I Might Be A Fake Cultivator Chapter 548 - An Lin’s Powerful Brigade

“Little Na! Are you alright, Little Na?” An Lin inquired in a panicked voice.

Tina didn’t reply. She was clutching her chest as it rose and fell with her violent panting.

Ca.s.sidy, Merlin, and Xue Zhantian all gathered around her with different expressions on their faces.

“Fragments of the realm core can be fused into one’s body? Why have I never heard of this?”

Merlin’s eyes widened with incredulity.

“My thirty milliliters of blood, gone…” Ca.s.sidy looked like she was at the brink of tears.

“Is she finally taking her first step toward crus.h.i.+ng the sky?” Xue Zhantian muttered to himself with a solemn expression.

The white light gradually subsided as Tina’s breathing settled into a slower rhythm, indicating that she was no longer blighted by pain.

She opened her teary emerald eyes as she curled herself up into a ball in An Lin’s arms before sobbing into her hands. “Giant An Lin… did… did I screw something up?”

An Lin rubbed her head with a smile on his face. “Everything is fine as long as you’re ok. Let’s get out of here now!”

Outside the black tower, the pillar of white light piercing the heavens suddenly vanished.

The stocky old man’s body faltered just as he was about to unleash his song of slaughter to kill the two snow maidens. He turned around with an expression of crus.h.i.+ng disappointment. “How… how did we fail? No, the aura of the fragment of the realm core has disappeared…”

The tall old man turned to look up at the tower with confusion and disbelief on his face.

Everything had happened far too quickly, so both of them were taken by surprise.

The defenses of the tower hadn’t been breached, but they overlooked the possibility of potential change in the situation within the tower…

The sky began to crumble as if it were a pane of gla.s.s that had lost its support. The shards of the new sky began to dissipate, thus revealing the starry night sky above.

The crimson formation on the ground also began to lose its l.u.s.ter, and the sound of all the wandering souls resumed as everything returned to their former state.

The Realm-Piercing Nail streaked through the air like a crimson bolt of lightning before shattering the defensive spell formation of the black tower.

A group of figures flew out from within the tower. An Lin, Tina, Ca.s.sidy, Merlin, as well as Xue Zhantian, who kept Qin Sheng, Ta Bo, and Mi Na levitating in the air through the use of a spell technique.

After the fragment of the realm core merged into Tina’s body, the illusionary realm crumbled. Following that, the remaining three Return to Void Stage mighty figures all awakened in succession.

None of them were idiots, and after looking around at their surroundings, they all realized what the situation was as different expressions appeared on their faces.

“Have I been saved… No, this might not be a rescue mission…” The Light Wing Clan mighty figure, Qin Sheng, looked at the two active Blood Tribe cultivators beside him, and his face darkened slightly.

Ta Bo, on the other hand, began to chortle with glee. “Ca.s.sidy, Merlin, well done! Not only did you save me, but you also captured two opposing mighty figures! I’m going to report your heroic feats to Emperor Yi Deng once we get back so that he can reward you both!”

Mi Na’s eyes were slightly downcast, but she would occasionally glance at An Lin with a thoughtful expression on her face.

The Dark Realm Vines binding their bodies had extremely fearsome sealing power, and as a result, they were still unable to battle. Thus, they would most likely require external a.s.sistance in order to free themselves from these vines.

“Ca.s.sidy, get rid of these annoying black vines for me,” Ta Bo issued a command.

However, to his surprise, Ca.s.sidy completely ignored him.

He faltered slightly before turning his eyes on Tina. As for An Lin, he was just a Soul Formation Stage cultivator, so Ta Bo automatically ignored him. Could it be… that the fairy was the leader of this group?

Ta Bo was just about to speak to Tina when the two elderly men in the distance focused their eyes upon Tina while monstrous killing intents burst forth from their bodies!

“Who are you? How did you get here?” the stocky old man asked in an aggressive voice.

