The Villain Saint is my secondary account

It should be noted that most of these orcs are not benevolent; the moderates are a minority, while the majority are as ferocious as the bandit orcs of the hunting clans.

Moreover, they do not show any friendly inclination towards each other just because they share orc characteristics; otherwise, the original native beastmen would not have been almost wiped out by the current orc races.

How did that outsider from the Eastern Continent gain the recognition of the beast clan in such a short time?

Of course, Ye Xiao only had doubts, but that didn't mean he would stand idly by because of them.

Putting everything else aside, having two or three nets smeared on his face was enough to infuriate him.

But before Ye Xiao could make a move, he felt the ground beneath him suddenly tremble.

A powerful magical force seemed to ripple through the ground. Ye Xiao turned his gaze to the girl, Jinli, and saw that she had clasped her hands together in a peculiar finger gesture, her eyes lowered, and she was muttering something as if she were chanting.

The next moment, the ground around the truck suddenly cracked open, and seven or eight columns of water gushed out, swirling together like azure and snow-white vines, gradually condensing into a lifelike giant dragon head above the truck.

The dragon head, with its fierce and solemn expression, was clearly formed from flowing water, yet every detail, from its scales to its antlers, was distinct.

What kind of spell is this?

Ye Xiao had never seen such flashy water-based magic before. According to the style of elemental mages, most of their spells are practical and rarely involve manipulating magic to sculpt such a detailed image.

A fireball is a round ball of fire, a musket is a pointed cone of fire, and a fire dragon is a very large pointed cone of fire that barely has the outline of an open mouth.

After all, aesthetics don't add to power. With this kind of exquisite craftsmanship, the fireballs thrown by others would already be flying into your face.

But the water dragon summoned by the girl was not entirely like that. The water gushing from the ground wove its outline and expression so naturally that even the torrents spewed from the white dragon's mouth sweeping over the surrounding orcs became a beautiful scene.

The orc bandits on the ground roared and were tossed about by the surging waves, their bodies and horses flying. Seeing the situation was bad, their companions riding flying dragons in the sky raised their spears to throw at the wagon.

However, the water dragon immediately raised its head, let out a furious roar, and several dazzling lights, like stars, appeared inside its pure white body.

These clusters of light were connected by thin lines, resembling stars moving and drawing in invisible magic. In an instant, a bolt of azure lightning struck out from the dragon's horn.

Like ink strokes written with a wolf-hair brush, the sky itself became the canvas, and lightning bolts leaped and flashed, spreading out in an instant among the countless two-legged flying dragons.

Then a group of orcs and their mounts fell from the sky like dumplings being dropped into boiling water, their bodies covered in charred black from being struck by lightning.

Elegant and timeless.

Looking at the scene before him, Ye Xiao suddenly had this thought pop into his head for some reason.

However, it must be said that Koi Lu's "Dragon Raises Its Head" spell was truly spectacular in terms of visual appeal.

As the water receded and the dragon's shadow vanished, the bandit orc, now left with no one, stared in disbelief at his fallen comrades lying on the ground.

"I apologize, I am unaware of your compatriot's resistance to wood-based magical arts. Please forgive me if you are seriously injured."

Koi opened her eyes, her words still revealing a polite demeanor.

"Brother Ye, why does she seem so different from us?"

Mingya asked in surprise.

"I'd like to know that too."

Ye Xiao waved his hand, thinking that if the system shop could list a few of the spells from the Dongyang Continent, he would buy them all just for their looks.

Even the toughest orc has a soft tongue. After his people fell like wilted cabbages, the bandit leader surrendered on his own initiative, running around in front of and behind the wagon to untie the ropes and nets for everyone.

The truck continued on its way, but this time it was escorted by several wyverns in the sky.

Mingya tirelessly sought Jinli's guidance on how to use the spell she had just witnessed. Although for him, as a man among men, dashing swordsmanship was paramount, it would naturally be even better if he could unleash some cool spells.

