Tian Du City.
Sword Card Master Association.
Lu Ming pondered deeply for a long time, but he still could not make a decision.
This was a young genius girl like Zhou Yun.
Yang Liu-er.
It was a very artistic name.
She was sixteen years old and a super genius. She had just graduated from high school and she was already a peak five-star! She was also one of the most talented girls that Zhou Yun had chosen from the list!
"Sixteen years old?"
Lu Ming was very puzzled.
It was true.
He remembered that there were very few girls in the list provided by the teenager in white. Furthermore, their ages ranged from a few years old to thirty years old. Why were they all young girls?
"That's right."
Zhou Yun blinked. "Don't you think that this age is the easiest to flirt with?"
"…"
Lu Ming was deep in his thoughts.
He suddenly felt that Master Zhou Yun had some misunderstandings about him recruiting talented disciples … He only wanted a talent bonus. To hell with flirting!!!
Also!
You are sixteen years old as well! Is it appropriate to say this?!
Or perhaps …
What is she hinting at?!
Oo …
That should not be it.
This young lady should have been with the teenager in white. The two of them had been through life and death. They should be living in harmony every night!
However …
Come to think of it, the teenager in white seemed to have been with the teenager in black for the past two days …
Had he fallen in love with someone else?
Well …
Lu Ming pondered deeply for a moment.
He suddenly felt that the disciples of the Sword Card Master Association needed to have a better understanding of love, especially at the age of sixteen years old.
"Don't worry.
"I will stand up for you."
Lu Ming consoled her.
"Huh?"
Zhou Yun was puzzled.
Stand up for what?!
Forget it.
It was not important.
Right now, Yang Liu-er's matter was more important. She had been busy for a few days before she managed to persuade this young genius girl to join her!
"About Yang Liu-er …"
Zhou Yun asked.
"Let me think."
Lu Ming looked at the information in his hands again.
Yang Liu-er.
Peak five-star.
A super genius girl who was preparing to break through to Six Stars. Due to the special circumstances, she might encounter some danger. Therefore, she needed to be protected 24 hours a day!
If she succeeded, she was willing to become a Sword Card Master!
And the person she chose —
It was Lu Ming.
But …
"Sigh."
Lu Ming let out a long sigh. This was what he was worried about.
Looking at his almost perfect self in the mirror, then looking at the 24-hour personal protection that the young lady had requested, Lu Ming was instantly filled with worry …
He had a feeling that this lady had ulterior motives!
It was true that the Sword Card Master Association needed geniuses, but it was far from the point where he had to sell himself?!
"Can't we find someone else?"
Lu Ming was having a headache.
"No."
Zhou Yun shook her head. "In our association, only you have the ability to do so."
"Why doesn't she hire bodyguards?"
Lu Ming was puzzled.
"Because she broke through at home."
Zhou Yun explained, "Her family background is excellent, and her father has prepared excellent resources for her. In theory, she can achieve a perfect breakthrough."
"Home?"
Lu Ming was even more confused.
How could there be any danger in breaking through at home?
"…"
Zhou Yun paused. "Her father has three wives and five children. She is the child of Mr. Yang's first deceased wife. His two current stepmothers have nothing to do with her."
"…"
Lu Ming rolled his eyes.
Fine.
He understood now.
This was a fight for the wealth of a rich family.
Anyway.
Due to certain reasons, it was not convenient for the young lady to hire bodyguards. Therefore, she could only hire a friend who was around her age to prevent any accidents.
And Lu Ming's age and combat ability met her requirements!
Therefore …
She had just reached an agreement with Zhou Yun.
This kind of thing …
Lu Ming thought for a long time and decided not to get involved.
Without the intervention of the police, in a faraway suburb, Lu Ming might perish together with them if they were to launch an underhanded attack. It was too risky!!!
After all, he was very handsome!
"Help me reject it."
Lu Ming looked calm.
"Are you sure?"
Zhou Yun was somewhat surprised.
"Yes."
Lu Ming was very certain.
