"Tch!" Unable to distinguish which one was the real body, Shudnan dared not make any rash moves. However, this was exactly what Margery Doe had done. None of the ones surrounding him had a real body; each one only had the power to launch an attack once. Shudnan, with his enormous size, became a sitting duck.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Dozens of phantoms transformed into streaks of light and bombarded Xiudenan's body. This time, he had absolutely no chance to intercept the fireball.

boom!

The fireball that Tilia Lu used to deliver the final blow to Lin Yu engulfed him, and the firelight obscured the joyful smile on Lin Yu's face.

"Thank you for the treat!" The golden flames twisted and turned, replaced by ice-blue flames that emitted a beautiful blue light!

"How is that possible!"

Tilia exclaimed in disbelief. Her sure-fire, fatal blow had indeed hit Lin Yu, but it had not only failed to cause him any harm, but he had even converted her attack into his own power right before her eyes. In Tilia's eyes, this was nothing short of a provocation.

"We've given you such a generous gift, we should at least reciprocate, right?"

Lin Yu smiled slightly, and the ice flames he held high began to condense into a dense array of ice arrows. With a swing of his arm, they rained down on Tilialu and Surat.

call out!

The impressive ice arrows actually had little killing power. Lin Yu was simply using them to attract their attention. Most of the flames were converted into Existence Power by Lin Yu. As a torch, Existence Power was basically equivalent to his life. If he didn't recover some quickly, he would probably disappear before midnight.

Having already seen through everything, Shana seized the opportunity to grab Lin Yu's hand, and the two flew together to the top of the bridge.

Realizing they had been tricked, the brother and sister quickly confronted Shana and Lin Yu.

"Is this it? The source that supports the sealing!"

Lin Yu felt much lighter after his power of existence was replenished.

“That’s it! This is the Noble Phantasm that controls them with its own power!” Shana confirmed Lin Yu’s guess, and even Tilia herself admitted it: “Yes.”

"This is the music box that controls the Cradle Garden. No matter how complex the magic is, once it is put in, it can be used automatically countless times."

Tilia's voice was full of pride, as if she were introducing her beloved toy.

"The body is disappearing?" Lin Yu, who was still unaware of what had happened, stared blankly at Tilia's illusory body.

"Give me back my Zhānhān!"

Even as his sister Tilia's existence began to fade, Surat's attention remained focused on Nie-dono Zena, seemingly unconcerned about Tilia's life or death.

"Hey, hey, your sister is about to disappear!"

Lin Yu frowned slightly. Although the two siblings seemed to rely on each other, he felt something was very strange about them.

"None of that matters, all I want is Zhi Dian Zhe Na!"

Like a willful child, Surat uttered almost heartless words, but Tilialu herself seemed not to care.

Seemingly having lost patience, Surat gripped the 'vampire' in his hand and prepared to attack Lin Yu and Shana. Shana, who never liked to be on the defensive, immediately stepped forward.

Scorching flames erupted from the Zhānhān Shāna, forming a whirlwind of fire that swept outwards.

The music box placed on the bridge was the first to be torn to shreds by the raging flames, and the already illusory Tilialu finally dissipated into phosphorescent flames in the fire.

"My brother, please do whatever you want, I will allow it..."

Before disappearing, the usually arrogant Tilialu murmured about her indulgence of her brother, but tragically, he paid no heed.

The phosphorescent light slowly dissipated, but Surat seemed completely unaware that his sister had vanished forever.

"You are not worthy to be her brother!"

Lin Yu showed no mercy to his enemies, but just a few minutes was enough for him to see the sacrifices Tilialu had made. However, Surat only knew how to pursue what he wanted and ignored his most precious existence. In Lin Yu's eyes, such a person was no different from scum!

Ignoring the disappearance of his sister, Surat charged towards Shana instead.

call out!

Shana expressionlessly tossed the Nite Palace Shroud into the air, and while Surat's attention was diverted, Lin Yu froze his feet to the ground.

"Zhi Dian..."

Shana swiftly leaped up and retrieved the fallen Nietono Shana. The sharp blade pierced through Surat's body. This Crimson Lord, who still longed for Nietono Shana until his death, was easily killed by Shana after leaving his sister's protection...

042. The Mysterious Seven Sins

[Thanks to 'Ulster' for the donation. I also want to apologize again to the True Lord of Life and Death. It was a slip of the hand at noon TT. I've probably been reading too many Daoist novels.]

"whispering sound!"

Seeing that Surat and Tilialu had been killed, Shudnan, who was still entangled with Margery Daw, also chose to retreat after weighing the pros and cons.

"Xiu Denan actually retreated?"

Although Margery Dawson's morale was high, she had suffered heavy losses before. Delaying was possible, but pursuing would be suicidal. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xiudnan retreat.

Clang!

Lin Yu pulled the vampire out of the ground and tried swinging it a couple of times, feeling quite pleased with himself.

"The weight, the feel, wow."

Lin Yu looked at the vampire in his hand and liked it more and more.

"So that's why Xiudenan ran away. It turns out it's already over here."

