As he talked, Lin Yun opened his Natural Demiplane, and Reina appeared, holding a 24-facet crystal. Then, Xiuban emerged while pressing Marianna against his thigh, and spanking her with his hand that was even bigger than her head.
“Xiuban, you’re screwed. Just wait for it. I’ll tell Uncle Merlin everything. You’ll be dead for sure if you beat me again…”
“Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, if you ever try to escape again, I’ll certainly beat you to death…”
Marianna’s shriek and Xiuban’s roar echoed at the same time. While spanking Marianna, Xiuban suddenly realized that they weren’t in the Natural Demiplane anymore.
As Xiuban was stunned, Marianna slipped from Xiuban’s thigh, and rubbed her b.u.t.t. Then, she ran all the way to Lin Yun’s back.
“Uncle Merlin, Xiuban stole the fruit you planted near the lake, and beat me up to keep my mouth shut. He didn’t want me to tell you…”
“d.a.m.n it, bullsh*t. Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, come over here, I’ll surely beat you up today…”
Xiuban roared and charged at her. Lin Yun kicked him. Not daring to resist, Xiuban had to endure the hit. Then, Lin Yun happened to kick the side of Xiuban’s calf, and he nearly fell.
He regained balance with his mana. However, his mana was disturbed by Xiuban, and he fell on the ground eventually.
As a level-7 Heaven Rank expert, he had fallen while trying to kick someone else. Lin Yun gloomily stood up, and pointed at the b.l.o.o.d.y Lich.
“Xiuban, do you see the old dry corpse over there? Kill that old dry corpse, or you’ll be dead…”
Xiuban never noticed anyone else around him. He thought that Lin Yun fell only because he was angry. At this moment, he finally looked around, only to be shocked.
In particular, the b.l.o.o.d.y Lich’s aura was much more terrifying than Lin Yun’s. Xiuban pointed at the b.l.o.o.d.y Lich, and screamed in a different tone.
“Sir Merlin, that dry corpse is too strong for me…”
Lin Yun patted Xiuban’s shoulder, and pulled Marianna to his front.
“Xiuban, that old dry corpse is not as strong as he looks. We cannot leave this place until he’s taken down. We’ve fought him for a long time. Do you see my teacher and junior uncle? They’re both as strong as him.
“However, we’re all too heavily wounded to attack anymore. Just go and shatter that old dry corpse. His head is waiting to be twisted by you.
“If you don’t go, then we’ll be stuck here for hundreds, if not thousands of years. You won’t be able to eat anything…”
He tried to trick Xiuban, and Xiuban held Carnage vigilantly. This guy had always been valiant in battle, but it depended on the actual situation.
After Xiuban’s bloodline entered the Heaven Rank, he was like a terrifying extraordinary creature that had entered the phase of rapid growth. He became stronger even if he was just sleeping. His body was almost as st.u.r.dy as that of the Lord of War.
Although he was only level 44, he could already endure a level-9 spell without being badly wounded. Lin Yun speculated that even a level-10 individual spell couldn’t kill Xiuban unless it hit his head precisely.
His bloodline power was all used to toughen his body too. His st.u.r.diness was at least two levels higher than his physical strength.
If he were frozen by Reina at this moment, he would only be confined, but he wouldn’t be hurt.
Hearing that he wouldn’t be able to eat anything for hundreds of years, Xiuban was quite freaked out. He also saw Agalon and Alonzo, who were apparently not to be messed with. Then, he was almost convinced by Lin Yun.
The target was just a heavily wounded dry corpse…
Xiuban grinned, and charged at the target with Carnage on his shoulder.
“Old dry corpse. You’re not lucky. You’ve met the great Xiuban. You’re dead for sure. Come on, be a lamb and let me break your head…”
Xiuban fearlessly charged forward. Reina, however, walked to Lin Yun vigilantly, and looked at Xiuban as if his stupidity had exceeded her expectation again…
“Sir Merlin, what’s happening?”
Lin Yun hadn’t said anything yet when Enderfa drifted close. Only one of his faces was exposed to the air. The other two faces were both repairing the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel.
“Merlin has unfortunately been hit by the Curse of Misfortune that was cast with a piece of Lord of Misfortune’s flesh. But that lich has been connected to Merlin too. He’s in a way a victim of the Curse of Misfortune too…
“Hehe. Xiuban is truly innocently stupid. However unlucky the lich is, he’s a level-49 lich anyways…”
Reina seemed rather shocked. She looked around at the people here, and suddenly realized that the Curse of Misfortune was probably much more powerful than she’d expected…
Xiuban was level-44, but Reina was already level-45. After the evolution, Reina had completely turned into an extraordinary life that was as strong as the Ancient Poison Dragon.
