I Might Be A Fake Cultivator
chapter-563

The Long Shang shuddered as the protective barrier enveloping the Realm Essence Crystals was ripped open by Rou Gu.

The golden wheel behind its back suddenly expanded and started spinning rapidly.

Boundless streaks of golden light washed through the space while countless dragon symbols burst out from the wheel and attached themselves to the Long Shang's body. Dragon patterns started appearing on its scales, gradually transforming them from white into gold. At the same time, its aura started growing at an insane rate!

"The snow maidens are done for. The Long Shang knows that its crystals have been stolen, and it's about to sacrifice its blood to fight with all its strength!" Xiao Ze gazed at the three snow maidens sympathetically.

Rou Gu placed the Realm Essence Crystals into her storage ring and was just about to flee.

"Hahaha… don't even think about escaping!" Merlin bellowed in anger, and soul warriors surged from his banner. They flew toward several locations in the void and formed an imposing Blood Slaughter Spell Formation.

"Haha, you dare snatch my Realm Essence Crystals?! This place will make a nice graveyard for you!" Cassidy recited an incantation, and a blood sword materialized in the void. A vast power was infused into the glinting blade, causing it to radiate with fearsome killing intent.

Tobias didn't speak, yet his fists had already descended from the sky. His fists had yet to strike their target, but the monstrous pressure wave created by them had already caused the earth within a radius of one thousand meters to fracture and cave in.

Rou Gu's body transformed into a blue sword once again, and her crisp voice reverberated throughout heaven and earth. "Heh, do you people still not understand the current situation? In terms of speed, no one can surpass me!"

"Is that so?"

A deep and husky voice suddenly sounded from next to her.

This was a golden figure, which had a dazzling wheel on its back, and it was currently emitting a formidable aura.

The blue sword penetrated through the void without any hesitation. However, the speed of the golden figure's fist was even faster!

Boom!

The energy contained within the golden fist exploded outward in a spherical wave, and the earth within a five-kilometer radius was obliterated into dust.

Rou Gu's sword body shattered, and she was forced to transform back into her human form. She spluttered blood as she collapsed onto the ground.

Right at this moment, the attacks of the three Blood Tribe members also arrived.

"Palace Leader Rou Gu!" Yan Hua dashed before Rou Gu, and blood spurted from her slender wrist. Her blood formed into a strange blue blood orb that enveloped the two of them.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Blood Slaughter Spell Formation transformed the space into a slaughterhouse, and countless crimson energy swords shot toward the snow maidens and the Long Shang.

The crimson swords shattered heaven and earth as they slashed into the blue blood orb.

The fist also landed at this instant, and the Long Shang and snow maidens were all hit.

A blood-red color suffused through heaven and earth and swallowed everything in its path. It was as though the starry night sky had collapsed, and all matter had ceased to exist.

The terrifying shockwaves generated by the attacks swept out over ten kilometers.

Xiao Ze cast a protective barrier in front of An Lin, Tina, and Xue Zhantian.

"Rou Gu! Yan Hua!" Su Jingxiang was standing on a patch of sunken land as she yelled in panic.

Her white dress was stained with blood, and she appeared extremely disheveled. Moreover, there was a gaping hole in her abdomen. It was clear that she had been severely wounded by the Long Shang's frenzied attack.

The destructive energy permeating through the space gradually dispersed. The protective orb formed from Yan Hua's blue blood had already shattered, and the two snow maidens were half-kneeling in a gigantic crater. Although they had managed to survive the flurry of attacks, they were riddled with wounds and appeared to be on the brink of death.

The Long Shang remained standing in mid-air, and the golden wheel behind its back kept rotating without pause. In fact, its wounds, which were bleeding with golden blood, actually started to heal rapidly!

"Heh… Those two snow maidens are hard-pressed to escape death." A cold sneer emerged on Xiao Ze's face.

"Cassidy, Tobias, and Merlin are strong enough to deal with the Long Shang, right?" After realizing how powerful the Long Shang was, a look of concern spread across An Lin's face.

