Although the ice shield was burned through, the fireball was extinguished as well.

Seeing this, Fang Qiu breathed a slight sigh of relief.

It seems that her opponent's control over elemental power is similar to hers, and she is not invincible.

"Be careful, don't let your guard down."

Shen He reminded him.

No sooner had the words left his mouth than three five- or six-meter-tall Rock Kings descended from the sky and landed heavily on the ground.

The earth trembled, and Fang Qiu nearly lost his footing.

The three Rock-type Hilichurl Kings let out a deafening roar.

As the roar resounded, a yellowish-brown light appeared on the bodies of the three Hilichurls.

Not only that, Fang Qiu also saw three short people, wearing robes and wielding staffs, standing on the shoulders of the three Rock-type Cicada Kings.

Even the Hilichurls emanating black smoke behind them surrounded them.

“Abyss Mage, it seems the black mist here is related to them.”

They looked at the Rock King and three Abyss Mages surrounding them.

Shen He's expression darkened, and a cold glint flashed in his hand, instantly revealing a uniquely shaped spear that radiated a chilling light.

Hu Tao's expression was also solemn, and the homa in his hand burst into fierce flames.

But after glancing at Fang Qiu, she extinguished the flames.

Feeling the oppressive aura of several Rock-type Hilichurl Kings rushing towards him, Fang Qiu let out a long breath, suppressing his fear and panic.

He looked around warily, the Eye of God at his waist flashing with a cold light.

To be honest, she had never seen anything like it before...

This is practically a real-life Attack on Titan...

Although she didn't know if she could play a role in a battle of this level.

It's unclear whether Shen He and Hu Tao can handle this situation.

But at least I must make sure I don't hold anyone back.

"You protect Fang Qiu, I'll take care of them."

Fang Qiu was stunned. Before she could speak, Shen He stomped his foot and transformed into a white shadow, rushing towards several Rock-type Cuboids.

Two Rock-type Cicada Kings and two Abyss Mages suddenly launched an attack, rushing towards Shen He.

"Frost God Transformation!"

Shen He raised his hand and waved it, and a talisman with a cold light flew out of his hand, transforming into a puppet holding a long spear that charged towards one of the Rock-type Cicada Kings.

She herself charged toward another Rock-type Cicada King.

As she charged, two of the abyss mages brandished their staffs and attacked Shen He.

Shen He's expression hardened, and just as he was about to make a move, two ice shields immediately blocked the attacks of the two abyss mages.

It was Fang Qiu who made the move.

Shenhe also took the opportunity to rush to the ground beneath one of the Rock Kings.

Nayan Kaichu King slammed his arms down on Shen He.

Shen He shifted his body to the side and then leaped up. As Nayan Kaiqiu King smashed the ground and soil with his arms, Shen He had already jumped onto Nayan Kaiqiu King's head and then slashed down with his spear.

This shot was powerful and heavy.

It directly knocked the Rock King to the ground, and the yellow light on its body immediately dissipated.

On the other side, the puppet formed from the talisman was also fighting against another giant Hilichurl.

The two abyss mages launched another attack on Shen He.

Just as Fang Qiu was about to make a move, the next moment her head went dark. Fang Qiu subconsciously looked up and saw that another Hilichurl King had somehow jumped onto her and Hu Tao's heads, its fists clenched, and was about to smash down on them.

The violent wind pressure caused Fang Qiu's expression to change. Without the slightest hesitation, her Eye of God suddenly burst forth with light.

A six-meter-long frost greatsword instantly stood still in place.

Hu Tao then grabbed Fang Qiu's slender waist and darted to the side.

The Rock King, unable to adjust its position while flying in the air, slammed down hard on the Frost Greatsword that was standing in place.

In an instant, ice crystals scattered everywhere, and the yellow light on the surface of the Rock King's body also flickered wildly.

After the Frost Greatsword left behind by Fang Qiu shattered completely, the yellow light emanating from the Rock King's body also became extremely dim.

As soon as Hu Tao landed, she swung her protective aura fiercely, unleashing a burst of fire, but it was blocked by the arriving Abyss Mage.

