Chapter 45: Fortune and Misfortune (1)
Su Mo and Qian Tao turned to look.
A person walked towards them.
“You are Sun Lie and…Wu Linfeng?”
When Su Mo said the last name, his voice suddenly rose, and his face was filled with shock.
He had interacted with the two of them briefly.
These two people were their competitors when they treated Wang Linglan.
And now,[exorcist] Sun Lie was still wearing the same checkered shirt and jeans that had never changed in ten thousand years.
On the other hand, Wu Linfeng, the other [priest] profession.
Back then, he looked so malnourished that it was as if a gust of wind could blow him away.
But now, he was fat and had an especially steady body.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the face of the Maitreya Buddha seemed vaguely familiar.
In addition, the name on the interface was also Wu Linfeng.
Su Mo almost thought that he had lost his mind.
Could a person really change so much in just a few days?
It seemed to have noticed Su Mo’s confusion.
Wu Linfeng said with a smile,”
“That thin and weak appearance earlier was caused by the advancement ritual.
This is my original appearance.
After completing the ritual and breaking through to Tier 4, he immediately recovered.”
When Su Mo heard this, he asked in confusion,”
“Can I ask what the advancement ritual for a rank 3 priest is?”
“Ha, this is actually very simple.”
Wu Linfeng smiled and replied,”
“If we [priest] want to break through to Tier 3, we have to stop eating for a certain period of time, and while we stop eating, we have to use our own skills as much as possible, squeezing out the last bit of strength in our bodies until we reach our limits. Only then can we wash away the corruption and welcome a breakthrough.”
“How long is this period of time?”
“Generally, it’s seven days and fourteen days. It’s different for everyone.
For example, I can last for nine days and two hours.
An hour more or an hour less, the effect of the advancement would not be too good.
It’s a pity that I can only grasp the time rank and can’t advance to the next level.
It was rumored that those geniuses who had reached the graded level would reach the middle stage of level 4 once they passed the ritual.
After that, he could easily break through to Tier 5 without any obstacles.”
Su Mo struck while the iron was hot and asked a few more questions about priest skills.
Wu Linfeng patiently answered one by one.
Finally, after he finished asking, he said,
“If I didn’t already know that you’re a sword saint, I would have been able to kill you.
I almost thought you were a priest.
With all the questions you just asked,
Some priest didn’t even think of it.
He didn’t expect sword saint to be so knowledgeable.”
“How is it just erudite?”
Qian Tao bragged without hesitation,
“Our little brother Su only used less than ten days to successfully advance to tier 2.
He was undoubtedly a Prodigy sword saint.”
Hearing this, Wu Linfeng and Sun Lie were both very surprised.
“He actually advanced so quickly?
It took me almost a year to level up from Tier 1 to Tier 2.”
“I was a little faster, but it took me half a year.
Was this the difference between a genius and an ordinary person?
Isn’t the difference too great?”
He saw the envious and jealous expressions on the faces of the two of them.
Qian Tao only felt very proud.
As if he couldn’t stand the smug expression on his face, Wu Linfeng said with a face full of disdain,”
“He advanced to Tier 2, what are you showing off for?
You’ve broken through to Tier 4?
To be honest, my level is higher than yours now.
Am I proud?”
” Heh.” Qian Tao sneered.” Then why don’t you go higher so that you can be recruited to the Origin World Battlefield?””
The muscles on Wu Linfeng’s face twitched fiercely, and he forcefully said,”
“Even if I’m recruited, I can still choose the logistics department. After all, I’m a priest. Other than fighting, I can also heal.
However, if a ranger like you were to go to the battlefield, where else could you go other than the front lines?”
“But I won’t level up. I’ll stay at Tier 3. What can you do to me?”
Qian Tao had a smug face, his butt twisting and turning, making Wu Linfeng wish he could beat him to death on the spot.
How could such an embarrassing person enter the Dawn Bureau?
At this moment, he deeply felt the unfairness of fate.
Seeing this, Su Mo said,”
“What are you two doing here?”
“I’ll wash my hair like you guys.”
Wu Linfeng glanced at the hair salon not far away and replied.
“Do you want to wash the big head or the small head?”
Qian Tao asked.
“Why the f * ck do I have to go to this place to wash my head?”
“Then the grade of this place doesn’t match up to yours.”
“There’s nothing we can do about it!”
Wu Linfeng’s tone was faint, full of resentment,”
“Do you think that everyone is like you official superhumans, where all resources are provided internally?