Margery Dawson flew to the top of the bridge, stepping on a hardcover book, and then gently jumped down.

"I slightly modified the Freedom Technique of those perverted siblings, because collecting the power of existence like a fool should be enough to restore the city."

At this point, Margery Daw even winked at Shana, showing none of the hostility she had shown not long ago.

Even when Rami appeared openly in front of her, it was still the same.

"Hey, hey, hey, I've been chasing you the whole time. Is it okay for you to just show up in front of me like this?"

Margery Daw looked menacing, as if she were about to attack again.

"If you wanted to take action, you wouldn't have said that."

Rami seemed to see things quite clearly, just like when Lin Yu first met him, he had a kind smile on his face, but Lin Yu felt that something always seemed off about him.

"Tch, how boring." Margery Daw pursed her lips and muttered a couple of sentences.

Marjorie Doe glanced at Rami before stepping onto the hardcover book and flying away into the distance without looking back. But everyone present understood that from now on, the eulogy singer would no longer be an enemy.

"This silly girl doesn't know what happened, but she suddenly figured it out."

Lin Yu shrugged. He didn't know what had happened or why Margery Daw had suddenly changed her attitude, but since it wouldn't harm them, he didn't bother to investigate further.

After using their immense power to restore the city, the three arrived at a path along the river.

"Thank you for your care, Heavenly Calamity Fire, and Flame-Haired Burning Eyes, no, Shana."

With the threat of being hunted gone, Rami prepares to embark on his journey once again in order to gather more Existence Power.

"You've helped us a lot too. If it weren't for you, Shana might have been in danger."

Alastoru sounded grateful, but the person in question was completely bewildered.

"Has anything happened?"

Shana was still pondering what Alastor had meant, while Lin Yu, standing beside her, became excited first.

"Hmm." Rami nodded seriously. "Shana must have noticed during the battle that her emotions were completely out of her control."

As soon as Rami finished speaking, Shana was startled; that feeling was too deeply etched in her memory.

"So what exactly happened?"

Shana initially thought it was Surat and Tilialu's doing, but now it seems there's more to the story.

“I don’t understand what that ability is either.” Rami shook his head. “It’s formless and intangible. Even I can only vaguely sense that it has the shape of flames. As for the effects of those flames, Shana should know very well, right?”

"That kind of flame can amplify certain emotions within to their extreme." Shana's face immediately turned serious; that feeling was truly unforgettable.

"It's not the feeling of being controlled by someone else. It's more like someone is blinded by anger. Their thoughts are still their own, but they will make extreme judgments!"

Even now, Shana feels a chill run down her spine just thinking about that feeling of being out of control.

"Hmm, an ability I've never heard of before."

Even Alastor, the oldest Crimson Denizen, had never heard of such a peculiar ability.

"Where is the person who uses the ability?"

The sudden question made Rami pause slightly, and he looked at Lin Yu, whose face was gloomy.

“I’ve never seen him before. He’s probably neither a Crimson Denizen nor a Flame Haze,” Rami stated his assessment.

"Neither a Crimson Denizen nor a Flame Haze?! Could it be Mysteria?"

Alastor and Shana were stunned almost simultaneously.

"Mistis? Could it be that besides me, there is another Mistis who possesses great power?"

Given Shana and Alastor's past attitudes toward Mysteria, Lin Yu had always thought that he was the only one who was special among the Mysteria, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"Yes, we once saw a powerful Mystius, a being that would be considered a calamity even by Flame Haze and Crimson Denizens—Tenmoku!"

"The Nie Dōzō in my hand is a treasure I obtained after defeating Tenmoku."

'Surprisingly, Shana's tone was filled with pride. To be called a calamity by Flame Haze and Crimson Denizens, someone of such exceptional status, suggests that even the weakest of Tenmoku's strength must be comparable to a Crimson Denizen King. It seems I still have a long way to go.'

Lin Yu was unaware that Shana had not been able to unleash her full strength during the battle with the hunters. At that time, her mind was disturbed by Lin Yu, and she could not even exert half of her own strength. Otherwise, she would not have had such a difficult time fighting them.

It should be noted that the Hunter and Margery Do were only on the same level, while Surat and Tiliaru's combat power was definitely above theirs. Even so, the two siblings were still defeated by Shana, and even had to kill Lin Yu to disrupt Shana's attack rhythm, so that they were eventually eliminated by Lin Yu and Shana working together.

"No, the person who launched the sneak attack was not Mysterio."

But Rami rejected everyone's expectations once again.

"Not a Crimson Denizen, not a Flame Haze, not even Mystice, so he can't be human, right?"

Lin Yu said half-jokingly.

"If I'm not mistaken." It was originally just a small test, but to Lin Yu's surprise, Rami actually confirmed his idea.

"That person must be human! And a very, very dangerous human at that!"

Lin Yu had seen Rami's serious demeanor before, but this solemn expression was something he had never shown even when facing Shudenan and the siblings Surat and Tilialu at the same time.

"I don't know how strong that person is, I only know that his name is 'Seven Sins'. If you encounter him, please be careful."
