Chapter 198: Master, Please Don’t Blame Senior Sister

In Chong Yang City.

Somewhere.

The Lu Ming trio glanced at one another.

It was very awkward.

After a long time…

Lu Ming sighed. He decided to kick off from a technical perspective. This could avoid the awkward feelings and also quickly alleviate the effect of his sudden appearance just now…

“You’re learning about becoming a Sword Card Master?”

Lu Ming glanced at Li Haoran.

“Yes.”

Li Haoran smiled bitterly.

After encountering Lu Ming at this moment, he really did not know how to face it…

After all…

He was well aware that Lu Ming was the originator of the Sword Card Master profession and the person writing the guidelines.

“This is not an easy path.”

Lu Ming’s voice was low.

The Sword Card Master was an unknown path. Basically, no one knew what was its future and destination! It might be ultrapowerful but it could also be a dead end!

“I know.”

Li Haoran’s expression was solemn. “That’s why I’m interested.”

This was the first time that he was interested in something.

It might be difficult.

But this was the reason why he liked it!

“Very good.”

Lu Ming was very satisfied.

To have such great ambitions, it seemed that he had really come to his senses.

Alright.

Go ahead to cultivate if you like it.

Just as Li Haoran said, he had found a path that he was interested in after much difficulty. When he wanted to head down this path, at this point in time, was he going to tell him that —

Hey hey. Sorry. This is all fake! I created those lies!

Believe it or not, I will be beaten to death!

Furthermore…

Who said that one could not tread on grounds without a path?

In the past, an elderly senior called Lu Xun said that the world did not have any paths in the beginning, it was only after people walked on it that paths appeared.

Well…

Let’s walk and see.

“Cheers.”

He encouraged him and was prepared to leave.

“Well…”

The teenager in black suddenly spoke, “Don’t you think that there is a problem here. Do you think that you can conveniently avoid the fact that you peeped at us earlier just by asking some questions…”

Lu Ming was speechless.

This stubborn child…

“We were talking about very important things.”

Lu Ming sighed.

“Yes,” Li Haoran confirmed.

“However, peeping is not a good habit…”

The teenager in black was very serious. His eyes widened into a glare. “When did you arrive? How much did you hear and from when did you start listening in?”

Pausing momentarily, Lu Ming suddenly laughed. “I’ve not taken issue with the matter of you trying to assassinate me just now.”

“Uh—”

The face of the teenager in black suddenly changed. He then bowed slightly and said in a sweet voice, “Senior, please take your time to leave.”

“Didn’t you want to assassinate me?”

“Uh, since this idiot has come to his senses, I don’t need to assassinate you anymore. I’m still a virgin and don’t want to die…” the teenager in black said weakly.

Li Haoran could not be bothered with this chap.

“I have some things to ask you.”

Li Haoran suddenly glanced at Lu Ming seriously.

He knew that…

When he decided to take on this path, it meant that he and Lu Ming would be on staggered stages of the path!

Lu Ming pioneered the Sword Card Master!

Lu Ming was at the forefront!

And he…. wanted to lead this vocation to greater heights.

After, Lu Ming had limited energy and resources!

In this world, every vocation needed countless pioneers to refine it before evolving to the current vocation. None of the vocations were simple!

Sword Card Master…

He believed… that he could do it!

Of course.

Before that, he had to master the knowledge that Lu Ming knew, such as the second and third stage guidelines and so on.

“Is there really a card spirit?”

Li Haoran’s expression was serious.

He had just reached this stage and personally read the birth of the card spirit. It was very strange and mysterious. He had not understood it fully up till now.

Such nagging…

Would it really work?

Lu Ming pondered for a moment before saying a maxim “The belief in a thing makes it happen”.

Li Haoran was full of sincerity.

“Spirit body…”

Li Haoran paused for a moment. “Can it really enter the Original Card?”

Buzz—

He summoned the Original Card.

That originally sturdy Original Card was now filled with cracked lines — This was caused by Lu Ming’s collision the last time!

“Okay.”

Lu Ming glanced at it with a resolute gaze.

He did not know about the Original Card of typical folks. However, this Original Card of Li Haoran…

Look, it had already been tempered and cracked to this extent. It was certainly not a problem! From a certain perspective, it would achieve the same amazing outcome as his lightning cracks, albeit in a different way.

“Cracks…”

Lu Ming thought of the process of Brother Cat’s spirit body. “You have to be fast, accurate and stable. If time drags on too long, the cracks may widen…”

What was the outcome of widening the cracks of the Original Card?

Bam.

It would be disintegrated.

“Anyway…

In short.”

