When system cheat becomes rampant!-Chapter 618 - 457 - Knock Knock
"It's, it's Professor Luo!"
Zhao Ruizhong recognized Elder Luo at a glance and was astonished to see him here!
When Elder Luo was still the commander of the Alliance Beast Tide Defense Department in Jiuzhou, Zhao Ruizhong had worked under his command and had even been permitted by Elder Luo to research Beast Pills. After a series of events, he hadn't been in touch with Professor Luo for a long time and was quite excited to see him here!
This was, after all, a significant figure in Jiuzhou today!
Elder Luo also noticed this side, turned his body, forcibly broke through the canyon's restrictive seal, and instantly teleported to Xiang Beifei and the others' side.
"Zhao Ruizhong?"
Elder Luo recognized Zhao Ruizhong. Although it had been several years, he still remembered him, just unsure why he was also here.
"Professor Luo, it's me!" Zhao Ruizhong quickly nodded in response.
The person he admired the most in his life was none other than someone with true character like Professor Luo!
"What are you doing here?"
"I..."
Zhao Ruizhong was at a loss for words, thinking about his complicated relationship with the Unrestrained, his expression suddenly hardened. In a way, he was an accomplice of the Unrestrained, and now, Professor Luo was a minister of the Su Alliance!
He didn't know how to explain his actions.
"It's a long story, we'll explain when we get back,"
Xiang Beifei waved his hand.
Zhao Ruizhong indeed had done wrong, but he was also a manipulated person, quite reasonable, and upon realizing his major mistake, he desperately tried to make amends. Presumably, Zhao Ruizhong wouldn't avoid his responsibilities later and would cooperate with the Su Alliance to handle the Unrestrained Affairs.
Only then did Elder Luo turn to Xiang Beifei, who he knew was disguised as Zheng Xian, so he recognized Xiang Beifei at a glance.
"You rascal, as soon as I heard you went alone to the Unrestrained Base, I hurried over with a large troop to back you up. Are you okay? Did you get hurt?" Elder Luo asked.
"All's well, I'm fit as a fiddle," Xiang Beifei replied.
"That's good." Elder Luo suspiciously scanned the surroundings, "Eternal Sleep mentioned you found the Unrestrained Base? Are you sure this is the place?"
He had been searching for a while but hadn't found the entrance to Unrestrained's headquarters, nor had he located the main base. Just now, it was Xiaohei who had opened a projection gate for him. Being new here, he wasn't certain if this really was Unrestrained's base.
The ground near the large canyon was densely littered with a huge pile of people, stacked like a mountain. If this was Unrestrained's den, how come everyone was obliterated?
Was Unrestrained such a weak force?
"Otherwise what?" Xiang Beifei spread his hands.
"Why are there no Heavenly Connection realm experts?" Elder Luo then asked.
He had been worried about Heavenly Connection realm experts guarding Unrestrained's base. Worried that his own, Little White Crane and others, would be at a disadvantage, he had rushed over here non-stop.
Arriving here, he found everyone laid flat.
Logically, Unrestrained's people were all very powerful, but how come they had all collapsed?
This didn't seem very Unrestrained at all!
"It seems they were cautious and didn't come here, only those at the orifice transforming stage," Xiang Beifei said.
"Then what about the orifice transforming stage Unrestrained?"
"I finished them off!"
Xiang Beifei pointed at Qin Hongwu and others, who were still lying on the ground, barely alive. Their Beast Pills were enveloped in the aura of "Return to the Original State," any slight movement might obliterate them, which is why they hadn't been able to move.
"Eh?" Elder Luo looked surprised as he scrutinized the few people on the ground, then stared at Xiang Beifei, "You finished them off?"
Using his spiritual power, Xiang Beifei surreptitiously conveyed his voice to Elder Luo, so that no one else could hear, kindly reminding him, "Should you be that surprised? After all, I am your disciple. There are outsiders present, be confident, don't act inexperienced."
Thump!
Elder Luo raised his hand and gave Xiang Beifei a thump on the forehead!
"Ow!"
Xiang Beifei, covering his head in pain, found his Ronin Sword disguise disrupted by Elder Luo's knock.
"Always so cheeky! How could you take action in such a big matter without waiting for me? There was no Heavenly Connection realm this time, but what if there had been? What if a powerful one had caught you and cooked you? Where would I find you then?" Elder Luo said irritably.
Still feeling unsatisfied, he again raised his hand and knocked on Xiang Beifei's forehead.
Thump!
The sound was crisp and satisfying.
"Stop knocking! Stop knocking!"
Xiang Beifei's head buzzed with pain.
No matter how thick his skin or how many tricks up his sleeve, he couldn't withstand this old man's random knocks. A Heavenly Connection realm expert who ignored all restrictions here, including the blood altar seal, there was no way for Xiang Beifei to dodge Elder Luo's knocks.
"If there were Heavenly Connection realm experts, I certainly would have waited, Dad!"
He wasn't rash in his actions; how could he strike a rock with an egg? He only took action after the blood altar confirmed the situation of the entire canyon base.
"Still talking back! There's no Heavenly Connection realm here, but do you think others wouldn't have received the message and raced over? Now that I'm here, he probably dares not show up. But if he had arrived before me, who would have protected you? You never think of the consequences when you act!"
