Chapter 183 – Strange Siblings (1/2)

Lin Xiao abruptly remembered that their greatest enemy wasn’t Heino Academy, but Cato Academy!

That team of three assassins plus an archer was too annoying, even now Lin Xiao hasn’t caught onto their trail.

Loran Academy was now in first place, so there were surely numerous eyes on them, so not only did he have to be careful of ambushes, he also had Elena detect movements in their surroundings at all times, yet they still haven’t discovered Cato Academy.

They never met any enemies on the third day.

On the fourth day, they met a strange team from Bamboo Academy, which was also part of Lombard Kingdom. They weren’t a strong team, just a small magic academy in a rural area somewhere near Winterless City.

Bamboo Academy’s source of students were from nearby villages, most students did not have much innate magic talent, there would occasionally be one or two magicians, but they would just return to their hometowns and use their magic to help their village farm better.

The two teams ran into each other by accident, Lin Xiao wanted Shen DaiYing to finish them as fast as possible, but they ran!

“Sister YaoZi, you guys run! I’ll protect you!”

Suddenly seeing the beautiful Shen DaiYing, a short youth immediately grasped his staff, and quickly cast his magic without underestimating the enemy.

“Ice Wall!”

The sapphire on top of the staff release a dazzling light, and a thick ice wall appeared in an instant trapping Shen DaiYing inside. They took that opportunity and ran.

“Brother LingTian, where should we run to?” A soft and gentle female voice sounded.

That was a beautiful girl, half a head taller than LingTian. She grabbed his cuff with concern, she seemed to be the sister YaoZi and the one who cast the ice wall should be her little brother, LingTian.

“Don’t worry about me, run! I can deal with it!” LingTian yelled.

“But, I…” YaoZi hesitated and wouldn’t leave.

“Shut up! Scram, you annoying woman!”

“Eh? O-okay…”

“LingTian, YaoZi?”

Hearing how they called each other and seeing that they had the same black hair as her, Shen DaiYing paused and guessed that they could be just like Lin Xiao, of the Eastern Tribe. So she got curious and planned to have a chat with them.

Of course, she had to take them all down before they could have a chat.

Blossom!

In an instant, the firm ice wall became ice shards, Shen DaiYing gently kicked off the ground and vanished.

“Sister, run!” LingTian cried out in alarm.

He originally wanted to continue casting magic to stop Shen DaiYing’s attack, but he didn’t expect her to completely ignore him and went straight after YaoZi!

From the staff he was holding, it was clear that he was an ice magician, and could quickly cast ice defense magic, and was rather annoying. So Shen DaiYing determined that girl would be easier to deal with, so she used Shadow Blink and closed the distance.

Shiiiiiiing.

The sword was unsheathed at a speed difficult to see with the naked eye.

“Sister!!!”

“What? Ah!”

Hearing her brother’s call, she turned around and saw the closely approaching Shen DaiYing, with that beautiful sword Snow. She knew she was finished and instinctively screamed!

“Don’t!”

“Cherry Blossom Dance, Blos… eh?”

Shen DaiYing originally thought it was a waste for her to use such a move on a small fry, but it turned out that she was right to.

As she was about to cut her down, that woman suddenly glared at her.

For some reason, Shen DaiYing felt a strong sense of unease, that was her sixth sense as an assassin. So, she changed her direction and didn’t pursue after her, instead, aiming her cherry blossoms below her.

In the instant the petal landed, a sharp ice wall shot out of the ground! Colliding right into Shen DaiYing’s slash and exploded into ice bits.

It was different than the thick and sturdy ice wall LingTian cast earlier, this wall was full of sharp icicles, if Shen DaiYing was any slower, she would have been pierced full of holes.

What a close call!

Shen DaiYing still had lingering fears, when she snapped out of it, the siblings already escaped far away with the protection of their teammates.

“Sister Ying! Are you okay?” Lin Xiao quickly ran over.

He obviously didn’t want Shen DiaYIng to be injured, but if she was, then he would have to take care of it like before!

“I’m fine.” Shen DaiYing shook her head slightly, flipped her sword and sheathed it, but her gaze still lingered in the direction they ran off to.

“What happened?” Caesar also ran over and looked at the ice shards on the ground in puzzlement.

Where did the last ice wall come from? That ice magician LingTian was still far away, and didn’t have any chance to cast any magic… so if it wasn’t him, then who was it?

“That woman, YaoZi. I can’t believe I didn’t see it, really…” Shen DaiYing sighed and blamed herself for the mistake.

“Sister Ying, you’re saying…” Lin Xiao understood.