Lu Ming summarized seriously, “As long as you’re fast enough, you will definitely be able to shove the spirit body into the Original Card before the latter reacts…”

Li Haoran seemed to be lost in his thoughts.

The teenager in black was speechless.

Oh my goodness!

His family’s idiot was going to be fooled again…

“I will definitely be peerless in my cohort!”

Li Haoran was extremely motivated.

There was never any vocation that dared to say that four-star was invincible!

Except for the Sword Card Master!

How domineering was that?!

Lu Ming was speechless.

Wasn’t all that useless crap!

The entry requirements were top-notch talent, body tempering and massive resources.

First stage, master lamination, and Sword Aura lines.

Second stage, temper the Original Card.

Third stage, the birth of the card spirit.

Which one to three-star could do all of that?

If one had really passed the test to become Sword Card Master and was still bullied by a three-star cultivator, he could really go and die… He was hopeless regardless of his vocation!

What else could he say?

“Way to go.”

Lu Ming smiled faintly and left.

Li Haoran was pondering over the card spirit matters. He was already a Card Creator and he began cultivating when he was at the four-star level. Therefore, he was progressing rapidly!

Obviously, it was much easier to switch from a Card Creator to a Sword Card Master than to re-cultivate from scratch.

After all…

He still had the foundation.

However…

The third stage…

He had to catch a spirit body and shove it in?!

However…

Was it that easy to catch a spirit body?

The appearance of a four-star spirit body in Qing Ming City had caused a great commotion. They did not even catch it. It went to show how rare and precious spirit bodies were.

Besides…

Even if he managed to catch it, would he be able to shove it in?

The nature of the Original Card and the nature of the spirit body… There were too many things to consider!

It was more difficult than ever!

However…

This was precisely the reason why he was interested?

Well…

He would try the second method.

Hence…

Li Haoran faced his Original Card and spoke seriously, “Original Card, Original Card, you have already grown up. You must learn to cultivate by yourself…”

The teenager in black stared at Li Haoran as if the latter was a moron.

He was done for!

He was done for!

His family’s idiot had really been fooled…

At this very moment…

Lu Ming wore a strange expression on his face when he left Chong Yang City.

It was true.

Forget about one Salted Crispy Chicken (nickname for Yan Suqi. In Chinese, Salted Crispy Chicken is pronounced as Yan Su Ji), Comrade Li Haoran was also looking for trouble?

After a long time…

Lu Ming shook his head.

Forget it. He took it that he was giving directions to the lost children. After all, Li Haoran was already in such a miserable state…

However…

Come to think of it…

Besides Li Haoran, was there someone else?

After Lu Ming logged into the account, he looked at the number of readers. There were already a dozen of them. However, as expected, most of them were some presidents, vice presidents or people of equivalent level…

After all, the Sword Card Master was still part of the Card Creators Association.

Those who were really learning Sword Card Master…

He could not find any!

Oo…

Lu Ming thought about it.

After the third stage, he would publish another rule on the Sword Card Master member certification — One could become a true member of the Sword Card Master Association as soon as they completed the third stage.

As for the benefits…

Well…

He could talk about it when there was someone.

Lu Ming conceived the broad guidelines for Sword Card Master.

Of course, only Xiaobai and him who were members currently.

Qing Ming City.

At the shop.

Xiaobai was creating cards very seriously.

Her daily routine was to create Leviathan Cards and read books to widen her knowledge. As for cultivation, she would leave it to the Original Card.

Shush!

Shush!

Another card was created.

Xiaobai happily put away the card.

Right then…

Someone appeared at the doorstep.

“Hello.”

Xiaobai got up and she instantly furrowed her brows. “It’s you.”

She recognized this guy.

Salted Crispy Chicken…

She had seen him during the last competition.

“Hello.”

Yan Suqi’s gaze swept across the shop and was seemingly disappointed. “Is Senior Lu Ming around?”

“Nope.”

Xiaobai shook her head. “Is there anything wrong?”

“When is he coming back?”

Yan Suqi was very disappointed.

He came back this time to specifically look for Senior Lu Ming.

“I don’t know.”

After pondering, Xiaobai said seriously, “You can ask me if you have any questions. I can also note down and help you pass it on to master.”

Lu Ming was not around…

He could also ask Xiaobai, Yan Suqi thought of the last match when this young lady made a move. Her Sword Auras were domineering and stunning!

“Well… Can I look at your Original Card?”

Yan Suqi was somewhat embarrassed.

He was very doubtful.

The Original Card…

Could it really have a card spirit?

“Wait a while.”

After pondering, Xiaobai shouted into the shop, “Original Card, someone is looking for you.”

Whoosh!

A beam of light flashed across.

