I Became a Witch in a World Full of Urban Legends

No danger?

Is that really true? In the silence, this thought surfaced in Bai Kai’s mind.

Just as Lu Yibei said, he knew Lu Yibei very well.

This child has been a handful since she was little...

However, before he could ponder further, a violent air explosion sounded behind him. Immediately after, his spiritual sense detected Shaman King’s Spiritual Energy fluctuations, closing in behind him. The distance was rapidly shrinking, and the speed was astonishing.

Turning his head sharply, he saw Shaman King shooting towards him like a cannonball leaving its barrel.

Watching Shaman King’s figure rapidly enlarge in their vision, Bai Kai and Lu Yibei were both inwardly horrified.

No, why did this guy suddenly get so fast?

“Shui Ge, didn’t you say we absolutely wouldn’t be caught?” Lu Yibei exclaimed, “If it really comes down to it, should we drive a car? To be honest, I’ve recently mastered a special skill to summon a big truck.”

You said you’d help stall for time so I could prepare my ultimate move, but I haven’t even started channeling, and the enemy has already caught up?

Can you do this, Shui Ge?!

“...” Bai Kai opened his mouth, then hesitated.

He didn’t know how to explain to Lu Yibei that Shaman King’s sudden acceleration also baffled him.

Logically speaking, for nearly two decades, he had allocated almost all his “skill points” to speed. Now, with Lord Bing’s help, he had gained a power boost infinitely close to Calamity-level. The number of people and urban legend in the world who could catch up to him totaled no more than three.

However, just as Bai Kai’s thoughts raced and he secretly organized his words, Shaman King was already within arm’s reach.’

Right behind him, five meters, three meters, one meter.

Three meters, five meters...

Bai Kai, Lu Yibei, “???”

What the heck? What’s going on? Did this big bro go too fast and couldn’t brake, flying past us?

————

“Is this Lord Huaiyuan in her berserk state? To be able to do this much.” Void couldn’t help but exclaim.* fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Seeing Lord Huaiyuan use unimaginable brute force to throw two small mountains at Shaman King, then, using the cover of the roaring mountains, she took advantage of Shaman King’s full effort to break through the mountains, closing in on him. She then unleashed a storm of punches and kicks, directly sending Shaman King flying. It couldn’t help but feel a little unnerved.

What does it mean to overcome ten techniques with one force? This is what it means to overcome ten techniques with one force!’

With those few solid punches, Shaman King’s entire chest was twisted and deformed, undulating like a foot massage mat.

Void was least adept at dealing with power-type fighters like Lord Huaiyuan.

She wouldn’t reason with you at all. Any problem would be solved with her powerful, heavy fists, comparable to projected space-based weapons.

From this, it was clear that when Lord Huaiyuan interrogated that giant in Divine Kingdom Jade Gate, she had no murderous intent at all, and held back a lot.

However...

“However, isn’t her state a bit abnormal? Why is she hitting Shaman King in the direction Disaster and the others fled?”

Hearing this, Nameless Book glanced at the plump little bug on her shoulder and calmly analyzed, “Firstly, she very likely intends to hit Disaster as well. Secondly, if she could perfectly control her power, she wouldn’t be jokingly called the weakest Guardian...”

“Finally, why are you here? Shouldn’t you be helping?”

“Hehe.” Void chuckled twice, “Sister knows that this avatar of mine has no combat power. I’d only be a hindrance if I went.”

“But Sister, why are you standing by idly here? They seem to be your colleagues, right? Is there some conflict between colleagues?”

“Same.” Nameless Book said indifferently.

Same as an avatar, same with no combat power, then...

Let’s just watch together, and don’t ask too many questions!

————

After brushing past Disaster, Shaman King’s body continued to fly backward, shattering an unknown amount of earth and stone.

His internal Spiritual Energy was chaotic and turbulent.

Aside from not being proficient in Spell, from a certain perspective, he could be considered a perfect five-sided warrior. Before meeting Lord Huaiyuan, he had never seen a Psychic or urban legend whose power could completely suppress him, and who could gain an advantage over him in close combat simply through brute force.

A strong sense of excitement surged within him, facing a powerful enemy from a thousand years later.

