YM778.TV Chapter 208 - Am I That Kind Of Person?
At the shop.
Lu Ming looked solemn.
He looked at Xiaobai who was flying around and he looked at the Original Card near his foot. It was strange. Why could Xiaobai’s Original Card fly but not his?
“Are you so weak?”
He looked doubtfully at the Original Card.
The Original Card exploded in anger.
Damn!
Why was he such a bully?
If he was dissatisfied with him, he could say so directly. Why did he humiliate him?
It was doing fine sleeping while cultivating. But Lu Ming called it over and stepped on it...
He was such a bully!
Didn’t a card spirit have any dignity?!
...
Whoosh...
Whoosh...
Xiaobai came floating back.
However...
She seemed to be losing her control.
“Ah... Master, be careful, I am going to crash...”
Xiaobai came flying over.
Lu Ming darted to the left and Xiaobai came flying uncontrollably to the left, Lu Ming darted to the right and Xiaobai careened to the right as well... after multiple times, Lu Ming decided to give up since he could not avoid her...
Crash!
He gave her a bear hug.
Xiaobai crashed into Lu Ming.
Lu Ming was speechless.
“Did you do that on purpose?”
He looked at the young girl who was hanging onto him.
“Of course not.”
Xiaobai did not look up.
“Really?”
Lu Ming felt amused.
“Well...”
Xiaobai’s voice was as soft as that of a mosquito.
“Come down.”
Lu Ming put her down unhappily. Old Jiang was in Qing Ming City. If he saw this, he would beat him to death sooner or later...
“Okay.”
Xiaobai slid down from him obediently.
Cough, cough.
Lu Ming looked serious. “Where did you learn how to fly on the card?”
“I did it by myself.”
Xiaobai sounded embarrassed. “This could not be considered as flying on the card. I only know how to float... and I am very slow... I look like a fool...”
Lu Ming was stunned.
She did it by herself?
Wait a minute.
Lu Ming suddenly recovered from his senses.
“Have you been working on this these past few days?”
Lu Ming was surprised.
“Yes.”
Xiaobai sounded a little embarrassed.
She knew that she had been having some fun lately and had not been serious with her studies...
Previously, she read in a book that powerful Swordsman could perform Sword Kinesis Flight and she wanted to see whether she could fly on the Original Card and she ended up immersed in the study of it... She thought that it could be done in a jiffy. But it had been so long yet she could only float...
She was too stupid!
“It’s okay.”
Lu Ming’s hands shivered slightly. “This is considered part of one’s cultivation.”
“Seriously?”
Xiaobai was elated.
“Of course.”
Lu Ming pondered for a moment. “How did you make it fly?”
“I just fly.”
Xiaobai said, “It is able to withstand my weight now.”
With that...
She stepped onto the Original Card.
Buzz—
The Original Card tried hard to suspend in the air and it really floated.
Lu Ming had not come to his senses.
Oh my goodness!
The card did it through brute strength!!!
Therefore...
The little guy had been moving bricks every day and kept adding weights to the training. Right now, it was able to lift Xiaobai...
Therefore...
This was considered as flying on the card?!
Was this a joke?!
Lu Ming was at a loss for words.
It was true.
He thought that there must be a profound and mysterious trick to flying on the card. But in the end, it turned out that Xiaobai’s Original Card lifted her through brute force...
This was a harsh world!
“Master, I will continue my practice.”
Xiaobai waved her hands.
“Okay.”
Lu Ming told her to pay attention to safety, looking enviously at Xiaobai who floated around in the air... This was flying on the card...
It was super dashing!
Why was it that Xiaobai could do it while he could not?
At the thought of this, he re-focused his attention on his Original Card.
“Good-for-nothing!”
Lu Ming sighed.
This was a captured card spirit!
This was a mature card spirit. Instead, it was outshone by the card spirit of the young lady!
What is the use of having you!
The Original Card was silent.
He could not be bothered with Lu Ming.
It was true.
How heavy was Xiaobai?
And how heavy was Lu Ming?!
Moreover, Lu Ming’s body physical fitness had reached a three-star peak. After going through terrifying tempering, it was very powerful! Given the physical fitness of this level, it meant that...
He was super heavy!
There was no way to fly!
