Chapter 59: The Heart of Moonlight

  Xie Pu lifted a silver breastplate with electric currents flashing from the bottom of the treasure chest and excitedly showed it to Le Ga.

  "Electric attribute is one of the rarer ones among the five auxiliary attributes. This attribute can produce a counter-attacking splash effect, which is very advantageous in battle. That's not bad..."

  He suddenly paused, looked carefully, and then sighed faintly, "But you can't wear it for the time being. At least you need to be able to control tenth-order Dou Qi."

  Lei Ga's expression turned gloomy, and the joy he had just gotten from getting a leather-wrapped package also faded away.

  "I may never be able to wear it in this lifetime..."

  Ryuga was plunged into deep despair, thinking that his fourth-stage aura had yet to break through its limits, and after so many battles, his strength hadn't increased in the slightest.

  Xie Pu furrowed his brow, casually tossing the Electric Attribute Armor back into the box, and walked solemnly in front of Leiga.

  "Give me the Lunar Grass."

  "Alright, boss."

  Lei stretched out his hand from the cortex package and took out the moon demon grass, handing it to Xie Pu's hand. He had never seriously thought about what Xie Pu wanted to do with the moon demon grass, only roughly thinking that it was used to make money.

  The moon demon grass was taken out of the package, and its bright light immediately flowed into the room like water, its soft glow making even the magical candles pale in comparison.

  Xie Pu looked at the Moon Demon Grass in his hand and sighed, saying: "So this is what the Moon Demon Grass looks like."

  "Boss, are you seeing it for the first time too?" Lai Ka asked in puzzlement.

  Xie Pu smiled and said, "That's right, this kind of grass is extremely rare. If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have let you take such a great risk to complete Xu Lingtian's task."

  As he spoke, Xie Pu roughly plucked the black petals of the Moon Demon Flower and casually threw them to the ground, leaving only the flower core where a Moon Heart radiating pure light remained.

  "Boss!"

  Lei Ga stared at the broken black petals, speechless with shock. The thing he had gone to great pains to obtain was...

  "Open your mouth."

  Xie Pu's face sank as he commanded.

  Lei Ga was puzzled in his heart, but he didn't ask more questions and obediently opened his mouth.

  Xie Pu directly stuffed the Moon Flower Heart into Le Ga's mouth and said fiercely: "Swallow it, dare to spit it out and I'll beat you to death."

  With his strength of killing heroic undead in seconds, this sentence is not exaggerated at all.

  It wasn't until this moment that Leiga realized, the precious Moon Demon Grass was specially given to him by Xie Pu. He felt a surge of gratitude in his heart, and hastily closed his mouth, swallowing the Moon's Heart into his belly with great force.

  But as soon as it slid down his throat, Lui felt like he couldn't catch his breath. The seemingly smooth round ball was icy cold to the bone and extremely difficult to swallow, just like swallowing a real moon.

  It's probably not as difficult to swallow the moon as it is now, after all, the moon is too high, and after a few attempts, there's every reason to give up.

  But the moon's heart cannot be abandoned. The moon's heart cannot be given up. Lei forced himself to shut his mouth tightly and swallowed hard.

  The pain brought by the Moon Heart was extremely intense, and Leiga felt that something in his body was being drawn out by the strange power of the Moon Heart, from the liver, spleen, stomach to the heart and lungs, all were affected, and the severe pain was continuous.

  Just a few seconds later, Leiga was drenched in sweat, his hands and feet were icy. The Moon Flower Heart was stuck in his throat, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't swallow it down.

  Something inside him accelerated the transfer, and Leiga only felt that a high-speed channel was opened from his chest cavity to his throat. The channel was extremely hot, and even someone as strong-willed as him couldn't help but let out a low groan.

  The moon's essence shot out a radiance from Leica's throat, and it grew brighter and brighter, the gentle and soft nature disappeared, transforming into a dazzling small sun.

  The intensity of the light was so strong that even Lei Ga himself couldn't open his eyes. He felt the things inside his body buzzing and rushing about, as if they were going to burst out of his throat and escape into the sky. He gritted his teeth desperately, but his legs gave way beneath him and he knelt down on the ground. He refused to give in so easily, covering his mouth with both hands.

  He persisted for a few more minutes, and the pain of being pulled in his chest finally stopped. However, the moonlight in his throat gradually swelled up, its heat and brightness reaching unprecedented heights.

  This feeling is like... going to explode...

  Leiga could no longer bear it, he suddenly raised his head and let out a loud roar towards the dome, his voice was like a dragon's chant, shaking the eardrums. A dazzling golden light immediately burst from his throat, directly shattering the roof, rushing into the night sky, illuminating the entire black night as bright as daybreak.

  The roar and golden light lasted for half a minute before completely disappearing. Ryuga immediately fainted to the ground, and the night sky also gradually returned to normal.

  "This little guy..."

  Xie Pu walked out of the ruins, dusting off his clothes and looking up at the quiet night sky. A relaxed smile appeared on his wrinkled face, "Haha, I actually managed to stop the rain..."

