1068: Chapter 1054: Impenetrable 1068: Chapter 1054: Impenetrable “Fei’er?
Kerdalais expressed her surprise aloud, her emotions too complex to be deciphered in the moment.
Too many emotions mixed together, leaving her ultimately speechless.
How is this possible!”
The woman above was equally incredulous, yet her surprise was undisguised delight.
Immediately, she began to jump and wave her hands, as if trying to attract her sister’s attention.
At this moment, Fei’er couldn’t help but give a wry smile.
She had been on guard against Eve, wondering if she was the “assassin” sent by her mother.
Looking back now, it seemed ridiculous…
If this little girl had the brains, she wouldn’t have openly called for rebellion.
The thought of “that person” only increased her inner conflict.
Now, she had received the latest news, but she always found it hard to believe…
or rather, to accept.
Kerdalais, is she truly dead?”
The woman floated in midair, slowly sitting as though something in the void cradled her.
Unlike her impetuous twin sister, facing Lu Ping’an, her eyes remained calm as still water.
Her unfocused gaze seemed to indicate indifference, the question posed casually.
Yet, the pressure this put on Lu Ping’an exceeded that of any Rule-level being he had encountered before…
Lu Ping’an responded accordingly.
No deceiving, no excess words, just a simple declaration of “death,” confirming the fall of Kerdalais.
In that instant, even Ink Chrysanthemum Princess, who never showed her emotions, had a trembling voice.
Some causes and effects are inevitable, some fates must be faced.
Lu Ping’an knew this might well be his tribulation.
Avoidance was futile; the delay of destiny’s trials only brought about an avalanche of disasters.
What was meant to come would come eventually…
Lu Ping’an’s words had an effect; Fei’er, who was floating in mid-air, slowly stood up.
Her dark hair moved without wind, with infinite glimmers flickering faintly.
Her previously calm eyes slowly closed and on reopening, all was filled with lightning and thunder.
All being Kerdalais, how could she possibly be the gentle type…
Those eyes, tranquil as autumn waters, slowly fixed on Lu Ping’an.
Lu Ping’an took a deep breath, every bit of his strength at the ready.
He knew the only one who could save him now was himself.
The woman in midair laughed instead.
The graceful lady’s laughter grew more joyous, the light around her twisting and tearing.
Lu Ping’an felt an instinctual discomfort, as if everything around him turned into a falsehood.
Blood seeped from his ears, the corners of his mouth, and his eyes.
This wasn’t even an attack, just the “energy” from her emotional outburst.
“Oh, sorry, I didn’t mean to…”
In the next moment, she reined it in.
From that instant on, she returned to calm…
but the vibrations in the surrounding space intensified.
Her presence alone seemed like an infinite black hole, devouring all light and heat around her.
“Although, well killed…”
The girl floated weightlessly in midair, as if swimming upward, but…
“…it shouldn’t have been you who killed her.”
In that moment, a chill ran down Lu Ping’an’s back as the voice suddenly sounded behind him.
Slender hands rested on the young man’s neck, fragile and delicate, yet enough to twist steel.
Why didn’t his “eyes” see anything?
In a brief instant, those slender hands capable of tearing through steel touched the “steel plate.”
At that moment, she let out a soft exclamation and then gently drifted back.
Simultaneously, Lu Ping’an’s perception relayed that the woman continued to float upward.
“What have you done?”
“What have you done?!”
The same question was asked by both combatants.
Clearly, at this moment, both were unable to understand each other’s abilities.
In that instant, Fei’er had appeared behind Lu Ping’an, even capable of easily tearing through his neck.
In that instant, Fei’er did try to act…
but the Rule-level strength that tried to rip through flesh was eerily neutralized by Lu Ping’an.
“Heh, I’m starting to believe it, maybe she really did die by your hand…”
The composed woman sat once again in midair, seemingly in no hurry.
And at this moment, Lu Ping’an felt more perplexed…
This “Sister Fei’er” who fought with Eve was truly not the same caliber as him.
“In Eve’s memories, Fei’er, just like her, was only ‘ten years old’, while this Fei’er…
used to be my successor.”
Alright, this means that even amongst Rule-level Strongmen, Fei’er Kerdalais is probably the most difficult to deal with.