It was impossible to fly!
“Good-for-nothing!”
“Move bricks!”
Lu Ming threw the guy to a corner.
Whoosh...
Whoosh...
Xiaobai was flying around happily.
Suddenly...
A young man who passed by looked up and was amazed at the flying Xiaobai. He stopped and watched incredibly at the scene in front of him.
“Hello, what is your name?”
The young man volunteered to walk forward.
“I am Xiaobai.”
Xiaobai stared at him with a strange expression in her eyes.
“That is a good name.”
The young man’s eyes lit up. “You can fly? That is incredible.”
He was excited.
It was true.
What a pretty young lady! What a powerful talent!
Which level was she at?
The young lady could actually fly!
Goodness!
This age...
This talent...
Those looks...
Did she have perfect genes? If she had children with him when she grew up in the future... Their future generation would be very talented! They no longer needed to slough their guts out!
However, he saw Lu Ming in the distance.
Oh.
Crap!
He subconsciously felt like sneaking away.
“Old Wu.”
Lu Ming smiled at him. “Come, please finish your sentence.”
“Nothing much.”
Wu Hongfei looked serious. “I merely admired this young lady for her talents.”
“Really?”
Lu Ming smiled but said nothing.
“Yes,”
Wu Hongfei said earnestly.
Was he that kind of person who dreamed of having these good genes when he saw talented and gifted people?
What a joke!
“What are you doing here?”
Lu Ming was curious.
Qing Ming City was a small place. Why would Wu Hongfei a five-star Swordsman come here?
“I am here for some business.”
Wu Hongfei smiled. “Besides, I am no longer a five-star Swordsman. Please call me a three-star Cleric!”
“Did you really re-cultivate!?” Lu Ming exclaimed.
That was crazy!
He had already reached a five-star level. Few people would make the decision to re-cultivate, especially when they were not gifted... But then again, how long had it been?!
After he re-cultivated, didn’t it mean that he had to start from scratch?
Especially—
With two different vocations!
“It’s still not too bad.”
Wu Hongfei smiled. “Although I had to re-cultivate, thankfully I still have a strong physical fitness and mental strength, as well as something weird... Anyway, the cultivation speed is fast.”
Wu Hongfei felt pleased.
As someone who was not gifted, he never thought that after re-cultivation, his cultivation speed would be so amazing! He thought that he would need several years, but it only took him slightly more than a month...
He was taken aback as well!
Why?
He had no idea.
Elder Qiu Shuyi...
What did she see in him back then?!
Anyway...
He was full of gratitude to the elder.
“There is no Cleric in Qing Ming City.”
Lu Ming squinted his eyes.
“Therefore I am here.”
Wu Hongfei whispered. “My Master said that something serious might happen in Qing Ming City... I am here to look for opportunities. It would aid my cultivation...”
Oh?
Lu Ming was interested. “Oh? Did anyone ask you to be a master of ceremonies?”
Wu Hongfei looked sullen.
To hell with that!
He was a Cleric. Did he understand what a Cleric was? He should have seen them in the games! They could save others in the games!
Of course.
He only dared to yell inside his mind.
After all, he could not defeat Lu Ming.
He had watched the School Championship Competition. The damn sister of Lu Ming had helped him such that he could kill a four-star instantly. There was nothing that he could say!
“Old Wu, do Clerics perform when they preside over weddings?”
Lu Ming was full of emotions. “After all, one must combine Eastern and Western traditions to be able to earn money these days...”
Wu Hongfei was expressionless.
“Oh, it’s time.”
Wu Hongfei looked at the time. “I have to go to work...”
Upon finishing his words...
He hurried away.
Lu Ming smiled.
How dare a guy of this level set his designs on Xiaobai! He must be tired of living!
However... even the Cleric was here...
It seemed that something serious was going to happen.
“He is strange,” Xiaobai spoke up all of a sudden.
Eh?
Lu Ming looked at Xiaobai. “How is he strange?”
“I can’t really pinpoint it.” Xiaobai thought hard about it. “Anyway, he is not quite the same.”
“Oh...”
Lu Ming squinted his eyes.
Strange...
The last time when Xiaobai made such a comment, it was about Xin-er! Qiu Shuyi cast odd glances at Wu Hongfei previously as well. Now that he thought about it...
