"Boom!"

A loud clap of thunder came from the factory, the piercing sound causing people to cover their ears.

Lightning illuminated the surroundings, and screams echoed through the factory. Strange and disgusting shadows appeared in the electric light, their number unknown.

“Zhaoting…”

Zhang Lulu was at a loss for what to do. She bit her lower lip, made up her mind, and rushed into the processing plant.

Mo Xie hasn't arrived yet, but she can't wait any longer; she can't let Xu Zhaoting deal with those terrifying monsters alone.

As she ran to the factory gate, a strong gust of air rushed out, causing her to lower her head.

Looking up, one immediately sees four deformed and ugly monsters with severely twisted limbs. Their faces are more like those of ghost monkeys, and their skin is completely black.

Looking further inside, five men in gray cloaks were besieging Xu Zhaoting, while more than a dozen deformed monsters were lurking around.

Xu Zhaoting used his Wind Track technique to dodge a sneak attack from a black beast demon with a side jump. He then spotted Zhang Lulu standing at the gate out of the corner of his eye, and his face immediately showed a look of tension.

"Lulu, what are you doing in here? Get out of here!"

In that moment of distraction, the Black Beast Demon, who had been waiting for an opportunity, seized the chance and pounced with its claws.

"Zhao Ting... Water Control - Cycle!"

At the critical moment, Zhang Lulu quickly connected with the water system star orbit, and several silk-like water streams circulated around Xu Zhaoting, forming a water shield that blocked the claw attack.

The black beast demon was sent flying backward and crashed into the wall.

"Damn it, you've ruined our big plan!"

Seeing that the Black Beast Demon's sneak attack had failed, Gray glared fiercely at Zhang Lulu and said angrily.

They were originally here to ambush their target, but an unrelated kid showed up and completely ruined their ambush plan.

Judging by the timeline, the real target is probably arriving soon. We absolutely cannot let the target know in advance that they plan to take action against him!
"Hurry up and kill them both! Clean up the scene as quickly as possible, don't leave any trace!"

Gray waved his hand and angrily commanded the Black Beast Demon.

The four black beast demons near the gate immediately fixed their eyes on Zhang Lulu, like a pack of hungry wolves eyeing a delicious meal, and they rushed toward her in a frenzy.

"Lulu, run!"

Seeing this, Xu Zhaoting broke free from the encirclement of the Black Beast Demon and used his Wind Track technique to rush towards Zhang Lulu.

In her haste, Zhang Lulu controlled the water system star orbit, forming a water barrier from the countless water droplets around her.

Shui Yu only managed to slightly block the fatal attack for her, but she was no match for the relentless tearing by a large group of black beast demons. Soon, Shui Yu was breached and could only watch helplessly as claws fell.

At the critical moment, Xu Zhaoting finally arrived and shoved Zhang Lulu aside. Her sharp claws slashed straight across his chest, leaving a long trail of blood. The shocking blood spurted out, instantly staining the rusty iron windows on both sides red.

"Zhao...Zhao Ting!"

Zhang Lulu screamed and quickly grabbed Xu Zhaoting's body, which was about to fall to the ground. She reached out to cover her bleeding wound, but she couldn't stop the bleeding.

"Should we take this woman out for some fun?"

When Gray Three saw Zhang Lulu let out a pitiful cry, a lustful glint flashed in his eyes.

"We've already failed this time. If we delay any further, we'll be in for the steward's punishment."

Haiji glared at him and said in an icy voice.

The moment Grey thought of that seemingly gentle and refined person who was actually cruel at heart, all the jumbled thoughts in his mind vanished instantly.

"Zhao...Zhao Ting, please...please don't close your eyes!"

Zhang Lulu cradled the head of the person in her arms, sobbing and crying, tears streaming down her face.

"Don't...don't cry, it's all...my fault...my fault..."

Xu Zhaoting managed a gentle but pale smile and raised his hand to touch her cheek.

At that moment, he felt a burning pain in his chest, had great difficulty breathing, and could barely move his body.

