Chapter 364 Qiangu Broke the Holy Rattan
Now, the battle was at its most critical moment!
After one hour, there were only 10 people left, while there were nearly about 100 of them in the beginning!
The last 10 people had totally given up attacking. Instead, they turned to protect Mu Yi and Yan Ming, using all their strength.
Strangely, Jue Luo seemed to have no interest in Lyu Liang. Staring at the powerless Mu Yi, he seemed to regard him as his final target.
Within this period, he had been recovering fast, with the help of the Tianxuan Holy Rattan. Right now, he had regained his most powerful fighting capacity, and forced the remaining 10 people into a fatal situation, even without burning his soul spirit.
“Third Uncle! Take them away! There is no sense in you risking your life to save me!” Mu Yi yelled, with his eyes all red and tears dropping down his face. It was unbearable for him, seeing his followers being killed randomly. His heart felt like it was being torn apart!
“Xiao Yi, I do not fear death! If we can give you a chance to escape, avenge us one day!” The old leader already had a broken arm. He shouted loudly to Jue Luo, “You’re not the only person who can make a shielding array. Everybody, let’s begin, for our young Lord!”
“Yes!” The other nine people roared together. The next second, with the old leader taking the lead, they started to perform earth-shaking self-detonations! When the smoke faded away, a huge, golden shield appeared, while behind it Mu Yi and Yan Ming, knelt and were choking with sobs.
At this time, Wen Xiaojing’s soul spirit burning was forcibly stopped by Fairy Purple Phoenix, who had got a hint from Lyu Liang to do so 30 minutes ago. Anyway, if Wen Xiaojing kept doing that, even an eternal immortal would not be able to save her from death.
Fairy Purple Phoenix then assisted Wen Xiaojing to go back to Lyu Liang’s side. Although her body was still shaking, the unyielding light in her eyes showed her resolution to keep her promise from before.
“Humph! I’ll deal with you later! Now, I have to kill this potential serious problem first!” Jue Luo laughed coldly, and then swung the Xuan-Yuan Sword toward the golden shield, causing the entire space to shake violently. The shield darkened, but quickly returned to normal. However, it was clear that the number of impact the shield could take was few…
At that critical moment, a stream of evil aura, which pierced the sky, appeared out of nowhere. Before people could make out what was going on, Jue Luo, who was swinging the Xuan-Yuan Sword again, was stunned and disappeared, after an instantaneous flash.
“Puff!” A faint sound could be heard, followed by Jue Luo’s scream. When he appeared again, half of his arm was gone!
In the meantime, after flashes of light and shadows, a beautiful girl clad in golden armor, emerged from the Void, and seemed to be filled with a heroic spirit. She had a delicate face, which had an extremely cold look. A white bone spear was in her hand, and there was blood on the top. Apparently, she was the one who had cut Jue Luo’s arm off.
“Qian, Qiangu!” Wen Xiaojing exclaimed with great surprise. But as she became too emotional, she then passed out directly.
“Xiaojing!” The girl dressed in armor, came straight to her. After looking at her with concern, she stared at Lyu Liang coldly and said, “I’m Lin Qiangu, Xiaojing’s friend. From now on, I’ll look after her!”
After she was done, she pulled Wen Xiaojing out from Fairy Purple Phoenix’s arms, and stuffed her inside her own cave residence, in her body. Then she turned around, pointed at Jue Luo, who was still in a daze, and said, “I’m Lin Qiangu from the Jiang Clan in the Sanctuary. You are a dead man!”
“Well, hey, Xiaojing…” Lyu Liang wanted to figure out the situation subconsciously. He thought that girl was certainly domineering, as she took Xiaojing away instantly, without even an explanation!
“Humph! Useless man!” Lin Qiangu did not even bother to listen, and directly made that embarrassing comment about him. The next second, she ran toward Jue Luo!
“Vileplume of the three golden flowers!” Jue Luo obviously knew who she was. Being stunned at first, he had a resolute look soon after, because there was no way back for him.
“Xiaojing has suffered so much after being at your side, and she almost lost her life…” Lin Qiangu muttered. “And now, I’ll take this chance to beat you up! What?”
In less than 30 minutes, Jue Luo’s broken arm had already grown back!
“I see… No wonder! It’s the Tianxuan Holy Rattan!” Lin Qiangu finally understood what was happening. Then, she said sharply, “Helping a man like you, I think it’s better to destroy it!”
Without any further delay, the two of them fought fiercely with each other the second they came face to face!
Evil aura oozed from Lin Qiangu’s body, while Jue Luo had also emitted tremendous yin qi. Each impact between them would cause the space around them to fluctuate wildly.
To everyone’s surprise, since they started fighting, Lin Qiangu had absolutely the upper hand!
After a short time of close combat, Jue Luo was struggling, trying desperately to keep a distance between them. However, Lin Qiangu would not allow it. She kept stabbing him all the time, each stab aiming directly at his face!
Lyu Liang was feeling both glad and worried. He was glad that they would be definitely rescued, but he was afraid… That new girl kept making fatal moves. If she did succeed in the end, was there any chance for his body to stay intact by that time? He really did not want to live with Jue Luo’s body for the rest of his life. He’d rather die…
Another 30 minutes passed. Jue Luo started burning his soul spirit again, but he still had a hard time withstanding Lin Qiangu’s attacks!
