There's Something Wrong With This Account

Chapter 407: [Younger sister, watch your brother show off]
The night grew darker, and before midnight, Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Long Bao had already logged in early.

Not just them, but the other players were also scattered around, waiting for the ghost monsters to appear.

Yesterday, even though the two Ghost Kings were killed by the Purple Palace, they didn’t get anything from it but slaying those low-level ghost monsters brought them considerable gains.

Especially the low-ranking ghost beads that popped out made countless people gasp and envy when they were posted on the forum, greatly satisfying their vanity.

Of course, if they wanted to sell them, they could also get quite a bit of soft sister coins.

Hence, the players who had acquired items yesterday were hoping they could get more today, while those who hadn’t were expecting to do so today. This made all the silly players very excited, some even lined up, doing a zombie dance.

The floor of the Heavenly Dust Continent was really hot~

As time ticked by, right at midnight, gusts of cold wind began to howl.

The whole area seemed to darken somewhat.

“Elder Lu indeed has a strategy, he said ghost monsters would appear at midnight, and sure enough, it’s exactly midnight.” Ye Sui An couldn’t help sighing.

Gusts of cold wind swept through the area, like signaling:

Be careful, Black Silly is lurking ahead!

╭(°A°`)╮,(;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`)

Black energy started rising from the ground, then coagulating into ghost monsters.

Ghost monsters have a characteristic, that is, the stronger they are, the bigger they get.

Like those low-level ghost monsters, their height is about 1.5 to 2 meters.

Ghost Kings have a height of about three meters, with the powerful ones even over five meters.

——Bigger equals stronger!

“They really are big and black!” A player exclaimed.

Lu Xun looked at some of the ghost monsters around level 40 that popped out and estimated in his heart, “Today, there will probably only be one Ghost King, but its level might be slightly higher.”

When a certain number of low-level ghost monsters had come together, it didn’t take long for the Ghost King to appear.

Sure enough, as Lu Xun had guessed, only one Ghost King appeared tonight, but its level had reached 57!

“Sss- this will be tough!” Lu Xun looked at this Ghost King, and his heart was shocked.

After level 50, the gap in power between each level is significant.

Although ghost monsters have inherent flaws—they don’t have many skills, don’t know how to dodge, and are bullish from beginning to end—a level 57 is still a bit exaggerated!

“This is going to be difficult!” Lu Xun thought to himself.

He had planned to deal with the Ghost King on his own, but looking at the current situation, he might need Ye Sui An’s help.

Although this might affect the experience points he’ll get, there is no other way.

“I’ll treat it as a contribution to the growth of the World Protagonist!” Lu Xun thought.

In fact, for Ye Sui An, he also needs such an opportunity to fight the Ghost King.

With his enlightenment and growth rate, he can progress faster with more head-on fights.

As for the Sword Qi is Near, it continues to be a nuclear weapon, not to be used if not necessary, to save its energy for subsequent attacks.

“Roar–” After appearing, the Ghost King let out a hoarse roar.

The sound was extremely uncomfortable to hear.

If the roars of the previous two Ghost Kings caused players to feel dazed, then this Ghost King’s roar immediately caused the players close to it to start losing health.

“Holy shit! I’m losing health! Is this the legendary Lion’s Roar?”

“Why are you roaring so loudly?”

“Dammit! How many throat lozenges has it consumed?”

And after the Ghost King’s roar, the nearly two hundred other ghost monsters also started roaring.

“One dog barks at a shadow, a hundred dogs bark at the sound.” Lu Xun thought.

The Ghost King was roaring at him, probably because it sensed the trace of ghost qi on him.

And these ghost monsters were just randomly howling.

Lu Xun stood on the city wall and leaped down.

He first started falling at normal speed, halfway through, his figure suddenly vanished into thin air.

When he reappeared, a large amount of Sword Qi was swirling around him, directly attacking the Ghost King head-on.

Although this Ghost King was high-leveled, it still didn’t react quickly.

It was just roaring a moment ago, but now it was suddenly hit by Lu Xun’s “Sword Qi Collision”, and didn’t have time to react.

Boom—

This huge black Ghost King, about four meters tall, was pushed back several metres.

“You stand too close to Little Yu.” Lu Xun thought.

At this point, Lu Xun’s backup, Ye Sui An, had also arrived at the battlefield.

The Moon Emperor unsheathed directly, flashing a dazzling white light!

To Lu Xun, this sword could completely be used as a flash bomb. When unsheathed, it’s especially useful for underhanded moves.

Logically, this powerful Ghost King should put enormous pressure on people.

Even Lu Xun was finding it tough at this moment.

But Ye Sui An was in high spirits.

With Elder Lu by his side, he felt secure.

