Chapter 1723: Chapter 577: Softness Can Overcome Hardness {Part 2}

The Aegean Tomb Raiders have a saying, “Wet for ten thousand years, dry for a thousand years”; meaning in places with water, bodies are often preserved longer than in dry places.

Liu Zhenhuan could see that these strong bodies underwater were indeed Orcs.

In the slang of the Silk Continent, they would be called bookish scholars.

As Jiu Lang said, this Seven Treasures Pagoda was indeed the trump card during the unification of the world by the Emperor Yun Qin of that era.

When the faint silver light of the Silver Flame Beauty shone on these wet corpses, their hair floated like algae, entwined with gold and silver jewels, sparkling as if welcoming old Liu.

This really hit old Liu’s sore spot.

He began contemplating whether to look for his wife later and first retrieve some treasures to check their quality.

“Richard? Is it Richard?” From the other side of the corridor, in the adjacent room, Helen’s voice came from afar.

They must have also heard the loud sound of the bronze path being broken just now.

“It’s me!” Reluctantly looking around the water, old Liu laughed! Most of these wet corpses were the black-and-white Panta Warriors. They say pandas are the ace warriors of the Silk Continent, and it’s indeed not just talk!

The weapons used by these Panta Warriors were all rounded metal barrels inlaid with gold and jade, with Elemental Fluctuations flickering like candles in the wind, making old Liu’s heart beat uncontrollably.

Besides the Panta, there were also many wet corpses of golden-haired human warriors underwater.

These golden-haired humans closely resembled the Aegean people, with their wrists adorned with angular, elegantly designed metal gauntlets. Long metal blades protruded from the knuckles, resembling the second-generation Shaman Claws from Fei City, but their workmanship was noticeably more exquisite and luxurious.

Nowadays, people in the Silk continent are black-haired, and the Aegean Humans are golden-haired, but during the Yun Qin era of the Silk Continent, golden-haired humans also existed, though they were quite rare.

These golden-haired human warriors were outstanding hand-to-hand combat experts, skilled in using retractable claws. Ning Yu had mentioned to old Liu in casual conversation that one reason these strong warriors were not taken by alchemists on voyages seeking medicine was that these golden-haired people were naturally averse to water and prone to seasickness.

According to the Aegean Race’s classification system, Liu Zhenhuan believed these golden-haired humans should be considered Golden Silk Mungks.

However, it seemed these unlucky individuals offended the Emperor Yun Qin quite a bit back then, not receiving any lenient treatment despite also being humans.

“Richard! This chick is amazing, quickly call over Yitiao!” Avril’s voice, accompanied by the whistling sound of magic shooting through the air, reached old Liu’s ears.

“What’s wrong?” Liu Zhenhuan was studying the Eastern Cardiel warriors and their war halberds underwater when he heard signs of a fight. He quickly utilized the wave-stepping ability of the “Linglong Jade Wave Mole” to stand up from the water and rushed towards the corridor.

While running, he didn’t forget to turn back and admire the irregular passage he had opened, silently thankful.

Fortunately, it was a full moon night; without Isidore’s second Berserk state, it would have been uncertain whether he had the strength to break through such a thick bronze wall.

“Richard! Wait, you can’t come over for now!” Daisy and Nana’s urgent and tense voices followed.

“Damn it!” Hearing the magic battle intensify, Liu Zhenhuan didn’t dare to stop.

A soft, crisp voice followed, speaking in the common language of the Silk Continent. Old Liu didn’t have time to switch his mental power to comprehend the first half, but he sensed the latter half, which was nervously questioning, “….Who are you…. Don’t come over….”

“I’m the owner of the Evernight Aurora….” Liu Zhenhuan gritted his teeth and rushed into the secondary chamber along the water’s surface.

The initial frenzied hacking and slashing had cracked several cuts in his tiger’s mouth. Having just seen the treasure and forgotten the pain, he now realized his hand was covered in blood, and the water made it sting even more.

Halfway through his opening statement, Liu Zhenhuan was stunned.

He finally understood why all his wives were telling him not to enter.

The oval-shaped secondary chamber was also several hundred square meters, but only half of it was filled with water due to the sloping interior.

There was a platform and a tea table on the slope, as well as a white jade bed. Elise, Avril, Helen, Daisy, and Nana were gesticulating as they explained their intentions to a tall, slender black-haired woman, but it seemed largely ineffective, with both sides occasionally exchanging magic spells.

The black-haired woman with a mesmerizing figure had clothing so tattered it was barely recognizable. She was nervously standing in the center of the water on the slope, arm over her chest, holding an orange sword, confronting the bosses of Florence.

She couldn’t possibly compete with the Florence women warriors’ lineup alone. Even Helen’s phantom beast, the sea dragon, was terrifying enough in such enclosed spaces, not to mention the combination of flower elves and mermaid magic from the two Avrils!

Distracted by the confrontation, the slender black-haired woman happened to have her back facing Liu Zhenhuan, who rushed into the secondary chamber.

Her slender and mesmerizing small waist was fully captured by old Liu’s eyes.

She must be a super beauty!

With experience in courting women superior to his magic knowledge, Liu Zhenhuan needed only one glance at her back to confidently make this emphatic statement!

Before his mind could return from this enchanting scene, the black-haired woman sensed the ripples of water coming from behind her. She skated backward on the water’s surface, pulling out a dividing stream. With a “brush,” her sword stabbed backward, the orange sword tip thrusting toward old Liu’s chest from under her rib, elegantly, seamlessly, and viciously, without ever turning around.

