"No!!!"
Xiongji turned pale and screamed in despair.
All that could be seen was his younger brother, meeting Taigo's fist with a palm strike.
The former's hand seemed to be made of cardboard, instantly bending into eighteen pieces, turning into a bloody, twisted mess.
Xiong Ji felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
He knew that Tagore was more capable than his younger brother, but he didn't expect him to be this much more powerful.
They were utterly helpless against Tagore!
"ah!"
The bear let out a belated scream.
The bear-headed man fell backward onto the ground, writhing in pain.
"My hand, mine, my hand!"
The excessive pain distorted the bear's voice.
Taigo, however, looked completely unfazed and scratched his head. "So weak, just like the boss said, he's a piece of trash."
Xiong Ji gritted his teeth and ordered his team to carry Xiong Xiong away, angrily saying, "What do you mean by hitting him so hard?"
"What do you mean?"
Linda's expression remained calm: "He tried to murder me, and my teammate crippled one of his arms. Instead of thanking me, you dare to question me?"
More than a thousand eyes in the square can testify that the bear attacked him first.
Linda is not only innocent, but Xiong Xiong may also be imprisoned for openly attacking an imperial citizen.
"Tsk!"
Xiongji knew he was in the wrong, and that continuing the argument would only make things worse.
He clenched his fists tightly and said, "Then thank you, Linda, I'll remember that!"
"No need to thank me. If the older brother doesn't discipline his younger brother properly, then an outsider has to do it." Linda waved his hand. "Let's go back to White Dove City."
"Yes, boss!"
Taigo made a face at Xiongji, spread his battle aura wings, and flew away with Linda.
Xiongji was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes and passed out.
"Speaking of which, shouldn't we take down this bear roaring?"
After flying hundreds of miles out of Nanyan City, Taige couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Orcs are very vengeful, like me, I've held a grudge against you for three years. Bah, bah, bah, I'm a good orc, I don't hold grudges, but the bear-men are all bad orcs, they definitely hold grudges."
Linda stared intently at Tagore until she saw sweat beading on the tiger's forehead before looking away.
He replied, "There will be plenty of opportunities. In the 20th level of the Great Mystic Realm, we'll meet sooner or later."
The Great Rift is truly a lawless place.
Whether adventurers or demons, they will not easily use the ladybug to start a live broadcast. The ladybug's special magical fluctuations are like a beacon, constantly revealing their location.
While recording stones are a good way to preserve evidence, the prerequisite is that you can get back alive.
Furthermore, Linda didn't believe that Xionghou and his ilk posed any threat to her.
Today, he is no longer a newly promoted Moon Rank figure who is pursued for thousands of miles and dares not look back.
Six hours later.
Inside a room at a resort in Namyan City.
"My hand, my hand! Big brother, my hand is gone! Ahhh!"
A bear-headed man with a bandage wrapped around his right shoulder wailed in pain on a hospital bed.
His face was filled with despair as he muttered to himself, "How can I continue to take risks like this? How can I advance to the Light Rank? My adventuring career is over."
"No, you must trust the church pastors; they will definitely have a way to heal you!"
"Brother, I'll also search for the [Miracle] bestowed by the Goddess in the secret realm. As long as I can obtain the [Goddess's Tear of Life], a minor injury like a severed arm will be easily healed!"
Xiong Ji forced a smile: "Just focus on recovering. We'll wait for your brother to bring back good news."
"Really? Big brother, you can get your hands on that kind of treasure?" A glimmer of hope appeared in Xiong Xiong's eyes, and he excitedly got out of bed.
"Yes, if you can get it, don't give up."
Xiongji comforted him, closed the door, and went outside the manor.
"Ugh! You bastard, Linda!"
Xiongji's eyes were bloodshot as he grabbed his hair and roared.
How could a mere Sunrise-level guild leader like him possibly obtain such a treasure as the "Goddess's Tear of Life"?
What he said to Xiong Xiong was just a delaying tactic to prevent his brother from doing anything rash.
Xiongji kicked a lounge chair by the pool and slapped the terrified bunny girl twice.
He was still furious, his chest heaving, his eyes flashing with a cold, predatory light.
"How dare you take my only brother, Linda! I'll make you wish you were dead!"
Xiongji cursed wildly in his heart.
"Little Bear, are you interested in discussing a deal?"
A soft female voice suddenly sounded from behind.
"who!?"
Xiongji's heart skipped a beat, and he turned around warily.
But standing before him was a woman shrouded in a black robe.
The woman wore a pure white mask with a short horn resembling a demon's on the right side of her forehead, and the brim of her hood was adorned with luxurious gold thread.
Xiongji's gaze shifted downwards, landing on the black dragon emblem on the woman's chest. He immediately tensed, unable to breathe: "Dragon... Dragon's Tomb? What do you want with me?"
The empire has extremely low tolerance for demons. If word gets out that he met with people from the Dragon's Rest Tomb in private, black-armored knights will appear the next day.
And this woman in the black robe is none other than the Witch of a Hundred Faces.
"Your Bear Roar Adventurer Group has no chance of defeating the Phoenix Tail Flower. But I can. How about we make a deal?"
Bai Mian laughed.
"A deal? What deal?" Xiong Ji swallowed hard.
"It's very simple. If the Phoenix Tail Flower enters the 20th floor, use this flute to send a message and tell me their location. At that time, the top Moon-rank demons will take action."
"Top-tier? How top-tier? Do you even know that bastard Taige? She used to be the leader of the Dark Flame Adventurer Guild, ranked 105th on the monthly list." Xiongji said hatefully, "It was that bastard who crippled my brother. Without her protection, what is Linda?"
