Chapter 402: 402, [Searching for You Thousands of Times] (Ask for monthly tickets!)
Lu Xun used to be puzzled when he encountered a particular phrase, wondering what kind of feeling it described?
The phrase was “Love at First Sight”.
He suddenly understood it now.
When he turned his head and saw this female player with the game nickname Lu Xiaoyu, he felt this “Love at First Sight” sensation.
Lu Xiaoyu was a nickname so familiar to him that it couldn’t be more familiar; he was the one who had chosen it.
Back then, they were playing another game, and the handle Lu Xiaoyu has been used by Lu Yu ever since.
The familiar facial features of this character also perfectly matched Lu Yu’s style of creating game characters.
Lu Yu’s characters in any game were similar. Put together, the characters would look like twins.
Lu Xun, on the other hand, was different. His character designs were always weird and wonderful.
To this, Lu Yu even commented, “Big brother isn’t as loyal as I am!”
Lu Xun would laugh and joke, “Indeed, I am a playboy!”
Now, as he watched the delicate-looking female avatar in front of him dressed in his black robe, his heartbeat slowed a half beat.
Sword Sheath could feel the index finger of his left hand, which was holding it, slightly trembling!
“Is this really Little Yu?” Lu Xun wondered in his heart.
Ever since he had traveled through time, he had deliberately dodged some questions.
He didn’t know whether he’d traveled back to the past or a parallel universe.
Since he had traveled before the game server was turned on, was there another ‘me’ on Earth?
Most importantly, according to his past life experiences, Lu Yu also played “Heavenly Dust”. So, would he have a chance to meet her again?
These questions filled his heart with various uncertainties.
It was at that moment that he realized he wasn’t as brave and detached as he’d imagined himself to be.
Meanwhile, even after several years of time-traveling, he would still occasionally think of Lu Yu.
Especially after the public testing of the game, with players arriving in large numbers, there was a possibility that Lu Yu would start playing “Heavenly Dust” one day.
His mind often raised some rather wild ideas.
No, extremely wild thoughts!
But most of the time, he suppressed them.
Whether out of rationality or a peculiar intuition, he told himself that it’s better not to do certain things. It’s not good for anyone.
His intuition, coupled with his years of experience in the Heavenly Dust Continent, all told him: “This world may not be as simple as I thought.”
However, today, he has finally met this female gamer who might just be Lu Yu!
At this moment, he couldn’t resist approaching her.
Lu Xun, like a puppet on strings, absentmindedly walked towards her.
However, the next moment, the Ghost King that he had forced back several feet, had come up behind him.
Dressed in a black robe and holding his Sword Sheath, Lu Xun stood with his back to the Ghost King. His head lowered, his eyes filled with cold killing intent.
“Don’t bother me!”
Without turning his head, Lu Xun raised his Sword Sheath directly.
The next moment, a sky full of Sword Qi burst from the Sword Sheath, Lu Xun had no intention of holding back.
Although the Ghost King was at level 52, relatively speaking, it was much easier to deal with than other creatures of the same power level.
Although its name was Ghost King, it couldn’t escape the fact that it was essentially just a Black Silly.
It didn’t know how to dodge, didn’t know strategies, didn’t know techniques…it only knew to attack straight on, and kill madly!
This was why, despite such a significant level difference, Lu Xun was confident enough to face the Ghost King alone.
He now didn’t even need to consume too much Divine Sense to precisely control these Sword Qi.
Because he just needed to pour out behind him, it would only take, and wouldn’t even dodge.
The players watching this scene were stupefied.
The appearance of the Purple Palace had already shocked them, yet the series of maneuvers by the Purple Palace now had opened their eyes even wider!
Lu Xun was seen silently walking forward without turning his head.
He held the Sword Sheath in his hand, countless Sword Qi erupted like crazy. From their perspective, they only saw a long river formed by the convergence of Sword Qi, which flowed ceaselessly!
The Ghost King began to retreat continuously, unable to resist the Sword Qi river. His body was slashed by Sword Qi in numerous places, causing lots of small wounds where black Ghost Qi was bubbling up and dissipating as a blurry black smoke.
“That’s so cool! Wow!”
“Real man, never look back at the explosion!”
“I just checked the leaderboard, Purple Palace is only at level 38 now. How is he so strong? Absolutely unbelievable!”
“The Sword is Near hasn’t made a move yet. The Purple Palace is apparently a Sword Cultivator, and he is dealing with Ghost King now without even drawing his sword!”
“Record this, record this! It’s rare to encounter Purple Palace, watching him in action live is definitely more thrilling than in the videos!”