Personal protection for 24 hours … In the end, it would definitely become the style of a website with a 'p' prefix. This was something that Lu Ming could not tolerate!
I treated you as my disciple and you actually want to woo me?!
How could that be possible?!
"Alright."
Zhou Yun felt a little regretful. "If we can get her to join us, it will be easier to get the boys from her school to join us in the future."
"School belle?"
Lu Ming's expression stirred slightly.
"Yes."
Zhou Yun nodded slightly. "Because of her super talent and absolute ability, as well as her extraordinary looks, she is the most popular student in that school."
"Oh?"
Lu Ming squinted his eyes.
"Do you have photos?"
"Uh … It's not in the information but I have a few in my personal collection."
Zhou Yun switched on her communication device and showed a few photos to Lu Ming. Lu Ming was instantly amazed. This look, this figure, this gaze …
"Yun-er."
"Huh?"
"I think I can accept the bodyguard's suggestion just now."
"Huh? Huh?"
Zhou Yun was puzzled.
You agreed just like that?!
"If the other party is outstanding enough, it is indeed worth investing more resources.
"For the development of the association!
"For the respect of the genius disciples!"
Lu Ming said in a serious manner, "If she can really influence the choices of the subsequent geniuses, perhaps we can give it a try. It will only take 24 hours."
"Understood."
Zhou Yun was full of emotions.
Master was after all a master. He was extraordinary.
He could not be tempted by the benefits and easily reject the mission! He could also sacrifice himself for the future of the association to complete the mission! He was able to take it and let it go!
This was a hero of the current era!
Hence …
The bodyguard's mission was finalized very quickly.
Content: Lu Ming will accompany this lady and successfully break through to Six Stars. He only needs to fend off possible accidents.
Of course.
There might be no enemies at all.
…
The next day.
In the afternoon.
In a certain hotel.
Lu Ming arrived as scheduled.
Miss Yang Liu-er was as beautiful as Zhou Yun in the photos.
She was domineering.
Here, Lu Ming had a more detailed conversation with Miss Yang Liu-er. He also found out why she needed someone to protect her.
Seven-colored tea.
A type of expensive energy tea. It could provide sufficient pure spirit energy in an instant to assist in a breakthrough. The disadvantage was that the energy was too violent and one could not move while consuming it!
The most interesting thing was …
This tea was actually given by one of Yang Liu-er's stepmothers.
"Why did you use it then?"
Lu Ming was surprised.
"She gave it to my father in front of him.
"She is provoking me!"
Yang Liu-er sneered. "Don't you think it's fun to break through in front of others and to use her resources while she looks helpless?"
Lu Ming was speechless.
Goodness.
This family is full of ruthless people!
You rich people's hearts are indeed all black!
Inexplicably …
He felt like he was reading a novel about the coriander of the Niohao Lu Clan.
…
At night.
Lu Ming followed the young lady home.
In the living room.
The people from the Yang family seemed to be there.
They also knew that Yang Liu-er had chosen to break through tonight. Therefore, most of them had returned. The person in the middle should be Yang Liu-er's father.
Beside him were two beautiful women who were of high class.
Well …
They were undoubtedly the two madams of the Yang family.
"This is …"
Father Yang looked in surprise at the young boy that his daughter brought in.
"My classmate."
Yang Liu-er said calmly, "I heard that I'm going to break through to Six Stars today, so I specially came over to learn."
"Oh?"
Father Yang's eyes lit up.
Classmate?
This appearance …
He was not inferior to his younger self!!!
"Hello classmate, hello classmate."
Father Yang felt gratified. He took the initiative to pull Lu Ming to his side and asked softly, "Young brother, I wonder what your thoughts are on marrying into the family?"
Lu Ming was speechless.
"Dad!"
Yang Liu-er rolled her eyes angrily.
"Okay, okay, okay."
Father Yang comforted her. "Let's not talk about this. Liu-er, I have prepared the resources for you to break through. It's definitely enough!"
