Chapter 5: The Finale (11)
==============================
As three identical young boys, looking like triplets, stood together, not just Li Hanbo but even Luo Ying, supporting the male character on the main peak, and a crowd of Heavenly Sword Sect disciples were left utterly dumbfounded.
What in the world? How did three Shiyuans pop up at the same time?
Luo Ying quickly pieced it together: Evil Shiyuan, Good Shiyuan, and Mr. Shiyuan—this was the first time the trio reunited since they were split apart 400 years ago!
Li Hanbo had no idea about any of this, but he could clearly sense who amongst them was the real boss.
The Man in Black Robe—yes, that was his boss!
In control of everything! Above all others!
He didn’t fear the other two at all and could easily teach them a lesson.
At that moment, even the Cold Moon Witch was completely under his control, like a puppet without any say over her own body.
Truly worthy of being his boss.
If it weren’t for the fear of disturbing his boss’s fun, he would have charged forward immediately, jabbing his mouthparts into the Witch’s delicate skin to savor the delicious feel of her soft flesh.
His eyes practically sparkled at the thought, just waiting for a chance to get up close and personal with the Cold Moon Witch.
Meanwhile, the Heavenly Sword Sect disciples were caught in a whirlwind of tension and chaos.
Just moments ago, the witch had appeared and easily defeated Li Hanbo. Had it not been for Good Shiyuan’s timely intervention, that wretched traitor of the Heavenly Sword Sect would have long been turned into a snowman with a heart of ice.
On top of that, the witch had also dealt with a bunch of temporary traitors—truly infuriating fence-sitters.
Unbeknownst to them, the disciples had developed varying degrees of fondness for the witch, viewing her as an ally, hoping she would beat the newly emerged Man in Black Robe.
Everyone knew that only by taking out the ultimate boss could the Small Thousand World possibly find peace again.
But judging by how things were progressing, the fact that the witch was now under Good Shiyuan’s control had them gasping in disbelief.
What would it mean if even the witch fell?
The terrifying implications were crystal clear.
One courageous Heavenly Sword Sect disciple stepped up.
“Brothers! We may not be able to help the witch much, but at least we’ve still got our limbs—we can still fight a little!
If we can’t even do that, what’s the difference between us and useless squabbling fools just waiting to d*e?”
“Right on, brother! We’re with you!” the crowd chanted, eager to keep up.
“Let’s go together! At least we can distract the enemy and lighten the witch’s burden.”
“No problem!”
“Master Sister…”
The disciple looked expectantly at Luo Ying, but she simply shook her head.
First, she entrusted the exhausted male character to her most reliable subordinate, then stood up and said, “I’ll go. You all guard the main peak—don’t go throwing your lives away. You wouldn’t be of much help in a battle like this.”
“But…”
“There are no ‘buts.’”
Luo Ying unsheathed her Dark Light Sword and soared into the sky.
Li Hanbo immediately noticed her movements; having regained some strength, he, as the loyal subordinate of the boss, would not let anyone disturb his boss’s enjoyment!
“Anyone wanting to see the boss has to get past me first!”
Suddenly, several tentacles appeared out of nowhere, blocking Luo Ying’s path.
She fought fiercely to cut through the tentacles and collided violently with Li Hanbo.
At the same time, Lin Nan’s right hand had already grasped the White Shadow Sword.
With a delicate shout, she suddenly felt a surge of energy rampaging within her, and as a series of explosive sounds went off, the invisible shackles binding her shattered in an instant.
Good Shiyuan blinked, staggering back several steps.
“What in the world?”
Lin Nan swung the White Shadow Sword lightly and asked, “Do you recognize this sword?”
Good Shiyuan’s expression shifted dramatically, and after a moment, he responded, “I never would have guessed—even the White Shadow Sword acknowledges you as its master?”
Lin Nan replied coolly, “So do you think there’s still a need to continue fighting?”
She expected that with the appearance of the White Shadow Sword, Good Shiyuan would quickly submit under its dominance, but to her surprise, a teasing smile crept onto his lips.
“You think this sword will work on Evil Shiyuan, so it’ll work on me too? Ridiculous! The so-called ‘taming sword’ must be founded on the husband’s affection for his wife. Without that premise, what good is the White Shadow Sword?
Besides, I know you’re not the real Frost North Snow. So why would I care?”
“Is that so?”
Lin Nan, wielding the White Shadow Sword, leaped forward, her foot spinning in the air like a windmill.
Under normal circumstances, Good Shiyuan wouldn’t have been hit by such a simplistic move, but this time, he could only watch as her foot approached his face with increasing speed.
Then there came a resounding “bang!”
Good Shiyuan felt a fiery sensation on his cheek, and his vision spun like a carousel.
Luckily, he maintained his balance midair, flipping and regaining composure.
He touched his painful cheek, his face etched with disbelief, “This… how is that even possible? How did you do it?”
Lin Nan sneered, “You may know my origins and refuse to call me Frost North Snow, but you’ve forgotten—this body is 100% the real deal! What’s more, I’ve completely fused with it. There’s only one Frost North Snow in this world, and that’s me.
As long as you’re still tempted by this body, you can’t escape the White Shadow Sword’s punishment!”
【Ding! Identification successful. Due to Good Shiyuan’s attitude being merely a straightforward physical infatuation, your attack power against Good Shiyuan has increased by 30%!】
Perfect! She felt that even with just a 30% increase in attack power, she had more than enough to deal with Good Shiyuan.
But Good Shiyuan wasn’t about to sit idly by; he let out a shriek as immense power surged through him, tearing his clothes off and revealing his muscular physique.
Clothes-Blasting Mastery!
This was a technique he learned from a certain race in the Small World, allowing him to boost his powers temporarily.
With such a trade-off, he actually matched Lin Nan weapon-for-weapon, despite her wielding the White Shadow Sword.
The intensity of this battle was truly extraordinary.
The Heavenly Sword Sect disciples watched the two clashing in the air like shooting stars, their eyes barely able to keep up with their movements.
With each violent collision, shockwaves erupted outward from the point of impact.
Even with the main peak far from their battleground, the disciples could still feel the gusts of wind barreling towards them.
At that moment, they were grateful they had heeded Master Sister’s advice instead of charging in blindly; otherwise, they’d have been turned into pancake bits by the enemy boss!
Meanwhile, above, the sky filled with booming clashes, and suddenly, thick dark clouds began to gather without warning.
