Not Knowing the Highness of Heaven and the Thickness of Earth

Having led the shadow on a wild goose chase, Linlin sensed something was amiss.

“You’re so blatant; aren’t you afraid the Silver Codex will wipe us out in one fell swoop?” As she spoke, Linlin nimbly leaped over a high wall.

“Heh!” the shadow sneered, crashing straight through, leaving a human-shaped hole,

“The Pursuit Court exists to kill demons like you!”

Linlin felt a headache coming on.

If it had been someone from the demon side, Linlin could have bet they would be wary of harming innocents.

But since it was someone from the Silver Codex, her threat was somewhat laughable.

‘No! That’s not right! How could the Silver Codex be so obsessed with the essence?’

Linlin instantly realized something was wrong.

Especially the Pursuit Court; they always followed the principle of “rather catch the wrong one than let one go,” so how could they be so focused on a bottle of essence and let Xiao Lin, a demon, go uncaptured?

He seemed very concerned about the essence; its importance even surpassed capturing demons.

After thinking for a while, Linlin had a terrifying idea.

The Solitary Mourner must have had a trade partner when he tried so hard to send in the essence.

This black-clad man’s intentions were too obvious, directly targeting the essence with a strong purpose.

It was very likely that the trade partner was afraid of exposing themselves through the essence, so they sent someone to dispose of the evidence.

This was normal, but what was not normal was, why could they command a hunter from the Pursuit Court?

Were the higher-ups of the Pursuit Court trading with demons? This was utterly ridiculous.

But in any case, Linlin’s primary task was to shake off this nuisance.

It was dangerous and dangerous; she was almost caught several times.

But fortunately, she finally arrived at the pre-arranged location without any mishaps.

It was a small square.

Linlin suddenly slowed down, stopped in place, turned around, held the essence in her hand, and provoked the shadow.

If something was abnormal, there must be a demon, but the shadow couldn’t care less.

He had originally thought he could easily resolve this, but he had been led around like a dog for such a long time, even a clay figure had some anger.

He planned to ignore any traps and snatch the essence back first.

Swoosh!

A streak of crimson light streaked across the night sky.

The shadow hastily dodged.

A red sword separated Linlin and the shadow.

A figure slowly emerged from the tower behind the small square.

The light of the six rainbow swords formed a hexagram, locking the small square in place.

“You have nowhere to escape!” Xiao Lin said arrogantly, “Now, I am the hunter.”

Xiao Lin knew that the more arrogant she was now, the better the bluffing effect would be.

“Heh, annoying ant,” the shadow said impatiently.

“Heh! Idiot,” Xiao Lin retorted, also sneering, “You have eyes but can’t see Mount Tai; this is the famous Seven-Star Light Array. Only a saint can break it.”

The shadow didn’t know what Mount Tai was, but he knew that Xiao Lin was mocking him.

In anger, he no longer hesitated to observe and planned to snatch it by force.

“Heh, seeking death?” Xiao Lin instantly threw out a blood-red bead.

The blood-red bead overflowed with a thick aura of blood, connecting with the hexagram centered on the red sword, or rather, the Seven-Star Light Array, anyway, it was improvised, so it could be called anything.

The light was overflowing, and in an instant, the dual superposition of the blood-red bead and the red sword instantly dyed the sky red.

It was as if there was an extra blood-colored sun in this world.

Linlin was a little shocked; with full activation, the special effects were really amazing! So scary.

At least the shadow was really scared and hastily escaped to outside the range.

“Catch!” Taking this opportunity, Linlin threw the essence to Xiao Lin.

The two were perfectly in sync, without any hesitation, they fled in completely opposite directions.

With full activation, the energy of the blood-red bead and the rainbow swords was consumed quickly, and the special effects quickly disappeared.

The shadow instantly realized he had been tricked and was furious, his eyes bloodshot.

“Pfft!” He spat out a mouthful of blood, seemingly activating a secret technique.

His speed suddenly increased, and he rapidly chased after Linlin.

This time, even the advantage of the terrain was useless. Under sheer speed, Linlin couldn’t escape at all.

Helpless, she stopped and turned around.

Linlin spread out her hands, indicating that she had nothing, “I threw it to her; why are you chasing me?”

The shadow’s blood pressure rose again.

But he didn’t kill Linlin to vent his anger; instead, he raced against the clock to chase after Xiao Lin.

Linlin breathed a sigh of relief; the black-clad man’s increased speed had really startled her.

Fortunately, his goal was the essence.

Otherwise, Linlin would have had to try to activate the backup hidden energy, in short, self-destruct.

Even Linlin was being chased by the shadow at this speed, let alone Xiao Lin.

Even though she had run for a while first, she was still caught up.

“Okay, okay, I give up!”

On the high wall, Xiao Lin raised her hands, revealing the essence, indicating that she surrendered.

“Here, take it!” Xiao Lin threw out the essence, and then her body fell backward.

