Chapter 99: Xue Jing, Who Inspires Faith, Explosive Divinity, and the Power of the Foreign God - Unconquered Lionheart (4K)



"Swish—"

Pei Youguang tossed a flat stone in his hand, and it skipped across the clear lake's surface several times before sinking into the water.

His performance was a bit off today.

He swallowed and felt his heart racing.

"Xiaoqin, is there something you wanted to talk about when you asked to meet me?"

Pei Youguang turned to the girl beside him, who was wearing a white dress and looked pure and beautiful.

His gaze then subtly drifted downward, catching a glimpse of her deep cleavage, and he felt a stir in his heart.

Could this be the start of his spring?

During yesterday's barbecue by the lake, Xiaoqin had been unusually gentle in her words and actions towards him. And now, it seemed like she genuinely had feelings for him?

"Second Young Master Pei..."

The girl named Xiaoqin placed her hands together, resting them against her cheek, and a charming, innocent expression appeared on her pure and beautiful face. Her adorable demeanor struck Pei Youguang right in his sweet spot, making him feel light-headed.

"Just call me Youguang, Xiaoqin."

He forced a calm expression on his plump face, causing Xiaoqin to giggle.

"Okay, Youguang~"

Her voice was sweet and coquettish, as if she were pouting.

Pei Youguang's entire body felt numb, and his bones seemed to turn soft.

"Can you..."

Xiaoqin's eyes sparkled.

Before she could finish, Pei Youguang found himself nodding repeatedly.

He would agree to anything.

He would even sell himself if needed.

"Can you give me that Xue Xiaoge's contact information?"

Xiaoqin clasped her hands together, and her pure and beautiful face took on a pitiful, pleading look.

Pei Youguang: "..."

He felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head, and his whole body stiffened.

So, there wasn't going to be any such luck...

A bitter smile tugged at the corners of Pei Youguang's mouth.

"Please, I'll treat you to a meal, okay?"

Xiaoqin continued her coquettish plea.

Pei Youguang sighed but didn't respond. Feeling dejected, he picked up a flat stone from the lakeside and channeled his strength, throwing it into the lake with all his might to vent his frustration.

"Boom!!!'

A deafening thunderclap exploded, nearly deafening him.

The girl named Xiaoqin beside him screamed and fell to the ground in shock.

On the lake's surface, a pitch-black spiral water spout, several meters in diameter, appeared. It swept up countless waves as it churned across the lake.

"Splash, splash, splash—"

Wherever it passed, it was like a typhoon, causing the lake to churn with massive waves. The water adhered to the spout before bursting apart, spraying dense raindrops in all directions.

The black water spout moved at a breakneck speed, ravaging the area just in front of Pei Youguang and Xiaoqin before continuing on its path.

They felt as if the gale would blow them away, and the rain poured down on them, instantly soaking them.

When everything finally calmed down, Pei Youguang wiped the water from his face, opened his eyes, and gasped for breath, still shaken.

He looked at the hand that had thrown the stone and said in surprise, "Huh? Did I do that again?"

"There's a water monster... There's a black water monster in this lake!"

Xiaoqin hugged her semi-transparent white dress, which had become wet, and shivered.

...

Xue Jing was also stunned by the effect of this strike.

"Wow... I enhanced it with Shadowflame and Twinborn Enchantment, but I didn't expect it to be this powerful."

"This blade aura could probably shred that enhanced cockroach monster at Qingfu Middle School into pieces from a distance..."

Xue Jing took a sharp breath.

He wouldn't believe it if someone told him this was the result of pure physical damage.

"To interfere with self-reality through spiritual power... It's terrifying!"

"But this strike is obviously much more powerful than yesterday's. Not only has the power increased, but the attack range and distance have also improved significantly..."

"This should be the effect of Shadowflame. When it's enchanted on the blade aura, it changes its nature?"

Xue Jing pondered.

"It seems like there are still many unexplored applications of this Divinity skill..."

Xue Jing clenched his palm, and the shadows behind him instantly produced strands of black airflow, wrapping around his palm. Instead of turning into burning black flames, they formed a black membrane that covered his hand in black.

"This looks like Armament Haki..."

Xue Jing furrowed his brows.

"This is actually a good way to use Shadowflame discreetly. It's not as conspicuous as when the black flames are burning."

"I'll have to prioritize raising Shadowflame's level as well... In that case, I'll need even more Divinity."

Xue Jing frowned slightly.

However, the mere thought of obtaining the [Hundred Feet Higher] item tomorrow instantly smoothed out his furrowed brows.

