Chapter 82: Counterattack
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The coordinates that Green River Sword Immortal sent was just tens of kilometers from where An Lin was.
However, the enemy was comprised of one Demon King and two Blood Kings.
With his strength, he could only defeat half a Demon King at most.
What would he do with the remaining two and a half? Leave them to Green River Sword Immortal?
An Lin thought about this and decided to observe for a while longer. He wanted to see how the members of the groupchat would respond.
However, he didn’t laze around either. As he observed, he also moved toward Green River Sword Immortal’s location so that if needed, he could act swiftly.
Green Bamboo: “Senior Green River, my rank is only of the Seventh Stage Dao Body, so I won’t be able to participate in a battle of this level. I can’t help even if I want to.”
Enlightened Dark Spirit: “Same here, my rank is merely Ninth Stage Dao Body and I can’t beat anyone. Senior Green River, good luck!”
Crimson Rainbow Sword Immortal: “Brother Green River, my sect is also guarding against attacks from the demon tribe. Being the sect leader, I can’t leave. Stand firm!”
The Savior: “Green River, I’m still in America, so I can’t come to rescue you, stand firm!”
Cloud Exploring Daoist: “I’m still holding a conference at Mount Longhu regarding how to suppress the Demon Clan, stand firm!”
Reading this, Green River Sword Immortal’s heart throbbed in pain. “A Demon King is chasing me right now! Instead of dealing with this existing one, you’re holding a conference regarding how to suppress them instead?!”
Cloud Exploring Daoist: “But the Demon Emperor isn’t there.”
Green River Sword Immortal: “…”
An Lin: “…”
He suddenly felt great pity for Green River Sword Immortal. It appeared as if the fellow cultivators of this groupchat really did plan to ‘say farewell to Green River Sword Immortal’.
Green River Sword Immortal felt like he had joined a groupchat of fake cultivators.
Red Fox Celestial Maiden: “Green River, send your real-time location, I’ll help you!”
An Lin was a bit dazed upon seeing this message. Red Fox Celestial Maiden had a rank of Spirit Nurturing Intermediate Stage and almost always remained silent in the groupchat.
He had heard about this person from Tian Lingling. Who would’ve thought that Red Fox Celestial Maiden would actively volunteer at this time?
Without saying anything else, Green River Sword Immortal sent through his real-time location.
Red Fox Celestial Maiden quickly replied, “Okay, wait for me! If we can counterattack successfully, the Blood King’s corpse is mine!”
Green River Sword Immortal: “No problem.”
After Red Fox Celestial Maiden appeared, the groupchat was once again drowned in a frenzy.
Calm Celestial Maiden: “A beauty saving the hero, that’s true love!”
Daoist Wooden Ox: “True love+1!”
Enlightened Lazurite: “True love+2!”
…
Tian Lingling: “May as well get married!”
Crack Shot Clairvoyant: “I’ve done some calculations and tomorrow is a lucky day.”
Dreamy Voice Fairy: “Our Huayin Sect is a good place to hold a wedding ceremony. The scenery is picturesque and there are flowers everywhere.”
The Savior: “A wedding? I also want to go. I’ll fly back from America right away!”
…
Just like this, the cultivators in the groupchat all started to pop up. And once again, the direction of the chat started to go awry.
Green River Sword Immortal: “…”
Red Fox Celestial Maiden: “…”
It was because there was a bunch of crazies in the groupchat that Red Fox Celestial Maiden didn’t want to talk. They would often go from a serious topic to something totally unrelated.
If she participated in too many of these chats, she would also become crazy!
The addition of Red Fox Celestial Maiden meant that the power difference between the two sides was reduced.
An Lin pondered for a short while. Thinking that he could perhaps also help in this battle, he sent a message in the groupchat.
Fake Daoist Priest Little An: “Green River Sword Immortal, I also happen to be nearby. I’ll also come and help!”
As soon as he said this, other cultivators in the chat started to reply.
Tian Lingling: “Fake Daoist Priest, I suggest that you quickly take back what you just said.”
Atomic Bomb Fairy: “Wow, what a dazzling third wheeler!”
Enlightened Lazurite: “Fellow cultivator An Lin, you need to learn how to help others achieve their goals…”
Crack Shot Clairvoyant: “Haha, Green River Sword Immortal probably wants to throttle Daoist An Lin to death!”
…
Looking at the comments of condemnation, An Lin wanted to cry.
What the f*ck is going on?
He only wanted to go and help. Why did he feel like a criminal now?!
At this moment, Green River Sword Immortal sent another message.
Green River Sword Immortal: “Daoist An Lin, don’t listen to these nutjobs. You’re fairly strong, so it’s fine for you to come over. However, in the coming battle, it’s best that you wait for Red Fox Celestial Maiden to arrive first. Then, you can join the battle when she arrives.”
