There were a total of six swords flying out. Those flying swords with automatic enemy-seeking function should have cooperated with his offensive, but after realizing that their masters were in fatal threat, they turned into shields to protect their masters' lives. The unstoppable weapons rushed into the bloody sword wind wielded by the man like moths to a flame, but were cut in half by the sword wind as if it were nothing.
Although he failed to stop the sword wind that contained strange power, the young swordsman's sword formation still successfully bought himself a breathing space of only a few milliseconds.
Instead of launching another attack, facing the sword wind that was forcing its way towards his body, the young swordsman raised his sword, aimed the guard at the opponent's killing move, and exerted great force on the soles of his feet.
"Well--!!!"
With a metallic explosion, the sword shattered. The unstoppable force shattered the young swordsman's wrist almost at the moment the two sides came into contact. The young swordsman groaned, gritted his teeth, and endured the piercing pain in his arm and wrist, floating away, and finally fell into the shadow of a container in a few flashes.
"Boy! Come out!!!"
"You can still be considered Jing Yuan's student if you run away from the battlefield like this!?"
...Come out, you unkillable monster!
The young swordsman gritted his teeth and hesitated for a moment. Finally, he took out his cell phone with trembling wrist, enduring the severe pain, and sent the specific information of the pursuit to his master Jing Yuan.
As a member of the Cloud Rider Xiaowei, the young swordsman was not a pedantic person from the beginning. The battlefield was not a fair fight like in a martial arts performance. The so-called war was to actively create unfairness as much as possible. So after realizing that it was almost impossible for him to defeat the opponent, the young swordsman quickly changed his course of action.
It was his fault that he failed to accurately judge the difference in strength between the two sides. Even if he was killed by the "blade" here, the young swordsman had no complaints. But even so, he had to convey his experience truthfully to the Shen Ce Mansion. Only in this way could his master come up with a solution to the two fugitives as quickly as possible.
No matter what, this is the Immortal Boat Luofu. It is impossible for those two star core hunters to fight against the power of the alliance.
Please, General, please reply to my message as soon as possible.
...By the way, what happened to that Blade that made him so angry? He was clearly a fugitive, so why didn't he run away now, but searched for him everywhere in Liuyundu?
For some reason, in the voice of Blade that was venting out his fury, the young swordsman inexplicably heard a sense of frustration, as if he was being excluded.
While Yan Qing was sweating profusely while trying to escape Ren's search, the general, whom he had placed high hopes on, was drinking silently in the silent atmosphere.
The people in the hall were divided into two groups. One group sat around a table, looking at each other in silence; the other group moved two tables out, and the atmosphere was relatively lively.
The two different groups were completely separated by the store manager using some advanced space separation technology. The silence on one side could not affect the enthusiasm on the other side, and the enthusiasm on the other side could not generate any empathy for the silence on the other side.
Dan Heng took a sip of wine and said expressionlessly: "Excuse me, can I go back to my friends?"
"No."
Everyone who had been silent just now spoke in unison.
"First, explain your situation." Dan Feng said, "From your appearance, you should be my reincarnation. You should be the Dragon Lord of this generation... no, the Dragon Lord of your time. But why does the Dragon Lord's power also belong to the descendant of the Vajra Master over there?"
"Besides, why does that little girl who possesses the power of the Dragon Lord look so similar to..."
Dan Feng wanted to say something but stopped himself, his eyes drifting towards Bai Heng's face incessantly.
"Don't look at me, I'm a fox man, not a member of your Chiming tribe." Bai Heng shrugged and picked up a piece of lotus root cake and put it into her mouth to chew. Suddenly, a strange laugh came from her mouth. Her eyes lit up, "This Ming Ou cake is so authentic. Not only the texture and taste, but even the laugh is restored."
"Aren't you curious?" Ying Xing couldn't help asking.
"What's there to be curious about? During my time traveling around the Milky Way, I've seen many people who look like me. The Milky Way is so vast, so anything can happen." Bai Heng smiled carefreely. "Besides, didn't Dan Feng say that the kid is a Dragon Lord like him? That's a Dragon Lord, a Dragon Lord who can call the wind and rain and do everything. Why should I worry about such a big shot?"
"You are right, Lord Danfeng~" Bai Heng looked at Danfeng with a smile.
"..."
Looking at Bai Heng's smiling expression, Dan Feng inexplicably felt sweaty.
