Chapter 237: Look Behind You

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Stepping into the yard, Great-Grandma went straight back to her room.

The company’s colleagues have come together to play Texas poker and Zha Jin Hua card game. This group of older uncles had more interest in gambling than going online or gaming.

It was rare that they could gather without having to go on business, thus, they had a great time playing.

Everyone was surprised to see Li Xianyu return safely.

“Hmm, the trouble magnet physique is ineffective now. We were prepared to play hardball with the major families.” Lady Killer had a cigarette in his mouth and he looked down and shuffled his cards around, carefully look at them.

“This shows that a trouble magnet physique will be suppressed by the authority of a Gokudo master. Now that Buddha Head is here, who dares to make trouble at this point?” King Kong carefully look at his own cards with the focus of other people looking at womens’ chests.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady stood by the table, and stared at it intently, pretending she didn’t care about Li Xianyu.

Unlike these heartless guys, Lightning King was a serious leader with morals. Li Xianyu’s safe return really caused him to feel relief.

“Everyone came happily, so we should leave safely. Please don’t cause any trouble.” Lightning King stared at Li Xianyu meaningfully.

“The Forum Conference is not an ordinary occasion. The major forces have gathered and there are a large number of experts. Once something goes wrong, it will become more troublesome. We are employees of Baoze, and we should set an example and prioritize stability first.”

The last sentence was almost directed towards Li Xianyu.

Lightning King had been a minister for so many years. He had seen all kinds of strange physiques. However, Li Xianyu’s trouble magnet physique was the most difficult to deal with.

It seemed that the matter would undergo an inevitable slide into the dark abyss whenever there was something he was involved in. This was particularly disturbing. Fortunately, the Forum Conference was in Lianghua Temple.

With the top master of the demon descendants community here, he specialized in suppressing all troublemakers. The trouble magnet physique was naturally suppressed too.

When he made eye contact with Lightning King, Li Xianyu avoided his gaze guiltily.

I’m sorry, Lightning King, I might do something a little out of the ordinary. Like screwing over a big shot of the Taoist sect to avenge my Mother Hua Yang. But trust me, it’s not a big problem.

Regarding Elder Hua Yang real thing, other than Li Xianyu’s harem, only Xia Xiaoxue, You Mengyu and Liu Kongchao knew about it. The three had been through life and death experiences with him...

They promised to keep it a secret, and will never breathe a word.

It was not that he didn’t believe in Lightning King and other colleagues. Some secrets cannot be hidden if more people knew about it.

Lightning King was shocked. “What are you guilty of?” Seeing his facial expression, Lightning King’s heart jumped.

“I’m not guilty, how am I guilty? I think Lightning King is right,” Li Xianyu said righteously.

“I’m glad you think so.” Lightning King looked at him in disbelief and said in a tone between that of a leader and his friend. “Young man, don’t keep thinking about violence and bloodshed, or making trouble. Think more about romance, it’s important to find a girlfriend.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady was right beside him, and Li Xianyu slung his arm around the long-legged beauty’s shoulder, “It’s alright, it’s okay for me.” (pun for not tight in Chinese)

Lady Killer coughed violently, laughing and coughing, as his face flushed.

Among the people present, only he could understand Li Xianyu’s pun, and could not help but think of the dirty pun in the virtual world to play a joke on Thunderbolt Battle Lady.

After a long time, Battle Lady will realize what it meant when she said she wasn’t tight then. She would definitely punch Li Xianyu by then.

“Why are you touching me?” She sensed that the colleagues had glanced at her meaningfully and slapped Li Xianyu’s arm away. “Slinging your arm around me, do you think we are so close?”

What a tsundere... Li Xianyu shrugged.

...

The next day, 8:30 A.M.

The monks got up at 5:30 A.M. and began to do morning classes at 6:00 A.M. The sound of scripture chanting were like buzzing of countless flies hovering in the air, and was especially annoying.

At 8:00 A.M., the morning class ended and the first match of the conference began at 8:30 A.M.

It was early but the audience was full of spectators, ready to watch the drama. Some people had woken up at the same time as the monks in order to grab a good seat. Holding their breakfast, they occupied the front row.

Yesterday’s competition decided the top eight, and today, will decide the top four within the top eight.

The battle for the top four was far superior to the battle for the top eight. In the eyes of the native Chinese people, today’s competition was about the dignity of the Chinese people.

In the top four, we need two of our own.

Originally, Dan Chenzi and Jie Se were very stable, but Jie Se had bad luck and his opponent was Eric. Li Xianyu, the biggest dark horse in this conference had Aoki Yui as her opponent.

Eric and Jie Se had a high chance of winning the championship, so this match was a highlight.

Everyone could see Aoki Yui’s superpower and it was truly a bug. Only Dan Chenzi and Jie Se who are monks could resist it. For someone like Li Xianyu, he would probably fail terribly.

So the two native contestants were shaky. Today’s highlights were their matches.

“I remember the first round is Dan Chenzi VS the British guy.”

“Dan Chenzi’s match has no suspense. The Englishman is no match for him. I look forward to the battle between Jie Se and Eric.”

“I look forward to the battle between Li Xianyu and Aoki Yui.”

