I really didn't want to burn it.

"Shut up, you'd better not say anything!"

No, this system is reminding you that you should pursue this as soon as possible; the control panel is about to reach its limit!

"Well, at least this guy's plan to smash the galaxy into the Nine Realms didn't succeed."

Li Ang knew he had no other choice, so he leaped into the light curtain.

After all three people on site disappeared, the Rainbow Bridge control panel could no longer hold on, and amidst the crackling of lightning, it came to an end.

The out-of-control light curtain twisted like putty and began to shake violently.

boom!

Finally, the inevitable explosion occurred, and the twisted control panel flew out of the temple.

Fortunately, due to the unique nature of the Rainbow Bridge, the temple itself was reinforced, which prevented it from becoming ruins like the temples below the mountain.

However, a powerful airflow still blew down from the mountain, startling both sides who were fighting.

Almost simultaneously, everyone tacitly stopped what they were doing and looked up at the temple on the mountain.

Unfortunately, those at the foot of the mountain could not see the interior of the temple; they could only see the Rainbow Bridge Temple, whose exterior remained intact.

Everything seemed to be normal.

So, after a ceasefire that lasted less than 10 seconds, the war resumed.

Chapter 278 Li Ang: This National Preceptor Has a Connection with the Underworld

A fierce wind howled in my ears.

When Li Ang came to his senses, he was spinning in the air.

At that moment, he had no energy to observe his surroundings, because he was focused on his opponent and his wife.

Before him, Odin (Spock) held onto Skadi tightly as they flew through layers of clouds.

Li Ang narrowed his eyes, placed his hand in front of him, and stared at the strong wind writing a rune in the air.

"?!"

Using the runes he had hastily written, Li Ang managed to control the wind around his body to help him accelerate.

A few seconds later, Li Ang, who was the last to cross over, had already moved forward to a distance where he could reach out and touch the two people in front of him.

"Leon!"

Upon seeing her husband, Skadi stretched out her hand behind her, her fingers fully extended, her eyes filled with hope and expectation.

[Host, don't you think this scene looks just like the finale of Ultraman Z?]

Li Ang snorted coldly and did not respond.

If he dared to open his mouth while flying against the wind at high speed at this moment, the result would be absolutely excruciating.

Yes, literally an explosion.

Although he didn't say "Shout my name," Leon responded to Skadi with his actions.

He defied the strong wind and reached out his right hand to grab his wife.

Although Leon felt his hand brush against Skadi's fingers several times, the strong wind around him prevented him from holding on tight.

"Damn it! If only the runes were even a little stronger..."

Li Ang leaned his body forward and tried to keep it streamlined to reduce drag so he could fly closer.

This time, Li Ang finally grasped Skadi's outstretched hand.

"Skadi!"

The excitement in his heart invigorated Li Ang.

Odin (Spock) immediately turned around and held his spear to Leon's throat.

"You really are a persistent ghost. Do you really think you can save your wife?"

Odin (Spock) mocked with a fake smile.

"roll!"

Without a word, Li Ang punched Odin (Spopak) in the face. Unfortunately, due to the headwind, the power of his punch was greatly reduced, and he couldn't even tickle the other's itch.

Odin (Sprypap) wielded his spear, but the strong winds caused him to lose his aim while holding the spear with one hand, leaving only a wound on Li Ang's cheek.

Li Ang regretted carrying Gáe Bolg on his back before entering the light curtain; otherwise, he would never be in such a passive position now.

But since I chose the hard mode, I have to finish this game no matter what.

Leon punched Odin (Spopak) in the stomach, this time hitting his weak spot, and he could feel Odin (Spopak) loosen his grip. He immediately realized that this was the opportunity he had been waiting for.

"It's now!"

Leon pulled Skadi out, and at the same time kicked Odin (Spopak) in the chest, and the reaction force separated the two of them completely.

Unfortunately, this action caused Leon to loosen his grip on Skadi's hand.

Skadi was immediately blown away by the wind, drifting to a place that Leon couldn't reach.

The individual was tumbling through the clouds, flying towards the densely fogged mountains.

Odin (Spopak) was the first to fall; he crashed into a mountain peak and then disappeared from sight.

Li Ang could vaguely see a gilded crystal bridge below, but before he could think about it, he suffered the same fate as Odin (Spopak).

