The Ice Sword Sister Gave Me

The next moment, a blue panel that only he could see appeared before him, clearly marking the location of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

"Qiu'er, follow me." Lin Xuan carefully glanced at the location of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast indicated by the system, then called out to Wang Qiu'er and seized her hand, racing toward their destination.

Before long, Lin Xuan brought Wang Qiu'er to their destination and concealed themselves amid the dense branches and leaves of a towering ancient tree.

Using the layers upon layers of leaves to hide themselves, Lin Xuan and Wang Qiu'er inspected the scene ahead.

Not far ahead, dozens of black-clad figures were besieging a battered giant dragon. Two of them possessed nine Soul Rings each; they were clearly two Titled Douluo-level powerhouses.

"Despicable, shameless humans! Even if I self-destruct, I will never let you have your way!" The giant dragon glared fiercely with her pale golden draconic eyes at the two Titled Douluo floating in the air before her, raised her head to the sky, and roared furiously.

"Give up resisting. You cannot escape." Of the two Titled Douluo, the man with several skulls behind his back laughed at that moment.

"System, analyze the identities of everyone ahead, especially those two Titled Douluo. Investigate them thoroughly." Lin Xuan looked at the two Titled Douluo ahead, finding them somewhat familiar, and immediately questioned the system in his mind.

"Reporting to the host, all personnel currently surrounding and suppressing the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast are members of the Holy Spirit Cult."

"Of the two Titled Douluo, one is Nangong Wan, the Holy Spirit Cult's Second Elder and Sky Centipede Douluo: a rank ninety-three Titled Douluo. His martial soul is the Sky Centipede, and he specializes in deadly poison. He is the leader of the Xi Shui Alliance. In the original work, he was once captured alive by Shrek. He is weak-willed."

The system slowly explained, "The other is the Holy Spirit Cult's Seventh Elder, Faceless Douluo: a rank ninety-one Titled Douluo. His martial soul is the Demon Maggot, and he specializes in mental attacks and deadly poison."

"Oh? So they are Sky Centipede Douluo and Faceless Douluo from the original work?" Lin Xuan looked at the scene ahead and nodded in understanding.

"System, what exactly is that giant dragon Nangong Wan and the others are attacking? What kind of Soul Beast is it?" Lin Xuan shifted his gaze to the dragon under siege by Nangong Wan and the others, continuing his inquiry.

"Reporting to the host, this giant dragon is called the Crimson Gold Mountain-Shaking Dragon. It is a true-dragon-class dragon Soul Beast unique to the Evil Demon Forest. This Soul Beast is known for its tremendous strength, and its rank is only one tier below that of the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear." The system's cold mechanical voice slowly rang out in Lin Xuan's mind.

"Crimson Gold Mountain-Shaking Dragon? It would make a rather suitable Soul Ring for Qiu'er. Heh heh heh." Staring at the Crimson Gold Mountain-Shaking Dragon being besieged ahead, Lin Xuan gave an evil smile. With a light flick of his finger against his storage ring, he took out three miniature ice-blue swords.

"The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it. This time, I will be that oriole." Lin Xuan lowered his head to look at the three miniature ice-blue swords in his palm, a confident smile quietly appearing on his face.

The moment Lin Xuan removed the three miniature ice-blue swords from his storage ring, the temperature around the tree he occupied dropped significantly.

With a slight thought, Lin Xuan hurriedly used Nihility Devouring Flame to suppress the temperature radiating from the three miniature ice swords. If they were discovered, things would go badly. He still wanted to play the role of the oriole.

"What is this? Such terrifyingly low temperatures." Although Lin Xuan had used Nihility Devouring Flame to suppress the temperature of the miniature ice swords, Wang Qiu'er could still sense the dreadful chill they emitted and could not help asking.

"Heh heh, of course these are something my sister gave me to save my life." Lin Xuan chuckled.

The sister Lin Xuan spoke of was naturally the Snow Empress.

When he had left the Extreme North to head to the Star Dou Great Forest in search of Wang Qiu'er, he had merely said that he was going out to train.

The Snow Empress and Ice Empress had been worried about him, so the two of them had specially condensed these three miniature ice swords for his protection.

Though the three ice swords looked tiny and delicate, each contained a full-power strike from both the Ice Empress and Snow Empress.

Their power was so terrifying that even if the Holy Spirit Cult's two Limit Douluo, Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao and Death God Douluo Ye Xishui, arrived in person, they would suffer grave injuries if they took them head-on!

With such a trump card, Lin Xuan's plan was now very clear. Once Nangong Wan and the others reduced the Crimson Gold Mountain-Shaking Dragon to near death, he would strike and reap the rewards, becoming the oriole behind the mantis.

After all, the moment he arrived, he had used his spiritual power to perfectly conceal his aura and had the system completely erase any traces of him.

He was certain that Nangong Wan and Faceless Douluo had not noticed him.

At this moment, all he needed to do was patiently wait for the right opportunity.

While Lin Xuan and Wang Qiu'er were talking, Nangong Wan's side had already launched another attack.

Although the Crimson Gold Mountain-Shaking Dragon was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, under the frenzied assault of Nangong Wan and Faceless Douluo, along with the supporting attacks from several seven-ring and eight-ring Holy Spirit Cult members in the rear, she had long since reached the end of her strength.

After struggling to hold on for a while, the Crimson Gold Mountain-Shaking Dragon finally collapsed limply to the ground from exhaustion. Scalding dragon blood gushed forth, dyeing a vast stretch of land a glaring crimson.

The Crimson Gold Mountain-Shaking Dragon's life aura grew increasingly weak. She had clearly suffered fatal injuries and was likely beyond saving.

"Damnable humans, I'll fight you to the death!" The Crimson Gold Mountain-Shaking Dragon's aura had weakened to its limit. Her enormous body lay powerless in a pool of blood as she growled at Nangong Wan and the others.

The Crimson Gold Mountain-Shaking Dragon herself knew very well that even if Nangong Wan and the others stopped now, there was no saving her. Even if she somehow survived, she would be left with severe lasting injuries and might even suffer a decline in cultivation.

Thus, the Crimson Gold Mountain-Shaking Dragon made the most decisive choice.

In an instant, the Crimson Gold Mountain-Shaking Dragon's pale golden vertical pupils were swallowed by crimson. Her massive body began to swell faintly, and violent Soul Power fluctuations surged madly from within her. Clearly, she was about to self-destruct!

Holy shit! You can't self-destruct now! If you self-destruct, what will happen to my wife's Soul Ring?! Lin Xuan, hidden amid the distant leaves, immediately realized that things had gone wrong.

Lin Xuan reacted swiftly. He grabbed one miniature ice sword, and Nihility Devouring Flame ignited at his fingertips, perfectly isolating the extreme chill it emitted to keep Wang Qiu'er's hand from being frostbitten.

Lin Xuan then quickly placed the ice sword into Wang Qiu'er's hand. Staring into her eyes, he instructed in a deep voice, "Qiu'er, now! Throw it at those people below! This sword contains my sister's full-power strike. It is enough to wipe them all out!"

"Alright!" Wang Qiu'er nodded and answered.
