Inside the cave.
Meng Hongchen, who had seen everything outside, had her delicate fists clenched white long ago.
She saw Ling Luochen fall, and her heart sank with her.
"Xiao! Brother Liu Yuan! Are we... are we really not going to make a move?" Meng Hongchen's voice carried a trace of trembling and anxiety, "She is about to be killed! She ended up like this because she was hunting down Evil Soul Masters!"
Although they were not from the same academy, Evil Soul Masters were the common enemy of all Spirit Masters.
Furthermore, Meng Hongchen's nature had always been kind.
So she couldn't bear to see someone being tortured to death by Evil Soul Masters right in front of her.
Xiao Hongchen's face was grim to the extreme, his brows locked into a "river" shape.
His heart was also engaged in a fierce battle.
As the pride of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, he had his own pride and sense of justice; watching a Righteous Path Spirit Master being tortured to death by Evil Soul Masters, he also couldn't bear it.
But he knew better that impulse was the devil.
He was still hesitating: "Meng, calm down! If there wasn't that six-ring Evil Soul Master, the three of us together might be able to fight. But with that six-ring Evil Soul Master added, if we rush out, the probability of us failing is high!"
Xiao Hongchen took a deep look at Liu Yuan, who was silent beside him.
He knew Liu Yuan's strength was very strong, unimaginably strong.
Although Liu Yuan had never clearly stated his spirit power Rank, in Xiao Hongchen's view, being able to alone instantly kill a ten-thousand-year level Black Gold Horned Bull Beast so casually, Liu Yuan's actual combat power was at least level fifty-eight or nine, close to the level of a Spirit Emperor.
But, that was a genuine Spirit Emperor-level Evil Soul Master after all!
The abilities of Evil Soul Masters were simply too bizarre and too insane! Killing across Ranks was almost a common occurrence for Evil Soul Masters.
And from what they had seen so far, they had only just seen a few Spirit Abilitys of those Evil Soul Masters.
That Spider Emperor Spirit Emperor still had four spirit ring skills that hadn't been used; who knew what kind of insidious and treacherous killer moves were hidden in there?
With serious insufficient intelligence and the enemy being the most difficult Evil Soul Masters, rushing out rashly would not only fail to save the person but would also very likely get all three of them killed! He had to be responsible for his sister and for his friend, Liu Yuan.
However, just as Xiao Hongchen was still weighing the pros and cons, trying to persuade himself and his sister to remain rational, Liu Yuan, who had been silent, suddenly sighed lightly.
"However... I guess I still can't just sit by and watch!"
Liu Yuan's voice was very light, but it carried an unquestionable determination.
He was actually not afraid of those clowns outside. Possessing the Mega Rayquaza Spirit, he was confident he had a hundred ways to grind these Evil Soul Masters into dust.
The reason he hadn't acted sooner was purely because Ling Luochen's special identity as part of the "Shrek Supervisory Group" reminded him of Xuan Zi's unpleasant old face, which made him instinctively unwilling to act.
Why should he be the one to solve Shrek Academy's problems?
But after thinking about it carefully, he finally let it go.
The one who offended him was Xuan Zi, the so-called high-level figures of Shrek Academy, not this lonely, dutiful girl fighting in front of him.
Every debt has its debtor; he didn't need to vent his anger at Xuan Zi on an innocent and brave girl.
If he could save her, he should.
Consider it for his own conscience that couldn't stand Evil Soul Masters, and also for that life he didn't want to see extinguished.
"Brother Liu Yuan, you..." Xiao Hongchen was shocked when he heard Liu Yuan's words and quickly tried to dissuade him, "Don't be reckless! It's too dangerous to act now! That Spider Emperor Spirit Emperor's strength is unfathomable, we..."
Liu Yuan shook his head and interrupted him.
He turned his head and looked at the worried Xiao Hongchen, a relaxed smile appearing on his face, a smile that carried a confidence and calmness born from absolute strength.
"Brother Xiao, I understand your concerns." He said calmly, "Since you are afraid that the strength of those Evil Soul Masters is too bizarre and their Spirit Abilitys are too hard to defend against..."
Liu Yuan paused, his tone casual, yet as if stating the simplest fact:
"Then, before they can react, just instantly kill them all, wouldn't that work?"
The moment the words fell, the siblings Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen were completely stunned.
Instant... instantly kill?
That was a Spirit Emperor and three Spirit Kings! Four Evil Soul Masters! You say instant kill just like that?
Before they could recover from these earth-shattering words, a heaven-shaking change had already occurred on Liu Yuan.
"Spirit, Possession!"
There was no earth-shattering dragon roar, nor any gorgeous, dazzling light effects.
A supreme Divine Might, as if from the ancient primordial era, overriding all things in heaven and earth, suddenly erupted from Liu Yuan's body!
A Holy Light interwoven with emerald and bright gold flashed across his body, and an invisible airwave swept out from him as the center, blowing the campfire in the entire cave to a sudden stop, as if even the flames felt trembling under this pressure!
Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen only felt an indescribable, huge pressure rushing toward them, causing their breathing to suffocate, almost making them kneel down on the spot.
They looked at Liu Yuan in horror; in that instant, the Liu Yuan in their eyes seemed no longer a teenager, but an ancient deity controlling the firmament and the Law!
And just as they were distracted, Liu Yuan moved.
"Extreme Speed!"
Swish—!
No sound, no warning.
Liu Yuan's figure, right before the eyes of Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, abruptly, unreasonably... disappeared.
As if he had never existed, only a wisp of air slightly distorted by extreme speed remained in place.
...
Outside the cave.
"Don't be in a hurry to kill her," Spider Emperor stopped Magic Scorpion, who was about to deliver the killing blow, a cruel smile like a cat playing with a mouse on his face, "Such a top-grade Ice-attribute Spirit Master is rare. Her Soul must be very delicious. Wait for me to slowly concoct her, extract her Soul..."
His words came to an abrupt end.
A stream of light interwoven with emerald and gold, like the first ray of dawn cutting through the eternal night, appeared in the field silently at a speed beyond their cognitive limits.
The stream of light swept past the bat Evil Soul Master, the short, stout body stiffened, the last vitality in his eyes fixed in horror.
The stream of light flashed past the snake Evil Soul Master, the thin, long body trembled, and his life force was instantly extinguished.
The stream of light bypassed to behind Magic Scorpion, Magic Scorpion's pupils shrank to the size of pinpoints, but he could only watch helplessly as a slender finger, flashing with holy green light, brushed gently across his neck.
Finally, the stream of light stopped in front of the Spider Emperor.
Liu Yuan's figure slowly solidified, his expression was neither sad nor happy, a pair of eyes as deep as the starry sky, reflecting the Spider Emperor's face twisted in extreme fear.
"You..." A word was squeezed with difficulty from the Spider Emperor's throat.
Liu Yuan did not give him any chance to say a second word, pointed like a sword, and tapped lightly on his forehead.
"Thump!" "Thump!" "Thump!" "Thump!"
Almost at the same moment, four dull sounds of bodies hitting the ground rang out one after another.
Spider Emperor, Magic Scorpion, the snake, and the bat—four powerful Evil Soul Masters, maintaining their posture before death, fell straight down, with no more sound.
Each person's neck or forehead had an extra thin blood line that was almost invisible!
And after this scene appeared, the surrounding air fell into complete dead silence!