“In love, totally in love. This man is too appealing! Wailing!”
Xiao Long Bao watched the man in black in front of her, utterly captivated with a dream-like feeling.
“This is Purple Palace! I can’t believe I’m actually seeing a real-life Purple Palace!” She cheered in her heart.
But the next moment, she realized that this claim might not be entirely accurate.
This is just a game, how could there be a living Purple Palace in it?
He’s just an NPC, though one that can be described with all the beautiful words… supremely talented, unequalled in the world.
“But… Why is he named Lu Xun? Ah, damn it! He shares the name with Little Fish’s older brother!” Xiao Long Bao couldn’t help but glance at Lu Xiaoyu who was next to him.
Lu Xiaoyu stared at the black-robed NPC in front of her, her eyes slightly dazed.
This was a face that was both unfamiliar and familiar. She was familiar because she had seen images and videos of the Purple Palace on online forums.
But she always deliberately avoided them.
Just because his name was Lu Xun.
Sometimes, she could still hear her brother’s slightly foolish voice in her ears: “Lu Xun, Lu Yu, we are the – Sturgeon Combo!”
Like lyrics from a song: The most terrifying thing is when memories roll over and over, tormenting without respite…
At this point, the Ghost King at the back let out a thunderous roar as its HP dropped to 50%.
Its nearly three-meter-tall body suddenly began to expand and the chaotic black gas that formed its body began to stretch. Its arms spread out, and black energy quickly spread out, extending and rushing towards Lu Xun from all directions.
“Watch out!” Lu Xiaoyu didn’t understand why she couldn’t help but exclaim.
Upon hearing this, Lu Xun immediately halted.
His patience had been entirely exhausted by the Ghost King.
“You shouldn’t have interfered at this time. Otherwise, you could have lived a little longer.” He shook his head, saying silently.
In the next moment, he disappeared from the players’ sight.
He took a leap and quickly reached a high position.
Streaks of black energy suddenly formed around him, mist spreading to the surrounding area.
Sword Qis, like feathers, hovered around him.
“Rise!” He roared, and countless Sword Qis surged forward from all angles, forming several Sword Arrays as they neared the Ghost King under Lu Xun’s sword technique.
– Reverse Ancient Five Elements Formation!
Following that, there was the long-forgotten fireworks display.
“Little Yu really loves watching fireworks.” He suddenly thought to himself.
Following this, five-colored Sword Qis exploded continuously around the Ghost King!
Viewing this spectacle from a distance, the players thought it was dazzling!
The Ghost King’s roar was completely drowned out by the continuous explosions, and its HP bar kept decreasing.
Seeing the scene in front of them, all players were stunned.
“Fireworks show! Is the Purple Palace slaying monsters or is this just a grand performance!”
“Damn! This is too artistic!”
The player named Lu Xiaoyu watched the scene in front of her dumbfounded. The reflection of the fireworks in her beautiful eyes left her speechless, her mouth slightly open and a faint look of confusion in her eyes.
“So… beautiful…” She couldn’t help but whisper.
At this time, everyone’s attention was focused on the Sword Qis which were exploding like fireworks, and no one was paying attention to the Ghost King’s HP bar.
The Ghost King quickly lost its HP.
Finger-tip Sword Qi gathered on Lu Xun’s fingertips. He landing lightly on the ground, his body slightly sinking. Positioning the Sword Qi at his waist, he made a fierce slash forward.
– Sword Drawing Technique.
The Ghost Qi that was soaring up was torn apart in a flash, and the mighty level 52 Ghost King was killed just like that!
“Ding! You have killed the Ghost King and gained 4.5 million Experience Points!”
The blurry and distorted Ghost Qi didn’t disperse immediately, it began to surge around, trying to regroup.
It wouldn’t be long before a large number of lower-level ghosts would be generated here.
However, Lu Xun temporarily lost interest in them.
He looked at Lu Xiaoyu not far away and checked her basic information.
When he saw her guild name, he couldn’t help but pause.
“One Night Fish and Dragon Dance, what an interesting guild name,” he commented.
In his past life, Lu Yu didn’t seem to be part of this guild. Lu Xun had also never heard of this guild.
The name of this guild was actually a line from a poem, from the famous Qing Yu An by Xin Qiji.
“The Phoenix flute sounds, the jade pot turns, one night fish and dragon dance.”
However, the most famous line in this poem is not that one.
He looked at Lu Xiaoyu, silently reciting the final part of the poem, which seemed appropriate for the moment:
“Searched for him in the crowd,
Suddenly turning around, there he was, under dimming lantern’s light.”
