Decaying World

Chapter 189 189 Radiation I
"The martial arts school owner is quite interesting. How can an ordinary school owner be qualified to enter here?" Su Yaping smiled, stopped arguing, turned around and left the arena to chat with the other two original bloodline masters.

Lin Hui breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Hong Ling.

"Thanks to Brother Hong's help, otherwise this would have been really dangerous. This place is definitely not for me. I'm too weak, and I have no confidence in doing anything."

Hong Ling patted him on the shoulder.

“You’re not weak, it’s just that the situation here is a bit special.”

The competition has ended.

New waiters brought out large quantities of wine and tea, and the music changed to a softer, more melodious tune.

The atmosphere then became peaceful.

Hong Ling pulled Lin Hui away from the scene, preparing to go back early to let him experience the ultimate pleasure of the night.

The two left the teahouse and headed to the area where the moth carriages were parked.

They hadn't gone far when they were stopped by a somewhat familiar figure ahead.

"It really is Master Lin Hui." Su Yaping appeared out of nowhere, dressed in white, smiling at Lin Hui and Hong Ling.

He stood on the straight road leading to the moth carriage, his body exuding an intense aura of mingled spiritual and internal energy.

In addition, there was an inexplicable, invisible force that slithered around him like a snake, causing the void in Lin Hui's mind to tremble slightly.

"It is indeed a coincidence. I have met Palace Master Su before." Lin Hui bowed respectfully to the other party.

“Palace Master Su, the gathering is over. If you have time to wander around some more, let’s reschedule for another day. I have an appointment with Abbot Lin tonight, what do you think?” Hong Ling said with a smile.

His mother was an elder of the Extreme Desire Heaven. Even though Su Yaping's strength far surpassed his, she still had to give him some face on this land.

“I understand, but I have a few minor matters I’d like to confirm with Abbot Lin. I wonder if Young Master Hong could lend me his man?” Su Yaping said with a smile.

"Palace Master Su" Hong Ling noticed that Su Yaping was acting strangely and wanted to speak, but an invisible force rushed towards him, and he couldn't finish his sentence.

The opponent was a powerful figure at the Palace Master level, while he was merely a Divine Official. The difference between them was two major realms, a difference as vast as the size difference between an elephant and a mouse.

The key point is that he has already reached the limit of his talent and can no longer become stronger, which means that the gap between him and his opponent is something that can never be bridged in his lifetime.

As for Moon Tower, and even for Extreme Desire Heaven's mother, if he and Su Yaping had a conflict, his mother might not blame the other party, but instead beat him up first to vent her anger.

Lin Hui could see Hong Ling's embarrassment, but the other party was still standing in front of him. This had nothing to do with friendship; he and the other party were far from that level. Clearly, this was a matter of Hong Ling's own principles.

He sighed and gently patted Hong Ling's arm.

"Brother Hong, you should go back first. I'll be there in a bit. Since Palace Master Su wants to have a chat with me, how can a mere martial arts school owner from the outer city have the right to refuse?"

Hong Ling glanced at him helplessly, then looked at Su Yaping.

“Okay, I’ll wait for you at the moth carriage. Don’t take too long; Mother might still be waiting for us.” He emphasized the last sentence.

"I'll try my best," Lin Hui nodded.

After seeing Hong Ling off, only two people remained standing at the scene.

The teahouses and taverns on this floor, some distance away, were still bustling with noise, their music drifting from afar. The aroma of wine and tea filled the air.

But this area, being on the periphery, is surrounded by tranquility.

Only occasionally did a few afterimages flash towards the direction of the moth cart, but because their movements were too fast, they only flashed by.

"Palace Master Su, what do you have to say? I am all ears," Lin Hui said earnestly and respectfully.

"Was that you that day?" Su Yaping said calmly. "You were very fast, and your movements were very agile."

"I don't understand what Palace Master Su means. What do you mean by 'that day'?" Lin Hui asked, looking puzzled.

"Hehe." Su Yaping was too lazy to waste words. She gently raised her right hand, and her index finger lit up with a semi-transparent spiritual aura.

"I've been preparing well since last time, and I'd like to give it a try this time."

Last time, he was wary of that inexplicable aura and didn't dare to make a move. After returning, he specifically sought out a protective relic to avoid encountering that situation again.

"Palace Master Su, what are you trying to do?!" Lin Hui looked surprised and took two steps back.

"What have I done to offend you? Why are you stopping me out of nowhere and attacking me without warning?"

"..." Su Yaping stopped talking and pointed her index finger forward.

"What are you doing? This isn't Xingdao!" A clear and melodious female voice suddenly came from behind Lin Hui.

Su Yaping paused slightly and looked behind Lin Hui.

Under the dim, soft yellow light, a petite figure, only half the height of two people, slowly emerged.

It was a short-haired, red-eyed teenager.

Her head was round, somewhat like a radish head, and she wore a white robe with intricate gold trim and patterns that was even more luxurious than those worn by Hong Ling and the others. In particular, her eyes emitted a distinct red glow in the dim light.

Original Blood Noble
Su Yaping squinted and lowered her raised finger again.

“Miss, I was just joking with him. I had no intention of taking any action.”

