Chapter 14: Setting off for Haicheng, The Domineering Angel Falls in Love with Me, Riot Period Ascension
"Zhao Xuanzhen, let's go!"
Early in the morning, just as the sky was getting light, Zhao Xuanzhen's door was knocked on with a thud-thud-thud. The girl's crisp and high-spirited tone showed her happy mood at the moment.
"Coming, coming."
Zhao Xuanzhen opened the door, and his clear ink-colored eyes reflected the pretty Xiang Xiang Naer, containing a hint of helplessness.
"We're traveling, why aren't you excited at all!" Xiang Xiang Naer put her hands on her hips, looking like she was hating iron for not becoming steel.
"We've been cultivating hard for four years, getting up early and working late every day, going to class six and a half days a week, learning second professions, grinding in the Spirit Ascension Platform, being ravaged by the True Illusionary Realm... Aunt Leng finally rewarded us with a vacation to Haicheng, you have to be positive!
I checked the strategy on the Soul Net for half the night last night. Haicheng is worthy of being a coastal tourist city, with sunshine, beaches, and waves, and there is so much special food!"
Xiang Xiang Naer still hadn't changed her nature as a little foodie. When she mentioned food, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva, and then her big silver eyes looked at Zhao Xuanzhen with a blink, looking forward to it:
"By the way, look at me, what's different today?"
"Oh?"
Zhao Xuanzhen looked at Xiang Xiang Naer and easily discovered the girl's changes. It was probably because of the trip, so Xiang Xiang Naer dressed up specially.
A pure white waist-cinching skirt, white-gold crystal shoes, and exquisite ornaments hanging on her long silver hair. Even Zhao Xuanzhen, who was used to Xiang Xiang Naer, had to admit that she was excessively beautiful today.
The peerless beauty that the Silver Dragon King's half-body was born with is completely incomparable to mortals. Any intelligent life seeing this girl would sigh that God is biased. Only bias can create this beauty that originates from the depths of the bloodline.
"Is it pretty?"
Xiang Xiang Naer captured the surprise in Zhao Xuanzhen's eyes and became even more arrogant.
"A little bit of beauty."
"Che! o(^`)o"
Xiang Xiang Naer snorted softly, pretending to be cold, but a comedian is destined to be unable to set up a cold persona. She accidentally couldn't hold it, and the upward curve of her lips betrayed the girl's inner joy.
"Charge, charge, charge, target Haicheng!"
Simply showing her cards and not pretending anymore, Xiang Xiang Naer wrapped her hands around Zhao Xuanzhen's arm and pulled him down to meet Leng Yaoju.
Leng Yaoju sent a soul guidance communication message to the two, meeting in an open area today. Zhao Xuanzhen and Xiang Xiang Naer took the elevator, walked out of the 108-story Spirit Tower, and saw a mature and charming figure from afar.
Lady Tianfeng changed into a black dress. Time never defeats a beauty. Her snow-smooth skin was breakable by a blow, her demeanor was generous and graceful, and her plump and slender figure was like finely carved, and a little more or a little less would destroy the perfect proportion of the whole.
"Teacher/Aunt Leng!"
The two waved at Leng Yaoju, and Leng Yaoju's smile instantly filled her crimson phoenix eyes.
"Aunt Leng, how are we going to Haicheng? Are we taking the soul guidance train?" Xiang Xiang Naer asked impatiently.
"Of course not." Leng Yaoju's voice was gentle, "There are many people and eyes on the soul guidance train, and the speed is slow. We have a better choice."
After speaking, she clapped her hands, and a black stream of light descended from the sky.
A black phoenix-shaped metal creation with a wingspan of over thirty meters. Zhao Xuanzhen and Xiang Xiang Naer looked up at the tall and majestic modern soul guidance technology product. Having broken through to the fourth rank in their second professions, they said in unison:
"Black-rank mecha!?"
"Black-rank mecha, Skyfire Phoenix." Leng Yaoju smiled faintly, "Come up, mecha is much faster than the soul guidance train."