Which of us ordinary Extraordinaires doesn’t have to work hard to save up our own resources to hold a advancement ritual?
Just for the source stones and other resources that could replenish my strength during the ritual, I had almost emptied my family’s fortune.
If I don’t come to this place now, where else can I go? Heavenly Earth? Don’t joke around.”
“Sigh, you’re too pitiful.” Qian Tao patted his shoulder.” Next time we go to Heavenly Earth, I’ll treat you. I’m a regular customer, 30% off.””
“Tch, do I need you to treat me?”
Wu Linfeng said disdainfully,”
“We just received a case to help find the missing supernatural being.
Even if they found a little clue, they would be able to gain a lot.
The next time you want to see me, I’m afraid you’ll have to meet me on the fourth floor of Heavenly Earth.”
Qian Tao looked at his smug expression and asked rather strangely,”
“Did your missing person case happen a week ago?”
Wu Linfeng said in surprise,”
“How did you know?”
“Because a rookie in the Zhenwu team has also gone missing.
During this period of time, they had been busy investigating the case.
If you run slower, you won’t even get a chance to drink the soup.”
“F * ck! Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
Wu Linfeng’s expression instantly changed.
“You didn’t even ask.”
Qian Tao spread his hands.
“Alright, I owe you for this. Let’s go and get busy first. We’ll talk again tomorrow when we’re free.”
As he spoke, he quickly took Sun Lie to the bus stop, looking like he was in a hurry.
Qian Tao shook his head and said to Su Mo,
“Let’s go in too and see how the hair salon auntie is doing.”
The two of them walked towards the hair salon not far away.
At the same time.
In a teahouse not far from here.
There were three people sitting in the quaint tea room on the second floor.
Lu Chuan, the owner of the teahouse, who was wearing a navy blue robe and gold-rimmed glasses, slowly put down the teacup in his hand and said to Yang Zhichao,
“Although Zhang Lie escaped, the group of wolf pups from the Dawn Bureau are tracking him closely. We need to arrange for someone to go and receive him. This is also a plan that was set in advance.
Right now, Luo Bai has an important mission on hand, Feng Ye is also running around for the Demon Emperor, Qi Yang and I have other things to deal with, so you’re the only one who can free up manpower in our station.”
Hearing this, Yang Zhichao frowned and said,”
“My advancement ritual is scheduled for these few days. I’m afraid I won’t be able to find the time to meet him.”
“It doesn’t matter if the ceremony is delayed by a few more days. After all, Zhang Lie still has a large number of precious resources in his hands. We can’t let anything go wrong. Especially since he still has the Evil Saint Token, we can’t let him be caught by the Dawn Bureau.”
“If I reach Tier 4, wouldn’t I have more strength to deal with this matter? You can ask him to wait for two more days. Besides, my advancement is what the Blood Emperor wants.”
Hearing him mention the Blood Emperor, Lu Chuan adjusted his glasses and chuckled.
“Since it involves the Blood Emperor, you should go and promote yourself first. Don’t let him down.”
Yang Zhichao nodded slightly and turned to leave.
When he left the teahouse, Song Qiyang, who was beside him with his arms crossed, snorted coldly in disdain.”
“Do you really think you can be unscrupulous just because you have the support of the Blood Emperor? If the Demon Empress had not been severely injured by that b * tch, with his attitude, he would have been thrown into the Demon Prison to be tortured!”
“What a blessing.”
Lu Chuan took a sip of his tea, but the smile on his face carried a hint of ridicule.
“Others may not understand the Blood Emperor, but do you think old people like us don’t know him?
As one of the four vice presidents, when did he become so gentle to the supernatural beings under him?
He gave her the Blood Spirit Pill for the breakthrough and also gave her pointers on the key points of the advancement ritual.
In half a year, he had managed to raise an ordinary person to the point where he was about to break through to Tier 4.
Do you really think it’s a good thing to be so enthusiastic?”
Hearing these words, Song Qiyang suddenly calmed down. The muscles on his face could not help trembling slightly, and cold sweat broke out on his back out of thin air.
Lu Chuan stood up, patted him on the shoulder, and said,
“Watch your mouth. You should know the consequences if you ruin Blood Emperor’s plan.
I’ll leave Zhang Lie to you. Try to rope him in. With so many resources in his hands, we’re not the only ones he has.”
“Understood!”
Song Qiyang immediately nodded in agreement.
Lu Chuan sang a leisurely tune and slowly left the tea room.