Elder Luo again raised his hand and delivered a hard smack!
Thump!
Xiang Beifei was nearly knocked senseless.
Please, even if you don't praise me, don't be so heavy-handed!
I may not be able to fight back, but I can run! The blood altar's projection formation provided countless portals, after all!
"I haven't knocked like this in a long time; my hands are out of practice."
Elder Luo pinched his own fingers, which made a creaking noise.
Xiang Beifei: "..."
He had been knocked around so much that he lost all his temper.
Upon seeing Xiang Beifei, who had just been incredibly powerful and nonchalantly defeated all the Unrestrained, getting his head knocked a few times like a wooden fish by Elder Luo, those of Eternal Sleep couldn't help but swallow their saliva!
In their eyes, this young man, Xiang Beifei, was simply too monstrous! Whether it was the history he had created in the past or the feats he had just accomplished alone that many couldn't achieve in their lifetime by subduing more than ten orifice transforming stage Unrestrained, they couldn't help but feel — no one could handle this guy anymore!
However, with a simple raise of his hand, Elder Luo had subdued him!
Indeed, the older ginger was the spicier!
Only a master could control his disciple so thoroughly.
This was a true boss!
The thirty-two Su People who had just gone through a fierce battle couldn't help but feel deeply moved, as Luo Yunxian's reputation in the entire Alliance was well deserved.
"But you did pretty well, those who need to be knocked should be knocked, and those who deserve praise should be praised."
Elder Luo was quite satisfied with Xiang Beifei, though this young man always acted unconventionally, he had never disappointed him. He was mostly worried that the boy acted too recklessly, and might get into trouble when he wasn't around.
After a while, Elder Luo asked again, "You managed to handle those orifice transforming stage Unrestrained, so does that mean your cultivation has reached the late God Refining stage?"
The Su People looked at each other once again.
Listen to this! Is this even human talk?
Reaching the late God Refining stage means being able to handle the orifice transforming stage?
Are your late God Refining stage and our understanding of it even the same concept?
"Yes, I reached it a couple of days ago." Xiang Beifei nodded.
"I see! That's a bit slow, I have higher expectations of you," Elder Luo said with an utterly calm expression.
But inside, he was already ranting!
—You rascal, how exactly are you cultivating! From entering the God Refining stage to the late God Refining stage, how did you manage it in less than half a year! UR-level Awakeners take several years, okay! Isn't it said that the higher the realm, the slower the strength increases? Why does it seem faster for you in the God Refining stage than in the Meridian Opening stage, is there something wrong with your head...
Elder Luo had countless words stuck in his throat, feeling uneasy until he spoke them out.
However, he maintained a robust facade!
The boy was right; he was the master. He couldn't afford to lose face by acting inexperienced.
"I will strive to break through to the orifice transforming stage this year!" Xiang Beifei said earnestly.
Elder Luo's eyelid twitched.
This year?
I remember you started cultivating quite recently with the Awakening System, right?
You're telling me you want to break through to the orifice transforming stage this year!!!
You... you... you...
Elder Luo felt like he was suffocating and could barely breathe.
But now he didn't even want to question it anymore, because he felt... felt that if this kid had something wrong with him and was acting impulsively again, it might actually be possible.
"It seems that knocking some sense into you quite often is very effective. Should I knock you again?" Elder Luo cracked his knuckles again, asking meaningfully.
Xiang Beifei involuntarily took a step back, widening his eyes, "The knocking... is it the knocking you mean?"
"Isn't it?"
Xiang Beifei: "..."
As the master and disciple were discussing knocking on the head, Zhao Ruizhong was utterly shocked when he saw Xiang Beifei's true face!
"Zheng Xian, you... you are Xiang Beifei?" Zhao Ruizhong looked at Xiang Beifei in disbelief.
Just now, Xiang Beifei had been knocked silly, and the disguise from the Ronin Sword had been broken, revealing his true face. Now that everyone knew what Xiang Beifei looked like, Zhao Ruizhong recognized him immediately!
"Oh, right, I was just about to say that," Xiang Beifei said, rubbing his dizzy head.
"Xiang Beifei!"
Zhao Ruizhong gasped!
This young man was now a very famous figure throughout Jiuzhou and a creator of numerous legendary deeds, but he had never expected this guy to disguise himself as the minor S-stage Meridian Opening Zheng Xian and come to his laboratory!
He had been discussing Beast Pill theories and Erha's Hyperspace Variable with Xiang Beifei recently, yet he had no idea who he was actually dealing with!
"Then... then you... my god, I was so confused, I almost killed you just now." Zhao Ruizhong thought of this and broke out in a cold sweat!
He had been exploited by the Unrestrained and had almost accidentally killed Xiang Beifei!
If it weren't for Xiang Beifei's strong capabilities, he would have become a sinner for the ages!
"It doesn't matter. There are plenty who want to kill me, one more or one less of you doesn't make a difference," Xiang Beifei wasn't too bothered by this.
Zhao Ruizhong: "..."
Is it really the same thing?
He secretly sweated and couldn't understand how Xiang Beifei could mention such a matter so nonchalantly.
