Chapter 434 - Immortal Descending on Dongting
Chapter 434 Immortal Descending on Dongting
It’s a comprehensive battle-oriented starship with a capacity to accommodate tens of thousands of people. No wonder the street lights in Yueyang District nearby are overshadowed.
The citywide call has begun. Hearing the familiar voice of Mr. Pang, the restless citizens gradually calm down.
Words are like a spell which allows communication between even the gods of the heaven and ghosts of the underworld. What Mr. Pang said are cliches. However, perhaps because of the sincerity peculiar to a political star of his age, he is able to calm the people with his speech.
The starship floating in mid-air takes no further action. While Mr. Pang’s address wafts through the closed Dongting City.
“... We are also a Rank One member star of the Alliance. If the Alpha Alliance wages wars against us for no reason, the Interplanetary Basic Law will be suspended. And the Alpha Alliance will inevitably be sanctioned by a more advanced civilization.”
Mr. Pang is gently telling the public about the binding relationship between the Alliance and the member stars. However, smart people ridicule the “Interplanetary Basic Law”. Tens of millions of planets in the universe are inhabited by intelligent lives, and the earth has no advantages. Why should more advanced civilizations stand up for the earth? If they do so, they will offend the powerful Alpha Alliance.
Of course, most ordinary citizens take Mr. Pang’s words as a lifeline. As they listen to the speech, much of their anxiety is dispelled.
“Mayor Pang.”
A female voice suddenly becomes audible overhead, and Mr. Pang’s address comes to a pause.
Human voices will undergo certain changes through electronic amplification equipment, but the characteristics of the voice cannot be altered. The female voice feels like the flowing of a spring. Even the smart people who initially disdain Mr. Pang’s words have now calmed down and looked up at the sky.
“Mayor Pang, please send these prisoners of war to the Alpha Alliance.”
Bao Honglai hides in the office of the City Hall. He breaks out in a cold sweat. He can’t forget that voice even in his dreams. He remembers the magnificent smile with the callous words “throw him out”. From that day on, he has fallen on evil days! Does the female cultivators know his wish to get back the villa?
“What do you mean by prisoners of war?”
“Is the cultivator captured?”
“No. There are no female soldiers in the Alliance Garrison... It must be the female cultivator who won!”
A ripple stirs up huge waves. The whispering is magnified infinitely, and the public cannot believe this conclusion.
If the female cultivator has won, the starship of the Alpha Alliance overhead is her trophy, isn’t it? A starship! Not the inner bolus of the third or fourth-level mutant monsters! Even if they kill all the mutant monsters on the earth and sell them for money, the Alpha Alliance will certainly not sell the high-end starship to the earth!
As if to confirm this guess, a small door is opened at the bottom of the starship. With a ray of light, the public sees the tied-up officers and soldiers of the Alliance Garrison, handsome guys from the Caesar Star and ugly lizard men. All of them are indeed members of the Alpha Alliance.
These prisoners of war are thrown to the ground. It is unknown whether they have broken their legs, but it’s sure that they are alive.
Greatly amazed, Mr. Pang wants to cry and laugh. Arrangements are made to rescue the prisoners of war on the ground. Afterwards, a small airship is dispatched from the starship to pick up Mr. Pang.
Due to loyalty or being profit-driven, the secretary decides to accompany Mr. Pang on the possibly dangerous trip. The two are taken into the starship.
To Mr. Pang’s surprise, the one waiting for him is not Lin Luoran.
It’s a woman wearing yellow Huaxia costume with a huge peony on her head, who should have only existed in legends. The woman is pointing to a bunch of weapons and hundreds of mechas.
“She bade me to give these to you, but only two of you have come. Does it mean I should carry them for you?”
Weapons and new mechas of the Alliance! Mr. Pang gasps, disregarding the arrogance of the woman in the palace dress. He only feels that his palms are sweating due to excitement. He doesn’t think of how his political career would change after the “prisoner-giving” incident. As a native of the Earth Federation, he could only think about the value of the high-end weapons that the Alliance forbid to sell. They are far more valuable than a large sum of money.
“Well, don’t forget this gadget.”
The beauty in the palace dress points to a small round blue box made of alloy on the table.
Mr. Pang grabs it in his hands. His heart can’t help beating violently.
It’s a small storage device. Mr. Pang is more excited about it than about high-end weapons and mechas. If the entire starship is captured by that person, you can imagine what information is contained in this small round box.
What a precious gift!
“Lin... Where is Mortal Heart Fairy?”
As Mr. Pang utters the words Morale Heart Fairy, he realizes that Lin Luoran deserves the title.
“She has been back to the Dragon Palace.”
The lady in the yellow palace dress lifts her chin slightly. She seems to hate Mr. Pang, the troublesome official of the new era. The secretary is angry at the sheer arrogance of White Fairy but dare not challenge her.
Mr. Pang has always been sober-minded, but now he feels cold sweat trickling down his back.
Dragon Palace. Are you kidding?
Lin Luoran is indeed in the Dragon Palace at this time.
Although the Dragon Palace is gorgeous, the siblings of the Ma family still worry all day. So, when Lin Luoran returns safely, Ma Shuangshuang greets her with red eyes. “Aunt Lin, are you okay?”
