As soon as Lin Mu heard her words, he stood up.

‘I guess it was about to happen.’ Lin Mu thought to himself.

So far they had mostly been facing weaker cultivators that were at the Third Tribulation Stage of the Immortal realm. They had come across a couple of Fourth Tribulation Stage immortals too, but they could still deal with them as long as they worked in a duo.

But that was only when the enemy Fourth Tribulation Stage immortals were alone. Now that they were in a pair as well, the two Ming Sisters were getting overwhelmed.

“My beast is injured thus I had to withdraw. Sister Aolian didn’t want me to be ejected and thus asked me to run away first to call for help.” Ming Dandan spoke.

Lin Mu knew that if a beast tamer’s beast lost, it was basically the same as their loss. In the case of the Ming sisters, they needed to keep their beast conscious even if it meant having to withdraw from the fight.

“I’m coming.” Lin Mu replied, while also informing Lu Xu and Qian Wen.

“Should we come too?” they asked.

“No, just stay here and guard. We still need this place for a few more days.” Lin Mu replied before leaving through the crack.

~shua~

Directly flying out at great speed, Lin Mu seared for the Ming Sisters. 

~BOOM~

~HOWL~

The howl of the Sky Soar Wolf was heard by Lin Mu along with the sound of an explosion.

“There they are,” Lin Mu locked onto their position and quickly flew there.

Being able to freely fly again felt nice to Lin Mu as he could now use his full capabilities. Having to restrict his use of his Spatial Skills, he was a bit slower but being able to fly made up for it a bit.

“Ugh!” Ming Aolian groaned as she defended against a rather heavy attack. “Push him Ting!” she ordered.

~HOWL~

The Sky Soar Wolf responded and slammed against a cultivator that seemed to be using a large war hammer. The man was pushed back for a few meters but was able to hold his ground.

“Hahah! That little mutt isn’t enough to fight us.” The man with the hammer said. “Weisheng, go get the other girl!” he spoke to his companion.

“On it Daoist Jianguo!” The other man named Weisheng replied.

He was using pair of serrated hooks that looked to be dripping with blood. 

~Whimper~

~THUD~

The Sky Soar Wolf was struck by the war hammer, causing it to let out a painful cry. 

“Sister Aolian, he’s coming!” Ming Dandan’s voice could soon be heard.

“There she is! She’s coming back on her own.” The man with the hooks said as a smile appeared on his face. “You made out work easier.”

~WHOOSH~

In the next moment, Weisheng threw out the serrated hooks, controlling them through his immortal sense.

Ming Dandan saw the hooks and knew she wouldn’t be able to defend straight away. 

‘Are we going to fall here?’ She wondered and closed her eyes in fear.

~CLANG~

But just as the hooks were about to reach her, something stopped it.

“Huh?” Weisheng was surprised to see a double edged sword there.

~shing~ shing~

And while his attention was captured by that, two streaks of light flew from the distance.

“What!?” Weisheng was barely able to respond at the last moment as he saw the fiery arrays that were heading towards him.

~BOOM~

~BOOM~

The two arrows missed the man but left a burn on his clothes. They had narrowly missed him but he was still surprised.

‘The fire bypassed my defenses?’ Weisheng was surprised.

“Brother Mu Lin!” Ming Dandan finally spotted Lin Mu who was flying towards them.

~twang~

The sound of the bow was heard clearly this time, the distance between them shorter than before. 

“You!” Weisheng quickly called his hooks back, wielding them to deflect the arrows.

~BOOM~ BOOM~

But much to his surprise, as soon as the arrows struck his hooks they directly exploded.

“Argh!” The man recoiled from the blast, more of his clothes on fire.

His sleeves had instantly turned into ash, while half of the robes on his torso were ignited. 

“Afternoon Pine!” Then, Lin Mu controlled his sword swinging it without stopping.

