yǔ tóng xiān zi lěng lěng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ 。
雨桐仙子冷冷的声音传入耳朵。
Rain桐 Fairy's cold voice entered his ears.
yán yǔ dòng zuò ， jiē bà qì shí zú 。
言语动作，皆霸气十足。
Her words and actions were all domineering and arrogant.
nà mó jiāo zé chè dǐ bèi jī nù 。
那魔蛟则彻底被激怒。
That demon crocodile was thoroughly enraged.
chéng rán ， tā dāng nián néng duó shě wàn jiāo wáng ， shì chèn xū ér rù 。
诚然，他当年能夺舍万蛟王，是趁虚而入。
Indeed, he had managed to possess the Ten Thousand Crocodiles King by taking advantage of an opportunity. But wasn't luck also a part of one’s strength?
dàn yùn qì bù yě shì shí lì de yī bù fèn me ？
但运气不也是实力的一部分么？
Being able to seize such opportunities required immense effort. He never felt it inappropriate; on the contrary, he was always proud of his achievements.
néng gòu zhuā zhù shí jī ， dāng zhōng jiù yǒu tài duō de bù yì 。
能够抓住时机，当中就有太多的不易。
But now, Rain桐 Fairy was humiliating him, making his proudest work seem worthless. How could he not be furious?
tā cóng méi yǒu jué de bù tuǒ ， qià qià xiāng fǎn ， duì cǐ zhàn jì ， yí xiàng shì zì míng dé yì 。
他从没有觉得不妥，恰恰相反，对此战绩，一向是自鸣得意。
This is intolerable! A gritted teeth voice entered his ears as he hated that woman to the bone.
rán ér cǐ kè ， què bèi yǔ tóng xiān zi xiū rǔ ， jiāng zì jǐ de dé yì zhī zuò shuō dé yī qián bù zhí ， tā zěn me kě néng bù fèn nù ？
然而此刻，却被雨桐仙子羞辱，将自己的得意之作说得一钱不值，他怎么可能不愤怒？
"Accursed, you will pay for your words and actions."
shì kě rěn ， shú bù kě rěn ， yǎo yá qiè chǐ de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， tā yǐ hèn qián miàn de nǚ zǐ rù gǔ 。
是可忍，孰不可忍，咬牙切齿的声音传入耳朵，他已恨前面的女子入骨。
The eight evil crocodiles' claws were flailing wildly, emitting terrifying killing intent.
“ kě wù ， nǐ huì wèi zì jǐ de yán xíng fù chū dài jià de 。”
“可恶，你会为自己的言行付出代价的。”
How could he possibly be inferior to the废物 Ten Thousand Crocodiles King? Over these years, although he had successfully possessed him, his cultivation never slackened.
bā tóu è jiāo zhǎo zhāng yá wǔ zhǎo ， kě pà de shā qì pèi rán ér chū 。
八头恶蛟爪张牙舞爪，可怕的杀气沛然而出。
All the secret techniques of the妖族 and his own demonic powers were all thoroughly mastered. Saying that his achievements surpassed those of the failed Ten Thousand Crocodiles King wasn't an exaggeration.
zì jǐ zěn me kě néng bù jí wàn jiāo wáng nà fèi wù ， zhè me duō nián ， zì jǐ suī rán chéng gōng duó shě ， dàn xiū liàn què yì zhí méi yǒu fàng sōng guò 。
自己怎么可能不及万蛟王那废物，这么多年，自己虽然成功夺舍，但修炼却一直没有放松过。
"You are lying!"
yāo zú de mì shù ， hái yǒu běn tǐ de mó gōng ， quán dōu wú yī lì wài de xiū liàn chún shú ， shuō qīng chū yú lán ér shèng yú lán yě bù wèi guò ， zěn me kě néng bù jí nà shī bài zhě wàn jiāo wáng ne ？
妖族的秘术，还有本体的魔功，全都无一例外的修炼纯熟，说青出于蓝而胜于蓝也不为过，怎么可能不及那失败者万蛟王呢？
He loudly argued back.
“ nǐ hú shuō ！”
“你胡说！”
"Is it a lie or not? You know better than anyone, otherwise, why would you be so hysterical?" Cloud Fairy's voice was as firm as ever. The evil crocodile seemed to have impressive momentum, but after this verbal clash, he nearly burst with anger.
tā jìng dà shēng zhēng biàn qǐ lái le 。
他竟大声争辩起来了。
Continuing the argument wouldn't lead anywhere, and he himself wouldn't gain anything. Realizing this, the demon crocodile stopped talking. Black demonic energy surged around him, eight heads simultaneously emitting different light beams.
