After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply-Chapter 795 - 548, Dark Shadow joins the battle

The shadow of the gigantic beast covered the sky and blocked the starlight above the barrier, plunging Cyan City into darkness.

In the underground shelter, the citizens gathered anxiously at the skylight, their hands folded in front of their chests, silently offering their power of prayer—if prayer would really be of any use.

The New Moon Knight gazed at the ten-thousand-meter tall demon ape, frowning deeply.

Who on earth could awaken the Heavenly Ruined Demon Ape in this era...

"Hmph, whatever. If I can’t bring back my sister, killing a Heavenly Pride Level Law Tier would also be a good return."

The New Moon Knight flicked her right hand, and her blood swiftly formed a Summoning Array: "Come forth, Ice Emperor!"

As a Legendary Rank, she naturally possessed a Law Giant.

"Whinny—"

Suddenly, the neighing of a horse tore through the clouds, the skylight of the underground shelter vibrating ominously, as if it would shatter at any moment.

A beast even larger than the Heavenly Ruined Demon Ape, wielding a silver lance and bearing the body of a humanoid centaur, stood proudly between heaven and earth.

Its body clad in silver battle armor, a handsome male head crowned with a circlet embedded with blue sapphires, its golden hair draped like a galaxy.

The centaur’s body leaned forward, the silver lance tucked under its arm, assuming a charging stance.

In the shelter, Angel’s eyes widened: "The Ancient Giant Beast, Ice Emperor Centaur!"

The Ice Emperor Centaur, lord of the north, ruled the Far North Plains for thousands of years in ancient times. Ordinary Five-colored Giant Dragons and even Metal Dragons were like lambs before the Ice Emperor Centaur!

"Whinny!"

"Howl!"

The Ice Emperor Centaur charged forward, its four hooves pounding the ground, creating crater-like pits as if from a cannonball.

The demon ape, like an athlete, flexed its muscles with a boom, leaping forward in a great stride, raising a cloud of dust ten thousand meters high, toppling buildings like blocks!

"Monkey, die."

The Ice Emperor Centaur, lofty as a noble, had a flicker of disdain in its golden eyes, thrusting out its lance over ten thousand meters long with a terrifying wind pressure, causing the void to wail under the strain.

Swoosh—

Despite its size, the demon ape moved with agility, leaping into the air to dodge the centaur’s charge, then unsheathed a black greatsword from behind, striking in mid-air!

A black crescent-shaped sword light slashed towards the centaur!

At this moment, the New Moon Knight was engaged in a fierce battle with Evelyn.

She glanced sideways, revealing a disdain identical to that of the centaur.

Did a Law Tier attack think it could harm a Legendary Rank? Dream on!

Even though the Ice Emperor Centaur’s bloodline hierarchy was suppressed by that black monkey, the immense gap between a Legendary Rank and a Law Tier was an insurmountable chasm.

She might not be able to take down Evelyn, but capturing a Law Tier with the potential to advance to the legendary could still make this journey worthwhile.

The New Moon Knight was full of hope, just waiting for the Ice Emperor Centaur to withstand the attack, then lift the lance again—the seemingly agile demon ape in mid-air had already nowhere to gain momentum.

The massive body of the Law Giant was both an advantage and a disadvantage; unless a beast was born with wings, it couldn’t fly.

Once the Ice Emperor Centaur pierced through the demon ape, it would also inflict injury on its master.

She was destined to win!

Spurt!

Before she could even taunt her opponent as a minion, a sudden sharp pain struck the chest of the New Moon Knight, causing her to spit a mouthful of blood!

"Wh-what?"

The New Moon Knight looked at her hand, stained with glaring red. Her wound was transmitted from the Ice Emperor Centaur, the servant she prided herself on being injured by that black minion?

Amidst her shock, a Moonlight Longsword appeared before her eyes.

In the briefest moment of distraction, such an opening in the battle of legendary ranks was absolutely fatal!

"Eve! Lynn!"

The New Moon Knight was filled with rage and shock.

The Moonlight Longsword spared no mercy, piercing straight through with a puff, and the New Moon Knight only felt a coldness in her left shoulder. Glancing sideways, she almost gritted her silver teeth in hatred: there was now a blood hole as thick as a rolling pin in her left shoulder!

