I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

Chapter 208 [Encounter with Monsters and Corpse Demons]

On Dragon Immortal Mountain, Ji Lin carried the offerings for Lord Dragon Immortal and used his golden sword to clear away the weeds and bushes blocking his path. Looking at the golden sword gleaming on his body, Ji Lin showed a surprised expression and said:

"This divine weapon is truly sharp; it's no wonder it was bestowed upon me by the Crimson Kite Immortal."

However, if their father were to use the divine artifact bestowed upon the Youxiong clan by the Crimson Kite Immortal to cut weeds, he would surely be caught and spanked by his father, right?

The thought of his father's "kind" smile as he patted the big board in his hand made Ji Lin involuntarily cover his bottom and make a face of pain. Last time when he was a child, he secretly took the golden sword that was displayed at home to play with and was caught by his father. Instantly, his bottom was subjected to his father's loving punishment.

The "painful" lesson that his little bottom received made Ji Lin much more obedient; at least he wouldn't play with the weapons bestowed upon them by the immortals anymore.

Ji Lin shuddered and then continued to chop at the weeds in front of him with his golden sword. His father was lying on his deathbed and there was nothing else for him to do.

Even so, Ji Lin still had one question: Where does the Dragon Immortal reside?

Although Ji Lin occasionally sees Lord Long Xian in his dragon form returning to Long Xian Mountain, he always flies over from the other side of the mountain. Ji Lin has never seen that place before, but it should be easy to find Lord Long Xian's residence once he climbs to the top of the mountain.

But speaking of Lord Longxian... what should I say when I see Lord Longxian?

Suddenly, Ji Lin felt her mind go blank. Although Ji Lin didn't consider herself a very introverted person, this was the first time she had ever spoken to an immortal.

"Ugh... what should I do..."

Just as Ji Lin was thinking about what to say to Lord Long Xian after they met, a buzzing sound like a mosquito's wings suddenly rang out around him. At first, Ji Lin thought it was the sound of a mosquito, but as the sound grew louder, Ji Lin immediately realized that something was wrong.

Ji Lin raised his golden sword with both hands, assuming a sword stance, and looked around warily. Although it was already late when he arrived from the Youxiong clan, the forest on Dragon Immortal Mountain was not too dark at night. Ji Lin could clearly see what had caused the mosquito-like rustling in the moonlight.

Another white creature with enormous wings.

Monster!?

Upon seeing the creature, Ji Lin was surprised and thought to himself. He had seen winged monsters like this before in his tribe. Apart from the monsters that had been killed, Ji Lin had also seen flying monsters like this. However, although those monsters were very agile, their bodies were much more fragile than the other monsters he had seen before.

Buzz buzz—!

The creatures flying around Ji Lin are Honkai Beasts of the grunt level in Honkai Impact 3, also known as Rush-class Honkai Beasts or Giant Mosquitoes.

The Rush-class Honkai Beasts flew around Ji Lin, seemingly searching for her weaknesses, while Ji Lin held her longsword, her eyes fixed on the flying Rush-class Honkai Beasts.

Although Ji Lin had never dealt with these demonic beasts, his father and clansmen had at least told him about them, and Ji Lin remembered their attack moves very clearly.

Take the flying monster in front of me for example. At most, it can charge up its attack in the air and spin around once to cut enemies with its wings.

Although it has few moves, getting hit by these moves will basically result in serious injury. Moreover, because it flies around, if you don't keep a close eye on it, it might fly off somewhere and attack you from behind.

Therefore, Ji Lin's eyes never leave the figure of the rush-level Honkai Beast. If he accidentally loses sight of it, that flying monster might just hit him on the back.

Then Ji Lin secretly tried to feign an opening. The Rush-class Honkai Beast flew towards him like a fly attracted by something. Ji Lin, who had his back to the Rush-class Honkai Beast flying towards him, was very nervous. However, after sensing the sound of flapping wings, Ji Lin suddenly turned around and swung the golden sword behind him.

Click!

With the sound of something being cut open, Ji Lin could see the monster in front of him being cleaved in two by the golden sword in his hand. The monster twitched a few times on the ground before becoming still, which relieved Ji Lin.

"Phew~ Luckily I managed to hit that monster, but..."

Ji Lin looked at the Charge-class Honkai Beast that he had cut in half and said with some confusion:

"Why are there demonic beasts on Immortal Dragon Mountain, where this Immortal Dragon Lord resides?"

