Chapter 558: Chapter 558: You Think You Can Kill Me With This?

"Senior Sister Yao, save me, I can’t hold on much longer."

Just as Yao Qinghe led the female disciples of the Divine Flame Sect closer to the Explosive Dragon Killing Formation, Xu Jiaojiao, from a distance, began to call for help.

At that moment, three skeletons were attacking Xu Jiaojiao, who had already sustained injuries, and her condition appeared to be quite serious. Without help, she might lose her life under the onslaught of those three skeletons.

Yao Qinghe, witnessing Xu Jiaojiao’s dire plight, was hesitant about whether to lend assistance or not.

Driven by personal sentiments, remembering Xu Jiaojiao’s deeds towards her within the Divine Flame Sect, Yao Qinghe did not wish to save her.

But as the senior sister of the Divine Flame Sect, the thought of not coming to the aid of someone in mortal peril made her feel uneasy.

"Senior Sister, don’t go save her. This despicable woman has brought this on herself,"

Seeing Yao Qinghe’s indecision, some female disciples from within the Formation immediately shouted out.

"Senior Sister, please save me. I admit, what I did in the past was wrong, and after this, I will surely seek your forgiveness."

Xu Jiaojiao, seeing that Yao Qinghe showed no intention of coming to her rescue, immediately shouted loudly.

Hearing Xu Jiaojiao’s plea, Yao Qinghe finally took action and flew towards Xu Jiaojiao.

"Junior Sister, hurry and come with me."

Upon reaching Xu Jiaojiao, Yao Qinghe swung out a strong burst of Spiritual Power to draw the attention of the skeletons, then quickly flew to Xu Jiaojiao’s side, grabbing her hand and preparing to leave the area.

Ssshhh—

However, just as Yao Qinghe took Xu Jiaojiao’s hand to lead her away, Xu Jiaojiao grasped her hand, quickly moved closer, and a dagger appeared in Xu Jiaojiao’s hand, which she then plunged into Yao Qinghe’s back from behind.

"You... you vile creature..."

Feeling the sting in her back, Yao Qinghe’s heart was filled with regret, but it was too late. She could only blame herself for trying to save Xu Jiaojiao.

Gripping the sword in her hand, Yao Qinghe immediately turned to strike, but Xu Jiaojiao sent her flying with a palm strike.

"Haha, I never anticipated you to be so selflessly charitable, Senior Sister. Even after all I’ve done to you, you still came to rescue me. I’m almost moved to tears!"

Xu Jiaojiao deftly dodged the skeletons’ attacks with a swift leap. It turned out that her inability to defend against the skeletons’ assault was all an act, even the wounds on her body were intentionally caused by the skeletons.

To garner Yao Qinghe’s trust, this woman was even willing to injure herself.

"Why?!"

"We had no grudge, no hatred. Why did you insist on putting me to death?"

Yao Qinghe’s gaze fell on Xu Jiaojiao, completely at a loss as to why Xu Jiaojiao would treat her in such a way.

"Why? Haha, what a question. In what way am I inferior to you? Back in the Divine Flame Sect, all the men and the Elders of the Sect’s Peak Masters would gravitate around you."

"And now, you even managed to ingratiate yourself with that man. Why should you be the one to have all the good fortune?"

Xu Jiaojiao’s eyes were filled with boundless, icy murderous intent as she looked at Yao Qinghe and roared loudly.

Upon hearing these words, Yao Qinghe fell silent, realizing this woman had always harbored hostility towards her because of these reasons—because of jealousy. It seemed Xu Jiaojiao was truly beyond redemption.

"Lin Chen, Lin Chen, please save my senior sister!"

Yu Weilian and the other female disciples of the Divine Flame Sect, upon witnessing Xu Jiaojiao’s ungrateful actions, immediately started shouting toward the center of the lake.

At that moment, Lin Chen was happily destroying the skeleton frames.

It was a joke to him, as destroying each one not only allowed him to obtain the magic artifact materials they held but also to turn them all into materials.

Most importantly, with Lin Chen’s formidable strength, these skeleton frames were simply incapable of posing any threat to him.

Given time, Lin Chen was sure to deal with all of these skeleton frames.

So at that moment, Lin Chen’s actions were no different from picking up money off the ground.

As for Yu Weilian and the others, with Lin Chen’s Explosive Dragon Killing Formation and fierce tiger puppets in place, he wasn’t worried about them being in danger at all.

However, just as Lin Chen was enjoying the destruction of the skeleton frames, a cry for help suddenly came from behind him.

Lin Chen turned around to look and saw that it was Yu Weilian calling out to him.

After listening closely, Lin Chen realized that Yao Qinghe was in trouble.

At this moment, Yao Qinghe was in front of Ning Yuanxuan, Xu Jiaojiao, and others, with three skeleton frames locking onto the injured Yao Qinghe and attacking her at once.

With the situation progressing like this, Yao Qinghe was likely to be in danger.

Lin Chen frowned slightly, inwardly cursing that this woman really knew how to make trouble. Hadn’t he told her to stay inside the Explosive Dragon Killing Formation?

But now wasn’t the time to think about that; saving Yao Qinghe was the priority.

Immediately, Lin Chen ignited a talisman inscription in his hand, and in an instant, his figure disappeared from the center of the lake, causing numerous skeleton frames to miss their attacks.

Although Ning Yuanxuan and the others were beside the lake, they were nearly four to five miles away from the center.

However, for Lin Chen, this distance was covered in an instant, and he appeared right in front of Yao Qinghe, causing Ning Yuanxuan’s eyes to light up, immediately realizing that Lin Chen possessed a treasure that allowed him to teleport.

Once Lin Chen appeared, Ning Yuanxuan and the martial artists from the Bodhi Hall immediately joined forces to attack him.

At that moment, the biggest threat was Lin Chen, so Ning Yuanxuan had previously come up with a good strategy: to use Yao Qinghe as bait to lure Lin Chen over, then gang up on him to kill him.

Seeing Ning Yuanxuan and the others attacking her, Yao Qinghe’s expression changed drastically. She never imagined that they would use her as bait to draw Lin Chen in.

"You think you can kill me with this?"

However, just as everyone’s attacks were falling, a smile appeared on the corner of Lin Chen’s mouth, and he immediately disappeared from the spot with Yao Qinghe in his embrace.

Whoosh—

In an instant, Lin Chen appeared inside the Explosive Dragon Killing Formation with Yao Qinghe.

"Senior sister..."

As everyone watched Lin Chen save Yao Qinghe, they immediately crowded around, their tones tinged with crying.