"Rest assured, the Long Shang can't hold on for much longer. Members of the Blood Tribe are renowned for their extraordinary vitality. If they drag the battle out for long enough, then the Long Shang will be no match for them. I'm just afraid that… this is all part of a greater conspiracy…" As he said this, Xiao Ze hugged An Lin's arm tightly.

An Lin: "…"

What's with all these conspiracy theories and unwarranted fears? Living like this must be so tiring…

With this in mind, An Lin patted Xiao Ze's head sympathetically. His face was full of compassion and benevolence.

The Long Shang glowered at the two snow maidens before it. Then, its four hands unclenched, and four bone-chilling swords materialized in its hands.

A look of regret finally surfaced on Yan Hua's face.

The rims of Rou Gu's eyes were red, and her delicate pink lips were pressed together firmly. It looked as though she was trying her best to hold back tears. She removed her storage ring and placed it into Yan Hua's hand. "It was because of my arrogance that you two were dragged into this matter," she said softly. "I'll sacrifice myself to hold them back. Hurry up and escape with Su Jingxiang!"

"Don't act like this… We'll escape together!" Yan Hua dragged Rou Gu up roughly.

Rou Gu gave a sad smile. Then, rays of blinding blue light shot out from her eyes.

"No!" Yan Hua shrieked in anguish.

Upon seeing this, An Lin silently wiped at the corner of his eyes. "Such a touching moment. Why did they become like this? They should be able to enjoy life under this beautiful stretch of starlit sky…"

Xiao Ze stared at An Lin in astonishment. Tina's emerald eyes also widened in shock.

"Master, didn't you say that snow maidens are enemies of the human race. Why are you showing sympathy toward them?" Xiao Ze blinked his eyes in confusion.

An Lin sighed softly. "But they're also magnificent lifeforms… We all live under this heaven and earth, and we all have the right to seek happiness. Setting aside our differences, all of us are delicate flowers journeying to discover our happiness in this vast world. Now, however, two of these beautiful flowers are about to wither…"

Tina: "Giant An Lin is so benevolent!"

"Master… You want to rescue these beautiful snow maidens?" Xiao Ze chuckled. "You can order the Blood Tribe to help!"

An Lin suddenly came to a realization. He turned to his Blood Tribe slaves and yelled, "You guys! Hurry up and assist the snow maidens! Don't let them die!"

Cassidy, Merlin, and Tobias were all dazed upon hearing his order.

Rou Gu, who had activated a mystical technique and was about to sacrifice herself, was also stunned by An Lin's words. A look of bewilderment spread across her face.

"Every tribe that pursues happiness has the right to live peacefully in this world!" An Lin continued, "Everyone is equal… You guys, hurry up and protect them!"

Cassidy: "…"

Merlin: "…"

Tobias: "…"

Whoosh!

Meanwhile, the Long Shang had already used its four swords to slash out numerous golden sword projections. Its dragon might swept through the space, and the piercing auras of the blades caused one's soul to quake in fear. Jet-black ditches were torn into the crystalline land.

Rou Gu was of the Return to Void Intermediate Stage, yet her power was still inferior to the Long Shang even after she activated a mystical technique. Tears rolled down her face as she continued to retreat. "Hurry up and escape!" she cried.

Yan Hua gritted her teeth. Just as she was about to turn around and escape, the Long Shang launched a devastating sword projection toward her.

The sword projection was insanely quick, and its might was equal to the full-power attack of a Return to Void Intermediate Stage cultivator. Her body was already riddled with severe wounds, and it was clear that she would be unable to endure the destructive power of this sword projection.

Am I going to die here?

Yan Hua's petite body appeared especially tiny and insignificant before the devastating golden sword projection. She looked weak and fragile, like a leaf of duckweed that was being tossed and thrown by the raging sea.

Right at this moment, however, a tall and slender female appeared before her. This black-robed female drew upon all of her strength and released a crimson sword projection.

The night sky was lit up as the golden and crimson energies collided.

Cassidy's golden hair billowed behind her, and a hint of exasperation appeared on her breathtakingly beautiful face. "Ah… Why the hell am I carrying out such unreasonable orders…"

There was an expression of shock and surprise on Yan Hua's pretty face. She had never imagined that she would be saved by a member of the Blood Tribe, much less by An Lin.

It appeared as though… this was already the second time.
