Chapter 1295: They Stole Home

Aike thought Lin Nuo had left the main hall, but with a quick turn, he shook off the horde of pursuing demons and changed direction.

Originally headed away from the main hall, now he was rushing towards it.

This wasn’t just a lucky mishap; it was guided by a soul.

That was the soul of Ling Meng he had previously collected.

He didn’t recognize the route, but she did.

Of course, Ling Meng’s soul couldn’t talk directly; it communicated with Lin Nuo through sensations.

So Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue couldn’t hear anything, making it their little secret.

After returning to the Demon Realm, Ling Meng’s soul started to gain vitality. Previously lifeless in the Sacred Realm, it was clear that the environment influenced everything.

Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue both believed it was Lin Nuo’s idea to lead the way; as long as they followed him, they were good to go.

Lin Nuo continued to sense with Ling Meng’s soul, listening to various strategies, smoothly avoiding all kinds of checkpoints while swiftly approaching the Handa Alliance headquarters.

Sure enough, being guided by someone is wonderful.

Ling Meng’s soul had acquired geographical information about the Demon Realm while she was inside the Demon Woman, so she was knowledgeable. This information was originally fed to the Handa Alliance and now was used by her.

As they were nearing headquarters, Lin Nuo noticed that the guards weren’t particularly strict; it seemed something had gone wrong at headquarters, and a large number of guards had been dispatched elsewhere.

“Senior Martial Brother, what is that…?”

“They really dare to do it!”

“How did they know we were coming? Did Senior Martial Brother notify them in advance?”

“I certainly didn’t notify them.”

Lin Nuo grumbled, spotting the commotion of Spirit Techniques ahead and instantly recognizing the three girls who remained in the Demon Realm.

They had actually attacked the enemy headquarters.

What boldness!

But it was understandable; after all, he had been missing for so long and previously accompanied the Handa Alliance on campaigns—there was a chance they had seen him.

Even if they hadn’t seen him, they probably knew something, that he had been captured by the Handa Alliance.

Then they got angry and recklessly rushed to the Handa Alliance headquarters.

There was a raging display of Demon Power and Spirit Techniques up ahead, ice and thunder everywhere, with magical bombs exploding, and the scene was spectacular, as if their hidden potential had been unleashed.

A large group of demons was on the defensive; even though the three of them were putting out fierce attacks, the number of demons was overwhelming. It would take them a long time to kill their way through, and over time, excessive consumption would lead to their slow demise.

“Let’s go, quickly!”

Lin Nuo urgently pulled Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue to support. Thankfully, they arrived just in time; if Aike returned, facing those four Great Master-level Demon Beasts, the three of them would surely end up in the underworld for reincarnation.

Meanwhile, Qin Shili, Mu Yiting, and Ling Meng were fighting fiercely at headquarters, struggling against the increasingly overwhelming enemy.

“Are you all okay?” Mu Yiting asked the other two girls.

“No problem at all.”

Qin Shili said, and with that, a heavy ice spike fell from the sky, hitting a large number of rushing demons, instantly turning them into ice blocks, which then shattered.

“Master, where are you? Why have you been gone for so long? Did you get trapped by them?!”

Ling Meng was infuriated, becoming even more courageous, charging forward despite her injuries, showing no signs of retreat.

However, the swarm of demons surrounding them made it nearly impossible to break free, and escaping was even harder, especially with prominent demon masters on the outside aiming to capture these three recklessly ambitious girls.

They were also great candidates; if captured and presented to Aike, he would undoubtedly use Demon Power to control them, significantly bolstering the Handa Alliance’s strength.

“Listen up, they can’t escape! You four at the four points, channel your energy together. They will lose their ability to resist.”

The chief demon master, Kosa, directed his subordinate masters, ready to capture the three women. However, at that moment, three other figures suddenly emerged from behind.

“Lin Nuo?! You… you’ve become a puppet, haven’t you?! How could you…?! What about Lord Aike…?!”

Kosa was extremely shocked. The entire headquarters had believed Lin Nuo had fallen into the status of a puppet, and after a series of checks, he showed no signs of autonomy nor could he escape the control of the Handa Alliance. Yet here he was, charging towards headquarters.

“Aike? Aike is dead! That’s what you chose!”

Before Lin Nuo even made a move, he threw out a wave of trash talk, making Kosa and the other demon masters second-guess themselves.

“What?! Lord Aike, how could this be?! He triumphed in the Sacred Realm; it’s impossible!”

“You’ve been deceived! If Aike truly triumphed, why am I here unharmed and he isn’t? That was all just gossip I spread to keep you off guard. Well, your doom has arrived!”

Seizing the moment, Lin Nuo continued to bluff, since Aike hadn’t arrived yet and this group had no way of knowing the truth; scaring them made the whole squad anxious, causing them to collapse.

“Um…”

Kosa was half-convinced, but clearly shaken internally, as were the other demon masters. Seeing the formation almost complete, and that Qin Shili and the others were on the verge of losing their fighting capabilities, Lin Nuo’s intimidation caused them to make mistakes.

“Don’t resist, or you’ll all die.”

Capturing the leader first, Lin Nuo aimed his attack at the big dog Kosa, dashing in like a gale and swinging his sword fiercely.

Boom!

As a soul assassin, he could take the head of an enemy amidst a thousand troops. Even though there were many demons left in the Handa Alliance, they had been thrown into disarray by Lin Nuo’s taunts, giving him the chance to strike.

“Listen, your leader is dead, and your good days are over! Now, anyone who resists will die; surrender while you still can!”

Having just taken down Kosa, Lin Nuo yelled at the horde of demons. This tactic was quite effective; no matter how many demons there were, without a leader, their combat effectiveness would be severely reduced.

Naturally, these demons weren’t going to surrender easily; they were still quite tough. But with their leader down, they panicked, so the chaos allowed Qin Shili and her group to break free.

Next, Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue also joined the fray, the two sisters of Sacred Light fighting in perfect harmony, with a heap of corpses scattered across the Handa Alliance headquarters, blood flowing like rivers.

The prettier the girls, the fiercer they fought; it was hard to imagine how much blood had stained their hands.

“Well, that should be enough.”

Lin Nuo jumped onto their altar, dispelling the magic they had cast. Many of the mechanisms in the hall were undone, and even the imprisoned victims were freed.

“Aike will be overjoyed to see this scene.”

Lin Nuo was very satisfied with this.
