Chapter 177 Massacre in the ghost lands Part 5
Even though she was at the top, he definitely had all the power. The rascal just wouldn't stop grinning.
Luckily for her, he didn't torture her much longer. But his previous playful demonic expression slowly faded away and a complicated expression replaced it.
Su Lin subconsciously touched his disappearing smile and asked anxiously. "What happened?"
Shouldn't this guy be milking this situation till like the year's end?!
Surprising her, Luther abruptly sat up straight and leaned in closer to rest his head on her chest. "Can you tell me about yourself, Su Lin?"
"Huh? uh? About me?" Su Lin stuttered.
"Anything will do. Just something small."
Su Lin smiled. She looked at the guy's smooth chiseled back and couldn't help but run her fingers down his spine.
This guy... He was always thinking about her... always worrying about her... Did he really love her so much? Su Lin was tempted to try and break his flawless heart.
She thought for a while before answering. "I am not from your world. This body doesn't even belong to me." She very slowly enunciated and dipped her head down.
Damn it. She was already regretting telling him this. How will he react? Will he think that she is a monster? Will he stop loving her entirely?
Su Lin's heart thrummed loudly like hailstones pelting on a windowpane. Damn it. I should have just kept my mouth shut. She bit her lips unwillingly.
But the next instant, the serious look on Luther's face completely disappeared.
"You? You are not lying to me right?? Are you for real? Are you like a ghost from hell? Or are you an alien parasite that can invade someone's body??"
Luther kept chattering on. For some reason, he seemed to be more excited than anything else. Su Lin looked at him like she was looking at a mad man.
What weird fetishes did this guy have? Before his imagination could run any further, she decisively reined him back.
"Excuse me. I am just like you, a human in all aspects. Except for the fact that our world is filled to the brim with spiritual energy, and we rely on it for almost everything."
A world of cultivation and bloodshed? Luther shuddered at the very thought of it.
"So how did you get here?" Luther curiously asked.
The woman who was patiently explaining him suddenly became silent. There was a subtle sorrow in her silence.
Luther immediately changed the subject.
He didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable. This was not intended to appease his curiosity, rather this was just a small attempt to make her feel better.
"Meh. It doesn't matter where you are from. Just tell me if you can send this white fur ball to that obsolete place."
Little white who was peacefully lazing around on the other couch immediately turned around and stared at Luther with animosity.
It's sharpened senses were tingling. This fellow who was always lingering around its mom was brewing trouble again.
It gave him a deathly glare and ran out of the house into the garden at lightning speed. Out of sight, out of mind. Hmph.
Su Lin chuckled. These two were always at each other's throats.
Relieved that his wifey was back to her normal self, Luther pulled her closer and nestled her body with a bear hug.
The husband and wife pair ended up cuddling on the couch and watching TV all the way till daybreak.
At 7 am the next morning, Monkey promptly came along to pick up the disgustingly obnoxious husband and wife.
Neither of them understood the first thing about punctuality and hence Monkey had to personally drag the love birds.
After a six hours flight, the group leisurely settled into a seven-star hotel and decided to scout the city a little before diving in straight.
Well, the word scout might be a bit of exaggeration.
Luther and Su Lin were supposedly in charge of this 'scouting' process, but it very suspiciously looked like they were simply chatting and giggling with each other, like a pair of fumbling tourists.
After a while, the situation did not seem like it was going to change. So Monkey cleared his throat and volunteered to actually step into the city and do some real scouting work.
But Su Lin stopped him and firmly forbade him from moving alone.
"You guys are such noobs when it comes to cultivation." Su Lin even chuckled and mocked him.
Damn it. This sister was definitely the worst Master when it comes to teaching. Monkey cursed under his breath but didn't dare to say it out loud.
"When someone with a cultivation base steps within a certain distance, other higher-level cultivators can sense them."
"In Hangzhou city, weirdly we did not encounter any cultivators, but it is definitely not the same in Hongkong."
"Unless they are actually fighting, it might be difficult for noobs like you guys to detect cultivators, but I can already sense the ridiculously high numbers of cultivators in this city."
"This definitely has to be the base of some major clan or organization."
"And the best part is that they are all literally sitting ducks in the southern part of the city. So this should be a relatively easy mission to accomplish tomorrow."
Su Lin then abruptly chuckled.
"Well, I meant for me. You guys should do some preparations today. It bodes well for punching through bottlenecks if you actually engage in life and death combat."
"Master, teachers are supposed to be nurturing and encouraging, not condescending." Monkey muttered indignantly.
"And?"
"Sorry Master, you are the best."