Skyfire Phoenix was a black-rank mecha that Leng Yaoju made with her own hands when she was young. As her own strength soared, the black-rank mecha gradually couldn't keep up with her growth.
All along, Leng Yaoju had no idea of upgrading the Skyfire Phoenix. After all, the top-level red-rank mecha was only equivalent to a First-Class Battle Armor, and it couldn't intervene in the battle of a Limit Douluo who was a fourth-rank Battle Armor master.
Therefore, Leng Yaoju simply modified the Skyfire Phoenix into a flight vehicle. With two huge soul-forged metal turbines and an eye-catching phoenix shell, this black mecha was once called the symbol of Lady Tianfeng.
The three boarded the black-rank mecha. Leng Yaoju sat alone in the front cabin, acting as a driver for the two juniors, while Zhao Xuanzhen and Xiang Xiang Naer enjoyed the luxurious interior of the Skyfire Phoenix.
The Skyfire Phoenix was huge and belonged to the super-large mecha. The interior space was wider than the living room. The sofa and coffee table were piled with snacks and drinks. The metal floor was covered with a golden-red Flame Lion King blanket. Stepping on it would not make any sound, and the warmth rushed directly to the top of the head from the feet.
The Skyfire Phoenix tore through the sky, and the crimson tail flame from the nozzle burst out, plowing a long-lasting gully in the sea of clouds. The whistling sound when taking off was very much like the cry of a phoenix reborn from the fire.
"Comfortable~ I love vacations so much!"
Xiang Xiang Naer lay on the sofa and grabbed a soft pillow into her arms.
It takes several hours to fly from the Spirit Tower headquarters to Haicheng. Since it was a rare vacation time, neither of them planned to cultivate during the journey, and each opened their soul guidance communicator to log on to the Soul Net.
Zhao Xuanzhen usually only used the Soul Net to browse news, while Xiang Xiang Naer was involved in everything. She saw a hot push and said excitedly:
"Zhao Xuanzhen, I found a new novel, come and take a look!"
"You changed to a new book?"
Zhao Xuanzhen had already put away all the emotional fluctuations of last night, sat beside Xiang Xiang Naer, and was as stable as a lake, saying: "I remember the last one you read was called The Counterattack of the Waste Sanpao, Holy Dragon Awakens.
In my past life, I was Luo Sanpao who could never break through to Soul Venerable. Friends and family disliked me, enemies despised me, and my fiancée who had a marriage contract with me abandoned me.
I was reborn. In this life, Luo Sanpao awakened as a Bright Holy Dragon, and I want to take back everything I lost!"
There was an awkwardness of having one's personal signature read out in person. Xiang Xiang Naer glared at Zhao Xuanzhen angrily and argued: "The rebirth counterattack genre of waste is outdated. This one is a sweet pet text for both strong!"
Xiang Xiang Naer held the soul guidance communicator in one hand and gave a speech with emotion: "He is the Angel God King who covers the sky with one hand, but he fell in love with her, the Emperor Auspicious Beast, at first sight!
That night, the wind was high and the moon was dark, he pressed her against the wall, smiled evilly, leaned into her ear and whispered, be with me, I'll give you my life!"
"The domineering angel falls in love with me..."
Zhao Xuanzhen suddenly choked. Unlike Xiang Xiang Naer, it was difficult for him to bear such a plot that shocked the world and wept ghosts and gods!
Although he was a primary school student on the outside, his psychological age was a seventeen-year-old genius high school student!
"Don't insult my taste!"
Xiang Xiang Naer felt deep malice from those seven words, angrily bumped into Zhao Xuanzhen lightly, and then looked forward to it: "Love is so beautiful. After I have someone I like, I will give him my life too!"
"Ah? Is your life very good?"
"...... No, Zhao Xuanzhen, your attack power is so strong, I'm broken."
Xiang Xiang Naer was silent for a long time, looking at Zhao Xuanzhen with a complex expression. This guy opened his eyes every day and was mean. So far, she didn't dare to purse her lips, fearing she would poison herself to death.
