If there is any movement, notify me immediately. This is likely what the humans call a 'luring the tiger away from the mountain' tactic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Norris spoke in a deep voice; he possessed one-quarter royal bloodline and was extremely powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he finished speaking, Norris led ten demons and a group of demonic beasts to surround and kill Ye Lin. Even knowing it was likely a trap, they still chose to take the bait—such was the temptation brought by a divine artifact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Lin did not try to be a hero; he turned and ran, with Norris leading the demons in hot pursuit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He succeeded! He drew away nearly half of the demons! Quick, let's go help him!\" The class-changers of Team A, hiding in the shadows, were overjoyed at the sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xiaoxiao wanted to go support Ye Lin, but she looked at the exit and saw there were still over a dozen demons left, and she immediately hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait a moment!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xiaoxiao called out to the others; she gritted her teeth, as if she had made a major decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There are still over a dozen demons at the exit, and our mission isn't finished yet! Team B has a large number of severely wounded, and breaking out definitely won't be as easy for them as it is for us; the number of demons is still too high!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We must draw away more demons. Therefore, Team A must split into two groups: one group to support Ye Mushuang, and one group to head to the exit to draw away another batch of demons...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xiaoxiao was halfway through her sentence when she was suddenly interrupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little girl, look quickly, who is that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man with blind eyes and a face covered in knife scars rushed directly toward the dozen demons at the exit like a moth to a flame; such behavior was pure suicide!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You demonic bastards, don't underestimate the bonds between us humans, you jerks! My compatriots, you must carry my share and live on well!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scar-faced man shouted and charged straight into the center of the demons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, his body began to collide and expand like a balloon, swelling into a large sphere within a few breaths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Run, it's a forbidden self-destruction spell!\" The demons finally realized what the scar-faced man was about to do, and they were terrified out of their wits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was already too late!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accompanied by a flash of intense light, the man was blown to pieces, leaving no corpse behind. A giant starfish appeared in mid-air, followed immediately by a violent, deafening explosion!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding demonic beasts and demons did not fare well either; the power of this self-destruction was terrifying, comparable to the full-force strike of a level 70 powerhouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyone who was close by, whether demon or demonic beast, was killed by the blast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the explosion, the ground was covered in severed limbs and broken arms; of the dozen or so demons, no more than five were still standing, and all five were wounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Madman! How can there be such a madman among humans!\" The demons were trembling with fear. After rushing up, he didn't say a word, didn't use any skills, and just self-destructed—who wouldn't be afraid of such a lunatic!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not good!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distance, Norris had almost surrounded Ye Lin, but upon hearing such a terrifying explosion, he immediately realized something was wrong. No longer caring about Ye Lin, he took all the demons and began to rush back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group led by Xie Xiaoxiao was stunned at first, then filled with wild joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It worked! Only five demons are left, and they're all wounded; Team B can definitely break out now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whenever there is despair, heroes who disregard life and death always emerge among humans. Sigh, I am ashamed of my own inferiority!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's just a pity for this iron-willed hero! To die just like that, and we don't even know his name!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group discussed among themselves, all feeling regret for the man who had just self-destructed. Although they didn't know where he had come from, he had truly saved everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, then turned and chased in the direction of Ye Lin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You all break out and go first, I'm going to support Ye Mushuang!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The members of Team A looked at Xie Xiaoxiao's departing back; they looked at each other, then smiled with great understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little girl, what kind of joke are you making! There's no such thing as us breaking out first; you're the captain, and we go wherever the captain goes!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly! We haven't even exerted any effort yet!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing everyone unanimously decide to continue following her, Xie Xiaoxiao felt an indescribable sense of being moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She cast aside the distractions in her heart and rushed desperately toward the direction where Ye Lin was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ye Mushuang... you must stay alive!\" Xie Xiaoxiao was incredibly worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, the members of Team B also saw a glimmer of hope for survival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn! Some idiot went and died together with the demons!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There are only five demons left; the opportunity is here, let's charge!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's right, a few demons like that definitely can't stop us, charge!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The class-changers of Team B had long since abandoned the severely wounded, so they charged at high speed, reaching the exit almost instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the demons and demonic beasts were left in a daze by the self-destruction of Ye Lin's clone; facing this fresh force, they naturally had no ability to resist and were instantly swept aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the exit right before their eyes, everyone became excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahahaha! We survived! Thanks to us dumping all those wounded burdens, and even more thanks to that silly girl and that idiot who just self-destructed!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn't that right! I would never be such an idiot, but I hope there are as many such idiots in the world as possible, so that I can live a long life!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother, haven't you heard the saying that the good die young and the wicked live for a thousand years? It's only right for good people to go die! Hahahaha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone in Team B rushed excitedly toward the exit; as long as they rushed out of this secret realm, they would survive! As for the life or death of others, what did that have to do with them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The matter of supporting Team A had long been cast to the back of their minds by all of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just then, a dark shadow suddenly blocked their path. It was a gaunt man, his face covered in twisted, hideous scars; his appearance was incomparably ugly, the type that would give you nightmares just by looking at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man raised his hand toward the excited members of Team B, and then a terrifying power rose from beneath the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forbidden Spell—Wall of Sighs!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1300,"2026-06-21T02:52:47.916Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","2552ad0c66054e8f47dbf4975fc7ece805ef4ffc703bd991f1e10f8cdb20bbf1","forbidden-spellcasters-have-short-lives-i-have-a-chapter-143","forbidden-spellcasters-have-short-lives-i-have-a-chapter-141",847,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fforbidden-spellcasters-have-short-lives-i-have-a-cover.jpg"]
