Chapter 74: Eat Shit, Long Aotian

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

This morning, Long Aotian’s cousin, Miss Linglong, went out with the servant girl out to play. She ran into Ye Liangjing who was recovering from his serious injury. Ye Liangjing’s wounds were healed, but his core was destroyed and could not practice cultivation anymore in his life. His life hit rock bottom.

Seeing Miss Linglong, suddenly all the new grudges and old hatred resurged. Hatred drove people insane, and without saying a word, she kidnapped Miss Linglong. He hated him, so he would make him a cuckold.

The servant girl hurriedly returned to the Manor to report this. Long Aotian was enraged as he rushed into the horse shed and selected a horse with enormous speed and staying power. As long as he rode it, even the Combat Emperor could not catch up with him.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady and Lady Killer had an utter lack of interest. Instead of watching Long Aotian’s awkward attempts at acting badass, it was better to sit at home and drink tea. They waited for Long Aotian to leave the newbie village, and then falsely follow him and add insult to injury when he is in danger.

A beautiful female lead being raped by the enemy, and the protagonist appeared to rescue her, which was also a corny trope.

“Follow Long Aotian and see what happens.” Li Xianyu dragged the two seniors out, went to the horse shed to select horses and headed to the Ye Manor.

“What’s there to see? A hero saving the beauty, and then the relationship between cousins grow stronger.” Lady Killer snarked, but he and Thunderbolt Battle Lady still choose to follow Li Xianyu out.

During the recent period, Li Xianyu often analyzed with them to discuss the tropes of online novels and proved his position in the five-person team. In the event of something happening, Thunderbolt Battle Lady and Lady Killer would subconsciously listen to his opinion.

It turned out that the newbie was right, as he had read many novels like the ones of Long Aotian.

The team of four rode on horses and rode at lightning speed. After rushing half of the journey, they saw Long Aotian ride back and they encountered each other.

“Brother Aotian, why did you come back? Where’s Miss Linglong?” Li Xianyu asked loudly.

He should have started a massacre at Ye Manor at this time.

Long Aotian did not say a word, his face iron green with fury. He was enraged as he brushed past Li Xianyu and the others.

“He couldn’t find her?” Li Xianyu pulled the horse back, and turned around, “Let’s go, let’s catch up with him.”

The four followed Long Aotian from far away, as they galloped swiftly down on the main street. They soon stopped at the entrance of a brothel.

“Yu!”

Li Xianyu and the team pulled onto the horse reins, and were about to enter with Long Aotian. Suddenly a person walked up to them excitedly from the streets near the entrance of the brothel. “You have finally come out. Wait, why didn’t you come out from inside?”

The man was very tall and looked shabby. His expression implied, “Why didn’t you come, I waited until I’m heartbroken.”

Li Xianyu looked at Thunderbolt Battle Lady, who was also looking at him. At this moment, silence was better than making sound.

“King Kong?” Lady Killer recognized him, and exclaimed in surprise, “Why did you come in too, and why didn’t you come to me?”

King Kong was stunned. “We are here to find you, I have been waiting for you to come out for the brothel. I have waited for three months. Sobs.”

Sadness welled up, and the burly man suddenly looked pitiful.

Wait for us in the brothel… No, he’s supposed to be waiting for them.

Realization dawned on Lady Killer, as he gave Li Xianyu and Thunderbolt Battle Lady a side-eyed glance. “Did you two forget about him?”

Li Xianyu said, “No, don’t say nonsense.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady said, “I’ll kill you if you say that again.”

They must deny this, it was too hurtful.

San Wu was brutally honest. “Yes, we’ve forgotten King Kong.”

Everyone was speechless.

It’s a little awkward, and Li Xianyu hurriedly changed the subject. “Let’s not talk about this. We have business to do, let’s quickly enter the brothel.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady nodded hurriedly, “It’s important to get down to business.”

King Kong asked, “What about me?”

Lady Killer looked at him and asked, “Do you want to enter the brothel, or are you waiting outside?”

King Kong looked conflicted and said, “I’d better wait outside. Don’t forget me this time.”

