Tian Du City.
The Sword Card Master Association.
Lu Ming returned with Zhou Yun and the teenager.
He had originally planned to leave Zhou Yun at the hotel to recuperate. However, considering this lady’s hopeless addiction to Sichuan opera, he simply brought her back.
“Make arrangements to treat their wounds,” Lu Ming instructed.
“Understood.”
Looking at the pair covered in blood, Li Haoran knew what to do.
Hence…
He hired an external therapist to specially treat the duo.
The therapist rushed over late at night. After gaining an understanding of the situation and how the wounds formed, his expression became odd.
Well….
It was like a magical fantasy.
The lady had been stabbed.
The teenager had been simultaneously stabbed by the president and the lady.
Damn it! What games are you guys playing?!
Just at this moment, a news report appeared on a nearby screen.
“This afternoon, energy fluctuations were detected at Huyang Hotel, causing fear among the cultivators nearby. The police rushed to the location in time. After investigations, two men and a woman were found in the hotel having gone overboard with their playing and causing a stabbing incident with wounds and bleeding. We would like to appeal to the public. Treasure your life and maintain social stability and harmony.”
Shush!
There was a sudden silence in the room.
The therapist swept his gaze across the two. From puzzled and strange, his feelings ultimately turned into shock.
“Youngsters really know how to have fun,” the therapist exclaimed in amazement.
The teenager in white was speechless.
This situation…
Forget it.
There was nothing to explain.
Anyway, the situation had come to a close.
Zhou Yun’s injuries were still fine as she had only been stabbed once. Therefore, she was close to recovery. However, the wounds on the teenager were rather severe.
Even if they were to treat them with energy, he would need a few days to recover.
“You’ll be fine after lying in bed for a few days,” the therapist said.
“Okay.”
The teenager understood.
“You stay here and treat your wounds first,” Zhou Yun consoled him.
“I’m looking for the president. I’ll come and keep you company tomorrow.”
“Okay.”
The teenager responded instinctively and then came to his senses.
Wait a minute…
He looked at the sky outside. Hey! It is already very late! What are you trying to do by looking for him at this hour?
“I…”
He opened his mouth but the young lady had already left.
Sigh.
The teenager was annoyed with himself. If he had been braver…
After a long while…
“What is your name?”
The therapist cast a sideways glance at him.
“Me?”
Inexplicably, the teenager in white was agitated. Finally, someone was asking about his name. “My name is…”
“Wait a minute.”
Looking at the wound that tore due to the teenager’s over-excitement, the therapist pressed him back onto the bed. “Forget it. A simp does not deserve a name.”
The teenager was speechless.
Damn it! Why did you ask me then?!!!
“What is a simp?” he asked quizzically.
“I accidentally heard the president say this in the past.”
The therapist glanced at him. “I remember that he was scolding Li Ergou at that time.”
“Oh.”
The teenager seemed to have understood a little.
Oh.
Senior Ergou…
Therefore… simp is not something unacceptable then?
He heard that Senior Ergou had had deep feelings for that lady. Therefore, a simp should be referring to a sentimental person?
The teenager seemed to have understood a little.
Forget it.
He was not in a good mood now and could not be bothered with this.
However, he looked outside the windows of his room. That huge room upstairs seemed to be the President’s office. He could see some silhouettes from where he was.
Why exactly does Yun-er want to look for the President?!
…
Right then…
At the office.
Lu Ming was trying to understand the situation from Miss Zhou Yun side.
Actually, the matter was very simple. Something happened in the legacy site many years ago and the young lady’s body had mutated. As a result, she possessed two consciousnesses.
“Understood.”
Lu Ming was not surprised.
As someone who was deeply ‘poisoned’ by dramas in his past life, a split personality was not a big deal. He had even seen people with seven or 24 split personalities.
The cause of dissociative identity disorder is closely associated with childhood trauma.
That young girl?
Coincidentally, she fit the criteria.
She had suffered a huge blow during her childhood…
Her powerful parents had died on a legacy site. Having faced such intense reminders of life and death at that time, it was understandable that she developed a split personality.
“So…
“I don’t think you can remember what happened many years ago, right?”
Lu Ming asked.
“I still remember them.”
Miss Zhou Yun blinked her eyes.
“Uh.
“I am referring to your parents…”
Lu Ming said gingerly. He was afraid of agitating the young lady and evoking her other personality.
