Ethereal World: Vicious Cannon Fodder's Immortality Road-Chapter 933: A Stunning Yet Fierce Dark Female Elf, Xing Lou
As the group of six people and three cute beasts were enjoying the scenery, they suddenly felt a strong gush of wind, followed by a fierce attack aimed at them.
They reacted, yet soon stood indifferently, each with different expressions. This type of attack could not harm them. They looked at Shenlian Yingyue with pampering and expectation.
Shenlian Yingyue’s figure moved swiftly. Her imposing pressure struck back at the source of the attack, while her slender hand lifted, summoning a glowing dark purple-red magical ring adorned with lotus patterns.
"Bang!!!" The two attacks clashed, dust and glowing light bursting forth like fireworks.
This change did not surprise the Dark Elves at all. On the contrary, they simply stopped their work and watched with amusement, as if this scene had occurred countless times before.
Shenlian Yingyue’s figure remained steady and unmoving, while the other slender and tall figure staggered several steps.
When the dust and light faded, everyone saw the figure of a poised, cold beauty wearing a shocked expression. Her long smoky silver hair flowed in waves down her back, and her pearl-white eyes gleamed like frosted gems.
Shenlian Yingyue and her companions fixed their gazes on the tall figure.
"You’re strong, but it isn’t enough to stop me." The dark female elf expressed her appreciation. Her smile was sincere, but soon her expression shifted into fierceness as she continued.
Then, she launched another attack as if Shenlian Yingyue were her true enemy.
"You too." Shenlian Yingyue responded in kind. Both slender figures fought fiercely, magical light sparking in the air.
The protective formation of Twilight Desert town automatically activated, shielding every Dark Elf household. Clearly, this was not the first time such a situation had occurred.
In the past, such incidents had happened countless times.
The dark female elf seemed proficient in wood power. Countless glowing green vines surged from all directions in an attempt to entangle Shenlian Yingyue.
Though swift, Shenlian Yingyue was soon bound by the green vines. Her slender wrists and ankles were imprisoned.
Just as the dark female elf was about to smile in delight at her victory, her pupils shrank. The slender figure who should have been helplessly restrained suddenly chuckled. In the next instant, all the vines snapped apart as countless purple lotuses bloomed, their sharp petals and leaves shredding the bindings.
The dark female elf no longer dared to underestimate her opponent and hurriedly prepared to strike back. In the end, Shenlian Yingyue triumphed, and the dark female elf spat out a mouthful of blood.
Though her internal organs were injured, she laughed loudly, seemingly unfazed by the pain.
"Good, very good. It’s been a long time since I’ve suffered. What’s your name, female human?" Her slender, phoenix-like pearl-white eyes locked on Shenlian Yingyue like a predator fixating on prey. Her heated gaze brimmed with anticipation, as though she wished to pierce through the mask and cloak Shenlian Yingyue wore.
Shenlian Yingyue shuddered beneath that gaze. She stepped back, while the men around her immediately stepped forward, blocking the dark female elf’s intense stare. Had the stunning beauty looked at them with such intensity, they might have flushed in excitement.
But Shenlian Yingyue was a woman. How could she endure such a gaze? Cough, even if the other party had no ambiguous thoughts about her, she still felt a little shy.
Shenlian Yinzhu, Zhiyi, Bing Xue, Xie Xie, Xiao Li, and Xiao Lan, except Xiao Yun and Xiong Zi Ying, all narrowed their eyes. They stood in front of Shenlian Yingyue, shielding her from the dark female elf’s gaze with clear dissatisfaction.
Even Bing Xue, who had only recently been with her, was no exception. His possessiveness was obvious.
Several of them, excluding her brother, her master, and her little beast companions, had already become her husbands. Thus, she was not surprised when they showed possessiveness toward her. But what about Xiao Li, Xiao Lan, and Xie Xie? They seemed a little jealous?
Shenlian Yingyue scratched her head in doubt, yet no one offered an explanation. Perhaps she was mistaken.
"Female human, your men and companions are quite possessive and protective of you." The dark female elf was stunned at first, then burst into loud laughter. Her heroic demeanor carried another kind of charm, like a mysterious beauty glowing beneath the moonlight.
Shenlian Yingyue’s lips twitched, not knowing how to react.
"Forget it. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Xing Lou." Xing Lou introduced herself. Her aura was imposing and fierce, like an ancient female general returning from the battlefield.
Shenlian Yingyue’s head popped out from behind Shenlian Yinzhu and the others. Then, she gently poked their backs, signaling them to move aside.
They looked at her helplessly but moved away as she wished. Their eyes never left her, while their spiritual senses spread over the entire Twilight Desert town to prevent any sneak attacks.
Xiong Zi Ying’s lips twitched. His disciple was being so heavily protected by her men that, as her master, he felt a little out of place.
"Nice to spar with you. My name is Huang Ying Yue." Shenlian Yingyue did not report her real surname. After all, the enemies were hidden in the dark, and she and her brother had to be cautious.
The surname Shenlian was not one just anyone could claim. Until she discovered who else had joined the Rakshasa force the unknown Empress had sent to eliminate her and her brother, she would not reveal it.
"Huang Ying Yue? I see. Which force are you from? You seem new to this Immortal Realm." Xing Lou raised her eyebrows. With a wave of her fingers, green light enveloped her, and her pale complexion quickly returned to normal. She was intrigued by these immortal beings.
Though each wore masks and cloaks to hide their features and aura, she could feel as if she were facing beings from powerful forces. This was the pressure of the strong. Even without Shenlian Yinzhu and the others releasing their cultivation or aura, she could sense it.
Xing Lou dared not probe further and instead focused on Shenlian Yingyue, who appeared to be the leader of the group. Strangely, this group seemed like newcomers here, yet she was unable to gauge their strength. She wondered if they were merely a group that had just ascended from the lower realm.
If a few used treasures to conceal their strength, she could understand. But was it mere coincidence that she could not perceive any of their powers? Either they were all stronger than her, or each possessed extraordinary treasures.
Either way, these individuals could not be underestimated. From her spar just now, Xing Lou knew this immortal woman had not even used her full strength.
Xing Lou’s eyes briefly turned solemn. But soon she relaxed. As long as they committed no evil against the Dark Elves, she felt reassured.
"Don’t misunderstand, I harbor no ill intentions." Afraid she had offended the other side, Xing Lou quickly explained. Her demeanor grew more reserved, no longer as bold as before.
"We’re just scatter cultivators from the mountains and rivers." Shenlian Yingyue tilted her head, not giving a real answer. She knew Xing Lou had no hidden intentions in asking. It was normal to inquire about origins.
But she did not plan to reveal anything about everyone’s true identities. She had not yet placed her trust in Xing Lou.
Xing Lou’s lips twitched. This woman truly had the audacity to open her eyes and spout nonsense. Which wanderers could possibly be this powerful? Without the backing of great forces, how could their strength be so unpredictable?
Scatter cultivators practiced cultivation on their own, without resources or backing, and were often weaker compared to disciples of sects or great clans.
Xing Lou was not annoyed, but her hands itched with the urge to fight again. Yet, after realizing she would be mercilessly beaten if she tried, she suppressed the impulse.
She was about to speak again but noticed many Dark Elves beginning to whisper and gossip. Some were curious about Shenlian Yingyue and her companions’ identities, while others marveled that Xing Lou had lost so miserably.
Xing Luo: "...."
She lost and felt embarrassed, but with her thick skin, she pretended not to notice their gossip.
