Sword Card Master Association.

It was only after receiving the seven-star marking that his sister gave him that Lu Ming had this incredible thought. But on second thought, he might have been thinking too much…

Although his sister had been taking care of him all along, it was unnecessary…

“Yes.”

Lu Yan nodded indifferently, shooting a strange look at her brother. “If not, then why would I have gone?”

Lu Ming gasped as he slurped his Liangpi1

Damn!

It was indeed for this reason!!!

His sister was too powerful!

“Master!”

Xiaobai was angry, taking the Liangpi away.

That was annoying!

She knew that her master had starved for days, hence she prepared Liangpi. However, she did not expect that the first thing her master would do when he woke up was to slurp Liangpi…

And he did that in front of his elder sister!

He was too gross!

What if his elder sister misunderstood that it was she who had spoiled her master?

Well…

That could not happen!

She must show his elder sister that she was a qualified mistress of the house.

Humph!

He was not allowed to eat anymore.

She took the Liangpi away.

Lu Ming was speechless.

However…

He had yet to come to his senses.

Lu Yan…

She had done all this for him in silence?!

He understood everything!

He suddenly understood why his elder sister who obviously had no interest in the World of Darkness and Shadows would enter it and why she did not do anything despite receiving his message!

It turned out that…

His sister was waiting for a chance to kill a seven-star!

And she did everything…

for him!

Lu Ming sensed inexplicably warm feelings in his heart.

She was after all his elder sister…

“Thank you.”

Lu Ming was touched.

“There is no need for that. We are one family.”

Lu Yan’s gaze was soft and gentle.

It was only with her brother that she had that soft and gentle gaze.

“Yes,” Xiaobai agreed.

It was natural for family members to help each other.

Lu Yan was speechless.

She cast Xiaobai weird glances. She felt that this young girl seemed to behave like the mistress of the house… Was this a good thing?

Forget it.

Lu Yan sighed.

She could help him with his talents and fighting capability, as for matters of the heart…

It was better not to elaborate further.

“Xiaobai is still young. Be safe.”

Lu Yan patted her brother on the shoulder.

Lu Ming was dumbstruck.

Why does this sound weird?

“Sister, please have some water.”

Xiaobai brought hot water with her. Her face was blushing, as she hurried to leave. Lu Ming swept his suspicious gaze over her. Something must have happened while he was away…

Forget it.

Lu Ming was too lazy to think about this.

Right now, the most important thing on his mind was his sister’s capability!

When Lu Ming swept his gaze over her, he realized that his sister was still a four-star!

“Sister, haven’t you recovered yet?”

Lu Ming found it odd.

“Oh, I self-destructed in the World of Darkness and Shadows.”

Lu Ming was speechless.

Self-destruction…

Again?

Lu Ming was between laughter and tears.

Buzz—

Faint blue lights flashed.

Lu Yan’s Sword Embryo appeared silently in front of Lu Ming. It rubbed against Lu Ming, looking aggrieved.

Lu Ming was speechless.

Oh.

It was no wonder the blue lights were as powerful as a six-star…

Poor fellow.

Cough.

Lu Yan retracted her Sword Embryo, feeling somewhat embarrassed, as she explained further. “This was a slightly special situation. I self-destructed with the Sword Embryo. It would be more powerful that way. It is the only way to destroy the world and to return to reality.”

Lu Ming was speechless, his elder sister…

“Sister, you shouldn’t keep self-destructing.”

Lu Ming sighed.

“It’s nothing.”

Lu Yan waved her hands.

She knew what she was doing.

She had asked people to test her brother’s talents more than once. But no matter how she tested them, his limits would not go beyond seven-star. It was to the extent that it would be more difficult for him than for the average person to reach a five-star or six-star! Therefore, she did not object to it when Lu Ming learned to create cards or stay in Qing Ming City.

She did not expect that Lu Ming used his own method to carve out a path for himself in Qing Ming City.

A… magical path!

He had transformed from a weak Card Creator to having combat capabilities that were close to a six-star!

At this rate, one day Lu Ming would reach peak six-star. Therefore, she had a new idea. Why didn’t she give her brother a chance?

So what if he was not destined to be a seven-star?

It was okay. They could create their own destiny!

And the appearance of the World of Darkness and Shadows was a very good opportunity. Therefore, she entered the world and obtained the seven-star marking!

