Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me-Chapter 523 - 483: You Are Not Allowed to Hurt Him!_2

But just at that moment, a figure hurriedly flew towards this side, and then with a leap, plunged straight toward Lu Chuan.

"I won’t let you hurt him!"

Lu Chuan immediately opened his eyes, and then saw a delicate figure come into his view, it was Zhong Ling’er.

He was utterly stunned.

"Ling’er, you..."

With her back to Voracious Wolf and facing Lu Chuan, Zhong Ling’er had a smile on her face and said, "In my last life, I could die with you, and in this life, I can do the same!"

The Jade Pendant hanging around her neck was now emitting a dazzling light.

The force released by Voracious Wolf struck squarely on Zhong Ling’er’s back.

"No!!!" Lu Chuan’s eyes widened, and he let out a heart-wrenching scream.

Zhong Ling’er fell into Lu Chuan’s arms, vomited a mouthful of fresh blood, her whole being’s vitality weakened in an instant, and her complexion turned extremely pale.

Lu Chuan hastily embraced Zhong Ling’er, seeing that she was at death’s door, breathing her last, he became extremely anxious and said, "Didn’t I tell you to hide? Why did you come out to block this strike for me?"

Zhong Ling’er had a smile on her face and said, "Didn’t you say that in your last life, after you sacrificed yourself for the country, I took poison to join you in death? I thought, I must have been very, very sad at that time, so in this life I absolutely can’t let you die before me, so it won’t be my turn to feel sad anymore."

Lu Chuan looked at Zhong Ling’er with a pained expression, gently stroked her cheek, and said, "Silly girl, why did you have to do this?"

Voracious Wolf hadn’t expected that someone would suddenly rush out to take this fatal blow for Lu Chuan. He glanced at Zhong Ling’er and said coldly, "Indeed, why did you do this? Do you think by taking this hit for him, I will not kill him?"

Upon hearing this, Zhong Ling’er turned her head to look at Voracious Wolf, her gaze revealing a sharp resolve as she shouted, "I! Do not! Allow! You to hurt him!"

The Jade Pendant around her neck glowed intensely hot, and then unexpectedly levitated.

It was only then that Lu Chuan noticed the Jade Pendant; he remembered Zhong Tianyuan once said that Zhong Ling’er was a person of destiny, destined to experience seven life-and-death calamities, and whenever calamity came, her Birth Sign Jade Pendant would react.

Last time, Zhong Tianyuan had someone divine that Zhong Ling’er’s seventh calamity was in the Island Country, which was why he had Lu Chuan take Zhong Ling’er there.

That once, they encountered Grand Elder Huang Quan, and Lu Chuan had thought that Grand Elder Huang Quan was Zhong Ling’er’s seventh calamity.

According to the legend of a person of destiny, after experiencing seven life-and-death calamities, Zhong Ling’er would be able to ascend directly to immortality, but after they had escaped from Grand Elder Huang Quan’s grasp, Zhong Ling’er showed no changes, and the Jade Pendant had returned to its peaceful state. Lu Chuan even thought that the calamity would only truly be passed if they killed Grand Elder Huang Quan.

Now that the Jade Pendant was showing such a strong reaction at this moment, Lu Chuan realized that Zhong Ling’er’s seventh calamity might not be Grand Elder Huang Quan at all.

But if the seventh calamity wasn’t Grand Elder Huang Quan, then what was it?

Voracious Wolf also narrowed his eyes at the sight of the Jade Pendant, unsure of what was going on.

To prevent any accidents from occurring, he didn’t hesitate, once again gathering a force and hurling it toward both Zhong Ling’er and Lu Chuan.

Just as the force was about to strike Zhong Ling’er and Lu Chuan, Zhong Ling’er’s Birth Sign Jade Pendant suddenly released a protective light shield, enveloping the two of them.

The power from Voracious Wolf hit the light shield, and it absorbed the impact like hitting cotton, quickly disappearing without causing any harm.

"How is this possible!" Voracious Wolf exclaimed in shock, stunned by the scene before him.

Zhong Ling’er then looked at Voracious Wolf with some anger and stood up, taking to the sky, floating in mid-air.

"I told you not to harm him, why must you challenge my limits?"

Zhong Ling’er emitted an extraordinary and transcendent aura, like a fairy descending from the heavens, one that seemed sacred and not to be desecrated, yet she also radiated a commanding presence that made one want to surrender, far surpassing any Cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage.

Lu Chuan watched this scene, dumbfounded, thinking, ’Has Ling’er gone through her seventh life and death crisis and is about to ascend to immortality? Her aura is so powerful, what kind of realm must one be in to cause such a heart-throbbing feeling?’

But then again, what exactly was her seventh crisis, and how did she suddenly ascend to immortality out of the blue?

Voracious Wolf too watched Zhong Ling’er floating in the mid-air in disbelief, his mind buzzing.

He had been absolutely certain this girl was just a normal person, but how did she suddenly manifest such a terrifying presence, just because he attacked Lu Chuan?

If merely for that reason, a normal girl became a formidable Cultivator all at once, it would be too frightening!

Was it his own strength, or was this girl naturally powerful?

He looked at Zhong Ling’er and swallowed hard, a deep sense of apprehension rising in his heart. He was utterly convinced that if this girl decided to attack him, he wouldn’t even be able to withstand a single move.

Now he regretted ever agreeing to the Vice Sect Leader to capture Lu Chuan and bring him back. It had been bad enough that Lu Chuan’s countless hidden abilities cost the lives of Army Destroyer and Seven Kills, but now the girl accompanying Lu Chuan had also suddenly become a formidable force. How could anyone handle this!

After pondering for a moment, Voracious Wolf squeezed out a smile and said, "Miss, please calm your anger..."

Zhong Ling’er snorted coldly, clearly not interested in wasting time with this man.

With a raise of her hand and a pointed finger, a beam of light appeared, piercing straight through Voracious Wolf’s forehead.

Voracious Wolf didn’t even have time to react; the apologetic smile was still on his face, but now his life force was fading away. With that one gesture from Zhong Ling’er, not only had she killed his physical body, but she had also eradicated his Nascent Soul.

With such an understated strike, a Grade 7 Nascent Soul skillful expert had vanished from the world.

Lu Chuan watched the scene without speaking for a long time, knowing that no matter how fast he cultivated, he had ascended by facing all kinds of life and death tribulations, step by step. As for Zhong Ling’er, it seemed she did nothing and became a terrifying force just because someone attempted to kill him, and naturally, he felt somewhat uneasy about it!

However, this life and death crisis was now over. Lu Chuan, who had been reflecting that even True Dragon Destiny could not always be accompanied by good fortune, suddenly felt that the heavens were still looking after him, even in such a dire situation, saving him amidst danger.

After dealing with Voracious Wolf, Zhong Ling’er quickly retracted her aura and fell back into Lu Chuan’s arms, reverting to her previous frail appearance.

Lu Chuan, looking at Zhong Ling’er’s transformation, couldn’t help but frown and asked, "Weren’t you just about to ascend to immortality? Why have you become so weak again?"
