Chapter 328
Genos Fubuki, standing to the side, were also surprised to see the beautiful girl with gray hair and red eyes who looked exactly like Luo Mio.
Fubuki looked at Xiaoshi, her emerald green eyes flickering slightly.
Because she sensed a similar aura from Xiao Shi.
The aura of a "Herrscher".
Then Fubuki slowly spoke up, "Miohua... who is she?"
Hearing Fubuki's question, Luo Mio's gaze towards Xiao Shi relaxed, and then she explained to Fubuki and Genos in an annoyed tone, "Her name is Hua, but you can also call her Xiao Shi."
Upon hearing Luo Mio's tone, Xiao Shi also said with great displeasure, "Is this the attitude you should have towards your master!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Mio rolled her eyes at Xiao Shi.
"Master?"
Fubuki also looked at Luo Mio and Xiao Shi, who looked exactly alike, with a puzzled expression.
"Aren't you... siblings?"
"This one?"
Luo Mio glanced at Xiao Shi beside her, then explained to Fubuki.
"It's complicated to explain, but to sum it up in one sentence..."
He turned slightly to the side, revealing Xiao Shi's full appearance behind him.
"She is my... teacher's daughter."
"Hey!" Xiao Shi immediately said to Luo Mio with dissatisfaction, "I'm not that old fogey's daughter!"
Luo Mio glanced at her, then spoke.
"You've been lied to by your own mother."
"..."
"I..."
"You've been lied to by your own mother."
Xiao Shi also spoke up loudly, "Aren't you annoying?!"
After saying that, she turned her head away in a huff.
Fubuki and Genos, standing to the side, also watched Luo Mio and Xiao Shi's conversation with dumbfounded expressions.
"Um?"
At this moment, Xiao Shi's gaze also turned to Fubuki.
When the crimson eyes were fixed on Fubuki, Xiaoshi's eyes also revealed a thoughtful look.
Then he muttered to himself in a low voice.
"No wonder I sensed a very familiar yet very unfamiliar aura when I came back."
"So, Mio handed over the Herrscher Core of the Fourth Herrscher to you."
"..."
When Fubuki heard Xiaoshi talking to himself, she was also taken aback.
Seeing Fubuki's puzzled expression, Xiao Shi's lips curled up slightly, and he said with a very arrogant smile.
"You can call me Fu Hua, or you can call me Chi Yuan, of course..."
As he spoke, a dark black feather slowly appeared in Xiao Shi's hand.
"You can also call me the 'Herrscher of Perception,' who governs consciousness and memory."
Upon hearing this, Fubuki's expression froze.
Having obtained the "Gem of Desire," she can be said to have inherited most of its inherited memories.
This explains everything from the First Herrscher to the Thirteenth Herrscher.
Unexpectedly, another Herrscher appeared before her.
Furthermore, unlike her ability to "Creation of Ideal Fluid," the gray-haired girl in front of her, who looks exactly like Luo Mio except for her gender, is in charge of consciousness and memory.
But when she thought about this, Fubuki also had doubts.
From the inherited memories of "Gem of Desire," she only knew that it started with the First Herrscher and ended with the Thirteenth Herrscher.
She still didn't know which Herrscher Luo Mio was.
Initially, she thought Luo Mio was the second Herrscher of Void, but some of Luo Mio's methods were lightning-attributed, so she was suspected to be the third Herrscher of Thunder.
However, Luo Mio is also able to manipulate the powers of the Eighth Consciousness Herrscher.
This also made Fubuki suspicious.
What kind of Herrscher is Luo Mio?
Seeing Fubuki's expression, Luo Mio knew what she was thinking, but Luo Mio just smiled and didn't say anything more.
Then Luo Mio spoke, looking at Xiao Shi.
"You're back so soon?"
Xiao Shi glanced at Luo Mio.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing much." Luo Mio looked at Xiao Shi, then sat down at the small square table and gently picked up Skoll.
"I'm just wondering, given your personality, you should still be traveling around the world right now."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Shi quickly waved his hand.
"Stop talking."
Luo Mio blinked.
What happened?
"It's so boring."
"..." Luo Mio tilted her head.