The shadow subconsciously grabbed the essence.

However, it might have been because he had activated the secret technique.

Bang!

The glass bottle was accidentally crushed by him, and the green liquid flowed from his fingers.

The shadow was shocked, “Not good!”

He tried his best to salvage it, but only a small puddle was left in his hand.

The shadow was silent. Now, what should he do?

He looked at the liquid on the ground and suddenly felt a trace of something wrong.

He quickly held it in his hands, knelt on the ground, leaned forward, and rested his elbows, sticking out his tongue in a rather strange posture to lick the ground.

“Damn it! I’ve been tricked; it’s just a bottle of low level equipment repair fluid,” the shadow stood up, shook off the liquid in his hand, jumped onto the high wall, where there was a trash can.

His eyes swept over, but Xiao Lin had long disappeared.

The shadow felt around, and Xiao Lin’s aura disappeared here, “Damn it, how could this be?”

With a bang, he smashed the wall beside him, revealing the scene of a family’s living room, but he didn’t care at all.

Suddenly, his eyes locked on the trash can below.

He jumped down. This half-person-high trash can could hide people, and he lifted the trash can and dumped all the trash out.

Instantly, a sour smell permeated the air.

The shadow’s expression remained unchanged, and he began to search.

But neither the person nor the essence was there, “Damn it, damn it!”

The shadow stomped the ground to vent his anger.

Suddenly, he seemed to have stepped on something hard.

Looking down, it turned out to be a few small stones, bothering him.

He became even angrier.

“I will tear you apart!” The shadow no longer hesitated, intending to find Linlin by following her aura.

But just as he was about to set off,

“Hey, you over there, stop!” A confident voice filled with anger rang out.

The shadow was puzzled and turned around. It was a handsome blonde woman with golden eyes.

“Mavis? It’s you!” the shadow said with certainty, “I knew there was something wrong with those toys to be causing me problems, so it was you secretly causing trouble!”

Mavis didn’t deny it, but she didn’t admit it either, “You, damaged three thousand six hundred and fifty-nine items belonging to residents. Come with me. You have the right to remain silent.”

“How could there be so many? And you remember so clearly? There’s a limit to lying!” the shadow raged.

Mavis didn’t deny it, she just raised the heavy greatsword that looked like a board and wiped it slightly.

“Oh, I get it; you want to protect those two demons. Heh, I didn’t expect the Great Guardian’s sister to collude with demons,” the shadow tried to bring out Mavis’s second brother.

But Mavis just said impatiently, “Don’t mention that idiot to me again, or I’ll kill you on the spot!”

“Heh, the Great Guardian will be lenient with you, but I won’t.

Today, I will teach this little thief who colludes with demons a lesson for the Great Guardian!”

Perhaps because he had activated a secret technique, the shadow seemed a little irritable, his emotions unstable.

“Stop dawdling; look, you’ve broken people’s walls! As the captain of the city guard patrol team, I have an obligation to arrest you!” If possible, Mavis still wanted the shadow to make the first move.

Because Linlin had said, you can’t bully the weak, but you can use excessive defense.

“Heh, ordinary people boast a few times, and they don’t know how high the sky is or how thick the earth is anymore.

Without the Great Guardian, you, Mavis, are nothing!” The shadow was getting anxious.

Because if Mavis kept delaying him, his chances of finding Linlin would become lower and lower.

No longer hesitating, he attacked brazenly.

Then.

Duang!

Mavis deliberately used the back of her sword to slap him back.

The force was just right, dazed but not brain damaged.

‘Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?’ The shadow’s brain short-circuited for a moment.

“Who did you say didn’t know how high the sky is?”

Duang!

“Who did you say didn’t know how thick the earth is?”

Duang!

“Little waste! Why aren’t you shouting?”

Duang!

……

“Enough!” The bruised and swollen shadow quickly created distance, raging, “You forced me!”

He stretched out his dry hands, and the twisted concentric circles on the palms and backs of his hands fell off, turning into strange lines that strangled Mavis.

The twisted abstract symbols on his clothes also refused to be outdone.

As if they had gained spirituality, they jumped down and ran towards Mavis.

The scene was truly eerie.

But Mavis just watched with interest, then, she slapped with the greatsword.

The symbols and lines disappeared as if they had been erased, completely disappearing.

The shadow’s eyes, which had been covered by anger, instantly cleared up, and he blinked.

“Attacking the patrol team captain, a double crime!” Mavis smiled.

The shadow suddenly remembered an event from four years ago.

It was said that the Great Guardian and his sister had a dispute and had a big fight, and Mavis directly demolished the Great Guardian’s house.

Everyone in the Silver Codex originally thought that the Great Guardian was just being tolerant of his sister.

But now, the shadow vaguely felt that it might not have been the Great Guardian who was soft-hearted.

Who could tell him, why could demon curses be easily shattered?

Was this thing a destructible entity?