Ji Lin didn't dare to say too much about the deeds of the Immortal Dragon, but according to the other clansmen, the Immortal Dragon seemed to really hate those demonic beasts.

Just as Ji Lin was feeling very puzzled, he suddenly felt a sense of danger behind him and rolled to the side to avoid an attack coming from behind.

As Ji Lin rolled over, the jewelry on her head was knocked off, causing her long black hair to spread out behind her. When Ji Lin looked up, she saw that the enemy who had just attacked her was a strange woman with revealing clothes and a curvaceous figure.

After the strange woman brandished her twin swords, a nearby tree collapsed. When the woman turned and looked at him with lifeless eyes, Ji Lin realized that the strange woman before him was no ordinary person, but rather the legendary...

"A corpse demon!?"

Ji Lin looked at his former corpse demon with a surprised expression, well, the monster that players called the dual-wielding assassin.

Ji Lin never expected that besides encountering demonic beasts, he would also encounter the legendary Corpse Demon on Dragon Immortal Mountain. Corpse Demons are far rarer than demonic beasts!

(At that time, the population was small, so there weren't many suicide squads.)

As for the astonished Ji Lin, the dual-wielding assassin slowly walked towards him, wielding his two black swords. Ji Lin could see from the corpse demon's lifeless eyes that it wanted to kill him.

Chapter 209 [Happy New Year, everyone!]

On the high mountain named "Dragon Immortal Mountain" by the Youxiong clan, Ji Lin, holding a golden sword, was facing off against a double-sword assassin. Although Ji Lin had never seen a corpse demon before, compared to those huge monsters, this corpse demon seemed much easier to deal with.

Although Ji Lin had his own thoughts, he dared not be careless, after all, the corpse demon was holding two long swords, which did not look like ordinary items.

Soon, the dual-wielding assassin facing Ji Lin charged towards him, wielding his twin blades. Ji Lin raised his golden sword and charged back. The two weapons clashed with a metallic clang. Ji Lin discovered that his clan's divine sword couldn't even cut the weapon in the corpse demon's hand. This golden sword was the strongest weapon in their Youxiong clan, capable of easily severing other weapons without sustaining any damage.

But now... Ji Lin looked at the perfectly intact twin swords in the hands of the dual-sword assassin and suddenly wondered if his father had given him a fake golden sword, or if the weapon used by the corpse demon in front of him was also something extraordinary.

Before Ji Lin could figure it out, the dual-wielding assassin unleashed a flurry of attacks, swinging his twin blades wildly at her. Ji Lin used her golden sword to parry the assassin's attacks. Although she managed to defend herself, the heavy blows were quite strenuous for her. After all, Ji Lin was just a little girl with little strength. Although she had practiced some swordsmanship, it was still not enough to deal with a powerful dual-wielding assassin.

After dodging the attacks of the dual-wielding assassins, Ji Lin stopped trying to defend against them and instead began to dodge their attacks.

After all, Ji Lin herself was not good at defending against the dual-wielding assassins. After dodging the attacks, Ji Lin raised the golden sword in her hand and slashed horizontally at the dual-wielding assassins.

However, Ji Lin's attack was instantly blocked by the dual-wielding assassin, who then deflected Ji Lin's golden sword.

"what?!"

Ji Lin stared in surprise at the golden sword that had almost slipped from her hand. The double-sword assassin's parry and counterattack had nearly sent the golden sword flying from Ji Lin's grasp, making her even more wary of the double-sword assassin's strength.

Ji Lin kept some distance from the dual-wielding assassin to ensure she could observe his movements and attack patterns. After observing him, Ji Lin discovered that although the dual-wielding assassin was very powerful and skilled, he seemed to only have a few moves.

Coupled with the lifeless look in the eyes of the dual-wielding assassin, Ji Lin wondered if the assassin lacked any intelligence.

Ji Lin then tried to lure the dual-wielding assassin into attacking, and while the assassin was attacking her, she took the opportunity to strike him with her sword.

After seeing the deep wound his golden sword had slashed across the side of the dual-wielding assassin's body, Ji Lin felt confident that he could defeat the assassin.

Just as Ji Lin thought she had finished off the "seriously injured" dual-wielding assassin, a flash of red light appeared in the assassin's eyes. Seeing this strange phenomenon, Ji Lin immediately sensed something was wrong and quickly took a step back. With a tearing sound, a large tear appeared in the fabric of Ji Lin's clothes, about ten centimeters below her chest. The cold wind rushed in, and the chilling sensation immediately set off alarm bells in Ji Lin's brain. She quickly retreated a few steps and leaned against a tree, panting heavily.