  When Leiga opened his eyes again, the first thing he saw was the ceiling of the tavern's attic.

  A crow perched on his chest, and the scene was like a reversal of time.

  "Brother Crow... good morning."

  Lei Ga realized that his voice was a bit hoarse, he tried hard to recall the events before he fainted, and remembered that he finally spat out the Moon Flower Heart, and couldn't help but worry.

  "Wow!"

  The crow cocked its head and stared at him, letting out a cry as soon as he came to, as if it was sending a message to Shep.

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, it wasn't long before Xie Pu walked into the attic with a stern face, still holding a black coarse cloth garment in his hand.

  "Get up, eat, work, a hundred repetitions of tables, chairs, boards and wine cups!"

  Xie Pu threw his clothes onto Le Ga's face.

  Lei Ga's subconscious hand reached out to grab his clothes, astonishingly discovering that his movements were more agile than ever before, and exceptionally light, without any accumulated pain or pressure - it was as if he had completely changed bodies. He suddenly froze on the bed.

  Xie Pu crossed his arms in front of his chest and asked fiercely: "Didn't you hear what I said?"

  Lei Ga clenched his fists and muttered: "I feel like I'm not myself..."

  Shepard's face turned even uglier, "Whoever you are, get out of bed and put on your pants, be my partner - unless you don't want to do it anymore."

  Lega hastily put on his clothes and jumped down from the bed. He remembered that it was the same set of clothes last time, but they were already torn beyond recognition in the battle.

  His legs firmly planted on the floor, Rega's confusion in his heart did not dissipate at all. In a daze, there was a feeling of having happened before, but with some differences.

  Is it really a reversal of time? Back to the first day as a tavern waiter?

  Xie Pu let out a cold laugh from his nostrils, sarcastically saying: "You slept for three whole days and nights, if there was an evaluation for the laziest person on the Four Kings Continent, you would definitely get first place."

  Three days and three nights!?!

  Lei Ga almost didn't call out, "Boss, are you kidding me? I clearly felt like I just slept for a bit."

  "Kidding? With an empire this big, I'm the kind of person who would joke with his own buddies?"

  Xie Pu glared at him and said angrily, "After you fainted, I carried you back, and my waist still hurts now! In these three days, it was me alone who moved all the goods from Xu Lingtian's house, selling what should be sold, keeping what should be kept, and sealing what should be sealed——"

  "Wow!"

  The crow jumped in front of Shep's eyes, constantly twisting its body.

  "Oh, right! And don't forget about Wu Ya's help. It was just the two of us who worked ourselves to death moving all that stuff back, while you were upstairs sleeping soundly!"

  Xie Pu clenched his fists and puffed out his chest, getting angrier by the second. "This store, are you the boss or am I the boss?!"

  "Boss, of course you're the boss."

  It seems that all of this wasn't time reversal after all. Laga slightly bowed his head, smiling as he said: "You've really had a hard time taking care of me during this period."

  Lei Ga's respectful attitude made Xie Pu somewhat uncomfortable, he hummed and continued: "Do you think that's all that happened in these three days? The villagers of Dusk Village rushed to the store, crying and shouting to find their noble young master. After finally driving away one wave, Dusty Village came with a child and a long-legged woman, insisting on seeing their Raven Lord. I said the Raven Lord was dead, and the boy cried on the spot. The long-legged woman questioned fiercely if it was me who did it. Damn it! The Raven Lord has been dead for twenty years, what does it have to do with me!"

  "Dustmire Village?"

  Lei Ga immediately knew who the child and Long Legs were that She Pu was talking about. "The boy is called Shi Dong, the long-legged woman is called Du Lan Di, she's the village chief of Chen Ni Village. The Crow Lord they're talking about is probably me, this matter is really a long story..."

  "I'm in no mood to listen to your stories now!"

  Xie Pu discontentedly said: "In order to make that boy happy, the long-legged woman even ordered ten cups of milk, and also inquired about your information from me. I actually forgot to charge her for telling her about you sleeping on the attic. They left in a hurry, without paying for the milk either. This debt must be counted on your head!"

  Lei Ga blinked in confusion, "Miss Du Lan shouldn't be someone who would welch on a debt, how could she have run away?"

  Xie Pu rolled her eyes, "That long-legged woman heard you were sleeping and insisted on going upstairs to see you. I think she must have lifted your quilt, otherwise she wouldn't have escaped with a red face."

  "What?!"

  Lei Ga was startled, "You let her into my room? I'm naked!"

  "Wow!"

  The crow rushed to add a cry, as if saying that the long-legged woman had indeed lifted his quilt, and it was clear with its bird eyes.

  "You're neither short nor lacking, what can she do even if she sees you?"

  Xie Pu curled up her mouth and said with a big smile: "I'd rather let other women see it, but no one wants to see it."

  Lei Ga was at a loss, last time being taken advantage of by Hong Luo Lan at least didn't lose out, he got back what he should have gotten. But this time he really lost big! Du Lan Di must be taking revenge on him for seeing through her disguise last time and not being able to humiliate him at the village meeting, it must be that.

  Alright, Miss Dulan, things between us are far from over.
