The golden-haired Julia stood at the top of the mountain, looking down at the beautiful scenery at the foot of the mountain.
The strong wind whistled past her body, causing her clothes to flutter and her blonde hair to flutter in the wind.
She faced the strong wind and talked to the air at the top of the mountain, "Sister, I saw him again today."
"He is very smart, very smart, so smart that he doesn't seem like a youth at all, but more like a resourceful old monster."
"I think he should have already guessed that it was you who asked me to protect him. But I didn't reveal any information about you to him. Before he grows strong enough, I won't reveal any information to him. "
"But he is very stubborn. No matter what I say, he wants to go against the organization. I can protect him this time, but I might not be able to protect him next time. "
After talking to herself, Julia silently turned around and strolled away from the top of the mountain.
…
The next day at noon.
The Northern Yan capital, which had changed beyond recognition, had been completely taken over by the coalition army.
In the square in the center of the Northern Yan capital, there was a temporary execution platform made of wood.
Xiao Shuang, whose clothes were in tatters and her face and body were covered with blood and filth, looked battered and exhausted. She was tied to the wooden stakes of the execution platform by several thick metal chains.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the Alliance Army surrounded her, filling up the entire square. Even the streets around the square were completely blocked.
All the soldiers present stared at Xiao Shuang in unison. Their gazes were filled with contempt, disgust, anger, and hatred, as if they were looking at a criminal who deserved to die.
"Execute her! Execute her! "
"Execute this traitor!"
"For such a sinner, executing her directly is already letting her off lightly!"
All the soldiers raised their fists and shouted excitedly. They wanted to cut Xiao Shuang into a thousand pieces and grind her bones into ashes.
For a moment, all sorts of random things such as eggs, stones, and other things were thrown at Xiao Shuang, covering her body in filth.
She could only lower her head and silently bear the anger of the crowd.
Lin Yun strolled to the execution platform and gestured to the agitated soldiers to stop. The entire scene quickly quieted down.
Lin Yun walked in front of Xiao Shuang, grabbed her hair, and lifted her head forcefully. He said to the soldiers, "This person secretly colluded with the enemy, sold the alliance's intelligence, and almost changed the situation of the war. She is a sinner who has committed the most heinous crimes and deserves to die!"
At this point, Lin Yun turned to look at Louise. "She's a member of your Ice Palace, so I'll leave her to you."
As soon as Lin Yun finished speaking, he turned around and walked off the stage, while Louise walked onto the execution platform with a cold expression.
Louise walked in front of Xiao Shuang and looked at Xiao Shuang with disappointment in her eyes.
Xiao Shuang looked up at Louise and cried out with tears in her eyes, "Master …"
"Shut up! You traitor! You don't deserve to call me master, and I never had a disciple like you! "Louise shouted with disgust.
As an elder of the Ice Palace, Louise was loyal to the Ice Palace. In some personal matters, she might be biased towards her disciple, but when it came to matters that involved the Ice Palace, she would not be biased at all.
Louise decisively pulled out the sword at her waist and said coldly to Xiao Shuang, "You don't deserve to be a disciple of the Ice Palace. Today, on behalf of the Ice Palace, I will punish you!"
After saying this, Louise raised the sword in her hand high.
"No, Master, please don't kill me," Xiao Shuang begged with tears in her eyes, helplessness and despair written all over her face.
She was unwilling and regretful. How she wished she could go back in time. Go back to three years ago, to the time when she was still with her, including Lin Yun.
If she could go back in time, she would never abandon Lin Yun again, and she would never provoke Lin Yun again.
Unfortunately, there were no ifs.
She no longer had the chance to go back in time.
"Kill her! Kill her! "
"Kill this traitor!"
The shouts of the soldiers below the execution platform once again pulled her back from her unrealistic thoughts to reality.
Under the shouts of the soldiers, Louise slashed down without hesitation.
Crack!
Blood splattered everywhere.
A head rolled to the ground. The blue eyes stared blankly at the blue sky, like a pool of stagnant water.
In Xiao Shuang's senses, time seemed to slow down at that moment.
All sound seemed to disappear.
The whole world seemed to be quiet at that moment.
Her brain seemed to be filled with heavy lead, causing her thoughts to freeze. She could not think at all, except for one last thought.
It's over!
It's over!
It's over …
She closed her eyes, unwilling to accept reality. The whole world fell into darkness in an instant.
Eternal darkness …
Louise dropped the sword in her hand and sadly walked down the execution platform.
Lin Yun walked up to Xiao Shuang's headless body. He lightly stomped the ground with one foot, and the huge force sent the sword on the ground flying.
Lin Yun grabbed the sword and kicked the headless body, sending it flying into the air.
The sword in Lin Yun's hand was thrown backward, and a cold light shot out from his hand. It accurately pierced the headless body, right between the two perky peaks, and completely pierced through the chest.
The sword pierced through the headless body and nailed it to the palace gate. The terrifying force instantly tore the body into pieces. The broken pieces of flesh bloomed like flowers, and the two full peaks fell down like two steamed buns.
Lin Yun snorted coldly. "This is what happens to traitors!"
…
The first battle of the allied forces could be said to be a complete victory.
After this battle, the Northern Yan Kingdom no longer existed. It had become the allied forces' base, and the assassins from the Assassination Society had all been withdrawn.
Lin Yun knew that the Assassination Society would not act again in the short term. Therefore, Lin Yun had to think of ways to increase his strength as soon as possible during this period of time.
There were many ways to increase one's strength, and raising the realm of an elementalist was only one of them. Other than that, raising the realm of one's divine sense could also greatly increase one's strength.
And the fastest way to raise the realm of one's divine sense was to find the soul jade fragments that sealed the remnant soul of one's previous life.
After killing the White Bone Eagle King, Lin Yun had snatched eight soul jade fragments from it. After absorbing these eight soul jade fragments, Lin Yun's spiritual power and divine sense had greatly increased, but it was still far from enough to break through.
There were six realms in divine sense cultivation: sensory realm, transcendental realm, transcendental realm, supreme realm, holy soul realm, and transcendental god realm.
With each realm, the difficulty of cultivation would increase by more than ten times.
This meant that Lin Yun had only absorbed a few soul jade fragments to advance from sensory realm to transcendental realm.
And from transcendental realm to transcendental realm, he would need dozens of soul jade fragments.
So on and so forth, from third realm to fourth realm, he would need a few hundred.
From fourth realm to fifth realm, he would need a few thousand.
