第四卷 七星岛 第七百九十八章 联手灭魔

Lin Xuan's principle was to act only when there was a benefit, so he wouldn't have acted on the pitiful look from Xiao'er.

Instead, his mind quickly analyzed the situation.

This woman was the Snow Fox Clan’s Crown Princess. However, this identity meant nothing to Lin Xuan; he had no plans to reside permanently in Spirit Island and thus didn’t need to waste effort building good relations with the Snow Fox Clan.

But she was also Xiao'er's older sister, a relationship that couldn't be ignored.

Although Lin Xuan had just entered the Immortalinfant period, he still felt some confidence about ascending to the Spirit Realm. After all, he was young and could consume Longevity Pills to live for nearly a thousand years.

Xiao'er’s talent meant she would easily pass through the heavenly tribulation as well. Even if Lin Xuan never relied on anyone, being close with a future Spirit Realm demon king certainly had its benefits.

Others might think Lin Xuan was thinking too far ahead, but that's what foresight is for. With no distant worries, one should seize any opportunity. This was why Lin Xuan had always pampered Little Snow Fox; of course, her cuteness also played a role.

Their relationship was already very close, especially after the successful formation of an infant soul. The little guy inexplicably became more attached to him, but their bond wasn't unbreakable. If he failed to save his sister’s life, it would taint the intimacy they had built with Xiao'er.

This was something Lin Xuan didn’t want.

Moreover, this place was incredibly mysterious, and ancient demons kept appearing one after another. Although his cultivation wasn't weak, he felt somewhat isolated. With the Snow Fox Crown Princess by his side, their safety would greatly increase.

Even if they found some treasure here, as a demon, she wouldn’t compete with him for the Nine Heavenly Dances Technique.

Lin Xuan’s mind quickly weighed the pros and cons. There was no harm in saving this Snow Fox Crown Princess. With that thought, he no longer hesitated. His sleeve fluttered, releasing several streaks of green sword energy which fiercely attacked the demon.

The demon had already noticed Lin Xuan but, due to his restraints on consciousness, initially didn’t take him seriously. It was only when the green sword energy struck that its face changed dramatically. With two demonic arms wrapping around its chest, a layer of dark black protective shield erupted, enveloping it.

Pfft, pfft, pfft—though unable to break through the shield, this allowed Yuanke to free her hands. She slightly moved her body and stopped the bleeding with a bit of effort before casting a sidelong glance at Lin Xuan.

The opponent was an old demon in the Immortalinfant period.

And Xiao'er had called him… Brother?

Of course, these thoughts flashed through her mind only briefly after she learned from experience not to be too distracted.

Mainly focusing on the demon, several crescent-shaped magical treasures rotated around her body. The shape of this treasure was peculiar, like a curved blade of the moon without a handle, with some strange patterns that seemed like talismans but were unrecognizable to Lin Xuan.

Having just been ambushed by the demon and injured, Yuanke’s beautiful eyes filled with hatred as she pointed a white finger forward, uttering one word: "Quick!"

Six bright crescent-shaped blades, like meteors, fiercely slashed towards the demon. Seeing this, Lin Xuan couldn't help smiling.

Although he had acted, he didn’t intend to use all his strength. He flicked his left hand and a green jade flute appeared in his palm—this was a treasure from the Beast Soul.

To be honest, Lin Xuan already felt that this treasure’s power was somewhat weak, but using it now would allow him to hide its true potential.

He activated it, injecting some mana into it. A giant python as thick as a water barrel emerged, wriggling and spewing out poisonous mist towards the demon.

Facing two opponents, the demon immediately became flustered, showing signs of fear in its eyes. Lin Xuan quickly moved to block it from escaping.

Then, with a flick of his fingers, several streaks of sword energy were released.

Working together, their combined power should be enough to kill the demon. However, Lin Xuan was too optimistic. Demons and human cultivators were different; demons were much fiercer than most races. Seeing the dire situation, the demon raised its head and roared loudly.

Its body instantly grew to over ten meters tall. Although its cultivation hadn’t increased, the amount of demonic energy had significantly boosted.

These demonic energies enveloped it, forming a massive protective shield. On the surface of this shield, numerous long and short tentacles emerged, writhing like snakes, causing Lin Xuan’s scalp to tingle.

Both Yuanke's crescent blades and Lin Xuan's Beast Soul treasure, as well as his sword energy, could tear apart these tentacles but quickly reformed. Clearly, it had become aattrition war.

Lin Xuan didn’t have the patience to prolong this battle. The longer it went on, the more he feared other demons might appear. Frowning, he was about to summon the Green Flame Sword when he realized he couldn’t hide its true power anymore.

However, Yuanke beat him to it. This Snow Fox Clan’s Crown Princess stretched her jade arm and waved gracefully, resembling a dance from an ancient era.

Seeing this, Lin Xuan retracted his hand; if someone else wanted to take the lead, he wouldn't mind saving some strength.

A light ball was summoned by this woman, not a treasure but purely composed of demonic energy, about the size of a dragon’s eye. Although it contained strong demonic energy, its small size left Lin Xuan puzzled.

But his confusion didn’t last long as Yuanke's movements caused the light ball to suddenly expand to several meters in diameter, hanging in mid-air like a sun.

This secret technique was clearly formidable; after using it, the Snow Fox Crown Princess’s demonic aura weakened significantly, her face turning pale.

"Quick!"

With her left hand swinging downward, an ear-piercing sound echoed. The light ball shattered into countless crescent-shaped blades of varying sizes and numbers—hundreds of them, like a flood rushing towards the demon.

Lin Xuan watched in horror; if he hadn’t prepared for this attack, it would have been difficult to defend against such a powerful assault.

The tentacles couldn't withstand the violent attacks, being destroyed without regenerating. The demonic energy was shattered, revealing the demon’s terrified face. Lin Xuan wouldn’t miss an opportunity like this; the giant python transformed from his Beast Soul treasure charged forward. At the same time, he flipped his hand and retrieved the Binding Immortal Rope.