After all, a class of ninth-order Quasi-Divine is not something just anyone can manage…..
“Seventh-tier, but she’s a Dual Occupation Seventh-order, with my protection, she doesn’t need to be in such a hurry…”
Lu Ping’an took a deep breath, a thirty-something double rule level, and that was the result of holding back.
This actual strength and potential, I’m afraid, might be more outrageous than your average eighth-tier Boss.
“What exactly is her ability…..”
Looking up at the “Xiao Mu” floating in the sky, faintly sizing him up, Lu Ping’an directly asked.
If the situation allowed, Lu Ping’an wouldn’t ask his “Carry-on Big Cat,” since in most cases his Eye of Truth could see through everything, and even if he encountered complex abilities, he could logically deduce and analyze them.
But now, he has already made many guesses, yet still could not understand what was happening.
However, his opponent didn’t give him much time….
Lu Ping’an only felt a pain in his arm.
And at this moment, Fei’er in the sky had only slowly made the motion of a hand pistol.
The effect preceded the cause?
Or some other kind of misdirection?
Whichever it was, it likely pointed to one answer.
Lu Ping’an might play around with those new recruits who just stepped into the rule threshold, but now, he seemed to be facing a seasoned Rule-level veteran, and a double dose at that…
At this moment, Big Cat gave out guidance.
Amidst the explosive ring of fire, Lu Ping’an seemed to launch an attack.
Blazing flames converged at his feet, the red Runner stepped into the void, apparently ready to launch an attack.
But the strike he kicked out mysteriously hit empty space.
That weird sensation returned, and this time, Lu Ping’an found out that somehow, he had already put distance between himself and his opponent.
“Run normally, widen the distance, I’ll tell you about her ability…
But this time, Big Cat’s cry of alarm was still late.
Still a feat of Latecomer First, as Fei’er was slowly raising her hand, the lethal Death God had already hovered over Lu Ping’an.
In that moment, Lu Ping’an felt the presence of Death, as if his entire body had been placed in a box, then shaken back and forth, only…
Fei’er from afar showed a surprised expression.
She was still using her ability, her hands were clenching tight, as if something was resisting inside them.
But her ability had once again failed to achieve the expected effect…
“Interesting, Big Brother, can you tell what that ability is?”
Ha, only a fool would explain their own ability in the middle of a fight….
“Energy-devouring Skin, Rule-level power, I can devour any energy that touches my skin, including kinetic energy…
“Don’t respond to her, or even think about it.
She is still a High-level Scholar!
A Pure Scholar like you!”
But at this point, Big Cat’s warning seemed to be too late, as Lu Ping’an accidentally revealed an ace up his sleeve.
[Energy-devouring Skin (Lower Gold):Capable of directly absorbing energy from targets upon skin contact.
Note: This energy scope includes most forms of mechanical energy, kinetic energy, chemical energy, and bioenergy]
This was a super trait shared between Lu Ping’an and “Mumu,” and also the reason he didn’t die when he transformed into a Sunflower.
It looks like ranged attacks will be less effective against you.
Then, let’s try ‘blades’.”
The girl appeared thoughtful, and then clapped her hands the next moment.
Two Moonlight Blades floated in the air, their sharpness revealing that she seemed to have found a solution.
And Fei’er’s lightning-fast grasp of reality also made Lu Ping’an increasingly helpless.
“She has a PhD in physics, from a prestigious university that she entered on her own, and she wrote two somewhat famous papers,” said Big Cat, seemingly a bit proud.
Alright, religious figures of the New Era really do set the bar high, insufficient education seems to mean not fit to take over.
But at this moment, Lu Ping’an only wanted to drag Big Cat out and have a good rant…
Was such an opponent really someone a young man like him should be facing?
“Tell me any other bad news all at once…..”
Lu Ping’an ran while complaining, and his opponent…
“Xiao Mu is very sad, her Big Brother is dodging her…” the girl’s voice suddenly appeared in Lu Ping’an’s ear.
Even more bizarre, the next moment, the girl was coming face to face with him.
“….Her Runner level is also higher than yours.”
Alright, looks like I can’t even outrun her, truly another piece of bad news.