For some reason, despite such a brilliant smile, Dan Feng felt that the other person's eyes were filled with hidden deep disappointment and melancholy. He couldn't help but drink a sip of wine to build up his courage, but he didn't understand what he was feeling guilty about, so he could only change the subject awkwardly: "Let's not talk about this for now, Jingyuan, you..."
"Don't talk to me. I'm in a bad mood right now." Jing Yuan, who had become a general, said quietly, "You, don't talk to Dan Feng for the time being."
"Since you insist, I won't ask why." Jing Yuan, the one who hadn't become a general yet, nodded. "Let's go by ourselves, one of us?"
"Let's go, I'll go borrow a new space from the store manager." General Jingyuan stood up, walked behind the store manager amid everyone's hesitant looks, and gently knocked on the space barrier.
The store manager turned his head to look at General Jingyuan and snapped his fingers. The lively atmosphere over there came out from the soundproof space that had been opened. The five heroes of Yunshang here listened to the exclamations of "This is delicious! This is delicious too!" from Bai Lu, who was carried to the opposite side by Cecilia. They looked at each other in silence and the atmosphere of silence became thicker.
The store manager asked, “What’s wrong?”
"Excuse me, could you help open up another small space for the two of us?" General Jingyuan said.
"Okay, don't forget to pay for the private room fee later." The manager nodded.
General Jing Yuan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Oh, sometimes I really can't figure out whether you are generous or stingy..."
"No matter how stingy I am, I can't be more stingy than you. After all, they are my former companions. Are you planning to unite with your past self and exclude them?" said the store manager.
"There's nothing we can do. People will always change, let alone us who are immortal." General Jing Yuan said with some disappointment.
"You've really worked hard..." The store manager looked at General Jingyuan with pity, "I'll give you a piece of feather later. Sort out your memory. After all, you are the contact person for this coffee shop in Xianzhou Luofu. Don't come to my coffee shop tonight and become a demon when you return to Shen Ce Mansion tomorrow. If that happens, my shop will be in tatters even if you jump into the Yellow River."
"Are you cursing me or blessing me... What is this Yu Du Chen? Can it help me suppress the evil spirit?"
"It can be suppressed a little, but it cannot be eradicated. After all, the problems faced by you immortals are far more than just consciousness. In essence, your so-called 'abundant' power still affects the body. It is better to use less of this half-baked immortality power."
"Thank you for your advice, but unfortunately it comes too late for Xianzhou." General Jingyuan said with some melancholy.
The manager snapped his fingers again and pointed to a table: "Go to that table. I've temporarily separated the space over there. Do you want me to serve you some more food?"
"If possible, please do so." General Jingyuan did not reject the store manager's kindness. "After all, this conversation may not be concluded in a short time."
So the two Jing Yuans kicked their companions out of the team and sat at a table by themselves, which made Ying Xing and Dan Feng a little embarrassed. Even Jing Liu, the one who had not yet fallen into the devil's body, showed a complicated expression. But after a moment's silence, this heroic beauty who was always outspoken abruptly stopped her inner curiosity and the idea of pulling her apprentice back, and sat there silently and drank a sip of the clear wine that was a little spicy to her throat.
Although they are master and disciple in fact, as the immortal species, the people of Xianzhou don't pay much attention to the so-called seniority, so this master-disciple relationship did not affect Jing Yuan and Jing Liu, who are also among the Five Heroes of Yunshang, and their friendship as comrades of the same generation. What's more... sitting opposite her is "herself", who she still can't understand why she fell into the devil's shadow.
Although she has not fallen into the evil spirit body yet, in Jingliu's eyes, since there is a possibility that she may fall into the evil spirit body, it is natural for Jingyuan to be on guard against her. She is even considering whether to run to the Ten Kings Division to surrender herself tomorrow. She knows better than anyone what kind of damage a sword master will cause to the immortal boat if he suddenly falls into the evil spirit body without any preparation.
At this point in time, Jingliu would never allow himself to reach this point.
Chapter 4: I can’t say it. At this point, I can’t say it anymore (k)
Human sorrows and joys are not interlinked.
No matter how depressing and heavy the atmosphere on Yunshang Wuxiao's side was, no matter how dull it was, after the space was separated, it could not affect the cheerful atmosphere on the manager's side.
As the dean of the magic academy, although Cecilia can be said to be in a high position in the world bubble she lives in, she is not the kind of person who cares about ostentation and exaggeration.