Li Xianyu said solemnly, “Don’t worry, this time we will never forget you, trust me.”

King Kong has no trust in this boy, and Thunderbolt Battle Lady. It’s okay that San Wu forgotten him, the girl had holes in her head. But why did this two forget him? And they even forgotten him for three months.

He had led a sorry life these past three months. He was afraid to go far, afraid to miss his teammates, squatting at the brothel’s entrance day after day. This was the virtual world, so he will not be hungry, but the mental torture was real.

King Kong looked silently at Lady Killer. The latter nodded and patted him on the shoulder. “I know, I will not forget you.”

…

When they found Long Aotian, the matter was concluded, and the scene in the room was particularly harrowing.

Ye Liangjing was disheveled, and he groaned, lying on the ground. He covered his crotch, his face twisted as blood flowed from his legs.

The sorrow of the balls.

“Save me.” He saw Li Xianyu, just as a drowning man seeing a log, and he was in a hurry to get any help he could find. He struggled to crawl over and begged, “I am the Second Young Master of the Ye Family. Save me and I can give you glory and wealth. Long Aotian is crazy, he wants to kill me. My elder sister is the Royal Concubine, my father and brother will not let him off.” His eyes were bloodshot, as if a dying person was mustering energy before he passed away.

Li Xianyu thought about it and said regretfully, “Your balls are gone. What’s the use of saving you? Go into the palace as a eunuch, and serve your elder sister?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Liangjing’s face quickly turned ashen pale. His eyes rolled and with a flop of his legs, he died.

Li Xianyu was caught off guard. Did I say the wrong thing?

On the bed, Linglong was held in Long Aotian’s arms, as she wept. She only had a light green undergarment with lotuses embroidered on it, covering her upper body. The lower part of her body was covered with a quilt, and could not be seen.

“Linglong don’t cry, it is my fault. I did not protect you and let you suffer.” Long Aotian had tears in his eyes as he said with much sympathy.

Linglong wept. “Cousin, I’m so afraid. If I lose my innocence, Linglong would rather die than live. I don’t have the courage to face you again.”

Long Aotian’s sympathy grew and he vowed solemnly, “I swear on this. From now on, no one will be able to bully my woman. Otherwise, I will search high and low, to the ends of the world, and I will cut him into pieces, and crush his ashes.”

Linglong shivered, and she looked up, her face pale and full of tears. Her expression was a mix of grief and joy, “Cousin, you…”

On the side, Lady Killer silently covered his face. “I can’t watch it anymore. It’s so cringey.”

He was suffering from cringe and embarrassment. He was just about to find solace with his companions, only to find Thunderbolt Battle Lady looking like a girl in love.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady swooned, “Long Aotian is so handsome, such a man is worth entrusting my life to.”

Li Xianyu was full of anger, “Ye Liangjing deserved to die, how could he bully and humiliate an innocent lady.”

After saying that, he was stunned.

Wait, why do I sound so indignant for Long Aotian?

Long Aotian is my enemy. I should be happy that he was made a cuckold of. The main character’s power was too strong, it was already like this and he wasn’t cuckolded.

…

The incident in Wuji City made a startling wave, as the Long Manor and Ye Manor declared war, and almost came to blows. Finally, the royal family came forward to mediate, as they reluctantly transferred the conflict that was about to take place on the table to fight behind the scenes.

Those matters were not related to Li Xianyu and the others, as they led a great life in the Long Manor.

Everyday, there were premium wine, good food, and excellent tea. They sunbathed in the yard, and admired beautiful ladies of all shapes and sizes.

Today, they gathered in the yard to drink tea, and King Kong was finally here. At last, he was not abandoned.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady sipped tea, her expression smitten. “Long Aotian is so handsome, so manly.”

Li Xianyu drawled, “How boring, women are so boring, I hate women the most.”

A few minutes later.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady said, “Long Aotian is so handsome, so manly.”

Li Xianyu said, “How boring, women are so boring, I hate women the most.”

