Chen Tian walked out of the city. He had obtained the Floating Dust Sword here. Next, he only needed the Moonlit Star Sand from Ling's side to complete the quest. Then Chen Ling would be qualified to participate in combat. Chen Tian sensed Chen Ling's location. In the Divine Spirit Realm, Chen Tian could easily find Chen Ling's location. His eyes closed and then opened again. A teleportation portal condensed beside Chen Tian. Chen Tian already knew Chen Ling's location and was rushing over.
On Chen Ling's side, she was looking at the lake in front of her, feeling troubled. She truly had no way to deal with the lake before her. The Moonlit Star Sand was beneath this lake. The surface of the lake was adorned with starlight, and within the lake, one could see a half-moon. This lake was called Moonlight Lake, one of the tourist attractions of the Era of Time and Space, and it was very beautiful. Most of the players around were female, but in their eyes, they were full of hostility towards Chen Ling. Chen Ling was too beautiful; simply standing there made all the surrounding scenery converge on her.
The aura she possessed attracted all the male players. As the first elf to be born in the world, Chen Ling's ethereal aura was beyond the reach of any living being. Chen Ling looked at Moonlight Lake indifferently, a hint of sorrow appearing on her lips as she said, "What should I do? It seems I can only wait for Brother Chen Tian. Otherwise, I really can't do anything about the Moonlit Star Sand."
Moonlight Lake, to put it bluntly, was a forbidden lake in the Divine Spirit Realm. The moon resided within the lake. It would only rise from the lake on special nights to take the place of the sun and govern the night. On ordinary nights, the moon would not appear. There were dangers beneath the Moon Lake. Even Chen Ling dared not take the risk. Moonlight Lake was called a forbidden place because entering it would expose the body to the moonlight. If one was not careful, they would be trapped within Moonlight Lake and unable to leave. In Chen Ling's knowledge, only one person had ever walked out of Moonlight Lake, and that person was Chen Tian. Chen Ling could only wait for Chen Tian to arrive.
A young man approached Chen Ling. The youth had a handsome and delicate face, wore a stylish gentleman's suit, and held a beautiful flower as he walked towards Chen Ling. He bowed before Chen Ling and said, "Beautiful lady, may I watch this beautiful scenery with you?"
"Not interested. Please leave."
Chen Ling spoke coldly. How could she not know the other party's intentions? She felt disgusted by such people. The other party was merely lusting after her beauty. Chen Ling ignored him. Seeing that Chen Ling refused him, the young man did not leave as Chen Ling had requested and spoke again, "It's so boring for a beauty to watch this scenery alone. Wouldn't it be nice to have someone accompany you? Look, all the gazes here are on you. Having one more person will give you a sense of security."
"I may not be talented, but I can protect a beauty."
"Your intentions are as dirty as your heart. Scram!"
Chen Ling's expression turned cold, and her voice was filled with ice and frost. The young man's face changed drastically. He let out a hum and left. The other party looked down on him, and he would make Chen Ling taste his methods. Chen Ling saw the malevolence in the other party's eyes and knew he was up to no good. Chen Ling was not afraid. Her current concern was how to contact Brother Chen Tian. The Moonlit Star Sand was right before her eyes, yet she couldn't get it. This was truly troublesome.
Among the trees on Chen Ling's side, a group of people seemed to be waiting for someone. The young man who had pursued Chen Ling slowly walked over. Three or four people looked at the young man. One of them spoke, "Young master, how is it? Did you get her?"
"Of course. My young master's actions are always successful."
"Then we wish the young master success in obtaining such a beauty."
A group of people fawned over him, which made the young man even more furious. He then shouted, "I didn't get her. That beauty seems rather proud. You guys help me teach her a lesson. Remember not to hurt her too badly. She is an important person for me to level up."
"Yes, young master."
Three or four people walked towards Chen Ling. The young man smirked. He wasn't interested in Chen Ling's beauty, but in a skill he had acquired, which could turn beautiful things into his own experience points. This skill was something he had created himself and could only be used once in his lifetime. This time, he had his sights set on Chen Ling's beauty. She was too beautiful. He wondered how much his level would increase if he took away this beauty.
The more beautiful something was, the higher the level increase. This was also why this self-created skill had never been used before. The moment he saw Chen Ling, he knew nothing could compare to this beauty. Let this beauty become experience points for his level up.
This was his plan from the beginning. Before, he had approached Chen Ling to touch her. As long as he touched her cheek, the self-created skill might be triggered. This skill required contact with the beautiful part of the target. Beauty was on the face, and this skill required his hands to be on Chen Ling's cheeks to take effect. The trigger condition for this skill was contact.
