My incredible luck and the girl I picked up

"Why are you carrying suitcases?" Leng Yihan asked.

"Isn't it because Kang Meng and I live quite far apart? Both suitcases belong to Kang Meng and me." Xiao Yulin said.

"Who would believe you! This white one is clearly Feixue's! Don't think I don't know!" said Leng Binglan.

"Oh, we're already here, so let's not worry about it so much~ By the way—Jihan, do you think our outfits look good?" Feixue said, standing up and spinning around on the spot.

"If you fall down and break anything, I'll fight you to the death," Leng Yihan said coldly.

"Oh, no way." Even though she said that, Feixue still sat down, afraid that she might accidentally break something.

By the way, something sad happened. During the ten-odd days, Leng Yihan and Leng Binglan logged back into the game. At that time, it was the ranked ladder, and the two of them, who hadn't played for a long time, had fallen out of the God Ranking. Then, they did something ruthless. They took revenge on the two guys who had knocked them down, Xiao Yulin and Tianhuo, who were ranked first and second on the God Ranking, and won.

This was a complete reversal; the two of them fell out of the God Ranking and only barely managed to climb back into the top fifty last week...

"Alright... I'll go into the game now, you guys continue." Leng Yihan got up and left.

"Huh?! Aren't you going to give any feedback?!"

"My assessment is simply that you shouldn't break anything in my house..."

-

Rewinding to the moment they emerged from the girl's instance in the villa, the two immediately abandoned Feixue and headed to the Mirror Image of the Demon Palace, handing the ring to Tianyue.

After receiving the ring, Tianyue immediately performed a ritual and then handed it to Leng Yihan, instructing him to wear it.

Leng Yihan had no idea what the ring was for. There were no notes or anything like that, and even the name was an ominous one: "The Ring That Can Save Your Life or Take Your Life"...

"Next, I suggest you find some strong players who are trustworthy and know about the other world to team up with. Then you'll have to go back to an old place."

"Where is it?"

"Our hometown..."

-

Leng Yihan, Leng Binglan, Xiao Yulin, Feixue, and Kang Meng—five people in total. And the last one to arrive late was—

"Hello everyone." A person with the ID "Otaku Welfare Society" who was very familiar with foreign trade greeted the five people.

"...I asked you to find someone who could come, but the person you found...it's amazing that you could take time out of your busy schedule to play games with us..." Leng Yihan complained.

The visitor was none other than Yi Tianzhai, the leader of the Sun and Moon Alliance, which was tasked with eliminating the demons.

"And the name is so interesting too." Leng Yihan's complaints were doubled.

"Alright, enough chit-chat. I'm also curious about your situation, so I'm happy to take the time to go with you. As for the account... you can check out my equipment yourself." Yi Tianzhai said confidently, and Leng Yihan opened the equipment list to take a look—wow, a full set of top-tier gear.

"You got it from your own men, right?"

“That’s right!” Yi Tianzhai readily admitted.

How dare you say that with such self-righteousness...

"Don't worry about the technical skills, I'll do my best." Leng Yihan was quite confident in Yi Tianzhai, being the leader of an alliance; he probably wouldn't make empty promises... Besides, this account was level 80...

"I'll take the other portion," Leng Yihan said.

The group had already memorized the route to the Dreamland, and they left the city with ease. They arrived at the elevator, and the elevator opened shortly after Leng Yihan pressed the button.

"They're inside?" Leng Binglan asked.

“Nonsense…” Leng Yihan rolled her eyes, even though she knew Leng Binglan was worried that he might be too nervous.

After all, the place they were going to next was one they had visited once before in the previous Oracle Competition—the Shattered World.

This time, I'll have to face Ning Yue'er again...

I guess I'll continue playing my game again this time...

This time... will we be able to successfully obtain a way to save Lin Yin...?

Is it really... possible?

“This is an extremely long dungeon, so you all need to be prepared to stay up all night,” Leng Yihan said, turning to the five of them.

"No problem, I was prepared for you guys to finish quickly while I want to play all night!" It's hard to believe that these are the words of the leader of an alliance.

"Let's go in then." Leng Yihan said and stepped into the elevator. After everyone was inside, he pressed the easiest difficulty level as Tian Yue had instructed.

Although everyone found it strange, they didn't say much. After all, everyone, including Feixue, had some understanding of the supernatural, and perhaps Leng Yihan had taught him something to do this. (Feixue was also affected... By the way, I know you want to know where Luoxue went? She went back to the country first because of some family matters and wasn't at Leng Yihan's house.)

Welcome back to my world... Kanda Ximeng, Leng Binglan, and...

"Leng.Yi.Han—"

235 Escape from Death (1)

"Leng.Yi.Han—"

The voice rang in Leng Yihan's ear. Without any intention of running away, Leng Yihan activated the first aid for the sword Yukiichi without hesitation.

"Crack!" The moment the ice block appeared, a crack appeared on it. Then, an unstoppable punch shattered the ice block, and Leng Yihan was sent flying, landing on the ground more than ten meters away. She rolled a few times, rolled over, and endured the pain to get up.

"Run!" Leng Yihan shouted as soon as she got up. Before anyone could react, they all scattered and ran away.

"Hmph, you three can stay. I have no interest in the other three," the Demon King sneered. Leng Yihan struggled to her feet, her health bar reduced to only 19% after that punch...

“Demon King… Long time no see…” Leng Binglan rushed to Leng Yihan’s side, glaring at the Demon King through gritted teeth.

