Under the setting sun, the remaining sunlight shone on the front of the bookstore and the jujube tree.
The bookstore was in a remote area, and it was usually frequented by old customers. However, a new customer came to the bookstore today, and he didn’t have a friendly purpose.
“The Ancient Road Bookstore?” Lin Pingzhi looked at the name of the bookstore and frowned slightly. He didn’t go forward rashly.
This place was probably one of the strongholds of the black mages who had bewitched his daughter. As the cancer in the magic world, black mages were very dangerous, so he had to be careful.
Lin Pingzhi looked at the bookstore for a while and then retreated into the distance. He first left behind a time-delayed sound transmission magic array.
If he was in danger, this magic array would send the news back to his family.
If everything went well, he could turn it into a normal sound transmission magic array and gather his men to destroy this stronghold.
“I want to see what’s so strange about this place that my daughter is so obsessed to it.”
Lin Pingzhi took out a magic staff inlaid with crystals from his personal magic space and cast a probing spell in the direction of the bookstore. At the same time, a recording magic array rose.
The probing spell flew into the bookstore. The jujube tree at the entrance shook slightly. Then, everything calmed down and nothing happened.
“Huh? The spell disappeared?”
Lin Pingzhi’s eyes widened slightly in disbelief.
He could feel that after his probing spell entered the bookstore, but it disappeared without being attack or interfered. It disappeared into thin air.
As the head of the Lin family, he had lived for more than seventy years, but he had never heard of such a situation.
“Could it be that the dark mages have developed another strange spell? No, I’ll try again.”
Lin Pingzhi did not believe it. He gritted his teeth and cast another probing spell, but it still disappeared without a trace after entering the bookstore.
“D*mn it, what’s going on?”
The probing spell was useless. Did he have to go in himself?
Could this be a trap?
It was said that some evil black magic could change a person’s consciousness and control that person.
If those mind-controlling magic tricked the family head the Lin family, then it would be a shame to the family.
However, he could not ignore it. It could not be made public because it involved his daughter and would eventually affect the Lin family. This incident could not be avoided no matter what.
“Is this the scheme of those people behind the scenes? There is no movement inside. Are they sure that I will go in?”
Lin Pingzhi’s face was extremely gloomy. He could neither advance nor retreat.
After wandering around for a long time, Lin Pingzhi cast a lot of defensive spells on himself. Then, he stepped forward and left six sound transmission magic arrays.
As he gradually approached the bookstore, the magic elements in the air began to become scarce. A stifling aura quietly emerged.
At this rate, when he entered the bookstore, his strength would be suppressed by at least half.
It was still okay to be at the periphery of the bookstore.
“I can’t go in. If my strength is suppressed by half, the risk is too great. I’d better attack from the outside.” Lin Pingzhi stopped in his tracks, his eyes flashing non-stop as he cast illusion spell and reinforcement spell on the street.
He didn’t want ordinary people or mages to see the dignified head of the Lin family attacking a bookstore.
If it was really the black mage’s stronghold, then things would be even worse. He had to conceal the conflict with the plan that he wanted to deal with in private.
Illusion spell and reinforcement spell covered the outer street. They didn’t touch the area of the bookstore, so their power didn’t decrease.
…
While Lin Pingzhi was casting his magic…
In a remote and quiet alley, where the sunlight could not reach, an extremely deep shadow slowly twisted and stood up. It gradually turned into a slim and slender figure and walked out of the shadow.
The girl’s lips were red, and her teeth were white. Her skin was smooth and clean, and she walked out of the shadow with a unique temperament.
She didn’t stand in the shadows, but she gave people a dark aura. It was as if they were not paying attention, they would automatically ignore her, as if she brought the darkness with her.
“I don’t know if Senior Ye is in the shop. During this period, I’ve studied the painting and gained a lot. I have to thank him.”
Ban Feimeng muttered softly and took out another painting from her portable magic space.
