Handsome, Cool, and Invincible

"Spirit Tamer Barrier?!"

"Am I seeing this right? Isn't this an ability that Spirit Tamers can only learn after their spiritual power exceeds ten thousand?"

"Forget it, we still can't let our guard down. Attack together, break the barrier, and finish her off quickly!"

The three assassin Contract Spirits were all surprised that Mo Shiyu, a mere high school student, had spiritual power exceeding ten thousand and had learned the Spirit Tamer Barrier!

They stopped wasting words and began attacking Mo Shiyu's barrier.

The Witch rapidly chanted a spell. Magic circles lit up one after another, and all kinds of shockwaves smashed into the barrier.

The Crimson-Gold Dragonman opened its jaws and unleashed terrifying dragon breath.

The Multi-Armed War Machine transformed its limbs and arms into cannons, firing without pause.

Cracks began appearing across Mo Shiyu's barrier, visible to the naked eye. More and more spread across it as it neared collapse!

Watching the barrier gradually crack, Xiao Hei spun in frantic circles. "What do we do? What do we do? My attacks are weak—I'm just a little support! Waaah!"

Mo Shiyu felt her mind become unusually calm. She already had a spirit artifact ready in her hand for continued defense.

She could not die yet!

If she died, she would no longer be able to grow stronger together with Xia Yuan...

If she died, she would not be able to avenge her parents either...

After being targeted by assassination attempts again and again.

A surge of fury rose in Mo Shiyu's heart. Even a rabbit would bite when cornered!

Immediately, in her cool and captivating voice, she cursed furiously:

"You bastards!"

"Xia Yuan is my SSR! No one is taking him away from me!"

"If I find out who hired people to kill me, I'll kill his entire family, aaahhh!"

Even Xiao Hei jumped in fright, clutching her head with a despairing expression.

"It's over, it's over. Master has gone crazy!"

A familiar, teasing laugh rang out.

"Pfft... Hahaha!"

"I never thought Chubby Yu had such a fierce side. You've really opened my eyes!"

Xia Yuan descended from the sky, landing in front of her.

All three assassin Contract Spirits' attacks struck his body, but under the Limitless Technique, they seemed to hit an invisible curtain and scattered to either side.

Seeing that familiar, tall figure, Mo Shiyu's nose stung slightly, and tears welled up uncontrollably.

Her voice was thick with tears. "Xia Yuan... You finally came back!"

Just now, she had only shouted a few words to bolster her courage.

In reality, she was terrified of dying...

Xiao Hei was even more relieved. She let out a long breath, then planted her hands on her hips and declared boldly, "You're finished!"

For a moment, the Witch, Dragonman, and War Machine were all horrified. They had no idea why Xia Yuan had appeared here!

"How is that possible?"

"How did you get back? I already teleported you away!"

"Witch, could your teleportation have failed?!"

The three stared dumbfoundedly. Seeing that all their attacks had been blocked, they simply stopped attacking for now.

The Witch shouted in rebuttal:

"Impossible!"

"My teleportation magic could not have failed. He must have used some method!"

"But the teleportation destination is over a thousand kilometers from here, across several cities! How did he get back?!"

Xia Yuan exhaled white mist and panted heavily. He turned to look at the teary-eyed, aggrieved Mo Shiyu and smiled at her.

"Nicely done..."

"As expected of my master. You held on for so long!"

Only then did Mo Shiyu see clearly that Xia Yuan was already breathing hard from exhaustion. It was the first time she had ever seen him show fatigue.

He must have had a difficult journey getting back here.

"Xia Yuan, are you okay?"

Xia Yuan waved a hand. "What could happen to me? I just accidentally crashed into a few buildings, and stepped into a few potholes while trying to find your direction."

The Limitless Technique protected him, so he would not be injured.

The long-range teleportation derived from Cursed Technique: Blue required precise positioning.

However, his positioning near Chongyang City Station had not been accurate, so he adjusted it several times along the way and pushed Blue to its limit. That was why he was somewhat tired.

