The Great Overlord: Simulating the Future, Dominating Speedrunning

Chapter 44 It’s rude to not reciprocate!
Outside the mall,

Above the azure sky, there was suddenly a rapid sound of breaking wind, and then a streak of purple light streaked across the sky, and finally rushed away into the distance at an astonishing speed.

The purple light flickered, disappearing in the air from time to time. When it appeared again, it was thousands of miles away. It was obvious that a valuable space magic was being performed.

After traveling at full speed for nearly half an hour, it finally slowed down and landed on a remote hill.

The purple light dissipated, revealing two young figures, a man and a woman.

It was Lu Chen and Lin Jing.

Lu Chen looked around and saw that no one was chasing him, so he let go of Lin Jing's wrist, took out a bottle of supreme spiritual liquid from the Sumeru bracelet and swallowed it, then began to practice the technique to refine it, quickly recovering the spiritual energy he had just consumed.

Seeing this, Lin Jing looked at Lu Chen with eyes full of spirit. A hint of confusion flashed in her eyes. She said in confusion: "Who are you? I don't remember seeing you in the Martial Realm?"

"Why are you helping me?"

Lu Chen sat cross-legged on the ground, refining the Supreme Spirit Liquid he had absorbed into his body while answering without turning his head: "Senior Martial Ancestor helped me before. I am not an ungrateful person. I will return the favor. Seeing Miss Lin in danger today, I naturally have to help her."

"If Miss Lin doesn't believe me, you can take out the jade pendant on my chest and you will know. I can't get up now, so please do as you please."

"Jade pendant?"

Lin Jing blinked her eyes, a hint of curiosity flashed across her cute face like porcelain, and she reached out to grab Lu Chen's chest.

Even at this moment, Lu Chen's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened and he grabbed her wrist, causing the girl to open her eyes wide instantly.

"I thought you were a good person, but you're such a pervert, playing hard to get! Let me go now, or I'll make you pay!"

The sudden contact made the girl in white stiffen, then she reacted and struggled to speak hurriedly.

At the same time, he felt a little aggrieved and thought, "What my mother said is indeed true. People outside are really treacherous. I didn't expect that I would just escape from the wolf's den and fall into the tiger's den. Why is my life so miserable? Woo woo woo..."

Lu Chen ignored Lin Jing's chattering, pulled her behind him, looked solemnly at the space in the distance, and said solemnly: "Since you are here, why hide, why not show yourself!"

"Haha, brother, you have such a keen sense. I, Liu Ming, value talent the most and would not easily become an enemy of a genius like you."

"I will give you one more chance. If you retreat now, I will forgive you. If you meet me again in the future, I will never make things difficult for you!"

When Lu Chen finished speaking, a feminine voice also sounded between heaven and earth.

I saw that on a mountain not far away, the space was slightly distorted, and a small boat emitting endless light came out from the void!

"It's a spaceship!"

The knowledgeable Lin Jing exclaimed, then reacted immediately and realized that she had misunderstood Lu Chen just now.

Her face flushed involuntarily. She hid behind Lu Chen, tugged at his sleeve, and said a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I... I didn't know they would come so soon..."

Lu Chen shook his head, waved his hand, and said, "It doesn't matter. Since they have a spaceship, we can't outrun them. We can only fight with our backs against the wall. That thing is faster than a sixth-grade supreme being..."

"Whatever life-saving trump cards you have, bring them out. I may not be able to take care of you in the battle later..."

In the distance, I saw a spaceship docked on the mountain, and two figures came down from it.

It was none other than Liu Ming, known as the Young Master of Xuantian Palace, and the black-robed elder whose power had reached the Fifth Rank Supreme. Liu Ming waved his hand, and the light on the spaceship flickered, instantly shrinking to a palm-sized boat that he stowed away in his sleeve.

Then, he looked at Lu Chen, who was protecting Lin Jing behind him, with a playful look, and said, "It seems that you have made up your mind to protect her. I didn't expect that after playing with women for so many years, I would still encounter the trick of being a hero saving a beauty. It's really interesting. It just so happens that I am tired of playing with those rouge and powder, so I will use you two to change my taste!"

"I think it must be quite interesting to play with this little girl in front of you..."

Hearing this, before Lu Chen could say anything, Lin Jing, who was hiding behind him, was already shaking with anger. She gritted her teeth and said, "This bastard actually dared to tease me. I'm so angry!"

"When I get back, I'm going to tell my dad. No, I'm going to tell Uncle Diao, I'm going to tell Uncle Hu! Let them beat this bastard to death or cripple him!"

"I've grown up like this, and this is the first time I've met a bastard who dares to tease me. Who does he think he is..."

Lu Chen ignored Lin Jing's chattering, and looked at the two people opposite him with a serious look. With a wave of his right hand, countless purple flames gushed out from his body, gathering into a blazing purple fire sword in his hand!

Great divine art, Daluo Tianyan Sword!
"There's no point in talking any more. Young Master Liu, you and I are both First-Rank Supremes. Do you dare to fight alone?"

"Fight alone? Do you think I'm a fool? Elder Mu, take them down for me, don't hold back!"

Liu Ming smiled grimly, waved his hand, and asked the black-robed old man behind him to take action.

Behind him, the old man in black robe took a step forward, and a vast amount of spiritual energy burst out. His whole body exuded a cold and gloomy aura, which instantly froze a mountain under his feet.

Lu Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, and with a flick of his sleeve, five spirit beads the size of human heads emerged, emitting five different lusters, surrounding his body and forming a colorful barrier.

They were the five low-grade divine artifacts with five elements attributes that were previously obtained from the Dragon Demon Palace.

The five elements are mutually beneficial, and the power of this set of artifacts is suddenly greatly increased. In terms of defense, it is not inferior to that of mid-grade artifacts.

"No wonder you're so confident! It turns out you possess a set of spirit beads comparable to mid-grade divine artifacts. Unfortunately, I'm telling you today that the huge gap between the early and mid-stage Supremes can't be bridged by just a small divine artifact!"

The old man in black robe laughed hoarsely, his tone was cold, and a dark ocean vaguely appeared behind him. The surging dark spiritual energy roared and moved, and he pointed a finger into the air.

boom!
As he pointed his finger, the space seemed to be distorted, and a dark beam of light about several hundred feet long shot out. The cold air was pressing, the wind was biting, countless frosts fell from the sky, and the surrounding temperature dropped suddenly.

This was just a casual pointing of the finger by the old man in black robe, but the power was far more terrifying than the full-strength attack of the Supreme Yellow Dragon using his Supreme Dharma Body!
Lu Chen thrust out a sword, and a dazzling purple rainbow of light shot out from his hand. Purple flames swept out across the sky, whistling past!

boom!
The dark light column collided with the purple rainbow. At the moment of collision, brilliant light shot up into the sky, and even the light of day became much dimmer, making people unable to help but close their eyes.

In just a few breaths of time, the dark light column had swallowed up the purple rainbow and shot towards the colorful area!

boom!
The colorful light curtain withstood the attack head-on, and dense cracks appeared on its surface. The light dimmed instantly, and then it shattered with a loud bang, and five spirit beads fell to the ground.

The old man in black robe looked around and was shocked. There was no one in sight at the place where the spirit pearl fell.

He suddenly turned around and looked, and was about to shout.

But behind him, from where Liu Ming was, came a loud dragon roar, accompanied by a faint greeting.

"It's rude not to reciprocate, Brother Liu, please take my sword!"
