Tonight, I Can Finally Pull for Furina to My Heart's Content
Had that actor's acting really reached the very pinnacle?
Elder Ling Yuan had just kept calling him a swindler, yet after all this time, she had been nowhere to be seen.
Ling Yuan, weren't you slapping yourself in the face over and over?
Bibi Dong frowned, stroking her fair chin as a sudden sense of foreboding rose in her heart.
If the actor's Martial Soul was an illusion, then perhaps the ray of flame that had shot into the sky had been an illusion too.
Just then, someone suddenly appeared outside the hall. Bibi Dong immediately looked up. "Who is it?"
"It's your subordinate."
She Long entered the hall and respectfully bowed to Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong frowned. "She Long? Why have you come back to Spirit Hall instead of staying by Qian Renxue's side to protect her?"
She Long said, "The young mistress said the Great Enshrined's birthday is approaching, so she sent me back especially to bring a gift. Your Holiness, where are the other elders? I've been back for quite a while and haven't seen a single one."
Bibi Dong sneered at that. "Since you've returned, didn't you notice a stage had appeared in Spirit City? That actor claims to be a god, and right now he has three elders completely fooled."
"Such a thing happened?!"
She Long was astonished.
He hadn't been back to Spirit City for quite some time. He wouldn't have known if he hadn't come back-something this exciting had happened in the city.
Life in the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace was stifling and dull. The moment Bibi Dong mentioned it, She Long became interested.
She Long said, "Your Holiness, why don't you let me go take a look?"
Bibi Dong nodded. "Give those three a beating as soon as you see them. I suspect they've been bewitched by an illusion. Surely a slap each will wake them up?"
"Hehe, you got it!"
She Long replied with a grin.
He hadn't seen the elders in ages, and he got to slap them the moment they met, on the Pope's orders no less. How could anything be more satisfying?
Shen Luo sat in his chair, looking at the slender hand resting in his palm.
Ling Yuan Douluo still had plenty of mature charm, though she hadn't had much presence in the original story.
Shen Luo asked, "Pay nine levels of Soul Power?"
Ling Yuan nodded and asked eagerly, "That's right... Can I get Klee too?"
Shen Luo shook his head, entirely objective. "I'm sorry, the character banners are all random. Ghost Douluo just happened to get Klee's banner."
Hearing that, Ling Yuan bit her lip slightly. "All right, then. I'll leave it to fate."
On the panel before Shen Luo, the banners kept flashing past, gradually coming to a stop on Hu Tao's rate-up banner.
Seeing this, Shen Luo couldn't help raising a brow. "Do you really want a fire character?"
Ling Yuan nodded at once. "Yes, yes, yes! I really do!"
Shen Luo smiled. "Then congratulations. You did get a fire character's banner, and she's a very popular, very good five-star fire character."
"Really?! That's wonderful!"
Ling Yuan was overjoyed and even turned back to smile at Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo.
Shen Luo immediately began her ninety pulls.
One golden meteor and eight purple meteors streaked across the deep blue sky, but the moment he saw the results, Shen Luo's expression inevitably changed.
[Pull results: five-star Diluc ×1 (lost the 50/50), four-star Xiangling ×2, four-star Chongyun ×2, four-star Harbinger of Dawn ×4, three-star Black Tassel ×24, three-star White Tassel ×27, three-star White Iron Greatsword ×15, three-star Magic Guide ×15] [Host rewards: Soul Power ×9, Starglitter ×26, Stardust ×1350]
Was Ling Yuan Douluo unlucky too?
I wonder if Diluc could disguise himself as Hu Tao in shorts and white socks... Looking at Ling Yuan's expectant gaze, Shen Luo almost couldn't bear to tell her she had lost the 50/50.
Shen Luo said, "You lost the 50/50."
This time, he said it decisively.
His sympathy was real, and so was his delight!
Sorry, the more 50/50s you lose, the happier I am, hahaha!
Shen Luo wished every rate-up five-star would be his alone!
The expression on Ling Yuan's face froze the moment Shen Luo told her she had lost the 50/50.
Soon, a total of ninety card slots formed a circle around her.
Sure enough, in the upper right corner of the first slot, which glowed gold, the words "lost the 50/50" were circled in red.
"Hahahaha!"
Suddenly, unrestrained laughter came from behind her. Ling Yuan turned to find Chrysanthemum Douluo holding his belly as he laughed.
"Ling Yuan, oh Ling Yuan! I never thought you'd lose the 50/50 too! Hahaha!"
"Shut up!"
Ling Yuan turned and glared furiously at Chrysanthemum Douluo.
She looked at Shen Luo and asked, "Lord God, how good is this defective five-star of mine?"
Shen Luo knew Ling Yuan was only seeking a little comfort from him.
"He's a five-star fire character, and he's quite powerful. His Elemental Burst is even somewhat similar to your skill."
"Really?"
No sooner had Ling Yuan asked than Diluc flew out of the first card slot toward her, appearing on her as a Martial Soul.
The moment Ling Yuan saw Diluc in person, she was stunned.
Shen Luo was about to continue introducing him when Ling Yuan suddenly raised a hand to stop him. "Wait, Lord God."
Shen Luo asked, "What is it?"
Ling Yuan's eyes lit up. "His name is Diluc, right? He's so handsome?!"
Perhaps it was because she had an innate fondness for fire characters. Combined with Diluc's long red hair, upright figure, and handsome face, Ling Yuan fell for him in an instant.
Shen Luo raised a hand and rubbed his chin. "He is pretty handsome. He's also a young nobleman with a huge manor."
After saying that, Shen Luo noticed Ling Yuan was still gazing at Diluc in a daze. Clearly, she hadn't heard what he had just said.
All right, verdict's in. Looks like Ling Yuan pulls for her tastes.
Ling Yuan said, "He's so handsome. I need to level him up right away! But... apart from me, there don't seem to be any other fire Soul Masters around."
Shen Luo said, "You don't necessarily have to fight fire Soul Masters to gain experience. I said Soul Masters before only because not many people had obtained characters from me yet. Now Ghost Douluo has Klee, so you can fight each other to gain experience."
A smile appeared on Ghost Douluo's face. "All right, let's give it a try now, then. I can see just how strong this defective handsome guy is while we're at it."
"Stop right there!"
Just then, someone suddenly shouted from nearby.
She Long walked through the crowd, his expression grave. "You really have been thoroughly fooled. I just got here and heard that fellow on the stage coaxing you into fighting among yourselves, is that it?"
"Another one's here. Does he have a lot of Soul Power too?"
Furina whispered in Shen Luo's ear.
Shen Luo nodded. "Yes, this guy has over ninety levels of Soul Power too. He's another big customer. It's just like the Calabash Brothers trying to rescue their grandpa, coming one after another. We're going to make a killing today."
"Yes, a killing."
Furina was happy too, but then she suddenly heard Shen Luo say something very strange beside her.
Shen Luo chuckled to himself. "Tonight, I can finally pull for Furina to my heart's content. As many times as I want..."
Hearing that, Furina's expression changed, and she silently moved farther away from Shen Luo.
