Chapter 470: Welcome back

"How didst thee doth it!?"

The flashback ended. Time returned to the moment Earthbound Yaksha uttered in surprise.

Earthbound Yaksha obviously never expected that the seemingly insignificant Daoist would be able to produce a trump card of 'Telepathic Relay' that could reverse the dire situation. Therefore, there was no way it could guess that the ten minutes it had bestowed on them would result in so many complicated changes.

The plan Speechless designed played out without a fault. It could even be said that it was carried out even more smoothly than he had predicted.

Sunless had perfectly finished the most critical and most difficult mission. Pulp Farmer did not let down their hard work by locating the formation core in such a short amount of time.

Therefore, all that was left was the final step!

Speechless looked up at the sky and revealed a smile. The thousand paper cranes were flying towards the same spot. Everything was progressing smoothly.

"How didst thee doth it!?"

Earthbound Yaksha inquired once again coldly.

Speechless glanced at it and scoffed before ignoring it.

He obviously would not be as stupid as Shadow Wraith to tell their secrets to the enemy. Furthermore, the machination that spanned ten minutes could not be fully described in a few words. A particular honest author who never padded words had spent about six thousand characters to barely explain the situation.

Furthermore, Field Marshal Awesomo had perfectly showcased what it meant by 'antagonists die from their monolog'. He did not want to match him by adding a comedic scene of 'protagonists die from talking too much'.

"Hmph! Whatever. Regardless of how thee did it, all thee didst wast to findeth the formation core. If't be true all of thee believeth thee can destroy the formation core under our eyes, thee would beest too naive!

Earthbound Yaksha sneered. Even though they knew the location of the formation core, it did not mean that they could successfully destroy it.

Earthbound Yaksha glanced at Shadow Wraith, who was still frantically yelling 'impossible'. It deeply understood what it meant by 'you never fear having a god-like opponent, you only fear having a pig-like teammate'. It frowned and said furiously, "Shadow Wraith! Calm down! Only the formation core's location hast been exposed. The God Slaughtering Formation hast not been destroyed! Furthermore, so what if it beest true of its destruction? Our mission is only to killeth the bunch of trial-takers. Only the outcome matters, not the process!"

"Oh…Oh. Heh heh…right, you are right. Kill them all! Kill them all! All that needs to be done is to kill them all!" Shadow Wraith stopped its desolate screams. As it was excessively afraid of that Excellency's torment, its voice was even trembling. But because it was horrified, its trembling emotions sounded like it was in hysterical madness.

"Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill…."

The sinister voice blabbered on constantly from the shadow's head that had its throat clenched. Suddenly, Shadow Wraith that adhered to the ground stood up. It was like black sludge that suddenly erected itself on the ground.

Suddenly, the pitch black sludge-like body expanded at a discernable rate. Instantly, it reached the height of several stories high.

Speechless' shadow hand that was clasping the neck of Shadow Wraith was instantly ruptured. With a frown, Speechless jumped away and quickly opened the distance.

"Kill! Kill! Kill! You shall all be wiped out!"

Dozens of thick black tentacles extended out from the massive sludge-like mass. They slammed the ground heavily as though it was crazy.

It looked like a giant octopus made of black sludge that was several stories tall. However, its tentacles were not limited to eight, but dozens. They were even constantly growing in length.

"If thee bethink that we as Level Lords doth not hast tricks up our sleeves to useth during times of danger, then thou art too naive."

Earthbound Yaksha's frame suddenly expanded several times in size. Its blackish-gray skin was suddenly covered in thick, scarlet lines. The aura it exuded was several times more terrifying.

"Thou hast shown excellence by escaping Shadow Shackles and findeth the formation core, thou hast far exceeded mine own expectations. But all of this shalt come to an end. Wraith and I shall not giveth thee any chances in our forbidden state!"

Just like how most major BOSS battles had an enraged mode when they were low in health, Earthbound Yaksha and Shadow Wraith would naturally procure a forbidden strength that would come at a particular price when they were in a dire situation!