Cecilia was of course grateful to the store manager who controlled the Quantum Sea.
Although concepts such as "Quantum Sea" and "World Bubble" are more or less difficult to understand for her who has been rooted in this world for a long time, it is an indisputable fact that the store manager has rewritten the underlying rules of the world bubble they are in, allowing them to live happily and long-term in that world bubble.
If Xilin really wanted to stay with the other person, then Cecilia, who was gentle by nature, would certainly not do anything to break up the couple.
In Cecilia's view, tonight's visit was originally just to come and simply see what kind of child the boy who was entrusted with the rest of her life by her adopted daughter was.
Yes, in Cecilia's eyes, no matter what achievements the manager of this cafe has made or what great deeds he has accomplished, in the final analysis, he is still just a boy in his youth.
As long as Xilin herself feels happy and the store manager chosen by Xilin is a boy she can trust, then she doesn't mind giving the young couple the blessing of an elder.
She had originally planned to have a simple dinner here and then return to the magic academy to continue her busy work.
After all, after the rules of the Quantum Sea and the World Bubble were completely reshaped, the World Bubble they were in had already lost those terrible enemies that originally required the magical girls to be constantly injured and sacrificed in order to deal with them.
From the Demon King's Castle, which was originally regarded as a dangerous forbidden area, to the Old City of Broken Star that they were forced to abandon, after the rules were reshaped, they became a brand new land with no people living in it and no monsters wandering around, which urgently needed to be redeveloped.
As the dean of the magic academy, it was her duty-bound role to devote herself to the development of these lands.
Therefore, although the crisis of life and death of the world bubble has been resolved, at least in the short term, the people in their world bubble will still be in a very tense atmosphere.
However, when she walked into the cafe, Cecilia was uncontrollably attracted by a little girl who sneaked to the door.
The little girl with purple hair and blue eyes was so adorable. Her fluffy hair made her look like a stuffed doll, with a tail that kept moving behind her... Cecilia's eyes were drawn to her almost immediately after she saw the little girl.
She used a little trick and got the right to hug the little girl without much effort. Then when she walked into the coffee shop contentedly, she was stunned for a moment.
There is no doubt that this is Cecilia's first time to visit this cafe. Therefore, although she already knew the basic information of this cafe from Silin and several magical girls before visiting this cafe, she still couldn't help but feel a strong sense of surprise when the scene in the hall came into view.
She saw many familiar and unfamiliar faces in this cafe.
The unfamiliar things didn't surprise her. After all, this was a coffee shop. It was normal that there would be people she didn't know among the customers of this coffee shop.
What surprised her were those familiar faces.
As Cecilia's adopted daughter and favorite student, although for a long time, Silin felt inferior and thought that she had poor talent, the fact was that the objects of comparison for her so-called "poor talent" were the best students in the same class, Brolo and Freya, two magical girls who had already skipped a grade and graduated.
After the Demon King was dealt with by the manager of the cafe, Celine had been staying with Brollo and Trili. For some reason, Freya suddenly distanced herself from them. Not only did she not celebrate the beautiful post-disaster life with Celine and Trili, but she ran to Cecilia without stopping and, despite her objections, threw herself into the reconstruction of the Broken Star Ancient City not long after it had been restored.
Seeing the magical girl Freya trying to forget something by working so hard, Cecilia was actually a little worried at first. In her eyes, these cute magical girls were not only her favorite students, but also like children. In order to understand why Freya showed such an abnormal appearance, she had sneaked around Freya more than once, and then... watched her suddenly split into two.
"If you want to find that guy, go by yourself!!!"
At that time, facing the other gentle black-blue girl who suddenly emerged from her body, the magical girl Freya looked as if she was about to cry, and her roar was like that of a woman who suddenly discovered that her husband was cheating on her:
"I...I have been looking for you for so long. We could have been together forever, so why would you...why would you......"
“Wow!!!!”
Ah oh.
It seems like I saw something extraordinary.
Seeing the magical girl Freya crying and running away, and the helpless expression of the girl who suddenly came out of the magical girl Freya, Cecilia, who was caught off guard and ate a big melon, even showed an awkward but polite smile.
Very good, although she calls herself a life mentor and doesn't mind being an intimate big sister who listens to children's troubles, she has no experience in matters of the heart.
