Ge Xiaolun looked down at the little girl in his arms and saw that she was clutching her armor tightly, her small body trembling slightly.

He had hoped to complete the mission peacefully, but now realized that was probably not the case.

“I will not hand this child over to you,” Ge Xiaolun said firmly.

Just as Ge Xiaolun was about to make a move, a strange, off-key voice suddenly came from the side.

"Oh my, isn't this the young knight commander of the Crown Guard family and our little prince? Oh? Even Steward Zhao Xin is here?" The man's voice was shrill.

"What? You three dare to openly obstruct the Demon Hunters from enforcing the law? Is this the will of the Royal Family and the Crown Guard family?"

The voice was incredibly irritating. The three of them looked in the direction of the sound and found a middle-aged man in a magnificent robe standing not far away, followed by a group of demon hunters.

"Although I don't know who this is, his face looks like he deserves a punch," Ge Xiaolun thought to himself.

Zhao Xin stepped forward and questioned, "If you're not a buddy, who are you?"

The man raised an eyebrow: "Steward, you really have a bad memory. Let me introduce myself again. I am Eldred, the leader of the Demon Hunters."

"What kind of bullshit Demon Hunter leader is this? Get out of the way!" Zhao Xin waved his hand impatiently.

Eldred sneered: "Oh? Are you all really going to protect a mage in front of everyone? The consequences are not something you can afford to bear."

Ge Xiaolun ignored him and simply carried the little girl forward. Unexpectedly, Eldred suddenly stepped forward and grabbed his arm.

"You ignorant child!" Eldred's lips curled into a disgusting smile.

"In a while, we'll be family, and you'll have to call me uncle. Today, let me teach you some things that shouldn't be done casually."

Ge Xiaolun was already disgusted by this guy's face, and now that he was being held back, he couldn't hold back any longer. Holding the little girl in his left arm, he drew his greatsword directly with his right.

"Oh? Are you angry?" Eldred said dismissively. "Then let your uncle check your strength today." He slowly drew his longsword from his waist and looked at Ge Xiaolun.

Ge Xiaolun didn't bother with any more words and directly slashed down with his sword.

Eldred calmly raised his sword to meet the attack, a relaxed smile on his face.

He was extremely confident in his swordsmanship and had even begun to consider how he would humiliate Ge Xiaolun after he won.

However, the smile froze on his face the next second.

The moment his sword clashed with Ge Xiaolun's sword, he felt an irresistible force sweeping over him.

The longsword in his hand shattered instantly, followed by excruciating pain from his right arm.

He looked down and saw that his entire right arm had disappeared, with a large amount of blood gushing out.

"what!!!"

"Tch, it's so rubbish."

"Yeah, he came out so arrogant, I was wondering how strong he was! Tui!" Zhao Xin spat at Eldred with disdain.

Chapter 81: Demons Forbidden Only for Commoners?

Eldred's screams echoed through the street, and Zhao Xin frowned.

"It's so noisy!"

He looked around, his gaze landing on a fruit stand. He grabbed a strange, thorny fruit, walked up to Eldred, and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

"No no no!"

The scream turned into a whimper as the spikes pierced Eldred's lips and tongue, and blood trickled down her chin.

Several demon hunters tried to help, but Ge Xiaolun swung his greatsword and knocked them to the ground.

"Let's go to the palace."

Zhao Xin grabbed Eldred by the collar and dragged him toward the royal city, leaving a trail of blood on the ground.

The passing residents wanted to run away, but couldn't resist their curiosity. They hid in the shadows, quietly watching this struggle between nobles.

"Good heavens, isn't that Lord Eldred?" a merchant whispered.

A woman covered her mouth, looking puzzled: "But aren't those His Highness the Prince and Knight Commander Garen? How could they be..."

The man next to her quickly stopped her: "Shh, keep your voice down, don't talk nonsense."

A little boy ran into the street, pointed at Eldred, and shouted, "Look! That evil hand demon got beaten up!"

His mother quickly pulled him back, looked around in alarm, and when she found no one was paying attention, she hurriedly ran home and closed the door.

Ge Xiaolun held the little girl; she had stopped trembling and was looking at him curiously.

"What's your name?" Ge Xiaolun asked.

"My name is Luna..." the girl whispered, "You...aren't you here to capture me?"

"Don't worry, no one will come to arrest you anymore."

The three quickly arrived at the palace gates, where fully armed guards stood on either side of the tall archway. The guards looked puzzled as they approached.

"Your Highness? Knight Commander Garen? Steward Zhao Xin?" A guard took off his helmet and rubbed his eyes. "But... but shouldn't you be inside?"

