Hua Mujian suddenly realized that he had not only underestimated Bai Ying, but that Bai Ying had been manipulating this so-called competition from the very beginning.
Bai Ying's strength far exceeded his expectations. Not only could she kill the dragon with a single sword strike, she also knew how to free these demonic beasts from her control.
Such a person is someone I absolutely cannot afford to offend.
He actually wanted to fight her in the ring!
Hua Mujian's previous resentment and anger were now replaced by deep fear. His legs went weak and he could barely stand. He could only watch helplessly as Kui Lang approached him step by step.
Of all people to mess with, why did he have to provoke Bai Ying?
"No!" Hua Mujian screamed in terror, his voice filled with despair, the piercing cry cutting through the tense air. He struggled to escape, but he was only at the Golden Core stage, how could he possibly be a match for Kui Lang, who was at the late Nascent Soul stage?
Kui Lang exuded a strong bloody aura, its eyes burning with bloodlust. It leaped high into the air, its powerful front paws slamming down with immense force.
With a muffled "thud," half of Hua Mujian's body was instantly smashed into a bloody mess by this claw, his internal organs clearly visible, and fragments of flesh and blood splattered in the air.
"Ah!" Hua Mujian's shrill scream echoed in the air above the arena. He flew out uncontrollably and crashed heavily onto the edge of the arena. His body rolled on the ground in pain, his hands tightly covering his wounds, and blood gushed out from between his fingers.
At this moment, Hua Mujian still clung to a sliver of hope, frantically praying that Kui Lang would attack indiscriminately as before, so that he might have a chance to survive.
However, the instant Kui Lang turned to look at Bai Ying, Bai Ying merely glanced at it indifferently, her calm gaze seemingly containing boundless majesty. Kui Lang seemed greatly frightened; its fur stood on end, and it even took a step back in fear. Without hesitation, it turned and roared as it charged madly at Hua Mujian once more.
Hua Mujian's face instantly turned ashen, his eyes wide open, filled with fear and despair.
Did he see wrong? Is Kui Lang afraid of Bai Ying?
His mouth was wide open, as if he wanted to shout out words of surrender. At this moment, he didn't care about saving face anymore; survival was his only thought.
But it was too late. The wolf pounced on him like a black lightning bolt, its sharp claws aimed straight for his face.
With a sharp crack, Hua Mujian's nose was instantly shattered, his face a bloody mess, and his eyeballs were nearly gouged out. At the same time, another claw, carrying destructive power, slammed heavily into his dantian. With a muffled thud, Hua Mujian's dantian was instantly pulverized, and his golden core turned to dust in this attack.
Hua Mujian's face instantly contorted in pain, his body convulsing uncontrollably, almost causing him to faint. He knew that from this moment on, he was completely crippled, and all his years of cultivation had been destroyed.
Just then, a buzzing sound came, and the screen of the arena was finally opened. Kui Lang sensed danger, and a hint of vigilance flashed in its wild eyes. It turned around abruptly and, like a black whirlwind, flew away into the distance, disappearing from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.
There were also some members of the Hua family present, but they were just his lackeys who had come with Hua Mujian. At this moment, these lackeys were completely terrified.
They immediately notified the Hua family to come over. Hua Mujian was a key figure being groomed by the Hua family, but now he had turned into this state.
The cultivators from the Bai family were all dumbfounded. Knowing how much the Hua family valued Hua Mujian, the higher-ups of the Bai family all rushed over to help Hua Mujian with his treatment.
When the Hua family arrived at the scene and saw the horrific sight before them, several people nearly lost their footing. Hua Mujian's mother let out a piercing wail, her eyes instantly becoming bloodshot, tears streaming down her face like a burst dam. She rushed towards Hua Mujian without hesitation, kneeling beside him, her hands trembling as she tried to embrace him, yet afraid to touch his wounds.
She had already heard the reason why Hua Mujian had become like this on the way, and now, seeing her son's miserable state, the hatred in her heart was instantly ignited. She suddenly drew her sword, which gleamed coldly in the sunlight, and with bloodshot eyes, like a mad beast, she thrust it in the direction of Bai Ying.
Upon seeing this, the Bai family members' expressions changed drastically. They immediately stood up, their spiritual energy surging, and instantly took action to block the attack. The Bai family's Great Elder flashed forward, blocking in front of Bai Ying. He formed hand seals, and a spiritual energy barrier instantly rose, blocking Hua's mother's attack.
"what you up to?"
"She's the one who killed my son! I'm going to avenge him!" Hua Mujian's mother screamed hoarsely, her face filled with madness and rage.
The eldest elder of the Bai family frowned instantly. He took a step forward and said in a deep voice, "The one who harmed Hua Mujian was the Kui Wolf that he released himself. What does it have to do with Bai Ying?"
Although the Hua family members also disliked Bai Ying, they knew in their hearts that the main fault lay with Hua Mujian. In his eagerness to win, he recklessly released a powerful demonic beast that even he couldn't control, leading to the current situation. The Hua family patriarch, Hua Zhentian, shook his head along with his mother, his expression complex, signaling her to stop making a scene and avoid further embarrassment for the Hua family.
But Hua's mother seemed to be blinded by hatred. She roared angrily, "It's her fault! When that wolf attacked my child, she could have intervened, but she just stood by and watched."
The Bai family was shocked by her shamelessness. The Kui Wolf was released by Hua Mujian himself, so what did Bai Ying have to do with him being injured?
However, considering the friendly relations between the two countries, they are still thinking of an explanation.
"Although Bai Ying was also at fault in this matter, she was probably too scared to help."
Unexpectedly, Bai Ying said directly:
Why should I save him?
