Chapter 817 - 274: Wait Until I Find My Disciple Hong Guo

"Su Yue, you seem to be quite enjoying this, how about... I hit you a couple more times?"

Lu Xiliang was utterly shocked by Su Yue’s expression.

Spitting blood from his mouth, yet looking as if he’s quenching a long thirst, is this kid sure there’s nothing wrong with his psyche?

Masochism?

Such a pity that his brand-new white shirt is stained red.

"No... don’t hit me yet!"

Su Yue originally felt a euphoric suffocation.

At this moment, he felt the Qi Blood pressure coming from Lu Xiliang.

This is a peak rank-five Martial Artist, though as an auxiliary, he’s quite weak; when it comes to fighting, it still hurts.

The key is that the Dusk Clock’s strikes are different from ordinary people’s.

The reason Su Yue feels great is because the Dusk Clock broke his realm barrier.

Although it has no physical form, Su Yue can mentally visualize it.

This realm barrier looks like a big watermelon.

The crack opened this time is about one-fifth.

How could he not feel great!

Not only is it physically satisfying, it’s also mentally refreshing.

At least he’s no longer completely confused, finally finding some opportunity for a breakthrough.

So this barrier needs external force to pressure it.

But this absolutely isn’t realized by getting beaten by others; Su Yue still needs to study!

Bone washing took him half a day, only working at the Grandmaster level.

Also, he cultivated too quickly, so the barrier is much thicker than others’.

"Young man, I thank you!"

At this point, Lu Jianghao walked over.

Though not so old he couldn’t stand, his body was clearly not that robust.

Holding the Dusk Clock in his hand, the old man was trembling all over.

It’s saved.

Even though the clock core can’t maintain its durability permanently after activation,

it’s possible to extend its time somewhat.

The Dusk Clock being able to perish in its activated state is a form of respect for it.

Without having lived through that era, one simply can’t understand Lu Jianghao’s sentiments.

Even Sima Lingling and Lu Xiliang can’t comprehend such glory.

"You are... you’re the master’s mentor, right? Hello, Teacher!"

"It was just a small effort; it’s what I should have done!"

Su Yue stood up, quickly humbling himself.

From Lu Jianghao’s eyes, he saw the persistence and dedication of older generations of martial artists.

Such sentiment is always worthy of respect from the younger generation.

"Thank you, I thank you on its behalf!"

Lu Jianghao nodded again at Su Yue.

This time, he was grateful to Su Yue on behalf of the Dusk Clock.

"Please, Teacher, don’t say that; I dare not accept it!"

Su Yue stepped forward, quickly supporting the old man.

As the mentor of my mentor, what should the hierarchy be... forget it, just call him Teacher. We’re not within a sect, there aren’t so many rules.

"Su Yue, take a look at your left wrist!"

Lu Jianghao looked at Su Yue and suddenly smiled contentedly.

"Wrist?"

Upon hearing, Su Yue raised his wrist blankly.

Sima Lingling and Lu Xiliang also looked at Su Yue’s wrist; since the mentor mentioned it, there must be something amiss.

"This is... this..."

Su Yue nearly collapsed.

Indeed.

On his left wrist, there is indeed something.

Everyone has attended kindergarten, during breaks, kids bored out their minds would draw various famous watch designs on each other’s wrists.

Crooked and messy, with the hour and minute hand always pointing at 9 and 6, or pointing at 12 and 6, the second hand drawn randomly.

Exactly!

On Su Yue’s wrist now appears such an embarrassing design.

Pure blue color, identical to blue ballpoint pen marks.

No watch strap, just the dial, and not very regular either.

What’s going on with this?

Su Yue abruptly raised his head, quickly seeking answers from Lu Jianghao with his gaze.

The old man must know.

Lu Xiliang, on the other hand, furrowed his brow, looking at Su Yue curiously, the subtext seeming to ask: Su Yue, my little friend, just how old are you!

"This is the Dusk Clock’s reward.

"Earlier, as you spit blood from the backlash, it was actually the dusk radar shattering your realm barrier. Even though you hadn’t reached the Qi Blood critical point, the realm barrier was always there.

"Yet you obviously reached the critical point, but didn’t break through immediately; that’s a bit strange. Maybe for those who surpass the Qi ring, the realm barrier is too thick!"

Lu Jianghao explained.

Sima Lingling nodded; she had heard that activators seem to be able to gain some opportunities.

Lu Xiliang suddenly understood.

So the realm barrier was broken; no wonder Su Yue appeared as if he’d just finished a grand swordsman session.

Su Yue also nodded.

In his heart, he’d actually already guessed.

"As for the pattern on your wrist, it’s actually the Dusk Clock’s blessing of three-second invincibility!

"Compared with shattering the realm barrier, this is the real opportunity."

Lu Jianghao gripped Su Yue’s arm as if looking at a newborn baby.

How many years have passed.

The invincible clock finally reemerges.

Not easy at all.

He thought he would never see this pattern again in his lifetime.

It truly is fortunate.

"Three-second invincibility?

"But the books say only the Dusk Bearer can release an invincible shield, don’t they?"

Su Yue was taken aback.

At the same time, his heart raced wildly.

This skill is simply heavenly defying.

"You’re right, but as an activator, you’re unrelated to the Dusk Bearer.

"This three-second invincibility can be triggered simply by using Qi Blood; you can activate it anytime, anywhere.

"In desperate situations, three-second invincibility can save your life."

Lu Jianghao added.

"Wow, this is like carrying a protective charm with me!"

Su Yue stroked the childish dial intently.

This is truly a precious treasure.

Didn’t expect to gain such a divine skill today; not a bad harvest at all.
