Volume 12 Chapter 73 : Counterattack Battle (7)
"Huh?" The female demon of the clan felt something was amiss. This sensation She looked carefully at Dusty's back, and found that the place where her nails had pierced was not blood, but soil.
"Wow~" Silent Water and Reidy exclaimed, suddenly sinking into the ground. Fire Lotus, too, sank into the ground, and they all emerged from the ground next to Lin Xiang.
"Dusty! You almost scared me to death!" Silent Water saw that Dusty was fine, but the female demon clan member's fingernails were still stuck on another "Dusty". Silent Water could not help wiping away a bead of sweat from her forehead.
"Lady Dragon God taught me this. It's called an earth clone. Hehe, isnt it impressive?"
"You cunning little brat." The female demon clan member's nails were tightly embedded in the body of muddy Dusty.
With a strong tug, Dusty's earth clone turned into a clump of dirt, "I'll deal with all of you at once. I dont want to waste any more time with you. Ugh! Pfft!" The figure of the female demon clan flashed for a moment, and then she fell to the ground, "Wha what?"
Her feet were silently trapped by the soil. If it were not for that trap, after that flash, she would have appeared in front of Lin Xiang and the others.
"This, is this something taught by Yalide again?" Reidy asked.
"Yup, Lady Dragon God said that soil is a very good resource, and we should use it more. Since everyone is standing on the ground, you can unknowingly bind your enemies."
Just as the female demon clan member broke free from the soil covering her feet, new soil appeared and wrapped around her feet.
"This won't hold her for long. If she flies into the air, there's nothing we can do to stop her." Sure enough, as Silent Water said, the female demon clan member's body erupted with a gust of wind, pressing the ground into a large pit as she floated up.
"How dare you How dare you do this." The female demon clan member lowered her head, her white hair hanging down as she floated in the air like a resentful female ghost.
Freed, it seems that Wind Chimes cant hold on much longer! Lin Xiangs attention was always on Wind Chimes. He could feel that Wind Chimess life force was dwindling.
But, Ive never encountered something like this before. How about this, you go form a contract with her. Its the only possible way to remedy this. Of course, other people can't do this, because it requires infusing a large amount of powerful magic to regenerate her magic crystal.
A contract again? Lin Xiang froze for a moment, then looked at the now frantic female demon clan member. He gritted his teeth.
"Uhh"
The chilly lips were like a refrigerated marshmallow, soft and inviting to be held in the mouth, to melt it. However, aside from that sensation, Lin Xiang felt nothing else. There was no flow of energy at all.
You fool, shes practically lost consciousness now. To form a contract, you must have a strong desire to make a contract with her. Hurry up.
"Uhh" Lin Xiang closed his eyes, and unconsciously recalled all of Wind Chimes bold actions from before. She was bold, yet lacked in common sense, which was actually quite cute.
Come on, you have to overcome this. You and Nagisa made an appointment to meet again next time. Also, didn't you say you wanted to study humans? As long as you can survive, why dont I be your research subject? Thats why you must hang in there!!!
"Hum~" A purple halo emanated from Wind Chimes's body, surrounding Lin Xiang and Wind Chimes. The light around them flickered like fireflies, leaving Silent Water and the others in awe for a moment, captivated by the beautiful scene in front of them.
The female demon clan member raised her head, her face full of disbelief, "How is this possible!? A mere human brat! Actually possessing the power to reassemble magic crystals? Thats my spirit, mind you! I absolutely wont allow it to fall into outsiders hands!!!" The female demon clan member, instantly appeared in front of Lin Xiang. Separated only by a barrier of light, her nails were about pierce through him.
Wind Chimes's shut eyes suddenly opened. Her purple pupils dilated, before a tremendous whirlwind erupted, blowing away everything around her.
"Ah!" Silent Water, Reidy, and Fire Lotus were all blown back.
Dusty exerted great effort to anchor herself to the ground, simultaneously summoning soft mud to catch Silent Water and the others.
Under the forceful gale, the female demon clan member was blown back for a considerable distance.
"What!? Her magic power actually surged, advancing to upper B rank?" The female demon clan member once again could not believe her eyes as she looked at Wind Chimes. The light barrier gradually faded, leaving behind a wind symbol imprinted on her arm.
Wind Chimes's pupils shrank slowly and returned to normal. She looked left and right, then turned to Lin Xiang, a faint smile showed on her lips, "You said it."
"Huh?" Lin Xiang was puzzled.
"To be my research subject."
"Huh!? I didn't say it, did I?" Suddenly, Lin Xiang recalled the words he said to Wind Chimes in his mind earlier. Could it be that this strong intention was conveyed along with the energy?
"Yes." As if she could read Lin Xiang's heart, Wind Chimes answered affirmatively. Then, she looked at her own hands, "It's such a miraculous feeling, as if there's an endless reservoir of magic."
"Kid! Just who are you! Youve been recognized by a spiritual weapon, and even possessed the energy to reassemble magic crystals! You know, even demon hunters at your level might not be able to achieve this. Come join us. Your talents will receive even greater promotion! Whatever you want, you can get it." At that moment, the female demon clan member was far more interested in Lin Xiang than Wind Chimes.
"Whatever I want, I can get it?" Lin Xiang stood up and unsheathed his cold sword, "I didn't have any aspirations before, but now, what I want is to become a demon slayer, to slay all of you demonic creatures that indiscriminately take innocent lives!"
"Hoho?" The female demon clan member's eyes narrowed, seemingly scrutinizing Lin Xiang, "Is that so? Although you have quite a lot of mysteries, do you think that you, along with these few, can defeat me? Perhaps you're being a bit naive?"
"It's not just them," With a resounding shout, the sight directed by the voice revealed a group of soldiers clad in armor, led by a golden-haired middle-aged spirit, "Don't just say it's you. We will drive out all these invaders from our homeland!
"Dad! Brother!" Reidy yelled out. In front of her, stood Reggie, alongside with Remi, Paulie Water and Gentle Water.
"Dad, Mom!" Seeing that her parents, whom she was worried of, were fine, Silent Water covered her mouth in joy, her large eyes turning moist.
"Upper S rank!? Three of them too? Therere quite a few middle A ranks and above as well. Damn it, where did these reinforcements come from? Pine!" The female demon clan member turned to glance at the bull-headed demon clan member. His axe was already shattered by Valarie, while one of its horns was broken.
"It's truly unfortunate. Looks like this city isnt as easy to conquer as imagined."
"Of course. Don't underestimate these spirits. Theyve just been living a peaceful life for too long and forgotten their combat instincts. Speaking of which, we would also like to thank you for providing them this opportunity to rekindle their fighting spirits." Yalide appeared on the edge of the city wall, looking down at the female demon clan members from above. A head of black hair billowed in the wind.
