Chapter 556: Wind God (III) (2/2)

This actually should be a magic using Li Zhengzhi’s body as its core. Being a god’s chosen one, Long Haochen could feel that Li Zhengzhi’s spell was really borrowing power from the Wind God. Only, Long Haochen’s reliance on the power of the Goddess of Light was thanks to his identity as a god’s chosen one, but Li Zhengzhi’s reliance on the power of the Wind God was thanks to his great strength and affinity to the wind element.

Long Haochen made the conservative estimate that Li Zhengzhi’s internal spiritual energy was over 300,000, and he should have at least one divine tool in his hand.

The battle didn’t last for much longer. The demon gods were all selfish beings, and perceiving Li Zhengzhi’s great power, Marbas was unwilling to have a fight to the death against him. While the eight great demon gods were holding back Li Zhengzhi’s attacks, the order of retreat was already transmitted. This rapid retreat immediately caused their morale to plummet. The supra forbidden spell Hell’s Descent continued to gradually decline due to being cut unceasingly by Li Zhengzhi, thereby decreasing the force going against the seal.

Finally, Hell’s Descent went to smoke as it was squeezed inside the six-colored formation. That signaled the termination of this battle of attack and defense.

Li Zhengzhi didn’t keep chasing after the retreating demons. Holding his blade horizontally, he looked into the distance as the demon gods drifted away, showing a smile towards the heavens.

The Tombal Mountain Pass already became a sea of pleasure. This battle was certainly dangerous, but its final ending was certainly marvelous. The Tombal Mountain Pass didn’t have a single deceased, but the enemy sustained heavy damage. At least for the time being, they won’t dare launch another attack.

At the time of the annihilation of Hell’s Descent, Long Haochen brought his comrades out of the fortress. Having accomplished his duty, he went down. Staying any further would be meaningless, and besides, he didn’t want to have to meet Tan Wan and Xuanyuan Yan. No matter how guilty, awkward, or persistently cold the counterpart would be, he was unwilling to have to face them.

At the time of Long Haochen’s departure, the Wind God in the sky turned round slowly, giving a glance toward their departing figures, a thin smile forming on the corners of his mouth.

Three days later.

“Xin’er, just come with us. Take it as a plea from me okay? Must I leave you here?” Lin Xin was as anxious as an agitated cat, spinning around Li Xin in the room.

Li Xin gave him a funny look, “You! Will you ever fix that lack of resolution?” Her words were formulated that way, but her expression was full of warmth.

“We are all Demon Hunters. Just like you have your team, I also have my own. How could I abandon my teammates? Moreover, my strength is already unable to keep up with Haochen and you. By coming along, I can only become a burden for you. I have already discussed with Luc Xi, and we chose to remain in the Tombal Mountain Pass for now. This place is by far safe enough. You are a man, and a part of the 64th commander grade Demon Hunt Squad. We still have a long time before us. Or do you really want to stay behind for my sake? We are Demon Hunters, and since the day we took this path, our lives are already not only our own. Could it be that you really don’t understand that?”

Lin Xin became silent. He had already been trying to convince Li Xin for close to one hour. After that battle from three days ago, the Tombal Mountain Pass’ situation was quite stable, and the demons had almost no possibility of breaking through this fort. In addition to that, due to the relationship between the Mage Temple and the Knight Temple, Long Haochen and his comrades decided to keep heading southwards to assemble with their other comrades.

Lin Xin naturally found things difficult to manage in this situation. As Li Xin’s and his emotions had escalated, how could he be willing to part with her? Although he knew that Li Xin was right, he still found it hard to accept deep inside.

Li Xin stood up, and came in front of Lin Xin, leaning towards him, and drawing close to his waist, “Idiot, I should be the one worrying. Because you will keep becoming stronger and stronger, you will also be facing more and more challenging missions. Promise me to live well. Haven’t you been always wanting to do it?... Today, I can give myself to you, hoping that you can gain more responsibility and defend yourself with good care. No matter how long it takes, I will be waiting for you.”

Hearing Li Xin, Lin Xin couldn’t help but tremble profusely. If these were ordinary times, he would definitely be carried away by the excitement. But as they were on the verge of separating, how could he get up happily?

“No, Xin’er. I want to marry you formally. I cannot let you feel wronged, especially at such a time. I love you, Xin’er, and really can’t bear to leave you!” Lin Xin embraced Li Xin tightly, feeling her form and warmth, and becoming unable to hold his tears. If one person within the 64th commander grade Demon Hunt Squad had to be picked as the weakest emotionally, that would be him.

Li Xin suddenly struggled free of Lin Xin, and declared very fiercely, “What do you mean, you can’t let me feel wronged? I should be the one who shouldn’t let you feel wronged. Do you think nothing will happen just because you said no? You’re a mage, and this lady is a knight. If you have a problem, use your magic to stop me.”

Under Lin Xin’s stupefied look, his body was pulled toward the bed by Li Xin.

This was a battle between a knight of the sixth step and a mage of the seventh step. At such a close distance, and in a small room, one can well imagine who won the fight...
