"The Zeng clan manor?" Yun Lintian frowned slightly. The Zeng clan's seal had been stolen by Shi Longwei a long time ago, and he had zero interest in whatever treasures were there.
"Why? We already have an agreement. You can't go back your word!" Shen Liqiu snorted angrily upon seeing Yun Lintian frowning.
Yun Lintian was rendered speechless. The agreement was to share treasures, but it didn't mean he would seek them out deliberately.
"Hmm?" Just as Yun Lintian was about to say something, he and Shen Liqiu perceived something unusual in the distance ahead.
Behind the fog, several silhouettes could be seen moving toward them with a bizarre cracking sound.
"That…" Shen Liqiu's expression turned serious. Her intuition told her they were something terribly dangerous.
Yun Lintian used Eyes of Heaven to check them out, and the scene that appeared in his vision instantly stunned him. The figures in the distance were actually a group of moving skeletons! Moreover, each one of them exuded a Monarch-level aura!
"I think they are skeletons of the experts in the past." Shen Liqiu used her secret technique to check them out. "How could they move on their owns?"
"They don't have souls or anything, but they can actually release auras." Yun Lintian frowned deeply.
"They're living dead born from obsessions." Lauya's voice resounded in Yun Lintian's mind. "You can use a Vermilion Bird flame to deal with them, My King."
"Living dead…" Although Yun Lintian had studied some undead-related books, he had never seen them with his own eyes before. He was surprised that they could maintain the strength they once possessed before their death.
"You step back first." Yun Lintian didn't think about it further. He said to Shen Liqiu and took a step forward. A scorching yet gentle flame lit up on his right hand. He gently waved his hand, sending a Vermilion Bird flame cluster toward the group of skeletons.
Crackle!
A bone-breaking sound echoed as the skeletons on the front exploded before getting burned into ashes a few breaths later. Obviously, the Vermilion Bird flame was working well.
Seeing this scene, Shen Liqiu's mouth opened wide, not knowing what to say. She had witnessed Yun Lintian's lightning and water elemental techniques before, but she didn't expect him to be proficient in the fire element too.
Furthermore, the flame he displayed clearly mixed with the wood element, which deeply confused her.
,m "You… How many elements you've mastered?" Shen Liqiu couldn't help asking. Her heart was tormented by curiosity. If Yun Lintian didn't answer her right now, she would bite him and force him to tell her.
Seeing Shen Liqiu baring her teeth as if she wanted to bite him, Yun Lintian subconsciously took a step back and answered. "Four elements. Fire, Water, Lightning, and Wood."
Shen Liqiu closed her mouth and took a deep look at Yun Lintian. "I'm getting more interested in you now. How about we get married? Our children would definitely be heaven-defying geniuses. At that time, I will give birth to twenty children and raise them to dominate the world for us." Her gaze seemed to fill with fiery desires as she continued. "Don't you think it's a brilliant idea?"
Yun Lintian was rendered speechless. He genuinely wanted to open this woman's skull and see what inside her brain was to have such an idea.
Shen Liqiu suddenly pulled her robe down slightly, revealing her snow-white shoulder, and said with a seductive wink. "I'm delicious, you know? Do you want to take a bite?"
Yun Lintian was numb by her tricks, but his eyes honestly stared at her shoulders.
Just as the two were flirting, the skeletons in the distance seemed furious. They locked their auras on the two and charged at them at full speed.
Yun Lintian and Shen Liqiu quickly turned around and entered a battle stance.
Shen Liqiu rose to the air. A pair of transparent golden wings appeared behind her. She pointed at the skeletons and was about to release her offensive move. In that instant, her complexion changed drastically as she felt a crisis coming from behind.
Yun Lintian seemed to perceive it too. He turned to look at Shen Liqiu and saw a huge skeleton that resembled a wyvern opening its jaws wide, aiming to crush Shen Liqiu.
Shen Liqiu reacted quickly. She released a golden pagoda to protect herself and activated a movement technique to avoid the incoming attack.
Meanwhile, Yun Lintian performed the Dragon Fist, sending a fire dragon toward the wyvern-like creature.
Boom!
The Wyvern was knocked back by the fire dragon, but it didn't seem to feel anything. Its hollow eyes stared at Yun Lintian and let out a terrifying cracking sound, indicating it was furious.
Shen Liqiu retreated to Yun Lintian's side and looked at the wyvern in shock. "It's the Skymist Dragon!"
Yun Lintian had no time to ask anything about it. Both of his hands were covered with the Vermilion Bird flames, and he quickly sent flames clusters toward the group of skeletons that was charging toward him.
Boom!
The skeletons were either exploded on the spot or blown away by the impact. Yun Lintian didn't stop at that. The White Dragon Spear appeared in his hand as he lunged forward, releasing a spiral dragon shape that ignited with the Vermilion Bird flame toward the rest of the skeletons.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The spiral flame dragon traveled through the pack of skeletons and instantly shattered them before transforming into a giant flame pillar, continuing to burn the enemy.
At this moment, the Skymist Dragon skeleton opened its mouth wide, revealing a terrifying energy ball within it. Its power immediately caused the surrounding space to tremble, letting Yun Lintian know it was the Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm creature!
"Come here!" Yun Lintian shouted at Shen Liqiu, who was staring at the Skymist Dragon in shock.
Shen Liqiu returned to her sense. She didn't hesitate to rush to Yun Lintian's side, and the latter quickly grabbed her waist before executing the Shadow Step.
The Skymist Dragon didn't seem to care about Yun Lintian escaping. Its hollow eyes had never left the target before sending out a deadly beam toward Yun Lintian in the next moment!
