Chapter 16

1

The flames twisted into long whips, while the crossbows in front and behind were opened, and arrows shot out. The arrows from the two green-clothed figures in front flew straight and their trajectory was touchable, making it easy to dodge. The heavy crossbow from the back shot arrows as thick as my arm, with a three times stronger force. If you couldn't avoid them, you'd be killed with one arrow. But it's better if they have a bigger target.

The most difficult to deal with was the green-clothed person next to the heavy crossbow. His arrows split into four, curved in their movement. Before predicting their position, it was too risky to dodge randomly. The flames of the long whip came attacking from the front, but the arrows were blocked.

The arrowheads were actually round? When they fell to the ground, a small patch of grass instantly turned yellow. If they touched your skin, they could kill, so he didn't need sharp arrowheads. He was quite arrogant.

However, this guy exposed himself as the most powerful of the three. Without him, it would be much easier to deal with the four split arrows.

I summoned "Blood Thunder" with my left hand, and it descended from the sky vertically. The lightning struck the green-clothed person in the back, who immediately dodged. Little did he know that the lightning struck the heavy crossbow directly, and in the blink of an eye, the heavy crossbow turned dark and charred, exploding with a "bang."

The two people in front had already loaded new arrows and pulled the trigger, shooting them out.

I leaned forward and flew towards the green-clothed person in the back. Suddenly, a magic formation appeared behind him, forming a shield to block the arrows. Nofice, with an expressionless face, held the staff firmly.

I'm not stupid, I don't want to fight four people and then sleep for a day.

Nofice was a familiar and it was his duty to appear by his master's side at any time.

Seeing me flying towards him, the green-clothed person immediately threw dozens of darts in a scattered attack. In order to save magic power, Nofice created a short-distance space jump magic formation in front of me, allowing me to pass through the space filled with flying darts. I appeared in the space after the darts had flown, and with my right hand, covered in flames of demon fire, I struck fiercely at his chest. The green-clothed person didn't react in time and was sent flying several hundred meters away.

I looked at my right fist in surprise. "A girl?"

She was thin and weak, and it was actually quite easy to tell, but when you get into a fight, you don't have time to think about that.

Suddenly, my left hand clenched into a fist, and with excessive force, my body was pushed back. I kicked the ground with both feet and stopped on a large rock.

"Nofice, trap him."

Although most of Nofice's magical power came from me, he still had his own magic power, and Nofice's magic formations were good for conserving magical power. Furthermore, when using magic formations, there would be gaps, so it was impractical for me to do it myself.

All four people were temporarily controlled by Nofice, and I also subdued the one who was sitting and drinking tea.

"Oh my, Nofice even took care of the second elder. That's great news."

I walked to the side of the second elder and lightly grabbed his neck, saying, "Nofice, release them, don't waste magic power."

Nofice let go, and before the second elder could react, the yellow bandages on his right hand had already bound him. I still didn't know what kind of magic the second elder specialized in, so I had to be well-prepared.

"Let go of the second elder!" The fifth elder loosened his tense muscles, his bulging stomach and cumbersome waist, making various slow movements.

The three green-clothed individuals had already loaded their crossbows, and the arrowheads were all aimed at me. The green-clothed person who made the heavy crossbow was very powerful in "Creation Magic." It would probably only take her two seconds to create a heavy crossbow, and it required a lot of magic power. How many times could she do it?

"I have a hostage now; second elder, I want to know who gave the orders for the kidnapping ten years ago and this selection process." I said with a serious expression.

"..." The second elder still didn't speak. He was shameless, saying he would say everything, but since I wasn't defeated, he didn't speak.

"I'll talk!" The fifth elder immediately responded.

"Brother Five!"

"Second brother, you've always been the best to me since we were young, not the elder brother. I don't need to sacrifice our brotherhood for the sake of the elder brother." The fifth elder was excited, and the chunks of flesh on his face were trembling.

"Elder Grand!"

"It's the Elder Grand. Everything is related to the Elder Grand. The one who had contact with The Divine Realm was Elder Grand, and it was also Elder Grand who bribed the traitor from The Demon Realm. Are you satisfied now? Release my second brother."

"Where is Elder Grand?"

"Although I don't know why you wanted to push Qin Yin out, Qin Yin's abilities pose a threat to Elder Grand's chances. He has already ordered the remaining candidates to surround and attack Qin Yin. He's probably witnessing the scene now."

"It's not one on one, how can this be?"

"This happened three hours ago, all the elders and branch chiefs here approved this amendment."

"Where is it?" The Chief Elder moved so fast, either he knew I would come or he had these two elders delay me.

"I don't know, it was transmitted an hour ago."

"Damn it!" I was furious, so I kicked the Second Elder to the ground. Suddenly, my forehead felt as hot as fire.

"Umm..." My contract was right underneath my bangs on my forehead. This burning sensation was stronger than when Xiao Yao smiled at me, and the feeling of weakness from the other party was the only thing I don't have to worry about is "death". As long as I don't die, she won't die either. But I don't like this feeling.

"Master!" Nofice gently supported me.

"I know the place, let's go."

"Yes!"

I immediately left with Nofice.

"Old Wu, hold them off." The Second Elder struggled to stand up.

"But, Second Brother!"

"I told you to go, so go."

"Oh! Oh...oh..." The Fifth Elder immediately ran out of the door.

Before leaving, I once again exploded the crossbow, and the person in green couldn't catch up in time due to the flying debris.

I kept dragging Nofice and ran down from the mountain. I couldn't feel any cold on the mountain.

"Brother, are you eloping? Bringing a girl into the mountains?" Qin Song happened to pass by the foot of the mountain and saw me running with Nofice.

"Lend me your motorcycle." After I came down the mountain, I immediately rode the motorcycle. Yao looked down from the mountain road and saw the Second Elder with three people in green chasing after us.

"Sure, just run here, never go on the road, you will be... caught!" Qin Song hadn't finished speaking yet, the motorcycle's wheels were already running fiercely forward.

"He deserves being the motorcycle racing champion, so domineering!" Seeing me running recklessly, Qin Song couldn't help but admire.

"Get out of the way!" Before Qin Song could see who was speaking behind him, he was knocked away by a huge and sturdy body. He fell to the ground and realized it was the Fifth Elder.

"You little brat, you won't listen when I tell you to get out of the way. Come to my house tonight to get your medical expenses." The Fifth Elder didn't have time to bother with anything else. He saw me driving the motorcycle and about to leave, so he shouted, concentrating all his strength in his feet, and used magic to leap into a small magic array, quickly jumping a few hundred meters away.

The Fifth Elder caught up in just a minute, leaped over us, and waited for us in front of a white stone archway.

I casually grabbed a pitch-black fireball and threw it at the Fifth Elder. Surprisingly, it had no effect on him. He must have used some secret technique to temporarily protect his body.

"Nofice, do you have a solution?"

"Yes, it will take some time."

"Ah? The one thing we need the most right now is time. Let me handle it."

I infused magic into the motorcycle, and a sharp horn immediately extended from the front of the motorcycle, like a black unicorn galloping across thousand miles.