"Ha?"
Xiao Shi also sat down next to Luo Mio, took his tea, and gulped it down.
"This is so boring. I thought there were a lot of decent weirdos in this world."
As he spoke, Xiao Shi shrugged and said in a very irritated tone.
"In the end, they were all a bunch of weaklings. They surrendered obediently after a beating, without a shred of backbone."
"Especially that guy who calls himself the King of the Underworld."
As she spoke, Xiao Shi gestured to Luo Mio.
"I hit him once, and he and his people raised the white flag."
Saitama, standing to the side, was also silently watching Xiaoshi.
'He really is like a child...'
When he was a child, he wanted to do the same, and he would tell his parents about his time playing outside.
Similarly, Luo Mio knew this, so she listened quietly with a smile to Xiao Shi's story.
At this moment.
Luo Mio said, "How about we have a fight to vent our anger?"
Upon hearing this, Fubuki, Genos, and Saitama were also taken aback.
Xiao Shi's eyes widened in surprise, then flashed with intense fighting spirit, his crimson eyes gleaming.
"OK!"
After saying that, Xiao Shi stood up and addressed Luo Mio.
Where to?
Luo Mio also stood up while holding Skoll, and patted her head.
"Then... how about we go to your Illusionary Space?"
Xiao Shi stroked his chin and pondered for a moment.
"Can."
After saying that, Xiao Shi pulled out a dark red feather.
"—Zheng!"
Suddenly, a white light shone.
Genos Fubuki couldn't help but close their eyes.
When they opened their eyes, Genos and Fubuki were shocked by what they saw.
The sky was shrouded in thick white clouds, obscuring the azure expanse.
They are surrounded by countless peaks of varying heights and steep cliffs.
In the very center, in their field of vision, stood an enormous Stone Peak Sword. Around it were several shorter Stone Peak Sword, with rusty chains binding the hilts to the central giant Stone Peak Sword.
Looking down at Stone Peak Sword, Fubuki and Genos felt as insignificant as ants.
And around them, countless slender swords were stuck in the ground, while on the ground was a purple lotus made of crystals.
This is...
Luo Mio raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Shi, who was standing at the top of the Wufeng Sword.
Then he handed Skoll to Fubuki.
Then, Luo Mio moved instantly and arrived at another Stone Peak Sword that was a little shorter.
Luo Mio slowly took out her Crow Feather Katana from the Void Fissures.
Meanwhile, Xiao Shi on the other side also smiled, and then three weapons appeared behind her.
"Let's start dancing!"
Chapter Twenty-One: Xiao Shi VS Luo Mio
On the Stone Peak Sword in the middle, Xiao Shi slowly took out the "Treasured Sword - Too Much Talk Leads to Death", and pointed the sharp sword tip at Luo Mio.
"Even if my opponent is you, Little Mio, I won't hold back."
Luo Mio also drew her Raven Feather Blade from its Dark Gold Sheath and gently lowered it.
Upon hearing Xiao Shi's words, Luo Mio chuckled and said, "I already said I was just helping you vent your anger, why are you saying you'd go easy on me?"
Xiao Shi smiled when she heard Luo Mio's answer.
"So..."
Luo Mio's eyes gradually became serious.
He knew that... if he didn't use the power of "The Finality," relying solely on the power of the Character Carrier, he would at most be comparable to an ordinary Herrscher in strength.
But Xiao Shi is different; she is not an ordinary Herrscher.
The body she is currently using is the Character Carrier "Herrscher of Perception" role that the system originally prepared for him.
It's equivalent to her regaining Fu Hua's body and the power of her teacher at her peak.
While he is slightly inferior to Kevin, the strongest fusion warrior on the human side, in terms of Honkai Energy adaptability, he is superior in terms of combat skills.
With the added power of the Herrscher, it's uncertain who would win if they actually fought Kevin.
Therefore, Xiao Shi can be said to be the strongest combat force on the Honkai side right now!
Although it was meant to be a way to vent her anger, Luo Mio dared not be careless in the slightest.
It's important to understand that this battle is nothing like the sparring he had with his teacher in the Gakusen Toshi.
