Swoosh——

At this moment, the ground beneath Hillman had already transformed into a swamp.

Countless swamps engulfed Hillman completely, pulling him constantly downward!

"Mud into Stone!"

A silver light flickered in the Nine-tailed Fox's eyes as she once again exerted her spiritual power.

The swamp enveloping Hillman began to petrify in an instant, threatening to petrify Hillman along with it!

But in the next moment, a ghostly glow suddenly emanated.

Upon contacting this glow, the earth elemental energy began to collapse immediately!

This is precisely the demon-breaking effect of the Demon Hunter bloodline, capable of directly breaking through the Wizard's magical power!

"Demon-breaking power?"

David's gaze sharpened, controlling more swamps to surge forth.

Soon after, all these swamps transformed into solid stones under the power of mud into stone.

Even with Hillman's demon-breaking power, he couldn't break through these solid stones directly, resulting in Hillman being sealed within a small mountain!

However, David knew it's impossible to resolve Hillman directly like this.

He silently glanced at Beibing City in the distance, refraining from further action. His figure flashed and quickly ran toward the distant Northern Forest.

Although he temporarily possessed the power of a Tier Five Nine-tailed Fox through full beastification, the consumption was equally immense.

He must return to the Northern Forest quickly before his magic power is exhausted.

The Lord of Beibing City, accompanied by the Knight Order, arrived belatedly, only seeing the back of the disappearing Nine-tailed Fox.

Then, he shifted his gaze onto the small mountain before him, displaying a look of astonishment, evidently not expecting Hillman to fail to prevent the adversary's departure.

Crack—a—a—a—

At this moment, the small mountain began to shatter bit by bit.

Hillman, enveloped in ghostly light, emerged from within, his face slightly pale.

To confront this Tier Five Mage, he had used his Demon Hunter bloodline to the fullest extent.

Otherwise, relying solely on the Holy Light Knight's power.

He discovered that he was no match for this Wizard who mastered both the Earth Faction and Transformation Faction!!

"Hillman?"

"Yes, I was defeated."

Hillman didn't hide it, his face looking very grim.

If the Lord of Beibing City hadn't arrived in time, continuing the battle would likely have resulted in his complete defeat.

Though he had anticipated it.

But hearing Hillman admit it truly, the Lord of Beibing City still gasped in disbelief, his eyes revealing an incredulous expression.

Hillman was defeated?

It's known that Hillman's strength was at Tier Five Peak.

If so, could this Earth Mage's power have reached near Tier Six?!

Especially upon seeing the battlefield already entirely transformed, he found it hard to believe how powerful this Wizard was.

The strength at such a level could even be called a cataclysm; if the battle occurred in Beibing City, he couldn't imagine what Beibing City would become!

"Is this the power of the Wizard?" His gaze flickered slightly.

Hillman's face also showed unwillingness; he initially wanted to capture this Wizard alive.

But now, he was almost killed by this Wizard himself, turning his face red and blue instantly.

Yet, no matter how unwilling he might be, he knew he couldn't continue pursuing, having to watch helplessly as this Wizard took the three Witches away.

However.

The Northern Lands aren't solely governed by the Church.

There's also Duke Frost Wolf, the Northern Fortress, and other forces.

His eyes revealed a fierce look, starting to fully hunt down this Wizard and the three Witches!

...

Northern Mountain Range.

Annie was anxiously waiting.

Suddenly, she noticed movement within the cave, her face showing alertness.

Soon, three Witches appeared at the cave entrance, Annie's face showing delight.

"Lingnai, Melissa, and Sofia!"

Upon hearing the sound at the cave entrance, the three Witches paused their steps.

Melissa tentatively spoke, "Miss Messenger?"

In the Witch Mutual Aid Association, only Miss Messenger possessed information about all of them.

"It's me."

Annie nodded happily.

But then she suddenly realized, she didn't see Lord Duke's figure.

She suddenly thought of a possibility, hurriedly inquiring, "Where's Master Wizard?"

Upon Annie's inquiry, the trio exchanged looks, and Melissa said in a low voice, "Someone pursued us midway, Master Wizard went to confront them."

"Confront?"

Annie's heart couldn't help but shiver.

The thing she feared the most had still happened.

And at the moment of danger, Lord Duke indeed chose to let the Witches go first.

Fool.

She couldn't help but murmur.

"Will Master Wizard be okay?" Sofia asked worriedly.

Hearing this, Annie inhaled deeply, declaring confidently, "Master Wizard will be fine."

"Let's leave here now."

She knew that even if they waited here, it would do no good.

Her task now was to take the Witches back to Frost Wolf Ridge, awaiting Lord Duke's return.

Howl—

The Ghost Wolf Beast was already waiting at the cave entrance.

Seeing the Ghost Wolf Beast without any anomalies, Annie felt much relieved.

The four rode the Ghost Wolf Beast, swiftly disappearing into the forest, heading toward Frost Wolf Ridge.

"If you can return safely."

Annie looked back toward Beibing City, "Whatever you wish, I will agree."
