“No need to dress him,” Su Youli said, her gaze sweeping over Lu Mingfei, her voice tinged with coldness. “Let him get some cold; it’s what he owes you.”
The chill enveloped Lu Mingfei, making him even more alarmed.
He didn't dare to delay and immediately lowered his voice to Erii, saying, "Don't move, keep your clothes on!"
Having clothes is better than having no clothes at all.
If they anger this woman, they might both end up freezing in this icy wasteland.
“You haven’t answered the question I just asked,” Su Youli’s voice grew even colder.
Lu Mingfei was startled and quickly nodded: "Yes, I have met her. She is a girl named Xuanling."
"It really was her." Su Youli didn't seem surprised by this answer.
She looked directly at Lu Mingfei: "Is there anything else you want to ask? Hurry up!"
Lu Mingfei didn't dare hesitate and immediately raised his biggest question:
"What exactly is the Palace of Fixed Boundaries? System Bro... how did you offend them?"
Su Youli parted her lips slightly, her words icy:
"The Palace of Fixed Boundaries is a vast power created by several Celestial Venerables. Its influence extends throughout the heavens and permeates almost every multiverse."
"They govern all sectors under the banner of 'pacifying the world and maintaining order,' but in reality, they are nothing more than local tyrants who occupy territory and act arrogantly."
"Until one day, the 'boss's' beloved girl died at the hands of a manager of the Dingjie Palace."
"Then the boss went berserk and killed the manager."
"This killing created a blood feud with the Dingjie Palace. The Dingjie Palace sent nine sword-wielders to attack the boss, and without exception, they all died at the boss's hands."
“Beating the younger one naturally attracted the attention of the older one, and one of the Heavenly Venerables originally intended to personally take action to suppress him.”
"In the end, for some reason, he stopped, but he sent his top generals to relentlessly pursue the boss."
That's the reason why.
Lu Mingfei was momentarily dazed, as if he were listening to a bizarre fantasy novel.
The heavens? The multiverse? The scale of the worlds involved is simply breathtaking.
On the other hand... isn't the system guy too fierce? He directly killed ten people from the Palace of Fixed Boundaries?
He clicked his tongue inwardly, a lingering fear rising in his heart:
Fortunately, I had followed the system's instructions before, otherwise... I would probably have been reduced to ashes by now.
Chapter 43 Xuanling
Lu Mingfei recalled the scene when he met Xuanling before he came here.
The girl was not surprised by his question, but slowly stood up—her feet did not touch the ground, but were suspended in the air about ten centimeters above the ground.
Lu Mingfei frowned slightly. The girl in front of him looked exactly like the female version of Lu Mingfei that the system had created for him before.
He initially thought the girl was the system guy, but now he has changed his mind.
Because her aura was completely different from that of the system guy.
The system gave him the feeling of a king who controlled everything, while this girl gave him the feeling of a sword, a sword stained with countless blood, and that killing intent was surging from her body, instantly engulfing Lu Mingfei.
If Lu Mingfei hadn't activated his forced calming skill at that moment, he probably would have already been defeated.
The girl did not approach Lu Mingfei immediately. Instead, she walked on air to the full-length mirror in the corner of the room and straightened her clothes with her back to him.
Lu Mingfei's gaze followed the girl's movements, and even though the girl had her back to him completely unguarded, he did not take the initiative to make a move.
A stunningly beautiful stranger dared to barge into the room of a young man in the prime of his youth late at night.
If she's not mentally ill or infatuated with a young man, then she must be very confident in her abilities.
You could tell from her casual movements that she didn't take Lu Mingfei seriously at all.
It was probably a few seconds, or maybe longer. Lu Mingfei didn't calculate the exact time, but he knew that the Forced Calm skill would consume mental energy.
In other words, he has a limited time to remain calm.
He could no longer remain silent.
"Who are you?" Lu Mingfei asked calmly.
The girl turned around when she heard Lu Mingfei's question.
The girl's gaze casually swept over Lu Mingfei.
“My name is Xuanling,” the girl said coldly. “I belong to the Dingjie Palace and am the twelfth Hunter God under the Yin Yang Grand Celestial Venerable.”