"What happened just now?"

Cold sweat dripped down Ji Lin's forehead as he stared at the dual-wielding assassin whose wound was oozing strange "blood." That attack should have been enough to severely injure someone, but the assassin before him seemed completely unharmed, even wielding his blades and launching a counterattack. This immediately put Ji Lin in a difficult position. This so-called "corpse demon" seemed to have no sense of pain; despite being slashed so deeply, it was utterly unharmed...

Then, when Ji Lin saw that there was a cut on his clothes just below his chest, he felt cold sweat pouring down his back. If he hadn't pushed back a step, he probably would have been cut in half.

However, Ji Lin also realized that the other party had no sense of pain, which made Ji Lin even more careful.

After repositioning his sword, Ji Lin once again engaged the charging dual-wielding assassin. In this battle, Ji Lin was able to handle the assassin's attacks effectively. In the following attacks, Ji Lin targeted the assassin's hands and feet. Since the assassin looked human, Ji Lin treated it like a human, targeting its limbs to weaken its fighting ability. After nearly 10 minutes of this, Ji Lin finally crippled the assassin's hands and feet and then killed it with a single sword strike.

As the dual-wielding assassin "died," his body turned into a black powder and black liquid-like substance. Ji Lin then planted his longsword in the ground and, slightly out of breath, wiped the cold sweat from his brow with his sleeve.

Ji Lin hadn't expected that dealing with a corpse demon would be so difficult. If it weren't for the swordsmanship he had learned from his father when he was young, Ji Lin felt that he would probably be dead today.

Then, realizing something, Ji Lin slapped his hand and shouted:

"Oh right! What about the offerings for Lord Dragon Immortal?!"

Ji Lin took off the package tied to his back and discovered that the pottery jar inside was broken, and the contents of the jar had spilled out. No wonder he felt a damp, cold sensation when fighting the corpse demon; it turned out that the jar containing the offerings on his back had broken. Ji Lin immediately understood what it meant to fail at the last minute. He had finally managed to ride his horse to Dragon Immortal Mountain with the offerings, climbed halfway up the mountain, encountered monsters and corpse demons, and fought them for ten minutes, only to have the offerings he was carrying for Lord Dragon Immortal broken. Ji Lin felt that today was the most unlucky day ever.

Just as Ji Lin was preparing to return to the Youxiong clan to prepare another offering for Lord Longxian, several corpse demons emerged from the shadows around the forest. Ji Lin quickly grabbed her golden sword, which she had planted in the ground, and looked at the approaching corpse demons with a wary expression, feeling extremely tense. Ji Lin hadn't expected to encounter so many corpse demons on Dragon Immortal Mountain. At that moment, the bushes behind Ji Lin rustled, and she immediately pointed her golden sword at the bushes behind her, looking equally alert. Then... Ji Lin saw a silly face with an "OwO" expression appear before her eyes.

Chapter 210 [Death Squad Girl, You've Gotten Too Much of a Thing... (Please Subscribe!)]

"Σ( ° △ °|||)︴eh?"

"OwO Hmm?"

In a grove of trees on Dragon Immortal Mountain, Ji Lin and Youhaka looked at each other, seemingly puzzled by Youhaka's somewhat blank and silly face. Youhaka, on the other hand, glanced at the surprised Ji Lin and then turned his attention to the offerings inside the broken earthenware pot on the ground.

To Ji Lin's utter bewilderment, Yuhaka reached out to touch the offerings inside the earthenware jar. Before Ji Lin could stop him, an arrow flew from the other side and struck Yuhaka squarely on the head with a loud "Duang."

Hmm, with a "Duang" sound...

The expression on Yuhka's face after being hit by the arrow went from "OwO" to "O_O". Yuhka stared blankly at the ranger assassin who had just attacked her. The ranger assassin seemed not to notice Yuhka's expression at all, and raised his longbow to shoot another arrow at Yuhka. However, before the ranger assassin could even draw the bowstring, an arrow that looked like a short spear struck the ranger assassin and pinned her to a large tree.

On Ji Lin's side, she was quite surprised to see Yuhaka suddenly conjure a huge longbow in his hand. It was the first time Ji Lin had ever seen someone conjure a weapon out of thin air like this. What surprised her the most was that the person in front of her was exactly the same as the Dragon Immortal that her father had told her about.

