Chapter 375: A Fate Card Master’s Prying?

Faced with Yuchi Xueyao’s coercion, Luo Sheng could only reluctantly accept.

After all, who could refuse someone who was not only his teacher but also an obsidian-level powerhouse, too strong to deny?

However, Luo Sheng didn’t come away empty-handed.

He obtained a platinum-level defense card.

Even though using this card consumed an enormous amount of spiritual power, it was undeniably an absolute lifesaving trump card.

Luo Sheng pondered to himself, ‘Although this is a one-time use card, I’m also one of the Creators. As long as I have a blank card, I might be able to turn it into a regular card. Then I’d truly have a platinum-level defense card.’

Yuchi Xueyao could discern his actual level.

But she absolutely couldn’t tell that he was also a Creator.

No matter what, he hadn’t lost out in this deal.

Afterwards, Luo Sheng continued to converse with her, obtaining a wealth of information about Dongli Wutian, the former principal of Experimental No. 2 School.

Luo Sheng grew increasingly puzzled, “His name is very familiar, as if it’s someone I know.”

Yuchi Xueyao looked at him with keen interest, leaning against the sofa, “You’re familiar with his name?”

“Yes, I remember during the major incident in Pingcheng, there was a group of Evil Card Masters who helped the otherworld dimension invade Pingcheng. Their leader was called Dongli Wentian. I think there’s a connection between them, they might be brothers,” Luo Sheng explained frankly.

“So what happened to them now?”

“I took them out.”

“…”

Yuchi Xueyao narrowed her eyes, staring at Luo Sheng.

She seemed to be saying, ‘Well, you little rascal, you can even take out gold-level Evil Card Masters, and now you’re here making excuses to me?’

Seeing her strange look, Luo Sheng scratched his face awkwardly.

He quietly added, “He wasn’t strong at all, so dealing with him wasn’t difficult. But Dongli Wutian has been at the academy for so long, he must have quite a few tricks up his sleeve.”

Yuchi Xueyao didn’t want to hear his excuses.

But she didn’t expose him either.

She clapped her hands on her thighs, “Alright, as long as you capture him alive, I can give you a little reward, and it won’t be less than what the academy would offer.”

Luo Sheng’s expression was complex.

It seemed that she hadn’t intended to give him any benefits before.

A clear exploitation of labor.

Of course, the one-time card she gave earlier didn’t count, that was considered a down payment.

Luo Sheng obtained information about Dongli Wutian’s appearance location, his general range of activities, as well as the people and matters he had been in contact with, then left Yuchi Xueyao’s apartment.

After exiting that skyscraper.

Luo Sheng finally let out a sigh of relief.

He muttered to himself, “Fortunately there’s no time limit, otherwise where would I even start looking? Such a vast area.”

Luo Sheng complained for a while.

Looking at the map of Yuncheng, he had quite a headache. It was like looking for a needle in the sea.

Not to mention how unimaginably large Yuncheng was, with a single district possibly larger than the entire Pingcheng.

Just in terms of population, it was over 100 times that of Pingcheng, with a single district having several million people.

And Yuncheng had 5 major districts.

Trying to find an Evil Card Master was no different from searching for a needle in a haystack.

Moreover, knowing he was wanted, the target would certainly do his utmost to conceal his aura or change his appearance to move around Yuncheng.

In any case, this was not an easy job.

He needed to be prepared for a prolonged operation.

Just as Luo Sheng was complaining, passing by the street below the skyscraper.

He noticed an old man standing quietly among the crowds coming and going at the intersection.

His gaze was fixed on the skyscraper.

He was holding a bottle of soda he had just bought, with an unfriendly expression, looking unapproachable.

Luo Sheng had initially just glanced at him absent-mindedly.

But he quickly stopped in his tracks. Although the man’s aura was concealed, his face was indeed that of Dongli Wutian.

“Huh? Could it be such a coincidence?” Luo Sheng was stunned, not expecting to encounter an old acquaintance while walking on the street.

Dongli Wutian had appeared right before his eyes, bold as brass.

Didn’t this guy care about his image at all?

As a wanted criminal, he was walking around the city without any fear.

Did he think the most dangerous place was the safest?

Luo Sheng had been planning to rest for a few days in the villa.

He didn’t expect the big fish to deliver itself to his doorstep.