"Indeed…"

However, Speechless smiled.

"Oh?"

Earthbound Yaksha had a sense of foreboding.

"Since none of you have used your full strength, This Emperor will obviously not use all his trump cards. Sorry, This Emperor still has the final trump card!"

As Speechless said that, he looked up towards the sky.

It was unknown when the fluttering paper cranes in the sky had gathered at a common point. They were orderly lined up, forming a clear outline.

From afar, it was as if a gigantic 'arrowhead' drawn in the sky!

And the 'arrowhead' was pointed towards a particular position on the ground!

"The formation core is there. Everything is ready. Then, our final trump card, I beg of you!"

Speechless cupped his hands around his mouth as he took a deep breath before shouting with all his might!

"Mu Yuesheng!"

A figure walked out from beside Pulp Farmer's figure.

That girl that had been constantly hiding in a blind spot, to the point of her name not appearing much in this arc, had entered the eyes of everyone at that very moment.

She wore a simple short-sleeved shirt and a thin jacket meant for summer. Coupled with her gray pleated skirt, there was nothing about her clothes that highlighted her.

She had cut a mop of brown short hair that reached her shoulders. With her hair cut, the gentleness of a young girl had been trimmed away.

She had a pair of brown eyes. Although they were the beautiful color of a girl's, they were filled with the resolution of what a young boy would have.

Her name was Mu Yuesheng—a name that might have been forgotten if it was not mentioned again, a name that might have only appeared a few times, and a name that might not affect the story in any way even if it disappeared.

Compared to excellent girls like Dawn Li, Sunless Ye, and Mu Lengxi, her beauty was ranked the last when put on the same stage with them. She was similarly the weakest and lacked any sense of presence.

But!

But this brown, short-haired girl that had been neglected was someone that everyone needed to see at that moment!

And after that moment, everyone would remember her!

Because, at that moment, she was the protagonist!

Because, in this story arc of 'saving Shi Xiaobai', she was in true essence—the last trump card!

…

"What? The last trump card? Brother Speechless…you must be joking, right!?"

"Hey, do you think it's time to pull a joke? Yuesheng, don't tell me you don't believe your brother?"

"Well, it's not like I don't believe you…But…I don't believe myself…Compared to the rest of you, I'm just too weak. Trump card…that's impossible, right?"

"Pui! You are considered too weak? Heavens, if we are talking about pure long-distance offensive strength, Shi Xiaobai and I are left in the dust by you, alright!?"

"Ah…don't joke! This kind of joke…is not funny at all…My longest distance offensive technique, 'Extreme Electro-optical Beam' only has a kilometer damage range. It doesn't even reach the standard as a long-distance attack."

"Erh…so…you haven't realized the existence of 'that move'…"

"That move?"

"Well, years ago, after I knew about the situation with your superpower, I thought of 'that move' instantaneously. I never expected you to not realize it up to today…"

"Eh? "Years ago?"

"Man, as I was a bit worried, I once investigated your situation three years ago."

"Is that so…"

"Are you angry?"

"Not really, just a bit…Forget it. Why don't you tell me about 'that move'? What is 'that move' that I have not realized?"

"Alright, I'm not sure if you have heard of a military weapon with the ability to do tremendous damage known as 'electromagnetic guns'?"

"Electromagnetic guns? Haven't heard of it…"

"Is that so? Then it looks like I need to explain from basic principles. Listen carefully."

"Yea, I'm listening."