Unfortunately, even though Jinli was willing to teach, Mingya practiced a few times but didn't learn anything except almost breaking his finger.

Ye Xiao lay down beside him and tried to learn it without making a sound, but unfortunately, he didn't seem to have the talent to learn that kind of magic, so he gave up.

After that, nothing unexpected happened. Two days passed, and the towering silhouette of Thunder City finally came into view.

Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Shadow of Thunder City

"That man is here."

At the top of Thunder City's main fortress, a girl dressed in a black robe and wrapped in bandages stood on the rampart, gazing at the distant wilderness.

Behind her stood three figures kneeling on one knee, looking at her with utmost respect.

The three were dressed differently. The one on the far left was a middle-aged man wearing the same black robes of a shepherd as the young priestess. He had powerful eyes and a dim bronze oil lamp was chained to his waist.

"Priest, I'll handle that guy."

"In the present world, he is protected by a false god and cannot act rashly, but in this timeline, he is just a mortal."

"Just keep an eye on Encia's stripping progress."

The priestess on the wall simply said calmly.

"As ordered."

The shepherd man immediately lowered his head and said nothing more.

However, a strange light seemed to flash across his calm, still eyes.

In the middle of the three was a burly, green-skinned orc. If an ordinary orc saw this, he might find it hard to believe that there were fellow orcs who were so subservient to humans.

Of course, they would be even more shocked if they knew that this tall and strong orc was actually the city lord of Thunder City.

The orc's sturdy, dark armor was engraved with a hammer entwined with lightning, signifying his noble status as a descendant of the Thunder King clan.

“Grush, tell those people from the Eastern Continent that they have found the person they were looking for.”

This time, the priest issued orders to the orc city lord.

"Their strength isn't bad either. It would be best if we could persuade them to resolve this problem directly, thus avoiding the backlash from the Threads of Fate. Of course, if that's not possible, then it's up to you."

"As ordered."

The orc lord, known as Grush, said respectfully.

Finally, the one on the far right of the three was a short girl wearing a purple cloak, with a silver crescent moon embroidered on the cloak.

If Ye Xiao were to see the Full Moon Priestess, he would surely recognize the style of this cloak.

In fact, even though they had never met, Ella, who was far away in Valencia, had already been tricked by this girl with a faint smile on her lips at the Royal Police Station in the Fog City.

She was the younger of the two Full Moon Priestess sisters who were observing the Royal Police Station from the building opposite the station.

How this guy managed to secretly orchestrate the theater attack in Valen Fog City and then reappear in this orc city-state thousands of miles away in the past remains unknown.

"Eh? What about me? What about me, High Priest?"

Seeing that the dark shepherd girl in front of him was not calling his name for a long time, the short full moon priest seemed a little impatient and asked.

"The Full Moon Order... you can just observe from the sidelines."

The Dark Healer girl paused, "This is none of your business."

"Oh, that's such a pity."

The full moon priestess's tone was dejected; she spoke of regret, but the playful expression on her face clearly indicated that she didn't truly mean it.

The Dark Healer girl didn't speak, but simply turned her head slightly and glanced at the other person indifferently.

She doesn't trust this guy.

She could sense that there was something else behind the Full Moon Cult that had approached her for cooperation, but she couldn't see through it at her current level of understanding.

She didn't understand why her own deity would issue a decree to involve the other party in this divine substitute project, and even replace the position that should have been held by the merman god with this suspicious Full Moon Cult.

But she still dared not entrust this important matter to this man who seemed so unpleasant. This plan was crucial to the Lord she served, and there was no room for error.

"Alright alright."

Seeing the other party staring at her coldly, the Full Moon Priestess quickly put on a fearful tone, "Then I'll just obediently watch from the side, please don't be angry, Priestess, hehe."

The Dark Healer girl pursed her lips, turned her head back, and then looked into the distance again.

