Chapter 1847: I Can Do It

Chapter 1794: I Can Do It

At the most critical moment, the obnoxious fish leaped forward and blocked the middle-aged man’s attack, preventing it from striking Xi Qi. There was a bang, and both the fish and Xi Qi were sent flying into the ground. However, they were both fine and had only been pushed away.

More importantly, the attack had been negated.

The old man looked back and was surprised at what he saw, as he had not expected a little girl to block such an attack.

The middle-aged man landed on the ground and stared at the fish in disbelief. What had just happened? Had his attack been blocked by a fish?

“The pain’s killing me, you despicable two-legs! Kneel down to Lord Fish! You dared to touch Lord Fish’s noble body! You’ll be a slave for 10,000 years! 10,000 years!” the fish screamed as it flopped up and down on top of Xi Qi’s head.

As for Xi Qi, she rubbed her shoulder, as she had been slightly hurt when she had crashed into the hard stone.

The middle-aged man continued to stare at the fish. “How are you able to talk?”

The fish pointed a fin at the man. “Kneel to Lord Fish! Lord Fish might consider reducing your sentence as a slave by a month! Lord Fish is furious that anyone dared to touch his noble body! The more I think about it, the angrier I’m getting! No, Lord Fish will enslave you for a million years! No, 10 million years! Kneel down before Lord Fish!”

Further back, the old man sucked in a cold breath as he stared at Xi Qi for a moment. After that, the old man fled without another glance behind.

The middle-aged man gave a derisive snort. He had already intended to chase down the old man regardless of what happened with Xi Qi. “You can’t escape today. You’re going to die.”

The old man gritted his teeth. “This old man no longer has any qualms with you, so why are you intent on killing us both?”

“This is the end of your life.” The middle-aged man once again began to go through the movements of the battle technique that he had learned from the stone. His hand thrust forward and pierced the void to land on the old man’s back, but the old man had already pulled out his shield. However, his earlier suspicion was proven correct; the shield was not able to withstand a second attack. The palm pierced through the old man’s body, and blood splattered on the shattered stones as the old man fell to the ground.

The middle-aged man glanced over, but it was clear the old man was already at death’s door. Then, he turned back to Xi Qi and looked down at her. “Little girl, what’s the deal with your fish?”

Xi Qi’s had gone pale, and her fingers were touching her cosmic ring. She had made her decision to fight.

“You two-legged beast, didn’t you hear Lord Fish’s command to kneel? I’ll warn you that Lord Fish is looking for his younger brother to come out and kill you! Little Bai, Little Wang, Little Lu, where are you? Get over here and kill this two-legs for Lord Fish!” The fish continued screaming as it jumped up and down.

Xi Qi’s face showed her embarrassment at this moment.

A cold glint appeared in the middle-aged man’s eyes. “Absurd.”

While he spoke, he casually swung a hand forward, intending to eliminate Xi Qi. However, another person suddenly appeared in front of the man and caught his hand. The man found himself unable to move his hand at all.

The middle-aged man was terrified, and he stared at the young man who had appeared in front of him so suddenly. When had this youth shown up?

The middle-aged man let out a scream as his arm was torn off, and he roared, “Release me!”

An imprint appeared behind the man as his remaining hand used the battle technique that he had learned from the stone, but this attack was also easily caught.

“It’s an impressive battle technique, but unfortunately for you, it’s useless against me,” the young man said as he tossed the middle-aged man away as though disposing of some trash. The young man then turned his focus to Xi Qi. “This is quite the coincidence.”

Xi Qi stared blankly at the young man as she joyfully cried out, “Big- Big Brother Lu!”

Naturally, Lu Yin was the person who had appeared. He had made his move the moment he had seen the middle-aged man about to attack Xi Qi. Lu Yin had used the Ce Secret Art to move in front of the middle-aged man and block his attack.

“Huh? You’re a very familiar two-legs. Are you here to pay homage to Lord Fish? Hurry up and kneel! Lord Fish will grant you an opportunity, and as long as you agree to serve Lord Fish, Lord Fish will teach you invincible battle techniques! This one has already been with Lord Fish for a long time, but Lord Fish hasn’t taught her anything. Hurry up! Lord Fish feels that you’re very promising!” the fish said while flapping its fins about.

