Chapter 114
Chapter 114 – Turning Point at Jinyang – Part 5
At the corner of the government wall, an old man with white hair and white long beard stood and observed the events in Jinyang City since this morning .
His name was Zou Ci, the authorized native cultivator who served the System Goddess . His duty was to oversee the actions of all otherworlders in this world . If there was a mishap that could cause mass destruction or if an immortal came here to bully the natives, he would interfere and arrest the perpetrator on the spot .
Yesterday, he was the one who was responsible for restoring Tong's [Demonic Seal] in order to stop the potential demonic rampage . After the incident, he remained here to observe Tong's action and investigated his future plans .
By his side, a white hair young lady with a grim expression touched a menu screen in front of her .

The girl had a wry smile on her face after she saw the price . All of the skills that were sold out used to be priced at 10,000 per one skill . However, it got more expensive all of a sudden .
"Deity System, why does the price increase? I thought it should have been 10,000 Lifespans for one skill . "
[For an immortal like yourself, you have to pay 5 times the market price . Besides, your current lifespans were mine from the start . I have to right to reclaim it back any time I want to!]
Liu Yang gritted her teeth in bitterness . She was arrested by Zou Ci the moment she was born into this world because she created [True Self] passive skill, which Zou Ci deemed that it was a threat to the natives .
Her [True Self] skill upkeep was changed from 10,000 a year to a million lifespans a year, which was impossible for her to remain in this world .
Then the system goddess chained her with the [System Prisoner#1] as a punishment . Liu Yang later was forced to work under Zou Ci until he was satisfied with her moral conduct .
Right now, she had only a bit over 50,000 lifespans at the moment, so she could buy only one skill . She wanted to get the [Eyes of Domination] at first . Then she glanced at the muscular tall man who was pummeling another young man inside the cracked building .
'Lu Bu can't kill that demon with his power alone . '
'With the restriction and Zou Ci's overseeing, I can't approach them . '
'Then, how about I do it this way?'
The white hair girl chose to buy the [Blessing of Spirits], which was the weakest skill among the three . The moment the skill appeared in her status menu, she cast it on Lu Bu .
'Now his physical attacks become magic attacks . How are you going to deal with this?'
The girl laughed in her heart with a wide grin on her face .
Zou Ci, who remained quiet for all these times, peered the girl with the corner of his eyes . Noticed that the girl was up to no good, he snapped his fingers .
Static of electricity zapped the white hair girl and wrapped her under the lightning currents .
"KYAAAAA!!!"
The girl screamed in pain . Her skins were burnt by the tribulation lighting, but they regenerated themselves at a noticeable speed with naked eyes .
"Goddess Liu Yang, please refrain from your immature action . " Zou Ci reprimanded the girl .
"Great Sage, he's a demon! It's our job to exterminate the likes of them in this world! Why are you favoring him!?"
The girl, Goddess Liu Yang, roared at the elder sage while she was undergoing torture by the electric currents .
"That young man has yet to transform into a full-fledged demonic being . Moreover, his soul is purer than yours and that corrupted prince by worlds apart . We don't know if he will grow into a monster or a saint . We cannot harm him . "
"Hahahaha! That's rich, Great Sage! He slaughtered thousands of natives here, and you called him pure? You don't want to harm that Demon Halfling but you assisted that sinner prince! Heck, you arrested me but you let those two devils loose! What are you, a demon worshiper? Your hypocrisy is not even lower than the angels in Heaven! Once you die, I'm sure you will get along with them well! HAHAHA!" Liu Yang laughed and mocked Zou Ci .
Zou Ci, the native cultivator and the Great Sage of this world, did not bother bickering with the Goddess in human skin . He closed his eyes and ignored the insult from Liu Yang .
'If it wasn't because of the world's law, I would have killed both Liu Ping and Wang Li myself . I helped Liu Ping because Wang Li was more dangerous than him . '
'Wang Li will lead an army of the dead and kill everyone if she becomes the Empress . The world will end once she rules over this country . '
'But Liu Ping will soon be destroyed by his own karma . It's better to cripple Wang Li and let the karma judges Liu Ping . '
'That Grand Demoness in the palace also has the same karmic aura as that young man . She also has the potential to become a saint . No need to interfere with what she's doing for now . '
'The little girl at Tianshui is odd and weak . There is no reason to arrest her . She won't be able to do much in this world . '
'I hope that the Grand Demoness won't help Wang Li… or the chaos will be worsened . '
Zou Ci opened his eyes and gazed at Tong, who was running away from Lu Bu .
