Chapter 616: Chapter 491: The Lion King’s Wish Fulfilled!

Hiss, hiss, hiss.

The sound of shaving resumed.

"Razor, oh razor, who is the mightiest one among the Honorables?"

the Lion King asked.

The razor responded:

"The power of the Honorable from All Worlds is quite poor, but he has a mighty figure from Naihe Bridge by his side, whose strength is immense, capable of killing you like crushing ants."

The Lion King shuddered.

The razor always answered questions obliquely, but its answers were never wrong!

—That makes sense!

No wonder that seemingly weak and delicate girl could subdue me in an instant.

From this, one can draw the following conclusions:

First, my initial judgment was correct; her own strength is indeed very weak.

Second, her ability really lies in "befriending others," able to persuade those fearsome beings to reincarnate; similarly, she can befriend them as well.

There is only one truth—

She has a terrifying figure from Naihe Bridge by her side!

—Otherwise, why couldn’t I dodge that hit?

As for the third point—

The other party can’t always be with that terrifying figure from Naihe Bridge.

When she is alone, I’ll capture her.

No matter what, such a substantial reward is extremely rare, and I must not let her monopolize it!

The Lion King clenched his fist tightly and made a resolute decision.

...

At a certain university.

Jiang Shanglan went to the piano room for practice.

With nothing else to do, Wu Xiaode squatted by the fountain outside, idling away his time.

I have become a World-class life form.

Even now, looking back, it feels surreal.

But I truly feel a change.

Although Jiang Shanglan has hidden our presence, I can still feel—

My body has become more "massive."

Before this, I could never imagine using "massive" to describe a person.

This immense sense of physical presence assures me of one thing—

No one could take me out in a single blow.

Even if I were to die, the power of the world would surge into me, preventing me from being controlled, allowing me to persist for 10 seconds!

This is the "vow of steel"!

Wu Xiaode sighed.

In the beginning, in order to obtain the Causality Law Skill, I painstakingly collected power, did my utmost to complete the Trial, and finally prayed to all the Holy Spirits of Eternal Night at the pinnacle of Eternal Night tower—

And that’s how I obtained the one and only Causality Law Skill in Eternal Night:

—"If you can’t beat them, join them."

Now, I have become a World-class life form—

It seems every upgrade grants me a Causality Law Skill of the Emergence Level.

What a difference a day makes!

Wu Xiaode mused quietly, casually taking out a small knife.

The handle was teal, the blade not as large as a palm, good for peeling apples, opening cans, cutting tape.

This knife belonged to Jiang Shanglan.

"Let me take a look at your notebook; in exchange, take anything you like from my bag to play with. I’ll give it to you first."

That’s what Jiang Shanglan said before she went into the piano room.

Alright then.

She wants to study the notebook.

It’s only fair for me to take something from her as an exchange.

In her bag, there was a crescent moon pendant, a small knife, a cat toy, sheet music, tissue paper, a mirror...

I chose this small knife.

"Why choose this?" Jiang Shanglan asked curiously.

"At least it’s a weapon. It can protect you," I replied casually.

Jiang Shanglan stopped talking, her face turning red as she headed towards the piano room.

Tsk.

I should rein in my cheeky habits a bit.

Wu Xiaode shook his head and put the small knife back in his pocket.

Just then, the sunlight was just right.

A gentle breeze blew, and the leaves rustled.

In the fountain pool were some fish, leisurely swimming around.

Wu Xiaode squinted, enjoying the rare peace, but an unrealistic feeling welled up within him.

—How can there be such an idyllic world?

Even in my own world, there are all kinds of wars.

Even within the empire itself, it’s not all solidarity.

The assassination attempt on Zhao Junyu proves this.

Ordinary people are like helpless lambs...

Yet this world is so harmonious.

It is indeed a "Virtual World"!

Suddenly.

A sense of alarm caught his attention, and he looked up.

A figure was scaling the tree-covered wall, rapidly reaching the third floor and moving towards the corridor.

The third floor...

Isn’t that the piano room?

Wu Xiaode’s figure flashed, he rushed into the corridor, and quickly ascended to the third floor, landing on the corridor floor.

A man wearing sunglasses and of a burly build had just placed his hand on the door handle of the music room, ready to pull the door open.

When Wu Xiaode appeared, the man stopped moving and turned his head to look at him.

"Who are you? What do you want?"

Wu Xiaode asked coldly.

