After some rest, ShenDai Ying finally recovered a bit and could join the fight! She knew that they couldn’t let the third apostle get away and since Lin Xiao’s magic failed and couldn’t use it to stop him, they could only rely on her now!
“Sister Ying, a-are you okay?”
“Hehe, don’t worry, I wasn’t hurt earlier, and with my speed, he can’t even touch my sleeves!”
“Hm, then why did it look like you were injured? I thought…”
“I don’t know either, my head suddenly started hurting when I approached him… but don’t worry, it won’t happen again!”
“Sister Ying, you have to be careful! He might have more black cores hidden and if you’re infected, we still don’t have the cure yet, so I’m afraid…”
“Hehe, Lin Xiao, don’t you believe in my strength?”
ShenDai Ying felt like she was being underestimated as she closed her eyes and regulated her breathing. When Lin Xiao saw that he noticed that her figure blurred and it felt like her presence was vanishing.
Lin Xiao understood that she was getting serious!
“Moonlight soul flower, first realm… flower burial!”
ShenDai Ying took a deep breath and tip-toed and it seemed like her body became as light as a flower petal.
“Moonlight soul flower, second realm… dead moon!”
She suddenly opened her eyes and what replaced her pupils was emptiness as her killing intent melded into the sword she was holding and became one.
“I’ll do whatever it takes to catch him!”
ShenDai Ying promised Lin Xiao and tapped her toes on the floor and disappeared.
Lin Xiao has seen her dead moon realm before, when she enters that state she was practically invincible. Although she could only maintain it for a few short minutes, she moved at terrifyingly inhuman speeds and she could easily finish off her enemy and then retreat.
Lin Xiao couldn’t say anything else and just silently stood there looking up and the black cloud and hoping nothing bad happened.
“Hm? Someone’s catching up?”
The third apostle knew that ShenDai Ying was catching up, but he wasn’t worried about his own safety. He was quite knowledgeable and had seen all kinds of assassins, but he’s very rarely seen one as beautiful as ShenDai Ying, so he paid extra attention to her and stayed vigilant. But unfortunately, he couldn’t tell where her techniques came from and didn’t know how strong she was, so he saw her as an assassin that was pretty and ran quickly but didn’t amount to much.
Although ShenDai Ying was underestimated, she doesn’t mind. As a killer, she would naturally be belittled, but her strength would naturally be proven when her sword pierces their chest.
“Strange, where did she go?”
The third apostle hid in the black cloud and desperately looked for ShenDai Ying while going higher. As if he could avoid her attack if he went high enough.
It was a good idea, but ShenDai Ying wouldn’t give him the chance to.
“Pretty girl, stop hiding, I can see you!” He finally saw where ShenDai Ying was!
There was a blurry black dot in the distance, but he knew that black dot would approach him in a blink of an eye, so he prepared his defenses to teach her a lesson.
“Cherry dance, blossom!”
Within a second, the black dot immediately approached with a speed that was hard to follow, with the sword leaving behind cherry blossoms.
“It’s a beautiful sword… but that’s all there is to it!”
The third apostle summoned two large arms and welcomed ShenDai Ying with them! If they hit, her delicate body would be smushed, but it wasn’t that easy to hit her!
“Shadow blink!”
ShenDai Ying bent her legs and lept off empty air and changed directions! Jumping in midair was extremely difficult, even the third apostle was sweating when he saw it.
“Shadow Kill, Heartbreaker!”
The third apostle smiled like he was expecting it and threw a black core and detonated it. The girl’s figure was enveloped by the mist and she couldn’t escape!
“Sister Ying!!”
Lin Xiao thought that she fell into the trap, but something wasn’t right. The figure in the mist suddenly vanished and she appeared behind the third apostle.
“What… that was an illusion? You tricked me!”
“So now you understand what shadow kill is, right?”
The third apostle tried using his two large arms to swat at ShenDai Ying, but there was no time, he could only barely get them up to protect his vitals, but ShenDai Ying was able to cut his legs. A large deep slash was left on his leg and almost split it into two.
The third apostle let out a bloodcurdling screech and opened his mouth to swallow the mist around him and it was like he ate some medicine, he was still in pain but it stopped the bleeding.
“That wasn’t fatal, huh… okay then, the next one will deal with you!”
“Annoying woman!”
He never expected the useless pretty vase to be so strong! With her strength, he couldn’t deal with her and if this kept going on, it would be the end for him!
“Wait…. ShenDai Ying, I remember…” The third apostle suddenly remembered something and started laughing!
“Hahaha! That’s right, this is fate! Lin Xiao, I might not be able to kill you, but there’s someone who can!”
“Where are you looking? … Your opponent is me!”
“Haha, you still want to kill me? Don’t you know you’re already in deep shit!?”
“Hm?”
“What a foolish woman! Look at yourself, don’t you know you were already infected? How naive, the only reason there were no festering wounds on you was because the bug was still dormant, but once I awaken it, you’re dead!”
“What?”
“Hmph, I originally wanted to keep you as a hidden chess piece for later, but I can’t wait… woman, go die along with your lover Lin Xiao!”
“Quiet, you’re the one who’s going to die!”
“Soul Snatcher!”
