The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 622 - 130: The Restless Little Maid

When Wu Xin called for help, Lin Yun was still repairing the dam.

Because the requirements for the dam were quite high, Lin Yun aimed to build one that could withstand the mysterious blue water; naturally, he couldn’t treat this matter lightly.

This mysterious blue water possessed unfathomable power. Currently, none of Lin Yun’s methods could handle this deepest blue water; his only hope was that the dam, reinforced by the spell array he had inscribed, would be able to resist the water to a certain degree.

Even with a man and three women working tirelessly day and night, by Lin Yun’s schedule, it would take at least seven more days to complete the dam’s construction.

This was because Bai Jiaojiao, Wang Wanqiu, and he himself were working around the clock, twenty-four hours a day; otherwise, the scheduled time would have to be extended to a month.

Bai Gan, being too weak, couldn’t labor for long periods. After working eighteen hours, he needed a six-hour rest, truly a disgrace to the working people.

Hearing Wu Xin’s call, Lin Yun was momentarily stunned. At first, he thought it was Hu Yuling calling for help, given that Wu Xin, a Defiant Heavenly Realm powerhouse, should be invincible in this world. For her to call for Lin Yun, she would have had to use the title of master, otherwise she couldn’t make the call.

Who in the world could force Wu Xin to call someone master?

Lin Yun felt that even Bai Jiaojiao’s strength probably wouldn’t be enough for that.

But since it has happened, it meant that Wu Xin had encountered an enemy she couldn’t handle, and the enemy was very powerful.

Lin Yun glanced at the dam still under construction and found himself at a loss for words.

I guess I’m like a firefighter now, huh? I’ve just finished saving Wang Wanqiu here, and now I have to go save Wu Xin.

But since Wu Xin was a fish he had hooked, now that she was calling for help, Lin Yun decided to go and save her.

"Stop what you’re doing for a moment; a new storm has arisen."

Lin Yun uttered a line that sounded rather chuunibyo, but the other three didn’t care about that chuunibyo part; they were only concerned about stopping their work.

Bai Jiaojiao dropped the soil in her claws, and Wang Wanqiu also laid down her sword.

This sword was a gift from Lin Yu, which she treasured. Yet, Lin Yun had recruited her to use it as a tool for plastering work.

As for Bai Gan, he was so happy that he immediately lay down on the ground, finally able to take a break. To him, Lin Yun was a devil; during the construction, he really worked them like beasts of burden.

Not even a donkey worked like they had to, busy from dawn till dusk, only getting six hours of sleep, with nothing but fasting pills to eat that tasted of nothing.

Lin Yun didn’t look at the ripples that spread after Bai Gan collapsed. He said to Bai Jiaojiao, "We have to make a trip to the west."

Then he looked at Wang Wanqiu and asked, "Would you like to help? It could be dangerous."

Wang Wanqiu’s combat prowess wasn’t to be underestimated. Lin Yun didn’t know what kind of enemy he would face, so having more people on his side was always a good idea.

"I’ll go."

All her thoughts and emotions condensed into two words.

Wang Wanqiu answered decisively, whether it was to repay Lin Yun for saving her life or for some other reason; in any case, she had her own compelling reasons to go.

"Then let’s set off at once!"

Bai Jiaojiao: "..."

Am I being used as a tool dragon by you?

These past few days, she hadn’t had a single moment of idle time. What happened to the promise of not having to work hard? It seemed even harder than before...

However, she just complained in her heart. Things had been busy lately, and she could understand Lin Yun. Maybe things would get easier after this busy period.

Bai Jiaojiao took to the clouds and headed west. Lin Yun didn’t know Wu Xin’s exact location, only the general direction. But this sense would become clearer as they got closer, so there was no need to worry about not finding her. He just hoped she could hold on a little longer.

And Bai Gan, who had just lain down and closed her eyes, suddenly felt that something was amiss.

Hey, what’s going on? Where are you all going? Why aren’t you taking me with you? My poison isn’t cured yet!

