Chapter 616: 7 Steps Away, the Gun is Fast
"it's me."
"Hanabi."
The Fool Girl, who always had a grin on her lips, now had a serious look on her face. “If you haven’t forgotten me, come out to see me instead of hiding away.”
In his right hand, he held the fox mask that had accompanied him for many years. In the dome of the universe, petals of the sky gathered together and fell, revealing a cherry-haired girl standing on the stamens of an ice flower.
That glance was only a few thousand meters away, but it seemed to span hundreds or even longer Amber Ages.
Sakura just stared at Hanabi indifferently. The strong pressure was a thousand times more terrifying than all the orders she had faced combined. The extremely cold ice penetrated Hanabi's ankles, and blood dripped down the ice cones and bloomed into blood-red roses.
That was not a look in the eyes, but sword intent.
A trace of bright red blood flowed out of the corner of Hua Huo's mouth. She sneered and said, "Throwing a tantrum? You are probably too old to do such things. I thought you would be so happy after seeing An Ming, but it seems that I thought too much!"
Her cherry hair fluttered, and her pair of elegant violet eyes were no longer willing to look at the fireworks, but instead focused on the petals that continued to bloom in front of her.
Countless miniature planes could be clearly seen in every inch between the petals. Hanabi's pupils suddenly shrank. It was not until this moment that she realized what a true moment was.
Turn countless worlds into a single moment, and use countless moments to build the throne of the moment, thus opening up a brand new destiny...?
This crazy idea would be considered too happy even by believers of joy. Hanabi couldn't believe that this was actually something Sakura would do. What on earth happened?
Hanabi's face turned pale due to blood loss. If the ice cone was aimed at her neck, that instant would have been enough to kill her.
Her authority was not good at close-range confrontations, not to mention that Sakura was much stronger now. But even so - she believed that the former Sakura had not disappeared.
This stubborn woman must be acting. Hua Huo gritted her teeth and pulled her ankle out along the ice spike. She didn't care about others, because she was the Envoy of Pleasure.
But that was Sakura, the companion who had accompanied her to the end on Edo Star. They agreed to find Anming together, and then compete fairly to see who can truly get Anming's love.
What is this now? Hanabi doesn't need Sakura's charity. If you really love her, come and snatch Anming away and tell him your love in person, idiot!
How could there be such a stupid woman?
Hanabi endured the pain and took another step towards Sakura. She knew Sakura best, so from the moment the Star Train arrived at Edo Star, the one who remained in the train was no longer the real Hanabi.
She knew that Ying would not have the heart to let An Ming make a choice, so that idiot would make the decision for An Ming.
Hanabi's true body had been lurking outside the super-dimensional star abyss for a long time, waiting for something unexpected to happen, and as expected, the Star Train was instantly split into different dimensions, which was exactly Sakura's style.
"Drag An Ming into a separate dimension only to prevent him from stopping your ceremony of ascending to the throne."
"—!"
Sakura still didn't answer. What answered Hanabi was an even colder ice cone, but this time the ice cone pierced only the fake Hanabi clone.
"Are you anxious because of what I said? This is not like you, Sakura-chan," Hanabi's lips curled up with a confident smile that belonged to a fool. Now that she had come here, she had never thought that she could easily use words to convince Sakura to go back with her.
Sakura's eyes drooped slightly, her gaze cold.
The sword intent instantly traveled through time and space, cutting Hanabi's body into two in an instant.
"Let me guess~"
"You're afraid because you don't speak, right?"
Thousands of masks are suspended in the air. This is the joyful theater of the Thousand Faced Fool. As long as the promotion ceremony is not completed, Sakura is just a stronger messenger.
Hanabi knew that this was too optimistic, as this was not a small amount of strength.
"You don't speak... because you're afraid that I can tell what you're thinking, right?" Perhaps Hanabi is the person who understands Sakura the best in the entire universe. After all, they were once real rivals.
What returned to Hanabi was an even colder sword intent. As expected of Qianying's former owner, that sword intent had already reached perfection.
Sakura's swordsmanship is comparable to An Ming's, not to mention that the entire Edo planet is now the incarnation of the instant realm. It is undoubtedly a pipe dream for Hanabi to defeat Sakura in the instant.
Joy is optimism, but being optimistic at this time is foolish.