'Zhang Tong … Which path will you choose?'
…
…
8 . 55 AM .
The sudden fall from the rooftop stunned Tong's vision . He did not feel any pain due to his physical attack immunity skill, but he was still vulnerable to the dizziness . However, Tong could tell that he fell through the roof, and he was lying face down inside the main hall .
Before he could get up, Tong felt another impact on his skull . He could feel a cold blade hitting on his face, his neck, and his left chest several times . Tong continued to endure until he could readjust his eyesight .
When his vision was clear, Tong could see Lu Bu, who stood at his side . The God of War had a weird look on his face . It was a combination of astonishment, shocked, amusement, and frustration .
"Fengxian, I'm not your punching bag . Can you stop that?"
Tong attempted to negotiate in the hope that he could buy some time . He remembered that the effect should last about 40 minutes to an hour at the latest .
Once the brainwashing effect was over, Lu Bu would come back to his sense .
"Sorry, Tong . I need to kill you for my master, though I like you . "
"You sounded like a terrible kind of women in my hometown . We call someone like you a Yandere . "
"Don't you call me a woman, you scum! Now die!"
More barrages and slashes from Lu Bu crescent halberd rained upon Tong's body . His clothes were shattered and tattered . The iron armor that Tong worn on the outside had already been crushed and torn into fragments .
Tong attempted to stand up or rolled his body away, but Lu Bu stomped him onto the ground without letting him escape .
Lu Bu's halberd speed was also inhuman . Although Lu Bu's speed was so fast that he left after images after each strike, Tong managed to count that he was hit 3 times per a second . Each hit was aimed at the vital spots, such as his eyes, his neck, his skull, his left chest, and even his balls . The force behind each strike was enough to break the solid marble floor .
"You are being unreasonable, Fengxian! Don't blame me for this!"
Tong mustered all his strength, killing intent, and resolve .
*CLANK*
He caught the crescent halberd by the shaft with his right hand to stop the attack .
Tong lifted his body up and strike Lu Bu with his left fist, aiming at Lu Bu's golden balls .
*PEOK*
The low-blow fist connected!
Lu Bu's attack paused . He staggered backward with a distorted expression on his face, which reddened from the pain and anger .
Although he was wearing a full set of iron armor, his lower part armor was made by leathers sewed with clothes . The leather pants were designed for horsemen like Lu Bu who spent most of his time on the horseback .
As a result, he was vulnerable here .
"BASTARD! THAT WAS CHEATING!!"
"SCREW YOU! YOU'VE BEEN HITTING MINE FOR OVER A HUNDRED TIMES! I ONLY HIT YOU BACK ONCE, BUT YOU CALL ME CHEATING!?"
As both of them were bickering at each other, Tong pulled out another pistol from his inventory and aimed at Lu Bu's left leg .
Lu Bu's instinct cried inside his mind . He jumped to the side with his halberd blocking the front
*BANG*
*TINK*
The bullet missed the target and pierced through the ground .
Lu Bu glanced at the floor that was hit by the bullet . Then he turned to glare at Tong who took five steps back to gain a distance .
"Oi, Tong! Are you a sorcerer like Feihong and that scum!?"
"So what? You forced my hands!"
"Did you try to kill me just now!? I thought we were friends!"
"FOOk you! You wanted to kill me first! What do you want me to do!? Roll over and let you chop me into pieces!?"
"Exactly! I want you dead!"
Lu Bu exploded out his killing intent, which enveloped the entire city . At the same time, a strange light ball flew into the building out of nowhere and entered Lu Bu's body .
Traces of electricity spark circled around Lu Bu's body which intensified his aura . The ground trembled as if there was a magnitude 3 earthquake with his body as its center .
'Holy Shit! Are you sure you're a human and not a freaking super sOOyan!?'
Tong was flabbergasted by the sudden phenomenon . He thought that only reincarnators would have strange cheats or supernatural powers . However, Lu Bu just went sOOyan on Tong .
None of them was aware that Lu Bu was strengthened by Liu Yang in secret .