“I still remember them.”
After pondering, Zhou Yun said, “I remember everything very clearly. At that time, we encountered a strangely-colored flower at the legacy site. And a powerful living creature was guarding it. Mom pestered Dad, saying that she had not received this kind of Chinese Valentine’s Day present for a long time…
“Afterward, they went over to the flower but died before a fight even occurred.”
Lu Ming was dumbstruck.
Wait a minute.
Your parents actually died like that!
Damn!
Furthermore, this young lady did not seem to be suffering from PSTD (post‐traumatic stress disorder) during her entire narration of the incident. Clearly, she remembered all the details right from the start!
Oh, damn!
He had been misled by Cha Do Hyun [1. Cha Do Hyun is the male protagonist in the drama ‘Kill Me heal Me’ who has seven split personalities.]!
→_→
“Then your consciousness…”
Lu Ming was curious.
“Actually, my parents are quite powerful.”
Zhou Yun sighed at this point of the conversation. “Although I have almost forgotten what they looked like, I remember that the living creature was also severely injured and had gone into a slumber.
“At that time, I was exhausted and hungry from crying. So, I ate the flower.”
Lu Ming was silent.
Alright.
The plot seemed to be quite different from his imagination?!
Therefore…
This lady did not have a split personality. In essence, the source of her odd character was the exotic flower which had tempted her parents!
“Afterward, the seniors rushed over.
“They inquired about the details. However, I was too young at that time and could not remember anything. I didn’t explain the situation clearly and I am also not very certain about what happened now. Since I grew up, I have been investigating this kind of flower but to no avail. I only know that I fall unconscious sometimes.
“So…
“I graduated from my masters in cultivation theory, spirit body nurturing, and human anatomy studies. I then found some clues. This situation may have something to do with spirit bodies!”
Zhou Yun looked serious and grave.
“Spirit bodies?”
Lu Ming was taken aback.
This matter was associated with a spirit body as well?
“Yes.
“Spirit bodies.”
Zhou Yun was back to that intelligent lady whom he had first met. “I suspect that the flower contained too much energy and it changed my body constitution. It made me become a genius. But I was too young. As a result of a large influx of energy, certain parts of my body could have mutated!
“Or…
“Nurtured a spirit body.”
Zhou Yun analyzed calmly.
The more Lu Ming listened, the more ridiculous he felt.
Therefore…
Zhou Yun was saying that a spirit body was born inside her body because of that flower!
Lu Ming would never have believed this in the past, but after experiencing matters related to the Will-O-Wisp Card, he could not refute this possibility.
“Can you sense where it is?”
Lu Ming asked.
Zhou Yun crossed both her hands in front of her chest. “Sometimes… here feels odd.”
Lu Ming was expressionless.
Young lady, please behave yourself.
“But it’s not constant.
“Sometimes, I sense it in other parts.”
Zhou Yun said calmly, “She is inside my body and becomes more powerful as I cultivate. She occupies my body and then falls into a deep sleep after consuming all my energy.
“I am not too sure where she is either.
“It is possible that she is everywhere.
“Furthermore…”
Zhou Yun rubbed her tummy. “According to life sciences, the conception of a spirit body may occur here.”
Ss——
Lu Ming gasped a breath of energy.
Fine.
Spirit bodies really know how to pick a place.
“That’s why I came to look for you.”
At this point of the conversation, Zhou Yun felt somewhat embarrassed. “I came to seek your help to treat me. Of course, she knows about this too. Therefore, she suddenly appeared to assassinate you…”
She was integrated with the spirit body.
She came to look for Lu Ming. How could the spirit body not know?
As such…
The situation of the sudden ‘face-changing’ and attempt at assassinating Lu Ming occurred.
“Understood.”
Lu Ming rubbed his head.
“I heard that the Sword Card Master Association has a professional spirit body department that can intimidate my spirit body!
“So…
“I hope that you can help me destroy this spirit body. Regardless of where this spirit body was born in my body, it’ll be fine if you can resolve this for me. I am willing to pay any price for this!”
Zhou Yun said seriously.
“Any price?”
Lu Ming’s eyes shone and he suddenly felt excited.
“Yes.”
Zhou Yun was certain.
She was telling the truth.
She was willing to do this at all costs!
Of course.
Most importantly, before she came, she had already investigated Lu Ming. He was kind, pure-hearted and had unrivaled looks.