Listening to Xia Yuan and Mo Shiyu, the three assassin Contract Spirits were somewhat bewildered.

If you enjoy this book, remember to add it to your bookshelf so you do not lose it next time.

The Witch's tone was full of disbelief.

"You crashed through several buildings?"

"Did you fly all the way back or something?"

Even flying would have been far too fast!

It had not even been two minutes!

Xia Yuan's azure eyes brimmed with killing intent as he looked at them and slowly said:

"I don't explain things to dead people."

The Crimson-Gold Dragonman snorted coldly.

"Though I don't know how you got back, do you really think a level 45 like you can stop three high-level A Rank Contract Spirits?"

Mo Shiyu instinctively reached out and grabbed Xia Yuan's arm. "Are you going to use Domain Expansion?"

Xia Yuan glanced around. Because of the fierce battle here, most people did not dare get too close.

But there were still some reckless onlookers nearby, even holding up their phones to record what was happening.

"No. The range would be hard to control."

Xia Yuan clenched his fists until they cracked, flashing a wicked smile. "I'm just full of anger right now. They'll do nicely for letting it out."

The Multi-Armed War Machine retracted its four cannons and turned them back into iron fists. "Long-range attacks seem useless against him. Try close combat. End this quickly, or it'll be trouble once the city defense Contract Spirits arrive."

The Witch said, "Remember, don't kill him. That's the employer's requirement."

The moment she finished speaking, Xia Yuan teleported to her side. Grinning, he leaned close to her ear and said:

"Why do you think that employer had you transfer me away first?"

The Witch's pupils constricted. "Trap magic, activate! Flame Devourer!"

Xia Yuan lowered his azure gaze and saw a red magic circle light up beneath his feet.

A towering torrent of flames surged upward and swallowed him whole.

Watching Xia Yuan be consumed by the flames, the Witch smiled smugly.

"Kid, I know the Contract Spirit the employer wants must be of a high rank, but you're looking down on us A Rank Contract Spirits too much!"

Yet a slender, well-defined hand stretched from the flames, seized her by the throat, and lifted her into the air.

Then the Witch and the other two assassins witnessed a shocking sight!

Xia Yuan emerged from the blazing flames without a scratch. "Woman, you're the one who underestimated me!"

The Witch struggled violently as magic power swirled around her, forming circles of magic arrays.

"Chantless Magic!"

"Lightfall!"

Beams of white light blasted Xia Yuan's body, but they were like raindrops falling into the sea, unable to stir even a ripple.

Xia Yuan remained unmoved. He showed no mercy as he flung her away, then followed up with a Cursed Technique Reversal: Red.

The tremendous repulsive force crushed the Witch against a station pillar, bending her into a shrimp-like shape and blasting a deep crater into it!

She spat out a huge mouthful of blood, a gaping hole torn through her abdomen.

As a fragile mage-type, she could not endure such a blow.

Her body immediately began to dissipate!

The Crimson-Gold Dragonman and Multi-Armed War Machine stood frozen as they watched the horrifying scene!

Xia Yuan's attack had happened in the blink of an eye. They had not even had time to save her!

How could a level 45 possess such terrifying power?!

The level 81 A Rank Witch could not resist him at all. He had killed her as easily as crushing a chick?!

"It's like the Witch's attacks couldn't hit him at all!"

"Damn it, what kind of defensive skill does he have?"

The two assassin Contract Spirits had lost all their previous arrogance. Looking at the Witch's miserable death, they felt cold all over.

They could lose, and they could die.

But they could not die without even understanding why!

The A Rank Witch was indeed powerful. She still had many highly destructive spells she had not been able to use.

Unfortunately, against Xia Yuan, she had no chance to deal any damage at all.

Even if she had managed to cast them, they would only have looked dazzling. They still could not break through the Limitless Technique's defense.

Xia Yuan turned around, his cold azure gaze falling upon the remaining two.

"Who's next?"

Mo Shiyu and Xiao Hei both stared blankly.

Xia Yuan usually seemed lazy, carefree, and flippant, but once he got serious in battle, he was handsome, cool, and invincible!