“I look forward to seeing Aoki Yui win.”

“Haha, me too.”

Amid all the noisy chatter, it was time for the match to start. Rolling subtitles flashed Dan Chenzi and William Smith’s names. As the referee announced, Dan Chenzi and William Smith took the stage.

Dan Chenzi was dressed in plain blue Taoist robes, his long hair pinned simply with a hairpin. He was tall and handsome, his carefree and elegant temperament was too attractive to women.

Both him and Jie Se were the top duo of Buddhist and Taoist sects. It was rare that such a perfect CP had appeared in the history of Buddhism and Taoism. In terms of cultivation, looks and temperament, the two were extremely compatible.

His opponent, William Smith, was from England. He had a standard British look, and his facial features were crowded together. He had light blonde hair, light blue pupils and a hooked nose. It gave people a tight-lipped and serious aura

Of course, for most Chinese, foreigners look the same.

William wielded a narrow western sword in his hand.

The referee announced, “Go!”

After each party saluted, William drew out the narrow sword and stabbed towards Dan Chenzi’s throat. His movements looked a little funny to outsiders, as it was standard fencing moves. His body was slanted sideways as he struck with his right hand, his left hand stretched behind him.

Dan Chenzi twisted his wrist and wanted to hit the sword away with his palm. However, when his palm was about to make contact with the narrow sword, he suddenly stopped, and hurriedly went sideways to avoid.

The narrow sword narrowly missed his chest. Although it didn’t come into contact with Dan Chenzi, but his chest suddenly exploded with a mist of blood.

They had just fought, but he was hurt. It wasn’t a slight injury.

There was an uproar in the crowd.

“William Smith’s superpower is shock, didn’t Dan Chenzi watch the matches? He actually wanted to touch the opponent’s weapon with his hand?” Li Xianyu couldn’t understand.

Fortunately, he was aware of it and withdrew his hand in time, but he couldn’t avoid in time and got injured.

“He’s Dan Chenzi. He’s known for his nonchalance so he won’t pay attention to or analyze his opponents,” Sakura Yukinako explained.

She was eating a set of pancakes, her cheeks bulging. Having lost hundreds of thousands of dollars, Baoze’s employees started treating her as their own.

When they were playing cards every night, they contacted her via Li Xianyu: “We are missing a player, little sister, are you coming?”

Although she wasn’t the smartest, but there was nothing wrong with her IQ. There would not be a second time of giving money freely after it happened once.

Every time Sakurai Yukinako received a phone call from Li Xianyu, she would mutter in stilted Chinese angrily, “No, scram.”

“Dan Chenzi seems to have a mental problem. He was a child with attention disorders, and was often distracted.” Thunderbolt Battle Lady explained.

“Strangely enough, the Shangqing Sect values mental power cultivation the most and he was an outstanding disciple of the Shangqing Sect. He had long overcome his attention deficit but in fact, even when he was an adult, he was often distracted and couldn’t focus well. That’s how he got known for his nonchalance.”

“Now that you mention it, I remember now. Ever since Dan Chenzi took part in the competition, he had never used any Taoist techniques related to mental power,” Li Xianyu asked.

What the hell, this kid hasn’t been serious.

William Smith’s sword technique was so strong that the narrow sword was perfect for his shock power. The sword was as eerie as a poisonous snake. If it was a large sword, he couldn’t have executed such an eerie and gentle technique.

Dan Chenzi no longer looked nonchalant, as he focused on responding to William’s attacks. In five minutes, he had a few wounds on his body.

As he used his bare hands, William’s narrow sword was clearly a spiritual device and he was naturally at a disadvantage.

The usage of spiritual devices were not allowed in the Forum Conference. The correct interpretation of this rule is that life spiritual devices were included in this rule.

Some demon descendants could not do without their life spiritual devices, as their capabilities would be weakened severely. For example, Miyamoto Hideki without his swords was akin to a tiger with his teeth plucked out. So did William Smith, who had no weapons, the shock power would lose half of its impact.

The rule that the conference doesn’t allow the use of spiritual devices was to limit an overpowered player like Li Xianyu, who had four spiritual devices.

“Do you only know how to run?” Fifteen minutes into the fight, William Smith got angry.

Dan Chenzi looked extremely miserable, as he was bloody and had wounds all over his flesh. However, his foundation was not damaged. Since he could push Dan Chenzi to this point, William’s strength could be imagined.

The problem is that William has been fighting with high-intensity combat and his physical exertion was extremely fast. On the other hand, in spite of the embarrassment, Dan Chenzi looked energetic and wasn’t panting.

“Your attack is high but endurance is lacking,” Dan Chenzi said. “According to the law of conservation of energy, the more you attack, the more energy you expend. If you can’t end this battle quickly, you’ll lose. In this aspect, if Taoist sects claims to be second, no one would claim to be first.”

There were numerous factions in Taoist sects. The core ideas were different, but almost all Taoist factions have one thing in common: health!

They didn’t have sore waists nor pain in their legs, and were at the peak of health.

What the hell, energy conservation... William harrumphed, “I still have a best move.”

“Too late!” Dan Chenzi pointed behind him. “Look behind you.”