Although there have always been rumors among the magical girls that Cecilia and her husband have an extremely deep relationship and a happy married life, and even her adopted daughter Celine believes this rumor, only Cecilia herself knows... Where does she have a husband? She is not an iron man. While serving as the dean of the magic academy, she also has to study how to reduce the sacrifice of magical girls. Then, how can she find a husband in such a state that she can't wait to use 24 hours as 48 hours?
I don't know who spread this damn rumor.
(In the world bubble, Shigure Kirara, who was working overtime, suddenly sneezed.)
Of course, when Cecilia blinked her curious eyes in front of these lovely children and asked the following questions in a coquettish manner: "How can I find a love as beautiful as Lady Cecilia's?" "Lady Cecilia's other half must be a good man like Prince Charming, right?"
I couldn't say it. In fact, I don't have a husband, and I don't have any emotional experience or emotional life. I can't say such words no matter what.
So Cecilia could only pretend to be an experienced person with sweat dripping down her face, and said some repetitive words like "If you don't want to regret it, the most important thing is to never deceive your own heart" to fool people, and then she fled with forced calmness surrounded by the starry eyes of many girls (especially Xilin).
I don’t understand. Your dean really doesn’t know how to deal with emotional issues!
——And when Cecilia walked into the coffee shop holding Bai Lu's small body, the moment she saw those familiar faces, she was overwhelmed with shock and the guilty conscience that she had experienced once before under those dazzling and piercing gazes, all came to her mind again.
Although there was no reason, Cecilia always felt that there was something fishy going on in this cafe.
Theresa from 2017 had left shortly after the store manager brought Kiana to visit the Immortal Boat. Theresa from 2013 followed closely behind, carrying the bug that was knocked unconscious by the goose, out of the door of the cafe and hurried back to St. Freya's College. According to the message she left before leaving, she was already prepared to take corresponding countermeasures in advance for the "Sirin Plan" laid out by her good grandfather.
Rita from 2013 stayed in this cafe temporarily. Yulandel from 2013, Mei Raiden from 2017, and Rita from , all were knocked unconscious and haven't woken up yet, sleeping soundly on the second floor of the cafe.
So, apart from the Big Three from 2017 and Rita from 2013, the only people left in the lobby on the first floor were a few magical girls who had visited early, the Herrscher of Lightning, Raiden Mei, and Mistlin Shaniyatt, who was repairing the space outside the door with a bitter look on her face.
In fact, Cecilia was not the only one who was surprised when she walked into the cafe.
The first one to be stunned was Kiana.
Although Kiana had seen many cases of "the same individual from different worlds" in this cafe, such as "Himeko from Canghai City", "Magical Girl Brollo", "Magical Girl Trili", and "Great Guardian Bronya", but even so, the moment she saw "Magical Girl Academy Principal Cecilia", her brain went blank.
"..." At the edge of the dining table, Kiana, who was three seats away from Cecilia, lowered her head, secretly pinched the manager's palm, and then wrote on it tremblingly.
Store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, store, or and or or and and or s ! ! ! ! !
"?" The store manager turned his head, looking puzzled.
"..."
You are doubting something!!! Kiana engraved hard on the store manager’s palm in frustration.
The person coming tonight turns out to be my mother... Is it Lady Cecilia? ? ? ?
Hey, didn’t I tell you that? The store manager’s eyes became more and more confused.
No!!! Kiana squeezed the store manager's hand harder and harder.
Not once! Never said it!
Oh, and then? The store manager raised his eyebrows.
And then?! And then…
Yes, and then what happened? Kiana was suddenly confused.
Let's not talk about the fact that this Cecilia is a life form from the World Bubble. Even if she is the "Cecilia" from the Eigenworld, what does it have to do with me... with myself, a mere experimental subject born from a cloning experiment? This hero who had already died in the Second Collapse had never even seen me!
Confused, Kiana slowly loosened her grip on the store manager's hand, and her expression suddenly became depressed.
On the other side, Cecilia's eyelids twitched slightly as she stroked Bai Lu's warm little head.
"Hello, um? Is there anything strange on my face?"
"Oh, sorry for staring at your face." Mistyline smiled politely, "It's just that when I entered this cafe, I really didn't expect that I would be so lucky to meet the person who gave me this appearance."
This strange description made Cecilia, who was already nervous, tremble even more.
"You...you are..." she asked cautiously.
"Misterine, Misterine Shaniat." Misterine said with a smile, "From a biological point of view, I can probably be considered your...ah, no, I should say, the daughter of 'Cecilia' from another world."
