The Villain Doesn’t Want To Get Entangled With the Beautiful Girl After Rebirth - Chapter 186
186. The Appearance of the Sorcerer
After the great explosion came an even stronger attack by fierce beasts, the righteous group’s combat power was damaged, completely unable to withstand, and the only survivors had retreated to the borders of the sanctuary.
Liu Shuqin and Su Kexin felt like they were facing a formidable enemy, originally they had companions from the righteous group, but as a result, a large number were blown to death or maimed, leaving not much fighting power, just those people, the fierce beasts could kill them with sheer attrition.
Lin Nuo and Ling Meng hid on the side, silently observing. Perhaps the great upheaval could trigger Su Kexin’s outburst, and then he would have his chance.
Very good, wait a moment, until a large number of fierce beasts come over, Su Kexin will have no choice but to erupt, it would be best if the beasts killed her, once and for all.
However, he felt something was amiss, as if he had been targeted by the fierce beasts, a group of eagles dived down from above.
“Don’t come near the master!”
Seeing the eagles fall, Ling Meng unleashed a wave of chaotic demonic energy, causing the eagles to lose feathers and get injured.
Ling Meng’s sudden move caught the attention of Liu Shuqin and Su Kexin. Their gazes shifted, and they noticed Ling Meng.
Lin Nuo held his forehead in exasperation. “Disciple, if you’re going to fight, just fight. Why shout about it? And if you’re going to shout, at least don’t stand up! It’s not like Lu Benwei commanded ‘Everyone, stand up!’”
Caught in the act, there was no choice but to show face. Besides, with so many fierce beasts around, it was impossible to stay hidden. Lin Nuo had to make his presence known.
“Master Wu, Miss Wu.”
Seeing Lin Nuo and Ling Meng safe brought great joy to Liu Shuqin, but her expression quickly turned serious again. “It’s wonderful that you’re both still here, but our situation is dire. The unknown explosion and the horde of fierce beasts have made things far worse than we anticipated. I think we need to band together and break out.”
Break out together?
Indeed, they needed to escape, but not just yet. After all, having come to the sacred altar, it would be a waste not to take some treasures back with them.
The sacred altar was not far from them, radiating dazzling spiritual light, whether day or night, like a divine glow that perpetually illuminated the land.
And the altar itself was guarded by powerful protectors. Who would have thought that while fighting shoulder to shoulder with members of other five-star groups, people would start disappearing.
Of course, a few were left alive, but defending against the relentless attacks of the fierce beasts was like trying to extinguish a fire with a cup of water.
“Alright, let’s break out together.”
Lin Nuo agreed. There was nowhere to hide now. It was best to join the others and look for a good opportunity. Of course, when it came to repelling the enemy’s attack, it was better to stay in the back and let the damage dealers do the fighting. He was just a support.
He was fine in a one-on-one fight, but group battles were not his forte. After all, with his weak spiritual power, he would run out of mana after clearing just one wave of minions, relying on frequent basic attacks that would take an eternity.
Originally, sword flight was an excellent means of escape, but now the number of flying beasts in the sky had increased dramatically. While controlling the spirit sword, it was difficult to fend off the many flying beasts.
And with only one sword left, what would he use to fight the flying beasts if he flew up?
Right, there was also the silver Phoenix Sword.
Oh, it seemed to be at the bottom of the chest.
Now, there was another difficulty. All of Ling Meng’s damaging spiritual techniques were demonic arts. If they started fighting, it would surely give them away, especially since there were sorcerers of the eighth order or higher within the altar, who could sense the demonic aura and would definitely come out to send Ling Meng to the heavens.
Even if he drew protective circles for Ling Meng, the sorcerers would probably still discover them, right?
Speaking of sorcerers, where were they? The battle had reached their doorstep, yet they were hiding inside. They couldn’t have run away first, leaving behind these weak and sick to guard the altar, could they?
A large group of fierce beasts was rapidly approaching. Suddenly, intense spiritual light burst forth, and two sorcerers in yellow zodiac robes, wielding spiritual staves, emerged from the altar.
The altar’s sorcerers had arrived.
“Apologies, everyone. We truly did not anticipate such a ferocious beast invasion. Please, help the injured into the altar. We will hold off the beasts,” one sorcerer said, raising his spiritual staff and emitting spiritual light. In an instant, heavy hail rained down from the sky, striking the horde of fierce beasts.
The sorcerers had been holding their ground inside the altar, and they would not have come out unless absolutely necessary, as they had to protect the Three Heavens Stone on the altar.
A barrier was laid around the outer layer of the altar. Even if outsiders flew above, they could only see the grand layout and architecture within the altar, not the existence of the Three Heavens Stone, let alone enter.
Seeing the dazzling spiritual light, Lin Nuo knew that the barrier had been partially opened.
“Dongmian, you’re injured. Retreat into the altar first, and I will heal you.”
“Ah, Master, I’m not…”
“Don’t be stubborn. As your master, I long to contribute to the altar, but I can’t bear to see you hurt any further.”
“No, Master, I really didn’t…”
“Enough, let’s go inside.”
Lin Nuo quickly pulled Ling Meng through the barrier and into the sanctuary. This disciple’s head must have been kicked by a donkey, fighting several waves of fierce beasts as if she was the saintly warrior destined to save the sanctuary. She wasn’t even injured. Wasn’t the original plan just to take advantage of the chaos to loot some treasures from the sanctuary? Now isn’t it just perfect?
As for killing Su Kexin, there are sorcerers inside the sanctuary, which might be difficult. Of course, he still hoped to take away the treasures and Su Kexin as well.
If the strength isn’t enough, one must rely on medicinal pills. The Violent Rage Pill is the last trump card; it could at least bring one back to half the level of a peak villain. If necessary, it could be used to break through.
It took a while for Ling Meng to turn her thoughts around and remember her master’s intention. Right, they came for the sanctuary. Why did she become obsessed with slaying beasts?
For some reason, the things she did recently and the way she thought were gradually becoming similar to those righteous people, she even forgot that she was a practitioner of the demonic path.
It was rare for her master to train her to become a strong practitioner of the demonic path, yet she harbored thoughts of a righteous cultivator. She truly felt ashamed before her master.
Liu Shuqin noticed that Lin Nuo and the others had gone in, and turned to Su Kexin:
“Kexin, your strength isn’t enough yet. In battle, I might not be able to look after you. You should follow Master Wu inside, I’ll fight the enemies outside.”
“Okay, Senior Sister.”
Su Kexin agreed and followed through the barrier into the sanctuary.
From noble mtl dot come
Now, Lin Nuo acted as if he was taking Ling Meng inside for refuge and healing. After all, he had the badge of the Five-Star Group. If they encountered any sorcerers or guards, it would be easy to handle.
However, they didn’t encounter any guards or sorcerers. After all, there was a shortage of personnel, and the sorcerers inside had all come out. There was really no one inside, and they were gradually approaching the Three-Day Stone of the sanctuary. Lin Nuo also felt that strong spiritual power.
“Master, what do we do now?”
“Let’s see what resources are nearby. Don’t take anything lightly once you find them. Tell me first, and I’ll think about whether to take them or not.”
“Okay.”
Lin Nuo and Ling Meng were about to move and search for valuable resources within the sanctuary domain when they suddenly saw Su Kexin following behind.
“Master Wu, Miss Wu!”
Hearing the familiar voice, Lin Nuo turned his head to look.
Hmm? She followed too?