She copied this painting from the original one. For a master like Ye Xiu, the helps that he gave out were nothing. What he wanted to see the most was for the junior to take the opportunity and grow.
The painting incorporated her understanding of the dark elements these days. She would be able to cultivate the light element soon. She thought that she would be able to please Ye Xiu.
Ban Feimeng took a few steps forward and happened to see Lin Pingzhi casting a spell.
She subconsciously merged into the darkness and was a little confused.
Why was that guy casting a spell in front of Senior’s shop? Was he provoking Senior? Was he looking for death?
However, judging from the aura of the spell, it was about the same as her current self. After receiving the painting scroll from Ye Xiu, her understanding of the dark element had improved drastically. She was about to advance to an advanced mage.
Ban Feimeng did not go out to stop him. She wanted to see what that guy wanted to do.
After the two spells were cast, no one outside the spell could see what was happening inside. Lin Pingzhi was relieved.
Lin Pingzhi retreated step by step until he felt that his strength was not being suppressed. He held the magic staff in both hands and stood in front of him.
Soon, the fire elements surged over as he summoned them. The flames kept compressing, and the power was restrained. The magic staff emitted a halo, covering an area of one meter around Lin Pingzhi.
A large bird formed from flames floated behind Lin Ping’s head. The flames were not an ordinary color, and they were greenish blue in color.
This was a magic passed down in the Lin family, the Azure Firebird. It could increase the power of the fire elements by 70%.
Attack magic? Was he going to destroy Senior’s bookstore?
Ban Feimeng was shocked. She could not understand why someone would seek death like this.
Senior would definitely be able to handle it, but since she had run into it, she couldn’t just ignore it.
Ban Feimeng took out her magic staff from the magic space. An endless stream of dark elements poured in, mixed with faint white spots. Light and darkness were present. Although the light was a little dim, it sublimated the single dark element.
Lin Pingzhi summoned the Azure Firebird first, but the speed of the dark element magic was also fast.
When the Azure Firebird rushed to the door of the bookstore, a black and white light circle appeared and directly wrapped around the Firebird.
A large amount of darkness elements surged, constantly adding to the light circle.
Bang ~
The Azure Sky Firebird exploded, and the light circle disappeared.
“Black mage? He is really targeting my Lin Family?” Lin Pingzhi’s pupils constricted. He first thought of the worst-case scenario.
He turned his head to the left. Ban Feimeng was still young after all. Her magic was broken, and she was forced to retreat. She was in a sorry state.
“This person’s experience is too poor. I’ll just capture her and ask her some questions. If she can’t do it, kill her.”
Lin Pingzhi’s eyes flashed with killing intent as he charged towards Ban Feimeng.
At the same time, he raised his hand, and the levitation spell and fireball spell were cast on the magic staff in his hand. They were shot out as weapons.
Ban Feimeng’s expression changed. She could block it, but the fireball spell of sacrificing the magic staff was too powerful. Once it exploded, even if she tried her best to defend, she might not be able to completely block it. In the end, it would damage Senior’s bookstore.
She had to go all out!
Ban Feimeng watched the fireball spell absorb the magic stones on the magic staff, and its power rapidly expanded. She couldn’t help but grit her teeth, intending to give it a try.
However, at this moment —
Without a sound, the jujube tree in front of the bookstore shook slightly, and an invisible aura of laws flashed past.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Soon, the fireball visibly shrank, leaving behind a magic staff that had no power at all. It spun a few times in the air weakly, and then with a clatter, it fell to the ground.
The power contained in the staff disappeared without a trace and became a piece of trash.
Ban Feimeng, who was preparing to resist the magic staff and fireball spell to protect the bookstore, was stunned when she saw this scene.
She subconsciously looked at the unremarkable jujube tree at the entrance of the bookstore.
At this moment, the unremarkable jujube tree’s bark slowly twisted to form a human face that was looking in her direction..