It has a pair of curved horns, orange eyes, long white hair, and is surrounded by blue and white electric light and a gentle breeze.

When Ji Lin first met Yuhaka, Yuhaka still had black hair. After Yuhaka entered a super-charged state and his hair turned white, Ji Lin realized that the small, blank-looking little guy in front of him was actually the Dragon Immortal that his father had mentioned.

Before Ji Lin could react, Yuhaka drew back the bowstring of his hunting bow, and an arrow, resembling a short spear formed from radiance, was nocked onto the bow. Yuhaka then released the bowstring, and the arrow flew out with a whoosh, striking a scythe-wielding assassin and knocking her to the ground.

Then, Ji Lin, who was standing nearby, saw several scythe-wielding assassins approaching them and shouted to Yuhaka beside her:

"Lord Dragon Immortal! There are still corpse demons here!"

Hearing Ji Lin's words, Yuhaka was stunned for a moment. Although Yuhaka did not know who the girl with the golden weapon beside her was referring to when she said "Lord Dragon Immortal," she still noticed the lifeless humans approaching her. So Yuhaka took her hunting bow and broke it in half like she was breaking a tree branch.

Ji Lin, who was standing to the side, was also startled when she saw Yuhaka break the weapon in her hand in half. After all, Ji Lin did not know why Yuhaka suddenly broke the weapon in her hand. But then Ji Lin understood why Yuhaka had broken the weapon.

After Yuhaka broke the hunting bow, the two pieces of the bow in his hand transformed into two longswords.

Ji Lin was quite surprised to see that Yuhaka's weapon had turned into two longswords. She hadn't expected that Yuhaka's weapon could transform into other weapons. This was even more amazing than the divine sword in her hand!

After transforming her weapon into dual swords, Yuhaka charged forward and cleaved her current scythe-wielding assassin and her weapon in two. Another scythe-wielding assassin, attempting to ambush her, swung his weapon to try and cut Yuhaka in half. However, as the other scythe-wielding assassin swung his scythe, Yuhaka combined her dual swords into a single battle axe and swung it at the attacking assassin.

With his strength and speed, Yhwach wielded the divine sword Baradion in its switch axe form with one hand, cleaving the attacking scythe-wielding assassin in two. Yhwach then transformed the switch axe form of Baradion into a greatsword, imbued it with the power of wind, and swung it at the surrounding assassins.

call----!

As Yuhaka swung his greatsword, a tornado was unleashed. The massive tornado swept through the surrounding assassins without them having a chance to react, sending them flying far away.

Ji Lin watched in shock as the assassins were swept away by the tornado. This was the first time Ji Lin had witnessed the power of the Dragon Immortal. The legendary Crimson Kite Immortal also possessed powerful flames that could turn any monster into ashes.

But the feeling brought by rumors and seeing it with one's own eyes is completely different, especially the power that Yuhaka showed, which greatly shocked Ji Lin.

"This is... Lord Dragon Immortal's..."

Before Ji Lin could finish speaking, he felt a wave of fatigue wash over him, making him extremely tired and causing him to faint. Yuhaka, who was not far away, saw Ji Lin collapse on the ground and ran over to him with his short legs.

Yuhaka tilted her head and looked at Ji Lin lying on the ground with great confusion. Even so, Yuhaka still carried Ji Lin on her back and picked up the golden sword from the ground. However, just after Yuhaka picked up the golden sword, it emitted a light. Yuhaka noticed the strangeness of the golden sword, but she didn't pay much attention to it.

After the golden sword in Yuhaka's hand lit up, in an underground ruin far away from Yuhaka's location, a black-haired, blue-eyed girl wearing a rather revealing white dress stared blankly at the spherical object emitting white light in her hand. She then spoke to a black-haired, red-eyed girl who looked similar to her and a white-haired girl wearing a combat outfit resembling a cheongsam:

"Hmm? The Divine Key left with the Youxiong Clan has awakened?"

Hearing the words of the black-haired, blue-eyed girl, the black-haired, red-eyed girl beside her came to her side and said:

"What? The Youxiong clan actually produced a Saint Mark Awakener?"

The black-haired, blue-eyed girl was about to say something when the spherical object in her hand suddenly lost its signal, causing her to pause in surprise. Then, looking at the holographic projection screen displayed on the spherical object, she said with some confusion:

"The signal from the Key of Domination... has disappeared?!"

..............................

Meanwhile, Yhaka shoved the golden sword in his hand into his dimensional portal and carried Ji Lin on his back towards his lair.