She trusted her own judgment.
“Does this include… becoming mine?”
Lu Ming’s heart was stirring.
Ah?
Zhou Yun’s heart skipped a beat.
These words…
She clenched both her fists and thought of running away. She then thought of the seniors’ opinions on Lu Ming and Lu Ming’s past deeds.
“I am willing to do sp!”
Zhou Yun had a firm gaze in her eyes.
“Is that so?”
Lu Ming said excitedly, “In that case… You have to join the Sword Card Master Association.”
“Huh?”
“I’ll help you to solve the problem but you have to join the Sword Card Master Association. How about that?”
“That works!”
Zhou Yun was elated.
For her, switching vocations was not a problem.
“Okay.”
Lu Ming was thrilled.
Done!
As long as he could get rid of the spirit body in Zhou Yun’s body… Regardless of where the spirit body was born or what spirit it was, he had gotten rid of it!
This was an increase of 20%!
He had to take it down!!!
Just at this moment, Xiaobai entered the room.
“Master.
“Have some tea.”
Xiaobai served the two some tea.
“Well…”
Lu Ming smiled faintly.
Xiaobai put down the tea and was shocked when she looked at Zhou Yun. “Eh?”
“What did you see?”
Lu Ming’s heart stirred slightly.
“There seems to be a small man flying inside her body… Well… That’s not a small man. It seems to be a flower…” stunned, Xiaobai said.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Zhou Yun was speechless.
Oh.
So, some of her organs had not turned into spirits.
The thing that was fluttering in Zhou Yun’s body was actually the flower?!
An ordinary spirit body could not possibly survive after leaving its habitat. Therefore, they had to rush to other people’s Sea of Consciousness, attach themselves to it and live on!
But, this flower…
“It is not in my Sea of Consciousness!”
Zhou Yun was very certain.
If that flower had been in her Sea of Consciousness, the seniors would have killed it long ago.
“Xiaobai, can you see where it is?”
Lu Ming looked solemn.
“Over here.”
Xiaobai’s gaze circled the inside of Zhou Yun’s body and landed on her right hand.
“It’s now here,” Xiaobai said.
“In my hand?”
Zhou Yun was shocked. She seemed to have recalled something. “I think, I plucked the flower with this hand. Perhaps it integrated with me then?”
“Is it inside her palm?”
Lu Ming asked.
“No.”
Xiaobai shook her head. Her soft and tender finger pointed at one of the fingers. “It’s over here.”
“Understood.”
Zhou Yun was very calm.
Shush!
She took out her dagger instantly and hacked the thumb of her right hand.
Xiaobai was silent.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Damn!
Do you need to be that ruthless?!
Bang!
There was a crisp and clear sound.
The Original Card drifted over and blocked the dagger.
“Huh?”
Zhou Yun was puzzled.
“Do you want to rap?”
Lu Ming was expressionless.
“No.”
“Do you have armor?”
“No.”
“Why are you chopping up your finger then?!”
Lu Ming was becoming frustrated.
“Young lady, shouldn’t you consider the situation objectively before self-harming?”
Lu Ming’s head was aching.
He already had enough headaches because of the teenager in white!
But, looking at what had just happened, Miss Zhou Yun was also that reckless!
Is this a joke?!
Where did your intelligence go?!
“It’s alright.
“I can afford a Recovery Card. It will grow again.”
Zhou Yun was very calm. In comparison to a finger, the spirit body which had tortured her for many years was a greater problem. This little sacrifice was nothing.
However, just as she prepared to chop her fingers again.
“Eh?”
Xiaobai suddenly exclaimed in shock, “It has run away!”
Run away?
The hearts of Lu Ming and Zhou Yun skipped a beat and then they saw Xiaobai’s eyes moving and sweeping across Zhou Yun’s body, seemingly following the path of the flower…
In the end…
It landed in front of the lady’s chest.
Shush!
The entire meeting room turned silent.
Gritting her teeth, Zhou Yun lifted the dagger twice but eventually could not muster enough courage to…
“I-is it here?”
Zhou Yun felt somewhat exhausted.
“Well…”
Xiaobai’s young and tender face was filled with worry. “It seems to be hiding in your heart.”
Heart…
Lu Ming and Zhou Yun glanced at each other.
“How can it run everywhere?!”