It was several times more exciting than when he fought Dragon Xiang back then!

The pain of twisted and broken bones made his nerves, Spiritual Energy, and the core of his urban legend body cheer.

If not for the guidance of that supreme will, which required him to kill Disaster and gain the opportunity to fulfill his long-held wish, he would surely have fought that woman to the death.

A few breaths later, as his backward momentum gradually ceased, Shaman King leaped into the air, soaring high with surging crimson flames. He scanned his surroundings, searching for the traces of Disaster and the white figure.

Just then, a horn sounded in the distance.

Black mist, exuding a dense aura of death, continuously emerged around him, stirring up waves of chilling killing intent. Following this, phantom-like giant warships broke through the waves.

Shaman King looked up, his gaze falling upon those monstrous behemoths, his eyes trembling slightly.

On those never-before-seen behemoths, he sensed an extremely familiar aura, as if it originated from the same source as him.

It was the aura of war, death, and destruction.

Is this the scene of war a thousand years later? Shaman King thought.

He had originally only wanted to regain the opportunity to fulfill his long-held wish, but now, having witnessed a formidable enemy like Lord Huaiyuan, and the projections of the invincible fleet summoned by Lord Bing’s authority, he suddenly began to like this era.

Therefore, he must be the victor of this battle, he must live, he must kill his kin, and seize the opportunity granted by that will!

Thinking this, his thoughts gradually turned frantic. He stomped his feet fiercely in the air, intending to accelerate and escape the deathly shadow cast by countless warships.

Just then, light entered his vision.

At first, it was just two points of light, one azure and one purple, like stars.

Then, those two points of light pulsed violently, expanding rapidly as if stretching their bodies, spreading downwards and dancing, accompanied by a distant and mighty dragon’s roar.

Amidst the earth-shaking dragon’s roar, two tyrannical streams of light descended from the sky, like two arms, firmly restricting Shaman King in place.

The two streams of light were one strong and one weak, one gentle and one rigid, just like their vaguely visible controllers, one old and one young, one male and one female.

The next moment, pale papers whizzed by, like a flock of white doves, circling and stirring up a storm, then quietly fading away, weaving an invisible barrier.

Within the barrier, surging streams of light, howling winds, flying yellow sand... in an instant, they froze as if a pause button had been pressed.

At the same time, above the sky, countless warships advanced with a rumble. Dozens of grappling hooks shot out, piercing into Shaman King’s body, pulling violently, as if to tear him into countless pieces, and then drag those pieces onto the death-like warships.

The muzzles of the cannons on the ships suddenly trembled, roaring loudly. Enveloped in dazzling light, it seemed as if only fire and death remained before their eyes.

A few breaths later, as the illusion created by the gunfire gradually dissipated, countless shadowy undead appeared from the ships, gathering together, wielding swords and firearms, and surging towards Shaman King on a tumultuous wave of death, engulfing his figure in the blink of an eye...

In an instant, the entire wasteland seemed to fall into deadly silence.

————

Lu Yibei lay on Bai Kai’s back, secretly observing the people fighting Shaman King, while accumulating the fatal blow she had prepared for Shaman King.

Seeing everyone suppressing Shaman King, clearly intending to beat him senseless, Lu Yibei was secretly pleased.

Although everyone’s raw strength was slightly weaker than Shaman King’s, they were not unable to pose a threat to him. The highly concentrated attacks put Shaman King in a dilemma, forcing him into passive defense, with even counterattacks being very difficult.

It felt like a fierce tiger being hunted by a pack of wolves.

For a moment, she even thought that if she just waited a little longer, Shaman King would regretfully die under everyone’s righteous group beating.

The previous use of the miracle flower’s corrective power had already significantly affected her. If possible, she really didn’t want to risk touching that extremely dangerous power again.

At this ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) moment, after being brutally beaten by Shaman King, she had sustained a huge amount of injuries.

As one diminished and the other grew, the danger factor surged!

Friendly reminder: The Website is about to be revised, which may cause loss of reading progress. Please save your “book shelf” and “reading record” in time (screenshot recommended). We apologize for any inconvenience caused!

