Chapter 2359: Chapter 2360: Take Action

"If you’re afraid, you’re afraid. Why all the nonsense?"

Zheng He tore away from them, showing no respect for the person in front of him. Even if they were both elders, so what? He wouldn’t show any mercy because of it.

"This isn’t about being afraid or not! Charging in like that—what else could it be but suicide? Do you want to put us all at risk?"

The elder spoke again, then glanced at Chen Lin, shouting angrily once more, "Keep your people in check; don’t let them cause trouble the moment we start."

"Cause trouble? Alright, then tell me, when Lu Kang’s true form merges, how many chances do we have of winning?" Without waiting for Lin Chen to speak, Zheng He cut in again, his attitude still fierce. Perhaps his formidable strength made the elder feel somewhat tense facing him.

Once Zheng He finished, the elder found himself momentarily at a loss for words, thinking things over but unable to figure it out; it was indeed as Zheng He said, Lu Kang wouldn’t let them go.

"But Sect Master Lu Qiming said earlier that it would take three to four years for Lu Kang’s strength to recover. During this time, we can quickly improve our own powers."

"Whether or not you can improve much in a few short years, right now Lu Kang is only holding back because his true form can’t act recklessly. But when that is completely restored, do you think he’ll just sit idly by and adhere to some bullshit about not taking action?!"

Zheng He couldn’t help cursing, seemingly exasperated by the elder’s naivety.

"Xiao Bai, let’s go!"

Watching their dispute, Lin Chen saw no point in it. He didn’t understand; the outcome was bound to be a life-and-death struggle, so why delay? It was better to seize the opportunity now and fight.

The chance to control your destiny is always in your own hands.

With a light call, Xiao Bai perched on Lin Chen’s shoulder suddenly transformed, growing rapidly to a height of two to three meters. A striking "king" character appeared on its forehead, and two pure white wings sprouted from its back.

Lin Chen stepped forward, leaping nimbly onto Xiao Bai’s back, then pointed his longsword at the silhouette under Yin Yue’s fangs.

Xiao Bai seemed to respond to Lin Chen’s command, its wings flapping behind it, and its body leapt upward.

As its wings flapped, they created a gust of wind that swept through, causing the robes of the figures below to flutter violently.

"This is..."

Chen Lin, who had previously participated in the siege of Xiao Bai, was startled at the sight of Xiao Bai’s transformation, finally understanding why Xiao Bai always showed hostility towards him; it was due to this very reason.

He chuckled wryly, then turned his attention back, noticing the disciples of the Demon Sect beginning to stir in response to Lin Chen’s actions.

Especially the figures shrouded in black robes, who murmured softly among themselves.

One voice might be quiet, but when combined, it grew louder. Among their murmurs, strange entities formed from evil qi gathered by their sides, slowly sprouting wings.

Unlike Xiao Bai’s wings, these wings were as black as ink.

With their voices incanting again, these entities ascended upwards, following Lin Chen’s trail at an incredible speed.

"Even a child has more courage than you lot!"

A loud voice rang out once more from Zheng He’s mouth; he seemed very agitated. He then quickly stepped onto the altar and leaped upwards, following those entities.

"I’ll lend a hand!"

His speed was astonishing, befitting a powerful spiritual fetus realm cultivator; within moments, he reached the last of the entities.

The longsword in his hand swung down like an iron hammer without any flashy moves or vibrant spiritual energy fluctuations. Zheng He acted as if performing the most ordinary action possible.

A strike landed, hitting the entity’s body, and its evil qi erupted with a sound like metal.

Tss.

The blow didn’t cause the entity any pain but instead made Zheng He’s hand tingle. He exclaimed in surprise, realizing he had underestimated this entity.

"This won’t work; it’s controlled by rituals. Don’t worry about me; focus on dealing with the foes below!"

Lin Chen shouted during mid-air, the command causing Zheng He to slap his forehead.

"Ah, right, I almost forgot, these things aren’t afraid of this type of attack."

Zheng He awoke to the realization; it wasn’t that he was unaware of the attack methods used by these Demon Sect members, but in such circumstances, his first instinct was to assist Lin Chen, which made him rush upward.

Though familiar with their attack techniques, it was his first encounter with entities summoned by the Demon Sect, resulting in the scene just now.

"Be careful yourself, then."

Zheng He shouted into the sky, then kicked the entity hard and flew downward.

Below, the conflict had already erupted; the two groups, previously still, now violently clashed due to Lin Chen’s actions.

"You again?!"

After dodging one of Liu Qinghan’s attacks, Lu Kang spotted Lin Chen approaching his true form from afar, growing increasingly resentful.

Ever since encountering Lin Chen, Lu Kang hadn’t had a moment of good fortune; it seemed as though all misfortunes were interconnected with Lin Chen.

The Saint Pearl was affected before, as was the later Underworld Artifact; now, as he’s trying to restore his true form, Lin Chen comes to disrupt once again!

How could he not despise him?

"Stop him for me!"

Lu Kang naturally had no chance to engage Lin Chen directly; though not at risk of being killed by Liu Qinghan, dealing with Lin Chen while fighting Liu Qinghan proved difficult.

So he shouted, and in response, the Demon Sect disciples below started moving, partially engaging with the Green Ripple Sect and some highly trained demonic cultivators leaped into the air.

Although their speed was exceedingly slow, they seemed unhurried, each face devoid of expression as they rushed upward.
