Chapter 102: Who Didn’t You Go to Heaven?!

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

It was very late at night.

Xiaobai was already asleep.

“It has been an eventful night.”

Lu Ming sighed in his heart.

Tonight… was really amazing.

It was not only those powerful and strong cultivators but also the goldfish itself!

Shush!

Lu Ming opened his hands.

He had been pinching a piece of golden scale in his hands.

This was the real thing.

The goldfish gave it to him.

Lu Ming squeezed and bit it. It was actually real! This was amazing. The goldfish was purely formed by energy. Yet, it could also create a tangible item?

Lu Ming could feel its fascinating powers with his sense of perception.

This was…

Luck?

The timing and venue where it appeared were too precise!

Initially, Lu Ming thought that it had appeared unintentionally. But after thinking about it, this might be its ability!

Perhaps…

That fascinating ability predicted accurately that he could save it!

However, that intriguing and special ability brought it here…

In the end…

The rest was history.

Lu Ming did not know. He was just guessing.

He had heard of too many intriguing abilities in this fascinating world. Curses, elements and so on. Now, there is one more – Luck. Seemingly, this was nothing strange about it.

“Is this the halo of Luck?”

Lu Ming pondered deeply.

Goldfish…

No.

Perhaps he should call it a koi?

After contemplating, he put the piece of scale into his card bag in a serious manner.

At the Lunar Shadow legacy this time.

Perhaps…

This would bring him good luck.

Besides these…

He would remember today’s matter very clearly.

Especially—

That person called Zhou Yang!

“We will meet again.”

Lu Ming was very serious.

After all…

He was only a salted fish (Salted fish: Chinese Internet Slang for a boring and idle person with no ambitions.)

And salted fish bore deep grudges.

…

The next day.

Everyone then found out what happened.

“The Mysterious Goldfish Made Its Appearance!”

“In Whose Hands Will the Four-star Spirit Body Land?”

“A Mysterious and Powerful Figure Vanquished Four-star Cultivators and Rescued the Goldfish. He was Insurmountable.”

“The Cemetery is in Shambles. Who’s Fault is That?”

…

Massive news engulfed Qing Ming City. Once again, the city was lively and bustling.

“Did you hear it? Yesterday, that mysterious and powerful figure summoned the bulls.”

“Is it the Bull Demon King again?”

“I heard that it’s not the case. A powerful Summoner or Charmer attracted all the bulls within the vicinity and almost massacred everyone who was there!”

“Is it true? Gao Tianlang and Zhou Yang were also there.”

“How can it be false? Both Gao Tianlang and his younger sister were injured. I heard that someone saw him carrying his sister and rushing back late at night to treat her wounds.”

“Ss—”

“What about the goldfish?”

“I don’t know. It escaped. Someone tried to take videos of it secretly in the middle of the night but only discovered a ball of golden lights… They could not see anything at all.

…

Everyone was discussing this matter.

This could not be helped. Yesterday’s commotion was too big.

The matter could not be hidden at all!

“Who gave them the guts to do that?

Go and investigate!

Everyone who was involved yesterday… Fine them!

All the funds for rebuilding the cemetery and the compensation for those people’s psychological trauma, get them to fork out the money!”

The higher-ups of Qing Ming City were infuriated.

These four-star cultivators could just resolve the issue quietly in the suburbs. But they actually chased it into the city and caused such a huge mess. Weren’t they courting death?!

Of course.

Most importantly, the public cemetery had been destroyed due to their fights!

This was huge trouble.

According to sources…

Early in the morning, all the major departments were surrounded by people.

Did you know what was the most discussed topic in Qing Ming City today?

Bulls!

Cemetery!

“Oo… Oo… The offerings that I prepared for my mom was eaten by bulls.”

“That’s still okay. My grandfather’s burial mound was destroyed by those damn four-star cultivators!”

“Crap!”

“What’s so bad about all of this?”

“Damn. My grandpa’s ashes are gone!”

…

Everyone exploded in rage.

This was more terrifying than digging up the ancestral graves!

This was the cemetery!

A public cemetery!

Numerous deceased were buried here!