A glowing card appeared.

Yan Suqi was dumbstruck.

T-there was really a card spirit?!

Buzz—

The Original Card shone.

It circled Yan Suqi, seemingly filled with curiosity.

“How did you do that?”

Yan Suqi was stunned.

“I taught it.”

Xiaobai said matter-of-factly, “I teach it repeatedly. I say to it ‘Original Card, Original Card, you have already grown up. You must learn to cultivate by yourself’ and it learned how to do so eventually.”

Shush!

The Original Card actually nodded seriously.

Yan Suqi’s heart trembled as he looked at the Original Card before him in disbelief. He sensed that faint consciousness and fell into a complete trance.

That afternoon.

Lu Ming returned to Qing Ming City.

However…

What surprised him was another presence in the shop!

That was…

Lu Ming squinted.

In the shop, Xiaobai was sitting in a prim and proper position. Her tiny body was on the chair, and in front of her, a similar-sized figure was holding a cup of tea and bowing to her respectfully…

Lu Ming was dumbstruck.

What the hell was this?!

“Not bad.”

Xiaobai said gently, “Henceforth, you will be my junior brother.”

“Yes, senior sister.”

The childish and tender voice was full of determination.

Lu Ming listened to this familiar voice carefully. When he walked over to take a look. Yo! Wasn’t this Student Salted Crispy Chicken?!

“Ah!”

Xiaobai was instantly excited at the sight of Lu Ming. “Master, you’re back!”

“Master.”

Yan Suqi greeted him respectfully.

Lu Ming was speechless.

Damn it.

He had gained one more disciple just like that?!

“What is happening?”

Lu Ming was dumbstruck.

“He wants to learn the techniques.”

Xiaobai felt that she was innocent. “I said that we’re not teaching it to outsiders… He acknowledges you as master then…”

“Master, please don’t blame senior sister.”

Student Xiaoyan said in a serious manner, “Since I’ve already become a Sword Card Master, you’re already my master. I came this time because of some cultivation matters…”

“Cultivation matters?”

Lu Ming’s expression was strange.

“Yes.”

Student Xiaoyan felt somewhat embarrassed at this point in time.

“I… I… suspected that cultivating the Original Card was fake…

I cultivated for a long time but did not see any effect. I’ve also nagged it for many times and there is no effect. I feel indignant. That’s why I came here to learn today…

Sorry, master. I shouldn’t have doubted you.”

Yan Suqi’s gaze was filled with sincerity. “I saw senior sister’s Original Card and discovered that the Original Card’s consciousness is nature itself. It was born naturally!

It’s very pure!

It turned out that…

The Original Card can really cultivate!

My Original Card doesn’t know how to cultivate. It must be because I’m not talented enough.”

Yan Suqi felt very ashamed.

Lu Ming was speechless.

What else could he say?

This child had finished saying what he wanted to say?!

So as to speak…

Living beings such as geniuses had shocking talent and exceptional comprehending ability. Naturally, they were extremely imaginative and their brains’ ability to conjure was at the highest level… and Student Salted Crispy Chicken was the outstanding talent amongst them.

“Way to go.”

Lu Ming patted him on the shoulder.

“Okay.”

Yan Suqi’s tiny face looked emotional.

Perhaps the guidelines were not that detailed. During his trip this time, he inquired about the setting, artistic conception, and ability from senior sister. It should not be a problem this time!

“I will succeed!”

Student Xiaoyan left in high spirits.

Lu Ming was speechless.

“Master, master…”

Xiaobai waved her hands. “Come here.”

“What is this?

Lu Ming leaned over.

“Xiaoyan’s lesson fees.”

“His talent doesn’t seem that good.”

“Clearly, it’s a very simple thing and he has to take such a long time. Master even has to write the third stage of guidelines for him. It’s very tough. Therefore, I got him to pay more lesson fees,” Xiaobai said happily.

Lu Ming’s jaws dropped. He was so stunned that he was at a loss for words.

Crap!

It seemed… that he had stirred up huge trouble!

“This doesn’t seem too appropriate.”

Lu Ming sighed. “Things like lesson fees…”

Shush!

Xiaobai opened the accounts and a dazzling figure appeared. There was a total of a hundred thousand yuan. Lu Ming’s heart trembled. Were kids nowadays that rich?

“Do you want me to return it to him?”

Xiaobai was worried.

Master did not seem pleased that she had taken some lesson fees.

“Why do you need to return it?”

Lu Ming coughed and said seriously, “He has already paid them…”

(〃’▽’〃)

Xiaobai was speechless.

After staying at the association for a few days, her master seemed to be getting more and more thick-skinned.

Those bad guys at the association!