Considering her strength, Reina had just entered the phase of rapid growth. It shouldn’t be a problem for her to grow up to level 49. Then, there was a small chance that she could rise to level 50 and even beyond.
There shouldn’t be any obstacles for Reina until she reached level 49. The Ancient Poison Dragons strengthened her toxicity, and Reina had been building up her frost power.
In fact, Xiuban’s bloodline was even greater than Reina’s. His advance was only slower than Reina’s because he was too lazy.
Xiuban flew towards the b.l.o.o.d.y Lich, shouting loudly. The b.l.o.o.d.y Lich was so infuriated that smoke of death constantly popped up from his head. Gray mist that was made of abundant power of death was spurting from the hole in his cheek.
“Human being, if you ever survive this, be prepared for eternal retaliations. Our deal is off the table. Are you asking this stupid beastman to insult me?”
The b.l.o.o.d.y Lich was almost exploding because of fury. After a few roars, he discovered that a tremendous amount of power of death gathered into gray mist, and gushed out of his wound.
His body was truly about to explode…
The b.l.o.o.d.y Lich had no time to express his fury. He hurriedly controlled his power of death.
Anything could happen when one was haunted by the Curse of Misfortune. His body nearly exploded because of fury. The b.l.o.o.d.y Lich had lived for years, but never seen anything like that. He finally realized how powerful the Curse of Misfortune was.
When he cast it upon his enemy, he knew what happened to them, but he had never experienced it in person. Experiencing it was completely different from seeing it.
The b.l.o.o.d.y Lich looked like a one-legged zombie that was wearing a robe. Also, gray mist was constantly erupting from the wounds on his leg and face.
Xiuban, swinging Carnage, chased after the b.l.o.o.d.y Lich, and flew quickly in the sky. It was quite a hilarious scene. The level-49 lich was being hunted by a level-44 beastman…
But n.o.body could laugh at this moment. Liches weren’t most famous for their st.u.r.diness. If a level-49 skeleton king were here, Xiuban couldn’t possibly break his bone even if he were to beat the guy for a year.
On the other hand, if Xiuban’s Carnage hit the b.l.o.o.d.y Lich, he would truly be shattered…
Agalon could easily crush Xiuban if they were to fight each other. However, if his body was. .h.i.t by Xiuban once, it would be destroyed.
It would be impossible to rescue him.
The b.l.o.o.d.y Lich was chased for more than five minutes, but Xiuban failed to catch him. The power of death gradually stopped erupting from him, which meant that he was regaining control of the power of death.
The b.l.o.o.d.y Lich turned around and shrieked. The shriek was a compression of many curses. It could still carry out the spells’ effects perfectly.
It was just like Lin Yun could cast some spells instantly with magic conducting abilities, but he still had to chant to cast spells that were more powerful. Most of the curses were compressed within three syllables, and had essentially been cast instantly.
But after the b.l.o.o.d.y Lich’s shriek, a tremendous amount of power of death gathered in front of him. It was so terrifying that it even became solid, and transformed into pale bones.
It was Skeleton Roar, a level-10 spell of the undead…
Feeling the terrifying magic waves, Lin Yun covered his eyes, and almost couldn’t bear to watch it any longer.
He was not feeling sorry for Xiuban, but feeling sorry for the b.l.o.o.d.y Lich…
Due to the Curse of Misfortune, his power of death almost went out of control, and his body almost exploded. Yet, the man was bold enough to cast a level-10 spell. How stupid was he?
But Xiuban didn’t know that. Although he wasn’t the smartest guy, he was definitely strong. The moment he detected the waves, he knew it was impossible for him to resist it. However, he was too far away from the lich to disrupt the chanting. The best solution was to throw Carnage at him. That was the easiest and strongest attack…
And that was exactly what Xiuban did. His red face almost turned pale, and he swung Carnage out and ran off.
Carnage’s weight, enhanced by the arrays, was at least hundreds of thousands of kilograms.. Adding the momentum when Xiuban threw it out, it could easily smash a level-5 Heaven Rank swordsman to death. However, it was simply negligible for the b.l.o.o.d.y Lich…