"Hundred Feet Higher should provide a few hundred Divinity. That should be enough to raise Twinborn's level once more... With that, the basic preparations to defeat Okagalin are complete."

"But I'm also not far from reaching Level 10 in Fitness. At most, I need a little over ten thousand more experience points. As for the thousand Divinity points needed for Skill Transcendence, I should also prepare them in advance... It's still quite lacking."

Xue Jing shook his head, deciding not to dwell on these thoughts anymore. He struck a pose and began his daily martial arts cultivation.

...

At noon, Xue Jing rode Shi Feng back to the manor.

He put Shi Feng in its stable, removed its saddle and reins, and then fetched a lot of carrots, apples, and corn from the warehouse to feed it as a reward.

After leaving the stable, he made his way back to the main house of the manor, intending to grind some more Swimming experience.

Just as he reached the entrance, he happened to see a black car driving in along the pebbled driveway.

The rear door of the car opened, and a petite figure emerged—it was Zhu Shan Ying.

Her long, black, smooth hair fluttered in the wind as she tucked a strand of it behind her ear and then looked towards Xue Jing.

She looked at him with a puzzled expression, focusing on the glasses he was wearing, before her lively eyes lit up, and she called out in a sweet and sticky tone, "Little Junior Brother~"

Xue Jing smiled and nodded at her, "Senior Sister Zhu."

Zhu Shan Ying walked up to him, pinching her chin as she examined his face and commented, "Now that I take a good look, Little Junior Brother, you actually suit wearing glasses. Although you don't have the usual impactful look, there's a kind of restrained and low-key beauty to it."

"Hmm?"

Zhu Shan Ying's small nose twitched slightly, and she leaned forward, moving closer to Xue Jing to sniff him.

"Little Junior Brother, you smell so good."

Xue Jing calmly shifted the topic, "Senior Sister Zhu, you've seemed quite busy these past few days. What have you been up to?"

Hearing this, the girl pouted and grumbled, "Doing business, of course... I don't know why there's been a sudden surge of business matters that require my personal attention. It wasn't like this before..."

"I've been so busy that I haven't even had time to play with you, Little Junior Brother."

Xue Jing understood the reason behind this upon hearing her explanation.

Without elaborating further, he simply smiled and said, "It must be because Senior Sister Zhu has an outstanding business talent. Your elders at home probably want to make good use of your abilities."

Zhu Shan Ying spread her hands, "Perhaps~"

"Okay, Little Junior Brother, accompany me for lunch. After that, I'll have to leave again..."

...

After having lunch with Zhu Shan Ying and spending some more time chatting with her, the girl eventually left.

Xue Jing saw her off as she got into the car and waved goodbye.

Once the car was out of sight, Xue Jing thought to himself, "Looks like I can't stay at Senior Sister Zhu's place for too long."

However, suddenly saying that he wouldn't come again wouldn't be good either, as it might make her overthink things.

In a few days, he would be going to Feng City for the competition, and after that, it would be natural not to visit as frequently.

Xue Jing rubbed his chin, feeling a bit strange about the situation.

"Could it be that Senior Sister Zhu's family will find me soon, hand me a bank card, and say, 'There are 500 million in this card. Leave my daughter alone'?"

"Hmm? That doesn't sound too bad, actually."

Xue Jing smiled.

He didn't mind the subtle wariness that Zhu Shan Ying's family seemed to have towards him.

Even an ordinary family, when faced with a situation where their daughter suddenly brings a man home while the parents are away, would definitely have their suspicions. Not to mention, Zhu Shan Ying's family background was extraordinary, so they likely had even more concerns.

For young men and women to claim that they were innocent and pure... it would be hard for anyone to believe.

It was only reasonable for them to be cautious, and he could understand that.

Xue Jing stretched lazily and headed to the indoor swimming pool on the third floor to grind some more Swimming experience.

An hour later, he left the pool and went to the training room to cultivate the Coiled Dragon Technique and Shaking Armor Technique.

At 5 p.m., Xue Jing concluded his day's cultivation and rode back home.

The lazy cat, who had been lounging on the sofa and watching cartoons, heard the door open and glanced at the incoming Xue Jing. She didn't pay much attention at first.

But then she seemed to notice something, and her head swiveled a full 180 degrees like an owl, her gaze fixed on the glasses Xue Jing was wearing.

"Hmm?"

The corners of the cat's mouth, which looked very human-like, twitched.

She had a deep impression of these glasses, having been tripped up by them before...

"Teacher Wan, you're home."

Xue Jing pushed up his glasses and smiled as he walked forward.

