Chapter 1211: Sacred Beast

Chapter 1211: Sacred Beast

“The Demon Realm is related to you, so who is the Sacred Realm related to?”

“What do you mean ‘related to’?”

“I mean, since you’re from the Demon Realm, there must be someone from the Sacred Realm to maintain the Sacred-Demon balance.”

Lin Nuo said seriously, this world is all about conservation, momentum conservation, yin-yang conservation, character conservation; we must believe in science.

So there must be someone connected to the Sacred Realm.

“What Sacred-Demon balance? What are you talking about?”

Mu Yiting was confused, wondering what kind of nonsense Lin Nuo was blathering now.

Well, whatever, she was used to it. He often rambled about various odd things; it wasn’t the first time.

“How can you not understand? It means if you’re from the Demon Realm, someone must be from the Sacred Realm, experiencing the same kind of situation as you.”

“Did you encounter any other little girls when you were young?” Mu Yiting shot back.

“Now that you mention it, it seems I might have.”

Lin Nuo was hit with insight from Mu Yiting—it was like there was indeed someone.

Wasn’t that Su Kexin?

When they were kids, it was the three of them: him, Mu Yiting, and Su Kexin.

So based on Su Kexin’s abilities, it wouldn’t be impossible for her to come from the Sacred Realm.

And he recalled back when he saw a piece of paper in Cangshan Forest with Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue’s names written on it.

Thinking about it, there might be two people involved, one being Su Kexin and the other Luo Xiaoxue.

Or maybe only one—Luo Xiaoxue’s suspicion was very high.

Speaking of which, he hadn’t seen Luo Xiaoxue in quite some time.

The Empress who once chased him down had now become his bedfellow. The speed of change in this world was astounding; one second they were peacefully walking, and the next—whoosh!—down the cliff, becoming an absolute fool.

But…

This related to Su Kexin too, as he despised the Empress Luo Xiaoxue from his past life, not the her from now.

After all, she hadn’t really done anything to make him hate her; it was likely just the issue of status.

But if she was from the Sacred Realm, then she could potentially be an enemy.

After all, the Great威天龙 isn’t just a decoration; a flash of golden light could easily send you to the afterlife.

Of course, it would be best not to be enemies—that would be tricky. He currently had no way to kill her, and it could all backfire on him.

“Who? Is it your Junior Martial Sister?”

“You already know, and you still have to ask me?”

“Your Junior Martial Sister—let’s be honest, she could be our enemy. Her abilities could easily wipe out demons. If she collaborates with the Sacred Realm, we could be in trouble.”

Mu Yiting said anxiously; she was on high alert, even a bit paranoid, often believing someone was out to get her.

“What you mean is, should I take her out?”

Lin Nuo looked at Mu Yiting, but she didn’t answer directly:

“I didn’t say that; do whatever you want. Though, it’s best not to create threats unnecessarily.”

“Honestly, that proposal isn’t feasible.”

Lin Nuo said, he had been trying to act on that ever since his rebirth. Look, how many times had it succeeded? He was already trying to become the most accomplished person in this cultivation world, and Su Kexin was still doing just fine.

“Junior Martial Brother, what are you two talking about…?”

Liu Shuqin felt out of place, unable to chime in, and it was a bit awkward.

“I just felt like you both were speaking about your own things.”

Mu Yiting quickly responded to Lin Nuo, “Right! Do you have secrets with Lin Nuo? I don’t? We have plenty to talk about.”

“I didn’t ask you. Please don’t take it upon yourself to answer for my Junior Martial Brother. Thank you, Miss Mu.”

Liu Shuqin politely responded to Mu Yiting, but her smile was like a wolf hiding its teeth, sweet on the surface but vicious within.

That was something Lin Nuo feared.

Because he had no idea when she might stab him with that bright smile.

Maybe he had read too many yandere novels and comics; it was just a little creepy.

“I’m not responding to you, Miss Liu. Please don’t overestimate your significance.”

Mu Yiting shot back quickly; this woman had too strong a competitive desire. It was always a battle to the death.

Actually, it was much like their back-and-forth quarrels online; they could argue all day but never convince each other, only to think the other was a fool.

“Can you both say less? Sigh, how do you two enjoy fighting so much? The external enemy hasn’t come yet, and you’re already trying to kill each other. Fine, let’s not talk about these things. Since the Sacred Realm is influencing the mortal realm, we should close any pathways that might lead to the Sacred Realm, just like we would with the Demon Realm.”

Lin Nuo stated seriously, causing both of them to stop quarreling and listen earnestly. They might jest, but serious matters must be treated with the utmost gravity.

“So what do we do next? I can only find the Crack of the Demon Realm, not the Sacred Realm. And the Sacred Beasts have just entered the mortal realm; they aren’t strong enough yet. They could be hidden deep, possibly disguised as a farmer, a dog, or even a bird—hard to detect. But if given enough time, they could grow to reveal their true forms in the Sacred Realm, and that could be troublesome,” Mu Yiting shared her thoughts.

“So we need to find someone like you, who can sense where the Sacred Realm cracks are.”

Lin Nuo concluded, realizing it was time to find Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue.

To be honest, he was worried that if he went to find Su Kexin with these women in tow, Su Kexin might explode and try to chop him down.

After all, he was definitely the person who took away her purity.

Taking away the protagonist’s purity and betraying them? That usually ended very badly.

Maybe he should look for Luo Xiaoxue first.

“We could try looking. It looks like it’s about to thunder; let’s hurry and go.”

Lin Nuo glanced at the sky; the thunder rolled but no rain fell. They needed to leave quickly; otherwise, they might run into some bizarre creatures.

Just after he spoke, a bolt of lightning struck down, and Lin Nuo reacted quickly, wrapping his arms around Mu Yiting and Liu Shuqin to shield them.

Close call.

“What… how…?”

Liu Shuqin was surprised; it came too suddenly.

“We’ve been noticed. Perhaps the so-called Sacred Beast is nearby.”

Lin Nuo quickly scanned the surroundings; according to Mu Yiting, Sacred Beasts could be small creatures hiding themselves. With the thunder’s boom, what small creature would come out?

If it were a mosquito, he was at a loss.

There was a lone bird flying nearby; it seemed to be searching for its companions, or maybe it wasn’t.

Whatever, just take it down.

“Prepare to resist the lightning strike.”

Lin Nuo instructed, then began gathering power in his right fist, his spiritual energy surging.

Ultimate Sky Strike!

With a bang, Lin Nuo unleashed his Ultimate Sky Strike directly at the targeted bird.

Instantly, the thunder above began to swirl around the bird, forming a protective layer around it.

Boom!

The clash between the Ultimate Sky Strike and the thunder erupted with a roar that rivaled the sound of thunder itself.

Then the bird’s size rapidly increased, surrounded by the aura of electricity.

“Alright, there it is! I think we need to take it out first.”

Lin Nuo said, feeling more confident dealing with beasts than with people.
