A Palm That Appeared Out of Nowhere
The story on the projection continued, and Zhang Wu forcibly dragged Xiao Ying into the room.
He tossed her onto the bed with a flick of his wrist.
"Ouch!" Xiao Ying cried out in pain, rolled off the bed, and struggled to get up to run outside.
"Slap!" Another slap landed, and Xiao Ying was sent flying by Zhang Wu's blow, crashing onto the bedside table and hitting the back of her head on it.
"Hiss!" Xiao Ying subconsciously touched the back of her head and found a warm flow coming from it, which made her cry out in pain.
"You're a demon!" Xiao Ying cried out in despair as she looked at the swaying Zhang Wu.
Zhang Wu squinted; the alcohol was really strong. His head was throbbing, and he couldn't see Xiao Ying's face clearly. The scene in front of him was also swaying, causing him to stagger as he walked. But strangely, no matter how much he swayed, he didn't fall.
"Don't be afraid, young lady, I'll be very gentle, haha." Zhang Wu aimed at Xiao Ying and pounced on her.
Ah, Xiao Ying saw Zhang Wu rushing towards her, and in a panic, she opened the drawer of her bedside table, took out a small pair of scissors, and stabbed at Zhang Wu.
Seeing the Zhang Wu weapon coming at him, Hu Zhangwu instantly became much more alert, breaking out in a cold sweat. He twisted his body Sheer Force in mid-air to dodge the stab.
Although he dodged the attack, Zhang Wu lost his balance and crashed into the wardrobe next to him.
"Damn it!" Zhang Wu's face darkened. He sprang to his feet and raised his hand to strike Xiao Ying's crown.
If that palm strike lands, Xiao Ying will definitely not survive!
The cultivators outside the Bookstore were also watching the scene projected on the screen, remaining silent as they silently observed Zhang Wu about to kill Xiao Ying.
"Damn the system!" Suddenly, a curse came from the sky, and then everyone saw a hand appear out of thin air in the room and slap towards Zhang Wu.
The speed was too fast; no one knew how the palm appeared. By the time they reacted, Zhang Wu was directly shattered by the palm, turning into specks of starlight, without even a chance to resist.
"Hiss!"
Everyone gasped in shock; it was truly terrifying!
"Who was that who delivered that palm strike?" someone asked in a low voice.
"He's definitely not a cultivator," someone said definitively.
It was already common knowledge that anyone entering the world of the book would have their cultivation sealed. Without cultivation, they were roughly the same as ordinary people in every way except for being physically stronger. They might be able to fly over rooftops and walk on walls, but going to heaven or earth was impossible, especially something like striking out of thin air with a palm like just now.
"Such terrifying beings exist in the world of the book?" If they weren't among those who entered Pokémon, then they could only be native inhabitants of Pokémon!
"It can't be! The ordinary people here don't seem to know how to cultivate. They're not even as good as those little elves. How could there be such a terrifying being?" One cultivator shook his head, denying the claim.
A palm strike out of thin air like that just now would require at least Spirit Venerable level of cultivation. If they were truly native to Pokémon, how could everyone's cultivation have been sealed upon entering?
Knowing that such a terrifying being existed inside while their cultivation was sealed, who would dare to go in again? "But it really feels good!" a cultivator suddenly said.
"Haha, that's right! Zhang Wu deserves to die!"
"Exactly, who cares who he is? Killing Zhang Wu at such a crucial moment must mean he's a person bursting with a sense of justice."
Everyone expressed their support for this gesture.
Jiang Bieli, who had been watching, listened to everyone's discussion with a puzzled look. Finally, she couldn't help but ask a cultivator next to her, "Why are they so happy? Even if Zhang Wu died inside, he's just being brought out, not really dead. Everyone should be prepared to swarm him and kill him when he comes out!"
Jiang Bieli was so angry at Zhang Wu's behavior that his heart ached. The kind-hearted man was prepared to get involved when Zhang Wu came out, determined to get rid of such a person.
It turned out that everyone was overjoyed to see Zhang Wu killed with a single slap, even the elder of the Sword Sect had a satisfied expression on his face, which was truly strange.
