Keyboard Immortal

Mojard gave Zu An a confused look. He didn’t know if the latter really had just made a blind guess or if he was covering something up. He just felt that he couldn't really see through this person.

The Mermaid Queen realized what was going on and coldly said, “Your respected self is still someone with quite the reputation, and yet you are sneaking into a woman’s quarters in the night. Are you really not worried that you’ll make a fool of yourself once news of this gets out?”

Meanwhile, she secretly called on the guards outside. She needed to blow this matter as out of proportion as possible. If enough people saw what was going on, Mojard’s options would be greatly limited.

Unfortunately, there was no response at all from any of the guards outside no matter how she called out. Her heart sank.

Mojard laughed loudly. “The queen was previously able to set up a soundproofing barrier around the Four Way Palace; did you think this king couldn't do the same?”

“Just what do you want to do?” the Mermaid Queen asked on the surface, but her eyes darted around looking for a way to escape.

“Escape is prohibited here!” Mojard clearly saw what she was trying to do and immediately spoke this rule into existence.

The Mermaid Queen immediately felt her body become heavy. There seemed to be something intangible starting to restrict her. If she tried to run, that restriction would immediately tighten up.

“Did the queen really think that I would return empty-handed after coming all the way here?” Mojard sneered.

“I already explained to you that I wasn’t the assassin at the Four Way Palace. What are you trying to do?” As she spoke, the Mermaid Queen’s hand landed on the Deep Sea Harp’s strings.

“Both of us know what happened. That’s right, I don’t have anything proving that it was you for other people, but sometimes, no proof is needed in this world.” Mojard laughed sinisterly.

As he spoke, he leaped at the Mermaid Queen, leaving her shocked. She played her harp while telling Zu An and Peach, “You two, hurry and run!”

She knew she wasn’t Mojard’s match. But as long as these two could contact the people outside, Mojard wouldn’t dare to cross the line too far. Even so, the moment she said that, she remembered that Zu An was a swindler.

Why am I being worried about him at all?

She continued to play dozens of notes that floated in front of her to try and stop Mojard’s charge.

But she'd never expected Mojard to have other plans! It looked as if he was attacking her, but he suddenly changed directions and sent a palm smashing at Zu An.

His palm rapidly increased in size and slammed down at Zu An like Mt. Tai. Just the wind pressure alone was enough to shatter the chairs, tables, and vases in the room.

Peach wanted to run, but she couldn't move. Her body had already gone completely limp.

It’s over, it’s over… I’m going to be smashed into meat paste by this palm…

Yeah, the queen’s husband will be smashed into meat paste too. I wonder if the queen will be jealous if she sees that the two of us are pulverized together.

My queen, I really didn’t do it on purpose…

…

In that instant, all sorts of strange thoughts rushed into her head. She even found it a bit laughable herself. She was already about to die, and yet these were the kinds of things she was still thinking about!

Hm? Wait, why am I not dead yet?

She raised her head in confusion and saw that Mojard’s palm had already descended. But halfway to its destination, it was blocked by one hand from the queen's future husband.

Blocked?

Her eyes immediately went completely wide.

The queen’s future husband is that amazing?

It wasn’t just her, even the Mermaid Queen became a bit absent-minded. Even though she had guessed that he was mysterious, she hadn’t expected him to have hidden his strength that well!

Mojard’s expression changed greatly. He felt as if his mountainous palm had hit empty air. But his palm had clearly made contact with the other party’s hand!

However, he quickly realized that rather than empty space, there was a black hole there that sucked in all things. He even felt all of his internal ki becoming a bit unstable, as if it was going to pour out and leave him entirely. He exclaimed, “Just who are you?”

Even though the two of them had exchanged blows, Mojard discovered that his opponent’s cultivation was very, very high. This kind of strength was something only a few individuals could have, so there was no way he wouldn't recognize that person's name.

Zu An chuckled. “That seems like quite the popular question today.”

The Mermaid Queen rolled her eyes, but she mysteriously felt a bit more at ease. When Mojard appeared just now, she'd felt extremely tense. But now that she saw that the foolish guard was actually so strong, she suddenly didn’t feel worried anymore.

Even though he'd deceived her, for some reason, she trusted that he wouldn’t treat her badly. She didn’t have any proof, but perhaps it was just her natural woman’s intuition.

Mojard was stunned.

You should at least respect the question I’m asking, right? What are the two of you exchanging flirtatious looks for?

“So who are you?!” He secretly cursed this damned couple while gritting his teeth.

You have successfully trolled Mojard for +110 +110 +110…

“I want to answer you too, but it’s an answer I can’t give.” Zu An felt a bit depressed too. He hadn’t expected to experience this kind of issue in the spacetime fragment.

“Are you messing with me?!” Mojard’s face darkened. He started his soulspeak, “This place forbids…”

But midway through his sentence, he suddenly heard something else.

“What you lookin' at?”

“I’m looking at you, shithead!”

Mojard was speechless.

Peach blinked her large eyes, stunned. Why did she find this scene in front of her a bit hard to understand?

The Incestuous King was incredibly famous, known as one of the world’s most powerful individuals. Even though she didn’t know who the queen’s husband was, he was clearly also an extremely deep and unfathomable person. Shouldn’t a battle between two individuals like this have been world-shattering? Why did they sound more like two gangsters cursing each other on the streets?

The Mermaid Queen smiled. This was the same sentence that had stopped Mojard from using his skill when the guard saved her at the Four Way Palace. She'd been really puzzled as to why someone like Mojard would play such frivolous children's games. But now, it seemed that the sentence actually contained some kind of powerful law that perfectly countered Mojard’s soulspeak.

Mojard was even more experienced and knowledgeable than her. How could he still not know what was going on? He began, “You…”

“What you lookin’ at?”

“I’m looking at you, shithead!”

Mojard was speechless.

I wasn’t even planning to use soulspeak! Are you not even going to let someone speak normally?

You have successfully trolled Mojard for +119 +119 +119…

Zu An chuckled awkwardly. “Sorry, that was a conditioned reflex. Go ahead.”

Mojard gave him a look of lingering fear. When he was sure that Zu An wasn’t going to do it again, he tested the waters by asking, “Since you know a skill on this level, just which world's powerful being are you?”

After fighting in this world for many years, he didn’t know of such a person from the Fiend, Demon, Ocean, Human, Beast, or any other races’ outstanding figures.

The Mermaid Queen was startled. When she looked at Zu An, her expression became a bit gentler.

It was no wonder that he'd never said anything. So he came from a different world and would have to leave eventually!

He doesn’t want to hurt me, so that's why he always tried to maintain some distance.

He really is considerate, and yet I misunderstood him.
