Cultivation Simulator: Shocking the Academy-Chapter 482 - 335 Absolute Defense Dragon God Armor

Luo Chen was slightly taken aback. He turned around to look at Li Xin, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He hesitated for a moment, but finally voiced his thoughts: "We should try to escape on our own. I think I might be safer if I leave you." As soon as he spoke, a cold smile appeared on Li Xin’s face.

"You think you’ll be safer if you leave me?" Li Xin’s tone was tinged with a hint of sarcasm and disdain. She could clearly see the reservations and fear in Luo Chen’s heart, but she wasn’t angry or furious because of it. On the contrary, she continued with an almost calm tone: "I assure you, as soon as you are more than three meters away from me, that archer, second only to me, will shoot an arrow right through your heart."

Listening to Li Xin’s words, Luo Chen’s heart tightened instantly. He couldn’t help but swallow, asking in disbelief, "That formidable? Who exactly is she?" His voice carried a tinge of tremor and fear, clearly frightened by what Li Xin had said.

Li Xin observed Luo Chen’s reaction, a faint smile appearing on her face. She spoke slowly, "She’s my junior sister from the same sect; we are both disciples of Master Yi Jian, Lan Cai’Er. Her archery is extremely skilled, second only to mine. However, there’s one thing you can be assured of, and that’s she will never willingly shoot at me." As she spoke, a hint of confidence and pride flashed in Li Xin’s eyes.

"Why?" Luo Chen couldn’t help but ask curiously. He simply couldn’t understand why such a powerful female archer would spare Li Xin and not pursue her.

Li Xin let out a cold laugh and replied, "Because she is afraid of my counterattacks. We’ve trained together for many years, and know each other’s strengths and tactics inside out. She knows that if she rashly attacks me, she’s likely to face my retaliation. So, as long as I’m by your side, you’re the safest." At this point, a sly smile appeared on Li Xin’s face.

Upon listening to Li Xin’s explanation, Luo Chen suddenly realized. He couldn’t help but sigh with emotion: "So that’s how it is! It seems like staying with you is indeed safer." After saying this, he let out a sigh, filled with helplessness and regret. Had he known this would happen, he wouldn’t have traveled with these strangers at all. Now, he had inexplicably been drawn into the vendettas between the prairie tribes, truly an unexpected disaster!

The night was pitch black, and Luo Chen’s heart was filled with mixed emotions. Ever since he appeared in this world, it seemed as though he was bound by a fateful bond to disaster. He recalled all the past events, whether it was the upheaval caused at the Su Family, the crisis shared with the Black Panther, his encounter with the mysterious Exiled Immortal, or his falling out with the Junior Martial Uncle from the Divine Dragon Sect. Every time he appeared, it was accompanied by misfortune and conflict. And now, he seemed to be embroiled in another unknown calamity.

"Luo Chen, we need to get out of here quickly." Li Xin’s voice was exceptionally clear in the darkness, and her words carried a hint of urgency.

Luo Chen nodded, yet his heart was not calm. He knew that he seemed to have become a harbinger of bad luck, with every encounter weighing heavily on him.

"Let’s go, follow along the wall corner to the back. Once we reach the other side of that sand dune, we just need to run toward the edge of the Sunset Forest, and we’ll be safe." Li Xin continued, her voice firm and powerful, as if guiding Luo Chen.

However, Luo Chen felt some hesitation. "But..." he began, his words revealing a hint of uncertainty.

"Actually, we can’t outrun them, but as long as I have arrows in my hands, they won’t dare to approach. So, we still have a chance. As long as we reach the edge of the Sunset Forest, we won’t need to fear them anymore." Li Xin explained, her tone filled with determination and confidence.

Luo Chen was silent for a moment before he finally nodded. "Understood." He replied simply.

He felt his dragon armor on his chest, his only support and a source of comfort. Feeling the hard texture of the dragon armor, he immediately felt more at ease. At least, in this critical moment, he had this layer of protection. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

"Follow me." Li Xin said softly. Her words carried an indisputable determination.

In the darkness, Li Xin pulled Luo Chen by the hand, and the two of them slowly made their way to the back of the broken wall. Their movements were cautious and extremely gentle, afraid of startling the lurking danger. At the same time, those three bushy-bearded men unsheathed their curved swords and hid under the wall, preparing to ambush and attack the pursuers.
