Proving the Dao of Hunyuan from the Age of Witches

Chapter 051 Conflict

"According to the information left by Yao Yao's consciousness communication, she was lured into a shopping mall with traps by a phantom formed by an abnormal entity, and was directly teleported to another place and attacked."

"Although Luo Xi rescued her, Yao Yao's body has already suffered irreversible damage, and with her magic power exhausted, her life is already on the countdown."

"So, to prevent the anomaly that would occur after her death from being absorbed by the abnormal entity, it was Yao Yao who begged Luo Xi to kill her?"

Bei Qi looked at Shui Lin in disbelief and recited the last message from Yao Yao's consciousness communication.

"Yes," Shui Lin said gravely, "Yao Yao's last communication was this message."

"Luo Xi... how could she?" Bei Qi gritted her teeth. "Yao Yao is our partner! We're teammates!"

"Luo Xi... how could she do this!"

"It was Yao Yao who begged Luo Xi to help her get out of this predicament," Shui Lin said calmly. "According to the information Yao Yao left behind, the situation was urgent at the time, and she was on the verge of death. If Luo Xi hadn't taken action, she would have died too."

"If Yao Yao dies, she will trigger new anomalies. The convergence of several anomaly cores will create an even more dangerous situation."

"Yao Yao's choice is the best choice!" Shui Lin sighed almost imperceptibly. "Luo Xi's approach is the best approach."

"No, I will never forgive Luo Xi for what she did. Yao Yao is my friend!" Bei Qi said through gritted teeth.

"Don't be like this. Luo Xi must be feeling terrible too. She's the youngest witch among us," Shui Lin said, pulling Bei Qi back. "She must be under a lot of pressure doing this!"

"You mean, she killed my best friend, and I'm supposed to comfort her?" Bei Qi laughed angrily.

"No matter what, our primary task now is to deal with the abnormal phantom, obtain the abnormal core, and resolve the abnormal event!" Shui Lin's voice remained calm.

"I've confirmed it's an anomalous entity, but... its location is hard to pinpoint," Shui Lin comforted her. "How about we prioritize dealing with the anomalous events? Besides, this world is acting strange, haven't you noticed?"

Bei Qi shook her head, looking very unwilling, and it seemed that she was still thinking about Yao Yao.

"Let's go back to the center of Qianhe County and report the situation to Captain Wei Ying," Shui Lin suggested.

……

At this moment, Luo Xi was moving quickly using her consciousness to walk. Suddenly, Luo Xi's eyes flickered, and she stopped in her tracks.

In my perception, the abnormal phantom was moving rapidly again.

No longer holding back her magic, Luo Xi unleashed her full power, increasing the distance and speed of her consciousness's movement by more than tenfold.

In an instant, a main road appeared for Luo Xi.

That's right, it's about 20 kilometers away, and it only took less than five minutes to get there.

This was Luo Xi's first time using consciousness walking, and she wasn't very familiar with it. In addition, she almost bumped into telephone poles and big trees a few times, which delayed her and caused her to take so long.

If she's skilled enough, she can probably get here in three minutes!

Coming to her senses, Luo Xi looked at the two witches in front of her and recognized them as her witch teammates.

With a blank expression, Luo Xi asked directly, "What just happened here?"

One of the witches looked at her coldly, "You killed Yao Yao, didn't you?"

Luo Xi's expression remained unchanged, but her mind was racing.

Did Yao Yao transmit some information through consciousness communication before she died?

Was she slandered?

"The situation was urgent at the time, and I was unable to save Yao Yao. I'm very sorry," Luo Xi explained calmly.

"I don't hear any remorse from you, you show no remorse whatsoever," the witch said coldly, as a piece of metal flew towards her!

It can only be said that Luo Xi's perception is truly terrifying; before the attack even arrived, she had already dodged it.

"What do you mean?" Luo Xi asked coldly.

"What do you mean? You killed Yao Yao, and you're asking what I mean?" The witch's attack didn't stop. Several pieces of metal floated up beside her and then attacked Luo Xi again!

Luo Xi's expression turned cold, and she activated her magic, instantly slicing the metal into thin threads.

However, the shredded metal wires did not fall to the ground; instead, they tautened and straightened, attacking Luo Xi once again.

The power of enlightenment in Luo Xi's magic was activated, and the metal wire softened again. The metal wire could not advance any further when it got within about a meter of Luo Xi, and it no longer posed a threat to Luo Xi.

"Bei Qi, stop!" Shui Lin shouted urgently. "Yao Yao used her last strength to send a message, not to make us kill each other!"

"I'm sorry Yao Yao is dead," Luo Xi sneered, "but your attack on me, disregarding the bigger picture... if it were an ordinary person, they would be dead by now, wouldn't they?"

"Since that's the case, if you wish to die, it's as easy as turning your hand!" Luo Xi activated her consciousness movement and instantly appeared behind Bei Qi. Her magic, which had cutting properties, was already activated and blasted towards Bei Qi!

The attack failed. A thick layer of ice appeared in front of Bei Qi, and magic with cutting properties slammed into the ice. Luo Xi could feel that the ice was full of magic, and only in this way could it possibly block her attack.

Luo Xi slowly turned her head to look at Shui Lin, her eyes icy. "Interesting. Am I not the only one hiding information?"

The consciousness walking was activated again, and Luo Xi instantly appeared in front of Bei Qi, but Bei Qi had obviously already reacted and launched a counterattack.

The metal controlled by Bei Qi attacked her!

Luo Xi used her Enlightenment-type magic to form a defense, while at the same time, her Cutting-type magic slammed directly towards Bei Qi's head!

The moment the magic was released, my hand froze.

Luo Xi appeared not far away in an instant, silently looking at her frozen hands, her face expressionless.

As the magic was activated, Luo Xi actually felt a blockage, and her frozen hand did not instantly recover.

Looking at the instigator, Shui Lin, who had intervened, only looked at her with a face full of apology.

The ice on her hands slowly disappeared, and her arm returned to normal. Luo Xi moved her arm around, and Shui Lin's apologetic voice came from behind her, "I'm sorry, Luo Xi, Bei Qi just couldn't accept the facts for a moment, that's why she attacked you."

Luo Xi merely gave a cold laugh and did not reply.

As the strange phantom seemed to be getting further away, Luo Xi became less anxious.

Since she doesn't care about the overall situation, there's no need for her to be so proactive in dealing with unusual events.

Anyway, she was only there to retrieve the abnormal core, the inner core of the demon beast she identified.

Several more steel bars shot towards Luo Xi, but Luo Xi activated her consciousness movement and dodged the attack.

Seeing Bei Qi's refusal to give up, Luo Xi sneered, "You're courting death. Since that's the case, I'll send you on your way and accompany Yao Yao on her journey, so she won't be alone."

Before she could finish speaking, Luo Xi's consciousness travel had already begun, and a fist appeared in front of Bei Qi.

Shui Lin blocked him again.

Even though Luo Xi maintained her body tempering and possessed the strength to bend a steel pipe with a single slap, the ice block that appeared in front of Bei Qi's face still blocked Luo Xi's attack.

"Interesting. It seems that any magical property related to consciousness, spirit, or mind can greatly enhance reaction speed," Luo Xi laughed.

That's right. Luo Xi was able to avoid Bei Qi's attacks not only because of the effect of her consciousness walking, but also because of her extremely fast reaction speed.

Shui Lin's ability to block her attack in the blink of an eye also demonstrates that Shui Lin's reaction is extraordinary.

"Since we've already made our move, let's all attack together," Luo Xi activated her consciousness travel and appeared not far away. "In this world, I am invincible."