The Demon King didn't make a move; he simply watched the six people gather together, a hint of disdain in his smile.

"I wasn't at my peak last time, which is why you were able to escape. Do you think you can get away this time? By the way, you're not even qualified to play chess with me, so your game... is already over." The Demon King said calmly, the six of them like lambs to the slaughter.

Leng Yihan quickly surveyed her surroundings. She was in an open space, a space she recognized as the one where she had met Ning Yue'er the last time she came here.

The main questline has been refreshed.

[Retrieve the secret technique.]

"I'm curious... what method do you have to escape from me this time..." The Demon King slowly stepped forward, straightened his clothes, and casually drew a knife from mid-air.

"Go...you all go! Go to the Forest of the Vanished Demons!!!" Seeing the Demon King disappear from Leng Yihan's sight, Leng Yihan immediately shouted, using her divine possession ability to turn around and parry the Demon King's attack with her sword.

"Clang—" The sound of the blade almost deafened Leng Yihan's ears, and the immense force from the Demon King Blade sent Leng Yihan flying.

"Brother!!!" Leng Binglan shouted, trying to rush forward.

"Get out of here!!!" Leng Yihan didn't care about anything anymore and directly cursed Leng Binglan. The Demon King seemed not to see anyone else and rushed straight at Leng Yihan, slashing at her with his knife again.

"Damn it!!!" He unleashed a sword strike, but it was useless. The power of divine possession seemed utterly laughable before the Demon King. His hand gripping the sword went limp, as if it had snapped...

He quickly regained his breath and restored his right hand, but the tip of the knife had already pierced through Leng Yihan's body.

"Pfft..." A mouthful of blood spurted from Leng Yihan's mouth and landed on the Demon King's blade.

"Does it hurt a lot?" The Demon King's words were undoubtedly sarcastic. Leng Yihan raised her head and looked at the Demon King with resentment.

“Demon King…you are…such a good person…” Leng Yihan.

"Thank you for your compliment." The Demon King drew his sword and slashed at Leng Yihan's head.

"Duang!" The Demon King's expression changed as his blade struck a golden shield, preventing him from advancing any further.

The sound of blades slicing through the air cut across the sky. The Demon King easily dodged Leng Binglan's sudden attack and sent her flying with a spinning kick.

"Pfft..." Leng Binglan rolled over several times before collapsing to the ground, her body trembling.

The Demon King didn't make a move, but instead looked at Leng Yihan's right hand with an uncertain expression, at the ring she was wearing...

"Where did you get this ring from?" The Demon King's voice was deep.

"Why...why should I tell you!" With the help of recovering her breath, Leng Yihan's knife wound had almost healed. She raised her head and said through gritted teeth.

The Demon King frowned: "I'm telling you, you'd better confess honestly, and then I might let you die a little more easily."

"You...you're dreaming!" Leng Yihan suddenly lunged forward, thrusting her blade at the Demon King. The Demon King easily caught Leng Yihan's sword with his free hand. Seeing this, Leng Yihan didn't hesitate to activate her weapon-switching skill, but...

A tremendous force gripped Leng Yihan's katana tightly, and no matter what he did, he couldn't pull it out.

"How could this be..." Leng Yihan was shocked, a chill creeping up her spine.

"You think the same move will work on me the second time? Before, I was in the transformation period, so it was not surprising that Tianyue's power could suppress me. But now, I have surpassed her, so how could her moves work on me?" The Demon King disdainfully threw Leng Yihan away. Leng Yihan rolled several times before she could barely get up.

"I'll ask you one more time: where did you get your ring from?" The Demon King stepped forward, pressing him for an answer.

"You guys! Run now!!!" Leng Yihan didn't answer the Demon King's question, but shouted at the other five people.

Damn... how did we run into the Demon King right at the beginning... This is definitely unexpected...

“If you don’t answer my question, I’ll kill them.” The Demon King said, raising his sword towards Leng Binglan and the other four.

"No! I said... but you have to let them go first!" Leng Yihan said hurriedly. Upon hearing this, the Demon King did not refuse but nodded.

“Yes,” the Demon King said.

Is this guy... stupid... or genuinely interested in this ring... or perhaps... he's absolutely certain he can get them back...?

Watching the five people walk away, Leng Binglan, though unwilling, had no choice but to follow them, supported by four odd people. (Kang Mengshilu)

"Now, tell me," the Demon King said after their figures disappeared from Leng Yihan's sight.

"Heh... Your lover is dead, isn't he..." Leng Yihan laughed mockingly.

"..." Leng Yihan could see that the Demon King's hand holding the knife trembled.

"Do you know... that she died because you killed her..." Leng Yihan continued.

"I know." Unexpectedly, the Demon King answered him like this, "Of course I know. The moment I killed Bai Xiuyue, I knew exactly what had happened between you, Leng Yihan, and Lu Youmei."

"Ha... So you actually found out... How could you be so heartless and ungrateful..." Leng Yihan said sarcastically.

"After killing her, I used my last bit of power to preserve her soul, but she still fell into a deep sleep because of me. I feel guilty because she might have fallen into an eternal slumber because of me and never woke up again," the Demon King said.

Leng Yihan knew without even thinking that a "but" would definitely follow this.

"But... during my plundering of so many worlds, I already possessed a secret method to awaken souls. Through my own efforts, I have finally developed a secret method that can awaken her, and I have almost collected the necessary materials." The Demon King's voice remained as cold as ever.
