My Master Disconnected Yet Again Chapter 117

Chapter 117 - The Weighty Imaginary Figure

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“Who are you, and why have you invaded the City Lord’s abode?” The man flicked his wrist and sent yet another immortal sword flying toward Shen Ying. The sword stopped just two inches away from Shen Ying’s face. He shouted, “Talk!”

“Er…” Shen Ying hesitated. “If I said I got lost, will you believe me?”

“You got lost in someone else’s abode?” The man frowned even more deeply and tutted, “Hmph, you’re wearing a black robe and you’ve only just ascended to become an Earth Immortal. Don’t think I don’t know why you have come.”

“Well…” This is really just a normal black robe.

“I advise you to leave quickly and drop any ideas you have about Weighty Tower, or else… Don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

“Weighty Tower?” Shen Ying paused. She looked up to see the tower behind the man. It was indeed so tall that it looked like it could reach the clouds. The tower was painted completely black, and it almost blended perfectly into the night sky. If she had not looked closely, she would not have noticed there was a tower there.

“Seeing as you have just ascended to immortality and are still relatively weak in your cultivation, the City Lord will surely deal with you mercifully if you repent now,” he said in a deep voice.

Shen Ying felt his immortal power surge, unsure if he was showing off or if it was subconscious.

She tilted her head but said nothing in response. She looked behind the man and suddenly said, “Hey, do you know where the main door is?”

“You’re still thinking of escaping at this stage?” He raised his eyebrows and glared art her, “The City Lord’s Abode is filled with highly skilled immortals. You will surely be caught again before you even reach the front yard.”

“Oh.”

“If you understand, you better… Wait! What are you doing?”

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Shen Ying began to walk toward the man. He went pale and shouted anxiously, “Stop right there! Don’t come any nearer, do you hear me?”

But Shen Ying paid no attention to him. She walked right past the immortal swords, as if they were not dangerous at all. She continued walking toward him and walked right through his body.

The man who had been so high and mighty earlier ran away so quickly that it looked like he had just disappeared into thin air.

Yet she could still hear his voice shouting nervously, “Stand still! Do not get any closer to the Weighty Tower, do you hear me!”

“I say…” Shen Ying ignored him and continued walking toward the tall tower. She pushed open the door with her hands and said to the small figure seated inside, “Little friend, the next time you try to bluff someone, remember to disguise your voices as well.”

A strong man who looked about twenty years old with a voice of a child coming from behind him – she gave this voice-over zero marks out of ten.

“You… you…” Seated in the middle of the room was a small child dressed in blue, with a look of pure panic on his face. He pointed to her with his little finger and said, “How did you get through my imaginary body and the defensive array outside the door?”

Shen Ying paused. Forget about the failure of an imaginary body – was there even a defensive array at the door?

“Little friend!” She shouted as she walked into the room. The child retreated in fear, and she could not help but kneel down and pull him back toward her. “Don’t be afraid, Auntie is only here to ask for directions. Tell me where the main door is.”

“You…” The child’s eyes widened as he studied her suspiciously. “You’re really… here to ask for directions?”

“Yes,” she answered, nodding. In order to prove she was not a weird auntie, she continued, “If you want, you can just point the direction in which the main door is located!”

“You… you’re not here to capture me?” The child asked. He looked confused and utterly shocked.

“Why would I capture you?” She spread her hands to show that she meant no harm.

The child was shaken. “You… you’re really not here to take me away?”

“Yes.” Shen Ying nodded and quickly added, “I’m poor at the moment, I can’t afford to raise a child.”

“Really?”

“Yes, really. I promise you in the name of Ultraman. Is that enough? Can you tell me where the main door is now?”

“…” What is Ultraman? The child hesitated and finally relaxed after a long while. He scanned her from head to toe once more and then said, “This is the back end of the City Lord’s Abode. Behind us is the Immortal Decapitating Cliff – you cannot exit from there. If you want to get out of this place, you can only go through the front yard.”

“Oh.” She nodded. “Thank you, Little Friend!” She started to get up.

“Wait…” The child suddenly tugged at her sleeve. He hesitated for awhile and said, “Well… you should wait for a while before you go out. My father and grandfather are at the front yard subduing demons. If you walk out of here now, they will mistake you as a demon and kill you too.” He looked at her worriedly and looked as if he suddenly recalled something. He said, “I… I am telling you this because I don’t think you’re that bad a person!”

“Alright, thanks!” Shen Ying smiled. She reached out and patted him on the head. Then, she thought for a while and said, “Hey… there are over ten people out there who are wearing the same black robe as me. They’re the real human traffickers. To be safe, you’d better go to the front yard to look for your father and grandfather.”

“There are people in the courtyard as well!” The child exclaimed. “Are they also Earth Immortals?”

“Er… I think so.” She really could not tell.

“No wonder they could get in here.” The array in the yard targeted Immortal Qi. Earth Immortals who had just ascended to the immortal realm still had remnants of Spirit Qi in them and did not possess thick Immortal Qi. That was why they could get past the array without being detected.

“Why don’t you come with me?” Shen Ying suggested.

The child’s expression fell and his eyes seemed to darken. He pointed to his feet in disappointment. “I cannot leave this array.”

“…” Array? She looked down and saw that there was indeed an array less than a metre in radius where the boy was sitting. She would not have noticed if the boy had not pointed it out to her.

“The Weighty Tower is protected by the defensive array that my grandfather set up. Even Earth Immortals cannot enter this tower easily,” he said proudly. He paused and added, “You’re not counted! As soon as the problem in the front yard is taken care of, they will…”

Before he could finish, they felt the ground beneath them shake. There were loud crashing sounds coming from his right. It sounded like something was exploding.

Shen Ying stood up and looked outside. She saw black smoke fill the air outside of the yard, and the black smoke was being blown toward them. She could not see anything beyond a hundred feet – not even a shred of moonlight.

The black aura entered the room through the door and the windows, causing the temperature to drop steadily. A bone-chilling presence pervaded the room. The ground was shaking even more vigorously; it felt like it was about to break apart.

Shen Ying widened her eyes: What a big.. black smog!

(⊙ o ⊙)

“Hey, Little… Eh?” She wanted to warn the child behind her, but found that he was now completely pale. Beads of cold sweat dripped from his forehead and he looked like he was in terrible pain. “What’s the matter? Little Friend, are you alright? Don’t scare me!”

The child seemed to be in greater and greater pain. He was now curling up into a ball and he was beginning to bleed profusely, crying out in pain. She started to carry him, but the array suddenly emitted a great beam that shot right into the sky, causing the roof and the entire tower to collapse. The beam got brighter and brighter, illuminating the night sky.

Shen Ying’s heart thumped.

Well… The child’s parents wouldn’t beat her up, would they?

Everyone said that Yi Qing was the number one Sword Cultivator in the world, with a swordsmanship and cultivation that no one could surpass. Whether it was when he was cultivating in the Lower Realm, or when he was in the Ten Heavens of the Upper Realm, he has always been undefeated. Yi Qing laughed and said: “That is because you do not know of my Master. If we speak of cultivation, I am not as good as she by a long mile. Thinking about it, at the start, out of the ten Heavenly Emperors of the Upper Realm, my Master beat up nine, and the one left was myself.” “Master? You actually have a Master! Who? How come we never heard of it?” “My Master is…. Eh? Master? Master! And my Master? Has anyone seen my Master?” A person next to them quietly raised her paw. “I am here!”