Bai Gan’s morale collapsed.

You all better come back within seven days...

At Mount Heavenly Dragon, Wu Xin could be said to be in quite a sorry state right now; Yu Jiaolong knew that thunderbolts were her nemesis and kept releasing lightning.

"Thunderbolt Half Moon Slash!"

"Thunderbolt Half Moon Slash!"

"Thunderbolt..."

"Don’t you have any other moves?"

Wu Xin was electrocuted until she was crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, and it was incredibly uncomfortable. However, Yu Jiaolong’s thunderbolts were not as powerful as Lin Yun’s; they could only make her miserable, but they couldn’t kill her.

The upside was that her life was not in danger; the downside was that she kept getting shocked without it being fatal. And since these people had also cast the Greenfall Nether Divine Art, she couldn’t leave.

"Thunderbolt Half Moon Slash!"

Responding to Wu Xin was Yu Jiaolong’s unwavering "Thunderbolt Half Moon Slash."

Wu Xin was speechless.

How could she be so unlucky to never encounter anyone normal? Yu Jiaolong’s spell had no interval between casts, was tremendously powerful, and had a wide coverage; she only needed to shout to activate it.

If that were all it was, Wu Xin could have simply allowed herself to be shocked once and then kill her. However, the full-body armor Yu Jiaolong wore protected her from all angles without a single blind spot. Wu Xin thought about poking her eyes but upon reaching out, she discovered that there weren’t actual holes where the eyes were, but two pieces of transparent crystal. Almost breaking her fingers with the poke, she realized she couldn’t penetrate Yu Jiaolong’s defense.

Unable to fight back, with space confined and nowhere to flee.

Unable to die,

Yu Jiaolong had become the ultimate torturer.

"If you don’t stop, when my backup arrives, none of you will be able to escape!"

As soon as Yu Jiaolong heard this, she panicked.

She was actually also quite surprised, how was this person simply impossible to kill?

Was this even a human?

No, she was certain that it wasn’t!

Yu Jiaolong gripped her sword, and said coldly, "I’ve spared you for now, but now that your reinforcements have arrived, do you really think you’ll retreat just like that?"

Clearly, her head was still very clear.

Seeing that she had no intention of backing down, Wu Xin turned to look at the others who were trapped in the plight of their Heart Demons and threatened, "You won’t be able to kill me no matter what, and if you push me too far, not one of the people you brought will survive."

Yu Jiaolong said indifferently, "Then kill, if you must. After all, none of us who came here ever planned on returning alive. Besides, it’s not as if I can’t kill you if I pay a sufficient price."

As she spoke, the sword in her hand lit up with a glow once more.

Obviously, this was the prelude to unleashing her ultimate technique; Wu Xin quickly extended her hand to stop her, saying urgently, "Wait! We aren’t necessarily enemies!"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing these words, the glow from Yu Jiaolong’s sword dimmed, indicating that she had stopped initiating the Divine Art.

Wu Xin relaxed slightly. Negotiating peace wasn’t a problem for her—she was quite experienced in this field!

"You’re not from this world, right? Neither am I!"

Yu Jiaolong: "..."

You’re not a Guardian of this world, yet you’ve fought with me for so long?

"Baseless words, how can I believe you?"

In her heart, Yu Jiaolong was almost convinced. She hadn’t heard of anyone from the Primordial Realm being immortal and capable of evoking evil thoughts in other’s minds, but she lacked understanding of the Primordial Realm. If she could take this opportunity to learn something, it would make her subsequent actions a bit easier.

"I am a demon, from the Demon Realm."

Yu Jiaolong: "..."

So this is what a demon is?

However, she had never heard of demons before.

Probably demons appeared after the Tai Bai Divine Kingdom was exiled!

Seeing Yu Jiaolong in such a contemplative state, Wu Xin struck while the iron was hot, "We don’t necessarily have to be enemies; we could even become allies. There’s no need to continue this cycle of fighting and killing. Moreover, you can’t kill me, and I can’t do anything to you, so a stalemate is pointless."