However, things did not go as planned.

Soon, she heard a chilling, eerie laugh ring out.

“Ha, hahaha, what a wonderful era, this venerable one likes it!”

That was Shaman King’s laughter.

Accompanied by laughter, the undead summoned by Lord Bing's authority continuously disintegrated and fell apart, while Shaman King's figure, like a warrior shedding heavy, cumbersome armor and charging fearlessly into a final battle, burst forth from the shattered gaps between the swarms of undead, dragging his scarred and broken body straight towards Nanling Yaohua.

The fierce tiger, hunted by a pack of wolves, erupted with ferocity under the stimulation of pain and blood, awakening from its daze and realizing that facing the wolf pack, only by defeating them one by one could it hope to escape.

Shen Baiwei's authority, interwoven into a time barrier, was instantly shattered by a surge of bloody light. Shaman King closed in on Nanling Yaohua in an instant, and with his remaining arm, unleashed a powerful punch.

A full-force strike, without mercy or reservation!

The air boomed, and countless streaks of bloody light whistled from his charred fist.

Seeing this, Nanling Yaohua instinctively raised her green bamboo sword to meet the attack, but Nanling Qifeng pushed her aside.

In an instant, the two figures collided violently several times, then flew in opposite directions amidst a roar.

Having failed in one strike, Shaman King did not continue to entangle, immediately retreated, then changed his target, and flew towards Shen Baiwei...

Watching Shaman King weave through the crowd, fighting and retreating, constantly moving, deliberately avoiding Lord Huaiyuan, who was difficult to face head-on, causing dangerous situations, Lu Yibei's heart pounded wildly.

She wondered if it was her imagination, but she felt that under the encirclement of the crowd, as Shaman King's flesh and blood disintegrated, his strength was not weakened; instead, it was quietly growing stronger. Dragging a skeletal frame, riddled with holes and seemingly covered in scattered flesh, he fought with increasing vigor.

The scene completely descended into chaos, like mapo tofu with strawberries, made into a filling, mixed with red worm bait and concrete No. 42, evenly spread on a pizza crust, baked into a soup dumpling.

“......”

Damn it! Is that guy the protagonist of some hot-blooded shonen manga?

How can he keep getting stronger in battle?

If this continues, and he breaks through in battle again later, won't everyone be finished? Lu Yibei thought.

However, despite her complaints, she could vaguely guess the reason for Shaman King's gradual increase in strength.

It was that terrifying will...

As a urban legend similarly affected by that will, if she chose to obey, she could gain the power to touch the “Disaster that transcends Calamity, the Calamity that disrupts Disaster.” Then Shaman King should also be able to obtain similar benefits.

No one is stupid; who would work without pay?

After a brief thought, Lu Yibei collected her thoughts, steadied herself, and asked Bai Kai, “Shui Ge, honestly, how confident are you in your speed?”

“Why are you suddenly asking that?” Bai Kai retorted, “Of course, I’m 100% confident!”

“Isn’t that too little?” Lu Yibei frowned slightly.

“Well, if you put it that way, then it’s 1000% confidence!” Bai Kai lifted his chin slightly.

“Barely acceptable!” Lu Yibei clicked her tongue, “Then I’ll trouble you with one thing. Turn around and go play with Shaman King until my ultimate move finishes charging.”

“What do you mean?” Bai Kai’s expression changed, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart.

He had a premonition that Lu Yibei was about to stir up trouble again.

“It means that I see everyone is about to collapse, and I am Shaman King’s main target. Please, Shui Ge, take me around him, always maintaining a distance that looks like you can catch up, but always just a little bit off...” Lu Yibei explained, “You don’t want everyone to get hurt, do you?”

“How should I put it? It’s like you’re teasing your customers, making them all feel like they have a chance, but in reality, no one can truly possess you.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Kai’s mouth twitched violently, then he turned to look at Nanling Yaohua, whose clothes were already stained with blood.

At this moment, he felt an unprecedented level of exasperation!

Leaving Shaman King unchecked, Nanling Yaohua might be in danger. Following Lu Yibei’s suggestion would put Lu Yibei in peril. How was he supposed to choose?