“ shì bú shì hú shuō ， nǐ xīn lǐ bǐ shéi dōu qīng chǔ ， fǒu zé ， yòu zěn me kě néng zhè yàng de xiē sī dǐ lǐ ne ？” yún zhōng xiān zi de shēng yīn què shì dǔ dìng dào le jí chù ， nà è jiāo kàn shì qì shì bù sú ， jīng guò zhè yī cháng yán yǔ de jiāo fēng ， què chà diǎn jiāng dù pí dōu qì pò diào le 。
“是不是胡说，你心里比谁都清楚，否则，又怎么可能这样的歇斯底里呢？”云中仙子的声音却是笃定到了极处，那恶蛟看似气势不俗，经过这一场言语的交锋，却差点将肚皮都气破掉了。
Sharp attacks mixed with dozens of rules, like a downpour. It seemed he had decided to kill Rain桐 Fairy here.
zài zhēng lùn xià qù ， yě bú huì yǒu yí gè jié guǒ ， ér zì jǐ ， gèng shì tǎo bú dào hǎo de ， jiāng zhè yì diǎn rèn qīng chǔ ， nà mó jiāo bù zài duō shuō 。 hún shēn yǒu hēi de mó qì fān yǒng ， bā gè tóu lú ， tóng shí pēn shè chū bù tóng de guāng zhù 。
再争论下去，也不会有一个结果，而自己，更是讨不到好的，将这一点认清楚，那魔蛟不再多说。浑身黝黑的魔气翻涌，八个头颅，同时喷射出不同的光柱。
Li Yutong's expression became extremely serious.
xī lì de gōng jī ， tóng shí jiā zá zhāo shù shí zhǒng fǎ zé 。 rú dà yǔ qīng pén sǎ luò ， kàn lái tā shì dǎ dìng zhǔ yì ， yào jiāng yǔ tóng xiān zi miè shā zài zhè lǐ 。
犀利的攻击，同时夹杂着数十种法则。如大雨倾盆洒落，看来他是打定主意，要将雨桐仙子灭杀在这里。
Mingtian Silk was cast out freely.
lǐ yǔ tóng de biǎo qíng yě biàn dé níng zhòng yǐ jí 。
李雨桐的表情也变得凝重以极。
Lightning-like brilliance followed suit.
hùn tiān líng huī sǎ rú yì 。
混天绫挥洒如意。
The domain combined with the chaotic laws hid her figure in an indistinct realm.
yī dào dào guāng huá suí zhī ér qǐ 。
一道道光华随之而起。
She was as light as air, leaving no trace. At this moment, Li Yutong seemed to merge with nature; the laws of heaven and earth became her body.
lǐng yù pèi hé zhe hùn dùn fǎ zé ， jiāng tā de shēn yǐng zhē dǎng zài yī piàn xū wú zhī zhōng 。
领域配合着混沌法则，将她的身影遮挡在一片虚无之中。
With a flick of her wrist, she met him head-on.
qīng ruò wú wù 。 zōng jì quán wú ， zài zhè yī kè ， lǐ yǔ tóng zì jǐ ， fǎng fú róng rù le tiān dì ， zhè tiān dì fǎ zé ， dōu biàn chéng le tā de shēn tǐ 。
轻若无物。踪迹全无，在这一刻，李雨桐自己，仿佛融入了天地，这天地法则，都变成了她的身体。
Rumble!
bì rú zhǐ shǐ ， cháo zhe duì fāng yíng le shàng qù 。
臂如指使，朝着对方迎了上去。
Continuous thunderous sounds entered his ears. There was no longer any spiritual light or magical treasures flying around. Instead, between them clashed the purest essence qi and elements from the heavens and earth.
hōng lōng lóng ！
轰隆隆！
At this level, they were already engaged in fierce battle.
jù xiǎng shēng bù tíng de chuán rù ěr duǒ ， yǐ jīng méi yǒu líng guāng yǔ fǎ bǎo fēi wǔ ， cǐ shí zài liǎng rén zhī jiān jī zhuàng de 。 shì tiān dì jiān zuì chún zhèng de líng qì yǔ yuán sù 。
巨响声不停的传入耳朵，已经没有灵光与法宝飞舞，此时在两人之间激撞的。是天地间最纯正的灵气与元素。
The demon crocodile aside, he was one of the three great妖王.
tiān dì běn yuán 。 liǎng rén yǐ jīng sī shā zhè zhǒng chéng dù 。
天地本源。两人已经厮杀这种程度。
Li Yutong truly impressed; a mere avatar, though at a disadvantage, managed to hold her own against him.
nà mó jiāo zàn qiě bù shuō 。 bì jìng shì sān dà yāo wáng zhī yī 。
那魔蛟暂且不说。毕竟是三大妖王之一。
Her true form would be even more formidable. Being comparable to a True Immortal wasn't an exaggeration; she might even rival Arhats from long ago.
