“Glorious Heart!”

 

Long Shiyan’s enhanced version of her consummate skill struck downward.

 

The lobby was bustling with noise and excitement. After all, this was one of the most exciting life-or-death duels the crowd had ever seen. On one side was the head of their Holy Spirit Group, the peak ninth-level Long Shiyan. On the other side was Long Aotian, the champion of the school’s martial arts competition who tried to frame Long Shiyan.

 

Their names were quite similar, and according to their dialogue exchange, some people have speculated that it was most likely a contest between siblings. But others would disagree with that conjecture since the two were extremely hostile towards each other.

 

Because of that enchantment, many people did not leave. Rather, they stayed to watch the ongoing battles and gain combat experience.

 

However, to keep everyone safe, the Holy Spirit Group began to move. The members in the front row moved away to reinforce the enchantment.

 

This enchantment and the martial arts hall’s enchantment were different. To trap Long Aotian and Long He inside, Long Shiyan and the system, Qian Qian, did not hesitate to spend a lot of resources for this enchantment. Moreover, this enchantment did not have the protection function.

 

So if one accidentally died, then that individual would die permanently.

 

Also, so that outsiders could assist Long Shiyan, the enchantment became one-way access. In other words, people outside could come in, but the people inside couldn’t go out. However, this installment also had a drawback.

 

When Long Shiyan’s “Glorious Heart” struck downwards, a woman rushed out from the audience, blocking the attack by standing in front of Long Aotian. There was another woman with an anxious expression following right behind her, but that woman could not keep up with the other.

 

“Auntie!”

 

This was not a person’s hollering, but a cry filled with distress from two individuals. The person in front of Long Aotian was not a stranger. It was Long Shiyan’s aunt, Long Yuqing. As she faced Long Shiyan, she revealed a resolute expression.

 

Her legs were shaking, not because of fear, but because of Long Aotian’s gravity spell.

 

Although Long Shiyan’s “Glorious Heart” was slow, it became faster than usual under the increased gravity. Therefore, she could not retract her move. 

 

Long Aotian couldn’t stop Long Shiyan’s attack, let alone Long Yuqing. Supposing she cultivated internal strength as Long Aotian did, it would still take her all to block Long Aotian’s gravity spell. Even if Long Shiyan’s attack only grazed her, the attack would still be fatal!

 

Fortunately, she urgently erected a shield in front of herself. But it was not enough!

 

“Hurry up and stop!” Long Shiyan screamed in her mind, but her power was completely out of control. At the most critical juncture, she released her weapon. In the air, she vomited blood and plunged from the sky.

 

Her condition was not good, but Long Yuqing was also in a miserable state. The épée that was released from Long Shiyan’s grasp, on the contrary to her expectations, continued to move on the power she imbued in it. It broke through Long Yuqing’s shield and inserted itself beside her foot.

 

However, it didn’t just fall.

 

From the épée, uncontrollable douqi surged, and the fragile Long Yuqing was blown away until she smashed into the enchantment.

 

Long Aotian was also sent flying for a few meters.

 

Long Shiyan, who dropped onto the ground, spat a lot of blood out. At that moment, Zi Linglong no longer worried about being scolded by Long Shiyan and rushed in.

 

The entire lobby was dead silent.

 

No one spoke.

 

Long Aotian quickly climbed up from the ground and undid the gravity magic. He ran toward Long Yuqing and then instantly used ninth-level healing light magic, but her wounds were too deep.

 

She coughed several times and then completely lost consciousness.

 

Long Aotian hated himself for not reaching Saint-level.

 

Long Shiyan got up with Zi Linglong’s support and used the power of faith to help herself recover. After, she separated from Zi Linglong’s arms and advanced towards Long Yuqing.

 

“Icy! Wind! Storm!”

 

However, Long Aotian wasn’t willing to allow her to approach. He angrily glared at her and instantly cast a fusion of ice and wind magic. Perhaps, it was because he flew into a rage that he was able to cast this magic. Suddenly, his complexion drastically paled.

 

In spite of his actions, he was still maintaining Long Yuqing’s treatment.

 

Refusal to give up!

 

Regardless of how they viewed each other as the enemy, no matter how much they resented the other side, they both shared a similarity. Long Yuqing was their only close relative remaining in the world.

 

It was unclear whether or not their aunt would live or die; the psychological shock to them was immense.

 

This was especially the case for Long Shiyan. She was the one who injured Long Yuqing! She wanted to rush forward and use the power of faith to treat Long Yuqing, but Long Aotian…

 

A horrible storm swept engulfed her; Long Shiyan wiped her tears away. She had to halt her footsteps and erect a douqi shield. Standing firmly in place, she allowed the storm to erode her shield.

 

Against ranged attacks, she had no way to hide.

 

To Long Aotian, Long Shiyan was an enemy who hurt his aunt. How could he allow Long Shiyan to approach her?! He wished to kill Long Shiyan, no! He wanted to completely destroy Long Shiyan! To destroy Long Shiyan’s everything!

 

Destroy her completely!!!

 

Now his intentions of capturing her switched to killing her.

 

He was fuming as a raging flame ignited within his eyes.

 

Yet, why should he be the only one to rage uncontrollably? Long Shiyan also felt angry, pained, anxious, and grieved. At this moment, Long Aotian just had to obstruct her and delay Long Yuqing’s treatment. If Long Yuqing died, she—she would smash him to pieces!

 

Long Shiyan’s intentions had also changed. Originally, she just wanted to cripple Long Aotian so that Long Aotian could not stand against her. Now, she not only wanted to kill him but also to dismember his corpse.

 

Their mental state had diverged by a lot!

 

Although others couldn’t understand them, they were furious.

