Chapter 1282: Still Able to Protect Some Things

These two are like they’ve been possessed; it’s probably a case of natural conflict. With their energy and emotions boiling over, it feels like they share a blood feud, and just by your aura, it’s clear you’re a formidable enemy.

Formidable enemies deserve immediate annihilation.

However, Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue have awakened their bloodlines, and today, they must eliminate the threat posed by Lin Nuo.

Of course, whether they’ll end up getting rid of Lin Nuo too is still uncertain.

Lin Nuo, nimble as ever, expertly dodges the attacks from the two.

The power of Sacred Light is incredibly fierce; even Lin Nuo has to avoid it when he can.

In such a dire situation, forcing them to calm down is utterly unrealistic—who knows, he might end up as a sacrifice!

So, the current strategy is to create a diversion, then take the Demon Woman back.

Due to the lack of binding power, Lin Nuo can’t use a dividing technique to lure them away.

He has to take matters into his own hands and run with the Demon Woman on his back.

Of course, if he were to use the dividing technique, he’d probably be instantly vaporized; Sacred Light cannot be trifled with.

Lin Nuo races backward, and Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue are right on his tail. He makes a quick turn, and luckily, the Dark Ice Technique can seal the Demon Woman’s power, preventing her from having any taunting aura detected from afar by Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue.

Finally, he shakes them off.

Lin Nuo lets out a long sigh; toying with them like this is exhausting—without any world-class carefree wind element mastery, he wouldn’t last more than a few seconds!

Now, he heads for the Magic Spring.

To be honest, most of the people from the Sacred Realm have already been purified. If Lin Nuo simply jumps into it, he won’t be able to control the outcome.

He could also be at risk of being purified.

Of course, he’s been at risk of purification for a long time; he managed to get through it back then.

For example, with the dual cultivation with Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue, the power within these two could easily purify him.

But that never happened.

This indicates he’s already immune to purification.

Though, that’s just his assumption.

Even with risks, he has to jump in.

Just like in his past, unaware of the deep abyss below the Magic Spring, he leaped down and became the Demon Path Emperor he is today.

“Whew.”

Lin Nuo places the Demon Woman aside, takes a deep breath, and plunges into the spring.

The water is infused with both Sacred and Demon Qi, a clash of energies constantly battering Lin Nuo’s body like an icy firestorm—a mix of hell and heaven, and he’s leaping between them.

However, he shows no signs of pain, eyes shut, allowing the two forces to clash against him.

“Whew.”

Taking another deep breath signals he has passed through one stage, and the previous impact slightly eases, but soon enough, those two energies surge up again, attacking Lin Nuo furiously, even more violently than before.

It’s fine; he can still endure.

But because of the assault from the two energies, the strength of the Dark Ice technique he uses on the Demon Woman weakens, allowing her body to begin moving again.

Once the Demon Woman’s body is fully activated, she will release immense power, leading her to ultimately self-destruct after a final frenzy.

At that moment, Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue catch up.

With the Demon Woman’s frozen body now animated, the aura she radiates makes Luo Xiaoxue and Su Kexin even more agitated and furious, charging at her once more.

The Demon Woman is drawn to the two girls as well; she wants to make one last desperate attempt to destroy her enemies, even if it means her own extinction!

At that critical moment, their powers are about to clash when a beam of black and white light bursts forth between them, erupting with tremendous force, pushing the two sides apart.

After being washed by the spring’s waters, some of Lin Nuo’s dormant meridians seem to awaken, instantly stopping their impending conflict.

In the blink of an eye, his sword transforms into dozens of blades radiating with a blend of black and white light, quickly surrounding the Demon Woman, trapping her.

With a smooth, flowing motion, Lin Nuo aims to use the Soul Extraction technique to separate Ling Meng’s other soul from the Demon Woman.

“Rise!”

With just a single word whispered in his mind, he injects his Demon Soul Power into the Demon Woman, first binding her body to prevent her from going berserk, ensuring she doesn’t end in destruction. Then, he begins to absorb her soul.

The success rate for soul extraction is extremely low; even for him, it’s a tough challenge—it’s all about luck.

This process requires utmost concentration, and if Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue come to disrupt him, it’ll only complicate matters, greatly reducing his chances of success.

All he can do is trust them a little.

He’ll do his best, and let fate take its course.

Faced with the array of light swords, Luo Xiaoxue and Su Kexin surprisingly calm down, refraining from recklessly charging in.

They too are struggling to control their emotions, knowing Lin Nuo is performing an important ritual and they cannot act foolishly.

“Senior Martial Brother, it looks like it’s really tough for you…”

At this moment, Lin Nuo’s face reveals a hint of pain, causing Su Kexin to feel a pang of heartache, but she can’t provide any help.

The Demon Woman is wailing in agony, desperately attempting to break free from Lin Nuo’s sword array, but it’s futile; she’s already trapped.

Lin Nuo closes his eyes, and a vision appears before him.

Ahead lies an endless abyss, with the sounds of evil wails echoing from within, seemingly a place from which one could never return.

Standing at the edge of the cliff is Ling Meng, stepping closer to the abyss.

She glances back, her eyes glistening with tears, yet she doesn’t cry; instead, she offers a comforting smile.

It seems that as long as she sees Lin Nuo before she falls into the abyss, she will have no regrets.

She keeps her gaze fixed on Lin Nuo, until finally, one foot steps off, and she plunges into the depths below.

Lin Nuo leaps forward, giving it his all, and manages to grasp Ling Meng’s hand.

“You still kept your promise.”

At the moment Lin Nuo grabs her hand, she sinks into his embrace, and using his adept wind techniques, he returns to the edge of the cliff.

Finally, he opens his eyes.

“Return!”

In an instant, Lin Nuo exerts his strength, successfully separating Ling Meng’s soul from the Demon Woman and capturing it in the magic vial.

He swiftly retreats, letting the sword array dissipate, and the Demon Woman breaks free, her eyes bloodshot with fury, ready to kill everyone in sight.

“Alright, you can kill her now.”

Lin Nuo steps back, allowing Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue to take action. With Ling Meng’s soul saved, he no longer needs to worry about this Demon Woman.

“Right, got it!”

Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue are energized by the order, encouraged by Lin Nuo’s expectations; how could they let him down?

Today, they will kill this Demon Woman!

The Demon Woman goes wild, her power surging explosively, seemingly capable of annihilating an entire army, but she faces her natural enemies—two young warriors blessed by Sacred Light.

After a long moment, accompanied by a tremendous explosion, the Handa Alliance’s experiment, a wicked Demon Woman, falls beneath the hands of Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue.

“Sigh, it’s still you two.”

Lin Nuo leans against a rock, glancing at the magic vial in his hand, and smiles gently.

He can still protect some things.
