Chapter 128: The Grudge From A Food Fight
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Lu Zhan, who was pulled to his feet, was confused while Tong Gua awkwardly brushed off the dust on him before patting him on the shoulder.
“The ground is too cold. Stand up and talk, brother.”
Upon seeing this, Lu Zhan noticed that sothing was apparently amiss. After pondering for a mont, his expression began to grow murderous.
He realized that the white Big Goose had once again lost his powers and returned to being a weak chicken.
As he reached this conclusion, Lu Zhan imdiately slapped Tong Gua and sent him flying flat on the ground. He then bent over to pick up his sword and close in on Tong Gua.
“Weren’t you very powerful just now? Where did your cockiness go?” Lu Zhan, who had again gained control over the situation, reached out to massage his swollen face as his bloodthirstiness ran rampant.
Tong Gua, who was slamd to the ground, put on an apologetic smile.
“Brother, as the saying goes, relationships are built by exchanging blows and now that we’re even, we’re considered brothers. So, take it easy. I will surely help my brother in the future. My na is Tong Gua the Ghost King, and I am quite useful around Beiqi…”
Slap!
Tong Gua could not even finish his sentence before he was slapped and brought to the ground by Lu Zhan again. Lu Zhan lifted his sword with his right hand.
“Ahhh! Soone’s trying to murder a goose. Save ! You can disgrace the crane but not kill it. I am fine with you hitting , scolding , or insulting , but please, don’t kill !” Tong Gua who was at death’s doorstep started to scream with his neck craned.
The viewers in the live streaming channel were all rendered speechless once again upon witnessing this scene.
The mighty and impressive image of all Ghost Kings in the minds of the players, which was built up by Rock Ghost King, was completely destroyed by Tong Gua’s coquettish wail.
At this mont, all the players thought that this Big Goose was bringing sha upon the other Ghost Kings.
Without warning, the sword swiftly cut through the air and whooshed toward Tong Gua’s direction. Tong Gua had no choice but to hopelessly close his eyes.
However, Tong Gua did not feel any expected pain after so ti. It peeped through one eye to find that Lu Zhan was standing still with indecisiveness written across his face.
[Special Quest: Demand For Surrender]
Quest Description: Request Tong Gua the Ghost King to read out the loyalty pledge to beco a new NPC for the ga, the pledge is as follows… (500 words omitted)
Quest Rewards: 10,000 account-binding soul coins, one piece of custom-made Epic Level quality weapon (Level 50)
(Note: Account-binding soul coins cannot be traded among players. They can only be used to purchase shop items or at the Cultivation Pavilion and for interaction with NPCs.)
Lu Zhan looked at the quest rewards before averting his gaze to the annoying Tong Gua. He fell into a dilemma.
The rewards of this quest were rather generous. The custom-made Epic Level quality weapon was especially tempting Lu Zhan.
Yet, Lu Zhan felt like he had suffered a big loss if he was to just let this Big Goose off like this.
After so careful consideration, Lu Zhan did not put his weapon away. Instead, he rolled up his sleeves and was ready to get his revenge on Tong Gua for hitting his face before completing the quest.
After so brutal beating, Tong Gua was gasping for air on the ground with its eyes brimming with tears. He knew that his crane life was coming to an end, but never had he expected this day to co.
“Big Goose, do you want to live?” Lu Zhan threatened and placed his sword by Tong Gua’s neck.
“Of course!” Tong Gua beca lively again after hearing that.
“Good, just repeat after and I will spare your life!” a hint of mischief flashed across Lu Zhan’s eyes.
Tong Gua was confused upon hearing this but it nodded earnestly, agreeing to the terms before Lu Zhan regretted them and changed his mind.
“Ahem, listen carefully and repeat after …”
The dumbfounded Tong Gua imdiately repeated Lu Zhan’s every word to save his own life. However, as he continued to articulate each word, the uneasiness in him grew, and upon finishing the last few sentences, Tong Gua cursed bitterly.
“Shit, this is a fucking soul sacrificing pledge. You only want to make into your ride, you moron!”