ér lǐ yǔ tóng zhēn de hěn liǎo bù qǐ ， qū qū yī jù huà shēn ér yǐ ， suī xíng shì bù lì 。 xiān xuè sǎ luò ， dàn bì jìng miǎn qiǎng hái kě yǐ yǔ tā fēn tíng kàng lǐ 。
而李雨桐真的很了不起，区区一具化身而已，虽形势不利。鲜血洒落，但毕竟勉强还可以与他分庭抗礼。
No one knew how many years had passed since Li Yutong last showed her true form in action.
huà shēn rú cǐ 。 běn tǐ kě xiǎng ér zhī 。
化身如此。本体可想而知。
But where was this top-tier spiritual cultivator's true body?
kān bǐ zhēn xiān ， jué bú shì hú yán luàn yǔ ， shèn zhì pì měi dāng nián de ā xiū luó ， dōu shì dà yǒu kě néng de 。
堪比真仙，绝不是胡言乱语，甚至媲美当年的阿修罗，都是大有可能的。
With the Peach Blossom Banquet encountering such a setback, her avatar was already in grave danger. Emotionally and logically, she shouldn't ignore it. If she didn’t appear now, could it be that she wasn’t still at the Jade Pool?
méi yǒu rén xiǎo de ， zhè me duō nián lái ， jī hū méi yǒu rén jiàn guò lǐ yǔ tóng de běn tǐ dòng shǒu guò 。
没有人晓得，这么多年来，几乎没有人见过李雨桐的本体动手过。
No one knew for sure, but the battle continued intensely.
zhǐ shì ， zhè wèi líng jiè dì yī rén de běn tǐ ， jiū jìng zài hé chù ？
只是，这位灵界第一人的本体，究竟在何处？
...
rú jīn pán táo huì yù jiàn zhè yàng dà de bō zhé ， xīn kǔ xiū liàn de huà shēn ， yě xiàn rù le jué dà de wēi xiǎn zhōng ， yú qíng yú lǐ ， tā de běn tǐ dōu bù gāi zhì zhī bù gù ， xiàn zài hái bù xiàn shēn ， nán dào jìng bù zài yáo chí ？
如今蟠桃会遇见这样大的波折，辛苦修炼的化身，也陷入了绝大的危险中，于情于理，她的本体都不该置之不顾，现在还不现身，难道竟不再瑶池？
On another side,
méi yǒu rén xiǎo de ， zǒng ér yán zhī ， zhàn dòu yī jiù zài jī liè de jìn xíng zhe 。
没有人晓得，总而言之，战斗依旧在激烈的进行着。
Qin Yan waved her hand, and the Heavenly Demon Sword followed suit.
……
……
Sharp sword light swept over, breaking through a series of faint sounds like raindrops on banana leaves. Finally, it broke through the barrier before them.
zài shuō lìng yī biān 。
再说另一边。
"Phew!"
qín yán yù shǒu yī fú ， tiān mó jiàn suí zhī huī sǎ ér chū 。
秦妍玉手一拂，天魔剑随之挥洒而出。
Qin Yan exhaled in relief, wiping away the fine beads of sweat from her forehead.
xī lì de jiàn guāng juǎn guò ， yī lián shù shí jì qīng xiǎng rú yǔ dǎ jiāo hé ， zhōng yú jiāng yǎn qián de guāng mù pò kāi diào le 。
犀利的剑光卷过，一连数十记轻响如雨打蕉荷，终于将眼前的光幕破开掉了。
This was already the thirteenth restriction she had broken.