The man sensed briefly and discovered he could not see through this youngster.

He couldn’t even grasp the youngster’s aura.

Could it be...

He pressed something in his pocket.

The shaver immediately emitted an electronic sound:

"A powerful and unbeatable presence is not far from you."

Case closed!

Since the Honorable of All Worlds was not his match...

Then the "powerful and unbeatable presence" must be this unfathomable fellow before him.

"Are you here to protect the girl playing the piano?"

The man asked.

"I’m just concerned about your safety—you better not cause trouble here," Wu Xiaode said coldly.

Concerned about my safety?

The man chewed on the moment, finding this threatening statement quite stylish.

—Learned it!

I’ll use it when talking to others!

Removing his sunglasses, the man walked towards Wu Xiaode with a slight smile on his face.

Wu Xiaode immediately became alert.

"Speak from there if you have something to say."

"No, no, no, you misunderstand, I actually have a favor to ask," the burly man hastened to say.

"What is it?" Wu Xiaode asked.

The burly man walked up to him, suddenly knelt down, and said loudly:

"Your Highness, there’s no need for you to intervene in our affairs, we insignificant ants are not worth wasting your time on!"

After saying this, he banged his head on the ground three times with a thud.

Wu Xiaode was taken aback, his thoughts turning, and the image of Jiang Shanglan insisting on taking the notebook suddenly appeared in his mind.

So that’s it!

This wave, Sister Lan is in the third layer.

Wu Xiaode sighed in relief, feeling a bit of pity for the man before him.

"What do you want with that girl?"

He couldn’t help but ask.

The burly man said through sobs:

"My lord, that girl has obtained an extremely rare reward material that can greatly aid the growth of life forms like us from various worlds."

"My lord, we’re nearly destitute, yet she wants to keep it all for herself!"

"Please show mercy, let us settle our own issues, I really just want a bit of justice, my lord!"

Tsk.

So pitifully worded, but you just want to rob me of my materials!

Wu Xiaode immediately felt unsympathetic and stated firmly, "Those materials have been used."

"I guessed she would use them right away!"

The burly man slapped his thigh in frustration, but quickly perked up again, respectfully saying to Wu Xiaode:

"But no matter, she has to complete such a task again tomorrow, please don’t interfere with the troubles of us insignificant ants then..."

"This is a small token of my appreciation, please accept it with a smile."

He knelt on the ground, fishing a gemstone ring out of his pocket, and held it up to Wu Xiaode with both hands.

Wu Xiaode asked, puzzled, "This is—"

"It’s worthless," the burly man hastened to say, "this is just a rare Mirror Stone Ring that I’ve cherished for countless years, and today I offer it to you, my lord."

Wu Xiaode looked at the gemstone ring, noting the dragon scale-like setting with a faintly pink glowing gemstone embedded in it.

It was obviously something valuable!

For the man to give up such an item, he really was making a significant offering.

But then...

Before he had decided what to do, he heard a scream coming from the hallway.

Several girls were looking this way from a distance, emitting ambiguous cries, and some even pulled out phones to take pictures.

Taking pictures?

Wu Xiaode looked at himself and then at the burly man.

The other guy kneeling with a gemstone ring in his hand could certainly lead to misunderstandings.

"Stand up when you speak, and by the way, what’s your name?"

Wu Xiaode quickly pocketed the Mirror Stone Ring and signaled for the burly man to rise.

The burly man nodded and bowed:

"My lord, I am Lion King, one of the six Honorable overseers of the Virtual World, although of course, I am not worth mentioning in front of you."

Wu Xiaode hesitated for a moment and then said:

"Fine, I will not involve myself in you and her affairs starting tomorrow, but you need to be aware of one thing—"

The burly man’s face lit up with joy at the first half of the sentence, but he turned serious upon hearing the second half.

Looking at him, Wu Xiaode couldn’t help showing a touch of pity in his eyes:

"You must give her trouble, I’ve taken your gift, and it wouldn’t be right to stop you, but I’d like you to consider leaving some room in your actions and words when the time comes."

The burly man relaxed upon hearing this.

"Don’t worry, my lord, I’ll consider that we’re colleagues after all—I won’t be completely ruthless," he assured.

"Good, that’s settled then, you may go now."

"Yes, my lord."

The burly man walked away, completely satisfied.

—Tomorrow, that terrifying being would no longer protect the Honorable of All Worlds.

Tomorrow!
