Another World: The Failed Magician

The white giant and the black giant hand fought back and forth in mid-air.

Although the two figures were evenly matched, Howard was already panting heavily, and sweat covered his aged face.

In contrast, the elder acted as if nothing had happened, looking at him with disdain as if he were an ant.

"How long can you wield this power that doesn't belong to you?"

When the other person ignored him, the elder seemed to lose patience.

He stretched out both hands and clenched them tightly into the void, from which another giant black hand emerged.

Under the combined attack of the two giant hands, the white giant quickly fell into a disadvantageous position.

At the same time, Howard's physical strength also reached its limit.

The white giant's speed also began to slow down, and its two giant hands seized the white giant's weakness, gripping its throat tightly.

With a deafening roar, the white object dissipated into specks of light in the air.

Howard also coughed up blood and collapsed to the ground.

The elder stepped forward with a cold smile.

Just then, a gentle breeze blew by.

Howard, who had been lying on the ground, suddenly appeared next to Lu Xuan.

The elder turned to look at Lu Xuan, his expression extremely cold.

"You want to meddle in other people's business too?"

"It's normal for a dean to protect a student's family member, and haven't you achieved your goal? Give me some face and let him go."

"Do I need to give you face?"

The elder waved his right hand, and a giant black hand descended from the sky.

Lu Xuan snapped his fingers.

The water elemental suddenly began to grow enormous, and the giant water elemental punched the giant hand back.

But the huge aftershocks from the collision hit Howard directly.

Li Mengyu reacted swiftly, deflecting the aftershocks of the confrontation with a single sword strike.

This barely saved Howard's life.

"Take him to a safe location first."

After pondering for a moment, Li Mengyu had no choice but to do as she was told.

She led Howard toward the exit.

"Wait for me, I'll be back soon."

Soon only the elder and Lu Xuan remained in the entire space.

A hint of seriousness appeared in the elder's eyes.

"You will try to stop me too."

The person in front of me was strange. There was no fluctuation of magic or battle aura on his body, yet he was able to easily block my attacks.

Lu Xuan helplessly shrugged.

"No! When did I say I was going to stop you? I was just helping someone out. What you're doing is none of my business."

"Then what are you doing here?"

"Leave me alone."

Lu Xuan's cheeky reply.

The elder stared intently at Lu Xuan, as if he wanted to devour him alive.

At that moment, the stone coffin actually made a sound.

Lu Xuan spoke slowly.

"I already said I won't stop you, so why are you so wary of me? And look over there, it might really wake up soon, then it's hard to say who will win or lose."

After hearing this, the elder glared fiercely at Lu Xuan.

He then turned and rushed toward the stone coffin.

He didn't know what this kid was up to, but Lu Xuan was right about one thing: the thing in the stone coffin was indeed about to awaken, and his time was running out.

Although he didn't know what Lu Xuan's plans were, he could only deal with the things in the stone coffin first.

The elder quickly arrived in front of the stone coffin.

He pressed his right hand tightly against the stone coffin, and that chaotic and terrifying aura emanated from his body once again.

An aura erupted from his body instantly, and a large plume of black mist detached from him and rushed toward the stone coffin.

After the black mist dissipated, the elder collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon, lifeless.

The stone coffin emitted a dazzling light, resisting the black mist.

The two were so entangled that it was impossible to determine which was superior for the time being.

Lu Xuan sat down quietly to the side.

So far, everything has gone exactly as he planned.

That black mist was the resentment of the God of Light. The God of Light died for unknown reasons, which generated immense resentment. And because Howard intercepted its faith, the resentment grew into an independent entity.

The resentment had somehow broken free of its seal and was now hidden within the elder.

At this moment, the seal that Howard used to seal his faith was broken, and resentment and the true form of the God of Light will engage in a fierce battle.

The victor will take over the faith and become a complete deity.

Lu Xuan had no intention of stopping it all.

Howard tried to stop it; he made many preparations, but ultimately failed.

The power of the resentment exceeded Howard's initial expectations; even with the help of the sleeping God of Light, he could not destroy it.

Lu Xuan, who was casually sitting on the ground, snapped his fingers. The exit that had just existed had vanished without a trace, and the entire space had been completely sealed off without anyone noticing.

Those inside can't get out, and those outside can't get in.

This was the last time he would lie to Li Mengyu. Another reason he saved Howard was to get Li Mengyu out of the way.

At this point, the stone coffin gradually calmed down.

However, in a moment, the power of faith transformed into a faint light and gradually seeped into the sealed space.

Lu Xuan tried to stop him, but to no avail.

It turned out to be the worst-case scenario I had imagined.

As faith gradually seeps into the stone coffin, a terrifying entity within it slowly awakens.
