Well, this wasn’t the first time this has happened with Lin Xiao, so Caesar was already used to it.

It doesn’t matter who contributed, he came here to save Lin Xiao, so as long as he was fine, his goal was achieved. So Caesar had nothing to complain about, he causally shook his head and patted Lin Xiao’s shoulder. There was a deep meaning behind his smile as well, as if everything was worth it since Lin Xiao was alive.

Lin Xiao could feel Caesar’s friendship from his pats, but there was a sudden chill and he couldn’t stop shaking.

“Uh… Caesar, I’m touched by you coming to save me… b-but, can you not smile at me?”

“Hm? Why? Is my smile ugly?”

“N-no… you’re handsome! But I… I…”

“I understand Lin Xiao! Is it because his smile reminds you of her?” Rosie understood Lin Xiao’s hesitance and joined in.

“Right, right! They’re just too similar! My heart’s beating so fast… Rosie, you as well?”

“Yes, yes! Me too! My heart can’t stop beating when thinking about her!”

“They should test if they’re related, they might actually be siblings!”

“Hm… no, no, they might even be the same person! It’s even more exciting when you think about it like that!”

“So you’re saying… my god Rosie, you’re a genius!”

Lin Xiao and Rosie suddenly got closer and excitedly talked about strange things that no one else could understand with flushed expressions…

“Hey, are you guys alright?”

Caesar ignored the other two and walked next to the tree and asked Elena and Mina about what happened while inspecting ShenDai Ying’s wounds.

Elena was never good at lying, even to someone like Caesar. She was afraid of letting something slip, so she continued to act aloof.

After introductions, Mina found out about Caesar’s identity and was willing to help, but unfortunately, as a normal person, she couldn’t endure the strong magic power and quickly passed out in the beginning, so she didn’t know much.

So only ShenDai Ying was left.

Although she was awake she was extremely feeble, and as someone who was infected, he knew how terrifying the bug was and they had no cure so they had to quickly bring her to Snow!

Like that, Caesar’s rescue mission came to an end, but there was an even more important mission now. That was to escort ShenDai Ying and the Holy Crystal fruit safely back to the city!

“There’s no time to lose, let’s go!”

“But Caesar, wait… there’s still so many living dead, should we go a different way?”

“Don’t worry, there’s probably not many left by now.”

“Hm? What do you mean… do you still have other helpers?”

“Yes, I got Yao Zi and Lin Tian as well, they also wanted to save you… though we weren’t of any help in the end, hehe.”

“Hm, that means they’ve been at the foot of the mountain this whole time?”

“That’s right.”

“Tsk, that might be troublesome, they wouldn’t have run into the third apostle, right…”

Lin Xiao was worried as he remembered the direction the third apostle fled to.

Although with their strength they should be fine against the heavily injured third apostle, he was worried about them because of their dullness.





Ten minutes prior

When Caesar and Rosie rushed up the mountain, there was a strange black cloud that floated down, it was also carrying a strange person that seemed to be angrily muttering to himself.

“Damn, damn… damn Lin Xiao, even if you defeated me, let’s see how you avoid your lover’s sword!”

Once infected, that woman would surely lose control and since Lin Xiao had no cure, his only choice would be to personally kill her or die in her hands. Either way, it was a good thing and he was able to feel better.

Of course, he had no idea that with the help of the demon king, Lin Xiao was able to wake ShenDai Ying and avoided a tragedy, otherwise, he would probably pass out from anger.

“Hmph, you just wait, when I get back… hm? Wait, that’s?”

The third apostle saw the living dead he prepared beforehand rushing toward the top of the mountain, but he saw something strange.

There were two people massacring his army!

“First it was Lin Xiao, now these nobodies are trying to take a dump on me as well!?”

He might not be able to beat Lin Xiao, but he was enough to take care of these nobodies. He floated over and prepared to attack, but he suddenly recognized the two of them.

“The wizard’s bloodline possessor, Yao Zi and her useless brother Lin Tian?”

He had thought he would easily take care of them, although they may be small-fry, but in his current state, Yao Zi still may be able to beat him.

Was his only choice to escape?

“Wait… there’s something strange!”

The strange thing that caught his eye wasn’t Yao Zi, but her useless brother Lin Tian!

“Strange, it’s too strange… that kid…”

He was thinking about his grand plan! After all that work, his plan was about to succeed. That thing was soon to arrive and become witness to the birth of the new world! But that thing wasn’t perfect and still had room to improve. In order for that improvement, the third apostle was looking for a suitable person to be a living sacrifice! After his observation, he was sure that Lin Tian was the person he was looking for!
