Chapter 129 129
Tenku saw Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin coming in their combat gear. They looked amazing in that outfit.
Wang Ruyue wore combat gear with a combination of white, silver, black, and gold, making her look attractive. She was not wearing heavy armor but a battle suit made of quality leather with a solid defense that perfectly suited her body. Wang Ruyue held a Phantasmal Object in the form of a silver sword in her right hand.
Name: Lunar Sword
Grade : A-Rank
Next to Wang Ruyue, Huang Yuxin was wearing a red and gold battle suit of similar material, which made her look even hotter and alluring.
Name: Blazing Fan
Grade : A-Rank
If Setsuka gave off a cold and sacred impression in her combat gear, the two girls looked elegant and heroic. Even though they wore bandages on various parts of their bodies, it didn't hide their charms at all.
Those three girls are beauties that all men will fall in love with when they see them in those outfits, including Tenku. He silently enjoyed the sight, but a voice from behind brought him back to his senses. f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶
"What are you doing? Are you not going to attack the drakes?" Wang Haotian appeared and asked. Tenku wasn't surprised when he saw that old man appear suddenly because he was used to it.
"No wonder they could be here. It turns out you brought them. Are you deliberately following me?" Tenku said without looking at Wang Haotian. Even though it was impolite for a disciple to do to his master, Wang Haotian didn't mind it because he was the one who asked Tenku to be more casual towards him. After all, Tenku was currently focusing on watching Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue attack a Drake from a distance.
"I have no intention of following you. But the two girls said that they wanted to fight together with you. So I checked your position from the GPS and found you in this valley. Of course, I must go with them because I have to take care of my granddaughter and her friend." Wang Haotian replied helplessly. After that, he told Tenku what had happened.
The cultivators of the four major families and the Jin family had assigned their elders and disciples the task of dealing with the monsters in Badaling National Forest Park. Wang Haotian also received an assignment from Wang Hongli, but he turned it down because he had already encountered monsters in other areas. Of course, that was just an excuse to refuse.
Originally Wang Haotian wanted the two girls to deal with the monsters around the martial arts competition area because it would be easy to watch them out in the open and only the Lone Wolf roaming the place. Even with their injured bodies, it would be easy to kill low-level monsters. But the two girls insisted on going to Tenku's place and fighting alongside him.
Wang Haotian reluctantly had to agree to their request after they kept pushing him. But after arriving at Tenku's place, they were surprised to see several drakes there. Wang Haotian should have guessed that Tenku would only target high-level monsters.
"I see. It will be easy for you to protect them there since it is an open area. But isn't there any difference here? Especially after the drakes destroyed the surroundings. Can't you see that this area has turned into an open area? Now it will be easier for you to keep an eye on them." Tenku nodded slightly like he knew what Wang Haotian was thinking.
"You are right. But how long are you going to stay here? Are you just going to watch the two girls fight fourth-level monsters?" Wang Haotian asked.
"It's not that I didn't want to act, but their appearance interfered with my plans. Originally I wanted to sneak up on the Drakes and use my scythe to kill them all in one hit. But the attacks from the two girls made the monsters alert." Tenku sighed, and there was a hint of complaint in his voice.
He couldn't blame Wang Haotian and the two girls completely because they had no idea what he was about to do. But Tenku couldn't use that plan now because he couldn't show the Devourer Scythe in front of Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue.
"Ahaha... I'm sorry. I didn't know you had such a plan. I will prevent them from attacking the Drake if I know. But it would be best if you act now. Otherwise, they would be in danger." Wang Haotian pointed at Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin. Fortunately, the other Drakes kept quiet and didn't attack the two girls.
"Then what are you going to do? Shouldn't it be your job to protect them?" Tenku frowned when he heard his master's words.
"I'm just watching; the one who will protect them is you." Wang Haotian chuckled, and his figure suddenly disappeared.
"I knew it would end like this if he brought them here. I don't know what that geezer wants by doing that." Tenku sighed when he saw Wang Haotian's behavior. Even though he complained, Tenku would protect the two girls without his master asking him to. He couldn't let Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue get hurt.