 

To Long Aotian, magic was a child’s play. Compared to the tenth-level typhoon, the twelfth-level typhoon was completely different. While similar to a tornado, it was much more terrifying than a tornado.

 

The wind was revolving, forming a similar shape to that of a tornado. However, it was covered with dreadful wind and ice blades. Against this, the ordinary folk would instantly become shredded into pieces as this was equivalent to a large-scale meat grinder.

 

Long Shiyan struggled hard, constantly manipulating the power of faith as a divine power to resist. It could be said that if she didn’t have the power of faith, she wouldn’t have been able to withstand Long Aotian’s assault for so long.

 

But even so, it would be bad once she used up her powers of faith.

 

She had already used some of the power to heal herself and fight back, but now she was draining it to desperately resist against Long Aotian’s formidable attack, which was beyond her ability. Currently, there was not much left. If she did not reveal her identity earlier and absorbed the faith of her followers, she would have consumed her powers of faith ages ago.

 

However, within this enchantment, Long Shiyan wasn’t the only one inside as Zi Linglong had also entered earlier. Zi Linglong had no choice but to enter her berserk state.

 

Fortunately, her berserk state made her very resilient, otherwise, who knew what kind of tragic state she would have been in.

 

Long Aotian cast more light magic to heal Yu Qingrou, but it did not have any effect. Instead, his magic simply consumed his magic and mental power reserves.

 

He shot a glance at Long Shiyan, noticing that she was still resisting against his magic. His ice storm magic quickly disappeared as he snarled, “Goddamn it! How are you still not dead?! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! How could I let it end like this?!”

 

“Raging! Flames! Burning! The! Heavens!”

 

The sky was dyed in red; countless flames rained down.

 

Flames fell onto the building’s lobby and then onto the enchantment. Luckily, everyone still had their guards up. Many water-attribute magicians immediately released their magic to cool the area down. But they didn’t touch the enchantment for fear that this water magic would hurt Long Shiyan.

 

While fire magic could not be completely extinguished when hit by water magic, it could be delayed for a few seconds. At this moment, the effects caused by the stalemate between the two forms of magic was extremely terrifying.

 

“Nine! Lightning! Bolts! Descent!”

 

Long Aotian released lightning attribute magic as lightning bolts surged within the dark sky. It was as if a calamity had struck into this world. He was utterly mad.

 

However, everything happening in this battle did not speak of a certain incident from a faraway location. Over there, something miraculous occurred.

 

A cute little lolita was holding a butterfly net. The difference in the size of the net compared to her height was relatively large. Furthermore, there was a large and plump white cat trapped in this net.

 

Perhaps it was too fat to escape from that net!

 

This lolita was much smaller than Long Shiyan, but her level of cuteness was extremely high. If Long Shiyan was rated third in cuteness, then she would be ranked first. She was a genuine loli.

 

“Do you understand what you have done?” the white cat rebuked, “your tool almost killed Long Yuqing. She is the primary female lead! If you kill her, this world will collapse and Long Aotian will go mad. When that happens, you’ll discover the outcome of your actions.”

 

The lolita said, “I don’t know what the outcome will be, but you better stay put. It’d be better if you stopped hindering me so I can take you to a good place far away.”

 

“Your actions are in vain; you can’t restrict me for long. You should already know this by now.” The white cat paused and said, “She fundamentally can’t beat the frenzied Long Aotian; she is just an ordinary person. And that guy’s former strength and sealed consciousness will be released. If he flies into a rage, his power will overflow, and you won’t even be able to imagine the dire consequences. Moreover, his fate has already been set in stone, so you cannot change it.”

 

“You’re just an old fogey!” The little lolita disregarded those words and curled her lips. “You should go out and see for yourself using your aged and rusted brain, otherwise, you will only have second-hand knowledge.”

 

“Hehe, isn’t second-hand knowledge enough?” The white cat snorted as its face was filled with disdain. “No one wouldn’t try to be crafty as anyone could easily throw away their dignity.”

 

The little lolita didn’t pay attention to it and continued moving forward.

 

However, before they went any further, a big hand suddenly appeared in midair. At the same time, pressure capable of extinguishing the heavens and destroying the earth fell onto these two “people.” One lolita and one cat could not move, waiting for the big hand to strike them.

 

“Trouble!”

 

“Trouble! Trouble! Trouble!”

 

A loud and clear voice invaded their brains, rendering them unable to think. Soon, they were gripped by the large hand. However, a blade suddenly dropped down and snapped the arm.

 

“Eh?” puzzled voices sounded.

 

Returning to Long Shiyan, the battle had entered its climax. Long Aotian frantically shot his skills at her to no avail. She tenaciously stood at the same place, withstanding his attacks.

 

Long Aotian barely had any mental or magical powers left; Long Shiyan’s power of faith was likewise drained. Zi Linglong, who also entered the battlefield, was also riddled with scars. Long Shiyan noticed this, but she didn’t have time to help her.

 

Many were nervously watching as they fought, but they didn’t know what was happening inside. Long Aotian’s magic concealed the fight, so who knew what kind of earth-shattering battle was transpiring inside? If anyone tried going inside, that person might have been instantly taken out!

 

To ensure the safety of the students present, the Student Holy Spirit Group began to disperse the crowd.

 

Although they were unwilling to leave, they knew that their lives were at stake, so they were forced to evacuate. It was difficult to persuade Long Shiyan’s believers to leave as they were willing to risk their lives to stay.

 

Right now, they could only pray for her survival.

 

What they didn’t know was that every time they prayed, their prayers became useful to Long Shiyan. They weren’t completely useless wallflowers because their prayers could fuel Long Shiyan’s power. 

 

It went without saying that her powers were slightly replenished.

 

However, it was still too little.

 

She needed more power!