Another few minutes passed…

When they repeated the same lines over and over again, Lady Killer said gravely, “I don’t think they’re in the right state of mind.”

King Kong agreed with him. “There must be something wrong with this boy, he’s robbing me of my lines. And Battle Lady actually thinks Long Aotian has a manly demeanor?”

The two men looked at each other with a heavy heart.

It seems that the two have been brainwashed by Long Aotian. The most fearsome aspect of the illusory array was not a strong mental impact, but it was a subtle influence on your mind, a phantom influence that was hard to guard against.

“San Wu,” Lady Killer said.

San Wu nodded, as she dealt a karate chop to Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s head and stated, “You are a stupid woman, no man will like you.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady shook, as if she had woken up from a dream.

San Wu dealt another karate chop to Li Xianyu’s head. “Your great-grandma is here.”

Li Xianyu trembled all over with fear, and his gaze was immediately clear.

Lady Killer exclaimed exasperatedly, “It’s okay if Li Xianyu is affected. After all, his cultivation experience is shallow. How can you be affected, Battle Lady? How much do you miss men?”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady blushed and glared, “Pfft, that’s bullshit. I’ll kill you.”

With that, she frowned, “No wonder we’ve been living here for three months, but we don’t particularly have the urge to leave. We muddle along like salted fish, because we have long been imperceptibly influenced by the illusory array. It’s terrifying.”

In their original plan, they would first win Long Aotian’s trust, waiting for the opportunity to strike. The best plan was to find loopholes in the virtual world. The next best plan was to be werewolf beside Long Aotian and find a chance to give him a fatal blow. However, the development of things was always different from the plan. They have not found loopholes, nor waited for the opportunity to assassinate. The two people in the team seem to be unable to resist Long Aotian’s pyramid selling scheme-esque brainwashing.

Li Xianyu’s expression was dark. “We cannot stay in this place for long, we must find a way out. I’m not interested in women anymore?” Long Aotian, you think this is funny?

Long Aotian seems to sincerely regard him as his own lackey, which is a good thing, indicating that he has won his trust. But in such novels, the supporting male characters had no chance of mating and showed brainless loyalty. Such characteristics were very unfriendly.

Li Xianyu was afraid that his mind will be brainwashed. What if I return to reality and there are aftereffects?

Besides, if they continue to stay here, they may have followed the footsteps of their colleagues before they even found the loopholes.

Lady Killer said, “But we don’t have a particularly good plan to find a loophole yet.”

Everyone was silent and a little discouraged.

Long Aotian was the most headache-inducing problem within the company at present, and even the Big Boss has yet to come up with a proper solution. There are several major sequelae, which is why they have been afraid to try. If things went awry, there was a 50-50 chance that Long Aotian and their colleagues who fell into the virtual world would become vegetables.

“We don’t have time to find this loophole. It’s hard to find a loophole that crashes the world, and it may not even exist. We have to put all our eggs in one basket.” Li Xianyu said gravely, “Long Aotian has been able to practice qi, he is sure to travel around, during which he will go through a lot of life and death tests. We will follow beside Long Aotian, and wait for the opportunity to strike.”

King Kong had little confidence. “Will this work?”

Li Xianyu gave a rational analysis, “Although we have gained his trust, but the protagonist is too overpowered. There are many variables and I am not sure, unless we can restrain his protagonist powers.”

Lady Killer touched his chin and murmured, “If it’s a short period of restraint, I might be able to do it, because I am also a mental power awakener. I have part of the illusory array’s control, but far weaker compared to Long Aotian. It’s like the difference between management and chat masters. So many colleagues initially chose to attack Long Aotian when he was in danger, but they all failed. Our advantage was that we gained Long Aotian’s trust.”

Li Xianyu was shocked. “Why didn’t you say so earlier?”

Lady Killer said, “I did, I said it many times.”

Li Xianyu said, “I don’t remember. It’s the influence of Long Aotian’s illusory array?”

Lady Killer said, “And there is a limit, when Long Aotian has not yet escalated to my realm, if I struck him, I would be killed by heaven’s tribulation, or there would be all kinds of accidents, so I still dare not do it these days.”