Chen Ling was still waiting for Chen Tian's arrival. Chen Ling sensed three or four figures approaching her. She felt their hostility. As the first elf born in the world, her perception of auras was very keen. The approaching individuals meant trouble, especially with the wicked smile of the young man who had just left. She didn't need to think to know they were sent by him.
The three or four people surrounded Chen Ling. The leading, lecherous young man chuckled, "Beautiful lady, why don't you come with us? Our young master is waiting for you."
"Beautiful lady, you wouldn't want to suffer any pain, would you? Be sensible and come with us obediently."
The four looked at Chen Ling's beauty. Beautiful, too beautiful. They had never seen such a beauty. Outside the game, she would be a beauty capable of toppling cities. Their eyes shone with greed. Chen Ling felt disgusted.
A figure appeared behind Chen Ling and said, "What if they don't go with you?"
"Who dares to interfere when we brothers are handling business?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Chen Ling's tense emotions subsided. Chen Ling needed a weapon as a medium for combat. Without a weapon, Chen Ling was no different from an ordinary person, possessing only the aura and presence of an elf, which had no effect on these players. They were not beings of the Divine Spirit Realm. Chen Tian's arrival made Chen Ling feel safe.
"You want to make a move on my sister, and you didn't ask me first?"
Chen Tian's figure instantly appeared beside Chen Ling. The four couldn't even see how Chen Tian appeared. Such speed! They frantically checked Chen Tian's level interface, but not a single piece of information could be displayed; the attribute list was blacked out.
"How is this possible? How can such a player exist?"
"Brother, this guy's level seems much higher than ours. We can't check his attributes!"
"What should we do?"
"Quick retreat! Let's go find the young master."
The three exchanged thoughts mentally. Having worked together for many years, the four had their own ways of communicating. Just as they were about to leave, Chen Tian opened his palm and slapped forward. The four people were frozen like logs, unable to move.
Chen Tian approached them and said indifferently, "You want to make a move on my sister and still expect to leave unharmed? You're dreaming. Die."
Chen Tian did not erase their existence. These were normal players. He would only act this way towards evil spirits. The four people turned into starlight and vanished. They would respawn at the resurrection point.
Meanwhile, Kuang Feng Zi Ruo was still fantasizing about the level increase he would get after obtaining that beauty in the woods. However, the four people's figures were nowhere to be seen. He waited in the woods for a full half hour.
"What the hell, four people can't even handle one little girl?"
He roared and walked towards Chen Ling's direction. It shouldn't be taking this long!
The strength and level of the four of them should be more than enough to handle a little girl. It didn't make sense. He had to go see what happened.
Chen Ling and Chen Tian had not entered Moonlight Lake during this half hour. Chen Tian had something to do. They stood on the lake, waiting. Kuang Feng Zi Ruo slowly walked over. When he saw only Chen Tian and Chen Ling, he directly questioned them, "Kid, beauty, did you see four people walking this way together?"
"Dead."
Chen Tian replied coldly. Kuang Feng Zi Ruo heard this and his face turned grim. He looked at Chen Ling and Chen Tian and said, "You dare to kill my people! You're courting death!"
Chen Tian looked at Kuang Feng Zi Ruo. His level was only level ninety-eight of the Blue Realm. And he still wanted to make a move on Chen Ling? If it weren't for Ling'er not having a weapon and being unable to fight, a person like this would have been annihilated by her long ago.
Seeing that Chen Tian and Chen Ling didn't take him seriously, Kuang Feng Zi Ruo became even more enraged. They didn't even glance at him, completely ignoring him. This was contempt, an insult.
"Kid, I'll let you taste my power."
Kuang Feng Zi Ruo was blinded by rage, and he lunged forward in a fury. The surrounding players were all watching the spectacle of Kuang Feng Zi Ruo's actions.
Some people, after seeing Chen Tian effortlessly kill the previous four, looked at Kuang Feng Zi Ruo as if he were an idiot.
Unfortunately, Kuang Feng Zi Ruo was blinded by rage and did not observe carefully.
He threw out a punch, condensing all his strength. His entire body was covered in armor. The silver-white armor increased his strength. A phantom of a white tiger was condensed on his fist. The white tiger phantom roared, opening its bloody maw to swallow Chen Tian and Chen Ling.
Facing this punch, Chen Tian remained unfazed. The punch was blocked by a white barrier before it even reached Chen Tian's body. An invisible barrier. The punch could not advance.
Kuang Feng Zi Ruo was shocked. Just as he was about to speak, his body dissolved into countless streaks of starlight and vanished.
He was killed by the force of his own attack. Chen Tian had used a Counter Barrier, a barrier that reflected the opponent's strength. It could be said that Kuang Feng Zi Ruo was killed by his own skill.
Chen Tian did not make a move.