The ability to checkmate each other was indeed the capital of negotiation.

In reality, Wu Xin had a slight advantage—she was all alone, while Yu Jiaolong had many allies.

Although she truly didn’t care about the lives of these people, if everyone were to be killed by Wu Xin, she wouldn’t be able to justify it.

"Then lift your spell from them, and we’ll have a proper talk," said Yu Jiaolong, not giving Wu Xin any room to maneuver, because she could make Wu Xin suffer.

Both sides had their strengths and weaknesses, as well as their own demands. Having Wu Xin lift the Heart Demon Slash was a sign of Wu Xin’s sincerity.

For Wu Xin, this was indeed a trivial matter.

Taking a deep breath, streaks of dark Qi flew out, clustering around her.

The Heart Demon Slash not only did not consume Demonic Qi but could actually help her accumulate even more of it, because the human heart can generate evil thoughts, which in turn breed Demonic Qi.

And the Demonic Qi produced by these inhabitants of the Divine Realm was even more pure. Wu Xin felt that although she had been struck by lightning for quite some time, it was still worth it.

Most importantly, she had found an ally.

Making her deal with Lin Yun was certainly the right move, and also letting Lin Yun taste the Thunderbolt Half Moon Slash.

Wait, something was wrong—how had Lin Yun gotten so close so quickly?

Wu Xin, perceiving Lin Yun homing in on her location, was instantly shocked. She had merely called for help mentally; she didn’t expect Lin Yun to arrive so swiftly.

This guy, could it be that he cared a great deal about me?

Wu Xin couldn’t help but feel somewhat moved. As a demon lord who wandered alone, accustomed to the malevolence in people’s hearts, she had never experienced what it felt like to be valued. She was only familiar with the taste of betrayal and backstabbing.

Because Lin Yun was closing in, Wu Xin had to make her conversation brief.

"My person is about to arrive; he’s a very troublesome individual. Perhaps he is the Guardian of this world. I suggest you leave now, otherwise I’ll have to help him when it comes down to it later." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Wu Xin didn’t hesitate to sell out Lin Yun. Moved as she was, she still intended to keep her tactics to herself.

These strangers from other worlds were related to whether she could find a way to break the Four Spirits Barrier and become a Heavenly Demon; naturally, she didn’t want Yu Jiaolong to fall at Lin Yun’s hands.

As for Lin Yun being the Guardian of this world, that was pure nonsense. Could that scoundrel really guard the world?

Saying he was the reincarnation of the Demon Lord from the Demon Realm would be more like it—he was more demonic than the demons themselves!

Yu Jiaolong, after hearing Wu Xin’s words, also looked grave. They had just battled with Wu Xin, and Wu Xin had explicitly stated that if a fight broke out later, she would assist the Guardian. If she couldn’t handle Wu Xin, how would she deal with the Guardian?

"I understand. I’ll take your advice to heart. Until we meet again," said Yu Jiaolong.

Having finished speaking with Wu Xin, Yu Jiaolong then said to those wearing blue clothes, "People of Canghai, prepare the Canghai Mulberry Field Divine Art!"

Canghai Mulberry Field was a Divine Art of the Canghai Divine Kingdom, a powerful transportation spell capable of moving one area to another.

The more people who cast the spell, the greater the range and distance became.

Now, Yu Jiaolong was obviously prepared to follow Wu Xin’s advice and retreat first.

With the sound of the sea’s waves, the whole valley was covered by seawater, and Wu Xin consciously left the area affected by the seawater.

But at the very last moment when the Divine Art took effect, accompanied by a dragon’s roar, a White Dragon arrived...

The inhabitants of the Divine Realm trembled, terror-stricken by Ancestor Bai, showing a conditioned response upon seeing the White Dragon. It was during their shivering that a glimmer of cold light struck Yu Jiaolong’s face...
