bai Kou's body, cutting her in two!
At the same time, a tens-of-thousands-meter-long gash was carved into the desert!
Even the frozen pyramid below was split open, revealing a corner of the metal hall hidden within!
Slash Brow Vi: !!!
(งᵒ̌皿.ᵒ̌)ง "Take it easy! Don't damage it!"
Li Mingshan looked disgusted:
(¬益¬◟) "This is a Transcendent. Not so easy to deal with! I can't afford to hold back!"
"Just do your job!"
The Bai Kou cut in half turned into a blizzard of snow, then reformed into human shape!
"You will pay for what you've done! Domain Expansion: Extreme Cold Snow Country!"
Li Mingshan's expression shifted: "Damn it! Spatial Sphere!"
In an instant, a spherical barrier formed, separating Li Mingshan from the outside space to resist the erosion of the Extreme Cold Snow Country!
But no one noticed that the logo on the dull sack hanging from Bai Kou's waist had lit up!
When Bai Kou called Li Mingshan's name earlier, he had answered!
Meanwhile, the blonde delinquent Qian Benying showed no fear, charging straight at Slash Brow Vi!
As she ran, she cursed:
レ(°᷄д°᷅ꐦ;)ヘ "So you're the one called Vivian?"
Slash Brow Vi sneered: "And what of it? Just a Star Glory level! Even a Spatial System can't threaten me!"
"Sorry! You picked the wrong opponent!"
With that, her spiritual pressure surged, the aura of a Dao Heaven Seven Star exploding forth!
But the next moment, the dull sack Qian Benying was carrying suddenly disappeared!
In its place was a one-yuan coin!
This was Jiangnan's Spatial Swap!
Within a hundred-thousand-meter range, marked objects could swap with each other!
The swapped sack suddenly appeared behind Slash Brow Vi!
The sack opened without a word and went straight for her head!
Slash Brow Vi: !!!
Damn! How did the sack fly over by itself?
No! That wasn't right!
There weren't two people coming? There were three?
How the hell couldn't she sense any presence at all? When she looked, there was nothing!
Someone got that close without her noticing—how was that possible?
"Li—"
Before she could even finish her move or her words, the dull sack slammed down over her head at lightning speed!
The moment she was completely inside the sack, the opening tightened!
She was fully stuffed into the sack!
Jiangnan kicked the dull sack, and with a "bang," Slash Brow Vi felt a heart-wrenching pain in her backside!
(ง˃̶口˂̶)ง "Eee-yah!"
The whole sack was kicked into the air by Jiangnan and into Qian Benying's arms!
"Take it! Don't let her escape! I'm going in to steal the tower!"
But Qian Benying couldn't hear a thing!
She stood there dumbfounded, hugging the sack!
=͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇) "That... that's it?"
A Dao Heaven Seven Star powerhouse—she just called her name, the woman answered, and then she was stuffed into a sack?
Damn!
Did that take three seconds?
Southern Cherry teamwork: sneak attack, no fatigue?
