The tidal wave of flames almost burned the grass to the ground.
After a long while, the flame slowly dissipated, revealing what was going on beneath.
Jin Hai lay motionlessly on the ground. He was charred from head to toe. If his chest hadn’t been heaving, anyone would have thought that he was dead.
“The superior-grade enchanted armament is amazing! He’s still alive!”
Lin Shen looked surprised.
The clone walked up to Jin Hai with a talisman sword.
Jin Hai’s eyes flickered. He wanted to say something, but before he could speak, the clone had pierced his throat.
It didn’t give him any chance at all!
The light in Jin Hai’s eyes soon faded, and he was no longer alive.
After making sure that Jin Hai was dead, Lin Shen let out a breath of relief.
The Bright Aperture Stage was as tough as it should be. Even though the apothecary was only a Bright Aperture Stage that wasn’t good at fighting, he still almost killed Lin Shen.
If Jing Hai had three more, no, two more sword talismans, Lin Shen would be the one lying on the ground.
Even if they won in the end, Lin Shen would have to pay a high price.
After the cat general died, he could only be summoned again after a month.
With all five of them severely injured, it would take them a while to recover.
“I hope my rewards are worth it.”
Lin Shen quickly searched the body and found a storage ring.
“A storage ring! That’s great!”
The storage ring was a middle-grade enchanted armament, and it was much more spacious than an inferior-grade one. The Merit Hall sold it for seven minor merits.
Lin Shen happily opened the ring and saw a lot of things inside.
There were daily necessities, spirit coins, rare and precious herbs, talismans, bottles, and cans… There were so many of them that it was dazzling.
Considering that they were still in the enemy’s territory, Lin Shen didn’t know if other Bright Aperture enemies would show up. In the end, he gave up on the idea of counting the spoils of war and put away his storage ring. He would take his time to do it when he got back.
He then took the Cloud Suppression Rob off Jin Hai’s body.
The formidable power of the enchanted arm had been demonstrated in this battle.
Had it not been for the Cloud Suppression Rob, it would have been much easier for Lin Shen to kill Jin Hai.
That was how effective an enchanted arm could be in improving a cultivator’s survival ability.
Unfortunately, Cloud Suppression Rob had been severely injured in the battle and wouldn’t recover without a few months of nourishment with spiritual essence.
Despite that, Lin Shen was still very happy.
Once the Cloud Suppression Robe recovered its energy, with this formidable defensive enchanted arm, Lin Shen would be able to survive much more difficult battles.
“With the addition of the superior-grade enchanted armament and the Forbidden Golden Armor, only a handful of people below the Bright Aperture Stage can injure me!”
After waking up from his rejoicing, Lin Shen put away the Cloud Suppression Robe, left the scene without hesitation, and headed for the front gate of the manor.
About half an hour after Lin Shen left, a figure suddenly showed up.
It was none other than the man in the black robe.
Looking around the devastated courtyard, he finally saw Jin Hai’s dead body in the center of the charred ground. He clenched his fists.
A moment later, he bellowed and flicked his sleeve. With a rumble, a streak of lightning covered a distance of over loom and struck a thick poplar tree on the other side!
In a matter of seconds, the tree was charred to a crisp!
Lin Shen didn’t stop after he left the manor. He headed straight for the rendezvous point.
However, he was only halfway there when he saw Tang Yue and Tang Ying rushing toward him with a team of cat demons.
The cat demons were pleasantly surprised when they saw Lin Shen.
“Master Lin Shen! Are you alright?”
Tang Ying quickly ran up to Lin Shen and looked him up and down. Seeing that he only looked a little disheveled and didn’t seem injured, she let out a breath of relief.
“I heard from Tang Yue that you ran into a Bright Aperture cultivator, and I was going to help you!”
If even Lin Shen wasn’t the enemy’s match, with the cats’ capability, they would only be tempting fate.
However, the look on Tang Ying’s face was very serious when she said those words.
The other cat demons looked equally ready to face their fate.
Lin Shen couldn’t help but feel touched.
As a member of the demon race, these cat demons valued friendship more than many other humans.
It made sense. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have found a force like the Sinking Moon.
Lin Shen waved at Tang Ying with a smile.
“Don’t worry. I’m fine.
“Where are the spirit cats we’ve saved?”
Tang Ying immediately said, “I’ve put them in a safe place!”
Lin Shen nodded and said, “This isn’t the place to talk. Let’s go back first.”
The cat demons left Lin Shen right away.
Now that their goal had been achieved, Lin Shen and the other cat demons naturally wouldn’t stay in Silvcrscale City for much longer. They decided to leave that very night and go back to Dragonside City.
They could walk through the city gate in broad daylight, but it wasn’t easy to do that when they had twenty or so spirit cats.
Luckily, the city wall had a lot of loopholes, and the spirit cats were good at illusions. After some effort, they were finally able to leave Silvcrscale City before sunrise.
With the token from the cat general, it was much easier to go back to Dragonside City.
Lin Shen didn’t go with the cat demons. Instead, he went straight back to his villa in the Eastern District.
It was early in the morning when he got back, and the sun was shining brightly outside..