“Sister…”

Lu Ming was touched.

“Master, Sister, time to eat.”

Xiaobai waved her hands, placing the dishes that she prepared on the table.

Lu Ming took a glance.

Well…

There was no Liangpi.

“Sister, enjoy the meal.”

Xiaobai pretended not to see the expression in Lu Ming’s eyes and she scooped rice for Lu Yan obediently.

“Sister.”

Lu Ming suddenly thought of something and he had some doubts. “How did you do it?”

“With this.”

Lu Yan raised her hand.

In it, there was a row of sparkling core precious stones that shimmered.

These were the energy cores that she had collected in the World of Darkness and Shadows from killing the six-star shadow monsters. This was the main reason why she collected these cores!

Transmitting signals?

No.

What did it mean that they were able to transmit signals?

When the cores gathered together and unleashed their largest power, they would allow energy to pass through!!

Therefore…

He witnessed the scene where blue lights radiated!

“I see,” Lu Ming marveled.

There were all sorts of strange monsters in the World of Darkness and Shadows. He did not expect that they had this function! The most interesting thing was that the World of Darkness and Shadows did not ban this function!

Tsk tsk…

What a failure!

However…

Just then, a cold voice came from the sky.

“Haha.

“Of course they did not ban it!

“The monsters in the World of Darkness and Shadows are free to develop without any rules and they have random functions. No one would waste time to study whether the monsters could allow signals to get through or not!?

“No one studies them!

“There are many treasures in the World of Darkness and Shadows. No one will focus on a bunch of useless shadow monsters or to study their weak penetration power!?

“With the exception of this fool who helps her brother at all costs!”

Bang!

The Sword Card Master Association vibrated.

A terrifying aura landed, waking many people.

“Who is that?!”

Lu Ming’s expression changed drastically.

Damn it!

This aura…

It was seven-star and above. Could it be that the big shots from the World of Darkness and Shadows had chased them all the way there?

Buzz—

Right then, the figure appeared next to Lu Yan.

This was not looking good.

Lu Ming had no time to think and he rushed to his sister’s side, wanting to protect his sister who just reached four-star. However, he felt a powerful force…

Biu!

He was sent flying away by a surprising strong force.

Crash!

There was a deafening sound.

Lu Ming hung upside down on the wall.

He turned back to check. The figure next to Lu Yan had materialized. The person had a voluptuous figure. She was none other than Senior Qiu Shuyi!

Oh, whatever had sent him flying away…

Well…

Lu Ming peered at her and lowered his head.

He felt ashamed of himself.

He felt ashamed of himself.

“Humph!”

Qiu Shuyi sneered.

She rested her gaze on Lu Yan and her expression turned grave.

This aura…

Well…

She has self-destructed again!!!

“Is this the local specialty that you said you would be bringing?”

Qiu Shuyi was expressionless.

To hell with local specialties!

Was her local specialty the life and death marking of a seven-star cultivator?!

“Master.”

Lu Yan felt a little embarrassed.

She was afraid that her master would not agree, hence she did not say anything.

“You have grown up, hence there is no need to obey your master, is that so?”

Qiu Shuyi was very calm. “Do you still remember what I said?”

“What did you say before?”

Lu Yan tried to remember and her countenance changed.

Shush!

Lights and shadows circulated.

She actually turned around and tried to escape.

“Don’t you think of escaping!”

Qiu Shuyi sneered coldly.

Bang!

Lights and shadow flashed.

Lu Ming was speechless.

Xiaobai was silent.

W-what was this?!

The young and old looked at each other and they were at a loss.

“Don’t look!”

Xiaobai came to her senses. She raised her tender hands to cover Lu Ming’s eyes, while she sneaked a peek at Lu Yan’s figure…

Eh?

She had a surprisingly good figure.

“Qiu Shuyi!”

Lu Yan was ashamed and resentful.

“Can you be reasonable?”

Qiu Shuyi simply ignored her.

Snort!

Did this young girl really think that she would not beat her?!

Bam! Bam!

Lu Ming was speechless.

It did not seem appropriate to do that on his bed.

Cough.

Besides, his sister suffered because of him.

Therefore…

“Well…”

Lu Ming did not know what he could do to help, but he still said gingerly, “Senior? You can’t blame my sister for this. It is my fault, why not…”

Shush!