Xi Qi could do nothing about the fish. It was about to smash her head, but she had already become used to such treatment. She no longer even worried about things like concussions.

Lu Yin stared at the arrogant fish. This thing had such a nasty mouth. If Ku Wei were present, he could let the two fight each other for a long time. “What happened? Did you decide to come here too?”

Xi Qi nodded. “I was on my way to find a sourcebox when I happened to find one of Burial Garden’s gates, and this insisted on me coming in.”

She pointed to the fish on her head as she spoke.

Lu Yin laughed. “You’re quite obedient.”

Xi Qi pursed her lips and muttered, “If I don’t listen, its mouth will be the death of me.”

“Skilled two-legs, Lord Fish is speaking to you! Hurry up and kneel to Lord Fish, and Lord Fish will grant you an opportunity!” The fish was clearly excited and thrilled to see Lu Yin.

Lu Yin had no intention of paying even the slightest bit of attention to the fish. A little ways behind them, the middle-aged man who had been tossed aside was staring at Lu Yin. He had finally remembered who this youth was. “It’s you, the leader of the Great Eastern Alliance!”

Lu Yin turned around to look at the man. “That’s me.”

The man grew terrified. “I’ve learned my lesson today! I’ll excuse myself now!”

He turned to flee.

Lu Yin gently waved a hand out, and the wind that he stirred up pierced a hole through the man’s neck. The middle-aged man had not expected Lu Yin to actually kill him, and he clutched at his neck as he slowly sank to the ground.

The man had looked resentful of Lu Yin’s interference, and Lu Yin had been reminded of a similar scene in the past that had resulted in Autumnfrost Qing and others trying to attack Frostwave Weave. Lu Yin did not want to leave such a threat around to bother him again. This person would definitely sneak around and stir up trouble if he did not have the strength for a direct fight. Such people were infuriating to deal with, and they could quickly create an irreversible situation.

There were too many similar conflicts in the universe, and Xi Qi was already used to seeing such things. She simply excitedly dragged Lu Yin back to the shattered stone she had seen earlier. “Brother Lu, look! This is the battle technique that that man used against you and me. He just learned it here, and his strength suddenly spiked.”

Lu Yin looked at the images demonstrating the battle technique’s method that had been engraved on the stone, but he just shook his head. “You go ahead and learn this. It’s useless for me.”

Xi Qi snorted, but she still turned around and started carefully studying the images.

The battle technique was one that was best suited for an Enlighter, but since Lu Yin’s combat strength matched that of Envoys, a technique of this level would not be able to help him much at all. However, it was completely different for Xi Qi.

After looking around Burial Garden for a bit, Lu Yin had to wonder if it really was that easy to come across a lucky chance. First there had been that human blood fruit, and now there was this impressive battle technique. Lu Yin was confident that he would come across even more opportunities as time passed. If this was how it was in Burial Garden, it would prove to be an incredible boon to humanity. If that was the case, why did Burial Garden remain closed? It had opened now, but why had it not opened earlier? Just because of the fiends? That seemed impossible.

It took only a short bit of time for Xi Qi to learn the battle technique, and she knew that it would benefit her greatly, and yet she was continuously mocked and ridiculed by the fish. “This is such a common technique! Lord Fish can teach you a hundred different techniques at this level, so why are you treating this like a treasure? This is humiliating! How can Lord Fish ever let Lord Fish’s friends know that his mount is so pathetic? What will become of Lord Fish’s self-esteem? Lord Fish wants to change mounts!”

“Thank you,” Xi Qi could not resist answering the fish’s last comment.

The fish kept slapping her with its fins. “What did you just say? Say that again! Believe it or not, do you have any idea how many people once dreamed of becoming Lord Fish’s mount? Back then, even though those people wanted the opportunity, Lord Fish refused! You should understand your situation and appreciate how to take advantage of it! Lord Fish…”

Lu Yin picked at his ears.

The fish’s eyes shifted over to Lu Yin, and it quickly continued to say, “Familiar two-legs, you must listen carefully to all that Lord Fish has to say! Lord Fish will teach you how to be human. Understand that back then…”

…

“Brother Lu, I’m sorry, but please take me with you,” Xi Qi said while blushing.

Lu Yin smiled. “I’m just wandering aimlessly, so let’s take a walk.”

