Chapter 2837: Chapter 2832: Delay Tactics
Just because you are in this mountain, that’s the limitation most people can’t avoid.
Old Master Lu and the other two are certainly spirited, which is comforting, but Fu Qian is not that surprised.
But to be able to clearly recognize this within the Divine Dream?
Breaking through the Knowledge Barrier is the hardest, based on Fu Qian’s experience, this is quite an accomplishment.
And Mr. Kikuchi Sr. not only looks very confident but also has an insightful understanding of the state of the Divine Dream.
"Do you still remember what happened the last time you said those words?"
Even Old Master Lu seemed to agree, although the next moment he didn’t mean to act, just coldly countered with a question.
What happened...
It can be seen that this sentence still has quite an impact, as Kikuchi immediately fell silent.
It’s obviously not that he forgot, but rather he remembered his past path.
Even the same people, the same place, last time they also said to quickly handle it, and then couldn’t clean up the mess when the opportunity was seized against them...
"But that’s a good thing, isn’t it?"
However, his low-key plan fell through, facing Old Master Lu’s excessively impolite tone, Fu Qian stepped forward to defend.
"If I hadn’t seized the opportunity and launched a surprise attack at the time, would you be able to understand the higher realm of Limb Attachment like now?"
And it wasn’t purely an emotional expression, but rather a refutation with facts, attacking the opponent with their own weapon.
...
Even Lu Ming didn’t say a word this time.
It only shows that speaking of distinguishing right from wrong is easy, but truly doing it is too difficult.
According to what they say, the person in front of them, shedding skin with a crackling sound, might even be a benefactor.
But the moment they act, it’s a world of ice and fire, no matter how they appear, it doesn’t seem like they’re here to catch up and release past grievances.
"Your gloves look quite special..."
And finally breaking the awkward silence, the old master’s topic switch was so abrupt that it was even more awkward than before.
"Of course."
Fortunately, Fu Qian didn’t mind playing along, hinting that the other party had an eye for quality.
Of course, the value of this keen eye isn’t truly that high.
After all, first it got larger and then directly faced the previous impact, this lie of Annalise’s was the only piece of clothing left undamaged.
Perhaps other parts were also covered by temporarily manifested armor, and the gloved hand was probably the only part without burn marks.
"Where did you steal this from?"
Unfortunately, Old Master Lu didn’t seem to notice any more mystery, merely taking a closer look and then sneering.
"What do you mean by stealing? This is the matter of legitimate scholars, at most call it borrowing."
The wording was quite inappropriate, recalling the Truth Note he’d read for so long, Fu Qian furrowed his brow slightly to clarify.
"I hope to believe in your explanation... Just, could you undo the changes on your body first?
"This place is becoming unstable, trust me, it’s not going to be good for you either."
Seemingly unable to understand Fu Qian’s words logically, Lu Ming hesitated but chose to agree, cautiously confirming if the Brilliant Tyrant could be undone first.
Kikuchi had already clearly stated earlier that it was destroying the Divine Dream, so there was no need to conceal it anymore.
Although, following the opponent’s style, such a request seemed hard to fulfill without paying a price—
"Sure."
However, seeing the person for three days with fresh eyes, the "slightly improved" Fu Qian actually nodded his head in agreement.
With the Brilliant Tyrant being undone, the body quickly returned to its original form.
...
"You don’t seem to be in a hurry?"
Clearly not expecting things to go so smoothly, Lu Ming glanced aside, making eye contact with Kikuchi.
With that movement, the surrounding tendrils naturally pulled at them, slightly drawing their heads closer.
"Are other people coming in a hurry?"
Old Master Lu’s question seemed a bit abrupt, but observing the amusing scene, Fu Qian casually responded with a question to the question.
He even noticed other parts of the old masters’ limbs, which kept emerging as they spoke.
At one glance, it was as if two not-so-perfect dolls had been crushed and tossed into the same heap of garbage.
Moreover, although the limbs were still sewn together by "living lines," because these lines are essentially the same, it became difficult to distinguish between the two, moving one affects the other.
From this angle, did Old Master Lu and others indeed reach a different Limb Attachment state?
No end to learning, at that moment Fu Qian expressed having gained something again.
As for the time issue mentioned by the other, theoretically, it’s definitely rushed.
Don’t forget that before coming in, there was a very distinct warning.
Master repeatedly warned him that 15 minutes is the limit for exploration, exceeding this time would surpass his protection capacity, and there would be no chance for further collaboration—although Fu Qian didn’t heed his warning.
This journey, acting as an Academy Professor, indeed, but who said an Academy Professor can’t seek destruction?
Fu Qian didn’t think the Master was purely trying to scare him, just didn’t intend to act within the safe zone drawn by the Master, and was fully responsible for this.
"How do you know other people have entered?"
Sadly, Old Master Lu was stuck in his thinking inertia, responding with a question again.
"Then how do you know I’m in a hurry?"
Almost like showing off, Fu Qian continued to counter-question casually.
This...
Sure enough, the other party fell silent again.
"Is it because of this?"
But Fu Qian didn’t let him off, raised his left hand and showed it.
The skin and flesh that had obviously healed, still held the eerie blue splashed on before, and even seeped deeper into the bone, resembling a tattoo that couldn’t be washed off.
...
These days, even chatting costs money, not to mention chatting with an adversary.
Firstly, Old Master Lu had this much patience for chatting until now, clearly not to resolve misunderstandings and shake hands in reconciliation.
Secondly, using words to persuade him to undo the Brilliant Tyrant was clearly an unexpected joy for him.
If these weren’t the objective, what was he wasting time for—wasting time.
Some things are just too easy to conclude with the method of elimination.
Even if the current change in color on his body was not apparent, even if the old master had previously urged to hurry and leave.
In Fu Qian’s view, Lu Ming and Kikuchi were still quite likely waiting in this manner for himself to be further eroded.
They absolutely didn’t want him to leave quickly.
Of course, there’s no need to accuse them of being sinister because of this.
Never forget the situation from the old master’s perspective.
Originally dining and singing, and diligently researching the dismantling Limb Attachment grand law, suddenly, the fierce bandit from years ago bursts in again, even raising a hand to destroy.
This time, if all means aren’t exhausted, are they truly prepared to smile and forget past enmities?