Lin Luoran is in a good mood. She deliberately intimidates the little girl, “What should we do? We have to go into exile!”
Ma Shuangshuang utters a sigh. She doesn’t think of the suffering of the exile, but she hates to part with the well-furnished villa of the Ma family. But Ma Yiming detects the merry mood behind Lin Luoran’s words.
“So, you won, Aunt Lin?”
Lin Luoran nods. “I’ll talk about it later. Yiming and Shuangshuang, you didn’t answer my question last time. Would you like to follow me in cultivating personal ability?”
Ma Yiming and Ma Shuangshuang look at each other and nod without hesitation.
“Since I am just recruiting apprentices on my brother’s behalf, you should still call me aunt!”
Ma Yiming and Ma Shuangshuang have heard of the agreement between Ma Ming and Lin Luodong. Therefore, they have no objection to Lin Luoran’s acting on Lin Luodong’s behalf. Lin Luoran sends the two out of the Dragon Palace. She tells them to return to the villa and pick up some personal effects. Suddenly, she remembers the newly learned holy spell and tests it against the big fish and old shrimps in the big fishing boat. The golden carp can only convey simple emotions, which is disappointing. In contrast, an inconspicuous old black shrimp can utter fragmented sentences after hiding away for some time.
” Master Dragon King... I... your humble servant...”
Lin Luoran can’t help laughing. Watching the old shrimp huddle up in fear, she feels like she has done something cruel. However, the ability to form sentence fragments under the holy spell indicates this old shrimp is extremely promising! Lin Luoran immediately places the shrimp in a new pool. She also put in the Water spirit stone pried from the ceiling of the stone room in the Ethereal Palace. The new environment can help this old black shrimp develop its ability.
Later, Lin Luoran goes around the Palace of Jiuhua. It occurs to her that the siblings of the Ma family also have a chance to select treasures. Forget it. As they just start to cultivate personal ability, they’d better stay away from distractions.
Lin Luoran is about to leave the Palace of the Void when a black lotus seed turns silently to her feet.
Lin Luoran picks up the lotus seed out of curiosity. How could it appear in the Palace of the Void? She has never planted lotus flowers in space! Suddenly, she recalls what happened in the past. She is shocked and feels that the lotus seed in her hand is extremely hot.
It is the strange black lotus that Xin Yuanping once held!
Lin Luoran’s first reaction is to throw it away, but fire phoenix in space is extremely dissatisfied. “You fool! It’s a rarity. Pick it up first. I will explain the whole thing to you later.”
Lin Luoran finds it both funny and annoying. After all, the blood pool underground palace was always an unpleasant memory. She throws the lotus back into space, which is immediately taken away by fire phoenix... The lotus seed may never be returned, just like the case of the dragonbone.
When fire phoenix has gone, Lin Luoran takes out from space a robot with half the height of a person. She leaves behind a lot of space rice and tells the robot to feed it to the fishes and shrimps. After that, she goes out of the Dragon Palace at ease.
After hijacking Alpha Alliance’s starship, she cannot stay on the earth lest she should bring trouble to it. She has to go somewhere to avoid the disaster. Two concubines come to meet and talk to Lin Luoran before she flies to the villa of the Ma family.
The siblings of the Ma family are packed and ready to go. Ma Shuangshuang looks back frequently at the stubborn girl who has been waiting in front of the villa.
“What’s your name?” Lin Luoran asks though she knows the answer.
The girl raises her head in surprise, “Fairy, my name is Han Weiya.”
Lin Luoran nods and says, “Come on, but we may not follow the same path with you... You won’t bring along your bodyguards, will you?”
Han Weiya nods immediately, disregarding the expressions of her bodyguards standing in the wind. Obviously, she will not budge despite their repeated call of “Miss Zero”.
Lin Luoran takes the three into the starship where Mr. Pang remains. To avoid being noticed, this batch of mechas and weapons cannot be transported in an instant.
Mr. Pang sees Lin Luoran approaching with the siblings of the Ma family and a young girl familiar to him.
“Weiya?” Mr. Pang is surprised when he recognizes the girl.
Han Weiya is a little embarrassed, but soon she summons up the courage to reveal her plan to Mr. Pang.
To her surprise, Mr. Pang, a friend of her father, does not dissuade her but expresses his joy. “You have grown up. Uncle Pang hopes you can learn to control your temper. Nothing more.”
Han Weiya steals a glance at Lin Luoran and nods seriously.
Lin Luoran takes two steps forward with the siblings of the Ma family but then stops. “Mayor Pang, I will leave the earth soon. If the Alpha Alliance wants to hold somebody accountable, tell them to seek me. Again, tell them that I will destroy whatever garrison they send to the earth. My name is Mortal Heart. Let them know it so that they won’t get the wrong person!”
Lin Luoran’s remarks are heard by Mr. Pang, his secretary, and even the crowd throughout the Dongting City.
The self-confidence and arrogance behind the speech are self-evident. However, it is the words “Mortal Heart” that bring the strongest reaction to everyone, like the hiss of water falling into the hot pan!
—Can she be the Mortal Heart Fairy who has protected the Dongting City for more than three hundred years on Mount Jun Island?