On the other side, Shen He dodged the attacks of the two abyss mages, but in doing so, he lost the opportunity to finish them off.

The defeated Rock-type Cicada King got up again.

At that moment, the Hilichurls shrouded in black mist also rushed over.

For a time, the battle was intense.

……

……

P.S.: I'm experiencing writer's block. I'll update at the same time tomorrow.

Chapter 296 Does the Emperor also like to read Fang Qiu's books?

Fang Qiu raised his hand and waved it, and a long sword of profound ice shot out and stabbed fiercely into a Hilichurl whose body was shrouded in black mist.

In the past, this sword would have been enough to pierce through the Hilichurl's body.

However, this time, the ice sword only penetrated halfway into the Hilichurl's body before getting stuck.

The Hilichurl seemed oblivious to pain, roaring as it charged towards them.

Fang Qiu delivered two more sword strikes, and the Hilichurl finally fell.

The next moment, the Hilichurl holding the giant rock shield suddenly bent over, like an arrow taut on a bowstring, and shot out, charging towards them with the giant rock shield against its back.

Fang Qiu's crimson pupils contracted, and she swiftly swung out two ice swords. However, under the impact of the giant rock shield, the two ice swords shattered into ice mist almost instantly.

Hu Tao once again wrapped her arms around Fang Qiu's waist, and with a few quick movements, she dodged the attacks of several Hilichurls.

At the same time, the Rock Armored Hilichurl King recovered and charged towards them with a kick of its hind legs.

Fang Qiu raised his hand and waved it, and a giant sword condensed once again, while the protective aura in Hu Tao's hand suddenly burst into flames.

Just as they were about to make their move, a green shadow landed on the head of the Rock Armored Hilichurl King like a meteor falling to earth.

The Rock Armored King fell to the ground.

After obliterating the Rock Armored Hilichurl King, the green figure did not linger for a moment, darting and weaving among the Hilichurls. In just a few breaths, the numerous Hilichurls shrouded in black mist and the Abyss Mage were utterly powerless to resist, and before they could even react, they were all instantly slain.

Then, the dark green figure revealed itself.

He was a green-haired boy wielding a green spear.

He looked only sixteen or seventeen years old, and was about the same height as Hu Tao.

Fang Qiu looked at him with envy.

That's incredibly powerful!

And so young...

Just as Fang Qiu was about to express her gratitude, Shen He finished his battle and arrived from a distance.

"Fang Qiu, Hu Tao, are you alright?"

Shen He quickly asked.

"It's alright, thankfully a master came to our aid."

Fang Qiu said.

"Thank you for your help, Great Sage Who Subdues Demons."

Shen He looked at Xiao and said respectfully.

The Great Sage Who Subdues Demons?

Is this young man an immortal?

For a moment, Fang Qiu felt a little embarrassed. Luckily, she hadn't said thank you to her younger brother for his help.

Otherwise, he would have been slapped to death by this Great Sage who subdues demons.

"Exorcising demons and monsters is my duty, no need for thanks."

Xiao nodded to Shen He, then turned to look at Fang Qiu, a hint of surprise flashing in his usually calm eyes, and asked, "Your name is Fang Qiu?"

"Does the immortal know me?"

Fang Qiu was feeling awkward when she heard the Demon-Slaying Great Sage ask a question, which surprised her as well.

"I've only heard this name many times at Wangshu Inn. I think it's just a coincidence. Who would use their real name as a pen name?"

Without waiting for Fang Qiu's reply, Xiao said calmly, "This area has been rather unsafe lately, so try not to get too close. I have other things to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. You should also head back to Liyue Harbor as soon as possible."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao disappeared from the spot, leaving Fang Qiu bewildered in the wind.

She doesn't want to use her real name as a pen name!

This has nothing to do with her!

By the time she realized the problem, it was too late.

However, since the immortals said there was danger nearby, and it was getting dark,

They then sailed back to Liyue Harbor.

Along the way, Fang Qiu asked Shen He about the demon-slaying sage they had just met.

Shen He then told her that the Great Sage Who Subdued Demons was one of the five Yakshas under the Emperor, named Xiao.