It was her first injury, and it was caused by a Law Tier ant! frёeωebɳovel.com

It was like a haughty succubus being chastised by a village child, an ultimate shame that would make her roll on her bed even after ten years.

The New Moon Knight’s hatred towards this Law Tier reached its pinnacle; she had to kill the opponent no matter what!

Beaten by Evelyn to the point of spitting blood and flying backward, she crashed heavily into the ground, glancing towards the Law Giant, wondering how her ’Ice Emperor’ was injured, was that set of armor just for decoration?

By now, the Heavenly Ruined Demon Ape had already pulled away, holding a great sword of giant scale, with a savage smile.

In comparison, the centaur had a black scorching sword mark on its chest armor, the defensive power of a legendary rank proved to be as fragile as window paper in the face of such black magic power.

"Destruction Law?"

In the New Moon Knight’s mind, the image of a slender black-clad swordsman immediately surfaced.

Once a member of the Royal Capital, how could she not know her sister’s most competent subordinate, the Dark Shadow Dai Lian?

The Dark Shadow once appeared on the top twenty on the list of targeted demons, alongside many nobles and even legends.

The reason was its unfathomable Destruction Law.

Ignoring level disparities, it inflicted ’true damage.’

Once someone like this ascends to legendary rank, they would become a nightmare for demons.

Fortunately, he disappeared a few years ago, leaving no further trace and presumably dying in some Mystic Realm.

"Could there be anyone other than the Dark Shadow mastering the Destruction Law?"

The New Moon Knight was baffled, unable to comprehend.

Due to the unexpected appearance of the Heavenly Ruined Demon Ape, the two legends paused their fight briefly.

Shush!

As they watched, a gust of wind approached from the north.

A figure grew larger.

The magical dragon displayed its fierce fangs and claws, its black scales shimmering with a menacing light.

The Dragon Roar reverberated like thunder, proclaiming the monarch’s arrival.

It was an uncommon Dark Demon Dragon.

Even more astonishing, on the head of this notoriously unmanageable giant dragon stood an adventurer.

He wore a pure white mask, his black trench coat fluttering, arms crossed, with a hovering purple demon sword strapped to his back.

A pair of cold and indifferent eyes gazed silently at the two legends.

It seemed as though he, a Law Tier, was the most formidable presence on the scene.

The New Moon Knight’s body trembled, gasping for air.

She had to hurry back to the Demon King’s Castle and deliver the message.

[Dark Shadow] Dai Lian was still alive!!!

The magic dragon flapped its wings, darting past the stunned New Moon Knight like lightning, arriving at Evelyn’s side.

...

The two, separated for years, regarded each other silently, their gazes incredibly complex.

By now, how could the black-clad swordsman not understand that Evelyn was no traitor.

The two were still comrades who could fight side by side.

Evelyn maintained a poker face: "You’re late."

Black-clad Swordsman: "From now on, I will fight alongside you."

"What?"

Evelyn was taken aback, her eyes slightly widening.

After several invitations to Dai Lian to stay by her side, all previously refused, what changed today?

Before his disappearance, Dai Lian was at the Extreme Heavenly Rank, but after all these years, unexpectedly, he was only at the Law Tier, with a level aura around 84. Where had he been during these missing years, what had he done... and she sensed within him a power entirely contrary to the Destruction Law.

"Is this why you vanished from my sight? Dai Lian, show me how you’ve grown over these years; let’s see if you’re still fit to remain by my side." Evelyn removed her white fox mask, revealing a face so stunning it dwarfed the starlit-covered sky within the barrier.

Her eyebrows and pupils were silver, like a mirror without impurities, her subtle smile, like a yellow flower swaying on an icy plain, wafted its fragrant scent, seeping into the heart.

Even Lin Da, accustomed to beautiful maidens, was momentarily entranced.

"The title of ’The Continent’s Most Beautiful Woman’ was not undeserved; Evelyn’s aura was more compelling in reality than in any game."

"Wake up, the lust demon is your disguise; don’t actually fall for it!"

Lin Da secretly pinched himself; now was not the time to admire beauties. Everything had to wait until they defeated the New Moon Knight.

If possible...

He hoped to add one more Legendary Adventurer to the Mystic Continent.
