Chapter 57: Chapter 57
"It seems your companions aren't very reliable, are they?"
After falling into an eerie silence for a moment, Meng Xi's mocking words drifted into Elbino's ears,
Upon hearing this,
Elbino clenched his fists in unparalleled anger, his murderous aura rising higher and higher. The once composed him now had a distorted, comical, and even somewhat hideous face due to anger and astonishment.
"You, what did you say..."
However, after glancing at the two comically dead bodies, Elbino begrudgingly discovered that he couldn't really refute her?! His companions had absolutely nothing to do with being reliable!
They were clearly Rank 6 masters!
And outstanding members of the Divine Punishment sect
Dying on the spot by falling straight from the sky?! Were you trying to make your opponents laugh to death?! Or infuriate your teammates?!
I must be out of my mind to have waited for you guys!!
You've utterly disgraced our Divine sect!
Elbino's heart was almost unbearable as he furiously cursed the two dead teammates! If Meng Xi weren't watching from a short distance, he might have already rushed up and dismembered those two foolish teammates.
"Hmph,"
Looking at the two seemingly frantic and frustrated Divine Punishment sect members in the distance, Meng Xi couldn't help but let out a cold snort, casting a disdainful glance at Elbino and Zack. At the same time, Meng Xi thoughtfully looked at the two black-robed men who had just appeared and died,
The silver-haired girl's heart was somewhat complicated,
On one hand, Meng Xi felt a sense of relief.
After all, if she had to face four Rank 6 masters on her own, her odds of winning would undoubtedly be slim.
The inexplicable deaths of the two Rank 6 experts allowed Meng Xi to breathe a sigh of relief.
On the other hand, the unexpected deaths of these two powerhouses also left Meng Xi puzzled.
Judging by the momentum of the two charging in,
Their strength must have been higher than the two facing her. Although there was a possibility of accidents when dispelling flight magic and falling from the sky, the probability for two masters, especially at their level, was very low! Moreover, they both had accidents at the same time.
This was just too unbelievable, wasn't it?
With that thought,
A hint of doubt appeared in Meng Xi's light purple eyes. Just then, the silver-haired girl's brows furrowed slightly,
'??? '
'Huh? What's that? Butterflies?'
At this moment, there were two or three butterflies dancing around the two corpses. The dead men's burst blood and scattered brains, combined with the blood-red patterns on the butterflies, made for an indescribable and eerie scene...
more importantly,
Butterflies?
In the freezing cold North, there were butterflies? And they were appearing around the corpses; what was going on? It felt a little off,
No!
No, wait! Now's not the time to think about this!
Temporarily hiding her doubts, Meng Xi once again focused her attention on the two black-robed men who were currently in a rage because of their unreliable teammates. Now was undoubtedly the perfect time to make a move.
And so,
Taking advantage of Elbino and the others still paying some attention to their dead companions,
Meng Xi suddenly gripped her silver longsword tightly!
A fierce murderous intent burst forth in her light purple eyes, and the silvery-white divine energy was released without reservation!
The girl transformed into a silver-white meteor, charging towards Elbino with the force of a thunderbolt. The silver sword tip aimed directly at his brow...
As Meng Xi made her move,
The blood-colored butterflies hovering around the corpses dissolved into crimson particles and vanished into the snowy wind after a wave of energy fluctuations...

On the other side,
Yu Mo, who was being pulled away by two Asumos Church knights, glanced back playfully at the battlefield between Meng Xi and the Divine Punishment sect members. Relying on her sharp perception, Yu Mo could clearly sense the situation of their battle.
Naturally,
When the two black-robed men arrived as reinforcements from a distance, Yu Mo could also feel their presence.
As for the Divine Punishment sect members,
These guys clearly harbored a great hostility towards her heroine. Originally, Yu Mo wanted to take matters into her own hands and eliminate them secretly to avoid any interference. However, upon second thought, why not put them to good use?! Offer them up as experience points for the protagonist.
Moreover, by challenging those of a higher rank, she could also figure out where the limits of the heroine lay.
'Hehe,'
'Killing two birds with one stone,'
'I'm truly amazing~'
And so, when Yu Mo noticed Elbino and the others attempting an ambush, she chose to stay quiet and enjoy the show. Considering that two against one was already enough, she could only regretfully send the other two Divine Punishment Church members off with a boxed lunch.
To make their demise look somewhat 'reasonable',
Yu Mo specially dispatched a few blood butterflies to numb their nerves and consciousness, causing their bodies to fall into an uncontrollable chaotic state. In the end, they were unable to make any adjustments to their position and fell straight to the ground.
It looked like a complete accident!
Seamless, indeed~
Yu Mo chuckled smugly in her heart, then looked at Meng Xi's location with her deep blue eyes, filled with a hidden meaning,
'So, my dear protagonist, the great Chosen One destined to save the world, let me see just how capable you are~'
Oh,
By the way,
In such a battle, it's best not to have others interfere.
With this in mind, Yu Mo glanced at the dozens of abyssal demons rushing towards the back of the Galros Fortress not far away. At the same time, a hint of crimson light rippled through her eyes,
'You all, guard nearby, and don't let anyone who might cause trouble approach.'
As Yu Mo's will was conveyed,
The abyssal demons, which were prepared to wreak havoc, suddenly halted their steps and obediently scattered, beginning to encircle Meng Xi's battlefield! To avoid alerting Meng Xi and the Divine Punishment sect members, the demons even consciously maintained a certain distance.
'With this, it should be foolproof.'
Yu Mo smiled slightly.
Just then, an ill-timed roar of anger suddenly erupted like a thunderclap in Yu Mo's ear, instantly wiping the smile off her face,
"Damn it, what are you looking at?! Hurry up and move!! You dawdling, stinky girl!!"
Yu Mo: ...
Hearing this, Yu Mo indifferently turned her head to look at the Asumos Church knight behind her, who was already enveloped by fear. The next moment, she raised her eyebrows slightly.
Oh,
Speaking of which, I almost forgot about you,
The protagonist's 'good teammates'~
As Yu Mo's eyes met the knight's black pupils, a touch of coldness surfaced in her gaze. With Meng Xi not around, there seemed to be no need for her to pretend to be a weak girl, right?
"You?! What kind of look is that?! You're just a slave girl, how dare you look at me like that?!"
The black-haired knight, Grid, suddenly became furious after encountering the girl's disdainful blue eyes.
Having to take such a burden with him while fleeing was already annoying,
Now, this lowly girl even dared to look at him like that?!
'Just asking for death!!!'
If he couldn't kill the abyssal demons or defeat the Divine Punishment sect members, could he not at least kill her?!
Thinking this, Grid angrily bit his lip, and his black eyes filled with murderous intent. He swung a fierce slap toward the pink-haired girl's delicate face!
"You lowly slave! Do you know who I am?! Try glaring at me again, huh?!!!"
Yu Mo: ...