"There's no need!"
Yang Liu-er sneered. "You're so busy. How would you have time to prepare them? I'm afraid that the lady beside you prepared them. Hehe, I'll do it myself."
Upon finishing her words …
Her gaze swept across the women beside her father.
"Let's go!"
She brought Lu Ming back to her villa.
"Sigh …"
Father Yang sighed.
This child …
"She is very wary of you."
Father Yang sighed.
In order for his daughter to break through successfully and not fall behind the geniuses, his wife had worked hard for several months before she managed to obtain some Rainbow Tea!
This child …
"It's okay."
Madam Yang said gently, "It's fine as long as she's happy. It's fine for her to break through in her villa. I've already asked the security guards to prepare more. There shouldn't be a problem."
"That classmate of hers …"
Father Yang pondered deeply.
He was still a little worried.
After all, he was too good-looking …
What was the use of being good-looking? He knew this very well! Second Brother Zhang, who had been his classmate for ten years, had been single for thirty years. When he was the teenager's age, he had already killed hundreds of people …
"That classmate of hers is not ordinary."
Madam Yang chuckled and whispered in Father Yang's ear.
"Oh?"
Father Yang's eyes lit up.
In that case …
That was good.
…
Right then …
Yang Liu-er's villa.
Lu Ming followed her in curiously.
He had to admit that the life of the rich was boring and simple. She lived alone in a villa and she had to knock on the door …
"I'm preparing to break through."
Yang Liu-er closed the door of the villa.
She activated the restriction.
She did not want to give the two madams too much time to prepare.
"Okay."
Lu Ming nodded to indicate that he understood. "I don't think the two madams are bad people."
"You can't judge a book by its cover,"
Yang Liu-er said coldly.
Of her father's two wives, the second madam was full of hostility towards her. However, she was most wary of the gentle and considerate first madam.
"Alright."
Lu Ming shrugged.
He took out a few cards and stood by the young lady's side to protect her.
"Thank you."
The young lady felt slightly relieved.
Just as her heart was warmed, she saw Lu Ming picking up the few Energy Cards that she used to break through. "I might have depleted a lot of energy tonight. I'll use the Energy Cards in advance."
Yang Liu-er was speechless.
Forget it.
She took a deep breath and consumed the Seven Color Tea.
Bang!
Seven-colored lights surged.
The energy around Yang Liu-er suddenly increased!
Breakthrough.
It had begun.
"This is the Seven Color Tea?"
Lu Ming squinted his eyes.
Interesting.
He watched curiously as Yang Liu-er broke through. As for protecting her, he was not too worried. Yang Liu-er's father was around. These people would not mess around, right?
He felt that …
It was fine for Yang Liu-er to let her imagination run wild!
The intelligence quotient of a rich person should not be that low?!
In the past, people dared to kill people in public because they were too backward! There were no surveillance cameras, fingerprints, abilities or genes. They could kill as they pleased!
But now?
No one would dare to mess around!
Therefore …
Lu Ming felt that the main reason for this event was that Yang Liu-er lacked a sense of security.
Well …
Therefore …
Seeing that Yang Liu-er had begun to break through, he cut a piece of watermelon on the table and ate it with a peace of mind.
You don't say.
She had everything she wanted in this villa. From fruits to melon seeds, they were all top-notch. They contained a lot of energy and were very beneficial for cultivation!
This was also the reason why Zhao Yunshan could attain Six Stars despite his average talent.
Take a look …
Growing up in such an environment, how could he not attain Six Stars?!
This was a kryptonite big shot!
Needless to say, this lady was very talented and had a good family background. Basically, she did not have to do anything and she could attain Six Stars!
She had far surpassed Zhao Yunshan!
Crunch.
Crunch.
Lu Ming was having a good time eating the watermelon.
Yang Liu-er, who was in the midst of breaking through, was speechless.
"Lady.
"Focus on breaking through."
Lu Ming noticed her gaze and revealed a kind smile. "I will protect you well."
Crunch.