But, the outcome?

Because of these damn four-star!

Could they not change their location when they decided to engage in a fight?

“We have to make them pay for this!” someone hollered furiously.

“We have to make them pay for this!” others followed suit and said.

Hence…

Very soon, it evolved into a mighty demonstration.

Furiously raising the signs in their hands, the family members of these cultivators marched on the streets and surrounded all the major departments, hoping to seek an explanation!

At this very moment…

Lu Ming was having breakfast in front of the shop.

He saw a group of people holding signs of ‘four-star’, ‘goldfish’ and various related headlines high, shouting the slogan ‘We have to make them pay the price for this!’ and walking past in front of him.

This situation…

Could it be…

Lu Ming gasped as he slurped his Liangpi (Liangpi is a noodle-like Chinese dish made from wheat or rice flour. It is a specialty dish originating from the cuisine of Shaanxi Province but has now spread to many other places in China).

“Master!”

Xiaobai puffed her cheeks angrily. She simply took away the bowl in front of Lu Ming. There was still half a bowl of Liangpi left.

It was annoying!

He was too much!

He had to make so many slurping sounds each time he ate!

Liangpi…

What’s so good about slurping Liangpi!

“I’m done for.”

At this moment, Lu Ming’s scalp felt numb.

To hell with it.

He did not have the heart to care about Liangpi anymore.

Oh.

Crap!

If yesterday’s matter was discovered… He would not even know how he died when he did!

He was innocent!

The decision to engage in a fight was made by those four-star cultivators!

It did not have anything to do with him!

What he did was only to cast a Burial Mound Card to clear out the place. Hell… Who would have expected the bulls to demolish the cemetery? Oh, that’s not correct. The cemetery was already destroyed before the bulls came!

Who told them to go there to catch the goldfish!

Thankfully…

No one knew that it was him.

Lu Ming pondered carefully. After confirming that he did not leave behind any loopholes, his mind then eased.

Well…

This was the fault of the four-star big shots. It did not have anything to do with him.

Oh.

Right.

He heard that most of the four-star big shots had not left?

Lu Ming pondered deeply.

Yesterday, those cultivators were seemingly wounded. Hence, they could only remain here to recuperate. Well… Now, it seemed that they could not leave anymore.

Lu Ming was suddenly gloating.

“Master, what are you laughing at?”

Xiaobai was curious.

Master looked so dumb when he was grinning foolishly.

“It’s nothing,” Lu Ming laughed and said.

Although the most powerful figures in Qing Ming City were four-star cultivators, all the major departments could request deployment of personnel from the higher-ups. These guys were in deep trouble.

However…

Lu Ming’s happy mood did not sustain for too long.

In half an hour’s time.

Lu Ming received a familiar call.

Well…

“Hello? Are you Comrade Lu Ming?”

A man’s calm and deep voice, like that of a baritone, could be heard.

Lu Ming…

Comrade…

This voice and style…

Lu Ming suddenly had a bad premonition.

“Yes.”

Lu Ming sighed.

“Your friend Zhang Xueyao is with us. I hope that you can spare some time to make a trip here,” the ‘baritone’ said in a calm and deep voice.

True enough…

Lu Ming rolled his eyes. What else could he say? This fatty would die if he did not stir up trouble! Look at the current situation!

There was a demonstration going on!

It was a protest against the four-star big shots!

Why did you get arrested now to ‘join the fun’ at this moment?

“What crime did he commit?” Lu Ming sighed.

“He’s involved in extortion and blackmail…” said the ‘baritone’, obviously familiar with such situations.

“Wait a minute!”

Lu Ming thought that he had heard it wrong. Extortion and blackmail? Did you guys make a mistake? Given Zhang Xiaopang’s cowardly character, he would at most go for prostitution.

Extortion and blackmail?

This completely did not match his style!

“Are you sure?”

He was very doubtful.

“It’s better that you come here and take a look. We’re not so sure either.”

The ‘baritone’ sounded as if he was speechless.

Alright.

“Xiaobai, I will be going out for a while,” Lu Ming informed her. “Be careful when you’re at home alone.”

“Okay.”

