Chapter 35: Bad Intentions

Luo Shuang saw the finger-heart thunder from the Thunder Rhino Beast coming towards her, and her face turned pale with fear.

She had no time to sacrifice her magic weapon, but with a thought, a faint green spiritual light emerged from her body, instantly forming an eggshell, covering her inside.

"Puff." The basic spell of spiritual shield was naturally unable to resist the finger-heart thunder, which was as powerful as the primary spell. With one blow, the spiritual shield on Luo Shuang's body flashed and scattered, and then the residual power of the lightning hit Luo Shuang's chest. She couldn't help but scream, her chest was charred, and her body was hit three feet away, rolling into the grass, and her life or death was unknown.

"Luo Shuang." An angry shout came, and then a mini hill several feet in size suddenly appeared above the Thunder Rhino Beast's head, which surprised it. It instinctively wanted to dodge, but it was covered by a large net and had difficulty moving. This moment of delay caused the mini hill to fall heavily.

The Thunder Rhino screamed, and half of its body was broken by the mini hill. Blood gushed out like a spring. It stared with its eyes wide open, and died unwillingly.

When the Thunder Rhino died, the mini hill, which was several feet in size, also dissipated and disappeared.

Luo Shou didn't even look at the dead Thunder Rhino. Instead, he screamed and ran into the bushes, holding Luo Shuang, whose chest was charred, out. He opened the clothes on his chest and saw a blue inner armor flashing inside. A trace of relief flashed across his face, and he breathed a sigh of relief. However, although Luo Shuang was protected by the inner armor, he was still stunned.

He pinched Luo Shuang's mouth open, stuffed a few pills into it, and then put one hand on Luo Shuang's shoulder and slowly input spiritual power.

After a while, Luo Shuang slowly opened his eyes.

"Brother, I'm fine." Luo Shuang said weakly.

"With brother here, nothing will happen." Luo Shou hugged his sister tightly in his arms.

"Brother Luo, come over, we can't hold them back." At this time, the snake-eyed man's cry for help came from not far away. Luo Shou gently put his sister down, gave a few instructions, and then rushed towards the Thunder Rhino. As he chanted his spell, a set of khaki armor appeared around him, covering his entire body.

The Thunder Rhino was chasing the man and woman, and suddenly saw Luo Shou approaching from the corner of his eye. He roared in anger, gave up chasing the snake-eyed man and the pink-faced woman, and rushed towards Luo Shou instead.

Luo Shou was angry because his sister was injured, and he had nowhere to vent his anger. When he saw the Thunder Rhino rushing over, he immediately roared. The khaki armor on his body flashed yellow light, almost turning golden. This was the basic earth magic, the Earth Armor Art.

Seeing that the human did not dodge and rushed towards him, the Thunder Rhino also roared, white smoke rushed out of his nose, and he went straight towards Luo Shou.

The man and the beast collided with each other without making any sound, and Luo Shou was not knocked away by the Thunder Rhino. The Snake-Eyed Man and the Pink-Dressed Woman saw a shocking scene. Luo Shou actually withstood the Thunder Rhino's impact with his divine power. He held the Thunder Rhino's chest tightly with both hands, and his feet had sunk half a foot deep.

The Thunder Rhino obviously did not expect this result, but it immediately jumped up like thunder, its eyes instantly turned red, and the sharp horns on its forehead crackled with lightning.

"What are you waiting for? Hurry."

Luo Shou's face was flushed. Although he relied on the blessing of the Earth Armor Technique and his own innate divine power to withstand the impact of the Thunder Rhino, he knew very well that he could not last too long.

The Snake-Eyed Man and the Pink-Dressed Woman reacted and hurriedly sacrificed a flying sword magic weapon each. The two magic weapons circled in the air and split into two directions to slash at the Thunder Rhino.

The Thunder Rhino instinctively sensed the danger, and its limbs whirled like a whistling wind, trying to avoid the two flying swords.

"Want to leave? Don't you think it's too late?" Luo Shou sneered, and the armor condensed by the Earth Armor Technique on his body became more and more radiant, and his hands tightly clasped the flesh and bones of the Thunder Rhino's chest and abdomen, making it unable to move for a while.

The Thunder Rhino suddenly jumped up like thunder, and the sharp-horned lightning suddenly struck down, hitting Luo Shou's back.

Luo Shou groaned, but with the defense of the Earth Armor Technique, he took the Thunder Rhino's finger-heart lightning, but the armor on his back was also charred, and the yellow light was almost dim, but Luo Shou's face was hideous, almost crazy.

The sharp horns on the Thunder Rhino's forehead flashed with lightning again, followed by another lightning that struck down, hitting Luo Shou's back again.

"Puff" the armor condensed by the earth armor technique on Luo Shou's back was torn apart instantly, and the power of thunder and lightning was transmitted into his body in an instant. He only felt a shock in his internal organs, and suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his face turned pale instantly.

"Brother, let go quickly." Luo Shuang, who was far away, saw this scene and couldn't help crying.

"I must kill you today." Luo Shou's face was full of madness. A mini shield flew out of the big cloth bag on his waist, showing a triangular shape. As soon as it came out of the cloth bag, it immediately swelled up in the wind and became two feet in size, and then directly attached to Luo Shou's back.

