Beneficial Union: Chasing A Rogue Wife

Chapter 491: Hide and Seek

Zhao Liwei wanted to chase after his mate but held back. He still could not fight within the impurities. So with clenched teeth, he assisted the soldiers from Justice Affairs to gather everyone around and go towards the hole in the boundary spell.

Everyone looked worried. Even though they were on their way to freedom, there was no time to rejoice in victory. They had to escape while others were fighting to keep the others' safety permanent. 

At this time, those who were supposed to rescue Gao Lan Mei and Yen Mingjue were unable to move forward. There were rumbled debris and parts of the house that seemed to have buried her and the huge hound. 

The place where Gao Lan Mei was thrown off was condensed with dangerous energy. Impurities were spiraling like a vortex that gave the feeling of being sucked in. 

It seemed, because of the conflicting magic as well, the aura within it was forming static like a brewing storm. 

Growl!

Wei Jiayi's dragon form tried to step in. "No! Don't! I will do it instead!" Xiao Shi exclaimed. She was a wraith and wouldn't die if something happened. 

Slowly Xiao Shi walked towards the vortex. 

Bang! 

"Miss?! Master?!" Xiao Shi yelled surprised. She was supposed to get closer but suddenly there was an explosion coming from the fallen house. Now she wanted to leap fast towards it, but was unable to do so as the vortex intensified. 

"It is getting stronger!" Sung Zhi Ruo exclaimed. She had already stabbed her sword to the ground to not be absorbed by the vortex. 

With the impurities, as well as the house dust, it was hard to see what was happening. 

They had seen a silhouette. A shadow of a female. 

"Sister Gao? Are you alright?" Sung Zhi Ruo asked concerned. Not only because they knew that Gao Lan Mei was thrown in the same area but because the aura was different and she was afraid that they made a mistake. 

However, it became clear what was the source of the silhouette and this strange and massive power. It was Gao Lan Mei. 

This time Gao Lan Mei seemed a lot more different. The power radiating off of her was unfathomable to say the least. Her eyes could not be seen, in fact, there was only darkness, where her eyes should have been.

Her red irises that were supposed to show that she was a part of the race called 'Keepers' were no more visible. The veins in her body turned black and seemed as if they were going to pop out.

Gao Lan Mei's right arm, that had torn sleeves were black and glistering as if it was bleeding, but no blood was dripping from it. She seemed to have turned into a being, far more different than what she was.

Gazing blankly at them, Gao Lan Mei let out an earth shattering scream.

Yaaaa..aaa! Aaaa!

With a burst of concentrated energy that radiated out of her body, she shook everything up. The boundary spell that had been around the Shizi Empire for years, shattered  into pieces around them.

It was done. Finally the boundary spell had been broken, but she suddenly vanished from her original spot.

Mount Hua

"Cough!" Fa Liwei coughed blood as he received the impact of the spell  completely broken.

On top of it, the current magic he was performing required a lot of concentration, and was taking a toll on him, the shattering of the boundary spell had definitely damaged some internal organs.

"Someone's coming!" Li Huan screamed, alarmed when she felt two beings with sinister magic like them were closely approaching, fast. 

Boom!

Just as she  prepared to run towards the attacker, a burst of magical energy was already sent  her way.

"Aha! Found you!" The voice of the female was deeply sinister like they were having a hide and seek game. 

Boom!

A beam of magic light  knocked Li Huan to the ground. Rattled, Li Huan screamed at Fa Liwei and Fa Yuan. They were not even able to see who had spoken earlier. 

"I will take care of this. Do not stop!" She said almost furiously.  At this time, Fa Liwei had his eyes closed as he continued to chant constantly in front of the goblin statue. 

Fa Yuan was more distracted, as he kept a hold of the magic that Fa Liwei was sending  his way. 

"Really? I don't think I am willing to play with you." The new arrival said mockingly with a chuckle. 

Li Huan hissed and demanded, "Show yourself!" They were fighting someone who was able to hide in the shadows and stay within Li Huan's magic range as well. 

Buzz!

"Fight me instead!" Li Huan screamed as she defended another attack that was supposed to hit Fa Liwei and Fa Yuan. The attack was fast but she was able to see on time, where it came from.   

Bam!

Flare!

Li Huan returned the hit. She did not care anymore who she was fighting as long as she was able to return the shot with full force.  

However, within a split second, another one of the magic beams managed to hit Fa Yuan  sending him a few feet back from where he had been sitting earlier.

"Sorry I can't let you guys continue." the being said within the shadows. 

"Justice Affairs!" Fa Yuan screamed in distaste. "Don't you have other things to do?" 

"Do not stop even if you die!" Fa Liwei screamed with his eyes closed and returned to his chants like it was the only right thing to do. 

"Do not ignore me!" Ma Wang Shu snarled. Because of annoyance, she missed to protect herself from the blast of a beam of the dark magic at her from the back,  making her plummet to the ground hard.
