Chapter 316: Love Curse
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
Just like Plants vs Zombies, one’s progression in the King of Fighters was also shared on their Friend Circle.
[TL Note: The Friend Circle is more like Facebook where people could share posts and stuff.]
The number of players who played the little games was still growing, but the majority of players went to Plants vs Zombies.
It was only because not many people could afford the King of Fighters.
By now, the task target was more than halfway, which was 152/200. It meant that it wouldn’t be long before the arrival of Harry Potter I.
Compared with the original version of King of Fighters, which one could clear stage with only one token, this version was extremely difficult. Even Fang Qi couldn’t clear stage with only one token.
The condition for unlocking the moves and skills in King of Fighters was that the players had to defeat enemies in story mode. After defeating one team of enemies, the players could learn the training methods for some of the skills of the characters that they used in the fight. If they wanted to learn the Desperation Moves, they had to defeat Orochi by clearing the stage with one token.
With 20 gold coins for one token, Fang Qi had spent a lot of his gold coins that he had gained through stealing other people’s vegetables, but he still hadn’t seen Orochi yet, let alone defeat it.
It was quite embarrassing.
Mr. Fang defeated all the other players of King of Fighters and was unrivaled in the whole internet café. He used he combos smoothly and could even play well with one hand.
However, on the second day, Mr. Fang didn’t play the King of Fighters.
“It’s time to watch Wind and Clouds and Jade Dynasty!” Now, everyone turned to the TV Series at this time of the week without Fang Qi’s reminder.
“Come here! Anyone who wants to watch it together come here!” Since the appearance of Qzone, they could watch the TV Series together. Today, Mr. Fang’s viewing group had some new members, including Mo Tianxing, Huangpu Tao, Liu Ningyun, and Mo Xian.
The Xichi Spiritual Master and other players who had just visited the shop yesterday were still watching the previous episodes, trying to catch up. It was clear that they didn’t get to the newest episodes yet.
“Ugh? Sir, where’s the girl who played the King of Fighters with you?” Song Qingfeng looked around, surprised that the regular visitor of Mr. Fang’s Qzone wasn’t in the group.
“He is actually hanging out with that demonic woman!” Mo Xian and her friends were gossiping.
“I hope he won’t be charmed by that demonic woman!”
“Fortunately, she isn’t here. I don’t want to watch the TV Series with that demonic woman…”
Mr. Fang explained, “She’s still watching the previous episodes and hasn’t gotten this far yet.”
“Hey! Kid Fang has made many new friends over there!” While looking at the new faces, Nalan Hongwu said while laughing, “Why don’t you introduce us?”
“Huangpu Tao!”
“I’m Mo Tianxing of the Heaven-Defying Online Games Guild!”
“…”
Although the two regions always fought in the Legend of Mir 2, the people here today weren’t like Black Demon. After Fang Qi introduced them, they got along well. People like Song Qingfeng, who were regular visitors of Fang Qi’s Qzone, were quite familiar with the new people. “The woman in white is a super genius of the Morning Star Sea Realm. Despite her young age, she has reached the True Lake Realm…”
“So strong? Is she a more talented genius than Ms. Nalan?”
“…”
Meanwhile, Nalan Mingxue looked sulky, and her beautiful eyes shot out sparks. The atmosphere was intense.
“You’re still young…” Sensing her mood, Mr. Fang comforted her quietly, “You’re not even 17 yet; you still have time.”
“Humph!”
People like Xue Daolv, Mo Tianxing, and the others got along better.
“Not bad! Not bad!” Huangpu Tao said, “We have different customs and inheritances; I believe your Daoist techniques and understanding must have some unique features.
“Thank you! Thank you!” They began to compliment each other professionally, “I heard that the Morning Star Sea Realm is a world full of cultivators; True Lake Realm cultivators are everywhere, and Divine Ocean Realm cultivators can be frequently seen. I’m sure your Daoist techniques and understanding are very profound as well!”
“Thank you!”
“When you guys have time, we can sit down to have tea and talk about Dao!”
At this moment, the scene around them changed, and Jade Dynasty began.
