Legends of Runeterra

Akali ran out of the temple and glanced back, and saw that the monster was indeed catching up with her.

With a slight smile on her face, she ran towards the stargazing meditation room.

The mountain gate has been blocked by a magic circle, and running out is a dead end.

In other places, most of the believers are alienated.

Therefore, Akali could only move towards the destination of Meimu and the others.

Although there was a subtle feeling of leading the enemy, a monster with similar strength to Akali could not pose any threat to Meimu and the others.

...

On Meimu and Tano's side, the two used secret methods to sense the road and moved forward without encountering any obstacles.

However, the smoother things went, the more serious their faces became.

As the initiator of this alienation, it is simply impossible for the other party to have no means to control the alienated followers.

But even so, the other party did not arrange for the alienated followers to block the road to consume the energy of the two.

It is very likely that he is a traitor. It is impossible that he has no idea about the strength of the "Shadow Fist".

The reason why he behaved so arrogantly and presumptuously was undoubtedly because he was very confident in his own strength.

The two walked forward in silence and soon arrived outside the stargazing meditation room.

The once simple and elegant buildings are now shrouded in black fog, giving people a strange and twisted feeling.

Most believers would probably vomit and faint on the spot if they saw this.

After looking at each other, the two of them formed seals with their hands, performed a series of protective and alert secret techniques, and then slowly walked forward.

They walked through the gate, passed the corridor, and arrived at the courtyard without being attacked.

If the black fog did not really exist, then this place would be exactly the same as when the two of them usually reported their missions.

"Shua~!"

The wooden door of the meditation room opened to the sides, revealing a dark scene inside where nothing could be seen.

After hesitating for a moment, the two men slowly walked into the door, weapons in hand.

The light dimmed and brightened, and Meimu and Tano found themselves in the meditation room.

Not far away, the long table that was originally located in the center and belonged to Master Ku Shuo of the "Eye of Twilight" had disappeared.

Instead, there was a throne made of dark, hard material and covered with hideous spikes.

Sitting on the seat was a figure with his upper body completely shrouded in black fog, with only his legs exposed.

Seeing that the legs were obviously not Ku Shuo's, Mei Mu and the others felt a little relieved.

After all, they hadn't said it explicitly in front of Akali before, but in their minds, they had not ruled out the possibility that Master Kushuo had done it.

But when the figure stood up, the two of them couldn't help showing surprise on their faces.

"Hello, you two, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"

"Quit!?"

"Well, it's me!"

There was a wanton smile on Jie's pale face, and the look in his eyes as he looked at Mei and Mu was filled with undisguised arrogance.

"You are the one who caused the black fog in the mountain gate! What exactly do you want to do? Where is Master Ku Shuo?"

Mei Mu tightly grasped the one-handed sickle made of New Moon steel, as if he was going to rush forward and chop off Jie's head in the next second.

"You have a lot of questions, but I am willing to answer them one by one."

Jie didn't care about Mei Mu's actions at all and snapped his fingers lightly.

“Gurgle~Gurgle~!”

A pool of dark and sticky shadow appeared on the ground, and Ku Shuo's pale and skinny body emerged from it.

"Master Kushuo!"

Seeing him speaking in pain with his eyes closed and without any sound, Meimu and Tano's faces changed drastically and they exclaimed in surprise.

"Don't shout, he's dead!"

"You master-killing beast!"

Before the words were still in the air, Meimu's sickle had already fallen on Jie.

"Shua~!"

The sound of air being torn was heard, and Meimu's angry blow went straight through Jie's body, leaving a dazzling knife shadow in the air.

"That was a close call. You almost ripped me open!"

Ring's figure appeared on the ferocious throne in the center of the room, as if he had never left.

After the first attack failed, Meimu, lacking intelligence on the enemy, did not pursue again.

Looking at Jie's figure, he was careful and cautious.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

"Me? Haha, it's very simple. I'm old and can only close the mountain and lock the gate when facing the invasion of Noxus.

For Ionia, I will break these old and corrupt doctrines and create a brand new sect!"

Jie spread his hands and spoke casually as if he was going to get a bowl of ramen.

What was said made Meimu and the others slightly stunned.

"So, would you two like to join the new sect?"

"Impossible! You're a monster who killed my teacher!"

Before Meimu's roar reached Jie's ears, her figure turned into an emerald green shadow and attacked the opponent at an astonishing speed.

Tano, who was not far away, clapped his hands on the ground at the same time, and with the interweaving of spiritual power, he quickly outlined a complex magic circle, which firmly imprisoned the ring.

"Haha, what a futile effort!"

Jie let out a mocking laugh, and his throne and body turned into a black mist and dissipated.

"Oh!"

The wooden floor was shattered by one foot, and the moment Mei Mu landed on the ground, her body quickly retreated.

"Puff puff!"

Several round shurikens pierced into the spot where she had just been.

Before Tano could come forward to support, the black fog surged violently, and six dark figures appeared in the blink of an eye.

Their eyes were bloodshot, and except for the weapons in their hands, everything else was exactly the same.

Behind them, Jie's figure appeared again.

"If you want to kill me, try to get past them first!"

Jie sat back with a disdainful smile on his face. A ferocious throne appeared behind him and he sat down steadily.

"Shh!"

The six shadow warriors moved and attacked the two together.

For a moment, there were flashes of swords and surging spiritual power.

At first, Meimu and Tano gained the upper hand with their martial arts and mysticism, and soon overwhelmed the six shadow warriors.

But the situation changed when the first defeated shadow warrior reappeared in the rolling black fog.

After realizing that Jie was planning to consume them, Mei and Mu changed their strategy and looked for a chance to retreat.

After all, facing the black fog that covered the entire mountain gate, the couple was not arrogant enough to solve it all.

Seeing this, Jie was not in a hurry at all. He supported his chin with his right fist, as if he was watching a drama.

However, the shadow warriors' offensive became more and more fierce, and relying on the tacit understanding of the six people, they were able to hold the two men back firmly.

...

Akali ran quickly on the road to the mountain gate, with the shadow leopard following closely behind.

With her familiarity with the terrain, Akali finally arrived outside the stargazing retreat.

Akali perked up when she heard the sounds of fighting from a distance.

There were sounds of fighting, so the situation wasn't too bad. At least Mei and Mu hadn't encountered any accidents.

Akali quickened her pace again, leaped up and directly stepped over the wall.

Akali jumped onto the wide corridor in a few steps and ran towards the meditation room.

Akali, who was running with her head down, did not notice that when she jumped over the wall, the Shadow Leopard did not catch up with her, but turned into a pool of black shadow and disappeared.
