Book 11: Chapter 28

With superhuman jumping power off the height of a twenty-story building, Yalide, like a falcon, quickly approached the running masked woman. Just as she stretched out her hand and was about to grab her, a water arrow was suddenly shot out from a dark spot below a rock at the beach.

Yalide's eyes narrowed, and forcibly flipped herself over in the air before landing on the ground.

"Boom!" A burst of sand and dust was stirred up. "Swishhh," just like skiing, after sliding along the sand for a certain distance, Yalide stopped.

At that time, including the previous masked woman, a total of four people stood in all four directions, North, South, East and West, with Yalide in the center.

"So, Im surrounded now?" Yalide asked with a smile.

The answer to her was the magic of the four: Water, electricity, wind, and darkness. They were four elemental attacks with different attributes.

In the room, Lin Xiang rolled over and continued sleeping. The sound-proofing effect of the glass door was exceptionally good. Lin Xiang was also sound asleep.

Dust filled the sky, and black smoke rose. The four masked people did not let their guard down. Each of them had magic in their hands, ready to attack at any time.

"Whoosh!" A shadow jumped out and high. In the bright moonlight, black hair fluttered. A pair of bewitching red eyes shone with light. Raising her right fist, Yalide faced one of the masked person, who was using electricity, and dove down.

"Hhong!" Before the previous sand and dust dissipated, another wave started. The person-in-black, who was shielded by the orange electric current, slipped out of thick sand and dust. The person was almost hit in the middle. Fortunately, a quick dodge was initiated. However, before the person could catch some needed breaths, Yalide rushed forward. Just like before, Yalide's seemingly innocuous fist hit the masked person yielding electricity.

However.

Several water arrows flew from the side, aiming at the weakest part of the human body.

Yalide closed her fist temporarily, and moved left and right to avoid the water arrows. Her series of movements were smooth and flowed like water. Although the distance between her and the masked people with electricity was a little further away, it did not matter. She raised her fist again, and her target was still the masked person using electricity.

"Heh." Just when Yalide's fist was half a meter away from the persons chest, the masked person chuckled.

"Ah?" Yalide's lower body suddenly seemed to be immobilized, unable to move. She looked at the wind-attributed masked person. Was it the wind-binding technique? At that moment, an orange light also lit up under her feet.

"Hhong!" A burst of orange light shot into the sky. It was a lightning array composed of high-intensity currents, and the lightning array was an advanced magic extended from lightning runes. According to the electricity-attributed masked persons rank, that lightning array could instantly turn living things into charcoal, or even ashes.

It lasted for about five seconds before the light disappeared. The blackened sand on the ground was smoking, and the electric current slightly flashed from time to time. There was no sign of a living person. Yalide might have turned into the black substance on the sand, and had no chance of dying twice.

"Have we succeeded?" said the water-attributed masked person. Like the wind-attributed masked person, feeling excited.

The electricity-attributed masked person spoke no words. The eyes between the hood and the mask showed a trace of solemnity.

As if sensing something, the electricity-attributed masked person suddenly turned to look at their companion, the masked woman, who used dark magic. A dagger emitting chilly cold light was placed lightly on her neck, and her lavender eyes were full of turmoil.

Her body froze, and she even felt the woman behind her sniffing her neck.

"Such a great scent, you are a spirit from the outer world, right?" Yalide touched her ear with another hand, "Don't deny it. Its sharp here."

The other three masked people looked at Yalide in disbelief. When did she

"Tell me, why are all of you targeting my brat?" Yalide's hand slowly slid down the masked woman's neck, and finally grabbed the masked woman's breast, fondling it.

"Uh." The masked woman's eyes were filled with humiliation, and a dagger slipped gently into her hand from her drooping sleeve. Although the dagger in Yalide's hand was snatched from her, she had two of them.

Lin Xiang walked into the bathroom to wash and straighten his hair. After a while, there was a knock on the door. It was Dusty and Fire Dance.

"Master, let's play together today. Teach us to swim." Fire Dance said.

"Yes, yes," Dusty, on the side, nodded.

This, it's not very convenient I have to continue yesterday's training.

"Why not? You can clearly teach that big sister, who teaches swords." Fire Dance puffed up.

"Yes, yes," Dusty nodded quickly.

Thats because you two are relatively young and I can't take good care of you. Your athletic cells aren't as strong as Senior Kaorus.

Lin Xiang scratched his head, "How about I buy a swimming float for you? Then you both can learn it slowly."

"So, is it alright for Master to be by our side?"

"Absolutely."

"Oh! Lets go swimming."

After breakfast, the sun had already hung obliquely in the sky, and its color had changed from red to yellow. It was unknown if it was due to the early morning, or due to the cooler sea, there were not many people at the beach that day. Satsuki and the others also played too much the previous day. They now had sore bodies, so they did not visit the beach. Only the five people, who were Lin Xiang, Silent Water, Reidy, Dusty and Fire Dance, were there.

"Then I'll go over there and buy the swimming floats. You girls can wait here." Lin Xiang walked towards the shop by the sea.

When he returned with two swimming floats, Fire Dance and Silent Water were picking up shells on the beach. Dusty sat on the sand, letting Reidy play with her hair.

"How about this?" Reidy grabbed two heaps of brownish-red hair from both sides, and Dusty looked she was having a pair of ponytails, looking lively and cute.

"Hey~ I can't see it."

"I'll find a mirror for you to look at later."

"Sure."

Witnessing that scene, Lin Xiang felt a wave of warmth in his heart. It was comfortable. They were all his family. Lin Xiang once again strengthened his determination to protect their smiling faces no matter what.

Suddenly, Lin Xiang was bumped by someone, and turned his head, only to see that the person who bumped him just turned his head too. It was obvious that the person bumped into Lin Xiang after taking several steps back.

He was a slightly overweight male in his mid-thirties, dressed in casual clothes, with squinting eyes and glasses, looking friendly.

"Sorry, sorry." The slightly fat man quickly apologized to Lin Xiang, "I was looking at something and didn't notice you for a while. You aren't hit anywhere, right?"

"No, I'm fine." Lin Xiang smiled at him. The slightly fat man made an apologetic gesture to Lin Xiang, then left, continuing to walk along the beach with his back towards Lin Xiang. His thick lips were still moving, not knowing what he was doing.

(Authors note: For some reasons, the settings had been modified, that is, an extra rank is added in front of the demon exorcist, which is demon resistor. Therefore, now the ranks are demon resistor, demon exorcist, demon hunter, demon exterminator, demon slayer, theses five ranks accordingly. The demon exorcist trial that Lin Xiang participated in also became the demon resistor trial.)