This speed and responsiveness with the sword, as well as the uncanny attack trajectory, indicated that this chick was definitely a swordsmanship expert.

No need to say more; she must be Qingya Baoyu, Yitiao’s beloved.

“I’m the owner of Aurora!” Liu Zhenhuan was caught unprepared and nearly suffered a huge loss. Thanks to the extraordinary jumping ability of the “Sea Vorm,” he narrowly avoided the sword’s thrust at a critical moment.

Qingya Baoyu didn’t give Liu Zhenhuan a chance to explain. Before he could finish his sentence, she somersaulted backward in mid-air, spinning like a tornado. The orange sword in her hand created a dazzling light curtain like a wheel of treasure, not only sheltering her from exposure but also directly targeting Liu Zhenhuan’s vital parts.

“Damn, she’s a hottie too!” Liu Zhenshock was cursing inwardly. Careless, Qingya Baiyu has been locked in the Seven Treasures Pagoda for a long time, how come Helen and the others didn’t bring some clothes for her to change into?

“Alright!” With sheer force overcoming ten techniques, no matter how dazzling Qingya’s tricks were, Liu Zhenshock simply drew out the Snow Iron Dragon and with one sword strike knocked her orange-red treasure sword flying.

“Plop” sounded, this oddly colored sword emitting a strange fragrance fell into the distant water, splashing water everywhere.

“Listen to me, I am the boss of Evernight Aurora!” Liu Zhenshock tried to make his expression sincere, explaining his identity and background to the little beauty whose shame made her face radiant as fire, while she pulled at her torn clothes.

Yitiao’s sweetheart indeed looked as radiant and enchanting as Fei Wenli, her brows and eyes remarkably resembled seven parts of her, no wonder Yitiao was so mesmerized when he first saw Fei Wenli.

Now this pretty little beauty was basically submerged in the water, only her pair of beautiful eyes were staring at old Liu, filled with outrage.

“Aurora! Evernight Aurora!” Liu Zhenshock smiled, slowly putting away his weapon, undoing the buttons of his Qing dynasty robe, preparing to toss the clothes to Qingya to change into.

It was already midsummer now, he was accustomed to being carefree, there wasn’t even an undergarment underneath the robe. From the moment he started to unbutton it, revealing chest hair, the outraged Qingya suddenly submerged into the water, a black shadow flashed beneath the water, charging towards Liu Zhenshock who was leaning against the corner of the wall.

Old Liu knew he probably violated the norms of the Silk Continent again!

“I reiterate, I am the boss of Aurora!” Old Liu this time didn’t intend to dodge. With his Vajra Subduing Demons body, even being hit by this little chica with punches and kicks was nothing, let alone a sword.

His explanation once again proved futile, a strange scene unfolded.

Across the Aegean with no foes ever before, till now only injured once by the Undead Mage during a sneak attack, Liu Zhenshock almost met disaster in Wheat City within the Silk Continent!

Qingya Baiyu sprang up with splashes of water, no one saw clearly what she did, old Liu was suddenly petrified there, like a dim-witted stump.

“Gaze Petrification!” Originally the Ferrigno shopkeepers were watching the drama laughing sneakily, this sudden 180-degree turn left them no time to prepare magic.

“Point-Strike?” Liu Zhenshock was cursing inwardly, only he knew that this fiery young lady Qingya sprang from the water, merely touching his chest lightly with her slender fingers, causing him to stiffen like fossilized stone.

This miraculous skill inevitably reminded old Liu of a few worn-out hand-copied martial arts novels he read a long, long time ago; only within those few books had he ever witnessed the wondrous skill of “Point-Strike” inciting passion in the weak!

Due to his fondness for those books, even now he still remembers the authors of those martial arts novels———

Actually before he joined the army at the Southern Border front line, during the first anti-infiltration insertion mission, the unit commander also found an old Chinese medicine doctor to teach the reconnaissance unit the skill of Point-Strike for stopping bleeding. Liu Zhenshock had been excited for quite a while, but eventually, the old doctor lectured everyone like this ———– Whenever injured on the battlefield, besides the family jewels, temples, and chest that can’t be messed with, everywhere else, just take out a needle and jab wherever it hurts!

Since then, old Liu deemed Point-Strike pure nonsense.

Yet unexpectedly, now in this foreign world, he genuinely encountered Point-Strike!

Natural enemies indeed balance each other, old Liu who had been overwhelmingly powerful breaking through copper walls with brute force was rendered completely helpless against this Point-Strike technique!

“Clang” a dragon roar sounded, Qingya relentlessly pursued victory, with one effective move, her other hand simultaneously drew Liu’s accompanying sword.

At such close range, sudden situational shift, with Qingya’s swordsmanship and agile moves, Liu Zhenshock couldn’t react in time. Watching the Snow Iron Dragon stroking towards his neck, Liu Zhenshock felt a complex mix of emotions.

He actually might die at the hands of his own people!

There’s truly nothing more unlucky in the world!

“No!” Yitiao’s shout echoed like a heavenly voice just in time, resonating through the underground palace.

Qingya’s battle sword forcibly halted right at Liu’s neck artery, making a dim red line on his skin.

The sharp claws of the two powerful servants were mere millimeters away from Qingya’s pretty face.

“Splash, splash” two hard objects hit the water simultaneously.

One sound came from Qingya’s sword dropping into the water, the other from a sweat droplet falling off Liu’s forehead.

“Damn it!” Liu Zhenshock secretly vowed, from now on he would wear armor even while sleeping.
