Chapter 332: Lin Xue and Allen's first quest

The golden barrier formed over the hill illuminated the area that it covered. In an instant, Lin Xue, Allen, and Yao Ling could see their surroundings as well as they could in a day.

Throwing away the unconscious Yan Huian aside, the three of them took a triangular formation in order to keep an eye on all sides.

Maybe, it is because the top of the hill is an open place, or maybe, it is because the top echelons of the 'Crushing Giants' gang were confident enough to take out their enemies. Whatever the reason might be, the boss of the gang and his four elders calmly climbed up the hill and slowly walked toward Lin Xue and others from all sides without any sudden ambushes.

Meanwhile, Allen was checking out the barrier that covered the entire hill. After analyzing its power through his scanning ability, he said, "Sister Lin, this barrier is quite different from the one that was placed at the cave. It seems to have a number of functions like anti-teleportation, noise canceling, vision canceling, self-repair, and ether restriction."

As Allen's voice wasn't low, the long-bearded old man who was walking with the help of a wooden staff let out a smile and nodded, "Indeed, the servant of Lu Zhen won't be an ordinary expert. Not only you had the strength but you also have great sensory abilities. It is too bad that you had a strong background that we cannot offend but that also means that you won't be able to leave alive from here as we want to protect our secret."

The old man's statement first shocked Lin Xue and Yao Ling, and then followed by making them feel depressed as their entire day had gone bad all because they discovered the existence of red sandalwood.

While Yao Ling was regretting his capture, Lin Xue was wondering whether she made the wrong choice in accepting this quest. After all, it is clear that they were at a great disadvantage when facing four experts of the peak-6-circle realm and a 7-circle realm expert.

As she was blaming herself in her head, Yao Ling spoke with a determined look, bringing her to reality, "Young Miss, all of this is my fault. I will detonate myself to take down the enemies and the barrier altogether. You and Mr. Allen should escape."

"What did you say?" She gave a sharp look as she immediately rejected the idea. "There's no way I'll allow you to do that, Uncle Yao."

Allen then shifted his attention to his friend as she was the leader of this party, "Sister Lin, what is your decision? Kill them and escape or destroy the barrier and escape?"

She took a glance at him and then at the enemies that surrounded them. After quick thinking, she connected her consciousness with her storage ring and took out a scroll before handing it to the android.

"Here, this is an instant teleportation scroll, which will take you directly to the Lin Clan's Mansion as long as you are not far than 10,000 km from our home. Look for an opportunity and use it by pouring ether energy." She gave away her life-saving treasure to Allen without caring about her own life.

Of course, she took this decision not just because she cares for Allen but it was also because of Mark.

She knew that Allen's unreasonable master would probably destroy the whole Lin Clan in revenge once he learns that she was the one who dragged her friend into this adventuring business.

And not to mention, if she wasn't with him, he could have escaped on his own with ease. For the sake of her clan, Allen must stay alive. Or atleast, that was what she thought at the moment.

However, she doesn't know that Allen cannot activate the scroll as he doesn't have any ether energy inside his system.

But, as he cannot say it out loud because of his master's order, Allen replied without taking the scroll from her hand, "The best course of action in this current situation is for you to escape, not me. Big Brother Lu is out of town and I don't have much credibility compared to the heiress of a major noble clan when it comes to convincing Lord Lin or Emperor Shang."

"You underestimate your master's fame in the city, Allen," said Lin Xue, not intending to back down from her decision. "You just need to meet my father and explain it to him. Without fail, he will talk to His Majesty to deploy a general to save us."

Allen stared at her while thinking about how to convince her in a logical way.

But, the enemies will not sit around and do nothing, right?

The boss of the gang appeared to have lost his patience and spoke out loud, "Okay, you have wasted enough time with pointless discussion. Now, prepare yourselves to die." He raised the staff and slammed its bottom end on the ground.

A mud dragon rose from the soil and flew toward Lin Xue's party at a very quick pace.

"Careful," screamed Yao Ling as he quickly shielded his young miss. Without hesitating to suppress his strength, he unleashed a barrier in the shape of a scarlet wall made of his ether energy.

While the barrier couldn't manage to stop the mud dragon, it took some of the damage and reduced the dragon's size, indicating its reduced power.

Allen immediately summoned his divine sword and swung it down at the incoming attack. The mud dragon was cleaved into two before disappearing into thin air, taking the enemies by surprise.

The old man furrowed his brows as his eyes fell on the glowing sword, "That sword's aura is too powerful. A top tier semi-divine grade sword or…"

As a crazy guess came to his mind, he dismissed the wooden staff and summoned his personal weapon, a semi-divine grade staff with the shape of a snake with its cobra head constantly spitting little flames. "Ashei, check out that sword's grade." He instructed.

The flames spitted by the cobrheaded scepter intensified all of a sudden as the old man received a reply. His eyes widened upon hearing it, "A divine grade?"

His facial expression immediately changed and a look of greed appeared on his face. He raised the scepter once again to unleash the skill, and this time, he didn't play around.