~SHING~

The double edged sword flew automatically, releasing a slash that traveled towards Weisheng.  ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

“You think you can defeat me this easily!?” Weisheng snarled before raising the hooks. “Flesh Rending Butcher Hooks! Rending curl!” the man used a skill as waves of immortal Qi rolled off his body.

The hooks glowed in a red light before slashing out. The red lights transformed into large meat hooks that clashed against the sword lights.

~CLANG~ CLANG~

“Hah! Just as I thought. You merely caught me off guard!” Weisheng said having blocked the slashes perfectly.

~TWANG~

But Lin Mu didn’t let the man have any time to relax, Wonder Seeker shot out more arrows.

~WHOOSH~

Having learned his lesson from before, the man didn’t try to block the arrows, instead choosing to dodge them entirely. 

“I got you right where I want…” Lin Mu muttered before clasping the double edged sword.

~HONG~

He slashed downward with the sword, and a pine tree rose out from the ground in the next moment. The tree continued to grow, and soon multiple of them started to appear.

“Dammit!” Weisheng realized that he was now surrounded by the Pine trees that were overflowing with Metal immortal Qi.

He could tell that if he touched those, he would get cut. 

AHHHHHH!” Weisheng started swinging his hooks indiscriminately, sending tens of red lights around him that transformed into more meat hooks.

~CLANG~CLANG~CLANG~

The sound of the lights colliding against the pine trees could he heard. While they didn’t break it, they were able to halt its progress.

“You alright?” With the man trapped, Lin Mu had a moment to talk to the younger Ming sister.

“Yes. I just have a few minor injuries.” Ming Dandan replied. “But sister Aolian needs more help!” she urged him.

“Of course. Let’s finish this up first…” Lin Mu said before jumping into the battle directly. 

~CLANG~

Facing Weisheng directly, Afternoon Pine struck one of the hooks.

“Ugh! You can’t—” But before Weisheng could say much, a blurry fist struck him.

~THUD~

The hooks were unable to block the sudden attack from Lin Mu, that knocked the man back. 

~WHOOSH~

Without waiting, Lin Mu lunged towards Weisheng, sending out multiple slashes. The man was still trying to recover from the punch and was barely able to see the incoming slashes before he was struck by them.

“AAAHHHHHHH!” Several cuts appeared on the man’s body, his robes almost turning to tatters.

“Time to end this.” Lin Mu stood in front of the man and struck out with his fist.

This time he punched the waist of the man.

~CRACK~

The sound of something breaking was heard, which might or might not include a few of Weisheng’s ribs.

~SHUA~

Then in the next second, his body turned into a flash of light and disappeared.

“WHAT!?” Jianguo who saw the defeat of his companion was surprised.

It hadn’t even been a minute since he had asked Weisheng to eliminate Ming Dandan, and now he was gone. 

“Who are you!?” The man questioned while swinging his hammer to keep the Sky Soar Wolf away.

“Ting! Come back!” Ming Aolian had also seen that Lin Mu had arrived and asked her beast to retreat.

Ting had also sustained several injuries and needed to heal up later. 

‘If not for Brother Mu Lin’s help in strengthening Ting, she might not have been able to last that long.’ Ming Aolian thought.

She knew that Ting battling a Fourth Tribulation Stage immortal was already quite good, and being able to stall two of them was even better. Something like this would not have been possible if not for Lin Mu’s help.

“Why are you assisting these girls?” Jianguo couldn’t help but question.

After all, to him, it didn’t make sense. Any more than two people in a group meant that someone was bound to lose out in the end. It was simply not a favorable thing and one wouldn’t make a alliance of three people.

~SLASH~ SLASH~

But all he got were a few sword slashes coming his way.

~TREMBLE~

The ground split up from the slashes, while yellow Metal Pine trees rose from it.

“DAMMIT!” Jianguo raised his hammer and slammed it down on the ground. 

~DENG~DENG~

The power of the attack was quite great and actually managed to stop the pine trees from approaching him. 

~CLANG~ CLANG~
