Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!

Scorching blood gushed from Yongfang Chunlan’s mouth, and she fell like a kite with a broken string.

The effect of the ”Green-faced Ghost King” skill, ”Violent Disassembly,” was incredibly powerful, smashing five of Yongfang Chunlan’s ribs in one go.

The fragments of the shattered ribs pierced into Yongfang Chunlan’s internal organs.

With each breath, Yongfang Chunlan’s chest felt as if it were scorched by a raging fire, as if the shadow of the Death God appeared before her, raising its scythe to slaughter her.

There is a rumor that right before death, a person’s consciousness becomes exceptionally clear.

At this moment, Yongfang Chunlan’s consciousness was exceptionally clear, and some scenes flashed before her eyes like a revolving lantern.

Am I going to die?

So decisively defeated by the enemy...

Yongfang Chunlan could not accept dying like this, knowing there was still much to do, knowing she hadn’t yet seen Lux’s ideals realized...

How could she be defeated like this?

She placed her hand on her chest, and green light emanated from the palm of Yongfang Chunlan, seeping into her chest cavity, greatly alleviating her pain.

Yongfang Chunlan also learned Healing Magic, but it had many disadvantages compared to Holy Light Healing.

The complexity of casting Healing Magic far exceeded that of Holy Light Magic.

For a magician of Yongfang Chunlan’s level, using Healing Magic required considerable preparation time.

Gao Yuanyi flew in at high speed, aggressively, leaving Yongfang Chunlan no time to cast Healing Magic.

She simply treated herself briefly.

In her heart, Yongfang Chunlan remained optimistic.

If she gave up, it would all be over.

Surrounded by Bai Jin and the others meant that the opponents Lux needed to deal with would be significantly reduced; just a bit more time, and Lux would surely defeat his enemies.

She absolutely couldn’t collapse so easily, allowing those besieging her to go after Lux again.

As Yongfang Chunlan fell, the Flame Magic woven by Li Yan continued to burn fiercely, creating a strong updraft.

Desperately twisting her body, Yongfang Chunlan faced the flames and struggled to lift her Zen Stick, releasing a massive amount of magic power, forming a glider around her.

Caught in the updraft, Yongfang Chunlan soared upwards.

With flames jetting from his feet, Gao Yuanyi relentlessly pursued Yongfang Chunlan.

The enemy was still struggling, possibly using unfamiliar magic or unknown tools.

But Gao Yuanyi was not one to hesitate.

Wielding Laplace, Gao Yuanyi tightly clenched his fist. The ”Green-faced Ghost King” effect had two uses left, and he had to decide the outcome in these attacks.

”Ghost Dance. Modified!”

The horn on his forehead emitted a dazzling blue light, and a gigantic ghostly figure appeared, clawing behind Gao Yuanyi, merging entirely into his body. His strength and speed increased by 20%, and he gained an additional 20% armor penetration out of thin air.

The output increased, but it was still slightly insufficient to empty all the blood in Yongfang Chunlan’s Blood Bar.

However, it didn’t matter. Yongfang Chunlan was already heavily injured, barely halting the blood flowing from her wound but her Blood Bar continued to deplete slowly.

Victory was imminent.

Again swapping places with a ghostly shadow, Gao Yuanyi closed in on Yongfang Chunlan.

”Ghost Charge!”

His body vanished suddenly, and in the blink of an eye, Gao Yuanyi was beside Yongfang Chunlan, swinging a massive mechanical fist at her head.

Yongfang Chunlan had anticipated Gao Yuanyi’s arrival, releasing substantial magic power to generate a potent magic fluctuation.

Releasing such a significant magic fluctuation would weaken her, but Yongfang Chunlan was determined, releasing a massive amount of magic power to strike Gao Yuanyi beside her.

After all...

What good is magic power if you’re dead.

Releasing such a huge amount of magic power at once, even if she died, Lux should be able to harness it and put it to use.

The intense magic shock slammed into Gao Yuanyi’s face, leaving cracks.

With the flame ejector at maximum power, Gao Yuanyi was prepared and wasn’t blown away by the sudden release of massive magic power.

He pulled out a small ball from the system and hurled it forward.

The ball exploded in front of Gao Yuanyi, releasing a deep yellow smoke.

The yellow smoke from the ”Mandala Pollen Bomb” wouldn’t be affected by surrounding explosions or magic, enveloping Yongfang Chunlan directly.

The ”Mandala Pollen Bomb” not only paralyzed others but also disrupted their senses, inducing illusions.

Familiar memories surfaced before Yongfang Chunlan, as if she saw the revolving lantern again.

Yongfang Chunlan had experienced similar skills before and knew how to counter the effects of the ”Mandala Pollen Bomb.”

She quickly placed her hand on her chest, dispelling the magic she had just cast on herself.

In an instant, the unbearable pain surged through Yongfang Chunlan’s chest again, causing her to spit blood once more.

The pain swiftly cleared Yongfang Chunlan’s mind.

At this moment, Gao Yuanyi’s glowing fist was already poised before her, unfaltering as it struck at her head.

She swung the Zen Stick backwards with all her might, ”Clang”—it collided with Gao Yuanyi’s unwavering mechanical arm.

The force from Gao Yuanyi’s hand instantly flung the Zen Stick back, and Yongfang Chunlan raised her other hand to block it, but couldn’t withstand the force, as it pressed on her chest, breaking two more ribs.

To ask a mage to compete in strength against a fighter was truly unfair.

Yongfang Chunlan tumbled down from the sky like a battered ball, crashing onto the solid module of Demon King City, leaving a deep pit on the ground.

Affected by the ”Mandala Pollen Bomb” and Gao Yuanyi’s powerful strike, the fallen Yongfang Chunlan was utterly immobilized.

Absorbing the surrounding sudden surge of magic, Lux finally tore open a path in Yang Yu’s thorny jungle, witnessing what Bai Jin and the others were doing.

Yang Yu launched another fierce attack, wielding a black saber, aiming to stop Lux, but enveloped entirely in blackness, Lux knocked Yang Yu several meters away, and quickly ran towards Yongfang Chunlan.

Without hesitation, Gao Yuanyi stretched out his arm, as strange magic lights entwined around Laplace, enhancing it with powerful magic. With flames advancing beneath him, Gao Yuanyi transformed into a giant rocket.