However, the cat stood up, looking like she was bracing herself for battle. Her four white-gloved hands tilted backward, her fur stood on end, and her cat face was filled with wariness.

"What... What do you want to do?"

Xue Jing hesitated for a moment, unsure whether to say he wanted to or not.

He pinched his chin and mused, "Teacher Wan, you like watching cartoons so much. How about I perform a cosplay for you?"

The cat tilted her head, "Hmm?"

Xue Jing walked into the bathroom and searched for a while among the various bottles and jars by the sink but couldn't find any hair gel.

He thought for a moment, squeezed some shampoo into his hand, and rubbed his palms together before walking out of the bathroom and approaching the cat, looking down at her.

Just as the cat was bewildered by his actions, Xue Jing's pitch-black pupils suddenly turned silver-white, and his entire demeanor changed.

His aura became domineering and disdainful, as if he were a god who stood above and didn't understand the hearts of mortals.

He looked down at the cat, his expression indifferent, his voice low and calm as he slowly spoke, "No one stands above from the very beginning—not you, not me, and not even the gods."

He reached up and slowly removed his glasses, his hair, neither long nor short, falling over his eyes, releasing the aura of presence that had been suppressed all day.

At this moment, his godly aura, which was already intimidating, multiplied by ten or even nine times. The cat's emerald-like pupils constricted, and her entire body was stunned.

"This is... What?"

The cat was shocked, feeling as if she were truly facing a god, and she could hardly speak.

"But this empty throne above the heavens will also soon have an occupant."

Xue Jing's tone seemed to be tinged with divinity, becoming even more ethereal as he spoke. As he finished, he tossed his glasses aside and ran his hand through his hair.

His soft bangs transformed into a slicked-back style, and his perfect face was fully exposed, exuding a strong and alluring charm that was highly sexually attractive.

He looked down at the dumbfounded cat and said coldly, "From now on, I stand above the heavens."

[Someone has developed a strong liking for you, Charm Experience +662]



[Someone has developed a strong liking for you, Charm Experience +688]



[Someone has developed a devout worship for you, Charm Experience +1026]



"God..."

The cat stared at Xue Jing, her three-petaled mouth opening and closing as if she were muttering something.

Her tail swayed slightly behind her, and the platinum tail ring on it began to shine dazzlingly.

Suddenly, the cat's body scattered light dots, transforming into a human-shaped cat-eared girl with black hair.

Xue Jing opened his panel and paused when he saw the 'devout worship' prompt.

He reached out to pat Ning Feng Wan's head and smiled, "How does it feel?"

[Detecting divine substance, absorbing divinity...]



The moment he touched Ning Feng Wan, a prompt popped up on the panel, and divinity began to increase at a rate of several points per second.

The girl didn't reply but closed her eyes, holding onto Xue Jing's hand and pressing it against her cheek.

Her expression was peaceful and serene, like a baby being cradled by its mother, exuding a sense of obvious comfort.

"..."

Xue Jing raised his eyebrows slightly.

It seemed like he had used too much force... Had he accidentally charmed Teacher Wan silly?

After a few minutes of silence, Xue Jing looked at the panel, which had already reached 300 points but still hadn't stopped increasing in divinity. He found it a bit unbelievable.

Although he had expected to gain something from removing his glasses, he hadn't anticipated it would be this significant.

After a while longer, the divinity finally stopped increasing when it reached 518 points.

At this moment, Ning Feng Wan also slowly opened her eyes and looked at Xue Jing.

Xue Jing had now shed his silver-white eyes, and his godly aura dissipated, returning him to his usual self.

However, his hairstyle remained slicked back.

Ning Feng Wan's cheeks flushed, and she let go of Xue Jing's hand, covering her chest as if nothing had happened before lightly huffing, "Hmph, barely passable, I suppose."

Xue Jing smiled at her words and said gently, "Is that so? Looks like I'll have to keep working hard, then."

"What did you gain from this, Teacher Wan?"

Ning Feng Wan glanced at Xue Jing, her gaze complex and seemingly carrying more than usual.

She sighed softly, feeling her current state.

"The fusion has deepened, and I'm... much stronger now."

Ning Feng Wan spoke.

"I also gained a strange new ability."

"In Chinese, it would be translated as—Unconquered Lionheart."

...

At 8 p.m., Xue Jing left the house to keep his appointment.

The elite class students had agreed to treat him to dinner.

As Xue Jing walked towards the bus stop, he opened his panel and navigated to the divinity skill section.

[Twinborn Lv3 (Divinity required to upgrade: 518/500)]



Xue Jing clicked to upgrade.