It was just that, even though there were a few holes on his body, they could heal automatically, so long as Jue Luo could manage to hold on for a little while.
At that moment, Jue Luo was basically a moving target. Except for withstanding and dodging, he almost lost his ability to attack.
He could not be blamed for that. While controlling a body that he had not totally adapted to, he could barely get himself raised to the level as a God Ancestor by burning the Divine Soul. Lin Qiangu, on the contrary, was a God Ancestor in her Early-stage indeed!
And there was also the fatal evil aura. Once he got near it, not only did his Divine Soul feel as it was being torn apart, his body also felt as it could crack any time. He had no hope of winning…
“Humph! Tianxuan Holy Rattan, break!” After a roar from Lin Qiangu, she moved quickly. A creepy beam of visible, gray air mass shifted to the top of Jue Luo’s in a flash. Then a long, thin bone arm reached out from the mass!
Jue Luo was about to dodge, but before he could do that, a cage made of bones suddenly blocked him!
Although he broke out of the cage at once, the bone arm had already fallen on his head. Then the bone arm made a slight grasp, which was followed by a shrill scream!
At that time, the shadow of a small piece of golden rattan came out of Jue Luo’s head. The bone arm caught it instantly, and immediately smashed it into pieces, which then floated everywhere!
“Wa!” Lin Qiangu spat out a mouthful of blood, but her eyes looked sharper. Smiling, she said, “Now let me see how you can heal yourself!”
With Jue Luo still stunned, Lin Qiangu whose aura had become much thicker, was already in front of him. Numerous stabs from the spear were again aimed at him!
After the time of several breaths, Jue Luo, whose body was riddled with holes fell directly onto the ground.
Although Lin Qiangu had said that she would crush Jue Luo, she also knew that Lyu Liang really wanted his own body back. Besides, when Wen Xiaojing woke up, she would also ask her about that.
“Tell me! How do you swap your bodies?” Lin Qiangu landed, with the point of her spear aiming at Jue Luo’s forehead. It looked like she could kill him any time.
However, Jue Luo, who was dying at the moment, was actually looking excited. There was no fear in his eyes. Instead, he started laughing, and his whole body sparkled with a golden light!
When Lin Qiangu headed there, she knew that Lyu Liang and Jue Luo had exchanged their bodies, but she had no idea how the change had been made! When she saw the strange state Jue Luo was in, she just froze instinctively.
Just at that moment, beams of golden light burst from inside Jue Luo’s body, shooting straight at Lin Qiangu, who had no time to dodge at all…
…
In the meantime, in a secret, invisible space in the stone forest between the Liu Family and the Zheng Family in the space of Goddess Nyu Wa, Zheng Xuan and brother and sister Liu stood side by side, looking quite solemn.
“Sister Xuan! You are the best, so you have to break out!” Liu Jiahao said in a grave tone. Then he turned to look at his little sister and said, “Xiao Wen, you still have not fully recovered from the injury last time. Just stay out of the fight!”
“No! They could make it here without anybody noticing. Although they had the help of traitors, there should also be top-level powerful figures in them! If I leave now, you are no match for them!” Zheng Xuan directly rejected the decision.
“Big brother, Sister Xuan! I’m almost healed. I can fight! I want to see who dares to provoke me!” Liu Jiawen bared her sharp teeth, clearly indicating her resolution.
“But…” Liu Jiahao still wanted to say something, when Zheng Xuan made a gesture to stop him. Then she burst out the aura of the late-stage God Ancestor!
Then, there were some noises outside. The three of them looked at each other, and rushed out holding their divine weapons at the same time!
Outside the house, they saw three black-robed men, of whom the leader was a short, fat dhuta, who was glaring at them viciously. After a while, he finally said, “You’re tough, little girl! You manage to escape from such a killing array! But, this time, you are not going to be so fortunate!”
“Bad guy, hunting us all the time!” Zheng Xuan’s face fell. Then she rushed forward with her water blue Nine-section Whip in hand, and her target was the dhuta!
“Kill them! Don’t waste time. It doesn’t matter if they are dead!” Dhuta waved his hand, and the two men behind him, who were covering themselves with black robes, rushed forward. Following them, the others started running forward, too.
As soon as Zheng Xuan started to attack the two black-robed men, she was surprised to find that each of them was capable enough to fight her, and that their auras were really hard to perceive!
On the other side, Liu Jiahao was also fighting with another black-robed man.
“Little girl, your life is mine!” Dhuta laughed coldly. He made a quick move, and then pounced on Liu Jiawen!
Just at that critical moment, a clear draconic roar was heard. Before everyone could get a clear look, a beam of blood light flashed out, and directly hacked at the area between the dhuta and Liu Jiawen!
“Life Taking Blood Thunder! It’s the descendant of the Limitation Bounds of Blood from the Blood Branch!” Dhuta was unusually shocked.
“Well? I did not think that anyone would recognize me! So, this fight will not be an easy task!” Jiang Yinglong appeared right in front of Liu Jiawen, blocking her from the enemy. He turned his head and said to her merrily, in a heroic tone, “Don’t worry, honey! I’m here, so no one can hurt you! I’m Jiang Yinglong, from the top family of the four influential families in the Sanctuary, the future master of the Jiang Clan. I’ll protect you!”
