Who is not a warrior these days?

Chapter 520 My Strange Dream Last Night

When the call ended, Chen Mulin's final words, "Be cautious in your actions recently, and don't try to stand out," made her even more suspicious.

Huo Qingfu could never have imagined that her master, the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect, who was both righteous and wicked, played the mortal world, and even caused headaches for the Federation government, who could only incorporate her into the Han military system, was someone she could not help but admire.

In fact, at some unknown moment, Ah Li, who was sitting opposite her at this moment, eating a duck leg with an honest expression, had already "recruited" her with absolute power and in a way that she could not understand, and made her a member of the newly established "Star Lord" system under Wang Li's command - the "Red Phoenix Star Lord" who is in charge of marriage, human feelings, and worldly desires!
Therefore, even though Chen Mulin, with her profound cultivation and special status, sensed the "divine war" that stirred up the river of time last night, and might even vaguely perceive that the core of the collision was related to her mysterious "master," she had already made a vow, and her body and mind were marked by Wang Li. There was no way she could reveal the truth to her disciple.

If Huo Qingfu could hear her master's thoughts at this moment, she would probably hear Chen Mulin's whisper, filled with helplessness yet tinged with a strange sense of satisfaction: "I'm truly sorry, Qingfu. It's not that I don't want to tell you, but... I have already taken the form of my lord, and from my soul to my destiny, I cannot be betrayed. How can we presume to discuss matters concerning our lord? You... pray for your own good fortune. Perhaps, this is not necessarily a bad thing..."

after all……

Being able to get involved with that person is an unimaginable "opportunity" in itself, although this opportunity seems a bit... like it's messing with the apprentice.

At this moment, Huo Qingfu suppressed his doubts about his master's unusual reaction last night, turned his cool gaze back to Wang Li, and followed Li Yuanzhu's words, saying, "So, A-Li, last night... did you really not feel anything? Or rather, did you have any... unusual dreams?"

She always felt that there was some inexplicable, subtle connection between her seemingly unremarkable childhood sweetheart and the global anomaly that occurred last night.

It was an intuition without any reason, yet it was unusually strong.

Like the slightest vibration on a spider web, it is difficult to detect, yet it truly exists.

In an instant, the golden sun that was shining brightly over the heavens, endlessly scattering countless stars into the distance, paused slightly.

Wang Li was engrossed in eating a piece of tender duck meat when she heard this. She looked up, her face unchanged from before.

He swallowed the food in his mouth, blinked, and said with an innocent look, "Special? No, right? I dreamt that I was fighting with other versions of myself, and then other versions of myself came together to break up the fight. Is that special?"

His words were so natural and so absurd that the absurdity overshadowed the potentially astonishing amount of information they contained.

It's like someone seriously saying they dreamed they would become a "God of War" in the future; the first reaction is not deep thought, but astonishment.

"Uh (~_~;)"

Li Yuanzhu was taken aback by this overly "simple" yet bizarre sleep talk, and for a moment she didn't know how to respond. She could only shake her head with a wry smile, thinking that A-Li's thought process was still so peculiar.

She couldn't help but imagine countless Wang Lis fighting in her dreams and being stopped by even more Wang Lis, feeling both confused and strangely amused.

Huo Qingfu: "..."

Her cool eyes stared at Wang Li for a few seconds, looking at his innocent expression that said, "I'm just telling the truth." The strong intuition about the subtle connection that had just risen in her heart seemed to be doused with a bucket of cold water, and she instantly became somewhat powerless.

She even noticed that Wang Li still had a piece of duck on the corner of his mouth, and with his blank look, he looked exactly like an ordinary boy immersed in food.

She took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing her urge to ask, "How many others were there exactly? Was the fight intense? What moves did you use? How did it end?" This urge to completely sway her was making her look away with a sigh, and she picked up her water glass and took a sip. The warm tea slid down her throat, but it couldn't completely quell the irritation in her heart.

"Okay, I was overthinking it."

Huo Qingfu's tone carried a hint of barely perceptible frustration. She realized that her usually proud insight and logic seemed to always be ineffective in the face of Wang Li's "sincere nonsense." "You really... there's nothing special about this."

She emphasized the word "special" a little more, as if trying to convince herself.

Perhaps she was just overthinking things? Ah Li was just... better at having these bizarre dreams? She tried to explain it rationally, but a faint voice deep inside her was still insisting on something.

Seeing that she had successfully steered the conversation off-topic, Wang Li chuckled inwardly, but showed no sign of it on her face. Instead, as if she had just remembered something, she added, her tone carrying a hint of longing typical of a foodie: "Oh, by the way, those other versions of myself in my dreams invited me to their place to eat duck..."

He paused deliberately, and seeing that Huo Qingfu's attention was drawn back, he slowly continued, "Hmm, I wonder how the ducks are over there, whether they're as delicious as my mom's."

As he spoke, he actually wore a serious expression of comparison, as if weighing the differences in flavor between ducks from different worlds.

Even Li Yuanzhu, who was listening attentively, couldn't help but chuckle, thinking that Ah Li's dream was both chaotic and delightful.

She imagined Wang Li from another world sitting together, tasting the duck, and her eyes curved into crescent moons: "Li, your dream is so interesting. But when it comes to duck, Auntie's is definitely the best!"

Looking at the scene before him, Huo Qingfu completely gave up the idea of ​​exploring in this direction.

She gracefully picked up a napkin and wiped her mouth, then suddenly remembered the teacher's strange behavior lately.

Maybe I should go and see the teacher?
Or try to find out through other channels if there are any other abnormal reports worldwide.

The conversation at the dinner table finally shifted temporarily from the unsettling celestial phenomena of last night to Wang Li's "colorful" dreams and the delicious duck of today.

The sun shone brightly again, and the quacking of the ducks in the backyard sounded especially cheerful.

Meanwhile, Wang Li, the instigator, kept his achievements hidden and continued to enjoy his breakfast with a clear conscience.

In a fleeting moment when no one was watching, his gaze drifted almost imperceptibly across the distant sky outside the window, and a faint smile curved his lips.

"As for the rest of me..."

He chuckled to himself, "Just wait, I'll taste all the ducks in your area sooner or later."
