Swallowing the Stars: Sacrifice to Become Stronger, Fiancée is Alluring

Chapter 62 From now on, I'll stay by your side, even if you're alluring.

One hour later, at the Yangzhou City Extreme Club in Mingyue Residential Area.

A huge roar came from outside the door, and a triangular fighter jet slowly landed, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Jiang Lan and Zhuge Tao stood at the door, watching where the fighter jets landed.

After landing, the fighter jet's cabin door opened, and a tall man with a buzz cut, wearing a black top, stepped out.

Following behind the man was a woman dressed in black with a gold mask on her face.

Hong, enchanting.

Zhuge Tao jogged all the way to the vicinity of the fighter jet.

Jiang Lan didn't run away; she simply followed behind Zhuge Tao, walking slowly to the fighter jet.

"Master of the Pavilion." Zhuge Tao bowed his head respectfully.

"Master." Jiang Lan followed suit, but did not bow her head. Instead, she looked at Hong and the alluring woman behind him.

Hong's face was expressionless, but through the mask, Jiang Lan could see that Yao Rao's gaze was very complicated, with a hint of disbelief.

"You're welcome," Hong said, turning his gaze to Jiang Lan. "You've broken through to the planetary level?"

Jiang Lan snapped out of her daze, slightly taken aback, and said, "A planet?"

He certainly knew what a planetary level was, but he couldn't show Hong that he knew.

"The gene source can condense into an independent planet within the dantian. We call such people planetary-level martial artists."

Hong was usually a man of few words, but at this moment he showed rare patience in explaining to Jiang Lan.

"Ah..." Jiang Lan looked like she suddenly realized something. "Yes, when I broke through, a planet-like object appeared in my dantian, made of hexagonal crystals."

A rare smile appeared on Hong's face.

"That's right, what color is the planet?"

"Purple, and its exterior appears to have flickering arcs of electricity."

"Lightning-based?" Hong's smile widened. "Do you know what the specific abilities are?"

Jiang Lan smirked, "Flirting."

Recently, Jiang Lan has tested his special ability more than once and discovered that it is to generate electricity.

If he so desires, the genetic energy within his dantian can be transformed into lightning and released from his body.

As for its power, Jiang Lan has not personally tested it.

"Not bad. Lightning-type abilities are generally quite powerful offensively, and they can also be used for ranged attacks. Looks like you're very lucky."

Jiang Lan nodded upon hearing this; in fact, he also felt that he was quite lucky.

Compared to the five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, earth), lightning is obviously more impressive and also has greater destructive power.

"Come on, try it on me."

"what?"

Jiang Lan was completely bewildered.

Who would have thought that Hong, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, would have such a fetish?

Seemingly guessing what Jiang Lan was thinking, Hong glanced at him indifferently, "Just testing your mettle."

"what……"

Jiang Lan felt somewhat relieved.

After all, he couldn't beat Hong right now, and if Hong really made some unreasonable demands, he really wouldn't be able to refuse.

Raising his head, Jiang Lan solemnly addressed Hong in front of him:

"Master, are you ready?"

"Don't worry, attack with all your might." Hong glanced at Zhuge Tao and Yao Rao, "You two step back a bit, don't get caught in the crossfire."

As soon as Hong spoke, Zhuge Tao immediately and respectfully agreed, then ran off to a great distance.

Yao Rao gave Jiang Lan a deep look, then gracefully retreated more than ten meters away.

Jiang Lan took a deep breath, and the planets that were automatically rotating in his dantian suddenly burst out with a burst of bluish-purple lightning, which flowed along Jiang Lan's body to his arm.

"Watch out!"

Jiang Lan shouted and suddenly a bolt of lightning as thick as a child's arm shot out from his right hand.

The lightning bolt, like a dragon, rushed towards Hong at an extremely fast speed.

"boom!"

The lightning struck Hong's body, producing a loud bang.

Jiang Lan was startled. He himself did not know the power of the lightning, but at this moment it seemed that the power of the lightning was probably exceptionally strong.

Hong's entire body was enveloped in electric light, so intense that it was impossible to see what was happening inside.

Jiang Lan's heart skipped a beat.

There's been no movement for so long, could he have blown up Hong?

If that's the case, then his crime would be very serious, and he might even be wanted globally.

However, Jiang Lan's worries didn't last long. A few seconds later, the lightning that had been wrapped around Hong's body dissipated completely.

Jiang Lan grinned when she saw it clearly.

I was really overthinking it. He's the strongest person in the world right now. It would be unbelievable if he killed me in one go.

Hong was completely unharmed, his clothes were not torn at all, and he looked at Jiang Lan with a satisfied expression.

"Hmm, not bad. That last strike could probably kill an unprotected God of War instantly."

Jiang Lan was somewhat surprised, raised her right hand, and stared at it for a long time.

He could unleash an attack like the one he just made dozens of times if he wanted to.

Does that mean that even the current War God level experts can't get close to him at all?

"Shall we go have a chat?" Hong asked softly.

Jiang Lan readily agreed, "Okay."

Zhuge Tao was quite sensible and immediately said, "I'll lead the way."

……

One minute later, in a quiet room at the Extreme Club.

Hong and Jiang Lan sat facing each other.

"The speed at which your strength has improved has really exceeded my expectations."

Jiang Lan remained silent.

This is beyond imagination. I wonder what Hong would think if he knew that he spent half a month in Kyoto base city.

"Now that you have reached the planetary level, according to the martial arts school's system, you will be granted the position of inspector. You can choose the specific date."

The Inspector General holds a prestigious position and is considered one of the most authoritative figures within the entire Limitless Martial Arts Academy.

Aside from not being able to directly appoint or dismiss inspectors, they can do almost anything they want.

Currently, there are only five people holding the position of Inspector within the entire Limitless Martial Arts Academy.

If Jiang Lan also becomes an inspector, then he will be the sixth.

Jiang Lan thought for a moment, then declined instead of immediately agreeing:

"I've only just broken through and need some time to adjust. Being an inspector... I'll wait a while."

"Sure," Hong said without pressuring, then asked, "Have you been inside the War God Palace?"

Jiang Lan felt somewhat embarrassed.

He had been so busy that he had completely forgotten about the War God Palace.

"No..."

Hong pondered for a moment, then said to Jiang Lan:

"Your progress is too fast, and since you've never been to the War God Palace, there are many things you don't understand yet... How about this, Yao Rao will stay by your side from now on, and he will guide you to understand the things that high-level martial artists need to know."

Before Jiang Lan could speak, Hong continued:

"Yao Rao has been by my side for several years now, and you've been quite good. Plus, you have a connection with Yao Rao, so naturally I won't be the bad guy. However..."