Fake Daoist Priest Little An: “Got it!”
Being a powerful member of the Immortal Rankings Board, An Lin’s strength was tip-top amongst Tenth Stage Dao Body ranked cultivators.
With regards to battle ability alone, he was already on par with the weakest cultivators of the Spirit Nurturing Stage.
Thus, even if he couldn’t defeat the Demon King—who had a rank of the Spirit Nurturing Initial Stage—he wouldn’t be easily defeated himself either.
It was because of this fact that he had the confidence to offer assistance to Green River Sword Immortal.
…
Ten minutes later, An Lin had run up a large mountain.
Looking at the live location that Green River Sword Immortal had sent through WeChat, he could see that the distance between them had already shrunk to under ten kilometers.
In addition, Green River Sword Immortal was currently dashing toward his location.
Looking at Red Fox Celestial Maiden’s live location indicator, he could see that she was also flying toward his location from another direction.
No way! It can’t be so coincidental, right? They’re all converging toward my location?
An Lin’s expression darkened. He hurriedly suppressed his aura and found a large boulder to hide behind…
In the distant sky, a dark figure was gradually becoming larger.
He wore a fluttering black robe, and standing atop a flying sword, he streaked through the skies.
Though, there was one thing which ruined the entire image. A phone was grasped in his hands, and he was tapping away on it non-stop.
Green River Sword Immortal: “Red Fox Celestial Maiden, are you ready? Let’s counterattack and catch them off-guard once we meet up!”
Red Fox Celestial Maiden: “Got it!”
An Lin looked toward another direction in the sky. Red Fox Celestial Maiden should have been less than one kilometer away from him right now, but how come he still couldn’t see her?
Could it be… that she came by foot?!
An Lin suddenly realized something. That’s right, if she flies over then she’ll be detected by the Demon King and Blood Kings sooner. If that happens, then launching a surprise counterattack will be pointless.
Five extremely powerful auras started to slowly converge…
Soon after, An Lin saw a lithe and graceful figure speedily weaving through the thickets.
Her long, raven-black hair fluttered behind her and she held a crimson longbow in her hands. A red sash was tied around her waist and there were even three red tails behind her back, bouncing slightly as she ran.
An Lin was astonished upon seeing this figure. Could it be that Red Fox Celestial Maiden really is a fox?
Aren’t such beings classified as evil spirits? Why is she amongst the human cultivators?
He shook his head and cast aside these thoughts, his entire body tensing up.
Red Fox Celestial Maiden and Green River Sword Immortal’s paths were almost about to intersect.
At this moment, Green River Sword Immortal purposefully slowed down, allowing the enemies to further close in on him.
Whoosh!
The flying sword that Green River Sword Immortal was traveling on suddenly flew into his hands. A mighty aura erupted from his body and with a dazzling glow, he swung his sword backward.
Similar to a turbulent river suspended in mid-air, a mighty sword projection one hundred feet in size sliced toward the Demon King who was leading the enemies behind him.
Seeing that Green River Sword Immortal stopped fleeing and instead launched a counterattack, the Demon King of Arrogance was given a fright. He hastily activated a defensive spell and a bronze wall materialized before his body.
Boom!
A devastating power erupted from the sword projection and tore apart the bronze wall. The shockwaves crashed into the Demon King of Arrogance’s body and sent him flying back, blood trickling from his mouth.
Although the Demon King of Arrogance was injured, a sinister smile appeared on his face. “Since you want to fight, don’t even think about escaping anymore!”
Boom!
At this moment, two red figures also streaked over!
Red Fox Celestial Maiden stopped in her tracks and fully drew her bow.
Vital energy swarmed around her, and they brought with them boundless flames.
Afterward, the flames started gathering on the bowstring, eventually forming into a crimson arrow!
Whoosh!
Containing within it a fearsome might, the crimson arrow cut through the air and whistled toward the Demon King of Arrogance.
The Demon King of Arrogance had just been wounded by Green River Sword Immortal. So, by the time that he detected the fiery arrow flying toward him, it was already too late for him to react.
The arrow pierced through his body and bathed him in flames.
“Ah!”
The Demon King of Arrogance screamed in pain as he fell toward the ground.
“F*ck! It’s an ambush!”
The two bloody figures in the sky were furious. One of them streaked toward Green River Sword Immortal, whilst the other dashed at Red Fox Celestial Maiden.
A look of joy lit up on Red Fox Celestial Maiden’s pretty face. She turned toward the boulder which hid An Lin and pointed at the location where the Demon King of Arrogance had crashed down.
An Lin nodded confidently and signaled ‘ok’.
Just like that, Red Fox Celestial Maiden also started dashing toward the blood-red figure.
An Lin chuckled to himself and bolted toward where the Demon King of Arrogance had fallen.
