The Villain Doesn’t Want To Get Entangled With the Beautiful Girl After Rebirth

190: Confronting Cang Zhao

—

Hearing the intense sounds and the tumult of spiritual waves, Ling Meng’s heart tensed instinctively, wondering if her master had been exposed and troubled by the sorcerer, leading to a fight.

Or perhaps a beast had entered, and her master was battling it.

As a disciple, how could she wait calmly? Anxious, she hurried towards the source of the explosions.

Su Kexin had promised Lin Nuo to keep a close watch on Ling Meng, but suddenly, Ling Meng sprang up and ran off, beyond calling back. Su Kexin had no choice but to follow.

As a result, both ran into the sanctuary.

And there, they encountered Lin Nuo and the great sorcerer Cang Zhao.

Upon seeing the two girls, Lin Nuo thought:

Great timing, truly the protagonist’s fate. Wherever there’s trouble, there they are.

“Master!”

Ling Meng shouted, running anxiously towards Lin Nuo.

Lin Nuo pondered how to respond.

Should he say, “This place is dangerous, run away quickly”?

No, Ling Meng’s arrival was indeed timely. Let her restrain the sorcerer while he looked for an opportunity to kill him.

As for Su Kexin.

Should he tell her to run?

No way, let her join in, even as a human shield would be fine. With the protagonist’s aura, she couldn’t die. If she did, it would be a cause for universal celebration, a blessing indeed.

Lin Nuo considered whether he could coax Su Kexin into joining the battle. With her full sense of justice, like a righteous protagonist, perhaps some evil reasoning might stir her emotions to come and fight.

The chances of success weren’t high, but it was worth a try.

Lin Nuo said gravely:

“This sorcerer has betrayed the sanctuary, attempting to destroy the Three-Day Stone. I discovered it, and now he seeks to silence me by killing me.”

“The sorcerer senior betraying the sanctuary, how could this be… Perhaps there’s some misunderstanding…”

Su Kexin found it utterly unbelievable, after all, the sorcerer had been guarding the sanctuary for years, how could he possibly betray it?

Thinking that Wu Yingge was the hero who killed the “Poison Bee” assassin, ridding the people of evil, it seemed unlikely that he would falsely accuse the sorcerer.

So there must be some misunderstanding.

Listening to Lin Nuo’s words, recalling Lin Nuo’s recent attack, Cang Zhao seemed to understand something.

There were two possibilities:

One, that boy was sent by those witches, and now exposing him face to face would incite public outrage within the righteous faction.

Two, that boy was indeed from the righteous faction, and with extraordinary strength, he had somehow learned the witches’ secret arts on purpose, then pretended to be one of them, attacking him. Now that the attack had failed, his crimes were exposed, making his companions turn against him.

But no matter, seeing that the aura of these three was not strong, their strength must be far below his.

“Heh, if that’s the case, then none of you should think about escaping.”

Cang Zhao had no intention of hiding anything from Lin Nuo and the others; at this point, there was nothing to hide, and it was only right to eradicate them root and branch.

Cang Zhao raised the spirit wand in his hand, and as the bright spirit light of the wand shone, a solid barrier appeared around the sanctuary, encircling Lin Nuo and the others.

Originally, leaving a barrier was just to keep a way out, thinking that all three of them knew his conspiracy, he couldn’t let them leave, and had to deal with them on the spot.

Lin Nuo felt something was off.

This sorcerer’s response wasn’t right, shouldn’t it be something like “You’re reversing right and wrong, you’re slandering me”?

Is this what it feels like to reveal one’s identity and then silence others by killing them?

Lin Nuo didn’t know that the sorcerer’s circle was in chaos; he only knew his own situation was dire.

Seeing the solid barrier around him, there was no hope of escape.

So, was he to defeat the sorcerer?

Lin Nuo took advantage of the sorcerer’s casting moment to shoot several paralyzing soul needles, but the sorcerer had a hard spirit shield on the surface, which directly blocked them.

He’s learned well, directly activating a spirit shield for protection.

Bad, the hidden weapons are useless now.

Cang Zhao laughed loudly:

“Your petty skills, ineffective the first time and you think to use them a second? Today, you all shall be buried with the sanctuary.”

Cang Zhao’s spirit wand gathered intense spiritual power, and in a flash, a bolt of lightning shot out from the wand.

“Master, let your disciple handle this!”

Ling Meng was very eager, running directly in front of Lin Nuo, confronting Cang Zhao head-on with a move called the Chaotic Demon Energy Wave. However, the disparity in strength was too great, and she was struck back.

She was hit by the electric shock face-on.

From noble mtl dot come

The electric breath spread throughout her body, a surge of intense pain washed over her, but Ling Meng still clenched her teeth, not crying out.

Such minor pain, I shall not yield.

Sukexin watched as Lingmeng engaged in combat with the sorcerer, the situation looking dire. The barriers scattered around and the sorcerer’s words made Sukexin start to believe what Linnuo had said was true.

The sorcerer didn’t explain much, rather, he seemed to acknowledge and was eager to silence anyone by killing.

And this barrier, with her strength, she couldn’t break through at all.

No choice left, she couldn’t just stand by, she had to join in.

Sukexin then drew the silvery-white Phoenix Sword. Unlike Linnuo, who tossed the new sword under the bed, she cherished the Phoenix Sword as her best weapon, believing no other in the world could compare.

The sharp blade of Sukexin’s sword ignited with a vague white flame, slashing towards Cangzhao.

“You’re too weak, cultivator.”

Cangzhao’s spiritual shield blocked the blade, and in the next second, he channeled his spiritual power, the shield’s edge bursting with immense force, repelling Sukexin.

Sukexin crashed against the barrier, spitting out blood.

The force shook her, causing severe internal injuries.

Sukexin and Lingmeng both possessed indomitable wills; even facing a formidable enemy, they didn’t flinch, enduring the pain and continuing their assault on Cangzhao.

After two more exchanges, they still couldn’t injure Cangzhao; on the contrary, they suffered even more grievous wounds.

Linnuo assessed Cangzhao’s strength through the fierce battle, deducing the sorcerer to be at least of the eighth tier or higher, his cultivation completely overwhelming Sukexin and Lingmeng.

These two were like resilient cockroaches, never yielding no matter how strong the opponent, always charging forward, yet the result was the same, repeatedly crushed.

Linnuo surveyed the battlefield, pondering how to assassinate the sorcerer without getting too close, given the sorcerer’s surrounding energy was too intense.

Several attempts with hidden weapons failed, and he thought he had no choice but to use the Explosive Pill.

But that thing was extremely risky; although taking it would turn one into a real man, after the effects wore off, one would be utterly exhausted, unable to move.

Last time, Liushuqin was there to look after him, but could he count on Liushuqin now? She was out there fighting monsters, barely able to protect herself, surrounded by beasts. If he became weak, he’d be carried away by the beasts.

For a major villain to be taken by beasts, that would be a disgrace to the village.

Was there any other way? Perhaps try to break the barrier?

As Linnuo thought about breaking the barrier, Sukexin and Lingmeng had already been battered by Cangzhao.

“Not bad, lasting so long.”

Cangzhao launched his final attack, a powerful thunderstrike from the heavens.

The thunderstrike was about to hit them when, at the critical moment, they erupted with intense energy.

Linnuo saw this and thought, damn, this is serious.

Hurry and break the barrier, let me out, someone’s going to die here!
