Multiple Personalities-Chapter 416: The White-Robed Man

Lin Yu and Xu An listened, their eyes also sparkling with excitement. They tightly grasped Shen Jingqi's hand, as if transmitting endless power.

"Yes, we did it! We defeated this terrible Monster and saved the Kingdom!" Lin Yu said excitedly, his voice trembling with emotion.

Xu An nodded vigorously, his eyes full of pride, "We're the best!"

However, their joy did not last long, as it was swept away by a sudden chill. A low laugh suddenly echoed in the air, as if coming from all directions, making it impossible to pinpoint. The laughter was eerie and terrifying, like the wailing of ghosts or the sinister grin of a Demon, sending shivers down one's spine.

The smiles of Shen Jingqi and the others instantly froze on their faces, their bodies stiffening as they looked around warily. The atmosphere around them became oppressively tense, as if an invisible eye was watching them from the darkness, ready to launch an attack at any moment.

"What... what is that sound?" Lin Yu asked in a low voice, his voice filled with fear.

Xu An gripped his weapon tightly, his eyes revealing determination: "Whatever it is, we must be careful in our response."

Shen Jingqi took a deep breath, trying hard to calm himself. He could feel his heart racing, as if it were about to leap out of his throat. "Everyone, don't panic, stay alert." He said softly, his weak voice full of strength.

The laughter grew closer and clearer, as if echoing right beside them. Suddenly, a white-robed figure slowly emerged from the darkness. His figure was tall and mysterious, completely enveloped in a long white robe, with only a pair of eyes shimmering with an eerie light visible.

The white-robed man's steps were light and slow, causing their hearts to involuntarily race faster.

"Who... who are you?" Shen Jingqi mustered the courage to ask, his voice slightly trembling but determined.

The white-robed man let out a sinister laugh, chilling to the bone. "Who I am is not important, what matters is that your end has come." He said coldly, his eyes revealing murderous intent.

Lin Yu gripped his sword tightly and said loudly, "Don't think you can harm us, we won't let you succeed!"

Xu An also raised his shield, ready for battle. "Come on, let's see how strong you really are!"

The white-robed man looked at them, his mouth curling into a mocking smile. "Just you? Utterly overestimating yourselves." He said with contempt, then slowly raised his hand.

As he moved, the air around them suddenly turned cold, a powerful Magic Power spreading through the air. Shen Jingqi and the others felt an invisible pressure pressing down on them, making it almost impossible to breathe.

"Be careful, everyone!" Shen Jingqi shouted, sensing that danger was closing in.

At that moment, a ball of white flame suddenly appeared in the white-robed man's hand. The flame burned fiercely, emitting a strange glow, as if it wanted to devour everything.

"Go to hell!" The white-robed man roared angrily, then hurled the white flame towards Shen Jingqi and his companions.

Shen Jingqi and his companions quickly dodged to the sides, the white flame grazing past them, leaving a huge pit in the ground. The pit smoked white, emitting a pungent smell that made one want to vomit.

"That was close!" Lin Yu said with lingering fear, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

Xu An kept a close eye on the white-robed man, his eyes filled with vigilance. "We can't be careless, this guy is very powerful."

Shen Jingqi nodded, his heart filled with worry. The strength of this white-robed man far exceeded their expectations, and whether they could defeat him was still an unknown.

"Let's not scatter, attack him together!" Shen Jingqi shouted, then charged towards the white-robed man first.

Lin Yu and Xu An followed without hesitation, the three of them forming a triangle around the white-robed man. Shen Jingqi swung his weapon towards the white-robed man; Lin Yu launched an attack from the side, his sword swift as lightning; Xu An used his shield to protect himself while looking for an opportunity to counterattack.

The white-robed man smirked coldly, easily dodging Shen Jingqi and the others' attacks, then raised his hand again. This time, countless black lightning bolts appeared in his hand, shooting towards Shen Jingqi and his companions like venomous snakes.

Shen Jingqi and his companions quickly dodged, but were still hit by a few bolts. They felt a wave of pain, their bodies involuntarily trembling.

"This won't work, we can't win like this." Shen Jingqi thought to himself, his mind racing to come up with a strategy.

Suddenly, he thought of a plan. "Lin Yu, Xu An, you attract his attention, and I'll attack from behind." He whispered.

Lin Yu and Xu An nodded, then intensified their attacks. They swung their weapons vigorously, launching fierce attacks at the white-robed man, trying to draw his attention.

The white-robed man was indeed distracted by their attacks, focusing most of his energy on countering Lin Yu and Xu An. Shen Jingqi seized the opportunity and quietly moved behind the white-robed man.

He took a deep breath, then leapt up high, his weapon carrying a strong force as it slashed towards the white-robed man. Just as his weapon was about to strike, the white-robed man seemed to sense something, turning suddenly and kicking Shen Jingqi in the chest.

Shen Jingqi felt as though his chest had been hit by a carriage, his whole body flying backwards. He landed heavily on the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"Shen Jingqi!" Lin Yu and Xu An shouted, their hearts filled with worry.

The white-robed man looked at Shen Jingqi lying on the ground and let out a laugh of triumph. "With just this ability, you think you can defeat me? Dream on."

Struggling, Shen Jingqi stood up, his eyes filled with determination. "I won't give up, for the Kingdom, for our friends, I must defeat you."

At that moment, a flash of light crossed the sky. It grew brighter and brighter, as if illuminating the entire darkness. The black-robed man looked up at the sky, a trace of fear in his eyes.

"What is that?" he muttered to himself.

Shen Jingqi and his companions also looked towards the sky, their hearts filled with doubt. What was that light? What change would it bring to this battle?

As the light drew closer, they finally saw what it was. It was a group of mysterious knights, riding tall warhorses, clad in armor shimmering with light, swinging sharp weapons in their hands.
