A ball of flame suddenly appeared in Shaman Hela’s hand and flew towards Li Yan.

“CEO Li, be careful!”

Amid Ian’s loud warning, Li Yan ducked to the side and quickly dodged the ball of light. At the same time, he waved his whip at Hela.

“Looks like you’re quite skilled.” After saying that, Hela appeared behind Li Yan in the next moment.

She used her hand like a claw, and a ball of light was about to smash onto Li Yan’s head.

Li Yan instantly sensed danger and quickly dodged the ball of light.

“Hela, aren’t you a very powerful shaman? Quickly, finish him off!” The Earl felt impatient after seeing Li Yan dodge twice.

Worried that something had happened to Li Yan, Ian warned him, “CEO Li, pay attention to the magic sword in Hela’s hand.”

The Earl glared at Ian fiercely.

Ian felt the Earl’s gaze and quickly turned to look. He was frightened by the Earl’s gaze and took two steps back.

Suddenly, the Earl had a gun in his hand.

It was the one Ian was holding previously.

Before Ian’s horrified gaze, the Earl pointed the gun at him. “Ian, die.”

“No…”

Li Yan heard Ian’s frightened cry and lashed out with his whip.

The whip blocked the bullet and diverted it.

At the same time, a magic sword emitting a black aura appeared in Hela’s hand, and she thrust it straight at Li Yan’s heart.

Li Yan couldn’t dodge in time. The magic sword was about to pierce his heart.

Instinctively, he raised his hand to block it.

However, how could his hand block a sword of magic? The magic sword slashed past his arm and continued to thrust towards him as a trail of blood appeared.

Just as it was about to pierce through, there was a bang! The magic sword seemed to have encountered an indestructible resistance and the sharp blade was blocked.

Li Yan attacked at the same time using an exquisite gun in his hand, which he pressed against Hela’s heart. With a pfft, the dull sound of a bullet passing through flesh and blood could be heard.

“How is that possible!”

Hela held a hand to her heart in disbelief and looked at Li Yan. “How can an ordinary person like you block my magic sword?”

Li Yan was also stunned for a moment. In the next second, he remembered that there was that talisman Chu Luo had given him before she alighted from the car. At first, he had kept it in his trouser pocket, but later, he placed it in the pocket of his suit jacket, where it was close to his heart.

He didn’t expect to be saved by this talisman.

While he was feeling stunned, Hela quickly put away the light sword in her hand, and a ball of light appeared there before she smashed it at Li Yan. “No matter what method you used to block my light sword, you will die this time!”

Li Yan only had time to turn his head to look at the ball of light that was emitting a black aura before it smashed towards him…

“So this is the black magic used by foreign shamans. I’ve learned something new today.”

After a crisp sound, Chu Luo instantly appeared beside Li Yan and blocked that ball of magic with her palm.

A red light flashed from her arm, and the black magic disappeared.

“Who are you?” Hela widened her eyes in disbelief.

“I am…” Chu Luo smiled at Hela and deliberately spouted nonsense. “The Lightbringer that God sent to deal with an evil shaman like you. ”

After saying that, she quickly took action and rained a handful of pills. Hela did not even have time to react before she was poisoned by Chu Luo.

Chu Luo’s poison pills were overbearing in that they took care of every spot.

From her hair to her fingernails… there was no part of her that wasn’t poisoned.

“Ooh… What did you use on me? My eyes, my ears, my nose… Boohoo…”

Seeing Hela instantly bend over and roll on the ground in pain, Chu Luo looked at Li Yan.

What she saw made her frown.

“Is your arm injured?” After saying that, she quickly grabbed his arm and looked at the wound that was still bleeding and emitting a black aura. “You were actually hit by a magic sword.”

Li Yan looked down at her and said in a low voice, “I’m fine.”

“How is this fine? This is a very serious matter.”

As Chu Luo spoke, she took out a talisman paper from her Heaven-and-Earth pouch. She bit her finger and used the blood on her fingertip to draw a few strokes on the talisman paper before quickly sticking it on his wound. Then, she said:

“I haven’t figured out how to cure this kind of magic. After you’ve dealt with the matters here, I’ll go back and study it properly.”

Li Yan nodded at her. The warmth in his eyes disappeared and he glared at the stunned Earl.

The Earl was really frightened by Chu Luo’s sudden appearance. When he saw Li Yan looking over, his body trembled.

As he retreated towards the door, his lips trembled as he said, “What do you want?”

“Hmph!” Li Yan snorted and quickly used his left hand to take out a retracted whip and send it towards the Earl.

“Ah…”

The whip wrapped around the Earl’s body and sent him flying into the air. Then, the Earl’s body slammed heavily against a wall.

