A rare magical miracle in the world

```

"Ah..."

"Not only that," Bailuo raised his finger, "as long as you can force me to use Miracle Power, you win, and as long as you can defeat me, the position of Retainer is yours by right!"

"..." Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Even though it was a very ordinary statement and a fact, to the ears of the Lu Wei Family, it sounded so grating.

’I will not use any Miracle Power.’

’If you can force out my Miracle Power, you win.’

Naked contempt, how disdainful! Discover stories at empire

At this moment, for the first time in their lives, the Lu Wei Family felt the taste of humiliation. They had never thought that they would be looked down upon to such an extent!

"You are not my match."

However, the words that followed from Bailuo made the Lu Wei Family even more ashamed to the utmost: "Come at me together."

"You..."

"To actually, actually look down on us to this extent!"

"That’s too much."

Yaksha Princess, the youngest, felt humiliated by Bailuo’s contempt, and while biting her teeth, she could only hold back the tears in her eyes, "I want to challenge you."

"Yaksha!"

"Did you not hear what I said?"

Bailuo’s voice was filled with authority as he gazed at Yaksha Princess.

The domineering King, even without Miracle Power, still set off alarm bells in Yaksha Princess.

"You..."

"I wasn’t talking to you alone," Bailuo said, "I mean all of you, come at me together."

"Challenge me?"

"Since when," Bailuo’s voice made Yaksha Princess feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave, "do you, alone, qualify to challenge me?"

Pressure!

Increasing pressure step by step!

Old Luwei realized: ’He is provoking the youngsters to attack together?’

’No, not just that.’

’With all their might,’ Grandpa Luwei understood, ’so that’s it, using such tactics to make the children use all of their abilities, determined to kill him as they attack.’

The Lu Wei Family were nobles, they disdained ganging up on someone, as it was against a warrior’s honor.

But the Black Leather Book wanted them to come at him together, wanted Bailuo to fight the entire Luwei Family alone.

If the Luwei Family took turns and failed.

Bailuo might be able to command them to attack together, but if they could not cooperate perfectly and fight with all their might, they would still fail the mission.

Thus, Bailuo came up with the current plan.

Through scorn and humiliation, he made the Lu Wei Family angry and unwilling to accept, for only thus could they showcase their talents, using all means possible, just to make this King who stood above them, see their abilities!

"Don’t say anything unnecessary, I want to see your strength, a Retainer, is not just a little one who can talk big."

"..."

These words were clearly directed at Yaksha Princess.

The young girl bit her lower lip, her face turned red, but she dared not refute because Bailuo, with his status, had the right to lecture her.

’It should be about time.’

Bailuo appeared calm on the outside, but inside he was actually a bit nervous.

"You are right."

"If even you, not using Miracle Power, cannot be touched," Ghost Princess stood up, she unwrapped the crimson Long Tachi that had been bound in bandages, "we such trash! Simply have no right to follow the great King!"

’Right, right, that’s it, just like that!’

Watching the Lu Wei Family standing up from the ground, Bailuo let out a sigh of relief. He was worried that the Luwei Family lacked the nerve, being indifferent despite such provocation.

Now it’s good, very good.

’Come on, use all your abilities,’ Bailuo looked at the Master and took the Cross Sword from his hand, ’let’s have an accession ceremony under the witness of Miracle Power!’

"Snap!"

"Hm?!"

Out of the blue, Bailuo felt a gust of wind attacking him from the front. He instinctively swung his sword to block, and Miracle Power also flowed at this moment.

"Not good!"

Bailuo hurriedly suppressed the Miracle Power that protected him, barely pushing it back, only to be met with a Cross Longspear.

"Clang!"

"Boom!"

Bailuo blocked the Long Spear, but the sand beneath his feet shattered and cracked under the immense force.

’Damn it!’

’Is this the strength of the Luwei Family?’

Bailuo felt the force from the Cross Spear, and seeing Yellow Spring directly aiming for his head with a swing of his sword, was unwavering.

"Lu Wei Family, Yellow Spring!"

Yellow Spring’s voice, devoid of any emotion, was cold and casual, "A challenge, to our king."

