Chapter 889 One More Person To Experience Death Together
Lu Ze shook his head. He walked out of the dao enlightenment room and went to the resting room, only to find Nangong Jing sitting alone as she immersed herself in drinking
He inched closer and sat next to Nangong Jing. Looking at her carefully, he discovered she had consumed excessive amounts of alcohol. Her face was blatantly flushed.
Nangong Jing turned her head to Lu Ze. Following such, she leaned against him as she voraciously gulped down a mouthful of booze.
Lu Ze asked, “Where are the other girls?”
He also didn’t encounter anyone in the kitchen as well.
Nangong Jing answered, “Perhaps they are still learning divine arts. I just recently came out.”
Lu Ze nodded.
Learning divine art was different from cultivating ordinarily. Failure to elicit insight or enlightenment would prolong the process. At this moment, Lu Ze and Nangong Jing looked at each other. Without a warning, the atmosphere changed.
The other girls were still cultivating.
‘Is it just the two of them right now?’
Both of their eyes slowly changed. Lu Ze smirked, harboring indecent thoughts. He hauled Nangong Jing and disappeared from the spot. “Wait… Ze!”
Only her shy and nervous voice echoed in the empty room.
The next morning, Nangong Jing slowly opened her eyes and met Lu Ze’s doting smile. She could not help but blush. Even so, she glared at him and bit the arm that was holding her. Hence, Lu Ze ended up gasping. “Stop! Stop! Jing Jing, are you actually going to kill your own husband?” Nangong Jing’s lips curled in disdain. He released his hand, only to snuggle into his embrace.
Lu Ze felt proud. He hugged her tightly for a while until she said, “Let’s get up. It has been a day.”
Lu Ze looked victorious as he stood up and gathered his things. He had taken out the bed given by Qiu Lin to accomplish the deed. He considered himself smart for being able to think ahead.
Nangong Jing made her way to the door furtively and opened it. Right outside, Lu Li, Alice, and Lin Ling carried out plenty of dishes from the room they converted into a kitchen.
All the girls looked over, causing them to catch Nangong Jing peeking out. The latter was exposed. When she was about to say something, Lu Ze worsened the situation. Because he smelled the food, he asked without consideration, “Jing Jing, did Alice and the other girls prepare some food?!”
He hadn’t eaten for a day. Naturally, he felt a bit hungry.
The girls: “???”
Nangong Jing and the other girls looked at each other. The atmosphere turned uncomfortable.
Since Nangong Jing was blocking the exit, Lu Ze patted her head in confusion. “Jing Jing, you can come out now. Why are you still standing here?”
Nangong Jing: “…”
She glared at Lu Ze and opened the door to its fullest extent in the end. Only then did Lu Ze see the three girls standing outside.
Lu Li wore a cheeky smile while Lin Ling’s and Alice’s eyes appeared discontent.
Lu Ze: “…”
‘Why are they standing outside the door?’
Lu Ze scratched his head. “What a coincidence! Alice, Lin Ling, and Li are outside too.” Lin Ling and Alice glared at Lu Ze before proceeding to the resting room. Meanwhile, Lu Li winked at Nangong Jing before following the others.
‘Mhm… tonight, Sister Jing would finally experience death too.’
Nangong Jing scratched her head as well. In the beginning, she was also one of the girls who strongly objected to this. But now, she ended up breaking her resolve and betraying the other girls. She could not help but feel guilty. Nangong Jing pushed Lu Ze away. “You deal with this…”
Lu Ze rolled his eyes. Still, he nodded. “Don’t worry, I’m here.”
He had been honing his consoling skill lately. He believed he was proficient at it.
The two went into the resting room as well. Inside, Qiuyue Hesha was already sitting on the couch. She immediately glanced at the awkward-looking Nangong Jing.
Nangong Jing returned the stare with a glare. ‘What is this fox demon looking at?’
Qiuyue Hesha smiled and looked away. She hoped T-Rex would still be as tough as she was currently later at night.
Lu Ze smiled and approached the aggrieved Lin Ling and Alice. When the two angry girls noticed him, they merely looked away. Despite these reactions, Lu Ze laughed it off and telepathically communicated, “Lin Ling, Alice, you two are the only ones left now. How about … tonight… We …?”
The two girls blushed swiftly. They looked at Lu Ze in disbelief.
‘He was really shameless! ‘How come he still has the audacity to suggest that?’
‘If he is a decent man, he should have done it in private at the very least!’
‘How could he openly offer it to the both of them?!’
Lin Ling and Alice were both annoyed and embarra.s.sed. ‘How could they agree to it?’
Lin Ling sneered, “You can let Alice go with you!”
Alice mumbled, “I think it’s better for Sister Lin Ling to go first…”
Lu Ze was overjoyed. They weren’t actually angry. He was simply too good at consoling girls.
As a consequence, Lin Ling and Alice had flushed faces while seated before the dining table.
After breakfast, they returned to their own rooms to cultivate.
Lu Ze sat on the cus.h.i.+on and used a level-9 star state red orb to work on his cultivation level. The spirit force in his cells was almost full again. At most, he could reach level six of the star state in a week. By then, his speed should be unmatched among level-2 star states with his newly-acquired perfectly mastered divine arts. Perhaps he could also attempt killing a level-9 star state super-beast?
While cultivating, the time flew by. Soon, it was midday. Lu Ze took a break so he could eat. Thereafter, he cultivated again until night. Likewise, when he finished his dinner, he returned to the dao enlightenment room.
He had perfected the mastery of Green Shadow Chant. Hence, he decided to learn Earth Shocking Blow next. However… he had to enter the Pocket Hunting Dimension before that.
As expected, Nangong Jing’s light orb appeared in the Pocket Hunting Dimension too. Lu Ze reached out for it with his mental force. After a flash, Nangong Jing appeared inside the dimension.
She was confused. When she saw Lu Ze, she questioned, “Ze, where is this place? Why am I here? Why are you here?”
Lu Ze patted her head and explained. Soon, she understood the situation and pointed at the four portals. “Ze, your G.o.d art is actually a world?”
Lu Ze nodded. “Well, it wouldn’t be wrong to put it that way…”
He really didn’t know the extent of the Pocket Hunting Dimension.
At the very least, he and the two other girls were usually killed by the super-bosses on the fourth map from time to time.
Nangong Jing’s mouth twitched. ‘How terrifying is he? Even so, isn’t he still her man?’
Nangong Jing grinned at the thought. “I have the keenest eyes!”
Lu Ze: “???”
“What did you say, Jing Jing?”
Nangong Jing chuckled. “Nothing.”
Following such, she thought of something and quickly lost her smile. “Ze, the fox demon and Li were here before me. Did they…”
Lu Ze: “…”
‘Why are women so sensitive?!’ He smiled. “Yes, let me drag them inside.”
When Qiuyue Hesha and Lu Li saw the curious Nangong Jing, they felt relieved and smiled. There would be another person who would die with them.
Nangong Jing saw their odd reactions and suddenly felt a cold sensation. Something seemed to be amiss.
“Fox demon, are you plotting something?”
Qiuyue Hesha said, “Jing Jing, we have been friends for so many years. Do you still see me as a villain?”
Nangong Jing wasn’t moved at all. She knew Qiuyue Hesha too well.
At this moment, Lu Li smiled. “Sister Jing, did Lu Ze tell you about needing to die to exit the dimension?”
Nangong Jing nodded.