“ hū ！”
“呼！”
The Sacred Peach Tree's guardians were indeed extremely strict. It was because countless域外魔族 attracted the attention of the Rain Mist Commercial Alliance cultivators that Li Yutong and the Ten Thousand Crocodiles King were entangled, otherwise, they wouldn't have reached here.
qín yán shū le kǒu qì ， cā le cā é tóu shàng xì mì de hàn zhū 。
秦妍舒了口气，擦了擦额头上细密的汗珠。
She must quicken her pace.
zhè yǐ jīng shì tā suǒ pò chú de dì shí sān dào jìn zhì le 。
这已经是她所破除的第十三道禁制了。
Otherwise, while Li Yutong's avatar couldn’t defeat the Ten Thousand Crocodiles King, if his true form arrived, it would be a disaster.
pán táo shèng shù ， shǒu wèi guǒ rán sēn yán yǐ jí ， zhè hái shì yīn wèi wú shù yù wài tiān mó ， xī yǐn le yǔ lán shāng méng xiū shì de zhù yì ， ér lǐ yǔ tóng ， yě bèi wàn jiāo wáng gěi chán zhù ， fǒu zé yě jué bù kě néng dá dào zhè lǐ de 。
蟠桃圣树，守卫果然森严以极，这还是因为无数域外天魔，吸引了雨岚商盟修士的注意，而李雨桐，也被万蛟王给缠住，否则也绝不可能达到这里的。
Qin Yan flashed forward, her white dress fluttering. She was already several dozen feet away.
bì xū jiā kuài jiǎo bù 。
必须加快脚步。
If measured by mortal martial arts, such lightness was shocking; but compared to渡劫 cultivators, she moved as slowly as a snail.
fǒu zé ， yǔ tóng xiān zi de huà shēn gù rán dǎ wàn jiāo wáng bù guò ， rán ér tā běn tǐ ruò shì dào le ， jiù dà shì bú miào 。
否则，雨桐仙子的化身固然打万蛟王不过，然而她本体若是到了，就大事不妙。
But there was no choice. The禁空 restrictions were becoming increasingly evident the closer she got to the Peach Tree.
qín yán shēn xíng yī shǎn ， bái qún piāo piāo ， rén yǐ zài shù shí zhàng kāi wài 。
秦妍身形一闪，白裙飘飘，人已在数十丈开外。
This restriction was truly terrifying. Under its influence, even with her late-stage渡劫 cultivation, she couldn't use the御风 technique.
ruò yǐ shì sú de wǔ gōng lái shuō ， zhè yàng de qīng shēn gōng fu wèi miǎn jīng shì hài sú ， dàn xiāng duì yú dù jié jí bié de xiū xiān zhě ， jiù màn dé xiàng shì wō niú zài pá le 。
若以世俗的武功来说，这样的轻身功夫未免惊世骇俗，但相对于渡劫级别的修仙者，就慢得像是蜗牛在爬了。
Flight was out of the question; perhaps only realm-level power could break free from its constraints.
dàn méi yǒu bàn fǎ ， rú jīn lí pán táo shù bù yuǎn ， jìn kōng jìn zhì de xiào guǒ ， yuè lái yuè míng xiǎn 。
但没有办法，如今离蟠桃树不远，禁空禁制的效果，越来越明显。
Qin Yan hacked through several restrictions one after another until a huge cave appeared in her sight. She stepped over and was stunned by what she saw...
cǐ jìn zhì zuò zhe shí kě pà ， zài tā de zuò yòng xià ， yǐ qín yán dù jié hòu qī de xiū wèi ， dōu méi yǒu bàn fǎ shī zhǎn yù fēng zhī shù 。
此禁制作着实可怕，在它的作用下，以秦妍渡劫后期的修为，都没有办法施展御风之术。
Meanwhile,
fēi xíng shì bié xiǎng le ， yě xǔ zhǐ yǒu lǐng yù jí bié de qiáng zhě ， cái néng zhèng tuō qí shù fù 。
飞行是别想了，也许只有领域级别的强者，才能挣脱其束缚。
A wise man makes mistakes, too. Lin Xuan and Moon worked together, originally thinking they had thoroughly annihilated the域外魔族 before them.
jiù zhè yàng qín yán pī jīng zhǎn jí ， yī lián shù dào jìn zhì yòu bèi tā pò qù 。
就这样秦妍披荆斩棘，一连数道禁制又被她破去。
Little did they know that a minuscule crystalline soul was hiding in the shadows.
zhōng yú ， lìng wài yī jù dà de róng dòng yòu chū xiàn zài shì xiàn lǐ ， qín yán yī bù mài guò qù ， rán ér yǎn qián de yí mù ， què ràng tā yī xià zi gěi jīng dāi le ……
终于，另外一巨大的溶洞又出现在视线里，秦妍一步迈过去，然而眼前的一幕，却让她一下子给惊呆了……
Though unremarkable, it was the decisive factor. He planned to possess Lin Xuan.