"I looked from afar and it didn't seem like it. Are you planning to bully someone in Tu Yue?" Radish Head frowned, staring at Su Yaping, and asked without any politeness.

“Where.” Su Yaping smiled. He knew very well that in any city, bloodline nobles below the Mist People were absolutely rare and protected. If he were in Xingdao, with his power and strength, he could still challenge ordinary original bloodline nobles, but this was Tuyue.

These primordial nobles who have awakened their fel powers are all mobile cores of the Moon Tower.

You must not offend them.

"You'd better be joking," Radish Head said in a deep voice. "Alright, since it's a joke, let's all go our separate ways. It's so late, it would be a shame to waste time if we didn't go back and relax."

“What you say is true, young lady.” Su Yaping stepped back and disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye, her aura also fading away rapidly without lingering.

It's obvious they've given up.

Lin Hui finally breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to fight Su Yaping. This wasn't a suitable place to fight. If he accidentally revealed his internal energy attributes and the aura of purgatory, it would attract more trouble and be dangerous.

After all, a strong person like Su Yaping cannot be dealt with simply by hiding one's strength.

Fortunately, this young girl helped get out of the situation.

He then looked at the little girl.

"You are Lady Shaye?" Suddenly he recognized the other person. Wasn't she the kind-hearted noble of the original bloodline he met when he first came to the Moon Tower?

Yes, that's the little guy who takes the bus into the city.

Radish Head and Gauze Leaf burst into laughter.

"Yes, yes, it's me. I saw you in the teahouse just now, but something came up and I didn't get a chance to go over and acknowledge you. After I came out, I came here specifically to look for you, just to see if you were the person I met last time. I didn't expect it to be you. What a coincidence!"

She said in a clear, crisp voice.

"What did I say last time? If you're weak, don't come to the Moon Tower. People like you have some background, but not much. People like you are the most likely to get into trouble in the Moon Tower. If you're just barely able to get into the tower, then you'd better not come in. There are plenty of monsters here who do whatever they want. Look, if I hadn't intervened just now, you would definitely be in trouble."

"Yes, Miss Saeyo's great kindness will be remembered forever," Lin Hui said solemnly.

"It's not a big favor," Shaye said, a little embarrassed. "Don't thank me. Go back quickly. There are so few good people in this place. It's fortunate that I came to your rescue this time. If I hadn't been so lucky next time, you never know what might have happened."

"Yes, you're right." Lin Hui said with emotion, "This is indeed not a place for someone as weak as me. It is my good fortune to meet a kind-hearted noble of the original bloodline like you. I wonder if we could exchange mailing addresses so that I can send gifts of gratitude in the future."

"A thank-you gift... Hmm. That's something I could do. If you could get some cute creatures from the Fog Zone and send them over, that would be great. I'm not allowed to go out from my house," Saya pondered.

She took off the moon-white beaded necklace from her wrist and tossed it to Lin Hui.

"This is a token. If you want to send something, write 'Fifth Tower, 1744th Floor'."

"Alright!" Lin Hui caught the beaded necklace. "I am the abbot of Qingfeng Temple in the outer city. Miss, you can easily find out the address with a little inquiry. I have some reputation in the outer city." Lin Hui smiled.

"Okay, let's go quickly. Don't linger." Shaye waved her hand and urged.

Lin Hui responded, turned around, and used his movement technique to rush towards the moth cart parking spot.

Hong Ling was waiting in the car. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he had arrived safely.

"Hurry up and leave, thankfully nothing happened. The people from Xingdao's side are barbaric, always resorting to violence, so uncivilized. I don't know why Sister Han invited him to the meeting."

Lin Hui didn't say anything, just smiled, got into the moth carriage, and flew out of this level together.

Night had fallen outside. A sea of ​​fog rolled in below like a gray blanket, while above, countless silver and blue stars dotted the vast, dark night sky.

The cold night wind blew against the protective cover of the moth cart, creating tiny, transparent ripples.

They quickly returned to the 1,400th floor of the Hong family's residence.

The large, dark attic was now lit up.

In the dim light, the night wind howled, carrying faint moans.

Hong Ling remained expressionless as he alighted from the carriage, instructed the handsome male attendants who had come to settle him in, and then led Lin Hui quickly into a square-shaped black stone building.

“Before you enter the blissful time, let me give you some advice. The so-called blissful time is actually a dream space. Once you enter it, you will be influenced by the blissful mind collected and transmitted from the lower level, making it extremely easy for you to fall into lust. In that state, time will pass very quickly, so there is a huge bell in the space to remind you that the time is about to end and you need to withdraw your mind and wait to wake up,” Hong Ling said earnestly.

"Is it all about lust?" Lin Hui asked curiously.

"It depends on you. Whatever you crave most, it will fulfill that desire. At the same time, it will greatly enhance your sensory sensitivity," Hong Ling said with a smile. "Furthermore, because everyone enters the blissful state, anyone you think of will appear in your dream, and every detail and size of their body will be consistent with reality."

"From this perspective, if we use this blissful time to cultivate mental techniques, wouldn't that be...?" Lin Hui suddenly pondered.

"I knew it!" Hong Ling clapped his hands and laughed. "As expected, you thought of that. It's true. In the realm of bliss, you decide everything yourself, so you'll progress very quickly in cultivating mind-body techniques here."