Hanabi only made a slight move and she knew clearly that she would be beaten to the side of the road by Sakura. After all, Sakura still held back, and the Fool's spiritual realm was indeed very suitable for escaping.
She is not An Ming, and she cannot use any intimate skills on Ying, let alone get close to the "throne".
As expected, in the end, it was still only up to An Ming himself to solve the problem...Hanabi was inevitably a little discouraged, but fortunately it was not without gain, at least she learned that Sakura was indeed hiding something.
This guy is indeed still the same as before. Once he has something on his mind, it will show on his face, so he deliberately puts on an expressionless look.
Sakura said nothing because she knew Hanabi as well. If she opened her mouth, Hanabi would notice something, and that would be a consequence she could not accept.
As expected...the best way to fight a fool is to ignore every word she says and use cold violence against her.
The Fool's fighting power is at least halved without his mouth, and Hanabi, who cannot launch verbal attacks, is really powerless, but she has no other way to deal with Sakura.
The next moment, countless instantaneous cracks appeared all over Fireworks' body, tearing the entire space apart.
All Sakura left for Hanabi was her back. The moment the cracks merged into one, Hanabi was exiled to an unknown dimension by Sakura.
The reason why she was able to find the true body of the fireworks among so many fireworks was very simple. She didn't need to look for the true body. She just had to throw all the fireworks into different planes.
Although Hanabi really wanted to say "I'll be back", that sounded too similar to a famous comedian's line, so in the end she just watched Sakura's back getting farther and farther away until the rift leading to the other dimension slowly closed.
The plane that An Ming was in must be the world that Sakura had prepared most carefully. Hanabi knew that it would be impossible to enter without Qianying as the key, unless someone could forcefully open a door outside the plane.
But who can open the door under the instant ban?
The falling fireworks, on the other hand, had a very clear mind. She sent An Ming to a separate dimension, perhaps not because she was afraid that An Ming would stop her from being promoted. After all, Ying must have known that An Ming had no reason to stop her...
What the hell is that?
Just to create a space to be alone with An Ming?
Hanabi couldn't guess what Sakura was thinking, nor could she see what kind of heart was hidden behind the throne covered in ice.
Maybe time can really change a person, but Hanabi never thought that Sakura was the kind of person who would be changed by time.
"Fortunately she's not a yandere..." Hanabi breathed a sigh of relief without leaving a trace. Everything else was fine, but she was afraid that even someone with Sakura's personality could turn into a crazy yandere. If that happened, a fun-loving person like her would have no way out.
Based on the previous encounter, we can draw a basic conclusion. Sakura has no chance of winning in a one-on-one fight now. Even if she brings in all the dream girls to join in a group fight, the best she can end up with is a draw.
Of course, this is all based on the premise that Sakura has not yet succeeded in her promotion. Once Sakura ascends to the throne, it will become a one-sided beating.
As expected, only An Ming could deal with the girl in his dream. Hua Huo touched the wound on his ankle that was pierced by the icicle, and was surprised to find that it had disappeared.
Can Setsuna even do something like this? Hanabi thought of Sakura's expression at that time. What a weird guy... He clearly didn't want to hurt her, but he still pretended to be cold.
No matter what, the most urgent task is to get An Ming out of the Qianying plane first, but then again, the Qianying plane cannot be entered without Qianying, so it would be ridiculous to find An Ming.
"Wait a minute..."
Only then did Hanabi have time to observe the surrounding environment. Although it had been a long time since the last performance, she still recognized that this was the Edo Star Theater.
"Hello, dear Miss Fireworks, as long as you complete 9999 performances of the [Fireworks] opera in this plane, you will get the key to leave."
The butler robot in a tuxedo introduced the simple rules of the plane to Hanabi. When the stage curtain opened, the audience seats were filled with clapping robot bots in various clothes. After seeing Hanabi, they all applauded in unison.
The corners of Hanabi's mouth twitched slightly. As expected...only her former rivals knew best how to torture her. Sakura really had Hanabi under control, knowing that she absolutely could not endure another performance of the 9999 play.
"If I shoot, won't you explode?"
Hanabi took out a colorful little pistol, pointed it at the butler robot, and pulled the trigger.
The bullet was fired in mid-air at a speed visibly slow to the naked eye. The robot made a "yeah" gesture with two fingers, just in time to catch the bullet.
Hanabi: “?”
"Your gun is too slow."
