I'm in the world of Xianjian

Lin Shen stood opposite Zhao Linger and Anu, about two meters apart.

Lin Shen complained in his heart: Good fellow, a mage and a wizard teamed up to fight me, what was I thinking? If Li Xiaoyao was here, then I would have enjoyed the "treatment" of a boss.

On the other side, Anu and Zhao Linger were both afraid to take the initiative. Lin Shen took a look and thought, forget it, I'll just go first.

So Lin Shen knocked the ground with his staff, and several big black hands stretched out from the ground.

Zhao Linger and Anu suddenly felt nauseous, and Lin Shen stretched out his index finger and pointed at the two of them.

The huge hands began to pounce on Zhao Linger and Anu, forcing them to dodge backwards. Anu was unable to dodge and was grabbed by two huge hands on her arms. Then two more hands grabbed her legs, leaving her unable to move.

Seeing this, Ling'er used lightning to smash the big hand, but due to negligence, she was also caught by the black hand.

Seeing this, Anu threw out an explosive Gu, and Zhao Linger was saved.

At this time, the black hand surrounded the two of them, and Zhao Linger and Anu stood back to back.

Anu said, "Sister Ling'er, this won't do."

Zhao Linger said, "Eliminate the evildoer in front of you and leave your back to him."

A'nu took out a handful of poisonous insects, chanted a spell, and threw them at the black hand. Zhao Linger also began to gather strength, and shot lightning at the black hand.

After a while, all the black hands summoned by Lin Shen were cleared away.

Anu looked back at Zhao Linger, only to see that she was sweating again. Anu hurriedly supported Zhao Linger and said, "Sister Linger, what's wrong with you?"

Zhao Linger shook her head and said, "I'm fine, don't worry about me."

Anu quickly took out a rat fruit and gave it to Ling'er to eat, saying, "Sister Ling'er, you take a rest first. I'll go fight him."

Anu took out a poisonous insect, chanted a spell, and threw it towards Lin Shen. Lin Shen slapped his palm and blew the insect away. The insect exploded in the air without hurting Lin Shen at all.

Anu drew out his Miao Dao and said, "This time I will take Sister Ling'er away no matter what."

Lin Shen put away his staff, took out the World-Destroying Demon Blade, and said, "If you have the guts to defeat me, then we'll talk."

Anu raised his knife and chopped it off. Lin Shen blocked it with his sword and asked, "Why do you want to take Ling'er back?"

Anu slashed with a knife and said, "She is a Miao princess and a member of the Nuwa tribe. It is only natural that she should do this when her hometown is in trouble."

Lin Shen laughed, "Hahaha, ridiculous. Ten years ago, when Ling'er's mother was framed as a snake demon and the entire Nan Shao nation forced Ling'er to flee her hometown, how could they not have thought that this day would come!"

A snake demon girl when nothing happens, a great savior when something happens! "

After saying that, Lin Shen stabbed with a sword.

Although Anu blocked the attack, the wind from the sword still forced Anu to step back several steps. Anu said, "That's not the case. This is just the Moon Worship Sect's instigation."

Lin Shen said, "What have you been doing in the past 10 years? Why didn't you wipe out the Moon Worship Cult? Why didn't you vindicate the Witch Queen?" After saying that, Lin Shen slashed down with his sword again.

Anu quickly dodged to the side and said, "This...this, the Nuwa tribe protects the people of Miaojiang. This is their duty."

"What a bullshit duty! The Nuwa clan hasn't sacrificed enough for the people!

Her mother died to protect Miaojiang and seal the water monster; her grandmother Zixuan died to protect Shushan and seal the Demon Locking Tower, and so on and so forth. It's not enough!

But what did they get? Only misunderstandings and contempt from generation to generation, and everyone called them a snake demon!

Why can you feel at ease enjoying the efforts of the Nuwa people just by saying it’s fate!

Why! Why can't Ling'er be a little girl who loves to cry and laugh, innocent and lively? Why!

Why do you think that the fate of the Nuwa tribe is the real reason for a 16-year-old girl to shoulder such a heavy responsibility? Ling'er is only 16 years old, 16 years old!

After saying that, Lin Shen sent a sword towards Anu. Ling'er was shocked by Lin Shen's words.

Anu held her sword high to resist Lin Shen's sword energy, forcing her to retreat dozens of steps before she stopped.

