On your wedding night, stay with your godbrother; the Empress is practically throwing herself at you

The streets of Nancheng late at night.

The streetlights cast a dim yellow glow.

Lu Chuan walked down the deserted street, and the night breeze helped him sober up a bit.

Then he mentally called out to the system.

"system."

"About what happened just now, did you forget something?"

That damn system played dead for half a month, but it was quite proactive just now in issuing an early warning.

The crisis is now over.

Shouldn't we give them some rewards?

really.

The next second, the system's exaggerated voice rang in my mind.

【Ding! 】

[The host is absolutely amazing!]

[Faced with the future supreme Spirit Emperor, who will shake the world, the host, with only the body of a Martial Spirit, not only withstood the opponent's mental attack but also slapped the opponent's spirit beast unconscious!]

Such a feat is truly unprecedented and will likely never be repeated!

[Special reward: Sixty years of refined cultivation!]

Lu Chuan stumbled and almost lost his balance.

Sixty years.

What the hell!

Are they going all out this time?

Before he could react, an extremely terrifying heat surged forth from the depths of his dantian!

"Hmm!"

He groaned, and his muscles tensed instantly.

pain!

And be happy!

The feeling was like being shoved inside someone in an instant.

It was packed full.

It's a really strange feeling.

Originally, he was stuck at the bottleneck of Seven-Star Martial Spirit.

It was instantly shattered by the true energy that had been channeled into his body for sixty years.

In just a few breaths, Lu Chuan's aura began to surge wildly.

Eight-star Martial Spirit!

Nine-Star Martial Spirit!

Peak Martial Spirit!

"Click click click".

The surrounding air seemed to distort because of the energy emanating from his body.

Click click.

The asphalt road beneath his feet was so heavy that it almost cracked open right from the bottom of his feet.

Fine cracks appeared.

"Squeak?!"

Wukong, who was in her arms, was awakened by the heat.

I opened my eyes groggily.

It felt like I was hugging a giant furnace, not my father.

Startled, it quickly scrambled onto a lamppost by the roadside, staring wide-eyed at the man below who was "glowing".

"Break it for me, you bastard!"

Lu Chuan gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead, and let out a low growl.

The pure essence accumulated over sixty years within his body finally coalesced into a torrent, crashing violently against the massive barrier that stood between the Martial Spirit and the Martial King.

boom!

It felt as if a thunderclap had exploded in my mind.

Then, the world changed.

The originally dimly lit street suddenly became incredibly clear in Lu Chuan's eyes.

He could hear the sound of rats crawling through the sewers hundreds of meters away, feel the movement of dust particles in the air, and even vaguely sense the faint "momentum" drifting between heaven and earth.

That is a power that only a Martial King can control.

The power of heaven and earth!

"call--"

Lu Chuan let out a long breath.

One-Star Martial King!

Become!

"Damn it..."

"Awesome!"

If outsiders knew that someone had broken through to the Martial King realm simply by eating barbecue and walking down the street, they would probably be so angry that they would vomit blood on the spot.

Others broke through to the Martial King level.

Which one of them didn't spend months, or even years, in seclusion?

Prepare various elixirs to aid your practice, and be extremely careful to prevent yourself from going astray in your cultivation.

Only someone like Lu Chuan, who's practically cheating, can level up just by walking.

……

At the same time.

Nancheng Zoo.

Female staff dormitory.

Su Ling'er was anxiously standing by the table.

On the table, Xiaoqing was lying on a soft towel.

The red oil all over its body had been washed off, but its feathers were still wet, making it look like a drowned rat, extremely pitiful.

"Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing, wake up!"

Su Ling'er was extremely anxious, and her eyes were red.

Beastmasters are different from other martial artists.

From the very beginning of their cultivation, they would form a contract with a natal spirit beast, sharing life and death with the beast tamer.

Capability sharing.

It can be said that the stronger the beast tamer, the stronger the beast tamer.

However, what if something unexpected happens to the tamed beast?

Beastmasters themselves will naturally be affected.

For example, if Xiaoqing were to die in some accident right now, Su Ling'er's own strength would be greatly diminished.

They might even die on the spot.

Just then.

Fortunately, Xiaoqing's eyelids twitched slightly, and she finally slowly opened her eyes.

It's just her original bright little eyes.

At this moment, however, he was filled with confusion and a blank expression.

It was as if they had no idea what had happened.

"grumble?"

"who I am?"

"Where am I?"

Why do I have a burning pain in my butt?

Xiaoqing said blankly.

Upon seeing Xiao Qing awaken, Su Ling'er burst into tears of joy.

"Very good."

"Xiaoqing, you're finally awake! You scared me to death!"

"Chirp?"

"Owner……"

Xiaoqing tilted her head, still looking bewildered.

It has amnesia.

To be precise, the memory of that brief moment was shattered.

It only remembers that it was cheering for its owner, and then...

And that was the end of it.

How did I get back?

Su Ling'er quickly examined him.

Only after confirming that Xiaoqing had only suffered a mental shock and temporary amnesia, and that her health had not been fundamentally damaged, did they breathe a long sigh of relief.

But then...

This was a surge of intense anger.

"That Lu Chuan!"

"Damn it, what a bastard!"

Su Ling'er gritted her teeth, her little fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

"To do such a cruel thing to such a cute little bird is absolutely inhuman!"

"This person is a psychopath, even going after birds!"

"I thought he was a senior in our Beast Taming lineage, but now it seems that even if he were, he would definitely have been expelled."

Xiaoqing has lost her memory.

But seeing how angry its owner was, it joined in, barking indignantly.

"Chirp chirp chirp!"

"Kill him! Kill that pervert!"

After venting her frustrations, Su Ling'er gradually calmed down.

Although Lu Chuan was despicable, he was indeed very strange.

I'm definitely no match for him right now, and a head-on confrontation would only result in me suffering losses.

"It seems that we need to plan this carefully if we want to take revenge."

Su Ling'er pushed up her glasses, her eyes sharp.

"Besides, I can't waste all my time on this pervert."

"Our true purpose in coming to the South City is to find the mysterious senior who slew the Martial King!"

"If only that senior would accept me as his disciple."

"With Master's help, wouldn't Lu Chuan be easily captured?"

Think about this.

Su Ning'er's eyes lit up.

Unfortunately, that senior is nowhere to be found, and they can only search for him through other means.

Willows swaying in the wind!

That mysterious senior's only publicly announced disciple!

"Although Liu Fuyao has gone to the provincial capital, her home is still in the southern part of the city. If I go to her house and investigate, I might be able to find some clues left behind by that senior!"

Thinking of this, Su Ling'er couldn't sit still for a moment.

"Xiaoqing, let's go!"

"Let's take action tonight!"

"Let's go to Yunhua Residential Area!"

The man and the bird quickly changed into black bodysuits and, like two ghosts, silently climbed out of the dormitory window and disappeared into the vast night.

And their target, coincidentally...

It was Lu Chuan's family...

Upstairs.
