Chapter 96 Confrontation with the Holy Maiden
Five minutes ago, on that grassland under the stars.
After firmly memorizing the final section of the "Cangming Water Control Technique," Zhang Ruanruan withdrew from her cultivation state.
Surprisingly, the stars that had transformed into martial arts techniques seemed to sense all of this and began to fly back towards the horizon.
"May you have a safe journey." Zhang Ruanruan stood up and waved towards the night sky.
He looked relaxed.
With this martial skill, it could be said that she had already achieved her goal for this trip in a rather haphazard way.
As for whether there is really something in these ruins that can help people ascend to sainthood?
She didn't ask for much.
After all, what they were exploring this time was only the outer layer of the ruins.
Just as she was thinking about how to leave, light suddenly shone down from the sky.
A staircase of void descended from the stars and landed before her.
'
"Is this an invitation for me to go up?"
Zhang Ruanruan sensed something and immediately lifted her foot and stepped lightly forward.
Like Lu Hengzhou, she was someone who could be directly recognized by the Martial King's will without needing to be tested.
Geniuses are always the envy of others.
Having traversed the vast star field, before even reaching the observatory, she had already glimpsed the scene from the distant, open portal.
Mother Nest... Stone Tablet... Luo Feng's Death... Purple Sphere That Can Help One Advance to Martial Bone... Lin Lu...
The Shadow Saintess... Jiang Feng is being controlled...
A hint of shock also flashed in her crimson eyes. Having been a saintess of the Voodoo Cult for less than two months, she naturally had not yet had the opportunity to meet the Shadow Saintess who was of the same rank as her.
Unexpectedly, that person was actually Lin Lu?
Seeing that the opponent was about to take away the purple sphere, Zhang Ruanruan used all her strength to transform into a streak of light blue and rushed towards the exit.
And so, the scene we see today came about.
"Um?"
Lin Lu stared in surprise at Zhang Ruanruan, who had suddenly appeared before her. After a moment, her expression changed slightly. "Let go!"
"Do you know that this Star Essence is of paramount importance to our sect? As the newly appointed Holy Maiden, are you trying to take it from me?"
"So this thing is called Star Essence." Zhang Ruanruan said "Oh," and then shifted her gaze from Jiang Feng to Lin Lu's face.
From her perception just now, she realized that she might not be able to rescue Jiang Feng and the others in a short time with her own abilities.
"If you know that, why don't you give it to me now!"
For some reason, Lin Lu seemed to be somewhat afraid of Zhang Ruanruan.
She wasn't like this when facing Lu Hengzhou, who was at the same level.
Zhang Ruanruan wouldn't let go, retorting, "Since this concerns a major matter for our sect, why can't I offer it to Lord Soul Devourer?"
"Hmph!" Lin Lu glanced at the battle below, confirming there was still some time, before saying, "There are some things I don't want to explain too clearly. Whether Lord Soul Devourer told you about this or not, you know in your heart!"
The situation is quite complicated right now. Even though she knows that Zhang Ruanruan and Jiang Feng are undercover agents and informants sent by the law enforcement team, she doesn't want to completely break off relations right now.
"Don't I know now?"
Zhang Ruanruan's casual remark left Lin Lu speechless.
"Once the Mother Nest is dealt with, the people below will be here soon." Lin Lu's speech quickened. "If you didn't have power and influence, do you think I'd be afraid of you?"
"power?"
Zhang Ruanruan and Lu Hengzhou were both taken aback; it was clear that this was the first time they had ever heard this term.
Little did Jiang Feng, who was not far away, feel a jolt in his heart.
"power?"
Could it be that thing inside me?
Seeing Zhang Ruanruan's puzzled look, Lin Lu didn't take it seriously, assuming that the other party wanted to hide the specific abilities of her power.
But Lu Hengzhou seemed to have sensed something. His eyes widened. "Could it be that thing ignored my protection??? How is that possible? I've never heard of that kind of ability before?"
As expected of a genius of the Daoist level, he revealed the truth in just one sentence.
"Shut up!" Lin Lu glared at him, then looked back at Zhang Ruanruan.
She is waiting for her to make a choice.
Should they reveal their identities and fight me directly, or should they give me the Star Essence?
She was well aware of Soul Eater's favoritism towards Zhang Ruanruan, but she didn't know to what extent his sect's ideology had permeated her.
For Lin Lu, the two possibilities are about 50/50.
But what happened next was completely unexpected.
No one had time to make any choice.
At one point, the star marrow, radiating aurora colors, suddenly began to beat spontaneously, like a heart.
"Thump!"
"Thump!"
"Thump!"
Its thumping sound grew louder and louder.
Even the high school students who had been fighting hard below heard the sound.
The suspended mother nest seemed to sense some kind of temptation. After spewing out many mutants to fight in place, its enormous body began to slowly fly towards the observatory.
"That mother hive is coming towards us! Damn it!"
Stunned, Lu Hengzhou felt a chill run down his spine. He glanced at the bracelet, which would take about 10 more minutes to fully activate, and cursed inwardly at the garbage equipment the Academy Alliance had given him. He turned to Lin Lu and said sternly, "Release me!"
Lin Lu, however, seemed not to have heard Lu Hengzhou's words, staring intently at the star marrow in front of her.
"Thump!"
Another powerful sound rang out!
Then, to everyone's astonishment, the star marrow actually...
It transformed directly into a streak of brilliant light and shot into Zhang Ruanruan's brow!
"Fuck your mother!" Lu Hengzhou's eyes were bloodshot.
He watched helplessly as this once-in-a-century or even once-in-a-millennium opportunity fell so easily into Zhang Ruanruan's hands. He felt his blood rushing back, the pain unbearable, and he was about to lose control.
Jiang Feng was also extremely surprised. He hadn't expected that the thing that several people had been fighting over would be given to Zhang Ruanruan by just one glance.
It's just like how the goddess you've been admiring for three years was easily won over by someone in just three days.
He suddenly felt a little sorry for Lu Hengzhou.
Oh no, no, if I had known this would happen, I should have demanded the 5000 million Star Sea Coins and the clean water resources during the standoff.
Jiang Feng, I'm still too kind.
On the other side, Lin Lu, who watched helplessly as the Star Essence was taken away, surprisingly did not fly into a rage. Instead, she chuckled softly.
"Hahahaha!"
She chuckled softly at first, then could no longer contain her joy and burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha!"
She laughed so hard she nearly fell over. "You're asking for it! You're really asking for it! Hahahaha!"
"That's great, I don't even need to take you down anymore. Even if that Soul Eater wanted to protect you, he couldn't now. Hahaha, this is really interesting, really interesting!"
Zhang Ruanruan was unaffected by the maniacal laughter. She looked at Lin Lu as if he were a madman, sensing the Star Marrow that was about to merge into her body, and the "Pure Water Bone" that faintly emanated excitement, and asked, "What does that mean?"
"Just wait to die!" Lin Lu, having regained her composure, would not answer the question. She simply left behind this curse-like remark, gave a cold laugh, and prepared to head towards the square.
There, the teleportation guide that Luo Feng had activated before his death was still there; judging by the time, there should be less than 5 minutes left.
Once she gets out, she has plenty of ways to escape from Katsuragi.
"6
'
She suddenly stopped in her tracks, her face pale.
Unfortunately, she couldn't get out of there.
Because that mother nest finally landed in front of the observatory.