Xiaobai waved her hands.

Very soon…

Lu Ming arrived at the familiar detention center.

Wait a minute…

Lu Ming rubbed his head. Am I that familiar with such a place now?

That damn fatty!

“Hello. It’s you again.”

Summoner policewoman who had met Lu Ming the last time cast an unfriendly look at him. Haha, she remembered very clearly. That fatty chirped that this person before her eyes now could blast the Summoner’s ass****.

“He’s inside,”

the young lady said coldly. “However, it’s not so easy to get him released this time.”

“Huh?”

Lu Ming was shocked. Wasn’t it just a matter of paying the fine?

“You can go and see for yourself. You will understand then.”

The young lady pursed her lips.

“Okay.”

Lu Ming nodded slightly.

After going inside, he discovered that Zhang Xiaopang was in the midst of an interrogation. Most interestingly, the one in charge of the questioning was Zhang Wei!

“Brother Lu.”

Zhang Xiaopang was ecstatic.

“Come here.”

Zhang Wei looked like he was having a headache. “The circumstances this time are a bit unique. It’s better to resolve it as soon as possible.”

Lu Ming was at a loss.

Regarding this matter, he heard some intriguing words before he even began speaking.

Unique, not so easy, extortion and blackmail…

Hell.

What did this fatty do, exactly?!

“Actually, it’s nothing much.”

Zhang Xiaopang was a little embarrassed. “Didn’t a lot of four-star seniors come here to look for the goldfish yesterday? I just wanted to join in on the fun.”

“Wait a minute!”

Lu Ming interrupted him. “Yow are aware of this too?!”

He was truly taken aback.

Spirit body!

Goldfish!

Ordinary folks knew about this matter only after what happened yesterday!

This fatty!

He actually knew about it yesterday!

Even he had obtained this information out of Jiang Feng through some tricks and bluffing.

“Er, I know about it.”

Zhang Xiaopang scratched his head.

“How did you know?”

Zhang Wei’s expression was very solemn.

He had to clarify this. This was very crucial.

If news were to spread each time before the powerful cultivators struck, it would cause huge panic and result in more deaths and causalities!

“Uh.”

Zhang Xiaopang scratched his head. “Well… Many four-star cultivators came here a few days ago, right? Some of them had in-depth discussions and deep exchanges with the ladies. As I know many of the ladies, I unintentionally heard about the goldfish spirit body.”

Shush!

The entire room fell silent.

Zhang Wei and Lu Ming glanced at each other in the face. The way this information was obtained…

Forget it.

Zhang Wei could not be bothered anymore.

He supposed only this guy could succeed in such things!

Lu Ming was also speechless.

What could he say?

“Afterward?”

Lu Ming sighed.

“Then…”

Zhang Xiaopang looked a little embarrassed. “Yesterday, I wanted to go and take a look but realized that they are too fast. I couldn’t catch up with them at all. I thought of a good solution.”

“What solution?”

Lu Ming was expressionless.

“Didn’t those big shots fancy young ladies?”

Zhang Xiaopang said in a solemn expression, “After the huge battle, they would be both mentally and physically exhausted. At this time, if the gentle and kind ladies were willing to take care of them, they would definitely be delighted! Hence, I found some ladies that I know to coax these powerful cultivators who had just returned from the battlefield!”

Humph!

Zhang Wei suddenly snorted. “He is being convicted for blackmail and extortion after secretly filming videos?!!”

Lu Ming was dazed.

Blackmail!

Extortion!

So, they were referring to this!

“Wait a minute!”

Lu Ming suddenly recovered from his senses.

Wrong!

They were not ordinary cultivators but four-star ones! They were true-blue big shots! Zhang Xiaopang, this lad, actually dared to blackmail them!

“You refuse to even let four-star cultivators go?”

Lu Ming was shocked!

“Not really.”

Zhang Xiaopang said earnestly, “Weren’t they injured yesterday?”

This was amazing!

What else could he say?

He had seen people who deserved it but not someone who deserved it that much. Damn. He even dared to blackmail and extort four-star cultivators?!

Why didn’t you go to heaven yesterday?!
