Another World Trip: Journey with My Cat and an Otaku Loli Goddess Chapter 196 - Intense Battle (Pt 2)

Krrrsh!

Lightning streaked from Long Di all over and Auntie Metal felt a sense of doom enveloping her!

****

Long Di’s cauldron suppression caused her fighting prowess to drop a few tiers and, even worse, Long Di was able to fight above his realm!

‘Breaking Mundane Forging Heaven. First Forging, Nine Tempers!’

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Boom!

An impact sent Long Di reeling back as Uncle Metal reemerged with daunting injuries all over!

Two holes were evident on both of his forearms whilst another much shallower hole was present in the middle of his chest!

Blood flowed continuously from these wounds, and he stared at Long Di with a livid expression!

Auntie Metal’s head was already filled with wounds from the first couple of hits from the Breaking Mundane Forging Heaven technique before Uncle Metal saved her.

“Are you okay?” he came to her side with a hand around her shoulder.

“I—” she steadied a gaze at Long Di before her eyes widened in a panic, “Look out!”

Krrrsh!

A lightning spear was already before her and Uncle Metal was just about to give his all to deflect it when his senses screamed for him to turn his head.

Following this action, he saw an old rusty hammer that was already too close to his head for him to do anything but look upon it and regret ALL the choices he made in life that led him to this point.

That time he was a baby and pooped in whatever counts as a diaper for a demon?

Instant regret.

Why?

Because that moment existed in a life that led to this current moment.

By now, Long Di had already crashed into the wall of the tunnel himself, but he made sure to let loose several moves in succession, which included chucking that hammer with all the strength afforded to him.

He couldn’t hold on to it for too long since it would automatically switch him to use his somatic essence, which wasn’t the way here.

Bam!

The hammer crashed into Uncle Metal’s head, and it immediately caved in, even with the powerful physical body he possessed.

Boom!

He crashed into the wall with a loud crash, but before he could register anything else in his dazed state, a terrifying sight appeared before him.

Long Di was merciless! Several lightning spears covered his vision, and he knew that should a few of these land on him, his life was forfeit. But the earlier impact caused his blood to flip and his organs to be displaced!

He couldn’t move as he wished for now!

Without warning, a haggard figure appeared before him.

“Auntie Metal!”

Auntie Metal had a hole in her shoulder flickering with lightning, but she didn’t pay this any heed.

If Uncle Metal lost his life here, then her life wouldn’t be far behind, so she had to protect him!

She shot a gaze towards the disciples who came with her and she could see their expressions of disbelief, especially the lead disciple.

She had no idea how Long Di was this strong despite being so young!

What sense did this make!? Long Di was how old? Ten? Eleven, maybe? So why was he a Martial Master!? Why did he have such powerful moves under his belt!?

“Escape now!” Auntie Metal’s shriek jolted them from their daze!

Auntie Metal then ignored them and executed a set of hand signs in the blink of an eye!

“Silver Aegis!”

Shing!

Her entire body shone with a silver glow, one much more intense than the faint glow that already encased her.

She quickly made a move to assume the same pose Uncle Metal was in so that every lightning spear that was going to hit him would hit her instead!

C-C-C-C-C-Clang! Clang! Clang!

The lightning spears crashed into her body with metallic clangors echoing in the tunnel before the impact alone caused them to explode in a burst of lightning qi!

“What are you doing!? Leave!” Auntie Metal’s expression was ugly when she saw that the disciples were still present.

The young female disciple who was the leader flinched at Auntie Metal’s reproach. However, she knew that her and the disciples’ lives were in danger.

Anger immediately filled her when she remembered why she had come here.

Lun Qiang spread the story about what happened. He wanted a peculiar spot in the sect and he was well aware that she was going to get it.

So he spread the story in a way that made it appealing for her to handle. He was well aware of the strength of Long Di and since the magical beast was something he believed to be extremely powerful; he thought they would be able to at least kill her.

She wanted merits for the sect, but now all this was happening.

She more than underestimated Long Di, and she and the others needed to escape the tunnel to tell the tale of this demon!

With this in mind, she turned tail and ran. She, who was a disciple of the Iron Body Forge Sect, had to run with her tail tucked between her legs. This humiliation was something that had to be repaid!

As she ran, she looked back at the spot where Long Di had landed following Uncle Metal’s attack and could see where he knelt on one knee, with his gaze in their direction.

Her blood ran cold upon meeting his emotionless scrutiny.

Eeengh!

A screeching noise drew her attention to four lightning spears that were headed for her and the others!

Mortal danger welled up within her, but she could do nothing but widen her eyes as the spears neared ever closer!

C-C-Clang!

“Auntie Metal!”

“Don’t stop! Run! Tell the Metal Seats!”

It was Auntie Metal who blocked these spears with her body, causing another eruption of lightning qi to blind them to what was happening. Only her voice could reach them and they had to ensure to carry out her wishes lest they all die here!
