Ye Lin counted them; there were a full 24 demons, and the demonic creatures following them were countless, forming an impregnable defense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A lineup of this scale clearly meant they were not intended to have any way out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xiaoxiao’s expression grew grave. If they were to lure away so many demons and demonic creatures, it would clearly be extremely difficult for the fifty-some people in Team A, and... if they were the slightest bit careless, they would likely be wiped out entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at this point, they had no path of retreat. A desperate gamble might be their only glimmer of hope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and said in a low voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We must pretend we are preparing to break through, and lure away as many demons as possible. I cannot guarantee that all of you will survive, but I can guarantee that I will be the one charging at the very front!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once these words were spoken, many in Team A could not help but laugh out loud, their laughter hearty and bright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you saying? Don't worry! We aren't so low as to rely on sacrificing a young lass just to cling to life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's right! If we wanted to just survive, we wouldn't have joined Team A. From the moment we stepped foot in here, we were already prepared to die at any time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Anyway, if we can break out, living is best. If we can't, killing one is breaking even, and killing two is a massive profit! I've long since found these demonic beasts to be an eyesore!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You all...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to everyone’s words, Xie Xiaoxiao could not help but feel moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then... let's move out!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xiaoxiao’s eyes were filled with fighting spirit and resolve, but when she looked at Ye Lin and the others, that resolve turned into worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You all have injuries; charge slowly later, otherwise you definitely won't be able to escape!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Ye Lin suddenly raised his hand to stop her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Actually, if it's just to attract the demons' attention, we don't need that many people.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But if fewer people go, the demons will surely send fewer people to hunt us down,\" Xie Xiaoxiao said, puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That is indeed the logic, but what if there were something that could attract the attention of all the demons?\" Ye Lin said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You mean...\" Xie Xiaoxiao paused for a moment, then looked down at the Star Puppet Thread in her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Star Puppet Thread was a genuine divine artifact; even demons would find it hard not to be tempted when faced with one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I understand!\" Xie Xiaoxiao nodded. \"It is enough for me to go alone to attract the demons' attention!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, Xie Xiaoxiao prepared to head toward the exit, but Ye Lin raised his hand and tapped her on the head—a crisp *thwack*.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ouch, what are you doing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xiaoxiao clutched her head and cried out in pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you understand? If you go alone to lure the demons, isn't that just going to your death? Then wouldn't my saving you have been in vain? Give the Star Puppet Thread to me, I'll go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then you can hide in the shadows and still be able to manipulate the Star Puppet Thread to rescue me,\" Ye Lin said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No!\" Xie Xiaoxiao refused flatly. \"You are still injured; I cannot let you take such a risk!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In this world, there are some things that someone has to do, right? If my death alone can let you all live, that’s not bad at all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Lin smiled nonchalantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Besides, who says I will definitely die? If the number of demons lured isn't high, we might even be able to ambush them and kill them in return! And since you have some knowledge of military strategy, you definitely cannot be the one to go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No more 'buts,' it's decided. If we drag this out, complications will arise!\" Xie Xiaoxiao wanted to say more, but was interrupted directly by Ye Lin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing how determined Ye Lin was, Xie Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and handed the transparent thread, the length of an index finger, to Ye Lin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This thread emitted a faint starlight, as if a piece had been cut from the Milky Way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Star Puppet Thread]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Grade: Divine]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Attribute: Mental Power increased by 320%] (Refinement Level: Five Stars)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Skill 1: Infinite]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Infinite: The user of the Star Puppet Thread has their mana recovery speed increased by 100%.

Yet Xie Xiaoxiao had handed it to Ye Lin without the slightest hesitation, which showed her trust in him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Lin couldn't help but chuckle as he asked, \"Aren't you afraid I'll take the Star Puppet Thread and run?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm not afraid, as long as you can stay alive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xiaoxiao gazed at Ye Lin with burning eyes; the warmth contained in that look stung Ye Lin, and he couldn't help but look away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry, I will live.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Lin dared not look at Xie Xiaoxiao again and turned to sneak toward the demons' location.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Xie Xiaoxiao and the others stayed in place to observe the situation, ready to provide support for Ye Lin at any time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Some people, if they die, they die; others, it is better if they continue to live...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Lin muttered to himself as he continued to approach the exit. At this moment, a demonic creature had already discovered him and came charging toward him with a roar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Lin channeled his mana into the Star Puppet Thread, and the thread, which had only been the length of an index finger, instantly began to grow wildly like seaweed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Lin manipulated the Star Puppet Thread with his mental power, and the rapidly growing thread instantly strangled that demonic creature, tearing it into pieces on the ground in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thick scent of blood alerted all the demons guarding the exit, and they all looked toward this direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's him! That expert who uses ice from before!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Be careful, this guy's strength is extremely terrifying; just a moment ago, over a dozen of us couldn't stop him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph! We won't let him escape this time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Ye Lin had no intention of escaping; instead, he manipulated the Star Puppet Thread to continue growing, shooting straight up into the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike Xie Xiaoxiao, Ye Lin did not let the Star Puppet Thread hide its edge; he let it shine fully. In an instant, it was as if a curtain of stars had appeared in the sky!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is... fine as hair, bright as stars... this is a divine artifact! The Star Puppet Thread!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This human brat actually has a divine artifact in his hands! Take him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Be careful, the power of a divine artifact is extremely terrifying; this brat might be brewing some ultimate move!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, all the demons became vigilant; no one dared to approach Ye Lin, fearing he was holding back something big.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xiaoxiao, hidden in the shadows, also didn't understand what Ye Lin was trying to do. Using the Star Puppet Thread like this, other than looking good, had no other effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Ye Lin's control, the Star Puppet Thread could be seen intertwining and changing in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, the Star Puppet Thread actually formed four characters in the sky that shone with starlight, glittering with golden light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1397,"2026-06-21T02:52:47.916Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","4a054b2d9503fa5f6baf8fca2d579bf9c73ed066d83316374c12525b682e8503","forbidden-spellcasters-have-short-lives-i-have-a-chapter-142","forbidden-spellcasters-have-short-lives-i-have-a-chapter-140",847,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fforbidden-spellcasters-have-short-lives-i-have-a-cover.jpg"]