Fortunately, at the last second, he pulled out Gáe Bolg and stuck it into the mountainside next to him to slow down.

However, in order to land safely, Li Ang was still going too fast.

Boom!

Li Ang crashed heavily onto the bridge, creating a deep crater.

The excruciating pain made Li Ang dizzy. He had lost count of how many times he had fallen today, but he was certain this would not be the last time.

Leaning on his red spear, Li Ang stood up unsteadily, the biting cold causing him to unconsciously hug his shoulders.

"Am I back in the central courtyard?"

Li Ang looked around, but all he could see was a thick fog.

[It's worse than that, host.]

"I agree with you."

As Li Ang walked to the bridge, he muttered to himself, because he saw what was suspending the crystal bridge beneath his feet—a single hair.

There is only one place in the Nine Realms where such a bizarre building exists—Helheim, the underworld of Norse mythology.

[Host, you really have a special connection with the underworlds of various mythologies! It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say you're the reincarnation of Conan. This system strongly suggests that once you return to the Qin Dynasty, you go to a temple to exorcise evil spirits.]

Li Ang scoffed, "Don't be ridiculous. How could the gods of Qin possibly suppress the evil spirits of Europe and enforce the law across borders?"

[Hmm... how about letting your son Zheng try to conquer all of Europe? That shouldn't count as crossing borders, right?]

"That makes sense. Ask him when you see him."

Li Ang joked with the system while scanning his surroundings.

He didn't see Skadi; ​​she wasn't beside him.

"Skadi!"

Li Ang shouted loudly with all his might.

"I'm here!"

The sound came from somewhere on the other side of the bridge.

"Stay where you are, I'll come find you!"

Li Ang followed the sound.

"Wife, where are you?"

"here."

Following the figure, Li Ang carefully crossed the misty bridge and crawled into the mountains beside it.

“This place is way too cold, even colder than the Central Courtyard of Everwinter,” Skadi complained. “Leon, I’m here!”

Her voice was closer than when he first heard it, which convinced Li Ang that he was on the right track.

Unfortunately, the thick fog prevented Li Ang from accurately judging the distance of the sound, and he didn't know exactly how far away Skadi was.

"The temperature in Helheim has never been high... Describe your surroundings."

"I agree with that. I would rather die than come to this place. There's a rock pressing down on me."

"Don't worry, I'll be there soon."

“My foot is stuck in a crevice too, and I can’t get it out,” Skadi replied.

Skadi cried out, her words filled with obvious fear, which made Leon's insides churn with unease.

We must find her as soon as possible!

Perhaps it was a stroke of luck, but Li Ang hadn't climbed far before he found a rather unusual pile of rubble.

After removing the topmost stone, Li Ang saw an arm clad in a purple veil.

"You found me."

Skadi visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

"of course."

Leon cleared away the large stones with his hands to allow Skadi to emerge. But instead of gently lifting his wife as he usually did, he watched as Skadi pulled her feet out of the crack in the rocks herself.

"call……"

Skadi let out a sigh of relief. She turned her head and saw Leon kneeling beside her, looking at her with a complicated expression.

"You're angry?"

"Skadi asked."

Every time Li Ang knelt down in front of her, it was a signal that they were about to have a formal conversation.

“A little,” Li Ang nodded in acknowledgment. “If it weren’t for your recklessness, we would be on the battlefield in Asgard right now.”

"..."

Skadi didn't know how to respond, and she looked at Li Ang somewhat at a loss.

Leon sighed and gently stroked Skadi's head.

"I'm glad you still love me, care about me, and cherish me. But I hope you can calm down and not put yourself in a dangerous situation."

Leon gently kissed Skadi's forehead.

"No matter how many times, I will come to save you. But I hope even more that you will not get hurt in the slightest."

"I don't want you to get hurt either."

Skadi gently touched Leon's abdomen, on the wound that had been pierced earlier.

Whether it's psychological or not, even though the wound has been treated and healed, Skadi always feels like she can feel the shape of the wound.

"Does it still hurt?"

"Skadi asked."

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

Li Ang smiled.

"Is it?"

Skadi's expression clearly showed disbelief.

"Let me tell you—"

dong dong dong.