This guy might have some secrets.
Tsk tsk.
Qing Ming City was getting more and more lively.
“Original Card. It seems that we have to work hard.”
Lu Ming squinted his eyes.
The Original Card was silent.
There were things that it understood as well.
Although it had been reduced to a card spirit now, he had managed to survive... It was not easy to stay alive, how could it die easily?
Furthermore...
It had some idea of the happenings in Qing Ming City.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
The Original Card burst madly with lights.
The cultivation speed was increased once again!
...
Cold winds were howling gently.
Suddenly... snowflakes started to fall.
“Master, it’s snowing!”
Xiaobai was elated.
“That’s right.”
Lu Ming looked toward the sky.
The snowflakes fell slowly, as it became heavier and heavier. In no time, the entire sky was covered with snow and it seemed capable of engulfing Qing Ming City!
A distance away.
Wu Hongfei who had just left was startled.
Snow?
It was snowing?!
He became excited and he ran back to the shop.
“Did something happen?”
Lu Ming’s heart jumped a beat.
He remembered that Wu Hongfei was a Cleric!
Could it be that he could tell that something was wrong?
This snow...
Could it be that it was a bad premonition?
“Come on!”
Wu Hongfei gestured for Lu Ming to come over. “Take a video for me.”
Lu Ming was confused.
However, he still took a video for Wu Hongfei. In the video, Wu Hongfei looked like a husky that was enjoying himself in the heavy snow...
“This will do.”
Wu Hongfei sent the video to his circles of friends feeling satisfied.
“Haha!”
Idiots, did you see this?!
It’s snowing!
Hahaha, I finally saw real snow! This is not the snow created by the Elementalists. This is real snowy weather. Hahahahaha.”
Upon finishing his words...
He left in a happy mood.
Lu Ming took a long time to come to his senses.
Oh.
Wu Hongfei seemed to be from the south...
“Poor southerners.”
Lu Ming sighed. But then he remembered that they had the same reaction when he could not swim last time... He put aside his contempt right away.
There was no point in hurting one another!
Back at the shop.
He noticed that the Original Card was lying comfortably on the ground, shining brightly...
Eh?
Was the floor warm?
Lu Ming was elated.
Although given his physical fitness level now, he had no fear of the cold, everyone would feel better if the temperature was just right. Therefore... Lu Ming touched the ground.
Shush!
A piercing cold shot through his heart.
Well?!
This feeling...
Lu Ming was doubtful.
“Xiaobai, did we switch on the heating for the floor?” Lu Ming asked.
“Yes.”
Xiaobai thought before saying. “The news report a few days ago said that they will be providing heating to everyone.”
Really?
Lu Ming frowned.
Indeed, there was collective heating in the northern part of the country.
Even at this time!
Although many people were cultivators, children could only cultivate when they grew up. Besides, even if they cultivated, not everyone would cultivate their physical fitness.
Therefore, every city should work on making the environment more comfortable for living!
In general, every winter, Qing Ming City would provide heating, but this year...
There was snowfall in the city yet the heating was yet to be activated.
This was weird.
Lu Ming made a phone call to Zhang Wei. “Did you make a mistake with downtown heating?”
“No. The heating has been stopped temporarily!”
Zhang Wei said, “The equipment broke down a few days ago. It had been stopped and they are in the midst of repairing it. It has only been delayed for two days. They should be working overtime to repair it. What’s the problem?”
“So it’s faulty...”
Lu Ming squinted his eyes.
“Yes, I suppose it will be working again in a few days’ time. Please wait for the time being,” Zhang Wei replied.
Lu Ming was silent.
He placed his hand on the floor to feel the temperature. He could feel a touch of cool air seeping out from the ground. Not only was there no heating provided, this was in fact refrigeration?!
“You should come downtown to take a look,” Lu Ming said.
“Sure.”
Zhang Wei hung up the phone.
After a long time...
He came downtown and according to what Lu Ming said, did a careful inspection and his countenance changed. He brought the team’s equipment hastily...
Dee!
Dee!
The detector vibrated madly.
Warning!
Discovered unknown aura!
Warning!
Discovered unknown aura!
He and Lu Ming were startled. “Something is amiss!”
