Book 11: Chapter 43

"They can't be the king and queen from somewhere, right?" Satsuki guessed the identities of the two ghouls in front of her.

"It seems so. The other mummified corpses should be their guards or something." Kamiki just finished speaking when the conscious ghouls all knelt in front of them, confirming her statement.

"Ho~" The ghoul king wearing the crown opened his eyes, red light emanated from them. He was more than two meters tall, and the armour on his body was majestic. There were some runes on the sword, which were red light that flowed around the sword. It looked like the sword was shining.

The ghoul queen also opened her eyes that emitted blue light. The same blue rune was flowing around the bow and arrows as well.

"Howl!!!" When the ghoul king saw Lin Xiang and the fallen ghouls, he let out a roar that shook eardrums.

The kneeling ghouls stood up one after another with their weapons in hand. Like fearless warriors, they charged towards Lin Xiang and the others, not being afraid of death.

"Ho!" The ghoul queen also gave her command, and the archers gathered together to fire arrows one by one.

"Everyone, be careful." Lin Xiang picked up an old iron sword on the ground and made a fighting stance. The battle had begun again.

Obviously, Satsuki and the others knew how to keep a distance from the ghouls. Since the flying arrows would be blocked by Silent Water, they would not be distracted so easily. It would be a great disadvantage for the ghouls who could not use their spiritual power to fight them, because they could not get close. Even if they could get nearer, Kaoru and Lin Xiang would come forward to exterminate them.

The number of ghouls kept dwindling.

"Roar!!!" Seeing his subordinates being killed, the ghoul king rushed up with his sword in hand.

"Lightning!" The golden lightning struck him, and the ghoul king just paused, but quickly resumed action.

"Such thick skin," Reidy summoned several lightning again. That time, the number of falling lightning was bigger than the previous ones, with louder noise and vigorousness.

"Whoosh~" Out of the blue, a blue light cut through the air, slashing through the golden lightning snake and flying straight towards Reidy.

Reidy fixed her eyes to see that it was an arrow.

Silent Water released a water shield to block in front of Reidy, but as soon as the blue light on the arrow touched the water shield, the water shield turned into ice and was penetrated like cutting through tofu.

Reidy immediately released the electric wall to block whats in front of her, and the arrow hit it, fighting against the electric wall as if it had conscious of its own.

"Tsk!" Reidy gritted her teeth and supported the electric wall, a tiny drop of sweat dripping from her forehead. She continued to increase its strength, but to her surprise, the electric wall began to freeze, and it was broken through with a snap.

It froze my electricity? Reidy's eyes were filled with disbelief.

Turning sideways just in time, the arrow rubbed Reidy's arm and sank deeply into the container behind her.

Blood slowly flowed out, and a bloodstain appeared on Reidy's sleeve.

"Reidy! Are you alright?!" Silent Water did not expect that the arrow was so sharp.

"Im fine!" Reidy looked at the wound.

There was no freezing feeling. Was the arrows function to freeze elements? Reidy, who was standing on the container, looked condescendingly at the ghoul queen whose eyes glowed blue.

There seemed to be a strange smile on the face of the ghoul queen.

"Young Master, be careful!" Kaoru fended off the ghoul who was about to attack Lin Xiang from behind.

"Whoosh!" Two blue light beams interrupted Silent Water and Reidy's attacks with great precision.

"What?" While Silent Water and Reidy were surprised, the ghoul queen pulled out two arrows again, aiming at the space between Silent Water and Reidy before releasing the string of the bow.

As if having spiritual energy, the two arrows that cut through the air flew towards Silent Water and Reidy.

Reidy and Silent Water did not do anything to block and immediately dodged.

"Crack!" Nicia hit the big creature with another light whip. Black blood flowed from his face, and its chest was full of wounds. It looked very terrifying, as if it had been tortured, but it actually only got injuries on its skin and fur.

Nicia panted. That big man was simply the nemesis of angels, because light did not have much effect on it, and its defence was very strong.

If it was during the day and Nicia was at the peak of her energy, then she would definitely be able to handle that big one. However, she was powerless at that moment.

Every one of the demon race had its own weaknesses, and Nicia hoped to find them at that point, but the big creature seemed to be absolutely defensive, not making a move.

Suddenly, an abnormal feeling emerged in Nicia's heart. She turned around abruptly to see a ghoul coming at her with a knife.

Oh no!

Nicia had no time to defend or dodge.

A white laser of light appeared in time and hit the ghoul's body, but the laser was very weak, so it just made the ghoul shift its direction. Fortunately, the ghoul missed its target.

The big creature behind her was incoming with an axe, and Nicia turned sideways to dodge it. The sneak-attacking ghoul from just now was split in two by the axe.

Looking at pale-faced Angie in the distance, Nicia nodded to her, and soon fought the big creature again.

The sword in his hand reached its limit, because it could be seen that it was about to shatter. The ground suddenly sank, Lin Xiang fell, and a soft body grabbed him from behind, allowing him to stabilize his body.

"Bang!" A loud noise came from above his head, causing Lin Xiang's ears to ring in pain. Needless to say, it was caused by the ghoul king that was hitting the ground.

"Master! Are you okay?" Dusty's voice came from behind.

"Im fine, Dusty. You helped big time." Lin Xiang patted Dustys head, and Dusty's signature smirk immediately appeared on her face, "Tee hee, it's great to help Master."

At the same time, on the ground, when the ghoul king saw that Lin Xiang was gone, he raised his head to the sky and screamed in fury.

The ghoul queen looked at the floor with her blue light eyes, and drew an arrow

"Dusty, let's hurry up and get up there." Lin Xiang looked around.

"Don't worry, Master, it's very safe undergrou"

Boy, be careful! Freed yelled suddenly.

When Lin Xiang did not understand what was going on, "Whoosh!" A blue light penetrated the hard soil, wiped pass Lin Xiang's cheek and flew to his back.

Lin Xiang turned his head slowly, Dusty was still standing there. She stared blankly at the arrow that was half-immersed in her chest, and the bloodstain on her cloth was getting bigger. She took a few steps back, her mouth twitched, as if she wanted to call out to her master, but she collapsed weakly.

"Dusty!!!" Lin Xiang's pupils suddenly expanded, his hair turned black, and black matter began to invade the whites of his eyes
