Chapter 783: King of Bugs, Fang Jinxiu
Lu Jun stood there dumbfounded, what on earth was happening?
This wasn't supposed to happen. Tang Rao said, "Cuteness is justice." I'm cute and handsome, and yet I'm being ignored by Fang Jinxiu, this is simply unbelievable.
Fan Xiaohua also wore a stunned expression, holy shit, this beauty is fierce.
She's extremely beautiful yet equally violent.
So attractive, so invigorating for men.
Men are such masochists, loving the kind of women who can mistreat them deeply. The deeper the pain, the more passionate the love.
"I really like her!" Fan Xiaohua said, his face filled with infatuation.
"Tang Rao, you trash, what kind of freaks have you gathered around you?!" Fang Jinxiu turned back to scold Tang Rao, and then pointed at Fan Xiaohua, "Kid, if you dare to keep staring at Daddy Jinxiu, do you believe I'll make you regret being born into this world?!"
Intimidated by Fang Jinxiu's threat, Fan Xiaohua really didn't dare to look directly at Fang Jinxiu anymore, but clearly, the guy seemed even more excited, as if he was about to get high.
"Alright, Jinxiu, you've been bullying others since you came out, give some face, will you?" Tang Rao rolled his eyes at Fang Jinxiu.
Fang Jinxiu chuckled.
"Of course, if I don't show these kids who's boss, they'll think I'm easy to talk to. What a joke, when I followed you to conquer the world, they were still playing in their little bird nests in some corner!"
Tang Rao: "..."
Playing in little bird nests... That's something only Fang Jinxiu would say.
"Let me introduce you. This is Fang Jinxiu." Tang Rao said to Lu Jun and Fan Xiaohua.
"Hello Sister Jinxiu, my name is Lu Jun."
"I'm Fan Xiaohua."
Both of them introduced themselves, looking very cautious, afraid that Fang Jinxiu might flare up again.
"Let me tell you two, don't feel disgruntled. I'm just more experienced than you are. And not to brag, but Tang Rao needs me all the time. Without me, his life would be boring, a complete mess, and would dry up to death." Fang Jinxiu said.
Lu Jun and Fan Xiaohua looked on with wide eyes, then gazed at Tang Rao with admiration.
The Sect Master is so impressive, always able to... you know... with Fang Jinxiu.
Yes, that's how the two of them understood Fang Jinxiu's words.
All this talk of needs and drying up, isn't it about that? We might all be young, but we're seasoned drivers, we get it!
Tang Rao: "..."
"Come on, now that we've met, Daddy Jinxiu will give each of you a present." Fang Jinxiu took out two handguns and tossed one to each, Lu Jun and Fan Xiaohua.
The two held the guns, dumbstruck. What the heck are these? They look dark and mysterious, what are they for?
The barrel's long, it can't be something women use themselves to be happy with, right? Geez, it looks high-tech, wonder if it has a vibration feature.
"Give them a try." Fang Jinxiu said.
"Eh?!!" Fan Xiaohua and Lu Jun blinked furiously, give them a try? Try what? How do you try it? On ourselves?
Oh my god, that doesn't sound good, it's too violent, that'll hurt the butt~
"Sister Jinxiu, this... isn't this for women? We, we can't really use it." Fan Xiaohua said.
Fang Jinxiu: "..."
Tang Rao: "..."
"Tang Rao, what Realm is Lu Jun in?" Fang Jinxiu, too lazy to explain, took out another handgun and looked at Tang Rao as she asked.
"Uh, a Second-Realm Heavenly Immortal," Tang Rao said.
Fang Jinxiu nodded: "Then he shouldn't die."
As she spoke, Fang Jinxiu lifted the pistol and aimed it at Lu Jun's chest.
"Bang!" Before Lu Jun could react, Fang Jinxiu fired the gun.
A booming sound ensued, followed by a beam of light that burst from the barrel and thumped against Lu Jun's chest.
Lu Jun was blasted away, his body flying dozens of meters before crashing heavily to the ground.
Fan Xiaohua was dumbfounded, thinking, what the heck? Some kind of hidden weapon? It looks incredibly powerful.
As for Tang Rao, his eyes were filled with excitement; it was clear that Jinxiu's research had succeeded. She had managed to apply Immortal Power to a weapon, triggering it instantly with tremendous force.
The strike just now was almost equivalent to the power of a First-Realm Heavenly Immortal.
"Ouch..." Lu Jun had also gotten up by now, with his chest clothing burned away and his skin blackened.
As a Second-Realm Heavenly Immortal, Lu Jun didn't suffer a fatal injury.
If it were a First-Realm Heavenly Immortal, the outcome might be uncertain.
The speed of that last shot would have made it a challenge even for a First-Realm Heavenly Immortal to dodge.
"If you don't want it, then give it back to me," Fang Jinxiu said to Lu Jun and Fan Xiaohua.
The two quickly stored the pistol in their Space Rings. Joking aside, this thing was outrageously awesome; why would they even consider returning it?
It was clearly evident that Fang Jinxiu's advantage was entirely due to the pistol's power. Having a weapon with an inherent attack capability was simply unbelievable.
Without exaggeration, given the right timing, an ordinary person wielding this device could even take down a First-Realm Heavenly Immortal master.
If sold, this could possibly fetch millions of Immortal Stones.
In the Land of Immortals, there are plenty of wealthy but talentless individuals who would be formidable with such a weapon in hand.
"Jinxiu, what's the limit for this?" Tang Rao asked.
"As long as you have strong materials and a powerful Immortal Power output, to be precise, there is no limit," Fang Jinxiu said.
Tang Rao was stunned for a moment, thinking, isn't that kind of bug-like?
"I have a weapon that can withstand the force of an Immortal Emperor; and I have an Immortal Crystal, condensed from the power of an Immortal Emperor master. Are you saying it's possible to make a gun and then kill an Immortal Emperor master with it?" Tang Rao asked.
"Theoretically, yes. But such high-grade materials are definitely hard to work with; unless you can melt them, I won't be able to forge it. And even if it's successful, it would be a one-time thing, after all, there's only so much Immortal Power in an Immortal Crystal and it won't regenerate," Fang Jinxiu explained.
"Jinxiu, you really are..."
"Hurry up and praise me!"
...
Tang Rao had an idea in mind; he wanted to fully utilize the Immortal Crystal from Li Shengxuan. First, to boost everyone's strength, then to craft a pistol with the remaining Immortal Crystal.
If successful, it might be possible to one-shot an Immortal Monarch at the Fifth or Sixth Realm.
Just thinking about it felt brutal.
"Looks like it's time to seek out Liu Mingyue," Tang Rao mumbled. Materials capable of withstanding Immortal Monarch–level power shouldn't be hard to get hold of, but for melting, he would have to find Liu Mingyue.
"We need to deal with Qinghe Sect quickly," Tang Rao mumbled again. He couldn't feel at ease without handling the Qinghe Sect.
Once the ancestor of Qinghe Sect ascended to Immortal Monarch, they would surely begin aggressively absorbing surrounding powers. Bounty City was now under Tang Rao's control; naturally, he couldn't just watch it be swallowed by Qinghe Sect.
Besides, Bounty City also carried the task of expanding Illusion City's influence; there was no way it could be ceded to Qinghe Sect.