“Sigh, alright, I’ll have to bite the bullet. Fortunately, this place is close to the academy. If a fight breaks out, it will definitely attract Yuchi Xueyao’s attention. Then, I won’t have to lift a finger to catch him,” Luo Sheng thought to himself.

He was considering how to make a big commotion here to attract Yuchi Xueyao’s attention.

Let her help out and save himself the trouble.

Suddenly.

Luo Sheng felt a strange energy, as if a huge stone was pressing down on him.

It made his whole body tremble continuously, so heavy that he fell to his knees, supporting himself with both hands on the ground to avoid falling flat.

“???”

Luo Sheng was at a loss.

He had no idea what was going on.

Dongli Wutian hadn’t used any techniques, it couldn’t possibly be his doing.

However, Luo Sheng felt as if he was being spied on at this moment.

Someone was trying to use some means to obtain all the secrets on him.

Luo Sheng was instantly drenched in sweat.

At the same time.

Many passersby on the street also noticed Luo Sheng’s unusual state.

Even Dongli Wutian glanced at him a few times, took a sip of the soda in his hand, then leisurely left.

Meanwhile, a crowd of passersby gathered around Luo Sheng, asking, “Are you feeling unwell?”

“Do you need us to call an ambulance?”

“Young man, you need to learn moderation at your age.”

“That’s right, lack of moderation will ruin you sooner or later. You’re not doing escort work for rich girls around here, are you? Such a handsome face, servicing the wealthy ladies in this area?”

The old men and women chattered away.

Luo Sheng’s head was spinning.

Especially with these uncles and aunties saying such nonsense.

Was he that kind of person?

After a moment, the pressure on his body and the feeling of being frantically observed gradually disappeared.

Luo Sheng’s body returned to a relaxed state. He slowly got up, smiling at the uncles and aunties, saying:

“It’s nothing, I just tripped over my foot earlier. And of course, I’m not doing escort work like that uncle said. I’m a proper person, and proper people don’t do such things.”

With that said.

Luo Sheng ran off without looking back.

There was no point in staying here any longer.

Dongli Wutian had long since disappeared, his aura undetectable.

Not to mention the pestering of those uncles and aunties.

Back at the villa.

Luo Sheng shut the door tightly, nervously looking outside, and summoned Bai Moxue to hide in his shadow.

If anything really happened outside, Luo Sheng would act decisively, even immediately fleeing with Xu Yourong.

At this time, Xu Yourong and Xu Xiaoqin, sitting in the living room, also noticed Luo Sheng’s nervous demeanor.

So they asked, “What happened?”

As Xu Yourong spoke, she also appeared cautious.

Ready to enter combat mode at any moment.

Only then did Luo Sheng explain, “On my way back, I felt someone was spying on me, likely someone of considerable strength.”

After hearing this, Xu Yourong frowned deeply.

Obviously, Luo Sheng being noticed so early was not a good thing.

So the two remained on guard for a long time.

Finding that nothing dangerous had occurred, they finally began to relax.

Xu Xiaoqin suddenly called out, “Look quickly, a Fate Master from the Murong family has gone blind.”

Luo Sheng and Xu Yourong looked at each other, feeling confused.

So they came to Xu Xiaoqin’s side to see the content displayed on her phone.

On a city forum, explosive news had suddenly appeared.

An insider revealed that a platinum-level Fate Master from the Murong family had used a fate card to directly search for Luo Sheng himself and his secrets through the previously circulated video of Luo Sheng defeating the flying dragon.

Not long after starting to use the fate card, it suddenly shattered, and the Fate Master also went blind. Even being platinum-level couldn’t escape the backlash of misfortune.

His fate ability was ruined.

There were also a bunch of comments below the post.

Huan﹣﹣ling: “Holy crap, who is that person? Even a Fate Master got backlashed!”

Weizhuang zhe de mianju: “This is a major event!”

Kongcheng liu xia huiyi: “I guess the Murong family must be panicking now, their powerful Fate Master taken down by this person.”

The forum below was packed with people.

Everyone was commenting on the Fate Master’s backlash.

This was an unprecedented event, especially for a major family to suffer such a setback in this matter.

It was simply something everyone was delighted to see.

However, people were also speculating about Luo Sheng’s background.

After all, the Murong family was a powerful family force in Yuncheng, and it was said that their family head had already reached the initial stage of diamond level.

Seeing this news, Luo Sheng was at a loss for words.

Especially with Xu Yourong and Xu Xiaoqin curiously looking at him, seemingly wanting an explanation.
