Chapter 172 Ancient Dragon Bloodline
Memories of the past came flooding back like a tidal wave.
Gu Jia rushed into Lu Changsheng's arms, and crystal tears fell down her cheeks, like pearls with broken strings. Gradually the master's clothes got wet.
Lu Changsheng gently patted Gu Jia's back and hummed the tuneless song just like he did when he coaxed his apprentice to sleep.
The joy of reunion did not last long.
Gu Jia seemed to have thought of something and jumped up.
"Master, that's not right."
"Why are you here?"
"What about her?"
Gu Jia was so nervous that she was a little incoherent. Her two little hands were grabbing randomly in the air, but couldn't hold anything.
She had already remembered that the nightmare in her dream had already come into reality.
"Master..." Gu Jia's voice was trembling. She didn't know how to face her master.
From the moment the demonic energy of Sun City erupted, the two souls in the body have been constantly fighting for control of the body.
And Gu Jia's strength is far inferior to that of the demon clan. Every time she wants to wake up, she can only block the memory of Lu Changsheng before she can barely regain consciousness.
Otherwise, the demon soul in her body would never let her out to seek the master's protection.
At this moment, the cold soul sensed the restoration of Gu Jia's memory and once again tried to seize control of the body.
"Master..."
"I am..."
Gu Jia's voice was trembling, and his eyes glowed red uncontrollably.
Lu Changsheng shook his head gently and said softly, "I've always known it."
Gu Jia was startled.
She stared at Lu Changsheng blankly, with panic and nervousness in her eyes. Her whole body subconsciously leaned against the corner, but she still couldn't stop trembling.
Cold sweat fell down his back, making the already cold wall even colder.
"I knew it when we moved to Yaoguang City." Lu Changsheng grabbed a strange red and black mask from the void and said slowly.
"Master has been thinking of ways to solve this problem..."
Lu Changsheng slowly put the mask given by Ying Tian on Gu Jia's face.
"Fortunately, I finally found a way."
The cold touch made Gu Jia shiver slightly, but the red and black mask quickly followed the skin on her face and merged into her face, leaving no trace.
"Master...how did you know?" Gu Jia stammered before she could recover from the shock.
As soon as you woke up, the dog system reminded me.
Lu Changsheng cursed in his heart and silently checked the system interface.
【Apprentice No. 001】
[Name: Gu Jia]
【Awakened Demon Race】
"Jia'er, don't worry, it will be fine in a while. Master will take you later..."
Before Lu Changsheng finished speaking, a surge of pressure came from the void.
The huge force blew him into the corner instantly. If the [God Spirit] automatic guardian hadn't offset most of the impact, the aftermath of this pressure would have knocked him out of the Shadow Moon Pavilion headquarters.
Damn it!
Boss, are you saving people or killing people? !
Lu Changsheng's eyes instantly turned red, [Netherworld Fire] exploded all over his body, and [Rage of Revenge] was also activated directly.
But then, he took no further action.
Even the entire Yaoguang City felt this sky-high pressure, but Gu Jia, who was at the center of the pressure, did not suffer any harm at all.
She was frozen in that moment as if she was under a freezing spell.
Even the flying hair on his forehead stopped strangely in the air.
Silks of black smoke emerged from Gu Jia's body. As soon as his head appeared, it was completely purified.
Whether it was an illusion or not, Lu Changsheng seemed to hear the sound of a girl wailing in pain.
The voice was almost exactly the same as that of his apprentice.
It made him nervous again.
That coercion was like a powerful spotlight, quickly dissolving the black smoke in Gu Jia's body without damaging the body at all.
The power of the method made Lu Changsheng couldn't help but marvel.
The last ray of demonic power concentrated in Gu Jia's eyes.
The scarlet and eerie red light lit up for the last time.
After that, it quickly dimmed.
Until it disappears.
Instead, there was a pair of golden pupils.
Those beautiful eyes are like the first ray of sunlight breaking through the clouds at dawn, spilling the tenderness and brilliance of the world.
The information about [The Awakened Demon Race] in the system was wiped away like the words on a blackboard.
When he appeared again, he became...
[Ancient dragon bloodline, first-level awakener. Power level: No level. Type: Change System]
Looking at the long string of suffixes, Lu Changsheng was confused.
What's going on?
Before he could take a closer look, a series of system prompts came down again.
【bite】
[Congratulations to the host]
[Apprentice number 001 Gu Jia, the innate skill of the equipment has broken through to LV5]
[Innate skill LV5 strength is: 4 times the power of the ancient dragon]
[Apprentice number 001 Gu Jia, the equipped Soul Gathering Stack has broken through to LV4]
[The strength of Juling stack LV4 is: each attack increases by 30%]
[The host automatically shares progress, and the innate skill has been upgraded to LV6]
[The strength of Innate Skill LV6 is: 10 times the power of the ancient dragon]
[The host automatically shares progress, and the Juling stack has been upgraded to LV5]
[The strength of the LV5 Soul Gathering Skill is: 50% increase in each attack]
The Xiantian Skill has been upgraded, but why has the multiplier not changed? Only the attribute has changed from demonic power to ancient dragon power?
Dog system, did you swallow my reward?
What does the ancient dragon power mean?
[Literal meaning]
Fuck you! !
The pressure from the sky disappeared, and Gu Jia, who lost her support, suddenly fell to the ground and gasped violently.
In the short moment just now, she seemed to have gone through her life again.
A baby born in the dark abyss, a nameless child, an orphan taken in by someone, a helpless girl.
And the nightmare that followed her like a ghost in the depths of her soul.
When her consciousness returned, the crazy mumbling in her head, the faint uneasiness in the depths of her soul, the scarlet eyes that she could see when she closed her eyes...
All disappeared completely with the miraculous power.
Lu Changsheng had no time to study new abilities. He rushed to his apprentice and asked nervously, "Jia'er, are you okay?"
"If you feel uncomfortable, Master can get you some elixirs..."
Lu Changsheng stopped talking.
He saw the golden light in his apprentice's pupils slowly fade away, and the familiar little face was once again covered with that sweet smile.
"Master, I'm back."
Lu Changsheng exhaled a long breath.
After a long pause.
He said, "It's good to be back."
"Let's go home."
...
Lu Changsheng took his apprentice's hand and walked out of the Shadow Moon Pavilion. The guards who were everywhere seemed to be blind and watched him leave from the gate.
A new guard saw Lu Changsheng taking someone away from the prison with the highest defense level, and subconsciously reached for the sword on his waist, but was held down by the senior beside him with one hand.
"Senior? The prisoner is going to run away! What are you doing?"
The senior turned his head in the opposite direction and said with a relaxed look, "What prisoner? What ran away? I was blind today, I didn't see anything."
The new guard looked at the senior and lied with his eyes open. Just as he was about to refute something, he was interrupted rudely.
"The order from above has already hinted very clearly. Nothing happened in Yingyue Pavilion today. Do you understand?"
"I will retire in a few years. If you are in a hurry to reincarnate, don't drag me with you!"
The new guard shrank his neck in fear. When he looked back, he could no longer see the figures of Lu Changsheng and Gu Jia.
...
"Master, if we leave like this, it will cause trouble..." Gu Jia said a little worriedly.
"Oh, by the way, we have to come again tomorrow. Master has to repay a favor." Lu Changsheng looked indifferent.
"Master, I have lost a lot of memory recently. I am a little scared. What if I did something bad at that time?"
Lu Changsheng habitually touched his apprentice's head, "Don't worry, Master knows that you will never be a bad person."
"Master will explain to them."
"Master is best at winning people over with virtue."
