Their expressions changed drastically. They turned around and wanted to give chase, but suddenly, a dazzling golden light lit up in front of them. The six people could not help but close their eyes at the same time.
Seeing this, Mike hurriedly sped up and quickly increased the distance between him and the six people.

Amelia flew over. She looked at the six people, cursed at them as trash, and continued to give chase.

Mike continued to go deeper. He could already see the outline of the Snowstrom City.

suddenly, a group of crows appeared. A youth stood in front of the Snowstorm City.

Mike sighed. He understood that this youth was the God Thief, He did not believe that there were other youths among the Dark Magi who had such strength.

The youth looked at Mike indifferently. Suddenly, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes. Then, he raised his hand, aimed at Mike, and clenched it.

Seeing this, Mike knew that he would definitely be unable to hide anything today.

Seeing this, High Priest said, “Put me down. I’l hold him off. You think of a way to go in and get reinforcements.”

Mike thought to himself, ‘it’s been so many years since we last met. Why are you still so brave? The opponent is a divine-tier expert. He’s not someone you can challenge.’

Mike shook his head and said, “I have my own ways.”

Mike was already prepared to give up on his disguise and give this Godly Thief a fatal blow. If that was the case, his trip to this Otherworld would not have been in vain. At worst, he could just come again next time.
When Mike’s gaze met with the young man’s, the young man frowned and did not make a move for a long time.

Mike looked at the young man, and for some reason, a familiar feeling appeared in his heart. He looked at the young man and felt as if he had seen him somewhere before.

The two of them passed each other just like that. Neither of them attacked the other.

Amelia, who was a step late, watched Mike fly into the enchantment. She was extremely angry, but she did not dare to anger the youth. She could only lower her head and float in front of the youth.

The youth looked at Amelia and asked, “Do you know what mistake you have made?”

Amelia shook her head.

The youth snorted coldly. His spiritual power was like rippling waves, crashing into Amelia’s body. Amelia grunted and blood flowed out of her seven orifices at the same time.

The youth said, “The mistake you made before was the same as the mistake you made now. You never knew that you had spiritual power. You only knew how to use brute force to suppress others.”

Amelia listened quietly with anger on her face, but she did not dare to flare up. She could only stand there obediently.

The youth looked at Amelia and said, “You may leave.”

Amelia exhaled. She understood that today’s matter was over. She was a little surprised that the youth did not punish her too harshly. She was also surprised that the youth had said so many words today.

Mike came to the boundary and wrapped the High Priest with divine power. He directly melted into it. Without a sound, no one noticed.

High Priest looked at Mike’s method and was stunned.

Mike and the High Priest slowly landed. He let go of the High Priest and said, “Let’s part ways here.”

High Priest was about to say something when Mike turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared.

The High Priest looked at the place where Mike had been standing and frowned. She felt that it was necessary to let the elders know about this.

Mike turned into a puff of green smoke and went straight to the top of the mountain.

Mike came to the Dark Church. The training ground, which used to be full of joy and laughter, had now become an ancestral hall where some people’s tablets were worshipped.

Mike walked in and began to carefully look at the names on the tablets.

“Shirley, Beta, the adjutant of the Lord of Darkness… Elinda!” Mike’s gaze fixed on Linda’s tablet. His hand that was touching Linda’s tablet began to tremble.

“You came back late.” Akari’s voice sounded behind Mike.

Mike turned around and asked, “How did she die?”

Akari shook her head and said, “We don’t know. We just know that the enchantment was suddenly opened one day. Elinda was the first to rush to the enchantment and blocked the enemies who came in. After the chaos, she disappeared.”
“Mike, if you really want to repay me, protect Witch for me.”

Akari walked in front of Mike and only then did Mike come back to his senses. He felt the warmth on his face. He reached out to touch it and realized that his face was already covered in tears.

Akari did not know how to comfort Mike. Fortunately, she passed Mike and let him cry.

He sighed and took out a few new tablets from his interspatial ring and placed them at the bottom.

Mike turned around and looked at the tablets. He asked, “Did these people die to protect Snowstorm City?”

Akari nodded and said, “They are the real heroes. They chose to sacrifice themselves in order to protect us who are still alive.”

Mike sighed and asked, “Dark High Priest…”

Before Mike’s voice fell, Akari suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and knelt on the ground.

Mike quickly walked forward and pulled Akari to the side, carefully examining her body.

“How could this be?”Mike frowned.

Akari’s body was too complicated. There were three waves of energy entangled with each other. One was the power of wind and snow that belonged to Akari. Although it was cold, it was especially gentle to Akari’s body.
There was also the power of wind and snow, but it was extremely violent. It was like a man-eating beast that was running amok in Akari’s body, blocking most of Akari’s bones and causing the other wave of energy to accumulate in front of her heart.
Mike took a closer look. The other wave of energy was left behind by the crow beast outside the barrier.

Mike secretly observed Akari’s current level and was surprised to find that she was already close to the divine-tier.

Mike estimated that if the two other waves of energy were not entangling with each other, Akari could have entered the divine-tier a long time ago. No, in other words, she could still break through to the divine-tier. It was just that the probability of her failing to advance was a little higher.
Mike asked, “What happened to your body?”

Akali grinned and said, “I only blocked it for Teacher for a moment. Unfortunately, Teacher was still ambushed by the people closest to him.”

Mike looked at Akari and realized that there was no hatred in her eyes. There was only endless grief as if she had endured the greatest pain in the world.

Bean-sized tears fell from her eyes. They were frozen into ice beads in mid-air before finally falling to the ground and breaking into several pieces.

Mike looked at Akari and sighed. He sat beside her and asked, “Why didn’t you enter the divine-tier?”

Akari smiled bitterly and said, “You’re also a heaven-tier expert. You should understand that heaven-tier powers can’t do anything to Snowstorm City. If I were to die, what kind of consequences would there be? Snowstorm City can’t bear that. I don’t dare to think about it, but you and I both know the
answer to the question..”
