Chapter 79 Something Fell From the Sky
The figure was falling faster and faster; at first it was just a black dot, but in the blink of an eye, its outline could be seen.
One was a boy dressed in strange clothes. He had his arms outstretched, and the hem of his clothes fluttered in the wind, but there was no trace of him controlling any magical artifacts or spells.
He fell straight down like a shooting star.
"Get out of the way!"
Ma Chao let out a low shout, grabbed Gao Haoguang in his arms with one hand, and with the other hand, the forged gold prosthetic hand flew out and grabbed Huang Erguo from the other side.
As magic flowed instantly, a semi-transparent shield appeared above their heads, protecting the three of them.
Almost simultaneously.
"boom""
The figures crashed heavily onto the bluestone ground in the courtyard.
Gravel flew everywhere, and dust rose up in the air.
The shield trembled violently, sending out a visible shockwave. The impact of the shockwave caused the wooden table, bowls, dishes, and even the plate of glistening stir-fried pork with carrots to vanish without a trace.
Gao Haoguang subconsciously closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he saw a shallow, human-shaped pit in the center of the courtyard.
There was a person lying in the pit.
Not moving at all.
The dust settled slowly.
As the shield dissipated, Ma Chao released his grip, Gao Haoguang stumbled a couple of steps to regain his footing, and Huang Erguo plopped down on the ground, staring blankly at the scene before him.
The bluestone slabs in the courtyard were shattered into dust, and spiderweb-like cracks extended all the way to the base of the wall.
The spot where the dining table used to be was now completely empty, not even a single piece of tableware remained, as if nothing had ever been placed there.
And the person in the pit...
"Is he... still alive?" Huang Erguo swallowed hard.
The moment he finished speaking, the man in the pit suddenly opened his eyes!
It wasn't a slow awakening, but a sudden opening of its eyes—those eyes were brighter than the sunlight, like two small suns.
The next instant, he sprang up from the pit, stood up, and began to move his limbs.
Its movements were stiff yet swift and agile, with its joints making soft "click-clack" sounds, like a puppet that had just been reassembled.
"Master... is this guy a human or a ghost?" Gao Haoguang took a half step back, staring at the figure, his fingers silently moving towards his waist...
But they found nothing.
What about the same month?
His heart sank suddenly, and he quickly looked down and around, only to see that the ancient armor plate had unfolded on its own and was hovering three feet behind him.
The surface of the armor plate shimmered and spun, and Jiang Mingzi stood with his arms crossed, looking at him with a half-smile.
"Are you looking for this immortal lord?"
"Master, you've come at just the right time!" Gao Haoguang blurted out. "This disciple begs for your help, Master. We are suddenly..."
"I won't help."
Jiang Mingzi's voice was like a bucket of cold water, crisp and decisive, leaving no room for maneuver.
This also left Gao Haoguang with the rest of his words stuck in his throat.
Meanwhile, in the courtyard, the boy who had climbed out of the pit had turned his head and was looking at them.
Those eyes.
Gao Haoguang had never seen such golden eyes on a person before. The pupils were vertical like those of a wild beast, frighteningly bright. He felt as if he were being stared at by a ferocious wild beast.
The boy finished exercising and stood still.
His gaze swept over the three people in the courtyard, finally settling on Gao Haoguang.
Ma Chao suddenly tensed up. Gao Haoguang was the last hope of his sect. If...
He dared not think about it. With a flick of his sleeve, a magic talisman appeared in his hand, pointing directly at the figure.
"You'd better not try anything with my disciple! Otherwise... otherwise, see how I deal with you!"
Gao Haoguang, who was behind Ma Chao, suddenly sensed something was wrong.
The person in front of him was looking at something behind him rather than at him.
The same image as the lunar calendar?
Before he could even try to verify it, the man suddenly opened his mouth, his voice hoarse, like the bellows next to a boiler.
"Jiang...Ming...
.son.
Gao Haoguang's eyes widened suddenly, and he turned to look at Jiang Mingzi and then at the person in front of him.
"Can this person see you, Master?"
Jiang Mingzi didn't answer, but just looked at the person, a slight smile appearing on her lips.
"Go to hell with you, you bastard immortal!"
If it's not Lu Mingfei, then who else could it be?
