Chapter 546: Chapter 546: Divine Flame Sect, Fight to the Death

"Old acquaintance? Who did you see?"

Lin Chen looked at the Dragon Fang Dagger and asked.

The first people Lin Chen thought of were Xia Wanxin, Qin Kaifeng, and others.

When they had entered the secret realm, they had been randomly teleported to various parts of the realm. Meeting up now and joining forces would surely increase their strength substantially. It was also good for them to watch out for each other.

"Why don’t you go and see for yourself? Oh right, when I left, they were being surrounded and attacked. If you hurry, you might still catch them alive,"

the Dragon Fang Instrument Spirit said indifferently, crossing its legs casually on the Dragon Fang Dagger.

Hearing this, Lin Chen was at a loss for words; he knew the Dragon Fang Dagger was purposely provoking him.

Lin Chen stopped wasting words with the Dragon Fang Instrument Spirit and immediately rushed in the direction from which the Dragon Fang Dagger had initially flown.

Seeing this, the Dragon Fang Dagger also followed leisurely behind Lin Chen.

At this moment, in the forest, a group of beautiful women were being attacked by five skeleton frames.

Although these skeletons weren’t as powerful as the one that had chased after the Spirit Sword Sect, their strength was not to be underestimated, and with five of them, they were far too much for the women to handle.

Among them, a woman in a purple dress stood out with her curvy yet slim figure, especially her exceptionally proud breasts.

The woman in the purple dress, wielding a sword, kept retreating with the other women. They were all wounded, their spiritual power nearly depleted, and their injuries severe, significantly reducing their combat effectiveness.

"Junior Sister Yu, you take the sisters and run. I’ll hold them off,"

suddenly, a woman in a red dress with a voluptuous figure and tattered clothes, standing out with her many injuries, stepped out from the crowd to the back, facing the five skeletons frames alone.

Yao Qinghe clearly understood that if they didn’t find a way to break free soon, they would likely all die at the hands of these skeletons.

And since she was grievously wounded, despite being the strongest among them, she would likely become a burden if they tried to escape.

She simply gave up the idea of running away and prepared to fight desperately against the five skeletons frames, hoping to buy time for her sisters to escape.

With that, Yao Qinghe bit her finger, and a powerful aura suddenly burst forth from her body, her strength surging immensely. She was evidently using some sort of secret technique.

"Senior Sister Yao, what are you doing? If we go, we go together,"

Yu Weilian, upon seeing Yao Qinghe using her secret technique, immediately felt tears well up in her eyes while the other disciples of the Divine Flame Sect quietly began to sob behind her.

They were well aware of the consequences Yao Qinghe would face after using the secret technique, as it depleted the user’s vital energy. After using it, they would undoubtedly enter a prolonged period of weakness.

Even if Yao Qinghe managed to kill the five skeletons frames before her, other terrifying entities remained within the ruins. Facing those dangers during her weakened state would be incredibly perilous.

Therefore, the group resolutely refused to abandon Yao Qinghe to face the five skeletons alone, choosing instead to stay and fight alongside their companion.

"Yu Weilian, don’t forget, apart from me, you are the elder sister here. You need to take care of them,"

"I’ll stay behind to deal with the Skeleton Frames, the Junior Sisters are your responsibility now, you must make the right choice. Do you want my sacrifice to be in vain, to have all the Junior Sisters buried with me?"

Yao Qinghe was burning all her Vital Energy, her gaze fixed on the five Skeleton Frames in front of her. At this moment, there was no fear in her heart, just the desire to annihilate the five Skeleton Frames before her, so she could protect her Junior Sisters.

The Divine Flame Sect had always been an independent force situated between the Divine Flame Alliance and Red Soul Hall, belonging to neither.

But with the emergence of the relics within the Luoyun Mountain Range, naturally, the Divine Flame Sect had also come to compete for an opportunity. The Divine Flame Alliance and Red Soul Hall both sought to court them, and naturally, they did not refuse.

To the Divine Flame Alliance and Red Soul Hall, the Divine Flame Sect was an entity neither wished to offend. And this wasn’t due to the Divine Flame Sect’s formidable strength, but because its martial artists were either Array Masters, Alchemists, or Artifact Refiners.

Put plainly, both the Divine Flame Alliance and Red Soul Hall regarded the Divine Flame Sect as a commercial sect, beneficial to both sides’ strengths, without posing any threat.

Although both desired to incorporate the Divine Flame Sect into their own territories, they dared not employ forceful measures.

Seeing Yao Qinghe willing to safeguard them at the cost of her own life, tears welled in the eyes of the dozen or so disciple maidens of the Divine Flame Sect; they all were unwilling to leave.

Having entered these ruins, they had already witnessed many sisters perish before their eyes.

Unwilling to see their Senior Sister part from them, they each made up their minds and chose to stay behind to fight to the death against the five puppets.

"What are you doing!? Fools."

"Yu Weilian, hurry and take them away."

Yao Qinghe, upon seeing the actions of her fellow Senior Sisters behind her, immediately became furious and rebuked them loudly.

Yao Qinghe was very much aware of how powerful the five Skeleton Frames before them were. Each possessed the strength of the Heavenly Human Realm, and were certainly not something they could handle; staying would mean a senseless death.

However, Yu Weilian knew that given the situation, it was no longer within her power to influence the decisions of the other Junior Sisters, so she too unleashed her aura and chose to join the fight with everyone else.

Hiss—

Hiss—

Instantly, the Skeleton Frames charged towards them, and Yao Qinghe along with Yu Weilian and the other Divine Flame Sect female disciples immediately fought back.

However, Yao Qinghe was but a practitioner at the Half-Step Heavenly Human Realm, and Yu Weilian was merely at the Revert Void Realm Eighth Layer. The other twelve female disciples were also only at the seventh level of the Reverting Void realm and Revert Void Realm Eighth Layer. How could they possibly be the opponents of the Skeleton Frames?

The battle had hardly progressed before someone was pierced through by the Skeleton Frames. Three women died on the spot.

Although everyone was overcome with grief, they had no time to mourn, as the next moment the attacks of the Skeleton Frames were upon them.

One of the five Skeleton Frames swung its claws, aiming straight for Yao Qinghe’s head.

"No!"

Yu Weilian, seeing this, instantly let out a heart-wrenching scream.
