You Say You Believe in Science, But You Fly on a Sword - Chapter 14
Chapter 14: Broadly Inaccurate And Error-filled Chinese
“What are you laughing at? ”
Afoka shouted, “Now there’s no way forward, and there’s something chasing us from behind! You are completely trapped! ”
Su Qin’an listened to the other party speaking in extremely standard Chinese, using extremely standard idioms. He couldn’t help but wonder if his Chinese was fake.
“That… my friend! ” Su Qin’an felt the need to correct him, letting the other party understand the vastness and profoundness of Chinese civilization: “It should be ‘no way to retreat, and pursuers are behind’ and ‘no way to heaven, no way to earth,’ not what you said about stairs and cracks! ”
Afoka：……
Jilisha：…… Doesn’t want to know this guy
Jilisha shouted, “We don’t want to discuss cracks and stairs with you right now! You’re going to die! Understand?!”
“Exactly! Your time is up! ”
Afoka quickly added.
“My friend! It’s stairs and cracks, not crack-stairs! ”
Su Qin’an covered his face: “How did you guys manage to study Chinese culture to this extent…? ”
Jilisha：……
While Afoka and Jilisha were being led astray by Su Qin’an, Louis Xi remained clear-headed: “If you lay down your weapons and surrender, and help us defeat the level four boss, we can let you die quickly! ”
“Ugly people have big dreams! ”
Xie Yingqing coldly snorted: “Do you think you’re that important? That we would do your grunt work for you! ”
Louis Xi pointed to the dust approaching from behind them: “Look, the level four boss is coming. Its target is you, we just need to casually attack you from the side, and you can go meet the holy lord! ”
“Why would Chinese cultivators go meet a Western god? ”
Su Qin’an sneered: “Saying all this is useless. It’s better to…”
He flashed, his entire body suddenly turning into a black lightning bolt. He flashed in front of Afoka and returned to Xie Yingqing’s side.
“…It’s better to fight quickly, and get some loot! ”
He slowly finished his sentence.
The whole process lasted less than a second. Except for Xie Yingqing, who was familiar with Su Qin’an, no one else reacted.
When everyone reacted, Afoka already had a wound on his chest, continuously bleeding. As for Afoka’s scream, it happened three seconds later.
“Ah… you two! Save me! ”
Jilisha subconsciously hid behind Afoka, then realized it was inappropriate and quickly went to help Afoka: “Are you okay? Take a rest, don’t rush…”
“What did you do? ” Louis Xi immediately raised his Knight’s Sword: “What dark magic? ”
“Are you blind? I just slashed him with my sword! ”
Su Qin’an rolled his eyes at him: “I just wear black clothes. Why is it dark magic? Then, this beautiful woman beside me in white, what is she? Flash? ”
“You’re the Flash, the Flash isn’t pretty at all! ” Xie Yingqing said with a pout: “But you three, don’t just stand there, don’t you see the level four boss is coming? Do you want to die under our swords, or under the boss’s claws? ”
“You… you’re so arrogant… damn it, arrogant Chinese people! ” Afoka cast a recovery spell, healing his wounds: “There are three of us, only two of you, and the boss behind! Doesn’t your country say, two… two legs can’t beat four legs! ”
“It’s two fists can’t beat four hands…” Su Qin’an facepalmed again: “If you can’t say it right, don’t say it! What’s the point of you showing off your inaccurate and wrong Chinese in front of us two Chinese people? ”
Jilisha：…… Doesn’t want to know this guy *2
“I… you… you… you have disdain for me! ” Afoka’s face turned red, and a red light burst from his staff: “Go meet the lord! ”
Then came a series of foreign words that nobody could understand, presumably the language of Afoka’s country.
It must be said that this was much smoother than his Chinese just now.
Afoka waved his staff, and a three-meter-wide pillar of fire suddenly rose from under Xie Yingqing and Su Qin’an, about to engulf them.
The two figures flashed, one black and one white, scattering to both sides, then appeared in front of the three.
Xie Yingqing, aiming to finish the fight quickly to conserve energy, directly used a self-enhancing arcane art.
Scattered Willow Shadow, comprehensively enhances one’s own strength. During the duration, spiritual energy will be continuously burned, and the enhancement ratio increases with cultivation base.
A hazy, white light emanated from the hilt of the Hengyue Sword, making Xie Yingqing look like an immortal fairy who stepped out of a painting. Su Qin’an was momentarily captivated, almost getting hit by Jilisha.
“Sacred Slash! ”
Louis Xi’s Knight’s Sword emitted a soaring white light, slashing down at Su Qin’an.
“Wild Heaven Chen! ”
Su Qin’an, gripping the Falling Star Sword, advanced instead of retreating. The Falling Star Sword, radiating black light, collided directly with the soaring white light.
Black and white were clearly distinct. The commotion was so great that other empires tens of kilometers away could see it.
“What’s going on? Who’s fighting? ”
“Is it for the boss? ”
“I have to go and see! ”
……
“Go, go on! ”
Dao Jingtaro stood in the Dingmao Empire, watching the figures departing from other empires: “Once they’re gone, no one will compete with me for the boss! ”
“You’re dreaming. ”
The blond man’s voice brought him back to reality: “I’m not that stupid. I wouldn’t cross so many empires just to watch the excitement! ”
“You’re indeed clever. ”
Dao Jingtaro smiled: “However… how long can you last against the Imperial Halberd? ”
“How would I know unless I try? ”
The blond man held a short sword, its origin unclear: “I’d like to try the power of the Imperial Halberd! ”
“You’ll find out! ”
……
“You… how is this possible! ”
Louis Xi and Su Qin’an clashed head-on. The Sacred Slash was dispersed by Wild Heaven Chen. He was both shocked and furious: “My cultivation base is higher than yours, how can you possibly defeat me! ”
“If we judged strength solely on cultivation base, we wouldn’t need to fight! ”
Su Qin’an dodged a slash from Jilisha, then pointed his sword at Louis Xi’s chest: “Should both sides announce their cultivation realm, and the lower one surrenders immediately? You must have no brain cells. Or maybe you never had any to begin with? You’ve cultivated, what’s your arcane arts for? Really, explaining this to you, I feel like I’m being assimilated by you! Take this! ”
“Qin’an! Let’s finish this quickly! People from other empires are coming! ”
Xie Yingqing, the fairy-like cultivator, fought two opponents and still managed to shout to Su Qin’an: “People from other empires are coming, let’s take care of these three first! ”
Su Qin’an nodded, his long sword trembled, and countless sword shadows suddenly appeared around Louis Xi, all pointing directly at him, as if to pierce him into nothingness.
Cold Rain Across the River!
“What is this! Why are there so many swords! ”
Louis Xi held his Knight’s Sword before him, his body emitting a golden shield, blocking the countless real and illusory sword shadows.
“Is that all? ”
Louis Xi sneered: “This isn’t even enough…”
“Horizontal Fen River Path! ”
Louis Xi couldn’t finish his sentence.
Because Xie Yingqing had already used Horizontal Fen River Path behind him, bisecting him.
His upper body and legs were separated, and he lay on the ground in pain.
“Ah… Xie…”
Cultivators have strong vitality. Louis Xi’s cultivation base was high, and his vitality was far beyond that of ordinary cultivators.
But this also made the pain of being bisected last longer for Louis Xi.
But eventually, it would all end.
Louis Xi felt his vision darkening, and the figures of Xie Yingqing and Su Qin’an gradually blurred.
Finally, all fell silent.