Lu Zhan was flustered as he heard this. However, he was the least bothered about the pledge. He quickly rolled up his sleeves before landing another blow on Tong Gua who was already on the ground.
“Are you going to repeat it or not!?”
“Read your ass… OK! I will read it!” Tong Gua was instantly unnerved after noticing Lu Zhan, who was viciously lifting his sword again.
A living dog is better than a dead lion, Tong Gua comforted himself amidst his fury.
Tong Gua looked up at the sky upon finishing the whole soul sacrificing pledge. He was neither happy nor unhappy. He only thought about how miserably he had failed in life as a crane. He thought that it was extrely pitiable.
At that instant, a rift appeared above Tong Gua before it sucked him into it.
On the other hand, Lu Zhan received a notification, saying that the quest was accomplished.
“Special Quest accomplished. You have earned 10,000 account-binding soul coins. The custom-made Epic Level quality weapon will be forged, free of charge, after the birth of the new NPC ‘Tong Gua the Ghost King’. (Please be patient)”
Within the Artifact Channel.
Lu Wu and Bei Li were loathed at the sight of the confused Tong Gua.
Naturally, Lu Wu and Bei Li were very much aware when Lu Zhan encountered him. However, they were taken aback by his embarrassing act.
In fact, it was Bei Li’s idea to demand Tong Gua to surrender.
According to Bei Li, Tong Gua the Ghost King was a very useful character. He was not only the reincarnation of the guardian spirit of the Land of Beiqi, he was also a wonderful caster. In fact, his forr student was Beiqi’s number one caster, who did research on the Rune Warrior.
It could be said that Tong Gua the Ghost King was the first caster of Beiqi.
Currently, there were more than a hundred NPCs under Lu Wu but their skills in casting were limited. They were only capable of forging limited weapons by using their soul power with the provided templates, but could not create any personal weapons as that required high proficiency.
That was why Lu Wu and Bei Li targeted Tong Gua and intended to make him a new special NPC.
Tong Gua’s skill was also needed to cast the Epic Level weapon that was made as one of the rewards of the previous quest.
“Big Goose, you’re truly embarrassing. You’ve ruined the image of Ghost Kings! You said, ‘You can disgrace the crane but not kill it…’? Sha on you!” Bei Li could not resist the urge to mock him.
Tong Gua had no idea why he appeared in this place. However, he stood arrogantly with arms akimbo after noticing Bei Li.
“Oh… so it was you, Little Li. Why don’t you co forward and pay respect to this king!”
A giant hamr ford in Bei Li’s hand after hearing that before she viciously swung it at Tong Gua. She greeted it with a smile on her face.
“Little Li greets Tong Gua the Ghost King!”
Boom!
The attack caused Tong Gua to roll his eyes. He trembled, feeling as though his soul was getting smashed out of his body.
Following Bei Li’s gesture, a glob of soul power took form in the Artifact Channel. The soul power invaded the body of the dying Tong Gua.
“Lord Tong Gua, is there anything else you need from Little Li?”
Tong Gua who just escaped from death quickly waved his hand, “Little Li, we can talk this out. Put down your hamr first…”
Bei Li nodded obediently and the hamr in her hand disappeared. However, it was imdiately replaced by a huge machete that was a hundred tis longer.
Tong Gua was flustered.
Similarly, Lu Wu was taken aback, too.
“Do you have a score to settle with him?” Lu Wu asked softly.
“He thought that he was stronger than and snatched my snacks away from a few tis,” Bei Li’s eyes welled with tears as she recalled the past while the long machete in her hands began to expand.
As expected, snatching Bei Li’s food would result in her grudges. Lu Wu instantly made a ntal note on this to prevent himself from upsetting her in the future.
At long last, Bei Li held on to her long machete, after she was convinced by Lu Wu. However, she was still eyeing Tong Gua unkindly and this made him uneasy.
“Big Goose, why have you beco so weak?”
Tong Gua glowered after hearing Bei Li’s question and he answered regretfully, “I cultivated the ‘Way of Fate’ and I could have fought with Tao Wu for several rounds when fate was with . But, when it’s not the right ti, I couldn’t even beat a Wandering Soul and I hate it. (gritting teeth)”