"Ping!"

Bailuo casually parried Yellow Spring’s thrust, then, exerting force with his right hand, managed to press her into bending the knee. She could barely resist Bailuo, clutching her sword with both hands to maintain the deadlock.

Bailuo couldn’t use Miracle Power, but the permanent physical enhancements granted by the Miracle Power remained.

In other words, Bailuo’s physical fitness had reached the theoretical limit of biological possibility.

The so-called theoretical limit refers to the ultimate burst of strength, speed, and endurance that a creature can unleash without resorting to inner strength, magic power, mana, spiritual power, or fighting spirit.

Within Miracle Troop Type levels, the Heroic Level represents the zenith of this theoretical limit.

In other words, if Miracle Power is not utilized, relying solely on melee combat, the attributes of heroes, masters, kings, and legends are indistinguishable.

’Transcendent!’

However, Bailuo was somewhat surprised by the physical constitution of the Lu Wei Family: ’Setting others aside, the strength of this girl called Yellow Spring is nearing Transcendent Level.’

The power Bailuo could exert was essentially confined to Heroic Level without magic.

Fortunately, it was absolutely impossible for the Lu Wei Family’s physical fitness to match that of a hero.

As for Extraordinary and Transcendent levels, Bailuo didn’t take them seriously.

"Your name is Yellow Spring, huh," Bailuo said. "Nice name, but too weak."

"It seems I have failed."

Yellow Spring, wearing a bitter smile, struggled to hold her ground under Bailuo’s sword: "I thought with a surprise attack, I could discompose you, forcing you to use Miracle Power."

"Heh."

Bailuo too was startled, thankful for his quick reaction as he immediately realized Yellow Spring’s intention.

He had narrowly escaped failing the Black Leather Book’s mission.

But Bailuo didn’t blame Yellow Spring.

Because this was the correct approach!

Only in this way, with the Lu Wei Family resorting to any means necessary, exerting all their strength, employing every tactic, leveraging power, wit, and schemes, could they truly challenge Bailuo.

Only then would the ninth page of the Miracle recognize and validate the ceremony.

"You’re quite good, but you’ve lost."

Bailuo suppressed Yellow Spring with one hand and reached directly for the Cross Spear with the other, prepared to snatch the weapon: "I’m more familiar with the Lu Wei Family’s spear techniques than you."

"Whoo!"

Just as Bailuo said, Yellow Spring found that every avenue of breakthrough or retreat was sealed off by him.

"This is bad."

Yellow Spring’s mind raced, calculating responses, but no matter what she tried, she couldn’t escape Bailuo’s blockade.

"Chiu chiu."

"Hidden weapons!"

Bailuo, with his keen perception, immediately calculated the trajectory of the hidden weapons and prepared to catch them barehanded...

"Ping Ping!!"

With his Cross Sword, Bailuo deflected two throwing stars, noting the green traces on the blade.

"Poisoned."

Bailuo thought of the Black Leather Book’s mission, which forbade the use of Miracle Power.

He had intended to catch the poisoned darts barehanded, but his instinctive caution made him alter his move and deflect them instead.

It was fortunate he did so!

Had Bailuo actually caught them, the poison would certainly not have affected him, but his ’Passive’ would definitely have been triggered.

[Corrosion Resistance]

[Toxin Immunity]

Should these passives have activated, the ninth page of the Miracle would have ruled out Bailuo’s use of Miracle Power as a failure.

"Underhanded attacks, huh."

Unable to capture Yellow Spring, the Yaksha Princess’s use of hidden weapons afforded her a chance to break away. Now, pursuing her would be difficult.

"You exerted all efforts, resolved to kill me, as Your Majesty instructed."

Yaksha Princess remembered the earlier scolding from Bailuo—she was a bit vindictive: "Your Majesty, did I do poorly?"

"Very well."

After Yellow Spring’s ambush, the poison dart was a sly move, intended to compel his use of Miracle Power. Nice tactics.

"But is this the best you can do?"

Bailuo looked at the other three: "Only two of you have acted, one after the other, and the coordination is lacking. If this is the extent of your capabilities, retainers? A joke!"

"!!!!"
