The Defeated Saintess Is On A Journey To Tame The Evil God Book 01 Chapter 06.17 - Whale Song

With Aurora here, there should be no need to hold back.

She should be able to take care of the rest, right?

With this in mind, Xing Mo twirled her wand, playing the surrounding strings of fire like a musician.

Every time her wand touched a string, a barrage of tadpole-like sparks flew toward the Undying.

Boom—boom, boom, boom, boom—

Explosions erupted continuously, engulfing the Undying in flames.

The next moment, he planted his spear into the ground, and the flames gathered onto the tip of the spear, forming a vortex.

"Fool, your fire is too unsubstantial."

Jackal sneered, charged at Xing Mo, and thrust out his spear—

Boom—

The vortex of fire instantly swallowed Xing Mo, scattering fireballs that flew toward the workers nearby, only to be stopped by green light upon striking the workers.

"...?" The workers, who had fallen to the ground, looked on in confusion. One moment they thought they were going to die, the next they were protected by a sudden green light.

Whose doing is this? Is it the Goddess?

No… the Goddess's gaze doesn't reach the Northern District...

…

On the other side, Xing Mo, trailing blistering feathers of light, flew out of the vortex and hovered in midair.

She waved her wand, conjuring fireballs that rained down on the Undying below—

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom—

The fireballs hit their mark, only to be assimilated and then transformed into an even fiercer firestorm that headed for Xing Mo.

Xing Mo, trailing feathers of light, flickered through the air, and then dropped from midair.

During the fall, Xing Mo struck three differently colored strings, and upon landing, her wand glowed with a reddish-gold light—

—four string magic, Starshine Sword.

As the sword formed, Xing Mo lunged forward, striking three or four strings of fire along the way, creating sparks that advanced together with her.

When he saw this, the Undying swiftly twirled his spear, first blocking the barrage of sparks, then positioning the spear horizontally to intercept Xing Mo's incoming wand—

Clang—

The light on the wand transformed into a golden sword, its blade radiating extreme heat, and upon striking the spear, it sliced open a notch into the spear made out of sand.

"Four strings?" The Undying spoke in a pensive tone, "Who are you?"

Xing Mo didn't answer. She planted her feet firmly on the ground and exerted herself, and the Starshine Sword erupted with raging flames—

Boom—

Golden light flickered, shattering the Undying's spear.

The Undying instinctively tried to retreat and dodge Xing Mo's next attack.

But at this moment, the shadow beneath his feet darkened, and then was pierced by a flash of dark light—

"Aria." Xing Mo said calmly.

A petite figure emerged from the shadow, and a dagger imbued with dark light pierced through a chink in the Undying's armor and deeply embedded itself into his body.

"Wh…"

The Undying's eyes behind the mask constricted, feeling his shadow being drained, accompanied by a rapid loss of spiritual energy.

The next moment, he channeled his spiritual force and created a violent explosion centered on him—

Boom—

Aria and Xing Mo darted out in different directions, the ensuing heatwave threatening to engulf them and the surrounding workers.

At this time, faint green light descended and contained the raging flames within a certain area.

The workers in the factory gawked at the scene. They had never seen such a miracle before. Since the beginning, the faint green light had been protecting them, and now it manifested directly before their eyes.

This is the moment… As she thought this, Xing Mo cleared her throat and began a prayer with feigned piety: "Oh, Tree of Life, the cradle of all things."

"You are the origin, the budding one, the seed of truth."

"You are the master of dreams, the claimant, the mother of calamities."

"I beseech you, please shelter the abandoned flock, shelter the souls slumbering in the dream of suffering!"

Accompanying Xing Mo's prayer, the sky shimmered with a pale green aurora, looking like the hem of a Goddess.

The light converged together and formed a giant tree suspended high above the narwhal, towering over everyone's heads!

It was the Tree of Life.

…

Gazing up at the giant tree in the air, someone shouted: "It's God! God has come to save us!"

The workers fell to their knees, shouting and proclaiming it a miracle.

"It's God! Without a doubt! It's God!"

"Their emissary has come to save us! Even after such a long time, they have arrived!"

…

Xing Mo swept over the kneeling crowd with her gaze, noticing that Bianca and her companions were leading the chants—they were the first to shout.

Looks like the plan is going quite smoothly… Xing Mo cleared her throat and then shouted: "Get up! Do not kneel!"

"God has given you an opportunity! Now seize it and break through the factory's door!"

After finishing speaking, Xing Mo pressed the brand on her hand, sending a signal.

A distance away, Aria took out a small bronze device—a button she got from an overseer, which could deactivate the Mind Binder.

She pressed the button, and the workers felt a "pop" at their nape, and then a black gas emanated, only to be shattered by the Tree of Life in the air.

"...free… we are free…" They murmured.

But their joy was short-lived. The searing storm dispersed, revealing the Undying standing there, scalding flames spewing from the chinks in his armor.

At this moment, the eyes of the jackal mask burned bright gold, the surrounding air rippling with heat waves.

The Undying was about to unleash his true power!

"You are no nobody, who exactly are you…"

The Undying stared at Xing Mo. All of a sudden, he noticed the glowing Tree of Life brand on the back of her hand.

"Let me think… ah… could you be Mordheim's lamb? You're just discarded rubbish, yet you managed to survive by a fluke?"

Upon hearing this, Xing Mo's heart tightened. Sure enough, the empire had betrayed her. The instructor's suspicions proved true.

"Tell me, what is your objective…"

"Fat chance. Your flesh shall be burned, your bones shall be turned to sparks." The flames around the Undying grew fiercer.

The corners of Xing Mo's mouth curved up: "Really? How about taking a look above your head?"

An ethereal cry came from above. The Undying looked up sharply, and his eyes narrowed.

At the first glance, he saw the descending narwhal.

At the second glance, he saw the light in the narwhal's eyes—

—a Tree of Life brand composed of green light.

Boom———

The revitalized narwhal broke free from its restraints and smashed the Undying into the ground, and the entire factory shook.

A cloud of dust erupted like a tidal wave, engulfing everyone.

When the smoke cleared, Xing Mo saw only the narwhal's massive head writhing on the ground, a hand extending from below its jaw.

It was the Undying's hand.

Xing Mo looked up and found Aurora perched on the top beam.

When their eyes met, Aurora stuck out her tongue and flashed a mischievous smile.

This wicked little lass…
