Super SSS-Class Divine Artifact, F***ing Awesome!

With a horizontal slash from Bai Zhou's sword, the Dragon Scale Armor on his arm flashed with light.

That's right, Bai Zhou had activated the Dragon Scale Armor's skill at this moment.

Yeah, he had to save Lin Wei now, he absolutely couldn't hold back anymore!

He swung it out directly like that.

"Weng—"

"Roar—!"

The vibrating long sword seemed to let out a dragon's roar.

A sharp sword energy, visible to the naked eye, transformed into a long rainbow and surged directly towards the Spider Wolf rolling on the ground.

This was a 70% damage increase.

Combined with the Dragon Scale Armor, that made it a 240% Repentant Dragon!

Almost instantly, the sword energy struck the Spider Wolf.

"Ching ching ching ching ching!"

"Aow!!"

Even more piercing screams echoed.

The eight legs the Spider Wolf had been flailing wildly were cleanly severed, flying off in all directions.

The sword energy itself traveled over a hundred meters before gradually fading and disappearing.

But the terrifying wind still rustled the distant forest.

"Awooo~~"

Having lost its eight legs, the Spider Wolf lost all ability to jump around.

The screams from its mouth also sounded much weaker.

Bai Zhou didn't have time to be shocked by how powerful that sword strike was.

He tossed the Dragon Abyss in his hand aside in one motion.

His figure flickered, and he rushed to the Spider Wolf's mouth.

With its legs no longer obstructing him, Bai Zhou safely grabbed Lin Wei, who had transformed into the Dragon Gallant Silver Spear, once more.

It was then that Bai Zhou noticed blood continuously spraying from the Spider Wolf's throat.

However, the Dragon Gallant Silver Spear remained bright silver all over.

The filthy blood couldn't contaminate the Dragon Gallant Silver Spear in the slightest.

"As expected of a Super SSS-Class divine artifact!"

Bai Zhou's exclamation could have been praising Lin Wei, or Long Ying, or perhaps both women.

But Bai Zhou couldn't afford to dwell on it.

Gripping the spear with both hands, he forcefully pushed downwards.

"Pfft—!" The Dragon Gallant Silver Spear sank in further.

"Awooo!!"

The Spider Wolf let out one final, mournful cry.

Its two huge eyeballs stared, unblinking in death.

With a "Pfft!" sound, Bai Zhou pulled out the Dragon Gallant Silver Spear.

As the spearhead regained its freedom, it transformed into specks of white light, reforming into Lin Wei.

The moment Lin Wei landed, her body went limp and she collapsed.

Bai Zhou quickly caught Lin Wei in his arms.

At this moment, Lin Wei's small face was a little pale.

This was because after she had broken free from the Spirit Master's control just now.

The Dragon Gallant Silver Spear, which she had transformed into, had been continuously dealing damage to the enemy, constantly releasing energy.

This had left Lin Wei somewhat exhausted.

Fortunately, Bai Zhou's few slaps had woken Long Ying up.

Otherwise, Lin Wei would have truly fallen into the Spider Wolf's mouth from sheer exhaustion.

"Brother Bai Zhou, you... you came to save me..."

After saying this last sentence.

Lin Wei fainted in Bai Zhou's arms.

At that moment, the system's prompt sounded in Bai Zhou's mind:

"Ding! Detected that the host has successfully blocked part of the Protagonist's luck, gaining Destined Villain Value +100. Villain Roulette requires 600 more to activate!"

"Ding! Detected that a major character has suffered mental damage +555, gaining Destined Villain Value +50. Villain Roulette requires 550 more to activate!"

These two consecutive system notifications made Bai Zhou turn his head to look in the direction he had just come from.

That was the spot where he had left the Dragon Abyss Sword.

At this moment, Long Ying had already transformed into human form and was looking over, her hands slightly raised in a daze.

Seeing this, the corners of Bai Zhou's mouth curved slightly:

"Little brat, savor it yourself!"

Of course, she had to savor it.

Although this was Long Ying's first battle under the control of a Spirit Master, it completely exceeded her understanding of an E-Class Spirit Weapon.

"Is this... something I can do?"

Disbelief flashed in Long Ying's pupils.

She knew her brother and sister-in-law.

Although they both had C-Class talent and quality, they were already Level 4, and far more powerful than her, a mere E-Class Divine Weapon Maiden.