Lu Mingfei's thoughts raced. The name Dingjie Palace, Yin Yang Grand Celestial Venerable, Hunter God General... these names sounded incredibly powerful.
But who is Lu Mingfei?
A hopelessly unlucky kid encountered a system that miraculously changed his fate just two days ago.
The only reason this girl named Xuanling approached him was because it was related to the system.
Xuanling raised her hand, and Lu Mingfei was about to do something when he found himself completely unable to move, as if the space and time around him had been frozen.
"According to the laws of the Boundary Palace, anyone who has contact with the notorious criminal Lu Mingfei is guilty of the same crime!" the girl said coldly. "Lu Mingfei, you are under arrest!"
Lu Mingfei was completely confused. What was all this about?
Is Lu Mingfei a major sinner?
He hasn't even killed a chicken all these years, so how can he be considered a major sinner?
Xuanling didn't care about his thoughts at all. She raised her hand and grabbed, and Lu Mingfei saw a ball of light the size of an egg fly from between his eyebrows to the girl's palm.
A golden-green light emanated from the girl's palm, crackling around the ball of light and dyeing the entire room in a golden-green hue.
A moment later, the halo faded.
A hint of doubt appeared on her previously indifferent face. She frowned slightly and glanced at Lu Mingfei again.
With a wave of her hand, the ball of light flew into Lu Mingfei's brow again.
"You're lucky you escaped with your life," the girl said casually.
"What do you mean?" Lu Mingfei pressed.
"Literally, it's amazing you survived him." The girl sneered. "By now, at least eight or ten thousand Lu Mingfeis have died at his hands!"
At this moment, Lu Mingfei really wanted to yell, "Get out, riddle maker!"
Why are these big shots always so mysterious, as if they'd rather say a single word than have someone write a 10,000-word reflection?
But now he is the fish on the chopping block, and others are the butchers; he has no choice.
"Who is he?" he asked again.
The girl explained:
Do you know about parallel universes?
Without waiting for Lu Mingfei's response, the girl continued:
"The system guy you mentioned is Lu Mingfei from another world."
She casually tossed a jade pendant that gleamed with black and white light onto the bed.
“Take this. If you hear from him, contact me immediately,” she said coldly. “Remember, don’t trust him.”
Before she could finish speaking, the girl vanished into thin air.
The moment the girl disappeared, Lu Mingfei felt that he had regained control of his body.
Under the effect of the forced calming skill, he did not panic. He simply walked calmly to the bedside and stared at the jade pendant.
He didn't pick up the jade pendant immediately, but instead pondered how credible Xuanling's words were.
According to her, System Bro is Lu Mingfei from another world.
Many Lu Mingfei died at the hands of the System Brother.
As for why the System Brother wanted to kill Lu Mingfei from other worlds, the reason is unknown.
And then there's that Dingjie Palace, the Yin-Yang Grand Celestial Venerable, they sound really powerful. How did System Bro offend them?
And the strangest thing is that the girl had said he was guilty and even arrested him before.
But after examining the ball of light, the matter was dropped.
Instead, they left behind a jade pendant as a means of communication.
I even reminded myself not to trust the system guy.
Even under this forced calm, Lu Mingfei couldn't figure out the trick.
As time went by, Lu Mingfei suddenly felt dizzy.
He immediately realized that this was because "forced calm" had consumed too much mental energy.
He tried to raise his hand to rub his temples, but his legs gave way and he fell forward.
Pfft!
Everything went black, and his face slammed directly onto the jade pendant.
When he woke up again, he was already in the wooden house.
Lu Mingfei took a deep breath and asked again:
"I have another question: If I don't move away from the Liu family, will it attract Odin?"
Su Youli's eyes flickered slightly, as if she hadn't expected him to ask that.
"Yes," she answered readily.
Lu Mingfei's heart sank.
It seems I have to leave.
Seeing his unpleasant expression, Su Youli continued:
"Actually, whether you move or not, he will cause you trouble sooner or later, so it doesn't matter."
