Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei's Dimensional Gate

"Not long ago," Lu Mingfei replied vaguely.

"If you were to face Zhang Chulan, what would your chances of winning be?" Canglong had been curious about this question. Only half a day had passed between the time Zhang Chulan uttered those words and Lu Mingfei displaying his formidable strength.

“Let’s split it 30/70,” Lu Mingfei replied. “He gets 30%, I get 70%.

If Zhang Chulan were to use the Twelve Labors Formation at full power, he might have been defeated even faster. He was simply relying on his powerful Qi to support the Golden Light Mantra, and his strength fluctuated to about this level.

Upon hearing this, Canglong's eyes lit up instantly. He immediately took out his phone, logged into his website, and changed the odds for Lu Mingfei and Zhang Chulan.

Wang Ergou pondered for a moment and then asked, "How much do you know about the relationship between Zhang Chulan and the Qi Source Flow?"

"You're not some kind of Ten Elders or some other force, are you?" Lu Mingfei asked curiously. He wasn't the naive person he used to be who would answer so easily anymore.

Zhang Chulan, that little wall lamp, is usually very cunning and often tries to trick him, which has made him more wary.

“In terms of identity, we are indeed related to the Ten Elders. Lu Linglong is the great-granddaughter of Lu Jin, one of the Ten Elders, and Roulong is an underling of the intelligence chief. The others are more or less related to the Ten Elders,” Wang Ergou explained.

"However, those are things for the older generation. What does it have to do with us younger generation? We are just a small group that we formed spontaneously. We have different abilities and personalities. We come from all over the world and talk about whatever interesting things happen to us."

Wang Ergou's statement was entirely truthful; Bai Shixue, Zhi Jinhua, and Canglong, among others, all possessed different abilities.

Despite his less-than-stellar observation skills, Lu Mingfei was still able to tell that the other person was telling the truth.

Lu Mingfei said carefully, "I only know that the Qi Body Source Flow is the ultimate technique. As for Zhang Chulan, I don't know much about him. He usually has no bottom line and I don't know how many of his ramblings are true."

Wang Ergou suddenly became serious, and asked with a stern face, "Is the virginity mark on Zhang Chulan real? Have you seen it with your own eyes?"

"...?"

As soon as Wang Ergou asked the question, Lu Linglong, Zhi Jinhua, Bai Shixue, and the others turned around curiously, all staring at Lu Mingfei with expectant eyes.

Lu Mingfei felt several gazes on him.

This map of the Yan Kingdom seems a bit short.

"This is the real reason you called me here, isn't it? Right!" Lu Mingfei emphasized.

"Don't you know what the 'virginity mark' means?" Wang Ergou asked in surprise, then said seriously, "That's the legendary 'virginity mark'! There are only a handful of people in all of China who have it, even rarer than giant pandas. It's normal to be curious!"

"Don't you guys even think about where the virginity mark is engraved? Look at other people's marks, are you guys really without any problems?" Lu Mingfei retorted.

He now doubts the mental state of this small group. Are there no normal people among the younger generation of superhumans?

It's one thing to deal with Wang Ergou, Canglong, and the others, but what's going on with Lu Linglong, Zhi Jinhua, and Bai Shixue?

Are all the younger generation in the world of supernatural beings this unrestrained?

Lu Mingfei's words plunged the room into silence.

Knowing that this topic couldn't be continued, Wang Ergou had no choice but to awkwardly change the subject.

"Um, where did you learn the Golden Light Mantra?"

"Zhang Chulan taught me."

“…Ah.” Wang Ergou felt that this topic could not be continued.

He began to doubt whether he was a conversation killer.

"Meat Dragon, are you sure your odds are correct? How come Zhang Chulan's odds are so outrageous?" asked the money-grubbing Bai Shixue.

"Hey, girl, you don't understand. It's because Zhang Chulan's first match was so amazing. It's Battle Through the Heavens, and he's shameless. Nobody is optimistic about him, and his opponent is the extremely difficult 'Azure Talisman God,' so it's naturally a bit outrageous," Canglong explained.

"Odds? You're still opening a betting platform at this juncture?" Liu Yanyan asked curiously.

She was just worrying about not having a way to make money when someone came along to offer her a solution.

“Yes, it’s Roulong’s own website…” Bai Shixue explained.

Liu Yanyan understood, and suddenly remembered that Feng Baobao had asked Zhang Chulan to bury their competitor. It seemed that only he and Lu Mingfei knew this inside information.

"What did you say were the odds for Zhang Chulan?"

“The odds are currently 1 to 50, but if he does something even more outrageous, the odds could be even higher,” Canglong explained.

“I’m betting 500 on Lu Mingfei and 250 on Zhang Chulan,” Liu Yanyan said.

She had nearly a thousand dollars, and she took out so much money at once, hoping that Zhang Chulan would win. As for Lu Mingfei's victory, it was basically a foregone conclusion, unless he encountered Zhang Chulan.

"Is that all?" Canglong asked.

"Don't you know that a little gambling is harmless, but excessive gambling is harmful to your health?" Liu Yanyan retorted.

“That’s true, but betting on Zhang Chulan might be a waste.” Canglong quickly made a few moves, then looked at Lu Mingfei, as if asking, “What about you?”

Lu Mingfei thought about it and realized that he also wanted to bet everything on Zhang Chulan. He thought that his savings would multiply dozens of times and he wouldn't have to work for Xu Si anymore. He could then travel around and enjoy life to the fullest.