It wasn't just Xiang Xiang Naer who was broken. Hearing this sentence from Zhao Xuanzhen, Leng Yaoju, who was driving the mecha in the front cabin, suffered a spiritual crit. She secretly reflected on her bitter first half of her life and decisively decided that after the vacation, Zhao Xuanzhen's cultivation tasks would be super doubled!
Zhao Xuanzhen didn't know that he had poked two lung tubes, and still talked eloquently: "I think you should leave your life and give someone a 100,000-year soul bone. It doesn't matter what the attribute is, soul masters nowadays are not picky."
"100,000-year soul bone!?" Xiang Xiang Naer leaned back, "Forget it, I can't afford this with 3,000 Federation coins a month.
Hey, I found the most beautiful beach in Haicheng. Let's go swimming tomorrow morning, okay!"
"Deal."
"Aunt Leng, come and play with us!"
The two discussed enthusiastically along the way how to spend the vacation trip, and then Xiang Xiang Naer begged Leng Yaoju to go to the beach together. Leng Yaoju initially refused tactfully, until Zhao Xuanzhen persuaded her, and she finally couldn't bear to refuse again and again, and agreed to accompany them.
The Skyfire Phoenix flew through the clouds and flew directly to Haicheng. Because Leng Yaoju's special authority in the Sun Moon Federation was very high, the city defense detection system along the way let them go directly. The group had no obstacles, and they didn't even encounter an evil soul master raid.
"Xuanzhen, Xiang Xiang Naer, we have entered the Haicheng airspace." Leng Yaoju reminded.
The two looked out the window. It was drizzling in Haicheng, and the rain pulled out winding water marks, and the metal wings of the Skyfire Phoenix were covered with water mist.
Haicheng is one of the locations of the eighteen pillars. Although its prosperity is far less than that of Shi Laike City, it is one of the important eastern cities of the Sun Moon Federation, and the streets extend to every corner of the city like veins.
"Look below, the Haicheng Spirit Tower seems to have laid out a red carpet for us." Zhao Xuanzhen chuckled.
The Skyfire Phoenix broke through the air and drove to the open space around the Haicheng Spirit Tower. The Spirit Tower personnel seemed to have been notified in advance. Elite deacons lined up on both sides, and a middle-aged man with a serious look stood at the front, welcoming the noble figure on the black phoenix.
Like a real phoenix stretching its body, the phoenix-feather-shaped tail thruster of the Skyfire Phoenix sprayed fire, violently tearing open the rain clouds, and the shadow cast by the wings covered the earth.
"Lady Tianfeng has arrived, be spirited, don't lose points!"
The middle-aged man whispered coldly. He was the Haicheng Spirit Tower master, an old subordinate promoted by Leng Yaoju, and was leading the high-level deacons of the Spirit Tower to line up to welcome them.
The moment the Skyfire Phoenix landed, the counter-thrust engine sprayed scorching light flames downward, attracting the attention of all the people in the Spirit Tower. With Leng Yaoju's status and wealth, even if it was just a black-rank mecha for transportation, it was almost the most expensive material used under the red-rank mecha. The cabin door swirled open, steam and mist steamed, and three figures walked out slowly.
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and bowed to the end: "Subordinate Lu Ming of the Haicheng Spirit Tower, greets Lady Tianfeng!"
"Long time no see, Lu Ming." Leng Yaoju nodded slightly.
The tower masters of the eighteen pillars can be regarded as the frontier officials in the Spirit Tower system. Lu Ming, as the Haicheng Tower master she appointed in person, is one of the important supporters of the Huangjiazu Sect.
Under Lu Ming's leadership, the Haicheng Spirit Tower usually provides normal services such as soul spirits and Spirit Ascension Platforms, and is also responsible for recruiting talents for the Spirit Tower, or the Huangjiazu Sect. The Elementalist Gu Yue was recommended by him.
"I brought my disciples to Haicheng for a vacation, and by the way, I will examine the girl named Gu Yue." Leng Yaoju went straight to the point, "Where is Gu Yue now?"
"Reporting to Lady Tianfeng, Gu Yue is a student in the zero class of Haicheng Academy. Today, the Haicheng Spirit Ascension Platform has entered a riot period, and the academy teachers sent Gu Yue and other students into the Spirit Ascension Platform for training."