He glanced at the palace behind him, then at the three people in front of him, his face full of confusion. Suddenly, he noticed Eldred, whom Zhao Xin was dragging, and was startled.

The guard drew his sword. "They're imposters! Guards!"

Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Xin struck with lightning speed, hitting the guard on the back of the neck, and the guard fell to the ground with his eyes rolled back.

The other guards immediately drew their swords, but Zhao Xin was faster; before they could react, they were knocked to the ground.

The three pushed open the palace gates and entered the council hall.

In the hall, Jarvan III sat on the throne, with Jarvan IV standing beside him. Garen, his parents, and the Demacian nobles and generals were engaged in a heated discussion.

The door opened, and everyone looked toward the entrance. Jarvan III looked angry, clearly displeased at being interrupted.

"Who dares to trespass—" He stopped abruptly as he saw the face of the newcomer.

Shock spread across everyone's face.

Immediately afterwards, they saw Eldred, whose face was covered in blood, being dragged along by Zhao Xin.

"Magicians!" a minister exclaimed. "They must be magicians!"

But this idea was immediately rejected.

“Impossible,” an older general shook his head. “This is the royal palace, built with anti-magic stones. Even the most powerful magicians cannot cast spells here.”

The ministers' gazes swept over the three men, their shock slowly turning into suspicion.

"They're definitely imposters wearing masks! Guards! Take them down!"

The guards quickly lined up, ready for action.

"Take them down!" Jarvan III ordered.

The guards drew their swords and charged menacingly towards Ge Xiaolun and his companions.

With a wave of his hand, Cheng Yaowen erected a thick earthen wall, blocking the guards outside.

The hall immediately descended into chaos.

"Magician!"

"How is this possible? Aren't there anti-magic stones in the palace? How can they use magic?"

"This is impossible!"

Garen drew his greatsword, his eyes resolute. His duty as commander of the fearless vanguard instilled in him no fear, especially now that they were in the palace, where he had to protect the king.

"Garen, stop!" Jarvan III shouted sternly.

Garen was taken aback and looked at the king, his face full of confusion.

Jarvan III's expression turned grave: "We cannot deal with someone who can use magic while surrounded by anti-magic stones."

“When I was young, I met a cloaked mage in the Forbidden Forest,” Jarvan III said slowly. “He could still use teleportation magic even in a forest full of anti-magic stones.”

"At the time, he was fighting an elemental dragon... no, it was less of a fight and more of a one-sided crushing defeat."

"The mage casually tossed out a magic missile, which blasted the elemental dragon to pieces."

(Ryze: I don't know. I had just finished collecting the runes that day when I saw a dragon flying towards the place where I had placed the runes. He must have been bewitched by the power of the runes, so I gave him a magic missile to help him come to his senses.)

Jarvan III calmed himself and looked at the three men: "May I ask who you are, esteemed mages? Where do you come from? What brings you to Demacia?"

Jarvan III spoke respectfully, but Ge Xiaolun still noticed the wariness in his eyes.

Clearly, he subconsciously believed that the arrival of a magician in Demacia was definitely not a good thing.

That's normal; after all, Demacia has been persecuting mages for so many years.

Ge Xiaolun, Cheng Yaowen, and Zhao Xin exchanged a knowing glance and simultaneously activated the "skins" that Yang Yi had prepared for them.

In an instant, a blinding light burst forth in the hall, and everyone instinctively closed their eyes.

As the light faded, everyone slowly opened their eyes, and the sight before them left them speechless with shock.

Standing before them were no longer three suspicious intruders, but three godlike beings.

The divine and spiritual power emanating from the three individuals compelled everyone present to instinctively kneel in worship.

"Is this... a god?" someone murmured, their voice trembling.

Looking at everyone's reactions, Ge Xiaolun thought to himself, "The BOSS's skin combined with the power of faith is just too good."

“My name is Ge Xiaolun,” he said, pointing to the two people behind him. “This is Zhao Xin, and this is Cheng Yaowen. We are from a parallel universe… you two.”

As soon as the words were spoken, the entire hall fell silent. Jarvan III and the nobles exchanged glances, none of them doubting the truth of his words.

In the face of absolute power, any lie is meaningless.

Ge Xiaolun and Garen locked eyes. Two almost identical faces, yet two completely different auras.

Garen's eyes gleamed with eagerness; he saw the future he longed for.

"If I could have that kind of power..." Garen clenched his fist tightly, "I could protect the people of Demacia."

Ge Xiaolun's gaze passed over Garen and landed on the blonde girl behind him.

Lux was looking at him with her bright, curious eyes, her gaze filled with excitement.

"My brother's parallel universe version is also a magician!" Lux thought to herself with delight.