He hated that he wasn't strong enough, hated that he couldn't stop the Black Vatican, hated that he couldn't protect the girl he loved...

A large group of black beast demons surrounded the two, seemingly enjoying the process of slowly torturing a living person to death.

"Kill them quickly, or I'll feed you all to the big ghost!" Hearing Gray One's order, the black beast demons were terrified and finally dared not tease these two terrifying creatures any longer. One of them pounced first.

Just then, the silver dragon mark on Xu Zhaoting's shoulder suddenly emitted a brilliant light, and a blood-red longsword spun out, directly cleaving the black beast demon in two!
To everyone's astonishment, the blood-red longsword easily pierced the ground, as if it had pierced a block of tofu.

The silver dragon mark on the hilt flashed, and with a shimmering silver light, a slender figure appeared out of thin air. He half-squatted on the ground, his right hand grasping the hilt of the sword, the hem of his robes billowing high behind him before slowly falling down.

"Am I late?"

"Cough...no..."

Upon hearing that reassuring voice, Xu Zhaoting coughed violently, blood still in his mouth, and grinned.

"You... came...just in time..."

Looking at the reassuring figure in front of him, his nerves and body relaxed involuntarily. Exhaustion overwhelmed him, and he slowly closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Moye... the rest... is up to you...

"Target spotted! Charge! Charge now!"

Gray's eyes flashed with a fierce light as he gave orders to the black beast demons.

They originally thought the operation had failed, but to their surprise, the target dared to come and die even knowing there was a battle going on, which suited them just fine!
Pulling Yama out of the ground, Mo Xie stood up straight, his sword-like eyes coldly fixed on the horde of black beast demons charging towards him.

Seeing at least fifteen black rabbit demons rushing towards her, Zhang Lulu almost fainted.

When a mage has no protective abilities, the worst thing they can do is be attacked by multiple enemies at once.

Under the combined attack, the mage was completely unable to cast spells!

Mo Xie made no move, holding Yama in his arms and standing still, watching helplessly as the Black Beast Demon drew closer and closer.

When they were less than three meters apart, his eyes suddenly emitted an unprecedentedly strong silver light, revealing a domineering nature amidst his solemnity!

"Mind Control - Disperse!"

The black beast demon pounced, its sharp claws about to reach Mo Xie.

Instantly, an invisible force emanated from Mo Xie and spread outwards, passing through the body of the Black Beast Demon in mid-air.

The next second, accompanied by a loud whooshing sound that echoed throughout the factory, the group of black beast demons were thrown backward by an invisible shockwave, crashing heavily to various parts of the factory and letting out painful howls.

"what?!"

The five grey-robed cultists couldn't help but gasp in surprise at the incredibly impactful scene before them.

What just happened? That person just stood there without moving and sent more than a dozen black beast demons flying.

Mo Xie didn't even glance at the group of black beast demons lying on the ground. He sheathed Yama and turned to check Xu Zhaoting's injuries.

Zhang Lulu snapped out of her daze after what she had just witnessed, tears mingling with the blood on her face, and choked out as she spoke.

"Brother Xie, please save Zhaoting!"

Mo Xie nodded, took out a healing potion from his spatial ring, and applied it to Xu Zhaoting's wound.

Seeing that the bleeding had stopped and his injuries had improved significantly, he activated the Summoning Star Orbit.

An eagle's cry rang out from the dimensional rift, and Xiao Qing flew out, slowly landing beside him.

"You should go to the hospital first."

After helping Xu Zhaoting and Zhang Lulu onto the eagle's back, Mo Xie patted Xiao Qing's head and asked her for a favor.

"Xiaoqing, go as fast as you can."

Xiaoqing rubbed against his palm, flapped her wings, and disappeared into the night sky in the blink of an eye.

Watching them leave, Mo Xie slowly turned around and looked at the five gray-robed cultists.

"I originally intended to finish you off in one go, but I've suddenly changed my mind..."

He raised his head, a sinister crimson light flashing in his eyes, revealing a ferocious and terrifying smile.

"I'm going to have to torture you all properly!" (End of Chapter)