What the hell, Gu Yue?
Xiang Xiang Naer was shocked. Leng Yaoju only sent a message saying she was taking the two on vacation, and never mentioned Gu Yue.
The world can't be this small, right? Just walked out of the Spirit Tower headquarters gate, and ran into Gu Yue on the same day?
Hearing about the riot period Spirit Ascension Platform, a flash of light flashed in Zhao Xuanzhen's eyes, locking onto the timeline of a specific day. Tang Wulin had been enrolled for half a year, the zero class had been established for three months, the final exam, the first meeting of the Haicheng F4.
"Riot period Spirit Ascension Platform..." Leng Yaoju pondered.
The Spirit Ascension Platform has two riot periods every year, initially caused by unstable energy. With the progress of technology, the Spirit Ascension Platform is controlled, and the riot period has turned into a special mechanism.
Once the Spirit Ascension Platform enters the riot period, the number of soul beasts increases greatly and becomes extremely active, and the internal danger rises sharply. At the same time, soul masters can kill more soul beasts to complete soul ring ascension.
"Xuanzhen, Xiang Xiang Naer, you enter the riot period Spirit Ascension Platform and test Gu Yue's ability for me. I will watch your actions in the observation room." Leng Yaoju said.
"Aunt Leng, we are here for a vacation this time... Can we not go in?"
Xiang Xiang Naer's little face was tangled together.
That wasn't fear. After spending four years in the human world, Xiang Xiang Naer had already developed absolute humanity.
Back then, the Ten Thousand Demon King failed because there were too many strong people in Shi Laike City, missing the only opportunity for Gu Yue to forcibly fuse with Xiang Xiang Naer. Now, as long as Xiang Xiang Naer resists, Gu Yue will never be able to perfectly fuse that 30% of power.
Xiang Xiang Naer was not afraid of Gu Yue, but she didn't want to see the other party again. Humanity and animality are naturally contrary.
"No."
Leng Yaoju's tone was firm, with no room for maneuver, and said: "Testing Gu Yue is only one of the tasks. You have a more important second task: kill the guardian of the Haicheng primary Spirit Ascension Platform.
If the kill fails, I will arrange a deep-sea training for you tomorrow."
Xiang Xiang Naer became honest instantly and walked into the Haicheng Spirit Tower obediently. Zhao Xuanzhen remained silent throughout. Based on his understanding of Leng Yaoju, he vaguely felt that Teacher had another purpose.
Killing the guardian of the primary Spirit Ascension Platform is more important... That hundred-year Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear?
Zhao Xuanzhen pondered carefully in his heart, and then the two lay into the metal cabin under the personal guidance of Haicheng Tower master Lu Ming.
Before officially entering, Lu Ming said in a deep voice: "Unlike normal times, the riot period Spirit Ascension Platform allows teams to enter, and the two of you will be teleported together.
Please be careful of the restless soul beasts, be vigilant against other soul masters entering the Spirit Ascension Platform, hunt riot period soul beasts, the spirit power absorption time is extended by 100 times, leave the Spirit Ascension Platform, and the remaining spirit power will be absorbed by nearby soul masters.
At this time, humans are even more dangerous than soul beasts. To put it bluntly, other than each other, all other soul masters are enemies."
The light gradually disappeared, the instrument scanning began, Zhao Xuanzhen and Xiang Xiang Naer were teleported to the Spirit Ascension Platform, and only Leng Yaoju and Lu Ming remained in the room.
"Lu Ming." Leng Yaoju said faintly.
"Subordinate is here."
"Have you finished the things I gave you?"
Hearing this, Lu Ming's heart seemed to be trembling. Those treasures were rare in the world. Taking out multiple at once, the Spirit Tower vice tower master Lady Tianfeng also had to use a roundabout way. He hurriedly said respectfully:
"Subordinate obeys your orders. Those two soul beasts were successfully released, replacing the hundred-year Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, and becoming the new guardians of the Haicheng primary Spirit Ascension Platform..."