"Electromagnetic guns are kinetic weapons of mass destruction that shoot projectiles powered by electromagnetism. It was researched by the military a long time ago and it is still being refined up till today. It mainly has four components—a power source, a high-frequency pulse, an accelerating armature, and a projectile. As for your superpower, 'Electromagnetic Embodiment', it can replicate the first three components. You can use a metallic object as the projectile to be shot out. It will closely replicate the effects of an electromagnetic gun. The main point of this move is how to use 'Electromagnetic Embodiment' to replicate the power source of the electromagnetic gun, the high-frequency pulse, and the accelerator armature. I'll tell you in detail the theory behind it. Your 'Electromagnetic Embodiment' is able to naturally produce electricity, so any part of your body can become a power source. And as long as you figure out a way to reduce the time needed to produce an electric pulse, it would not be difficult to produce a high-frequency pulse. So the most critical part is to emulate the accelerating armature. The current electromagnetic guns can be subdivided into different types based on the accelerating armature such as coilguns, railguns, electrothermal guns, and reconnection guns. However, their underlying theory is about using the Lorentz force from magnetic fields to generate kinetic energy and accelerate the projectile. Therefore…"

"Wait…Wait a moment! I didn't understand from the point of the accelerating armature. Things like coilguns, railguns, and… Uh, can you repeat those parts again and say it slowly?"

"Yea, no problem. The remaining time is all yours. I can repeat it as many times as you want. You are our final trump card!"

"Ah! Final trump card? That doesn't sound realistic. Can I…really do it? To learn such a powerful technique in a short amount of time from theory, can I…really do it?"

"You can do it. I believe in you."

"You believe in me?"

"That's right. I remember years ago when you left the Mu family. You tugged at my hand and said, 'Even if I leave this place, I'm still me. I'm still that Mu Yuesheng who will never admit defeat. When we meet again in the future, I will still not change. Well, it should be said that I will become even more outstanding. So, don't argue with the adults for me any further. Believe me. I'm fine…'"

"Ahhh! Don't continue. I don't know the person who said those words!"

"Haha, you are still no different from when you were young. Indeed, nothing has changed. You are still…"

"Urgh…"

"Sorry, the final trump card represents immense pressure, but I still chose to place it on you because I know that you can shoulder it… That's because from a very, very long time ago, you have always, always made me look up to you. You are absolutely the resolute Mu Yuesheng, who will never admit defeat!"

"Bro…"

"Therefore, become the trump card that makes everyone sit up and take notice. My beloved sister!"

"Not a sister, a cousin."

"Hey, is that important?"

"Well, I will become the trump card, my willful…cousin."

…

…

"Trump card…"

Mu Yuesheng muttered to herself. She took out a coin from her shirt's pocket. It was an ordinary coin but it was in no way ordinary.

That was because a black-haired youth who had placed the coin into her palm had once said in a very serious tone—"This is no ordinary coin, but a Divine Coin!"

A Divine Coin could also be known as a 'Coin of God'.

If this world truly had a 'god', then wasn't the youth that had brought her all the way from the third level to this point, using a strange massage technique to change her Mind Expanse, to the point of changing her destiny, like the existence of a 'god' to her?

In that case, the coin he 'rewarded' her was truly a coin of God.

And now, that adorable and respectable 'god' that she felt lifelong gratitude towards was trapped in a terrifying world known as the 'God Slaughtering Formation'. She had become the last trump card to rescue him. She held the strength to save him.

Then, what…was there for her to hesitate?

Yes, there was no need for hesitation!

"I am the trump card!"

Mu Yuesheng took a step forward and turning to her side, she stretched out her right arm. She aimed at a spot far into the distance where numerous paper cranes, which had formed an 'arrow head', pointed at.

The Divine Coin rested silently in between her fingers. It was stuck close beside a bent thumb, just like an explosive blast that was about to burst off.

Icy-blue electric bolts sizzled as they twirled around that extended white arm. They were testy as they leaped around in an increasingly intense fashion.

"All the best."

This was the voice of Pulp Farmer, who was standing not far from her.

However, Mu Yuesheng knew that standing on this piece of land were all her partners that were working hard towards the same goal. They were definitely shouting the same words in their heart.

The burden she bore was not only to be the 'last trump card', but also their hopes and hard work.

This was a very, very heavy pressure.

But no matter how heavy it was, she would straighten her back.