Lin Shen had no intention of letting her go. He said, "What the hell is fate? It's just an excuse people make for their own incompetence. If there really is such a thing as the fate of the Nüwa people, I will be the sharp blade that cuts off that fate!"

After saying that, Lin Shen slashed down with his sword, and Anu raised his knife to meet it. The swords collided. With a crisp sound, Anu's Miao Dao was split in half.

At this moment, Anu and Lin Shen heard someone crying. They looked to the side and found that it was Zhao Linger crying, and crying very sadly.

The two of them ran over immediately, and Anu said, "Sister Ling'er, why are you crying?"

Zhao Linger didn't say anything. Lin Shen knew that Linger was crying for herself and her mother's fate, so he said, "Linger, cry if you want to. Don't hold it in. There are only three of us here."

Ling'er looked at Lin Shen and said, "A...Brother Anos." Then she threw herself into Lin Shen's arms and cried non-stop. Ling'er's crying echoed throughout the Time House.

Lin Shen thought: Oh no, this time I've gone too far with my mouth. I think I'll learn the art of talking from Uzumaki Naruto one day, maybe I can even talk a few bosses to death.

But the more I think about this kind of thing, the angrier I get. I just hope Ling'er can be an ordinary girl. I don't want that tragedy to happen again.

It was unknown how much time had passed before Ling'er stopped crying.

Lin Shen asked, "Anu, the bet between you and me..."

Anu said, "I am willing to accept the loss, and I really did not consider Sister Ling'er's feelings. I only wanted Sister Ling'er to go back and rescue the people of Miaojiang.

But I overlooked that Sister Ling'er is also a person, a girl who needs care and protection."

Zhao Linger took Anu's hand and said, "Anu, please stay."

Anu didn't know what to do, so Lin Shen said, "Don't forget the bet you made. If you lose, I will do whatever you want."

Ling'er said, "Brother Anos, please don't go too far. Are you going to ask her to be a servant who serves you tea and water?"

Lin Shen was speechless and said, "What are you thinking? I just want her to stay to witness the day when your Nuwa tribe rewrites its fate."

Anu was stunned and said, "Is this okay?"

Lin Shen said, "Hey, hey, hey, you said that if you lose, I will do whatever you want. What's the matter? You can't afford to lose."

"Who said I can't afford to lose?"

Ling'er said, "That's great, Anu."

Lin Shen used his fingers to lift Ling'er's clothes that were wet with tears and said, "Ling'er, this... we need to have a good talk." Ling'er blushed immediately. Lin Shen said, "No wonder they say women are made of water."

Anu said, "It's all because of you that you made Sister Ling'er cry."

Lin Shen rolled his eyes at Anu and said, "You're just too drunk."

At this time, the system's voice came: "

Ding!

Congratulations to the host for completing the main mission.

Reward the host with 1000 system coins!

Reward the host with the spell Black Hole!"

Before Lin Shen could complain, the system alarm sounded again, "Alert! Alert! Li Xiaoyao is detected to be in danger! Alert! Alert! Emergency mission now issued: rescue Li Xiaoyao and Aunt Li!"

Lin Shen was stunned after hearing this and said, "System, what's going on?"

After a while, a screen appeared in the Time Room. Several small boats were seen heading towards Xianling Island. On board were a dozen Miao soldiers, escorting Li Xiaoyao and his aunt.

Lin Shen thought: It seems that the thing I was worried about has really happened. They really plan to use Li Xiaoyao as a hostage to force Ling'er to surrender. Zhao Ling'er shouted, "Brother Xiaoyao!"

Anu asked, "Sister Ling'er, who is he?"

Lin Shen said, "He is Zhao Linger's husband, Li Xiaoyao."

Anu said, "Oh, I remember seeing him once in Yuhang Town."

Lin Shen said, "These people are really something. They actually thought of using Li Xiaoyao to force Ling'er to submit. Unfortunately, what they don't know is that the thing I fear least is being threatened with murder."

Anu asked Lin Shen what he meant by that, but he ignored her. Then he saw two groups of people confronting each other at the dock. On one side were the Black Miao holding Li Xiaoyao and Aunt Li, while on the other were the Lingyue Palace Master and Grandma with the Shuiyue people.

Lin Shen said, "Ling'er, Anu, let's go back to Xianling Island."

Ling'er and Anu said in unison, "Okay."

So Lin Shen used the Yuexing technique to teleport the three of them back to Xianling Island.