Li Xianyu replied, “But if we do it, super-masters are not going to pop out. So you can’t do it, you have to stay at the side and prevent some unwelcome surprises. We have gained Long Aotian’s trust, that is, we are not the enemy in his consciousness. As long as we strike, and fight a quick battle, Long Aotian subconsciously will not react at all.”

Lady Killer’s eyes lit up. “Yes, this plan is feasible.”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s smile bloomed, as she flicked Li Xianyu’s forehead with her finger. “Your brain is good.”

King Kong said, “That is to say, we are short of an opportunity to fish in troubled waters.”

“I remember Long Aotian killed Ye Liangjing, and not long after, he was assassinated by Ye Liangchen in the black bamboo forest outside the city. Long Aotian was seriously injured and almost died. Later, Long Aotian’s cultivation experience grew and he returned to Wuji City to destroy Ye Manor.” Lady Killer frowned and said, “But I don’t remember the exact time.”

Li Xianyu gave him a high five and declared, “Keep an eye on Long Aotian, we will strike in the black bamboo forest. Long Aotian has not grown too powerful, this is the best time to do it.”

Throughout the next few days, they continued to be salted fish and observed in silence. Finally, Long Aotian decided to go out. Li Xianyu who has always been observing his every move acted like a lackey and asked Long Aotian about his plans.

“I’m going to the black bamboo forest outside the city, and to find green bamboo snakes to brew them into medicine,” Long Aotian explained.

“We’ll go with you,” Li Xianyu said.

But he was rejected by Long Aotian.

Half an hour after his departure, the party of five rode out of the manor on swift horses and rushed out of the city.

The black bamboo forest was 15 kilometers. To Li Xianyu’s surprise, this virtual world’s map was done excellently. They galloped on the roads meant for officials. Beautiful scenery was abundant, green fields, fragrant wildflowers, lush woods, and the blue sky that will never be seen in big cities.

“What a beautiful scenery.” Thunderbolt Battle Lady gasped in awe.

“Yeah, well, why don’t we go to the river for a picnic?” Li Xianyu suggested.

“That’s a good idea. Shall I go back to town and buy some ingredients?” King Kong asked.

Lady Killer was speechless.

He roared, “Wake up, you guys, we’re going to kill Long Aotian. What goddamn picnic?!”

The three woke up and shook their heads, carrying heavy hearts. The influence of the illusory array was deepening, and continuously impacting their minds. They don’t even know when they were controlled.

They had to kill Long Aotian as soon as possible. Not long later, they rushed to the black bamboo forest, where a war had just taken place not long ago. Pieces and shards of bamboo collapsed and broke, and there were more than a dozen bodies lying on the ground, thick blood penetrating into the soil.

Ye Liangchen has struck. Everything was according to plan. Long Aotian has been hit and killed in the black bamboo forest, which means that he has long been targeted by Ye Liangchen.

Following the traces of the fight, there were two figures locked in a confrontation, their bodies covered with blood.

A young man in brocade clothes held a sword in his hand and glared at Long Aotian, “You killed my younger brother, this vengeance is eternal. Today is the time of your death.”

Long Aotian said, “Ye Liangchen, I have abhorred you for a long time. You alone? Are unworthy to be my enemy.”

On the other side, Li Xianyu muttered lowly, “In accordance with the plan we have discussed, Long Aotian trusts me the most. I’ll strike first, success or failure hinges on this move.”

King Kong joined the latest and asked, “Why does Long Aotian trust you the most?”

Without waiting for Li Xianyu to answer, San Wu replied frankly, “Because he is the most lackey-like.”

Long Aotian’s ears twitched. “Who’s there?”

He had discovered Li Xianyu and the gang.

Li Xianyu simply did not hide, pulled out the dagger between his waist and rushed over. “Brother Aotian, I’m so glad you are alright. Let us help you.”

He ran quickly to Long Aotian and when he was close to him, his wrist suddenly twisted. The dagger pierced towards Long Aotian’s chest. “Eat shit, Long Aotian.”
