--- Chapter 243 ---
An immortal-like expert hovered in the sky.
Her blue sword radiated with a faint aura, making a unique yet beautiful contrast with the glaring sunlight.
After seeing the gentle blue light, everyone in the Jia Nan Academy felt at ease. They breathed evenly due to the disappearing pressure, calming their heart down.
'Who is this woman?' Everyone thought.
On the other hand, the Hall of Souls experts stared at Luo Bingbing with a dark expression.
"Sword Fairy Luo..." The Half-Saint Expert from Hall of Souls scowled at Luo Bingbing.
Luo Bingbing indifferently gazed back, "We meet again, Blood Demon."
In the Gu Sacred Mountain Range, Blood Demon is one of the Hall of Souls' experts who led the death army against the alliance.
His expertise is to control the blood of his enemy, using it to his advantage.
He fought with Luo Bingbing once, and it ended up with him running away from her. But it's alright because he wanted to stall Luo Bingbing from helping others.
He's one of the reasons why Luo Bingbing is so frustrated with herself.
So, meeting Blood Demon here is like Christmas for Luo Bingbing. She wants nothing more than to cut trash to pieces.
Blood Demon held his bloody shoulder tightly, using his Dou Qi to prevent more bleeding. However, he also gritted his teeth because Luo Bingbing is so ruthless that she injected sword intent into his injury.
He chuckled coldly, 'This bitch really wants to kill me.'
After their first encounter, the Hall of Souls and Hun Clan emerge as the winners. Blood Demon was sure it dealt a blow to Luo Bingbing's confidence.
Even then, he had to admit Luo Bingbing was getting up fast.
Her strength is also monstrous.
Blood Demon clenched his shoulder and made it explode, discarding the rotten part due to the sword's intent. After that, he dragged a random Hall of Souls member, turning him into blood energy before regenerating his lost limb.
Such a scene is gruesome and makes one fear him.
"That's better." Blood Demon grinned in joy.
"Sword Fairy Luo, your sword skill is indeed impressive."
"But I am Immortal!"
"You can't kill me!"
Luo Bingbing pointed her sword at Blood Demon, "Is that so?"
"Well, let's see how many sword strikes you can get then..."
After saying that, a blue light rose from Luo Bingbing, tearing the dark clouds above even more.
Like a hero who made her appearance clear, she's here to slay the demon king!
Luo Bingbing isn't afraid of anything anymore because her husband is here.
Not far away, Baek Ain arrived with Yunyun. They are a bit slower than Luo Bingbing, but that's for good reason.
They don't want to alert the Hall of Souls too much.
If they knew about Baek Ain's arrival, it would cause the Hall of Souls to hide even more.
"Impressive..." Yunyun stared at Luo Bingbing with admiration in her green eyes. To her, Luo Bingbing's way of the sword is unrivaled in the same grade.
On top of that, Luo Bingbing is from the upper realm. Her foundation must be 'extremely' solid.
"She's stronger than me." Although Yunyun is confident in her strength, she knows the limit of Dou Qi after discussing it with Baek Ain earlier.
Since Luo Bingbing cultivated spiritual energy, her attack was smoother and more dangerous.
Baek Ain also stared at Luo Bingbing, "Her realm is loosening. She should be able to break through soon."
Yunyun's eyes widened slightly, "She is?"
"Yeah. Luo Bingbing can always break through anytime, but she doesn't have the self-esteem, chance, or heart to achieve it." Baek Ain bitterly replied.
Unfinished Samsara is scary.
"Let's go. We must get Zi Yan before the Hall of Souls could." He added while descending from the sky.
Yunyun nodded and followed Baek Ain.
Zi Yan and Su Qian watched the fight between Blood Demon and Luo Bingbing with fascination.
"This..."
"Is she the headmaster?" Zi Yan couldn't help but utter.
Su Qian chopped Zi Yan's head sternly, "Nonsense! Our headmaster is a man!"
"Ouch~!"
"Also, I'm sure the headmaster wasn't this strong..."
"He also didn't use a sword as a weapon."
"But I might know who she is."
"Who is she?" Zi Yan's eyes glimmered with hope.
Su Qian stared at Luo Bingbing and answered, "There was a rumor in the Central Plains. Four Ancient Clans allied to deal with the Hall of Souls but failed because the latter used a forbidden technique to revive the dead..."
"Revive the dead..." Zi Yan's expression turned grave. No wonder they wiped the Ancient Void Dragon Tribe. They must have wanted to use their bodies.
'Curse you, Hall of Souls.'
'I swear I'm strong enough in the future. I will wipe you guys down!'
Dragon's resentment is strong.
Zi Yan, who had lost everything, possessed Dragon's resentment that could swallow a world whole.
"Yes, revive the dead." Su Qian nodded solemnly. "Even then, they don't have an advantage against the Ancient Clan Alliance."
"Even though Hall of Souls successfully fled from the ambush, they experienced a serious blow in their ranks."
"I heard most of their experts died..."
"That woman, If I'm not wrong, is one of the Four Fairies."
"Surname Luo, Sword Fairy Luo."
"Her name is Luo Bingbing." A voice echoed in the room.
"Who is there?" Su Qian walked in front of Zi Yan, protecting her.
Baek Ain walked into their sight and raised his hand, "Calm down. I mean no harm, especially for the Dragon Girl."
Zi Yan's nose twitched because she smelled a draconic scent from Baek Ain but found no bloodline or presence from him. How weird.
Baek Ain used the Chaotic Mask of the Jester skill, transforming his appearance into a mysterious teacher, Lin Feng, again.
He could have used White Fang's identity, who was acquainted with Su Qian in the past, but he decided not to.
After all, he's coming here to get Zi Yan and not to protect Jia Nan Academy.
Baek Ain smiled, "My name is Lin Feng, and I'm here for you, Zi Yan."
"I don't wanna!" Zi Yan put on a solemn expression.
Baek Ain shook his head gently, "Too bad. You don't have a choice in this situation."
"If you stay in the Jia Nan Academy any longer. You will not only endanger your life but also the lives of people here."
"Hall of Souls will keep chasing you."
Zi Yan hesitated because what Baek Ain said was true.
"Don't you want revenge?" Baek Ain suddenly said.
Zi Yan looked up, staring into Baek Ain's clear yet profound eyes.
"You want to avenge your tribesmen, right?" He calmly stared back into her eyes.
"Their sudden death is done by the Hall of Souls and Hun Clan."
He pointed at Blood Demon and added, "With your current strength, you can't touch that fellow's coat."
"However, if you come with me."
"You can wipe the Hall of Souls and Hun Clan."
"After all, we have a common enemy. No, this world has a common enemy."
Yunyun observed Zi Yan's expression and smiled inwardly because the answer was clear. Those eyes are thirsty for revenge.
Zi Yan clenched her fist, "Can you really?"
"Yes."
"Then, I will go with you."
"Zi Yan!" Su Qian was hopeless.
"Don't stop me, Elder." Zi Yan gave him a determined look.
"I'm doing this for everyone..."
Baek Ain smiled at them, "Wise choice."
"Let's see..."
"Since I already accepted three students, I don't think I can handle more."
"What about this? Zi Yan, are you willing to be adopted?"
"I-I'm willing!" Zi Yan replied decisively.
Baek Ain nodded, "Good. From now on, you're my adopted sister."
