Chapter 529 - Powerful (1/2)
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
What is it like to see a living ghost?
A dead person had revived in front of everyone suddenly and was even jumping about lively. That could barely be regarded as seeing a living ghost.
What happens when one really sees a living ghost was that no one would be able to recognize the face of a clearly dead person who appeared again in front of everyone. Having an evil ghost-like appearance was what seeing a living ghost really meant.
The members of Elysium watched Lan Caihe stand upright, open his arms, and let out a roar unlike a human’s. Their whole body raised goosebumps layer after layer.
Lan Caihe’s death was real. This martial artist died despite Elysium’s expert martial artists and the most apex-level doctors’ rescue. This matter was not only known by the people of Saturn, but several other planets’ martial artist circles were well aware of it as well.
The fall of a powerful martial artist would surely shake the entire martial artists circle just like the time Bae Seong-Joon and Kyokushin Kouten died in Hallasan. It had also shaken the other planets’ martial artists circles, letting people know that the new generation of martial artists had begun to rise.
“Lan Caihe! It is Lord Lan Caihe! Oh God, am I seeing it correctly?”
“Am I seeing it wrong too? Oh God! There are too many unbelievable events happening today! If this is a nightmare, please let me wake up soon.”
“Yes! It is Lord Lan Caihe! I have been in close contact with Lord Lan Caihe! There was once when I was blocking his way and he kicked me so mercilessly that my two front teeth broke.”
The body muscles of Lan Caihe, who was in the ‘Pandora’s box’, were different from before. It was harder now but a little less lively. It carried a little of death’s stiffness. The ten fingers were twice as long as before. Rather than saying palms, it was more accurate to say ‘mutant creatures’ claws’.
The one-point-eight meter body was two point one meter tall now. He looked thin and tall, yet very powerful at the same time. His eyes carried a monstrous red light, his two canines looked more like an animal’s long canines now and the once fair skin had turned into dark brown. Pinkie-sized green veins tied under his skin like iron chains. Only from his facial contours could one recognize that he was the former Eight Immortals, Lan Caihe.
With the three consecutive roars, Lan Caihe seemed to be venting his dissatisfactions with being trapped. The faces of the Elysium martial artists who stood slightly closer were like a piece of gold paper. Their lips became white and oozed pungent bloodstains. They sat on the floor, unable to stand up anymore.
This was not a lion’s roar nor Buddha’s Heart chant with a sonic attack. It was just a simple roaring vent. Even the expressions of the fourteen-star class martial artist next to Lu Dongbin were extremely unpleasant while staring at the ‘monster’ in front of them carefully.
Lu Dongbin looked at the aggressive Lan Caihe and sighed. Maybe he really shouldn’t have undergone the final emergency surgery when his heart was blown up and died that day. Is Lan Caihe still considered a human now? Is he still that intimate comrade of the past?
Three roars and Lan Caihe slowly lowered his high head. The dozens of green veins popped out on his forehead like a dense spider web, it was so disgusting. The fierce red light first landed on Lu Dongbin.
Lu Dongbin’s skin reacted and he stared at Lan Caihe with a hint of vigilance. Lu Dongbin was wary as the information stated that Lan Caihe didn’t differentiate friends from foes and could attack at any time.
The eyes’ red glare gradually weakened and Lu Dongbin had a very strange feeling. The information said that it would kill anyone when it woke up without differentiating friends from foes. There was not much fury in his eyes, more of it was curiosity and doubts. There was even some sadness, as if Lu Dongbin’s hostility would upset Lan Caihe.
“Lan Caihe’s brain is dead. This is just his remaining strength made into a special monster with the bizarre biotechnology.”
Lu Dongbin kept warning himself to always keep a certain vigilance.
Woo… oh…
Lan Caihe made an unidentifiable sound that contained a low-lying sadness. Lan Caihe’s red eyes crossed Lu Dongbin and fell on He Xiangu.
No killing and no aggression. Lu Dongbin could even read a faint sign of gentle love, which was the look that Lan Caihe once had when he saw He Xiangu.
