Chapter 56: Luli's Special Technique

Chapter 56: Lu Li’s Special Technique

Indeed.

Lu Li felt rather helpless.

Why were all these monster girls so defyingly heaven-defying?

Though their age hardly qualified them as girls, their outward appearance was certainly sufficient.

Besides, as long as one maintained a youthful mindset in the heart, one remained forever young.

It was the exact same logic as how men always remained youths at heart.

"So that means there's no room for negotiation?" Lu Li flicked the ash from his cigarette. "To be honest, I really can't figure out why you want to destroy the world."

"Who asked my good man to be so heartless? This concubine has no choice but to resort to such a desperate measure." Huai Xu covered her mouth with a chuckle. "Besides, given this concubine's strength, wouldn't my good man find it even cuter if I were a little willful? For instance, if this concubine were on top when we go to bed..."

Lu Li's DNA stirred once again.

Mostly because Lu Li was far too skilled at overthinking.

Just imagine: Miss Huai Xu, with her aggressively dominating and glamorous big-sister physique, being very proactive while covering her face, biting her lip to suppress herself, leaving you to see only her flushed earlobes—

No!

He couldn't think about it anymore!

Lu Li urgently summoned the Blu-ray CG photos of Miss Bai and Miss Luo stored in the depths of his mind to counter Miss Huai Xu's temptation.

It was still a bit lacking.

He gave himself a vicious slap across the face!

Not far away, Pan Shuai, Li Guoping, and Xing Tian looked at each other in dismay.

"What do you suppose old Lu is doing over there, talking to thin air? And he even slapped himself..."

"I have no idea..."

Scene rewound.

Lu Li fell back into self-reflection.

He felt that he had grown strange again lately.

Clearly, back in front of Miss Bai and Miss Luo, he had been able to maintain the calm of a twenty-eight-year-old mature man (referring to his age).

However, Lu Li quickly realized something.

He only appeared poised and at ease when he held the initiative.

Once the other party became more assertive and he had no recourse, his mindset would completely collapse, making his thoughts easily influenced.

Now, having calmed down, Lu Li began to ponder a question.

What on earth was Huai Xu's goal?

He recalled the description of Huai Xu's personality on the blind date app.

[Personality traits: Erratic in her actions, making it impossible to tell what she is thinking, but in reality, she is a meticulous, calm, and composed individual with an extremely strong sense of purpose. As the saying goes, when a person dies they become a ghost, when a ghost dies they become a zhi, and thereafter they gradually become희 (silent) and yi (formless). Consequently, many people can neither see her nor hear her voice. All in all, she is a very lonely creature.]

Lu Li extracted the keywords from the text.

"Erratic in her actions," "meticulous in reality," "calm and composed," "an extremely strong sense of purpose," "lonely."

Now let's summarize.

First, Huai Xu was a lonely maiden.

No one could see her, and no one could hear her voice.

Yet now, he could, and he was very "special"—though he didn't know what made him special, special he was.

Therefore, the lonely Huai Xu had taken a fancy to him, and having been lonely for over a millennium, she was unwilling to let this opportunity slip away.

Thus, he had been abducted, followed by a somewhat intimate interaction.

Then he had bolted, and Huai Xu assumed it was because he couldn't bear becoming a denizen of the dead, so she intended to transform the entire world into a world of the dead.

And because it wouldn't exceed the world's bearing capacity, the world wouldn't collapse, meaning it wouldn't reboot.

In that case, Lu Li would be utterly doomed.

So what needed to be done now was to send Huai Xu out of this world.

Then how to get her out?

Fight her way out?

Impossible. Even if the entire world joined forces, it couldn't be done; even if nuclear bombs were used, it couldn't be done—of this, Lu Li was certain.

Then there was only one method left: let Huai Xu's power break through the world's bearing capacity, just like Miss Bai and Miss Luo had.

When that time came, she wouldn't be able to stay even if she wanted to.

That being said, as top-tier monsters who, upon arrival, could passively pollute the entire world just like Miss Bai and Miss Luo, why wouldn't the world collapse?

Keep in mind that was a passive effect, with their core power constantly radiating outward...

Right!

Lu Li suddenly discovered a blind spot!

Huai Xu hadn't lifted a single finger herself from start to finish!

Therefore... she was deliberately suppressing her own power!

Yet now she was continuing to remodel the world, and doing so right before his eyes...

Even among the dead souls sent out earlier for combat, there were four ancient Chinese legendary transcendents who would definitely throw the match, alongside one Spartacus who was guaranteed to defect...

Could it be that all of this was part of her calculation?!

She must have a purpose!

As long as he found this purpose, Lu Li felt he could break the deadlock!

What on earth could it be?

Watching Lu Li deep in thought, Huai Xu curved her eyes into crescents. "My good man, this concubine is about to begin~ Don't resist; if you resist... it will be very painful."

Her goal was about to be realized!

As long as her good man made a move against her!

She wanted to give him this opportunity.

"My good man, if you promise this concubine one thing, perhaps this concubine won't transform this world into a world of the dead."

Lu Li, who had been lowering his head in deep thought, raised his head and asked, "What thing?"

"If you can give this concubine a kiss."

Huai Xu's pink eyes were misty, her cheeks faintly flushed.

Her slender, snow-white index finger lightly tapped her pink, plump lower lip. "If my good man is willing, this concubine might just consider it~"

Lu Li remained expressionless, completely unmoved. "With your strength, if you wanted to use force, could I possibly resist?"

"This concubine will now cast aside all defenses." Huai Xu covered her face with both hands, yet the gaps between her fingers were wide enough to reveal her lovely almond-shaped eyes. "Actually, this concubine's body isn't very stiff either..."

Lu Li's ears perked up, his eyes scanning Huai Xu up and down like an X-ray machine.

Not very hard meant it was very soft, then?

Very soft?

Where was it very soft?

However, casting aside all defenses...

Wasn't this a prime opportunity for a sneak attack?

"Then come on! Don't hold back just because I'm delicate and pitiful!"

Lu Li opened his arms wide and even puckered his lips.

Of course, this wasn't because he was lecherous; he merely wanted to make Huai Xu let down her guard!

That's right! Everything was for the sake of saving the world!

Not far away, the three men looked on in shock and suspicion.

"What is old Lu doing? Embracing thin air? Is this really the time for that kind of stuff?"

"Little Lu might be mentally unstable. Actually, it's understandable—after all, the heavy responsibility of saving the world rests entirely on his shoulders. Just let him relax a bit."

"No way! Brother Li even has his eyes closed! His mouth is wide open! Holy crap! Is he practicing tongue exercises?"

"Uh... perhaps it's some kind of special relaxation technique. Powerful experts always have weird quirks, understandable..."

"Holy crap! He's starting to whip his tongue around!"

"This... this... old Lu is powerful, so having quirks a bit weirder than others is understandable, right?"

"He's even starting to spin in corkscrews, dammit!"

"..."

Li Guoping and Pan Shuai were already speechless.

To be honest, it was getting hard for the two of them to keep making excuses for Lu Li...

Hugging and fondling the empty air while making a rapturous expression and wildly thrashing one's tongue about was truly, freakishly weird!

Flop-era Single Diary: After writing this chapter, out of curiosity, I tried going to the bathroom to repeat Lu Li's actions in front of the mirror. It is seriously so freaking disgusting! I feel like I'm going to have nightmares.