If anything happened to either of them, how would he explain it to his Senior Brothers in the future?

While Bai Kai was engaged in a fierce internal struggle, Lu Yibei closed her eyes on her own accord.

Anyway, tormenting one person is torment, and tormenting two people is also torment. Before tormenting Shaman King’s mentality, messing with Shui Ge’s mentality is not a big problem.

The fatal blow prepared for Shaman King had entered its final stage, and her condition was already much worse than before. She had to concentrate fully now.

“Half a minute, Shui Ge, I only need half a minute...” Lu Yibei whispered.

Since Bai Kai said he had 1000% confidence, she had 1000% trust in Bai Kai.

She believed Bai Kai could help her, help everyone, buy half a minute of time.

Glancing at Lu Yibei out of the corner of his eye, Bai Kai gritted his teeth and turned around, rushing towards Shaman King.

Meanwhile, as the terrifying power of correcting the miracle flower continuously accumulated within her body, the intense pain filling the internal organs of Lu Yibei, who had closed her eyes, finally erupted, tormenting her consciousness.

It was as if it was issuing a warning.

As her vitality rapidly drained, her face gradually paled, and her limbs and internal organs gradually lost their sense of reality, as if her entire body was turning into an empty shell.

Her consciousness several times slipped to the brink of collapse, only to be forcefully pulled back by her.

In a daze, she seemed to see boundless, profound fissures, and beyond the fissures, eternal darkness.

————

The wind shrieked violently in his ears.

Bai Kai, having pushed his speed to the extreme, transformed into a white shadow, darting around Shaman King.

His Spiritual Energy sensed the turbulent Spiritual Energy fluctuations, containing horrifying killing intent, relentlessly pursuing him from behind, sometimes close, sometimes far, under the provocation of Lu Yibei acting as bait, and sweat beaded on his forehead.

Spiritual Energy was being consumed rapidly.

For some reason, he remembered the time when he and Lu Ming went to a herdsman’s house to steal a sheep when they were children, and they were chased by a dog, jumping up and down.

That day, at the closest point, he could even feel the hot breath from the sheepdog's nose and mouth, panting on his backside.

Time seemed to slow down infinitely; half a minute felt as long as a century.

Then, Lu Yibei’s voice finally sounded in his ears again.

“I’m ready, Shui Ge!”

The next moment, Bai Kai felt Lu Yibei struggling to climb onto his shoulder, then used his shoulder as a springboard to jump, pushing off with both feet, and soaring towards the figure relentlessly pursuing them from behind.

Feeling his shoulder suddenly lighten, Bai Kai abruptly turned his head, but Lu Yibei’s figure was no longer there; he only saw a sky full of chaotic black lines...

————

Watching the Disaster, in less than half an hour, consecutively unleash and create two 【Unconventional Calamity Events: Time】, Nameless Book couldn't help but widen her eyes slightly.

This time, almost all observers, both people and urban legend, including her, confirmed that the Disaster indeed controlled that terrifying power.

Immediately after, as the chaotic black lines spread overwhelmingly.

The world reflected in her eyes seemed to be suddenly crumpled and distorted.

Everything within sight skewed, rotated, inverted, and overlapped at bizarre angles, like a kaleidoscope cut by chaotic black lines.

Immediately after, those chaotic black lines began to squirm, contracting violently as if devouring everything within their covered area.

Getting smaller and smaller, it became an elusive black dot, finally taking the air, sand, Spiritual Energy, and... Shaman King from that space, and vanished without a trace.

Only a figure remained, covered in chaotic light like garbled code, its body constantly changing into various strange shapes.

However, everyone seemed to be unaware of its existence, watching it slowly descend, gradually dissipate, and become increasingly thin.

Like a snowflake drifting towards the earth under the sunlight, continuously melting.

“Xiao Bei—!” Bai Kai’s heartbreaking roar, tinged with a sob, echoed.

And in the eyes of those staring, some bewildered, some grief-stricken, one pair of eyes, however, showed surprise.

They... couldn't see Lu Yibei? Why? Nanling Yaohua tilted her head, and without time to think further, she flashed, caught up to the falling Lu Yibei, and gripped her hand tightly...