……

At the same time, on the main road outside Thunder City.

Lying on the truck pulled by the kodo beast, Ye Xiao watched as the two-legged wyvern that had protected them all the way gradually descended from the sky.

"This...this sir, hehe,"

The orc chieftain of the hunting clan looked at the black-haired girl, Koi, in the carriage with a fawning expression, "We can only take you this far. Going any further wouldn't be appropriate."

"Huh? Why?"

Before Jinli could speak, Mingya, standing to the side, curled his lip, looking nonchalant and fierce, and said, "These last two steps won't tire you out, will they?"

You fucking stinky human.

The orc bandit leader's lips twitched as he cursed inwardly. If he hadn't been unable to defeat that woman, he would have killed these two arrogant human men.

Especially that guy with the bird's nest hair who's been lying in the carriage the whole time, what's he trying to act all high and mighty for? Does he really think he's the boss?

Ye Xiao, who was resting with her eyes half-closed, suddenly felt a tickle in her nose. She subconsciously touched it and was surprised—strange, why does it feel like someone is cursing me?

Why only go this far?

The koi carp also had a calm expression and asked softly.

“My lord, you see, the work we do is somewhat of a gray industry. Although the guards of Thunder City won’t come out to deal with it, it’s still a bit too arrogant to fly in their faces.”

The orc leader scratched the back of his head sheepishly. "Well, we've already reached our destination, and we know we were wrong. We've been guarding you for two days. At most, we'll compensate you for the travel expenses incurred. How about you just let us go for now?"

"Oh dear, so you're running away already? Weren't you having a blast throwing harpoons back then?"

Mingya said sarcastically from the side.

The orc leader's fist hardened, but when his gaze fell upon the composed girl, he could only tell himself to be patient.

"Mr. Ye, what do you think?"

The koi suddenly looked at Ye Xiaodao.

"Ok?"

Ye Xiao was a little surprised. She lifted the hat that was covering her eyes to block out the sun a crack, peeked out, and said, "I don't care."

"Ok."

Koi nodded politely and looked back at the orc, "Don't do this kind of thing again."

"Okay, okay, you're right."

The orc leader had a smile on his face, but what he was really thinking was, "He's a damn greenskin clan, what else am I supposed to do but rob people or work?"

After reluctantly leaving behind a few gold coins, the orcs of the hunting clan rode their wyverns and scattered away from the wagon.

The group disappeared in an instant at that sprinting speed, as if afraid that Ye Xiao and the others would change their minds.

"Miss Koi is still kind-hearted."

The minotaur driving the kodo in front of the wagon said while cracking the reins, "Although we are both beastmen, there is no need to have too much sympathy for these Chaos Greenskins who are keen on plundering. They won't change their ways after just a few words."

"Thank you, Mr. Tal, I understand."

The koi smiled, and the girl's delicate face was especially captivating in the gentle breeze that swept across the green fields.

Chapter Seventy-Eight: Parting

"Pop—pop pop pop pop—"

Below the high walls of Thunder City, Ye Xiao and his group were queuing up to enter the city gate along with trucks from all over the Southern Continent.

The sudden, loud trumpet blast startled Mingya, who was lying in the carriage, trying to practice the Dongyang magic by counting on his fingers.

"What's going on? We're just entering the city, and there's a welcoming team playing music?"

"It's definitely not to welcome us."

Koi covered her mouth and chuckled, then glanced at something in the distance and gestured, "It must be because of over there."

Mingya turned his gaze and saw that several Kodo Beasts with luxurious canopy carriages were lined up in a long line and passing by in a grand procession on the street.

The loud horn blare came from the goblin band beside the convoy. These short, green-skinned creatures clung to the brightly lit carriages, some banging drums and gongs, others scattering flowers, creating a lively atmosphere along the entire street.

"Is this some kind of demon god worship ceremony?"

Mingya asked curiously.

"It's a wedding, isn't it?"