Bam!

Pfft!

The Earl spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

Li Yan put away the whip in his hand and looked at Ian.

Ian shuddered.

Li Yan retracted his gaze and grabbed Chu Luo’s hand before walking towards the door.

Chu Luo glanced at Ian, who was just standing there, but didn’t pull her hand out.

As Li Yan headed to the door, he said in a low voice, “You can handle the rest yourself.”

Then, he said, “Open the door.”

“Oh… Okay!”

Ian quickly found the mechanism by the door and pressed it before it slid to either side.

Li Yan pulled Chu Luo out.

As Chu Luo was being pulled along, she asked, “You don’t want your wheelchair anymore?”

“Mm.”

With that, he quickened his pace.

Li Yan actually led Chu Luo upstairs.

The two of them walked for about ten minutes before they reached the rooftop.

There was already a helicopter parked there.

Chu Luo looked up at the helicopter with curiosity in her eyes.

“Is that a helicopter?”

“Yes. Let’s go up first.”

Once the two of them had boarded the helicopter, Chu Luo realized that the one driving the helicopter was Qin Ming.

Li Yan said, “Get out of here immediately.”

When the helicopter was two kilometers away from the ancient castle, a rumbling explosion suddenly came from the place. After the explosion, there was a raging fire.

Chu Luo leaned against the window and looked at the ancient castle, a corner of which had started burning. She asked Li Yan, “Is that where we were just now?”

Li Yan finally responded with an “Mm.”

Chu Luo sat properly and sighed. “Looks like Ian is a ruthless person too.”

Li Yan didn’t answer but asked, “What were you doing outside previously?”

When Chu Luo heard this, the corners of her lips curled up. “I was playing spin-the-wheel and drinking with the others. Those people wanted to get me drunk and deliberately did something to the wheel, so I taught them a lesson about the consequences of tampering with stuff in front of me.”

Those people had taken turns drinking and eventually became drunk.

However, she’d guessed that those people must have something else going on, so she deliberately drank a few bottles herself. As a High Priestess, Chu Luo felt that a priest who didn’t know how to drink wasn’t qualified to be a priest. Therefore, she had started drinking since she was young. Drinking alcohol was equivalent to drinking water to her.

Indeed, there had been more to come. Just as she was pretending to have drunk too much, a servant from the Earl’s family came over and helped her into a room.

Then, Arlan came in, wanting to do something to her.

She’d just beaten up Arlan until he’d have trouble functioning independently when she sensed something wrong with Li Yan.

After Chu Luo finished speaking, she asked Li Yan, “What are we going to do next?”

“Go somewhere.”

“Where?”

Li Yan pursed his lips.

Chu Luo looked at him suspiciously for a while. Seeing that he really wasn’t going to say anything, she felt certain that he hadn’t yet finished his business and didn’t ask further.

The helicopter flew above XX City for nearly half an hour. When it reached the skies of Silicon Valley, Li Yan suddenly took out his tablet and quickly typed on the keyboard.

Chu Luo tilted her head and looked over with a curious expression. “What are you doing?”

Li Yan didn’t even look up. As he typed rapidly, he gestured to her. “The time is just right. Look out the window.”

Chu Luo subconsciously looked out of the window.

Instantly, all the lights in Silicon Valley went out.

At this moment, the words “Countdown” appeared on the entire outer wall of a skyscraper.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0.

As the helicopter approached, an entire starry sky began to appear on the building.

Chu Luo took a look and exclaimed, “Wow! This is the entire Interstellar Map of ‘Battle of Lightyears’!”

Li Yan said, “I’ll give you only half an hour. This is your birthday present. How much you can remember depends on your own ability.”

“My birthday?” Chu Luo then remembered that her original self’s birthday was today. She quickly turned to look at him and smiled. “Is this the backdoor you’re opening for me?”

“Mm.”

Chu Luo’s heart skipped a beat.

She quickly retracted her gaze and leaned against the window.

The helicopter slowly circled the building from below.

Half an hour later, the helicopter stopped on the balcony of the top floor of the Blazing Glory Corporation building.

All the lights in Silicon Valley lit up simultaneously.

Chu Luo sat there with her eyes closed for a while before opening them to look at Li Yan.

“Done?”

“Yeah, I’m done.”

“Then get off the helicopter.”

After saying that, Li Yan stood up and walked towards the cabin door.

After the three of them alighted from the helicopter, they took the elevator to the first floor.

Li Yan sent Chu Luo to her hotel. Chu Luo smiled at him and said, “Thank you for celebrating my birthday.”

Li Yan looked at her smiling face and nodded. “Not yet.”
