I Have Many Life Tokens - Chapter 33
Chapter 33: Brother Fang!
Boom!
As if one were playing blast mode in CrossFire, a huge explosion was triggered in the small dune where Jiang Lin was lurking.
Jiang Lin and Fang Chaoqun leaped up against each other, but a dozen disciples of famous orthodox sects had already surrounded them.
“Brother Jiang, what should we do now?” Fang Chaoqun took out the long saber he had refined into a life-bound item, cold sweat pouring on his head.
Fang Chaoqun’s long saber was found in the mystic realm, and its grade was considered a purple rarity in Dungeon Fighter; it could be regarded as a fortuitous encounter, and the long saber was even more destined for Fang Chaoqun.
It would take at least 10 days or more to refine a life-bound item, but from what he said, it only took an hour, and it seemed like the grade would grow with the cultivation of Fang Chaoqun; it might even reach the level of a semi-divine weapon.
Alas… Jiang Lin felt that everyone around him had the life of a protagonist, while he had no fortuitous encounters for so many days, and even the Cosmos Matrix map, which wasn’t useful but could be sold for a good price, was lost…
Not only that, but Jiang Lin also seriously suspected that he had been sucked of his essence by some mountain demon in this mystic realm, and woke up in the morning with unbearable back pain…
“Brother Jiang, what’s wrong? Why do you look like you’re a bit sad?”
“Nothing. It’s just me lamenting the vagaries of the world. Brother Fang, pay no mind. But Brother Fang, where is your sister? She didn’t make it to the final round?”
“Sigh… It’s quite a shame. My sister originally infiltrated the Mahogany Armor Sect without a hitch. Then we could certainly achieve something great if I went in as an older brother, bringing chaos to their relationships, and disrupting their dao hearts so that they would be trapped by love, and eventually their set would collapse.”
“And then what?”
“But I didn’t expect that while running from the poison, those people were so focused on seeking opportunities that they ended up touching traps, and were locked in together, staying in the poison circle for too long, and were eliminated.”
“…So, the Sun Moon Sect is down to the two of us? And Chen Jia…”
“Seems like it!”
“…”
A man with a hairstyle rather like an alpaca raised his sword, and asked, “Jiang Lin! Hand over the Cosmos Matrix map, and I’ll spare your life.”
“Hiya.” Jiang Lin wiggled his butt quite coquettishly. “Check out the life-saving talisman around my waist—how can you spare me from death?”
“Little thief Jiang Lin! You used a scheme to harm the Totally Limitless Sect! You even humiliated us in front of Black Tortoise City; even if you get out of the mystic realm, you can hardly escape death.”
“Well, wait until you get out there and find me.”
“If I don’t kill this thief, I won’t be able to relieve the hatred in my heart, so please join me in killing this thief!”
“Go!”
Someone gave the signal, and everyone swarmed towards him.
“Brother Fang! I’m sorry, I’ve dragged you down.” Leaning his back against Fang Chaoqun, Jiang Lin couldn’t help but sigh. “If we go back to the Sun Moon Sect, I’ll let you have another 10 percent of our undergarment business!”
“Brother Jiang, that’s enough!”
“Brother Fang…”
“Brother Jiang… actually, I have something else to say.”
“Hmm?”
“I have another hidden feature with this saber.”
Jiang Lin was delighted. “Could it be that this saber of Brother Fang comes with an escape ability?!”
“That’s…” Fang Chaoqun blushed. “I’m quite proud of this. This saber is also known as the self-destructing saber; its hidden ability is self-destructing.”
“Huh?”
Just as Jiang Lin was confused, the dozen surviving young talents were already less than 10 meters away from the duo!
Fang Chaoqun gazed into Jiang Lin’s eyes. “Brother Jiang, live! Get the dragon spirit, promote the glory of the Sun Moon Sect, prove that the Sun Moon Sect is not a second-rate demon sect!”
“Brother Fang! Are you going to—”
Before Jiang Lin finished speaking, Fang Chaoqun grabbed Jiang Lin’s arm, just like when an old father held his son’s hand, and spun him around. Jiang Lin was turned 1080 degrees in place by Fang Chaoqun, and then Jiang Ling was flung far away.
“Don’t, Brother Fang!”
“Brother Jiang!” Fang Chaoqun looked up at the sky with a big righteous smile. “I’ll be going first!”
“Brother Fang…”
“No! It’s a trap! Hurry up and retreat!”
“No! I can’t control myself anymore!”
“I can’t put it away, either!”
Just as the dozen or so men were surrounding and trying to kill Jiang Lin and the other big black man in one blow, Jiang Lin was flung far away, while the big rough man stuck his long saber in the sand, and chanted some kind of incantation under his breath.
The ticking sound before a C4 exploded was getting faster and faster!
Bang!
A loud bang rang throughout the desert.
At this moment, a mushroom cloud rose in the desert of the mystic realm.
[Brother Jiang, let’s steal undergarments together again.]
[Brother Jiang, listen to me, do you know Chen Jia? That’s right, that martial artist, he’s fighting with a bear, hahaha, in the middle of winter, like an idiot.]
[Brother Jiang, someone is willing to buy your master’s undergarment at a high price. Look… oops… Brother Jiang, don’t hit the face… Ah, ah, don’t kick my little bird, either…]
[Brother Jiang, do you think the Sun Moon Sect can become the number one demon sect?]
[Brother Jiang…]
In the mushroom cloud, Jiang Lin seemed to see the black and silly smiling face of Fang Chaoqun, remembering those days when they went to the women’s bathhouse to steal undergarments.
But…
“Brother Fang! The power of your self-destruction is too powerful… I’ll be eliminated too…”
Just when Jiang Lin exhausted his spirit power to form a shield that barely resisted the explosion, and even saw his life go by his eyes again, two swords came towards him, and Jiang Lin felt bodies soft as cotton clinging to him.
Unfortunately, the blast was too strong, and Jiang Lin couldn’t open his eyes.
The two girls held onto Jiang Lin, and together they built a spirit barrier, the three of them using up all their spirit energy to withstand the explosion.
The immense sand and dust filled the desert, mushroom clouds followed by drifting sand and dust…
***
Two days had passed since that explosion, and after two days, the desert gradually regained its calm. Everything was as usual, except for a large crater left where Fang Chaoqun had blown himself up.
It was on the third day, a clear day, that a woman covered in dust and sand trudged up to a large mound.
“I think it’s here. Cut! In the end, this lady— this young master has to dig you up!”
The girl—who called herself “young master”—looked extremely innocent and flat-chested, but had long legs. She grunted a few times proudly, and kept digging…
Digging for two days, under the sand and dust, the girl finally dug up his shoes.
The girl’s eyes lit up with pure joy. She wiped the hot sweat from her forehead, and took in another breath of martial artist’s true qi as she kept digging.
Digging, though, the girl sensed something was wrong.
As the girl dug out everything, she saw that two girls died shielding him, clinging to him.
And he who was dreaming had a funny look on his face.
“Jiang Lin, go to hell!”
Pu…
Pushing aside the two girls, Chen Jia threw a punch, and Jiang Lin spewed countless sand out of his mouth…
