Chapter 82, Chapter 18: The Magical Maid
"???"
Before Liu Ye could react, Yu Wanwan had already started attacking again.
This time, her attack was even faster and more powerful than before.
The emerald green whip was wielded with great force in her hands.
Wherever the whip passed, skulls shattered into powder, shadows were violently churned and rolled, and even the air crackled and popped.
Every time the shadowy figures managed to regroup, they were scattered again by a whip.
With each dispersal and reunion, the viscous, ominous aura dissipates somewhat.
Those skulls, shattered into pieces, were scattered by the wind and never had the chance to be pieced back together.
I'll really tear it to shreds and show it to her.
There was no elegance, composure, or beauty, only endless brutality.
Ryūya's expression gradually contorted.
"That's impossible!"
Isn't she the most fragile and useless wood-type mage?
How could they possibly have such formidable fighting power!
No matter how unwilling they were to accept it, the skeletons and shadows still died one after another under the attack of the long whip.
Before they could do anything to remedy the situation, the ferocious figure suddenly stopped moving.
She braced herself on her knees, breathing rapidly.
The long whip, which had been so brutal just moments before, now hung limply at his feet.
Anyone could see that she was exhausted.
Yu Wanwan simply plopped down on the ground, looked up at the dense army of skeletons and shadows, and sighed.
Sure enough, physical activity like fighting wasn't suitable for her.
I'm so tired.
Ryuya didn't understand why she suddenly stopped and gave up resisting, but that didn't stop her from seizing the opportunity and subconsciously commanding the remaining shadows and skeletons on the field to pounce on her, who was already exhausted.
"You bitch! Die!"
Yu Wanwan only lifted her eyelids to glance at it, then lowered her eyes again, neither dodging nor avoiding it, as if she had given up struggling.
In the blink of an eye, her figure was devoured by the skeletons and shadows, and not even a corner of her clothes could be seen.
The knights and mages on the city wall gasped and looked eagerly at Xu Qingzhou.
"Priest! Are we really not going to help?"
Xu Qingzhou pressed his hands firmly against the city wall, his eyes fixed on the ground.
He tried to steady his breathing and shook his head slightly.
"You have to trust her."
It's telling these people, and it's also telling myself.
The symbiotic mark on his wrist had not yet triggered any alarms, and he felt no discomfort whatsoever.
This means she is still safe.
She was far more powerful than he thought.
He didn't understand why she gave up resisting and let the skeletons and shadows get closer.
She didn't speak. If they went down rashly, it might disrupt her original plans and cause her trouble.
But his palms were already covered in sweat.
Liu Ye's lips curled up, and she didn't look in that direction again.
A pair of eyes gazed intently at the familiar figure on the city wall.
"Priest, Liuguang has come to fetch you!"
Ryuya stepped forward, and the next instant, a violent explosion rang out.
Before Ryūya and the dark mages could react, they were blown away by an invisible shockwave.
The people on the city wall stared wide-eyed.
Leaves and petals drifted in from all directions, transforming into a magnificent rain of flowers that danced towards the woman sitting on the ground.
The skeletons and shadows touched by the petals and green leaves vanished instantly, leaving not a trace.
Petals swirled around her, and green leaves shimmered like jade, gently caressing the wounds torn open by the skeleton and the shadows.
The wounds healed at a visible speed where they were touched, the bloodstains disappeared, and the blood-stained clothes were restored to their pristine white robes.
Both the people on the city wall and the dark mage who was thrown away stood there speechless for a long time.
Someone unconsciously reached out to catch the falling petals.
The petals fell into his palm, bringing an intense warmth. His wounds healed, the fatigue from the long battle vanished, and he became energetic again.
The man became even more stunned, his mouth agape, unable to utter a single word.
Xu Qingzhou's gaze was fixed on the figure surrounded by a rain of petals, and his heart skipped a beat.
It was throbbing rapidly, one beat after another.
His eyes gradually filled with infatuation, and deep within them, a sense of possessiveness and madness began to emerge.
If he could see his own eyes, he would realize that the way he was looking at her now was no different from how Liuguang looked at the priest.
Yu Wanwan supported herself on the ground and slowly stood up.
She was surrounded by a rich vitality, as if she had merged with the fluttering petals and green leaves, like a deity.
The gentleness in her eyes seemed to drip with tenderness, but upon closer inspection, an endless indifference was hidden beneath that gentleness.
It was a kind of indifference, like looking at ants.
With each step Yu Wanwan took forward, countless tender shoots broke through the soil on the battlefield covered by black mist, growing and spreading at an astonishing speed.
When she finally arrived in front of Liuye, the entire battlefield was covered with flowers and green grass, exuding a sweet fragrance of herbs and trees, dispelling the ominous stench.
Even the dead bodies were covered with delicate, beautiful flowers.
Ryūya's pupils dilated violently, filled with disbelief and terror, as he retreated backward.
“You…you’re not Vil…”
Yu Wanwan sighed gently.
"You finally figured it out, that's really something."
Xu Qingzhou at least remembered to maintain the persona of a priestess, but she was too lazy to maintain any persona and had never pretended.
As it turned out, she was the one who noticed Xu Qingzhou's odd behavior first, and only now realized that she wasn't the original either.
I don't know what to say about her.
Ryūya was on the verge of a breakdown.
"Who are you?! Where have you hidden my priest?!"
Even at this point, she wasn't worried about her own safety, but was still concerned about the priest.