But... the problem is that he can't bet Zhang Chulan right now.

"I'm quite confident in myself, so I'll start with just a little bit." Lu Mingfei carefully placed a few hundred bets, after all, he was still a contestant, and there were some things that were inconvenient for him to do.

Once he's no longer a contestant, he'll step back and heavily invest in Zhang Chulan, doubling his personal fortune.

"You two really do look like a married couple, even though you're only making a few hundred here and there," Wang Ergou said, looking at Liu Yanyan and Lu Mingfei.

"A little gambling is harmless, but excessive gambling is harmful," Lu Mingfei repeated Liu Yanyan's words.

"Look, they look even more like a married couple now."

As Lu Linglong and the others watched Lu Mingfei repeat Liu Yanyan's words, their gazes towards Liu Yanyan were filled with envy.

Wang Ergou nodded at Lu Mingfei with an expression of someone who had been through it all, and said seriously, "Cherish it."

The group chatted idly about various fictitious stories from the world of supernatural beings.

Lu Mingfei listened to them chat about interesting things in the world of superhumans. Although they called themselves superhumans, they were full of everyday life, as if their abilities were just something to help them, and life was what mattered.

We chatted about this and that until almost midnight.

If everyone didn't have to fight the next day, they definitely would have chatted all night.

The food stall owner squinted and displeased as he saw Lu Mingfei, Lu Linglong, and the others off.

Looking at her savings, which were down to only two digits, Liu Yanyan felt that she might not be able to make ends meet.

He pondered whether or not to let his old man generate some gold coins.

After thinking it over, I decided against it. The Celestial Master's Mansion provides meals, so I can just eat there for a few days.

"Let's go, Mingfei, let's go back together."

"Ah."

Liu Yanyan took Lu Mingfei's hand and walked side by side on the narrow path.

Lu Mingfei hesitated for a moment, then silently grasped Liu Yanyan's hand, took off his coat, and draped it over her back.

"The night is deep, and it's getting a bit chilly."

Under the dim streetlights, the two people's dark shadows stretched longer and longer until they disappeared.

"I won't let you go to the girls' dormitory. After all, you don't want to be seen as a pervert, do you?" Liu Yanyan stopped in front of the guest room prepared by the Celestial Master's Mansion and teased.

"It's just a girls' dormitory, what's the difference between it and a boys' dormitory?" Lu Mingfei replied.

Liu Yanyan released Lu Mingfei's hand, which was slightly damp and sweaty, and took out a tissue from her small bag and handed it to Lu Mingfei.

"Are you that nervous?" Liu Yanyan said, gently wiping the sweat from her hands. She raised an eyebrow and a subtle smile appeared on her lips. "Is this your first time holding a girl's hand?"

Lu Mingfei was somewhat taken aback by the question and stammered as he replied, "Who, who's nervous? I, I was just worried you were cold, so I wanted to warm my hands up."

"If you're worried I'll be cold, bring me a hand warmer next time," Liu Yanyan said casually.

"It's so hot, using a hand warmer isn't really appropriate," Lu Mingfei suddenly realized it was summer.

Liu Yanyan lightly flicked Lu Mingfei's forehead with her finger, listened for a moment, and nodded slightly.

"There's no water, it's just a bit solid," Liu Yanyan replied calmly. "Okay then, see you tomorrow."

Lu Mingfei couldn't help but smile, and gently waved goodbye.

With her hands behind her back, Liu Yanyan swayed gently as she strolled briskly along the gradually returning gravel path.

This silhouette was deeply etched into Lu Mingfei's eyes.

girlfriend......

Lu Mingfei was once so unattainable; he was like a defeated dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy, hoping that someone would look at him, lend him a helping hand, and offer him warmth.

But what did we get in the end?

No matter who it is, anyone can step on their misfortune.

Lu Mingfei turned his head away somewhat dejectedly.

Are happy times always so short?

I just started dating my girlfriend, and we've only been together for a few hours before we have to part ways.

Although it's only a few dozen meters away, and we'll see each other again the next day, which is just a few hours later.

But why does it feel like those few dozen meters are a bottomless chasm, like a loser who can never get his senior sister, or like an ultimate being who can never return to Earth?

Every second that passed, I could feel a tremendous roar in my ears—the sound of my own heartbeat, amplified infinitely at that moment for some reason.

Every movement of his body caused him discomfort, as if these limbs were not his own and he had only temporarily gained control of them.

This immense sense of unease suddenly descended upon him for some unknown reason. He gritted his teeth and patiently shifted his attention, diverting his focus away from these changes.

I had only taken a couple of steps along the gravel path when I felt something scratching at my heart, an unbearable itch spreading throughout my body. I subconsciously turned around to look in Liu Yanyan's direction.

In that instant, all discomfort and unease vanished.

"See you tomorrow..." Liu Yanyan said softly as she stood at the door, then closed the door.

It was a very light sentence, and it was said from a great distance, but Lu Mingfei felt as if the sentence was spoken right next to him.

His heart suddenly began to pound wildly.

Her face was flushed from the rapid flow of blood, and she murmured, "See you tomorrow...see you tomorrow..."

Lu Mingfei didn't know why these three simple words had such great power.

It injected enormous energy into his body, which was extremely lacking in motivation.