Zhou Yun was very puzzled.
It was true.
As someone who had earned three masters degrees – human anatomy, spirit body nurturing and cultivation theory, she was very well aware of the survival concept of a spirit body. It could not run everywhere!
A spirit body could only move around its living space!
Hypothetically, if that flower had changed her heart, it could only move around in her heart and not scurry about her entire body!
Unless…
It had already integrated into one body with Zhou Yun!
Zhou Yun and Lu Ming looked at each other and suddenly figured out everything.
Seemingly, she had understood.
That flower had been changing her constantly since it had entered her body! The so-called talent refinement was basically nurturing itself!
She was the embryo!
Once the nurturing succeeded, she would be replaced!
Perhaps…
Many years ago, the flower’s movements were only restricted to a certain part of her body. But now, it could already appear everywhere in her body and she could not dispel it at all!
It was like… cancer cells, advanced stage.
If she had come to look for Lu Ming earlier and met Xiaobai earlier, perhaps the problem would be solved after she chopped off one finger. However, it was already too late.
At the thought of this…
Zhou Yun looked ashen.
She was too smart. In that moment, she had already thought of the consequences of her actions…
If she were to destroy that flower, she would also die!
Now, they were already completely integrated!
They had to live or die together!
Buzz—
There was a flash of light.
At this moment, one eye of Zhou Yun suddenly turned grey. A mocking expression emerged on that half of her face. Staring at Lu Ming, she said, “Oo…”
Bam!
Lu Ming raised his hand and flung his palm. Half of Zhou Yun’s face swelled instantly. That strange and mysterious expression, mingled with a dumbfounded look, retreated.
“T-thank you.”
Zhou Yun was jolted awake.
“Don’t mention it.”
Lu Ming squinted his eyes.
Well….
They had integrated!
If that was the case, it was a very troublesome matter!
Exotic flower spirit body…
% talent…
Lu Ming was very tempted and he was reluctant to give it up!
In front of him…
Zhou Yun had a despaired look on her face.
Her despaired face would occasionally become very strange. There seemed to be waves of haziness rippling through it. Once in a while, a mocking glance would land on Lu Ming and then disappear immediately afterward.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Damn it.
Can a flower get that much screen time nowadays?!
Snort! Snort!
Do you really think I can’t deal with you?
Furthermore…
Live or die together?
Hehe.
Lu Ming suddenly thought of an idea. “There might be a way.”
“Huh?”
Rays of hopes emerged in Zhou Yun’s eyes.
“There… might be a way?”
“Well…
“A simple and crude way.”
Lu Ming smiled faintly. “Miss Zhou Yun, if you trust me, prepare to do a vocation switch to Sword Card Master. Leave the rest to me!”
“Okay.”
Zhou Yun was calm and collected. “I’ll do that now.”
With that…
After reading the information about Sword Card Master, she destroyed her vocation core on the spot.
Lu Ming was speechless.
This was such a decisive young lady.
Buzz—
Buzz—
Energy circulated.
Zhou Yun completed the switch very quickly, officially becoming a five-star Sword Card Master!
That exotic flower’s energy and converted talent came into play at this moment. Zhou Yun had become stronger despite the switch!
Even her vocation core was gradually changing colors.
This flower…
It was gradually eroding all of Zhou Yun!
Cheez—
Cheez—
There was a seeming cold glint on Zhou Yun’s face.
With the re-cultivation, the domineering exotic flower spirit body seized the opportunity and took hold of the majority of Zhou Yun’s powers!
“What do we do next?” Zhou Yun said nervously.
“Come here.”
Lu Ming pulled her hand. “Close your eyes and open your Sea of Consciousness…”
Bang!
The Sea of Consciousness of the two were connected.
Right then, the flower awoke instantly.
It looked over and could sense the powerful energy from Lu Ming’s Sea of Consciousness. It could feel how terrifying the energy surrounding Lu Ming was…
Not only that.
There was another great attraction in Lu Ming’s body!
If…
If it were to erode it…
Bang!
There were flashes of blood.
“Heh…”
There was a strange clamor!
The exotic flower had transformed into a bloody streak, sweeping across Lu Ming’s Sea of Consciousness. However, after a mere half second, a terrifying, screeching sound of rounding a bend could be heard.
Bang! Bang!
The Sea of Consciousness was shaking.
“Tsk tsk.”