yǔ cǐ tóng shí ， lìng yī biān 。
与此同时，另一边。
If Lin Xuan knew this, he would have no chance at all.
zhì zhě qiān lǜ bì yǒu yī shī ， lín xuān yǔ yuè ér lián shǒu ， yuán běn yǐ wéi yǐ jīng chè dǐ miè shā le yǎn qián de yù wài tiān mó 。
智者千虑必有一失，林轩与月儿联手，原本以为已经彻底灭杀了眼前的域外天魔。
The problem was that Lin Xuan never imagined such a scenario.
nǎ ér xiǎo de ， què yǒu yī tóu fā sī dà xiǎo de jīng pò ， zài àn zhōng yǐn cáng zhe 。
哪儿晓得，却有一头发丝大小的晶魄，在暗中隐藏着。
With calculated intent against his carelessness, Lin Xuan found himself in grave danger.
suī bù qǐ yǎn ， què shì jué shā de suǒ zài ， tā zhǔn bèi duó shě lín xuān 。
虽不起眼，却是绝杀的所在，他准备夺舍林轩。
As that heavenly demon's magic aura approached within a dozen feet of Lin Xuan's brow, he still couldn't sense it. The Heartless Heavenly Demon King was filled with excitement, thinking he could turn defeat into victory.
ruò shì lín xuān qīng chǔ ， tā zì rán fēn háo jī huì yě wú 。
若是林轩清楚，他自然分毫机会也无。
But just as this happened, the void blurred, and a cute young girl appeared before Lin Xuan, blocking his path.
wèn tí shì zhè yì diǎn ， què shì lín xuān zuò mèng yě bù céng yù liào dào de 。
问题是这一点，却是林轩做梦也不曾预料到的。
Since she was close to him,
yǐ yǒu xīn suàn wú yì ， lín xuān xiàn rù le jù dà de wēi jī 。
以有心算无意，林轩陷入了巨大的危机。
The heavenly demon sped up, but it was too late to stop.
yǎn kàn nà lǚ wēi bù kě chá de mó qì ， jù lí lín xuān de méi xīn zhǐ shèng xià zhàng xǔ ， tā yī jiù fēn háo chá jué yě wú ， nà tiān wài mó jūn de xīn zhōng ， yǐ mǎn shì xīng fèn zhī sè ， xiǎng zhe zì jǐ néng gòu fǎn bài wéi shèng le 。
眼看那缕微不可查的魔气，距离林轩的眉心只剩下丈许，他依旧分毫察觉也无，那天外魔君的心中，已满是兴奋之色，想着自己能够反败为胜了。
"Thud..."
rán ér jiù zài zhè shí ， xū kōng yī zhèn mó hú ， yī jiāo qiào de shào nǚ zài lín xuān shēn qián fú xiàn ér chū ， wú qiǎo bù qiǎo ， gāng hǎo dǎng zhù le tā de qù lù 。
然而就在这时，虚空一阵模糊，一娇俏的少女在林轩身前浮现而出，无巧不巧，刚好挡住了他的去路。
A muffled sound entered his ears as he plunged into the girl's head.
yīn wèi jù lí lín xuān hěn jìn le 。
因为距离林轩很近了。
"Little Butterfly!"
suǒ yǐ nà tiān wài mó tóu jiā kuài le yí dòng de sù dù ， zhè yī xià biàn qǐ cāng cù ， zài xiǎng yào tíng xià yǐ jīng lái bù jí le 。
所以那天外魔头加快了移动的速度，这一下变起仓促，再想要停下已经来不及了。
This unexpected turn of events came suddenly. But in that moment, Lin Xuan reacted.
“ pū ……”
“噗……”
He was shocked and grateful at the same time.
yī shēng mèn xiǎng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， tā mò rù le shào nǚ de tóu lú 。
一声闷响传入耳朵，他没入了少女的头颅。
He had been too careless.