As soon as this mini shield was attached to Luo Shou's back, a lightning bolt struck down again.

The mini shield made a "puff" sound, and the yellow light scattered like a spark, and a crack appeared in the middle of the mini shield, and then it broke into countless pieces like glass.

Although Luo Shou blocked the attack of the finger heart thunder, the shock it brought injured his internal organs again, and he couldn't help but spurt out another mouthful of blood.

At this moment, two sword lights circled around the neck of the Thunder Rhinoceros Beast. The two small eyes of the Thunder Rhinoceros Beast suddenly froze, and then the huge head fell off.

Caught off guard, Luo Shou was sprayed with blood from the Thunder Rhino.

Luo Shou didn't care about it at all. He tried to turn his head to look at the corpse of the Thunder Rhino, gasping for breath. Killing the two Thunder Rhino had cost him a huge price.

The Snake-Eyed Du and the Bian woman also came to Luo Shou. They looked at each other and saw fear in each other's eyes.

"I didn't expect that Brother Luo was not only proficient in earth magic, but also had defensive magic weapons, and even had a powerful weapon like the primary talisman." The Bian woman smiled charmingly.

Luo Shou didn't have the strength to answer at this moment. Fighting against the Thunder Rhino had exhausted all his strength, and in order to resist the Thunder Rhino's finger-heart thunder, his mana was also consumed.

The Bian woman glanced at the Snake-Eyed Du man and a sneer hung on the corner of her mouth.

The snake-eyed Du man also secretly winked at the Bian woman. The two were about to startle each other when a sound of breaking air suddenly came from the sky. They were startled and stopped their actions in a hurry.

They looked up and saw a man driving a strange magic weapon, flying towards the distance, and it seemed that he had no intention of landing.

"Brother Luo, we have hunted seven or eight thunder rhinoceros beasts in the past two months. This is a lot of spiritual stones, but if four people share it, it is a bit unfair. Besides, we all know that your sister Luo Shuang is only at the fifth level of Qi training. She is just a burden and did not contribute much in the process of hunting thunder rhinoceros beasts. So I discussed with Bian Qiniang and decided to send you brothers and sisters on the road, so that Bian Qiniang and I can also gain more."

"You." After hearing the words of the snake-eyed Du man, Luo Shou almost fainted from anger. The blood at the corner of his mouth gushed out again. His eyes were red, and he regretted that he should not have fought so hard when dealing with the thunder rhinoceros beast just now.

He could never have imagined that the two people in front of him actually wanted to kill people and steal treasures. Now his magic power was dissipated, his whole body was sore, and he had no power to resist. Moreover, his Xu Earth Shield magic weapon was also destroyed, and the primary talisman that he had always used as a killer to save his life was also used up. He had no capital to resist at all, which made him reveal a desperate expression.

"I will give you all the materials and spirit stones of the Thunder Rhino in my bag. I only ask you to let Luo Shuang go. She is only at the fifth level of Qi Refining and poses no threat to you. Don't kill her."

"Brother, don't ask them, I will fight them." Luo Shuang recovered a little magic power and barely came to his brother Luo Shou. His face was miserable. She heard clearly what the man surnamed Du and Bian Qinniang said.

"Hehe, Luo Shou, you are too naive. Even mortals know the principle of cutting the grass at its roots. Don't we cultivators know it? You have been in Wuyin Xiancheng for more than ten years. Do you think Bian Qinniang and I will agree to your request?"

"Brother Du, hurry up and do it, so as to avoid more troubles. If he has any means to quickly recover his magic power, we will have to spend more time and effort." Bian Qinniang's face was gloomy, and there was a murderous light in her eyes.

"If you want to kill my brother, kill me first." Luo Shuang's face was determined, but her eyes were full of despair. After she was born, she had never seen her parents. Only her brother took her to practice and hunt monsters. It was not easy along the way. She had thought about how she would die. She thought about being killed by monsters while hunting monsters, and she thought about not being able to improve her cultivation and dying in a hundred years. But she never thought that she would be betrayed by her teammates and die so worthlessly.

"Hehe, then I'll send you on your way first." The snake-eyed Du man's face flashed with a cold light, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. He gently patted the cloth bag on his waist, and a small sword flew out of it, flashing with cold sword energy, and went around Luo Shuang's neck.

"Clang~" The small sword was about to cut off Luo Shuang's head, but suddenly a small transparent shield of emerald green appeared in front of her. It was only about the size of a foot, but the green spiritual light on it was unusually condensed. At first glance, it looked like a huge piece of jade.

The small sword hit the small shield, making a sound of metal clashing, and then the light on the small sword dimmed, as if its spiritual power was greatly damaged.

"Who is it?" The snake-eyed Du man's face sank and he shouted angrily.

"I've seen many murders and robberies, but it's the first time I've seen a teammate killed." A faint voice came from the side, followed by a breeze, and a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy with fair skin, short hair, and bright eyes appeared. The boy was smiling, but if you look closely, there is no smile in the boy's eyes, only a hint of coldness.

"Xiao Lin?"

"Brother Xiao?"

Luo Shuang and Luo Shou recognized at a glance that the boy in front of them was the casual cultivator they met on the road a few years ago, the boy who was brought to the Wuyin Immortal City by them and encountered the immortal fate and embarked on the road of cultivation.
