Chapter 347: Chapter 295: Sanctuary
"Arrogant!"
"Ignorant!"
"Bold!"
From behind Lady Yongge, individuals turned red with anger and shouted loudly.
"What an ignorant and conceited being! Do you even know the greatness of the Sanctuary!"
An old man with white hair also stepped forward from behind Lady Yongge. The old man was wearing a luxurious Enchanted Mage Robe, with Magic glowing on it, indicating that his own level was not low either.
"No need to say more." Lady Yongge’s face was like frost, and her aura began to rise.
Level eleven!
Lady Yongge had already broken through from level nine to level ten long ago, but being naturally cautious and without any dependencies, she had managed to hide this from the people around her for over a hundred years.
After all, she knew there were those around her who were lackeys of the temple.
In the city where the headquarters of the Torrent Song School was located, an old man from a certain temple had also been coveting her body.
It was only when she sensed she was about to breakthrough to level eleven that she released the news.
However, shortly after she released the news, she received information about the death of her capable subordinate, Alola.
Outrageous!
Although Alola was arrogant and disregarded others, there was a reason for this.
The reason was that Alola was someone that Lady Yongge had watched grow up!
Alola was the descendant of Lady Yongge’s deceased friend, so she had nurtured him into her capable subordinate, pouring in a lot of resources.
Later on, although Lady Yongge didn’t treat Alola as kin, after all, he was too annoying.
But everyone knew that Alola was like a dog to Yongge!
A dog must be considered before beating it.
If someone beat Alola, the dog, and Yongge, the owner, didn’t step forward.
Then no one would respect her anymore.
Of course, if the one who beat the dog became the dog, that’s another matter.
"I grant you death."
Lady Yongge placed her right hand to the side: "Rose Thorn."
A Mage immediately stepped forward and handed the Magic Staff to Lady Yongge.
Although she didn’t have a Space Ring, Lady Yongge had a bunch of Mage servants attending to her.
Holding the beautifully crafted Rose Thorn Staff, the magic elements around Lady Yongge began to shimmer.
She didn’t need to defend at all because people around her had consensually started casting protective spells to shield her.
She only needed to focus on attacking.
Lin Ke watched silently.
This tactic of having some people defend while others attack seemed pretty scientific.
After all, everyone had their strengths.
Those who were good at attacking should attack, and those who were good at defending should defend.
Naseng usually developed overall, like Ove, who was not a weak Mage, but wielded the Thunder Staff, pounding the enemy’s [Scholar].
"Lord Buck, Lady Yongge has reached level eleven, should we retreat?" Andor gritted his teeth and stepped forward to dissuade.
"Yes, yes!"
"That’s the Sanctuary, originally called the Sanctuary..."
"It’s terrifying!"
Behind Lin Ke, members of the Flame Demon School were also astonished, since they only knew level ten as legendary.
Level eleven Sanctuary, their meager knowledge had never witnessed it.
Even level tens were rare.
But...
"Level eleven... is level eleven really that strong?"
Lin Ke shook his head and took a step forward slowly.
The people around were suspicious and uncertain.
"Lord Flame Demon, the enemy has reached Sanctuary." Andor’s teacher was somewhat afraid and tentatively suggested, "Shouldn’t we just merge into the Torrent Song?"
He had already begun referring to the Torrent Song as a sect in his speech, with a look of fear in his eyes.
Lin Ke glanced at him.
Andor’s teacher was rather "mature," always thinking of clinging to a big thigh at the first sign of trouble.
For example, the Flame Demon King Buck was his primary thigh, and now facing a second one, the old fellow couldn’t sit still.
"Great Flame Demon King, after killing her, I want her clothes!" The madwoman didn’t care about the Yongge Lady opposite, just humbly and madly asked Lin Ke.
"Oh? How did you know I would kill her?" Lin Ke raised an eyebrow: "I’m only level ten."
"Intuition, Lord Buck." The madwoman’s face almost grinned to her ears: "I trust my intuition!"
"Very well." Lin Ke nodded.
He didn’t need loyalty fostered by emotion; that wasn’t realistic.
He needed loyalty, whether it be out of oppression or forced necessity.
"I’ve always wondered what kind of fool would cultivate a fool like Alola..."
Lin Ke stepped forward slowly, his tone relaxed and joyful.
"Seems you have chosen death." Lady Yongge had deliberately slowed down, but now her Magic Power began to explode.
"Torrent!"
Lady Yongge raised her arms, two purple water spheres converged in her palms, energy surging inside.
Though she had just advanced to level eleven, she didn’t relax in the face of Lin Ke.
As a level eleven existence, she had witnessed many instances of the weak overcoming the strong.
Moreover, she had only just advanced to level eleven, and there wasn’t a massive difference from level ten, strictly speaking.
"Torrent? Do you know what a torrent truly is?" Lin Ke slowly stepped forward, steady and confident.
"Hmph." Lady Yongge’s face grew colder, and the two water streams left her hands as she proclaimed in an operatic tone: "Mere Flame Demon, you can only be extinguished beneath the torrent!"
Two purple water beams transformed into long dragons roaring out, the purple brilliance flickering, and the surrounding air slightly trembled.
It seemed that these attacks were formidable!
"This is the level nine magic ’Torrent’! The signature magic of the Torrent Song sect!"
Andor’s teacher’s face changed drastically.
But, including him, everyone raised magic shields, blocking Lin Ke.
Despite speaking of surrender, they hadn’t defected in battle immediately.
They were still supporting Lin Ke.
However, the two water beams seemed capable of breaking through everything, as shields appeared as fragile as paper, being pierced instantly.
Yet Lin Ke didn’t halt his steps.
"Water subdues fire?" Lin Ke chuckled: "You see, this is where the world perceives differently... What restrains fire isn’t water, but oxygen; oxygen gives rise to fire and draws fire to... What’s it to do with your water?"
He said, as scorching flames rose from his body.
Skill - Overheat!
The heat from Overheat was not solely absorbable at zero degrees, usually, Lin Ke managed with the power of [Scholar].
The immense heat impact on the water flow evaporated it nearly instantaneously.
And with the release of the skill, Lin Ke’s power surged overwhelmingly.
"How is this possible?!"
Lady Yongge exclaimed, furrowing her brows: "Level twelve?!"
And accompanying her exclamations, faces were changing one after another in the Torrent Song sect.
Flame Demon King... Sanctuary?!