Because she was the strong and firm Mu Yuesheng!

You need an electric source?

Then use all the electric charges in my body!

The icy-blue electric bolts that were swirling around her arm began to suddenly jump around crazily like incessant thunderclaps within the clouds.

You need a high-speed pulse?

Ah, even if my fingers are maimed, I would compress that instant to its shortest moment!

Her thumb that was placed above her index finger pressed down forcefully, leaving a deep impression in her index finger. Then, at the moment the electric bolts surged most intensely, her thumb flicked at the coin in between her two fingers at the fastest possible speed!

You need an accelerating armature?

Magnetic flux, Lorentz force, kinetic acceleration…Even such a complicated process has been memorized by me. The hardworking me will work even harder. So…succeed! Please!

As the bolts jumped, the Divine Coin was deployed!

So…

"Please come back! Shi Xiaobai!"

It was unknown who it was, which of them, or how many of them had the same scream at the same moment.

"Boom!"

The coin that acted as a projectile produced by the 'electromagnetic gun' was too fast. It was so fast that its trajectory could not be seen. And because of its speed, everyone had already seen its destination in an instant.

Just like the explosion of a mortar shot, the piece of land where the paper cranes were pointing at exploded, sending dust flying into the sky. Even the paper cranes flew haphazardly from fright.

"Did it succeed?"

This was the question everyone was concerned about.

"Gulp…"

Shadow Wraith nervously gulped a nonexistent mouthful of saliva.

Suddenly, golden beams of light shot out from the desolate lands into the sky. The golden lights fused together, turning into a resplendent golden surface.

If one looked from high up, one would realize that the golden light formed a seemingly complicated pattern that resembled a six-pointed star but was even more complex in every other way.

"No, no, no, no!"

Shadow Wraith once again screamed hysterically.

And while it screamed, the golden surface suddenly disintegrated!

"The God Slaughtering Formation hast been broken." Earthbound Yaksha sighed helplessly.

While it sighed, a golden pillar of light descended from the sky like a waterfall. It crashed into the basin, right in the middle of the shattered formation pattern.

In the dazzling golden pillar of light, there were two blurry figures that could be faintly seen.

"Shi Xiaobai…"

Although the golden light blanketed the two figures, preventing one from clearly seeing them, from one of the figure's height, there was no doubt that it was that familiar youth they knew.

"Haha, he's indeed alive. This Emperor knew that the bastard wouldn't die!" Speechless laughed out loud.

"Hey, Benefactor Shi Xiaobai, This Penniless Priest said that your glabella was dark and that it was an ominous portent. You refused to believe but now, didn't you need This Penniless Priest to help you tide through this calamity?" Liu Yu rubbed his eyes.

"Hai, Brother Shi Xiaobai, I believe that there is a need for us to explore in depth the effective usage of the thousand paper cranes to posture." Pulp Farmer secretly ordered the thousand paper cranes in the sky to form a huge line of text, 'Shi Xiaobai, I want to learn to posture'. The paper cranes were in a fluster as they indicated that it was too difficult. These Subjects can't do it!

"Boss Shi Xiaobai…" The most atypical Feng Yuanlin was at that instant quiet like an adonis.

"Shi Xiaobai!" Mu Yuesheng placed her right hand with the completely swollen thumb behind her. She raised her left hand and danced as she cheered for the 'god' she looked up to.

Mu Lengxi, who could not speak or even let out a sob, did not cry. Her eyes were squinted as she smiled sweetly.

They did not know what sort of dangers he had encountered in another world.

He did not know what hard work they had put in, in order to save him.

But at the instant of them meeting again, no matter how woeful the experience, all of them felt a sense of warmth.

Sunless stared intently at the familiar figure that could be faintly seen in the golden light.

Her tensed face finally softened.

She raised her delicate hand to comb through the hair on her cheeks.

Her eyes were slightly red, as a warm smile beamed from the corners of her lips.

Ah, Shi Xiaobai, "Welcome back."