“ xiǎo dié ！”
“小蝶！”
The域外魔族 hadn't fallen yet.
zhè yì wài biàn gù lái de tài tū rán ， rán ér zài fā shēng de yī shùn jiān ， lín xuān yǐ jīng fǎn yìng le guò lái 。
这意外变故来得太突然，然而在发生的一瞬间，林轩已经反应了过来。
Lin Xuan couldn’t imagine Little Butterfly sacrificing herself to save him.
dà jīng shī sè ！
大惊失色！
What would happen to her if she were possessed?
xīn zhōng yòu shì gǎn jī yòu shì fèn nù 。
心中又是感激又是愤怒。
Lin Xuan's face showed concern but he could do nothing, as frantic as a hot pot ant.
tài dà yì le 。
太大意了。
Little Butterfly crouched down; black aura appeared on her face and strange magical patterns emerged.
zhè yù wài tiān mó jū rán zhè me jiǎo huá ， hái méi yǒu yǔn luò 。
这域外天魔居然这么狡猾，还没有陨落。
"Bad luck!"
lín xuān gèng xiǎng bú dào xiǎo dié huì shě shēn xiāng jiù 。
林轩更想不到小蝶会舍身相救。
Lin Xuan shouted, but was helpless. Should he attack Little Butterfly to save himself?
dài tì zì jǐ bèi duó shě ， tā huì zěn me yàng ne ？
代替自己被夺舍，她会怎么样呢？
A dilemma!
lín xuān de liǎn shàng mǎn shì guān zhù ， què bāng bù shàng máng ， jí dé rú tóng rè guō shàng de mǎ yǐ yì bān 。
林轩的脸上满是关注，却帮不上忙，急得如同热锅上的蚂蚁一般。
But soon, Lin Xuan didn't have to worry anymore.
xiǎo dié dūn le xià lái ， liǎn shàng hēi qì yǐn xiàn ， bìng qiě yǒu gǔ guài ér xuán miào de mó wén fú xiàn chū lái 。
小蝶蹲了下来，脸上黑气隐现，并且有古怪而玄妙的魔纹浮现出来。
For the black aura and magical patterns seemed formidable at first glance but were just a fleeting moment.
“ bù hǎo ！”
“不好！”
They quickly vanished. Little Butterfly raised her head; her face returned to normal as she smiled reassuringly at Lin Xuan.
lín xuān dà jiào ， què shù shǒu wú cè ， yǎn kàn xiǎo dié bèi duó shě ， kě nán dào zì jǐ gōng jī tā me ？
林轩大叫，却束手无策，眼看小蝶被夺舍，可难道自己攻击她么？
"Little Butterfly, are you okay?" Lin Xuan was still shaken.
Rain桐 Fairy's cold voice entered his ears.
Her words and actions were all domineering and arrogant.
That demon crocodile was thoroughly enraged.
Indeed, he had managed to possess the Ten Thousand Crocodiles King by taking advantage of an opportunity. But wasn't luck also a part of one’s strength?
Being able to seize such opportunities required immense effort. He never felt it inappropriate; on the contrary, he was always proud of his achievements.
But now, Rain桐 Fairy was humiliating him, making his proudest work seem worthless. How could he not be furious?
This is intolerable! A gritted teeth voice entered his ears as he hated that woman to the bone.
"Accursed, you will pay for your words and actions."
The eight evil crocodiles' claws were flailing wildly, emitting terrifying killing intent.
How could he possibly be inferior to the废物 Ten Thousand Crocodiles King? Over these years, although he had successfully possessed him, his cultivation never slackened.
All the secret techniques of the妖族 and his own demonic powers were all thoroughly mastered. Saying that his achievements surpassed those of the failed Ten Thousand Crocodiles King wasn't an exaggeration.

Sharp attacks mixed with dozens of rules, like a downpour. It seemed he had decided to kill Rain桐 Fairy here.

"Thud..."
A muffled sound entered his ears as he plunged into the girl's head.
"Little Butterfly!"
This unexpected turn of events came suddenly. But in that moment, Lin Xuan reacted.
He was shocked and grateful at the same time.
He had been too careless.
The域外魔族 hadn't fallen yet.
Lin Xuan couldn’t imagine Little Butterfly sacrificing herself to save him.
What would happen to her if she were possessed?
Lin Xuan's face showed concern but he could do nothing, as frantic as a hot pot ant.
Little Butterfly crouched down; black aura appeared on her face and strange magical patterns emerged.
"Bad luck!"
Lin Xuan shouted, but was helpless. Should he attack Little Butterfly to save himself?
A dilemma!
But soon, Lin Xuan didn't have to worry anymore.
For the black aura and magical patterns seemed formidable at first glance but were just a fleeting moment.
They quickly vanished. Little Butterfly raised her head; her face returned to normal as she smiled reassuringly at Lin Xuan.
"Little Butterfly, are you okay?" Lin Xuan was still shaken.