Crunch.
He felt good as he ate.
"…"
Yang Liu-er gritted her teeth.
She was very angry.
It was true.
She was seriously doubting what kind of big shot she had hired! Therefore, the lady stopped breaking through and stared at Lu Ming like a tiger eyeing its prey.
Lu Ming looked up and the two of them glanced at each other.
→ _ → ← _ ←
Alright.
Lu Ming compromised.
Considering that he had to recruit this lady to the Sword Card Master Association in the future, Lu Ming reluctantly put down the watermelon that was obviously transported from the sea …
"I'll go and check the surroundings."
Lu Ming got up.
Snort!
Yang Liu-er then had a peace of mind to break through.
Buzz —
Lu Ming left Xiao-Xiaojian by the lady's side to protect her.
He then began to wander around the room. He had no choice. Whenever he slacked off, Yang Liu-er would glare at him. He felt as if he was being supervised.
Since he said that he would protect her, he could not bully her, right?
However, as a bodyguard …
Lu Ming had never done such a thing before!
At this point in time, what should he look for?
Oh.
Right.
He should check to see if anyone was lying in ambush!
Hence …
Lu Ming walked and stopped in the room. Occasionally, he would open a cabinet to check if anyone was lying in ambush. Until he opened a cabinet in the closet …
Well …
Lu Ming closed it silently.
Shush!
Yang Liu-er's aura that was in the midst of breaking through suddenly stopped.
Obviously …
She noticed Lu Ming's gaze.
Cough, cough.
Lu Ming felt a little embarrassed. "I didn't know it was an underwear inside … Don't worry, I'm just checking."
With that …
Under the covetous gaze of Miss Yang, Lu Ming changed his direction and opened another closet. There was a row of strange-looking clothes with many missing pieces of cloth hanging inside.
Well …
Lu Ming was silent.
Yang Liu-er's face turned ghastly pale.
This person …
She was so infuriating!!!
"Sorry."
Lu Ming was about to close it.
However …
When he was about to close it, he was shocked to discover that in the corner of the clothes, there was a piece of clothing that he had seen before. It was exactly the same as the one that Lu Ming had worn previously!
Eh?
Lu Ming was surprised. "It's actually the same as the one that I wore?"
Shush!
There was suddenly silence in the room.
Yang Liu-er's gaze toward Lu Ming gradually turned perverted.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Oh.
Crap.
Just now …
He seemed to have accidentally said something …
Bam.
Lu Ming closed the cabinet, walked to the door, and looked up at the sky.
Forget it.
To hell with checking!
Yang Liu-er was speechless.
At this moment …
There was total silence in the room.
After experiencing this, Yang Liu-er had an odd expression. No one knew what she was thinking about. She did not dare to urge Lu Ming to check and simply continued to break through.
The effect of the Seven Color Tea was top-notch!
In just half an hour, Yang Liu-er had reached the peak!
Bang!
Energy surged.
Yang Liu-er was only one step away from Six Stars.
"Soon."
Lu Ming squinted his eyes.
He knew it.
There was no Assassin! The sense of security …
Shush!
There was a sudden flash of murderous intent in the dark night. A cold beam flashed across the void and suddenly dashed into the room. The powerful aura sent chills down one's spine.
This was …
A peak Six Stars Assassin!!!
Damn!
Really?!
"Xiao-Xiaojian!"
Lu Ming hollered.
Bang!
There was a deafening sound.
The Original Card returned instantly, blocking the assassination route.
"Who's that?!"
Lu Ming said coldly.
Opposite him.
There was only endless coldness.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Cold lights flashed.
A man in black emerged from the darkness and attacked Lu Ming without any hesitation. The powerful combat ability of a peak Six Stars was unleashed and every slash was fatal!
It was here.
Lu Ming instinctively wanted to cast the card, however …
It would not work!
He needed time to cast the card!
And unfortunately …
This was an Assassin!
A peak Six Stars Assassin!