Yet, neither her brother nor her sister-in-law had managed to harm that Spider Wolf in the slightest.

How could she do it with just one sword...

And the power she felt within her now, how many times stronger was it than before? Hundreds, thousands, even tens of thousands of times?!

What was going on, this...

Just then, the "Contract" character on her palm, representing the temporary contract, began to fade and disappear as the battle ended and the Spirit Master Bai Zhou retrieved his Divine Weapon Maiden.

She had once again become an E-Class Level 0 Divine Weapon Maiden.

In that instant, the feeling of weakness washed over her, and she could barely stand.

"What's going on?!"

She couldn't help but exclaim.

"Ding! Detected that a major character has suffered mental damage +999, gaining Destined Villain Value +50. Villain Roulette requires 500 more to activate!"

Yeah, why was she back to this useless state?

Had that incredibly powerful feeling from just now vanished just like that?!

Suddenly...

Long Ying's gaze flickered.

Bai Zhou's words from earlier echoed in her ears:

"You think I'm an ordinary Spirit Master?"

"Could it be because of him?!" Long Ying's head snapped up, her gaze fixed on Bai Zhou in the distance.

Her eyes darted around, and who knew what thoughts were racing through her mind.

But at this moment, Bai Zhou had no intention of paying attention to her.

Instead, he simply checked Lin Wei's body.

Through the connection of the Life-and-Death Contract, Bai Zhou knew Lin Wei was not injured, just exhausted and would be fine after resting.

Thus, he slung Lin Wei over his shoulder.

Lin Wei, seemingly sensing this in her unconscious state, wrapped her arms around Bai Zhou's neck.

Combined with Lin Wei's extremely light weight, this allowed Bai Zhou to continue with what he needed to do next.

His gaze fell upon the corpse of the Spider Wolf, which had lost all eight of its legs!

He strode over quickly and pulled out a dagger.

With a "噗!" sound, he directly sliced open the Spider Wolf's throat.

Amidst the stench of blood and gore, he fumbled around and found a very hard object.

With a "poof!" sound, he pulled it out.

"It's this thing!"

An object, about the size of an egg but irregularly rhomboid, dark red, and even faintly shimmering with a dark luster.

Excitement gleamed in Bai Zhou's eyes:

"So Chu Yun ate this thing, huh?!"

That's right, he ate it!

Bai Zhou remembered the plot from the original novel clearly.

It said Chu Yun encountered a grave life-and-death crisis.

He was severely injured by a Spider Wolf.

In the end, with the guidance of the old man in his mind and Lin Wei's sudden burst of power, he used the terrain to kill the Spider Wolf.

However, Chu Yun, exhausted and heavily wounded, nearly passed out on the spot.

But before he lost consciousness, the old grandpa in his mind told Chu Yun to hold on.

Because he discovered something was wrong with the Spider Wolf.

A normal Spider Wolf wouldn't have such a large body size, nor would its aggression be so high.

So he had Chu Yun break open the Spider Wolf's throat and find this thing.

The old grandpa didn't know what the thing was, but he knew that the Spider Wolf must have mutated because of it.

He even told Chu Yun to try eating it.

Chu Yun made a huge decision and tilted his head back to swallow it.

He almost choked to death.

But after eating it, Chu Yun suddenly found his strength surging!

His level also increased rapidly, and eventually, even his injuries healed!

Therefore, this thing must be good stuff!

And this was Bai Zhou's most important objective for this trip!

Looking at the thing, Bai Zhou opened his mouth:

"Ah—"

He was about to imitate Chu Yun and swallow it in one gulp.

But the next second, he pinched his nose and quickly moved the thing away:

"What the hell is this smell? How could Chu Yun even stomach that?"

Bai Zhou's eyes twitched, and he remembered how Chu Yun almost choked to death in the original novel...

"Chu Yun was in a life-and-death crisis, on the verge of death, so he had no choice. But I'm not!"

"I'll wash it when I get back, dip it in cumin and chili powder, and then I still won't eat it!"

With that thought, Bai Zhou stored the strange object in his system space and turned towards the teleportation array.

Throughout this entire time, Bai Zhou didn't glance at Long Ying again.

He walked past her with Lin Wei on his back, not even saying a word.

However, just as Bai Zhou took a few steps, Long Ying's eyes flickered, and she gritted her teeth slightly before turning and following him.

Hearing footsteps behind him, a barely perceptible smile appeared on Bai Zhou's lips.