“Where is the fragment of the realm core?!” The tall old man’s hands balled up into fists as he struggled to contain his seething emotions.

“I don’t know… The fragment of the realm core suddenly disappeared,” An Lin replied with an oblivious expression.

“I saw what happened. It looked like it tore open a spatial rift before falling into chaos,” Ca.s.sidy lied without so much as a blink.

Everyone else remained silent. No one would admit to taking the fragment!

Admission would be akin to direct provocation to the two elderly men!

Hence, it was best to pretend to be oblivious to the entire situation!

It was all thanks to the timely appearance of An Lin and the others that the two snow maidens were able to avoid death.

Lü Dongbin still had blood smeared on the corners of his lips, and his mind was still groggy from the fists of the tall old man. He had only just come to his senses when he caught sight of An Lin who was in between two Blood Tribe cultivators. He then immediately flared up in rage and demanded, “b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Release An Lin at once or I will cut you down!”

Merlin faltered slightly before pointing at himself. “Me?”

“And you!” Lü Dongbin pointed his sword to Ca.s.sidy.

Ca.s.sidy: “…”

“Don’t worry An Lin, I’ll protect you.” A gentle smile appeared on Lü Dongbin’s face as if he was trying to instill confidence in An Lin.

“Er… Senior Lü, please calm down. They’re both allies,” An Lin hurriedly explained in fear of Lü Dongbin striking down his underlings.

“What?” Lü Dongbin’s expression faltered.

“Well… as you can see, they’re both my slaves,” An Lin replied.

Everyone instantly fell silent.

Ca.s.sidy and Merlin nodded with earnest expressions. “An Lin is our master; we’re all allies!”

Lü Dongbin: “…”

His body suddenly swayed slightly as he ma.s.saged his head before looking up at the sky. “What a terrifying illusionary realm. To think that I would fall under its spell without even realizing it…”

“Wow! You’re so awesome, Giant An Lin! So this Big Brother and Big Sister are both your slaves…” A vibrant smile appeared on Tina’s face as she settled herself on An Lin’s shoulder like a dependent little bird.

Aside from the two red-robed elderly men, everyone turned their eyes upon An Lin as they drew sharp intakes of breath.

It was very clear now that An Lin was the leader of this group!

“So he’s the An Lin from the Vermilion Bird Sect battle? He really is an unfathomable man…” Su Jingxiang stared at the handsome man in the distance with a hint of awe and veneration in her eyes.

“Just his ability to remain calm in the face of the tall old man’s interrogation is enough to inspire awe and respect,” Yan Hua chimed in.

She didn’t want to admit this, but if it wasn’t for An Lin’s timely appearance, they would most likely be dead already. Looking at it that way, it could be said that An Lin was their savior.

The most shocked person among everyone was Ta Bo. He stared with incredulity at the man standing before him, and he felt like his brain had been reduced to mush.

Ca.s.sidy and Merlin, who were revered by countless Blood Tribe citizens in the Dark Marshlands, became slaves to a Soul Formation Stage cultivator? This was surely too far-fetched even for an illusionary realm!

In the end, Ta Bo opened his mouth before closing it again as he simply didn’t know what to say to An Lin.

Qin Sheng heaved a light sigh of relief. The human race was quite friendly with the Light Wing Clan, so he could confirm that this was indeed a rescue mission to him.

Sure enough, Tina seemed to have received a voice transmission from An Lin, and she nodded lightly before blasting a bolt of destructive white light from her palm, thereby instantly pulverizing the Dark Realm Vines around Qin Sheng’s body.

Thus, the leader of the Light Wing Clan Return to Void team, Qin Sheng, was freed!

This was another clear indicator that An Lin truly was the leader of this group!

Just as everyone’s hearts were still dealing with the shocking revelation, the two red-robed elderly men had already sprung into action, and their target was none other than the leader of this group, An Lin!