Faced with an enemy of this level, Lu Ming's card would not be effective in time. Once a card could not kill the enemy, he would be killed on the spot!
Escape?
It was impossible!
His mission this time was to protect Yang Liu-er!
Moonlight Card!
Lu Ming strengthened himself and the Original Card instantly!
Since he did not have time to use the Delay Card, he would fight with brute force!
Buzz —
He entered the state of becoming one with the sword and unleashed his most powerful combat ability. He replaced the sword with the card and fought with the enemy with swordplay!
Peak Six Stars?
Snort!
Lu Ming, who had already broken through to advanced five-star, was not afraid at all!
With the strengthening of the Moonlight Card + becoming one with the sword + one hundred thousand points of energy, Lu Ming relied on his swordplay to come to a draw with this peak Six Stars Assassin!
Of course.
This was almost Lu Ming's limit!
"Come on!"
Lu Ming did not hide his aura at all.
Bang!
Bang!
Every aura burst forth.
He believed that Yang Liu-er's father would arrive very soon. It would be advantageous for him to drag this battle on. As long as he waited for his father to arrive …
However …
At this moment.
Two men in black appeared in the darkness.
"Oh no!"
Lu Ming's expression changed drastically.
Three of them?!
Three peak Six Stars Assassins?!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Cold lights flashed.
At this moment, there were three black shadows. Their auras came from the same source. The three of them locked onto Lu Ming from different directions with a strong murderous intent.
Buzz —
Their powers intertwined in the air.
It was like a heavenly net.
Bang!
Terrifying pressure landed on him.
Lu Ming felt a sense of majesty that came from the bottom of his heart.
Damn it!
The powers of these three people were exactly the same. They could even enhance each other!
Lightning Slash!
Lu Ming activated his most powerful move without any hesitation. However, the Original Card merely left a trace of blood on the three of them when it swept past them.
It was very light.
It was very faint.
The enhanced powers of the trio had been greatly weakened!
Pfft!
Lu Ming vomited blood instead.
Fight …
He could not beat them!
It was already difficult for him to fight one on one. Right now, it was one against three Assassins who had great teamwork. How could he possibly beat them?!
The Yang family …
Was the infighting in their family that fierce?!
"Phew —"
Lu Ming took a deep breath.
He had no chance of winning when he was surrounded by three men in black!
Well …
He could only flip the table!
As for whether Yang Liu-er could break through successfully …
Only God knew!
However …
If he flipped the table …
There was only one way — to detonate the vocation core!
His heart ached at the thought of it.
The vocation core that he had just broken through at the Card Creators Association a few days ago …
His heart ached if he self-destructed!
This was energy!
A massive amount of energy …
He might not be able to find a sucker like the Card Creators Association in the future!
Sigh.
He bore with the pain.
Lu Ming mobilized his thoughts, planning to detonate all of them. With such a huge commotion, he believed that Yang Liu-er's father would rush over very soon.
However …
Just at this moment, Lu Ming found another card.
Well …
That new card.
Shush!
Lu Ming threw it out casually. Regardless of whether it was a delay bomb or meltdown parts, he just had to throw it out first. It would work eventually …
However …
To Lu Ming's surprise …
Just as he threw the card, a flash of light flashed in the air.
Buzz —
The card dissipated.
A strange force suddenly landed on the men in black.
At that moment …
Just at that second.
That strange force suddenly shrouded the three men in black, locking the vocation core in their bodies and freezing them in the air.
Afterward …
Lu Ming could clearly see that the vocation cores of the three men were glowing brightly.
Well …
There were three daggers.
Be it the aura, texture or appearance, they were exactly the same. Afterward, the strange aura connected the three vocation cores and in that instant …
Crash!
The three vocation cores detonated instantly!
Pfft!
The three men in black spat out blood and were sent flying.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Damn it! What was happening?!
He looked at the three men in black who were covered in blood and thought of the strange scene earlier. He was stunned for a moment before he realized what had happened.
Wait a minute.
Could this be the legendary Happy Frappe?!
…