Lu Mingfei looked at his tattered clothes and dust-covered body, his lips trembling with anger.
"I might as well just kill myself!"
He never imagined that Jiang Mingzi's "try" meant he should try to travel to the side of this successor of the same month. The key point is that after traveling here, he completely lost consciousness!
Unconsciously, he fell from a height of 10,000 meters.
If his current Dharma body strength hadn't reached the level of a minor supernatural power, he probably wouldn't have just suffered minor injuries, but would have simply disappeared from this world.
Even if his life isn't worth much, this is just too worthless!
"Haha, I knew this would work."
Faced with Lu Mingfei's anger, Jiang Mingzi was in a good mood, looking at Lu Mingfei as if she were examining a rare treasure.
Even though the unlucky one is not the successor of the same month, at this moment, he has undoubtedly become the most useful successor of the Three Truths Dharma Gate in thousands of years.
Yes, it works well.
"You've won the lottery!"
Jiang Mingzi chuckled, and Tong Yueling circled around Lu Mingfei, her eyes filled with undisguised satisfaction.
"Winning the grand prize my ass!" Lu Mingfei gritted his teeth in anger. "I think you did it on purpose. Freefalling from 10,000 meters in the air, without even a moment's respite!"
"How would I, this immortal lord, know you'd faint?" Jiang Mingzi said nonchalantly. "Besides, you're not dead, are you?"
"I almost died!"
Lu Mingfei tugged at his torn clothes. "Look at this! If it weren't for my tough body, I'd be a pile of minced meat by now!"
"You almost died." Jiang Mingzi floated in front of him, twirling her finger across the screen. "And look how perfect this is—your innate divine power travels directly to its destination along the path of cause and effect, without even needing to find the way."
"Perfect my foot!" Lu Mingfei was so angry that he was trembling all over. Even standing in the sun, he felt cold in his hands and feet.
"This is murder! Premeditated murder!"
"That would only be considered murder if you died," Jiang Mingzi corrected. "Your survival is just an accident. Besides, with the minor supernatural power's avatar and your physique, you wouldn't have died from the fall."
"Thank you so much."
"No need to thank me."
Looking at the completely unreasonable and scoundrel-like immortal lord in front of him, Lu Mingfei was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Seeing that the man was not moving and was talking to thin air, Ma Chao stepped back a little, walked to the stunned Gao Haoguang's side, and lowered his voice.
"This person is talking to that Patriarch Jiang Mingzi..."
""
Although the Ma Chao cannot see, this situation of communicating with the air has occurred before, just yesterday.
"That's right."
Gao Haoguang recovered from his shock, looked at the illusory figure of Jiang Mingzi talking to the boy, and nodded to Ma Chao.
Lu Mingfei took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
Even though his chest was still aching, he was more furious than the physical injuries caused by Jiang Mingzi's "what can you do about it?" attitude.
"Fine, you win." He gritted his teeth. "So what do we do now? The feasibility has been proven, I can't just stand here and stare at you, can I?"
"What are you glaring at me for?" Tongyue Ling floated away again, heading towards Gao Haoguang's direction. "Tongyue Ling's time limit is limited, so naturally I have to talk to the successor of Tongyue Ling."
Looking at Tong Yueling and Lu Mingfei in front of him, Gao Haoguang was stunned for a moment. He reached out to stop Ma Chao, who wanted to step forward, and led Lu Mingfei towards the door.
A crisp mountain breeze blew outside the courtyard, and distant clouds and mist swirled around. On a distant mountaintop, the large hole left by Gao Haoguang using his powerful magical talisman remained.
Gao Haoguang and Tong Yueling faced each other, while Lu Mingfei leaned against the door frame with his arms crossed, looking completely unconcerned.
In the same month's order, Jiang Mingzi smiled, her gaze shifting between Gao Haoguang and Lu Mingfei, before suddenly speaking, "Your name is Haoguang, right?"
Gao Haoguang nodded subconsciously: "Yes."
"From now on, I'll call you Grey."
Gao Haoguang was stunned for a moment, and before he could react to this sudden nickname, Jiang Mingzi had already continued talking to himself, speaking as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
"If his name is indeed Haoguang, then his nickname should naturally be Grey Boy."