In the last episode, the Demon Cult had begun attacking Green Cloud Faction, which was why they were so eager to watch the new episodes.
In the back mountain of Green Cloud Faction, Lin Jingyu was on the verge of dying, and the old man whose job was to sweep the floor used the Seven Tribulation Dragon-Slaying Spell, which was a long-lost spell of the Green Cloud Faction. The mountain-like green light appeared, amazing all the people there.
“Wan? Wan what?!”
The viewers talked among themselves. “This sword control technique is horrifyingly powerful!”
“Wan…” Nalan Mingxue said thoughtfully, “Is he Senior Brother Wan, whom they had mentioned?”
After watching the dazzling re-emergence of Wan Jianyi, they watched the appearance of the ancient Immortal-Slaying Sword!
[A mysterious old man residing at the Founder Shrine. He used to be in a relationship with You Ji, but they could not be together as they were from opposing sects. Later, he becomes Lin Jingyu’s teacher.]
The customers of Fang Qi’s shop didn’t know why this TV Series was named Jade Dynasty, but they finally understood why when they saw the appearance of the Immortal-Slaying Sword.
[TL Note: the name of the TV Series is Zhu Xian in Chinese, meaning immortal slayer. But it was translated into Jade Dynasty and other names.]
The entire Green Cloud Mountain was shaking.
On Heaven-Reaching Peak, the sky which had been clear for more than 1,000 years began to dim.
In the Fantasy Moon Cave Abode, a purple aura rose majestically!
Six beams of radiant mystic yellow, indigo, red, green, orange, and blue lights merged with the purple light, and the seven beams of light condensed on the radiant ancient Immortal-Slaying Sword in Daoxuan’s hand.
The sky and the earth changed colors, and rumbles of thunder boomed.
“The Immortal-Slaying Sword Array?!” While looking at the endless seven beams of mystic light that were in seven different colors flashing in the sky and condensing into a huge horrifying sword energy, all the people in the audience were stunned!
The sword energies fell like the raindrops in a storm! Seeing many cultivators of the Demon Cult getting knocked into the ground by the sword energies without the ability to fight back, the rain of blood and flesh, and the hell-like scene, the cultivators in the audience were at a loss for words toward the power of this sword.
More shockingly, the huge seven-colored sword was still in the sky! The Immortal-Slaying Sword Array had just released a small trace of its power!
They were so excited that their faces told it all, and they held onto their breaths subconsciously.
“I’m surprised that Green Cloud Faction’s guarding array is so powerful!” Liu Ningyun lamented, “If our Nanhua Faction had such a guarding array, we wouldn’t have suffered such severe damage in the catastrophe at the hands of the devils and demons 1,000 years ago.”
“Green Leaf Ancestral Master is an amazing genius!”
However, it wasn’t the end of the climax of the episode yet. When they watched Daoxuan Spiritual Master demand Zhang Xiaofan to reveal the secret behind his fast increase in cultivation strength, their hearts jumped into their throats.
Then, bedlam broke loose when they learned that the villagers in Grass Temple Village had been slaughtered by Puzhi, who had saved both Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu!
“What’s orthodox? What’s justice?” When they heard the shout, no one knew how to answer the questions.
Then, the Immortal-Slaying Sword that was in the sky crashed toward Zhang Xiaofan, who was demonized and holding Swallowing Soul, the staff, in his hand.
Almost all the viewers lost the ability to think.
Seeing the huge, horrifying seven-colored sword crashing down, the viewers’ minds had become dark and chaotic!
There was neither sounds or light between the sky and the earth!
They felt the endless desperation as if they were there.
At this moment, they heard the faint and crisp sounds of a bell.
“Gloomy souls in Hell and demons and gods in Heaven, I’ll sacrifice my body to you and fall…” someone chanted incantations of the blood curse which many people looked at in disdain and almost no one thought would ever be cast.
Love Curse!
Then, they saw that gentle and beautiful girl being pushed into the sky by a gale, dashing toward the huge sword which was engulfed in flowing seven-colored light!
It was the only light in the dark abyss of endless despair!
