Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2755

1268: Bone Prison
Zuan stepped onto the bridge, his surroundings free from the impenetrable attacks. For a moment, he crouched there, gasping for air.
Isabella, overjoyed, ran over, “Brother Zu!”
She pulled out various elixirs and stuffed them into Zuan’s mouth.
Zuan chuckled. This little girl was truly kind. Although he possessed powerful recovery abilities, he couldn’t bear to refuse her kindness, especially since her elixirs were truly useful.
He had intended to receive them with his hands, but she couldn’t wait to feed them directly. Her delicate fingers touched her hot lips, and Isabella’s heart skipped a beat.
But it was too awkward to withdraw his hand suddenly. He suppressed his embarrassment and asked, “Brother Zu, are you feeling better now?”
“These elixirs are magical to begin with, and with your kindness and prayers, how could I possibly be feeling any better?” Zuan regretted the words as soon as they left his mouth. After surviving such a catastrophe, it was inevitable that he’d been a bit reckless. It was all because he’d been used to teasing those around him, but Isabella was like a little sister, so it wasn’t appropriate.
Isabella’s heart raced, and she quickly retracted her finger. “Brother Zu, I’m glad you’re back.”
At this, Yanhua said with a half-smile, “I’m injured too, so why didn’t you give me the elixir?”
“S-sorry.” Isabella was momentarily embarrassed, fumbling to find an elixir and handing it to him.
Yanhua sighed, “You just fed him yourself, and you handed it to me? How can you treat me differently?”
“Ah…” Isabella’s face flushed crimson. For a moment, she didn’t know what to do, wishing there was a hole in the ground to crawl into.
Zuan glared at Yanhua. “Alright, stop teasing me, little girl! Why don’t you calm down and recover?”
Yanhua’s eyes flickered. “Then how long are you going to hold me? I’m a little girl too. My mind is in turmoil right now, and I can’t even calm down and recover.”
Zuan: “…”
Only then did he realize that he had been holding Yanhua tightly in his arms until now. It was all because of those whips that had just struck like divine punishment, and he had been holding her tightly to protect her. Now that the formation had vanished, he hadn’t even realized it.
Now, after hearing her words, he finally felt the warmth and tenderness of her embrace. She looked so graceful, a girl’s figure wouldn’t have been possible.
“Sorry,” Zuan said, hastily releasing her.
Seeing this, Isabella couldn’t help but chuckle. Even Brother Zu was teasing Yanhua, so it made her feel better.
“It’s okay if you don’t let go. I don’t mind.” Yanhua’s lips curled slightly, still remembering how desperately he’d protected her.
Isabella’s heart skipped a beat. Was Sister Yanhua professing her love for Brother Zu?
She glanced nervously at Zuan, and when he didn’t react, she felt a strange sense of relief. Then, a wave of self-reproach followed, asking herself how she could have entertained such a thought.
Zuan coughed softly, “Now that your injuries are healed, let’s continue on.”
Isabella’s elixirs proved effective. The deep wounds on her body, visible to the bone, had completely healed, and even the wounds to her soul had been healed. Her mental strength was even stronger than before.
The two women nodded in agreement and followed him towards the other side.
Stepping on the bridge of light beneath their feet, Isabella marveled. Yanhua couldn’t help but ask, “How did you manage to subdue those eight chains just now?”
“I have an ability where I can acquire the corresponding abilities of certain objects by touching them,” Zuan replied, warily scanning his surroundings for any sudden monsters.
“If such a miraculous ability exists in the world, then wouldn’t you be able to acquire every ability in the world?” Yanhua was startled.
“It’s not that simple. I need to pay a price to learn the corresponding abilities. The more powerful the ability, the astronomical the price is. I can’t learn it at all. For example, if it weren’t for the credit card Isabella gave me, I wouldn’t be able to learn it and then unlock the formation.” Zuan handed the black credit card to Isabella, “Luckily you have this. I almost forgot to return it to you just now.”
Isabella smiled and said, “Brother Zu, keep this with you first. We have to face many dangers now. This credit card can not only provide credit points or universal currencies of various worlds, but also provide the negative costs required for various skills. I believe it will be useful to you.” Fireworks
widened his eyes instantly: “What is the limit of your credit card?”
“There is no specific limit.”
“???”
“My grandfather gave it to me. This seems to be an unlimited credit card. He said that with the wealth of the Universal Chamber of Commerce, any price can be paid.” Isabella has a pure heart. She didn’t show off and just said what her grandfather said.
Fireworks couldn’t help but sigh, “How enviable! This is just a white, rich, and beautiful woman casually showing off.”
Although both were the daughters of renowned lands, their financial resources were far inferior to those of the Universal Chamber of Commerce. Moreover, with the events of the Dream Land now underway, things had completely changed.
“I’m not showing off,” Isabella said, a little embarrassed. “Brother Zu, you saved me. Actually, this credit card should have been given to you, but unfortunately, my grandfather bound it to my soul, so I can’t give it to anyone else. But as long as I’m with you, you can use it.”
Zuan smiled faintly. “I’m already very satisfied to have temporary access. Thank you.”
Many of his abilities required rage points, and now that they were completely depleted, this credit card was a lifesaver.
A credit card like this would be a top-tier magical weapon in any universe, but Isabella was too young to protect such a treasure, so her grandfather had made this arrangement for her safety.
Seeing that he didn’t seem to mind, Isabella blushed, visibly relieved.
After chatting for a while, the three finally arrived at the other side and found that the terrain here was like a mountain with the upper half of the peak cut off. There was a flat land in the middle and bottomless chasms on all sides.
In the middle of the flat land, there was a bone cage. A middle-aged man was sitting cross-legged inside. He was really elegant and handsome, and looked a bit like Yanhua. At this moment, his eyes were closed, as if he was sleeping.
“Daddy!”
Yanhua saw him and couldn’t help it anymore. He rushed over and kept calling out through the bones of the cage.
Originally, the middle-aged man had eight chains wrapped around his hands and feet. It was not known whether it was because the few people had broken the formation when they came over just now, but now the chains on his hands turned into starlight and disappeared.
The middle-aged man’s eyelashes moved, as if he was about to wake up.
Zuan came to Yanhua and asked secretly: “Are you sure he is your father?”