Qiu Shuyi swept her cold gaze over him. “Stop your nonsense, otherwise, believe it or not, I will strip your pants as well?”

Lu Ming was speechless.

He instinctively had a tight grip on his pants.

Cough.

The senior was too domineering!

“I won’t allow you to take off my master’s pants!”

Xiaobai suddenly stood in front of Lu Ming, looking very fierce.

“So what if I take them off?”

Qiu Shuyi sneered.

How dare a twelve-year-old young lady lecture her?

“I forbid it!”

Xiaobai said in a very serious manner.

With that, she pulled out her Original Card.

She did not know what had happened. However, if the senior wanted to lecture her disciple, she should do it at home. This was the Sword Card Master Association. She would not allow her to lecture her master!

“This girl…”

Qiu Shuyi went mad.

She merely made a casual statement, but the young girl actually took it seriously. Now, she wanted to know how a twelve-year-old girl would hold her off?

Shush!

She was getting ready to make a move.

“Qiu Shuyi!”

Lu Yan’s voice could be heard. “Don’t mess around.”

“I…”

Qiu Shuyi turned back, looking at Lu Yan who had gotten up and back at Xiaobai and Lu Ming. She sneered and left.

“Senior!”

Lu Ming wanted to stop her but did not make it in time.

“Don’t worry.”

Lu Yan shook her head. “I will go after her.”

“Will you be okay?”

Lu Ming was a little worried.

They were indeed in the wrong. Senior Qiu Shuyi did this for his sister. Besides, she saved their lives once.

“It’s okay.”

Lu Yan shook her head slightly.

Shush!

Lights and shadows flashed.

Lu Yan left the Sword Card Master Association and chased after her. Sure enough, Qiu Shuyi was still in the vicinity.

“Are you still angry?” Lu Yan asked.

Snort!

Qiu Shuyi turned around.

Lu Yan walked forward, but Qiu Shuyi turned her head to another side.

“Why can’t you behave like a senior?”

Lu Yan sighed.

“I have been behaving like a senior!”

Qiu Shuyi suddenly turned her head, her eyes were red.

“Master, you…”

Lu Yan was at a loss.

“What’s wrong with me?!”

Qiu Shuyi sounded aggrieved. “I know that I am not qualified to be your master. I know that I am only a few years older than you. I also know that I don’t have much to teach you! But I have taught you everything that I know. I am working hard on my cultivation as well! I am an eight-star now…”

“No, Master, well…”

Lu Yan was rendered speechless.

S-something did not seem quite right.

“You are always disobedient! You always disobey me! I just didn’t want you to self-destruct again! In the end, all of you defended each other while I seemed like a bad person! W-what have I done wrong?”

“Oo… Oo…”

Qiu Shuyi had an emotional breakdown.

“Well, Master…”

Lu Yan sighed. “Your snot is dripping.”

“Oo… Oo… Ah?”

Qiu Shuyi paused briefly, used her power to wipe her snot before she continued to cry more loudly. “Oo… Oo… I know that you despise me!

“Oo… Oo… This is my first time as a master. I don’t have any experience! I-I had to search for instructions online!

“I have already tried my best!”

Qiu Shuyi felt very aggrieved.

Lu Yan was speechless.

For unknown reason, she suddenly smiled at the tear-stained face of her beautiful Master.

“Look, you are laughing at me…”

Qiu Shuyi was aggrieved.

However…

At this moment.

Lu Yan suddenly leaned closer.

“Huh?”

Qiu Shuyi stiffened and she stopped crying. She widened her eyes, staring at her disciple right before her eyes, her face blushing.

Time seemed to have stood still at this moment!

After a long time…

“Are you still crying?”

Lu Yan asked calmly.

“I wasn’t crying,” Qiu Shuyi said softly.

“Then let’s go.”

Lu Yan stretched. “We have been away for so long. It’s time to go back.”

“Oh.”

Qiu Shuyi echoed her.

She was confused. S-something did not seem to feel right. She took a long time before she came to her senses, sorting out her thoughts.

“You…”

“That was a courtesy.”

“Oh.”

…

“Will you self-destruct again?”

“No.”

“Really?”

“Yes.”

“I will cry if you self-destruct again.”

“Master, you can do better than that.”

“I don’t care!”
