Chapter 190 What if I don't choose either of them?
Wang Er let out a painful groan and looked down at his right shoulder in disbelief.
A thin, sharp icicle pierced his shoulder without warning!
Blood gushed out quickly, staining his clothes red.
He, a third-tier ability user, was completely unaware and reacted before someone pierced his shoulder.
The intense pain and humiliation instantly overwhelmed Wang Er, causing his energy to surge wildly, and he was about to launch a reckless counterattack.
"Wang Er, come back!" The leader behind him spoke again, his voice even colder and sterner than before, carrying a clear warning.
Wang Er trembled, clenching his teeth tightly. In the end, he could only suppress his overwhelming anger and killing intent, clutching his bleeding shoulder, and staggered back to his own camp.
His eyes were fixed on Lu Yuyang, who had attacked him, with the intensity of a venomous snake.
With things having escalated to this point, Josie no longer had the desire to stay there, drinking tea and waiting for Chen Han.
This group is clearly not to be trifled with; continuing to entangle them will only make things more troublesome.
"Let's go," she tugged at Lu Yuyang and whispered.
Lu Yuyang understood, and the ice spike in his hand quietly dissipated, but he remained highly vigilant, protecting Qiao Xi tightly behind him, and turned to leave.
"etc!"
The middle-aged man who was in the lead spoke again, his voice calm but carrying an undeniable pressure.
"You hurt my people, and you're not going to give me an explanation? You just want to walk away like this?"
Lu Yuyang stopped, completely shielding Qiao Xi behind him, and slowly turned around. His gaze behind the mask was as cold as a knife: "Explanation? What other explanation do you want?"
He could clearly sense that the man opposite him who had spoken was also a fourth-tier ability user, and his strength was probably no less than his own.
The other side has more people and stronger overall strength. Once a fight breaks out, they will definitely not gain the upper hand and may even suffer a great loss.
But if he had to do it all over again, he would still choose to take action.
No one is allowed to bully Josie under his nose, not even a hair on her head!
The middle-aged man's gaze swept over Wang Er, whose face was deathly pale and whose shoulder was still bleeding, and he said calmly, "Simple. Two choices: one, you cut off your own arm as an apology; two..."
His gaze swept past Lu Yuyang and landed on Qiao Xi behind him, with a hint of scrutiny and amusement, "...Leave the woman next to you here."
Lu Yuyang's aura instantly became extremely dangerous, and his chilling killing intent almost materialized.
He slowly and deliberately asked, "What if... I don't choose either of them?"
The middle-aged man seemed to have anticipated his response, a cold smile playing on his lips as he waved his hand dismissively.
"Then... I'll have no choice but to ask you all to stay!"
Before he finished speaking, the dozen or so superhumans behind him moved instantly, their figures flashing as they skillfully spread out, surrounding Lu Yuyang, Qiao Xi, the fat man, and several of his men!
Lu Yuyang stared at them warily, then lowered his voice and quickly said to Qiao Xi, "Xi Xi, if a fight breaks out, immediately transform and leave. Wait for me behind the small hill outside the town. I will definitely come find you!"
Josie pursed her lips. How could she possibly leave alone under these circumstances?
More people mean more strength. Moreover, her skills combined with her shapeshifting abilities often have a surprising effect on opponents who rely too much on their abilities but neglect close combat training.
However, the other party clearly had no intention of giving them any time to negotiate.
The middle-aged man in the lead poured himself a cup of tea and casually ordered, "Take them down!"
Upon receiving the command, the energy around the dozen or so superhumans instantly erupted, multicolored supernatural lights lit up, and fireballs, wind blades, ground spikes, metal shuttles...
Various attacks poured down on Lu Yuyang and his group, who were surrounded in the center, like a storm.
"Everyone be careful!"
Lu Yuyang roared, and a chilling aura emanated from his body. A thick ice wall instantly rose from the ground, blocking the fiercest first wave of ranged attacks, with ice shards flying everywhere.
He led the fat man and several elite men, like tigers released from their cages, and fiercely met the oncoming enemy.
At the very moment this chaos erupted, Qiao Xi, who was being tightly protected behind Lu Yuyang, vanished like a ghost!
Only a very faint energy fluctuation remained in place.
Lu Yuyang caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of his eye and felt somewhat relieved, thinking that she had obeyed his words and transformed to leave.
He immediately focused all his energy on the battle before him, and ice spikes and icicles seemed to come alive as they swirled and shot around him, instantly engaging in a fierce fight with a power-type ability user.
However, the next second!
Just diagonally in front of Lu Yuyang, behind an enemy who was grinning maliciously and preparing to unleash his lightning power, the air rippled slightly like water.
Josie's figure appeared silently, like a lotus emerging from the darkness!
Her movements were so fast that they left only a blur. Without any hesitation, she plunged the exceptionally sharp alloy dagger in her right hand into her vital area from behind with precision and ruthlessness.
"Pfft!"
The sound of sharp weapons piercing bodies was exceptionally clear and chilling amidst the clamor of battle cries and the explosions of supernatural powers.
The lightning ability user's body stiffened abruptly, the sneer in his eyes instantly replaced by unbelievable terror and disorientation. The lightning around him crackled twice before going out completely.
He didn't even have time to let out a scream before collapsing to the ground, blood quickly seeping out.
All of this happened too fast, too suddenly!
It wasn't until Josie disappeared again as if she had melted into thin air that the other side realized with horror that they had lost another person.
"Oh no! That woman has the ability to become invisible! Watch out for a sneak attack!" someone cried out in alarm.
Panic instantly spread throughout the opposing camp.
An invisible enemy, skilled at delivering a fatal blow, poses an even greater threat than Lu Yuyang, who launches a frontal assault.
The encirclement they had formed by relying on their numerical advantage has now become their own shackles.
Everyone became hesitant in the battle, afraid to attack the enemy in front of them with all their might, lest the elusive dagger suddenly appear from behind or to their side if they were distracted.
This invisible pressure greatly alleviated the direct pressure on Lu Yuyang and his group.
"Xixi! You..." Lu Yuyang was anxious, but he also knew that this was not the time to lecture.
Taking advantage of the moment, he suddenly exerted his strength, and an extremely sharp icicle whistled through the throat of a fire-type ability user whose movements were slightly slowed due to distraction.
In the blink of an eye, the other side lost two people!
The middle-aged man in the lead had a livid face, clearly not expecting his opponent to be so troublesome, especially the invisible female superhuman.
He quickly calmed down and shouted sharply, "Don't panic! Ah Long, Tu Hou, you two keep a close eye on the energy fluctuations around us. As soon as that woman appears, lock onto her and kill her with all your might! The rest of you, attack these men with all your might and take care of them first!"
