"Hey! This oddity is being completely unreasonable. That boatman dragged me into the Soul River Water, so how can you blame me now? As far as factions go, you're all oddities..."
At that thought, Xu Le realized something was off again. Yan Luo and that old boatman had fought before. They did not seem to be on the same side.
Factions really were hard to pin down. Just like the humans in his previous life, people killed one another at a far more outrageous rate than wild beasts killed people.
"Your hand shouldn't have been there," Ai Li said.
Xu Le: ?
"How is that what you're focusing on? In all that panic, how could I possibly have been so precise?"
Seeing how serious Xu Le looked, Ai Li froze slightly. Had she really been overthinking it?
After their brief exchange, Yan Luo had climbed out of the river as well.
It gripped Luo Ning's mace, its eyes filled with ferocity as it stared at Xu Le.
"Die!"
Yan Luo suddenly accelerated. It was far too fast for Xu Le to escape with his physical capabilities. He could only use Elementalization on the spot to dodge its terrifying club.
Yan Luo swept its club at him three times without hitting him, making its expression turn slightly strange.
But it soon understood Xu Le's current state. Its fingers tightened slightly, and a layer of energy resembling red flames appeared on its body before spreading to its weapon.
Xu Le was startled. The sight of those red flames immediately gave him a bad feeling.
Especially when a weapon lit up with light or fire like that-nine times out of ten, it was an enchantment capable of striking elemental bodies.
He used Elementalization again, but he had been unable to dodge the attacks