“All I need to do is what I’m meant to do!” said Ye Sui’an to himself.

“Go!” He shouted loudly, and [Moon Emperor] turned into a stream of light, striking at the Ghost King before him.

Seeing Ye Sui’an so full of energy, Lu Xun looked at him in surprise, and then hurried to follow.

He had to constantly ouput more power than Ye Sui’an, thus drawing the Ghost King’s ire towards him, making it continually attack him.

No choice, who made him tougher than Ye Sui’an, after all?

The dark streams of energy circulated around him, creating an impressively strong defense.

The defense intensity of [Pink Ink] was linked to the spiritual power within the body: the more spiritual power, the thicker the shield.

Lu Xun’s spiritual power was exceptionally robust, which caused their shield to be fully bulging.

Putting out the most output, taking the hardest hits, that was Lu Xun’s job.

Meanwhile, Ye Sui’an was responsible for chipping in from the side, helping out when Lu Xun couldn’t handle it.

Most importantly … he couldn’t upstage Dad in front of his younger sister!

Lu Xun lifted his sword sheath with his left hand, and the Sword Qi flooded out like a tidal wave.

It gathered like a tide in the air, then swept towards the Ghost King who was in front of him.

Just as they were about to touch the Ghost King, every strand of Sword Qi suddenly burst into flames!

—This was the combustion of nearly a thousand Sword Qi!

Black [Divine Fire] was attached to the Sword Qi; each of its strands only had a very small flame, but when combined, they looked like a sea of fire from afar.

Ghost Qi rose from the body of the Ghost King, it was semi-transparent and black, while the pitch-black [Divine Fire] was profound!

When the two collided, the health bar of the Ghost King began to decrease visibly at an alarming rate.

Lu Xun managed to chop off half of the Ghost King’s arm, leaving a bit of [Divine Fire] at the stump, causing a [burning] effect!

The massive commotion attracted the attention of the surrounding players. Lu Xiaoyu and Xiao Long Bao, who were not far from Lu Xun, also turned their heads around.

The visual impact of this scene was indeed too strong. The man in the black cloak seemed slightly insignificant compared to the four-meter-tall ghost creature, but he presented a much more formidable feeling!

“Damn! I finally saw the [Divine Fire] from the video with my own eyes!”

“So cool! This black flame is awesome!”

“I want to be this dazzling too!”

As the players discussed animatedly, Xiao Long Bao cleaved a ghost in front of him with a single sword strike and turned to Lu Xiaoyu, “He’s kind of cool. What do you think?”

“Well… It’s alright, I guess.” Lu Xiaoyu responded insincerely.

She said those words, but her eyes couldn’t help but frequently glance towards Lu Xun.

After a successful attack, Lu Xun immediately pursued his advantage..

Meanwhile, Ye Sui’an was frantically dealing damage, and at the same time, he was severing the black energy flowing from the Ghost King towards Lu Xun.

The two of them were working well together, sharing an understanding with just a look.

Their green and black robes fluttered in the wind, and just looking at their backs, the players felt a sense of poetic imagery.

You see, this type of scene was quite rare.

Lu Xun was rated as the most handsome NPC by the players on Heavenly Dust, and Ye Sui’an came second.

When these two joined forces, many fans couldn’t help but scream with pleasure.

Of course… the fujoshi were also included.

The health bar of the Ghost King was dropping rapidly, and soon it was in a crippled state.

Lu Xun gave Ye Sui’an a look, then disappeared from the spot, moving behind the Ghost King.

Ye Sui’an understood what to do, charged forward, and swung his sword at the encroaching black energy, drawing the Ghost King’s attention.

And just when he was about to falter, he saw the fog spreading around him.

“This is… Elder Lu’s Sword Intent!”

In an instant, the Ghost King let out a screech, and then it was torn apart by Lu Xun from behind.

The black Ghost Qi began to twist and spin like a whirlpool, while the surrounding white mist instantly flowed into it, continually wearing down the black energy.

— White and black constantly intertwined!

In the end, the Ghost King’s health bar dropped to zero, and it disintegrated into clouds of Ghost Qi that spread out in all directions.

Ye Sui’an stood holding his sword, panting heavily.

“Are you okay?” asked Lu Xun.

Ye Sui’an nodded, then closed his eyes.

In an instance, a massive amount of spiritual energy surged towards him.

— A breakthrough on the spot!

This kid actually gained enlightenment even while assisting!

The surrounding players all cast their eyes on Ye Sui’an, including Lu Xiaoyu who was not far away.

Lu Xun noticed her gaze and couldn’t help but slightly frown.

Then, he silently opened his character panel and chose without any change in expression…

— [Upgrade]!