The cultivator being questioned looked somewhat strange. He glanced at Jiang Bieli, pointed to the books on the long table, and asked, "Has Zhang Wu come out after all this time?"
Jiang Bieli looked at the projection and shook her head, saying, "No."
The practitioner shrugged and remained silent.
Jiang Bieli looked at him with suspicion, then at the projection. Slowly, his expression changed, gradually turning into fear as he stared at the projection, his face pale.
"Could he really be dead?!"
Above the clouds, Ma Feifei watched as he killed Zhang Wu with his palm strike, feeling no guilt whatsoever, but rather a great sense of satisfaction.
"Ding! A reader has died in the Pokémon world. Number of deaths: 1. Two hundred thousand Book Qi Points have been deducted from the host."
"Ding! Host has successfully protected a native. Reward: 100,000 Book Qi Points."
"Ding! A native has been killed by an outsider. The system has determined that the host has failed in his duty of protection and has deducted 100,000 Book Qi Points."
"Laozi 'm going to slap you!" Ma Feifei couldn't help but curse.
"I said from the beginning that I had to take action, it was too late, something bad was going to happen. You insisted that the indigenous people weren't harmed and wouldn't allow me to intervene. Now that people are dead, you're trying to shift the blame onto me? Can't you be reasonable?" Ma Feifei said, her face full of dissatisfaction.
This system is really going too far. It claims to be both black and white; it's utter nonsense.
However, the system did not respond to Ma Feifei's question and fell silent.
Ma Feifei curled his lip. "It's just a little bit of Book Qi Points. Let them deduct it. Laozi rich, it doesn't matter to me."
However, Ma Feifei was quite regretful. He regretted not killing Zhang Wu sooner, which resulted in the death of an indigenous person. If he had acted earlier, the indigenous person would not have died, and Ma Feifei would have had 100,000 fewer Book Qi Points deducted.
After exiting the system panel, Ma Feifei peered down from the cloud, wanting to see how Xiao Ying was doing.
But then she discovered that, without her noticing, Xiao Ying's house had returned to normal, with the male homeowner and she lying in bed embracing each other, as if nothing had ever happened!
"Hiss!" Ma Feifei gasped, silently ceasing his thoughts of further criticizing the system, and began to continue fighting to maintain peace in this world.
The cultivators outside the Bookstore did not witness this scene. After Zhang Wu was killed with that palm strike, the screen suddenly went dark, and when it lit up again, it was already broad daylight.
"Ah, oh, oh, oh"
Riding Lapras and singing loudly, it carried Liu Changsheng to a city.
"That Mad Scholar is incredibly lucky; he managed to survive."
"And they're so carefree, they actually look down on this little elf."
In the projection, Liu Changsheng jumped ashore and watched the Lapras ride away into the distance.
"Ah, oh, oh"
Lapras seemed to be saying goodbye to Liu Changsheng.
Liu Changsheng raised his hand and waved. Liu Changsheng still very grateful to the Lapras that had pulled him ashore from the sea.
"Brush"
Suddenly, a large net rushed straight towards the Lapras.
With a "whoosh," a harpoon pierced towards Lapras.
"Pfft."
The harpoon pierced the Lapras's neck.
The Lapras didn't even have a chance to Growl before it collapsed.
"Are you out of your mind?! Why are you sticking something in someone's neck?" A cultivator stood on a cargo ship beside the dock, watching the Lapras fall into the sea, and cursed as he pulled in the net.
"I didn't know its skin was so fragile! It pierced through in an instant," a cultivator on another ship said, feeling aggrieved.
"Alright, hurry up and pull it up, see if there's any hope." On a small escape boat, three cultivators pulled in the net with both hands while keeping an eye on the Lapras in the sea.
Liu Changsheng, standing on the shore, watched this scene in silence.
"Whoosh!" A sea breeze swept in, ruffling Liu Changsheng's disheveled hair.
With a "thud," a harpoon leaning against a mooring post on the dock was blown to the ground by the sea breeze.
Liu Changsheng slowly walked over and picked up the harpoon.