Yu Wanwan was utterly envious of her level of romantic obsession.
“I told you long ago, he went to atone for your sins.”
"I don't believe it! This is impossible!"
Yu Wanwan shrugged indifferently.
Believe it or not!
"Alright, enough chit-chat, let's finish this quickly and go home for dinner!"
She couldn't let Ryūya really develop into an evil god.
With such powerful abilities and a love-crazed mind that she's already gone mad, if she were to become an evil god, it would cause her a lot of trouble!
Liu Ye finally realized that he was in imminent danger, and his expression changed drastically.
Yu Wanwan reached out, and the petals and green leaves spun rapidly toward Liu Ye along her hand.
In a flash, a giant hand tore through space, swiftly grabbed Liu Ye by the collar, and pulled her into the crevice in a flash.
"Grass!"
By the time the flowers and leaves had swept over, the gaps had already closed again.
Yu Wanwan gritted her teeth.
"Erebus!"
As if hearing her gritted teeth and desperate cries, Erebus's polite voice rang out in the air.
"Your Excellency, I am very sorry. I have no intention of opposing you, but this little saintess is still useful to me. My apologies!"
Yu Wanwan gave him the middle finger, clearly furious.
"If you're so capable, then come at me head-on!"
"Oh! By the God of Darkness, I am no match for you."
"..."
After that, no matter what Yu Wanwan said, Erebus remained silent.
He knew very well that if he sent another telepathic message, she would find his location.
Enraged, Yu Wanwan stood with her hands on her hips amidst a dreamlike rain of petals, and cursed the entire Erebus family.
Xu Qingzhou came to Yu Wanwan's side, looked at the furious Yu Wanwan, suppressed a laugh, and patted her head.
"Okay, don't be angry anymore. Next time, I will be more prepared and won't let him get away again."
His tone was gentle, with a hint of coaxing and indulgence.
Yu Wanwan slapped his hand away and rolled her eyes at him.
"You? Give me a break!"
"..."
Thinking about the fighting prowess she had just displayed, Xu Qingzhou silently shut himself in.
He looked up at the rain of petals falling from the sky.
"What's this?"
Yu Wanwan was in a bad mood and didn't bother to explain, pointing at the flower petals.
"flower!"
"..."
He then pointed to the emerald green leaves.
"leaf!"
"..."
How could he not know that these are flowers and leaves?!
Is this what he's asking?
But after looking at her expression, he still didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Afraid of being beaten.
"High Priest, Lady Violet, what should we do with these dark mages?"
Xu Qingzhou wasn't entirely sure either.
If it weren't for that conversation on the city wall, he would have ordered the killing of these dark mages to prevent future troubles.
But after that conversation, he knew very well that these dark mages could not be killed.
Killing them could cause the world to become unbalanced, and that would be a huge problem.
Xu Qingzhou couldn't help but look at Yu Wanwan.
Yu Wanwan snorted and turned to leave.
"Why are you looking at me? You're the priest, figure it out yourself!"
The knights and mages all lowered their heads, not daring to utter a sound.
Having witnessed that amazing and shocking scene, even if she were to pin Xu Qingzhou to the ground and beat him now, they wouldn't say a word.
In this magical world, the strong ultimately reign supreme.
Yu Wanwan's formidable combat prowess and pure life force required no further explanation; they were already deeply impressed and respected by her.
Xu Qingzhou touched the tip of his nose and pondered for a few seconds.
"Put them in the temple dungeon and make Erebus compensate for the losses and repair costs on the continent during this period."
Knights and mages: "???"
Is the priest serious?
However, considering the conversation between the high priest and Lady Vera on the city wall earlier, these people felt...
Your Highness, that's a brilliant suggestion!
The dark mages, who were already stunned by Yu Wanwan, were speechless.
Oh no, could it be that they didn't die at the hands of that terrifying woman, but instead got hacked to pieces by Lord Erebus?
The war on the Eastern front has been quelled, but it continues in other areas.
Yu Wanwan was in a bad mood, so she started taking Xu Qingzhou all over the continent.
She didn't mince words; upon arriving at a battlefield, she immediately began self-harm, sacrificing her health to activate her ultimate skill.
With her ruthless addition, the dark mages were driven to flee in terror.
The other knights and mages had no room to maneuver.
Gradually, Xu Qingzhou also figured out the pattern.
She probably has a built-in berserk buff when her health is low; the lower her health, the higher her combat value.
Whenever she can't win a fight, or when she's too lazy to keep up, she'll just self-harm and sell her blood to activate a buff.
It's practically a bug!
As for the cost...
Xu Qingzhou hasn't figured it out yet. He only knows that every time she finishes a fight, she grabs him and kisses him, completely disregarding whether the occasion is appropriate or not.
Now everyone across the mainland knows they're a couple.
In the past, when he appeared, these people looked at him with respect and admiration, but now...
Whenever he appears, he has to endure their ambiguous gazes, mixed with some grief and regret.
"..."
It was a feeling of grief and regret: that the holy priest was actually the one below.
Although he would love for everyone to know that she was his, it was just... a real pain in the ass.
Under the watchful eyes of a crowd, watching that figure charging into the battlefield amidst a shower of petals, Xu Qingzhou sighed.
Well, whether she was marked by him or he was marked by her, the result was what he wanted.
What can you do if you're not as strong as your opponent?
Keep trying!
One day, he will definitely be able to launch a counterattack!