Lu Ming was filled with emotions.
Do you know why I am never afraid of spirit bodies?
This is because most of spirit bodies are very wretched. They have a greedy, basic instinct of devouring other spirit bodies… Therefore, it could not help but go to my Sea of Consciousness.
“Am I right?”
He glanced at a certain sword beside him.
Xiao-Xiaojian was speechless.
Will you die if you don’t speak now?!
“Hehe.”
Lu Ming glanced at the Sea of Consciousness and saw a black figure. Infuriated by the disturbance to its sleep, it pressed itself onto the flower and shoved it into the card furiously…
Crash!
Once!
Crash!
Twice!
…
The process was never ending.
The Original Card originally did not have any cracks. With the collisions, a crack formed and the exotic flower spirit body was shoved inside it…
After a long while…
The world fell silent.
The Sea of Consciousness was disconnected quietly.
Zhou Yun stared at the Original Card in her hands with a dumbstruck expression. The exotic flower was flashing constantly on the card and could no longer come out.
The exotic flower spirit body had been shoved into the Original Card.
It was still very powerful!
It still shared life and death with Zhou Yun!
It was still refining Zhou Yun’s body!
It was a pity…
It could no longer occupy Zhou Yun’s body.
“I… am freed?”
Zhou Yun was dazed.
Just as she was about to give up, she had gotten rid of that flower… Lu Ming said he had a way and it actually worked!
“Thank you!”
Zhou Yun was shaking all over.
“It’s alright.”
Lu Ming smiled faintly.
Everyone was merely obtaining what they needed.
Of course, in order to seal the exotic flower spirit body, he was afraid that Zhou Yun had to be a Sword Card Master forever! It no longer mattered whether she joined the association.
“Nothing that I do will be able to repay my debt.”
Zhou Yun knelt and thanked Lu Ming with a grave and serious expression. “Henceforth, you will be my benefactor and master!”
She was well aware that since she had become a Sword Card Master, she was a disciple of the Sword Card Master Association! Furthermore, to be able to dispel the exotic flower spirit body that easily, Lu Ming’s ability…
She knew what she should do.
“That’s no problem.”
Lu Ming helped her up.
“Is there something that I can do for you?”
Zhou Yun said seriously.
“Yes.”
Lu Ming did not decline her offer. “Come here.”
Shush!
He showed her the name list of geniuses written by the teenager in white. “Help me refine this name list. Write down the names of your friends and everything that you know about them.”
“Huh?”
Zhou Yun looked at the name list and saw her own name on it.
“Do you mean…”
Zhou Yun guessed, “You want to recruit all the genius teenage cultivators to the Sword Card Master Association?”
“Not bad.”
Lu Ming had made up his mind.
“You have great foresight,” Zhou Yun exclaimed with amazement.
As an association that had just started to develop, it was a waste of time and energy to focus on quantity. Therefore, it would do as long as he could make these geniuses join the Sword Card Master Association!
“Leave this to me,” Zhou Yun said seriously.
As an Assassin, she had her avenues.
The name list from the teenager was too shabby and childish. She would refine this list in her own way and give Lu Ming a satisfactory outcome.
“Master.
“Please tell me your requirements and objectives. I will give you the most perfect name list!”
Zhou Yun’s exquisite face was full of confidence.
“My objective?
“It’s very simple.”
Lu Ming smiled faintly and opened the world map. “Foundation is necessary for the development of the Sword Card Master Association and we can focus on a small goal to build this foundation.
“For example—
“On this map…
“We’ll note all the geniuses that we see and know.”
Shush!
There was suddenly silence in the air.
After a long while…
Zhou Yun stood up firmly and there was a passionate gaze in her eyes.
Tonight, she had been reborn.
This was a new beginning!
“I understand now, Master.”
Zhou Yun got up respectfully.
The name list from the teenager in white was too shabby. She had enough detailed information to write a book! A name list was simply not enough. She needed a booklet!
Hence, she requested a blank book to create a new name list and drew up the list again. She combined both her social circles and that of the teenager in white and then recorded all the information of the geniuses.
Of course, this was only the base.
Next, she would use all ways and means at her disposal to refine this name list!
However, when she flipped to the title page of the booklet, she paused for a moment suddenly. After pondering, she added a sentence in small fonts.
‘All that I see and know will become a Sword Card Master!’— Lu Ming.
