Chapter 921 - Mutually Destructive Tactic (1/2)
“Hellhounds! These damned things! Why did she summon them out again?!”
“Why are we so unlucky this time? Why couldn’t they have been chickens, pigs, or sheep?”
“Oh, My God! She actually summoned four at once…”
Seeing that the Little Witch had summoned four Hellhounds at one time, Xiao Yulong and all the students around him exclaimed in dismay.
Having fought with Hellhounds in succession in recent days, they were very familiar with this kind of demonic beast. The Hellhound was ranked the top among the sixth-level demonic beasts. One Hellhound was equivalent to a master at the final stage of the Voiding Realm.
Although there were many people on You Wanjian’s side, You Wanjian had to deal with Murong Jinghong. Among the remaining ten people, the highest cultivation was the late stage of the Voiding Realm. In a one-on-one fight, they were no match for these Hellhounds.
Even if the ten of them worked together, they were still at a disadvantage based on their overall strength.
Right now, the Little Witch was no longer as mischievous as before. Her expression was incredibly serious. Her eyes contained severe killing intent.
Qin Haodong was injured because he tried to save her but these people wanted to kill her little brother, which was unacceptable to her in any case.
“Bite them to death for me!”
Under the Little Witch’s order, the four Hellhounds’ eyes flickered with blood-red viciousness. They howled and threw themselves at Xiao Yulong and the others.
Seeing that his side was at a disadvantage, You Wanjian also knew that it was time to end the battle quickly. He rushed to Murong Jinghong in a flash.
“Those who stand in my way will die!”
He let loose a thunderous roar and thrust his sword at Murong Jinghong’s chest.
“Bastard, scram!”
Murong Jinghong brandished her Jinghong Sword and swung it at his long sword.
You Wanjian held an ordinary long sword in his hand. He did not dare to fight the Jinghong Sword head-on. Thus, he quickly changed his tactic and fought with Murong Jinghong.
His cultivation was already a notch higher than Murong Jinghong’s. Moreover, Murong Jinghong had been slightly injured in the explosion of Spirit just now.
In addition, she had to block You Wanjian’s way all the time. She couldn’t let him hurt Qin Haodong. Her loss was You Wanjian’s gain. Therefore, although she had the help of the Jinghong Sword, she was still at an extreme disadvantage.
After a few rounds of fighting, You Wanjian pierced Murong Jinghong’s arm.
You Wanjian shouted, “Jinghong Fairy, you are no match for me at all. I just want to kill that guy, Qin Haodong. I don’t want to make things difficult for you. Get out of the way!”
Murong Jinghong’s eyes were red. She shouted in a stern voice, “If you want to kill my junior brother, you must do it over my dead body first.”
“You forced me to do this.”
You Wanjian gritted his teeth. His sword skill became mightier. He took out his most powerful skill, the Life-threatening Three Swords.
This was his most powerful sword skill. He didn’t use it at all in daily life.
Murong Jinghong scrambled to dodge the first two attacks. The third thrust plunged deeply into her right chest.
You Wanjian shouted with a crazed look, “Are you going to give up or not?”
Murong Jinghong ignored the wound on her body and shouted firmly, “No! Kill me if you dare!”
“Then go to hell!”
The people around him were being chased by Hellhounds. Qin Haodong could wake up at any time.
You Wanjian no longer cared about anything else. The long sword in his hand turned into a flowing light again and stabbed toward the left of Murong Jinghong’s chest.
This time, Murong Jinghong did not dodge. She raised the Jinghong Sword in her hand and thrust it at You Wanjian at the same time. This was a tactic where neither side gained any advantage.
“Bitch, you’re risking your life for another man.”
Murong Jinghong’s desperate fighting provoked You Wanjian even more. He did not dodge but accelerated his movements. In his opinion, his speed was much faster than Murong Jinghong’s after she was seriously injured.
He would stab her to death before the Jinghong Sword could hurt him.
Seeing that You Wanjian did not dodge, Murong Jinghong’s eyes flashed with excitement.
Just as You Wanjian’s long sword was about to pierce her chest, a silver shield suddenly appeared in her hand. It was the treasure she had just obtained.
This was all an elaborate trap set by Murong Jinghong. She knew that she was no match for You Wanjian in this situation, so after being seriously injured, she used this mutually destructive tactic to deceive the other side.
You Wanjian’s long sword hit the silver shield with a clanging sound. It didn’t work. At this time, the Jinghong Sword had already reached his chest, so it was too late for him to dodge.
“Puff!” Although You Wanjian tried his best to dodge, the Jinghong Sword still pierced his right chest.
“Ah!”
You Wanjian let out a scream. The Jinghong Sword was incomparably sharp. Now it almost pierced through his chest. His injury was even more serious than Murong Jinghong’s. He fell to the ground with a thud.
Seeing that she had succeeded, a hint of joy flashed across Murong Jinghong’s face. Then everything went black as she collapsed onto the ground.
Xiao Yulong was desperately waving the long sword in his hand to block a Hellhound in front of him. When he saw that You Wanjian was seriously injured and couldn’t get up, he panicked. His defense was immediately broken through by the Hellhound.
Seeing three heads with three mouths wide open appear in front of him, he quickly stabbed them with his sword.
Although this sword continuously pierced through two heads of the Hellhound, the third bloody mouth still bit down fiercely on his left arm.
The Hellhound was incredibly vicious. With a cracking sound, its left arm was directly torn off and dripped with blood.
