Chapter 1394 In the Dark...
But Song Chunxue had no chance to escape. The thing attacked her the next moment, the triangular pyramid waving in front of her, trying to attract the monster's attention.
But the monster seemed more interested in filling its stomach, and Song Chunxue was a rare delicacy.
"Overlord, have no worries!"
"yes!"
"It's here!" Wuyou said in a deep, old man's voice. "We've met a tough opponent today. If we can get its inner core, I feel the triangular pyramid will awaken!"
The tyrannical king spoke in a measured tone, “Master Song, this triangular pyramid is no ordinary object. It seems to be searching for something, like a creature looking for food, the kind that is extremely hungry.”
Song Chunxue also noticed that the triangular pyramid had hit the monster's hard shell several times, just like when she was a child and she was anxiously cracking walnuts.
Unfortunately, the triangular pyramid was too small; it was the one that was smashed and thrown into the water by the monster, disappearing without a trace.
"Behind us!" Huo Xiang shouted from the corner. "Run! Run out, or the cave will collapse."
Taking advantage of her small size, Song Chunxue circled around the stone pillars twice, watching the monster angrily smash the rocks.
"And what about you? What about the people outside?"
Patchouli said apologetically, "It seems to be only interested in you."
Song Chunxue gritted her teeth, "I knew you had no good intentions. Just you wait, once we get out of here I'll be an old man, and I'll definitely snatch Huo Yu away!"
"I can apologize, cough cough cough..."
The monster was a full ten feet tall, and it smashed half of the cave in a few swift movements. Song Chunxue ran out, leaving behind the words, "Pay your dad back!"
Huo Xiang watched the figure obscured by the dust and mist grow farther and farther away. A clod of earth fell and hit him on the forehead, but he didn't feel any pain at all.
He smirked, "My father died a long time ago. Pay me back, and let Xiaoyu go..."
Song Chunxue fought the monster in the mountain stream for less than half an hour before she ran out of energy.
"This thing is too tough to deal with. Let's run. You two cover for me; I can't fight it anymore."
She hasn't fully recovered yet; the intense stress causes her to tremble uncontrollably whenever she pauses to rest.
[Wait, the triangular pyramid is hitting its head. Just hold on a little longer, victory is just around the corner!]
[...]
"Buzz~~"
The commotion caused Song Chunxue, who was wielding the Overlord weapon to parry the monster, to suddenly lose her balance and fall from the height!
"Wait a minute..."
"careful."
The fear of falling was suddenly abruptly cut off, and Song Chunxue landed steadily in someone's arms. The faint scent of sandalwood wafted into her nostrils, probing deep into her soul.
"Stand here and leave it to us." Xie Zheng, sword in hand, leaped up to a higher place.
Song Chunxue saw that Master Han had also arrived!
His snake-bone whip, like vines, was tightly wrapped around the monster's leg.
The triangular pyramid continued to hum, as if vibrating in Song Chunxue's mind. She gritted her teeth, gripped the Overlord tightly, rested for a while, and then rushed forward to fight.
This was the most difficult and strenuous fight she had ever encountered, reminding her of the phrase "like an egg hitting a rock."
"Use formations, your chess formation!"
Master Han's voice suddenly reminded Song Chunxue.
"yes!"
"Its neck is its Achilles' heel," Huo Xiang said, supported by Huo Yu. "We can't let it get away!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
During the exchange of blows, Song Chunxue accidentally discovered that she was most effective at slashing this thing!
As the 180 chess pieces exploded into dust, a cloud of blood mist descended. Song Chunxue instinctively leaped into the air to catch the inner core that glowed with a dark purple light.
"Bang!"
The triangular pyramid struck the inner core, shattering it without wasting a single drop of powder.
In that instant, Song Chunxue felt as if her brain had been ripped open, the pain causing her vision to go black. What followed was a flood of unfamiliar memories, like scenes from a dream, crashing into her mind.
Her ears were ringing, and she couldn't hear anyone else.
All she could see were people walking towards her anxiously, their mouths opening and closing as they spoke.
"Hiss~"
A sharp pain shot through her head, and she was about to kneel down when someone pulled her to her feet. "Ah Xue... Song Chunxue!"