Tenku loaded Golden Revolver with third-level monster cores. After that, he aimed the gun at the Drake that was attacking the two girls. Tenku pulled the trigger and fired the bullets consecutively in a straight line.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Roaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Tenku's attack penetrated Drake's head and killed the monster instantly. If only one bullet were fired, then the Drake wouldn't die easily because of its hard scales. But Tenku gave consecutive attacks in a single straight line at Drake's vital points. Because of that, the destructive power of the bullets became many times more severe.
Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin were confused by what had happened before them. But they quickly realized that someone had helped them, and the two girls could only think of Tenku in their heads because the attack that killed the monster came from a bullet. They remembered that Tenku's Phantasmal Object was a gun.
Roaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
After the monster died, the other Drakes roared angrily and charged at the two girls. They thought that Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue were the ones who had killed their flock. Tenku had no choice but to come out of his hiding place and fight with them. He jumped into the air and landed not far from the two girls.
"Tenku!"
"Tenku!"
Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin shouted his name after noticing his appearance.
"Follow me! We can't fight them at the same time! We should retreat for now and come up with a plan!" Tenku said to the two girls and ran towards the hills with many trees.
Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue didn't ask much and quickly obeyed his orders. They ran, following Tenku from behind.
Roaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The Drakes roared again when they saw their target running away from them. The monsters sped up their footsteps to catch up to the three people and created vibrations around the area.
"Through this way!" Tenku suddenly turned left and entered a large hole that looked like a cave entrance. Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin followed suit and finally escaped the drakes' pursuit.
"Are you okay fighting in that condition?" Tenku asked with concern when he noticed their condition. He was worried when he saw Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue sweating profusely and breathing heavily after running. Moreover, they do it in a state where their bodies are injured.
"I'm fine. I'm just a little tired from running too fast." Wang Ruyue replied and smiled.
"I am the same as her. We'll be fine after resting a bit." Huang Yuxian said in a weak voice.
"Are you sure? Your faces look pale now. If you don't feel well, then you better stay in this place for a while. After I kill those monsters, we can return to the competition area together." Tenku repeated his question to confirm their condition. He felt that Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue's situation was not as good as they said.
Tenku didn't want anything bad to happen to the two girls because they forced themselves and would hinder the fight with the drakes. He couldn't protect Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue in battle because he had to focus on fighting those monsters. If he could use the Devourer Scythe, then Tenku could kill the Drakes in no time. Unfortunately, he couldn't manifest it in front of them.
"We're okay. You don't have to worry about us. Our condition will return to normal after we rest for a while. So don't fight the Drakes alone because it's dangerous! After all, they were Fourth-level monsters, and quite a few of them. Therefore, we must fight them together!" Wang Ruyue said stubbornly, and Huang Yuxin nodded in agreement with her statement.
"I understand. Then, we will rest here for a while. I noticed that some of the Drakes went east because they might think that we fled in that direction, but the rest of them are still around here looking for us. This is a good chance to kill those monsters.
But before that, can you tell me your Realizer phases so I can devise the best plan against the Drakes?" Tenku spoke to Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue while checking the situation outside by peeking from the cave entrance.
"Of course. I am currently in the meteor phase." Wang Ruyue quickly replied.
"I am also in the same phase as Ruyue." Huang Yuxin added.
"Hmm..." Tenku pondered after hearing their answers.
(Their strength is more or less the same as Setsuka. If they were in the meteor phase now, their combat power would be at least two and a half stars. But if the two girls used their cultivation bases simultaneously, it would skyrocket to three and a half stars or the equivalent of a cultivator in the Sky Origin realm. Moreover, their strength would still increase after using the abilities of their Phantasmal Objects. I think there's no problem if they fight a fourth-level monster)
Tenku rubbed her chin and thought of a proper plan to fight against the drakes according to Huang Yuxin and Wang Ruyue's power.
"Okay. We will fight the drakes now. But please don't hold back your strength. After exiting this cave, you can immediately release your Phantasmal Object abilities." Tenku said seriously.
"We understand!" Huang Ruyue and Wang Yuxin answered in unison and completely believed Tenku's words. He must have made the best plan for them and wouldn't do something that would harm them.
"Then let's go out and kill the drakes." Tenku tapped them gently on the shoulder and walked out of the cave.
The two girls looked at each other and smiled at his action. After that, they followed closely behind him. Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin were excited because it was their first time fighting side by side with Tenku.
