Outside the southwestern city gate, the blood-scythe wielding witch charged at the city barrier like a crazed demon with no regard for her life.

Under the barrier maintained by Yunmei and the numerous garrison soldiers, Yino had already dragged the red foxgirl to take refuge behind everyone else, resting against the city wall.

Of course, he also temporarily discovered that the white dragongirl who had been following behind him seemed to have been forgotten.

However, this time Yino wasn’t worried at all. After all, Nina’s strength was probably nothing he needed to be concerned about. Even if she was left outside Yunmei’s barrier, she would be fine.

And indeed, that was exactly what happened.

Just as Yino stopped to rest, the white dragongirl who had just been forgotten somehow magically emerged from behind the crowd.

"Yino, are you flash or something?! You ran so fast I couldn’t keep up at all!"

She had indeed been quite exhausted from the journey.

Although she was a dragon empress in her own right, for this mortal realm experience, Nina had her master’s instructions to follow, and couldn’t casually use her powers in the human world.

Moreover... No matter how powerful Nina was, that completely corrupted witch was just too terrifying!

The witch in her first stage was still barely human.

But by the second stage, she already seemed like a humanoid creature with a mind filled only with slaughter.

By the third stage, she couldn’t even be considered human anymore!

Now, the third-stage witch not only had a hoarse voice like a demonic tremor, but her appearance had been completely distorted by black curse marks. That enormous death scythe she wielded seemed to be powered by inexhaustible strength as she roared and rampaged everywhere.

As they say, even the fiercest fear those who don’t value their own lives. No matter how skilled Nina was, she was truly frightened by this deranged witch.

What’s more... Yino had just said that this witch also mastered the evil technique to summon the Full Moon Mother Goddess!

That was even more terrifying!

The Full Moon Mother Goddess was one of the top-tier evil deities in the world that Nina had heard about since childhood during her lessons in the dragon palace!

If she were caught by these cult members, even Nina with her white dragon bloodline would have difficulty escaping a fate of demonic corruption!

So, Nina had been scared witless at the time.

From the moment Yino said with urgency that they needed to flee, Nina had grabbed his hand without a second thought.

But later when Yino said he’d forgotten his girl, he let go of Nina’s hand before she could even react and rushed back in a hurry, leaving Nina all alone.

At that moment, Nina stood still, staring at Yino’s retreating figure in a daze.

She suddenly realized something.

[Wait a minute!]

[I’m the heir to the Great Dragon Dynasty! My cultivation level is dozens of times higher than his, so why am I holding his hand to escape?!]

[No, that’s not right!]

[He took advantage of me! And I was even feeling grateful to him?]

The dragongirl’s mind spun in circles until she finally straightened out the logical relationship.

But even as she was lost in thought, another demonic vortex erupted not far behind her in the southwestern city.

Nina sensed the terrifying energy fluctuations, and despite her grievances, in this moment of crisis, her little heart couldn’t help but beat faster and faster out of concern for Yino.

But just as Nina was feeling uneasy, a black shadow came howling from the southwestern city.

Fierce winds howled as the shadow passed by Nina, kicking up so much sand and dust that Nina coughed continuously.

When Nina waved away the sand and looked up again, she was shocked to discover that the now completely corrupted one-armed witch was charging toward her at light speed.

Not only that, but behind the witch swinging her blood scythe, the front line barrier of the southwestern city had already been breached, and the vast demonic abyss rose from the ground, surging toward Nina.

"Holy shit!"

"HELP—!"

In that moment, Nina was scared witless.

She hurriedly turned to run, but looking back, she realized that the black shadow that had just flashed past was actually Yino!

Yino was carrying the foxgirl he had just rescued in his arms, both running so fast they disappeared in the blink of an eye, actually leaving Nina all alone in front of the witch!

Damn it! What happened to taking my hand?!

This neither-human-nor-ghost witch scared Nina too!

With no other choice, Nina used the greatest escape speed of her life, desperately chasing after Yino.

Yino ran in front, with Nina and the witch chasing in sequence behind him.

Fortunately, at the last second, Nina managed to step onto the city’s defensive position just before Yunmei deployed her barrier.

"Well, there’s nothing I could do about it!"

"I only cut off her arm in a fair duel, who knew the witch couldn’t handle losing and would have a breakdown?"

Yino gasped for breath heavily, but his 24K titanium alloy mouth still allowed him to feign helplessness with a straight face, waving his hand.

In truth, Yino had deliberately provoked the witch from the very beginning.

In the game, Moxin was a villain with a tragic background who had also committed many evil deeds.

Moxin, whose original name was Milen, was once a young leader of the demon-slaying army in Western Province City.

When he was still a young boy, his hometown had been massacred by witches.

Later, Malrik left his hometown, carrying the mission of revenge, embarking on the path of cultivation. Thanks to his talent in martial arts, he was gradually promoted to become the youngest and most promising general of Western Province City.

He had dedicated himself wholeheartedly to the Great Dragon Dynasty, spending almost every day and night on the front lines slaying demons and exorcising evil.

Until a hundred years ago during that demonic abyss tide, Malrik’s glorious record in the righteous path was finally tainted.

At that time, he had already severely wounded his sworn enemy witch on the battlefield. The witch fled in disarray, but Malrik was so obsessed with slaying her that he charged out of Western Province City’s barrier alone, riding the demonic tide.