As soon as the butler robot finished speaking, it was kicked in the head. Hanabi muttered speechlessly: "Seven steps away, the gun is fast, and within seven steps, the foot is fast and painful."
The effect of the instant on an individual is just a weakening of authority, but not of physical strength. After all, Hanabi is an envoy, so the power of this kick is considerable.
The robot, which was kicked so hard that sparks were coming out, fell down with a clang. Before exploding, it added a few words incoherently: "Bring...bring the party."
Hanabi curled her lips, not understanding why Sakura thought that this plane could really stop her, until she pushed open the door and saw the void outside and tens of thousands of ice cone swords aimed at the door.
"This opera is so good that even dogs can't...perform it! It's an opera, and the Fireworks Opera can be performed with your eyes closed!"
Hanabi gave an awkward but polite smile, silently closed the door and returned to the theater. Sakura really showed no mercy at all.
It's just ten thousand fireworks, it's not a difficult task.
Thinking of this, Hanabi raised the fox mask, intending to summon 9998 Hanabi to complete the performance with her. Anyway, Sakura didn't say that she had to perform in person.
"Why are you in a place like this?"
For some reason, Hua Huo seemed to hear Fu Xuan's voice and wondered how a pink-haired dwarf could suddenly appear.
With a "pop", the little foot wearing the Xianzhou classical short boots kicked directly on Hua Huo's buttocks, "You just called me a shorty in your mind, right?"
Fu Xuan's tone was slightly chilling, as if he was going to whip Hua Huo's butt hard with the red-hot Lifeless Sword in the next second. Hua Huo felt an inexplicable tightness in her heart when she heard it.
When I turned around, I saw Fu Xuanzhen appeared out of thin air, and there was a mysterious door next to him. The number on the top of the door started to decrease from the initial 42.
The moment she met Fu Xuan's eyes, Hua Huo actually had the illusion that all her thoughts were seen through. Could it be that Fu Xuan could really hear her inner voice?
"Don't think about it, just follow me first."
Fu Xuan grabbed Hua Huo's wrist and didn't have time to explain the situation to her. He rushed directly to the door with her.
Compared with the previous smooth time-travel experience, the feeling of forced departure this time was like putting your head into a washing machine and spinning it 360 degrees for six hours. When the fireworks came out, you almost vomited.
"Is it really done?"
After putting down her staff, Heita blinked in surprise. She didn't expect that the cooperation between her and Fu Xuan was so perfect. Now Liuying didn't have to take the risk to explore the plane coordinates personally.
This "eye" is truly the eye of destiny.
"I... mouth area—"
Ms. Fireworks sneaked into the corner alone and spit out colorful little rainbows. The experience was not much different from An Ming's first simulation. Now she finally understood why An Ming's expression was so subtle after each simulation.
If it were her, she would have been dizzy before the simulation.
"Tell me, what did you see after you found Sakura?" Fu Xuan was not so stingy. He handed Hanabi a cup of sweet tea and didn't stop until Lady Hanabi took a sip and danced with joy because of the spiciness.
It is said that a fool's blushing is not just due to love, it may also be due to spicy food.
After secretly muttering a few words about Fu Xuan being a tsundere and holding grudges in her heart, Hanabi continued, "Ying is using the entire Super Dimensional Abyss as a base to build the throne. Judging from the progress, it shouldn't take a few days for the promotion ceremony to begin."
"Strange..." Fu Xuan frowned slightly. She couldn't guess what Ying was going to do. "I didn't predict a future that would be unfavorable to An Ming."
To be precise, there will be no problem with the future of the entire Starry Sky Train on Edo Star. On the contrary, everyone will gain unexpected benefits.
From the perspective of divination, this is simply an upgraded copy without any side effects.
But...this isn't right.
"It won't be so troublesome if we find An Ming. Can you locate An Ming?"
Fu Xuan located the black tower and opened the door. Liuying led her to charge directly with fireflies. Huahuo had no idea how to lose. Even the locked plane had to be pried open for you.
"It takes time," Fu Xuan said succinctly, indicating that it is not that simple. Unlike other planes, the Qianying plane is located in the core area of the Super-Dimensional Star Abyss.
"Before Sister Xuan'er finds the coordinates, I will continue to go to other planes to meet up with everyone."
"what about me?"
"Stick your butt out and wait for me to spank you."
A new volume is coming, when will the perfect clearness come! QAQ