Xi Qi offered some small thanks, as she understood that the situation was much different from the past. Lu Yin had climbed to a lofty position, and his strength was beyond her comprehension. Xi Qi could not help but think back to when they had first met and how similar their strength had been at that time. In fact, Xi Qi had been one of the Distinguished Five. But how could Xi Qi even compare to Lu Yin anymore? Not even the Ten Arbiters could keep up with his progress.

This person was truly impressive.

“Brother Lu, you- are you really a Boundless Advanced Lockbreaker?” Xi Qi asked.

“Yeah, two stars, but it’s really difficult to improve from there.”

“That’s amazing! I’m not even close to that. I actually haven’t improved very much,” Xi Qi said dejectedly.

The fish slapped her head. “Shame! Shame! Shame for Lord Fish! What two star Boundless Advanced Lockbreaker? With Lord Fish’s training, sooner or later you’ll be like an ancestor to all other Lockbreakers! Don’t embarrass Lord Fish. Come, shout with Lord Fish, ‘I can do it!’ Shout ‘I can do it!’”

Xi Qi mumbled, “I- I can do it.”

“Again! ‘I can do it!’”

“I can do it…”

“Listen to me. Shout again, louder! ‘I can do it!”

“I- I can do it!” Xi Qi shouted with all her might while fiercely blushing.

“‘I can do it!’”

“I can do it!”

…

Lu Yin was left speechless, but he finally understood why the despicable fish always remained with Xi Qi: she actually listened to it! Lu Yin considered the possibility of a fish mounted on top of his head and ordering him to shout “I can do it!” Just the thought of it gave him chills. This sort of behavior was on the same level as the mushroom head infatuation of the Shi Chi duo.

The two people continued to walk through the rubble of shattered stones for several more days before they finally saw a green field off in the distance, which put them in a much better mood.

Lu Yin had been worried about the feeling of being followed returning the entire time he had been in the region with the shattered stones, so he heaved a sigh of relief when they left the area.

“This looks very familiar,” the fish commented as it lifted its head up high and stared at the green region up ahead. It then turned to look back at the shattered stones. “Strange…”

Lu Yin said, “Do your best to remember. Maybe something will come back to you.”

The fish pointed a fin straight at Lu Yin. “Familiar two-legs, Lord Fish has always felt that there’s something very familiar about you… Come, let Lord Fish touch and pat you! Maybe Lord Fish can remember. Yes, maybe one of your ancestors was once Lord Fish’s mount!”

The fish’s words caused Xi Qi’s face to turn purple, and she covered the fish’s mouth as quickly as possible and nervously glanced over at Lu Yin, worried that he might have gotten upset.

Lu Yin pursed his lips. This nasty fish really should not even speak.

“I’m sorry, Brother Lu! I’m sorry!” All Xi Qi could do was repeatedly apologize.

Lu Yin just rolled his eyes.

Not long after they entered the green region, Lu Yin sensed someone approaching, and it was another acquaintance: Zhu San.

Zhu San was part of Millions City’s Zhu family. The family had once tried to take control of Millions City, and later, Millions City had joined the Great Eastern Alliance. That meant that the Zhu family had also joined the alliance.

The Zhu family was actually a branch of the Seven Courts’ Ce family, and Lu Yin had acquired his Ce Secret Art from the Zhu family’s blood with Mister Mu’s assistance.

Zhu San was not walking normally, and he instead looked like he was trying to dodge something, and he accidentally ran straight into Lu Yin’s domain that had been spread out. The moment Zhu San entered the domain, he felt like he had entered a swamp, and his entire body felt suppressed. He nervously looked around. “Might I ask which senior is here? This junior was disrespectful, but I ask Senior to show themselves.”

Lu Yin led Xi Qi towards Zhu San, and Zhu San soon saw the two people.

However, Zhu San reacted like he saw a ghost when he saw Lu Yin, and panic filled his eyes.

The Zhu family had been a part of Millions City, and they had agreed to join the Great Eastern Alliance. But when Lu Yin had been in the Perennial World, the Zhu family had moved from Millions City to the Neoverse and even cut off all contact and interactions with Millions City. At the moment, Zhu San felt like he was reuniting with a former master whom he had betrayed.
