Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting
Chapter 1525: Return and Inventory of Gains (7)Chapter 1525: Chapter 1525: Return and Inventory of Gains (7)
Before Qian Lei could finish speaking, the light and shadow in front of him began to change. This time, it wasn’t a back view, but a front view.
It was a young girl with a cold demeanor, white hair cascading down her back. Wasn’t it Lan Mengqin?
Immediately, the image of Lan Mengqin on the screen suddenly became alluring, her face initially cold, now temptingly coquettish. The image shook as her voice came through again, "Honey, you look so handsome. I really like you. Come here..." As she spoke, the image of Lan Mengqin reached for the belt of her long dress.
"Oh, come on..." Liu Feng hurriedly turned around instantly.
Lan Xuanyu kicked Qian Lei without hesitation, with a "bang," he sent the guy tumbling over.
Qian Lei spat out a mouthful of blood, his cultivation was interrupted, and the Soul Power within him instantly backfired.
Lan Xuanyu reached out to grab him, pulling his body up, infusing him with solid Dragon Power to stabilize his rebounding Soul Power.
He couldn’t refrain from intervening; he knew that interrupting Qian Lei’s cultivation was harmful to his body. But the problem was that if the Thought Manifestation continued, it wouldn’t just be a matter of harm. Lan Mengqin was already ready to draw out her Azure Ice Seal Godly Sword.
"Cough, cough. It hurts so much. Boss, what’s going on? Why did you interrupt my cultivation?" Qian Lei clutched his chest in pain. Although he was physically strong, being abruptly interrupted in cultivation was immensely painful.
Then he noticed the atmosphere in the room was somewhat peculiar, as everyone was looking at him with strange glances.
Bai Xiuxiu had already ran over to hold the infuriated Lan Mengqin, preventing her from going berserk. Lan Xuanyu also stood in front of Qian Lei, hastily saying, "Calm down, Mengqin, calm down first. You can’t completely blame him for this either. It’s the Artifact’s fault."
Qian Lei still couldn’t fathom, "What happened, boss? What’s going on?"
Lan Xuanyu smiled wryly, "You didn’t let me finish speaking before rushing to the Artifact fusion. This Eye of the God, it has side effects..."
He then explained the side effects of the Eye of the God. Listening to him, everyone was dumbfounded. And when Qian Lei heard Liu Feng, via sound transmission, quietly tell him the situation regarding the previous Thought Manifestation, he was struck speechless. No wonder Mengqin’s gaze at him was murderous. This, this was too embarrassing...
Liu Feng suddenly felt a sense of relief. He had indeed been envious seeing everyone have Artifacts while he had none, especially watching Qian Lei’s Spiritual Power break through to the divine consciousness level.
But this Eye of the God... such an Artifact, it’s better not to have it.
Qian Lei stared dumbfoundedly at Lan Xuanyu, "Boss, then this..."
Lan Xuanyu coughed and said, "Initially, I considered your strong mental fortitude, so I was going to ask you if you wanted this Artifact. Who knew you would fuse it before I could mention the side effects. Now it’s too late to regret. This Artifact won’t separate from your body unless you die."
"Then let him die." Lan Mengqin tried to rush over, but Bai Xiuxiu held her back, preventing any outburst.
Qian Lei looked at her, then at Yuanen Guangjun, whose face had turned ashen because she recognized the previously charming figure as herself, her mouth twitching slightly.
"Why are you guys lashing out? Aren’t I the victim here?" Qian Lei’s voice surprisingly returned to calmness.
"Hmm?" Both Yuanen Guangjun and Lan Mengqin were taken aback.
Qian Lei said with a glimmer, "Everyone has their little world inside. A sage once said. The human heart, it’s like an iceberg floating in the ocean. Above the water, basked in sunlight and visible to all, is the super-ego. It’s what transcends the self and wishes others to see. And between the waterline above and below is the ego. It’s the truer self. It’s the true self. But everyone harbors a dark side within, which is the part of the iceberg totally hidden beneath the water. That’s the id. Everyone’s id is the filthiest part, the part within us we don’t want others to know. And now, the Eye of the God is pretty much like exposing my inner id to you all."
"Search your conscience, whose id is pure and flawless? What you just saw, my praise for auntie’s figure, from another perspective, isn’t that simply an appreciation of beauty? My deepest id is merely appreciative, I never fantasized about doing anything. Furthermore, auntie is so beautiful, I can bet that among the Thirty-Three Skywing, many have fantasized about her. And I’m just appreciating, certainly higher than they ever did. Auntie is so beautiful, what’s wrong with looking?"
Upon his explanation, though Yuanen Guangjun’s face blushed, her earlier fury dissipated a bit. Yes! What teenager hasn’t harbored spring dreams? During adolescence, fantasizing about women, especially beautiful women they know, is perfectly normal.
Qian Lei turned to Lan Mengqin, speaking seriously, "Mengqin, you know about my love for you. So, if I really were to fantasize about that, in my heart, it could only be you, not anyone else. You see, auntie is beautiful, yet I only appreciate, without any excessive thoughts, right? All my oversized thoughts are directed at you. Because you will be my wife in the future! Of course, I hope to experience something with my beloved. I fantasize about you gently leaning against me one day, doing some shameless things, and in the future, we’d have a child. Isn’t this a normal fantasy for a man about his wife and the best thing ever?"
Lan Mengqin’s face flushed red from his words, but the guy looked so earnest, filled with deep affection, her earlier annoyance stemmed more from embarrassment and anger. Now, listening to him, it did seem to make sense.
"But, but in front of so many people..."
Qian Lei grimaced, "You can’t blame me! It’s that wretched Eye of the God, which exposed me here. That’s why I say, I’m the biggest victim here! Who would have thought an Artifact would have such a wicked sense of humor? I can feel it affecting me, it steals things from my heart. I will try to restrain it, as long as I don’t think of anything, it can’t steal anything."
Lan Xuanyu silently watched from the side, then quietly stepped back a few feet; he now truly believed no one suited the Eye of the God more than Qian Lei.
The crisis that was about to erupt was turned into Qian Lei declaring himself as the victim. His smooth-talking skills were truly admirable. This wasn’t just about having thick skin, there was quick wit there too. Impressive, my brother.
Bai Xiuxiu released her hold on Lan Mengqin, glaring at Qian Lei in exasperation but said, "What he says isn’t without reason. Hmm, let’s leave it at that."
"Yes, indeed. Who doesn’t have fantasies, I also think about what it would be like with Xiuxiu." To help out a brother, Lan Xuanyu even pulled himself into the mix.
Bai Xiuxiu blushed deeply, glancing at him with ambiguity, wondering what this scoundrel thought of her.
"What are you looking at?" Tang Yuge suddenly said irritably.
Unknown to everyone, Yuanen Huihui had awoken from cultivation and was sneaking glances at Tang Yuge, prompting her to kick him in annoyance.
This bit of joking made everyone burst into laughter.
But just then, the vertical eye on Qian Lei’s forehead suddenly rippled, a strand of golden light flowed out, transforming into a voice resonating in the air, very much resembling Qian Lei’s own voice.
"Lan Mengqin, this girl, just has a bit of a bad temper, too fierce."
The room instantly fell silent!
