Chapter 278: White Orchid Rain Festival (Sixty-one)
Although Man Wugui had dealt with Nan Huan and Bei Xi several times, it was obviously the first time that he had experienced Bei Xi's eloquence at such a close distance. The other party guessed what he wanted to hide with just a few words.
Seeing that Nan Huan had begun to absorb the black energy, she had to get rid of Bei Xi as soon as possible. Even though the anger on her face had exposed her current mood, she did not say a word in response to Bei Xi's ridicule.
I don't know if he is worried that the other party will notice something from the details, or if he has something on his mind and doesn't want to get too entangled with the other party.
She turned around, and the fan in her hand disappeared. Instead, she grabbed a black iron axe from the void and stabbed it directly towards Bei Xi.
Bei Xi was slightly stunned and raised his hand to block.
The two iron hammers, which were exactly the same in terms of material and touch, collided with each other, making a huge roar and bursting sparks. Neither side was willing to give in in terms of momentum.
Under this situation, the remaining few injured people couldn't get close at all, because everyone soon discovered that, whether in moves or attacks, Bei Xi was almost no different from Man Wugui. The two people were like twins, able to predict each other's next move at the same time, and the fight was very back-and-forth.
Putting aside the long-range attack skills, they suddenly realized that Man Wugui had been avoiding close-range attacks, probably to avoid exposing this point, but for some reason, she suddenly gave up hiding and started to use deadly moves.
"What? You gave up resistance completely after I said a few words?" Bei Xi seemed to be surprised for only a moment, and then a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "It seems that I have misjudged your ability. Did you just borrow the prestige of others to make such a big scene before?"
She was not an arrogant person, but at this moment she changed her previous image and became a bit unreasonable, pressing the other party with every word. No one knew what she wanted to do.
Man Wugui had a serious expression on his face. After resisting another attack from Bei Xi, he looked down at the other party's familiar and very annoying face, "You know nothing. You are just a complete clown here, jumping up and down. I'll tell you in secret."
When she said this, her eyes turned and she didn't know what she was thinking of. She actually showed a malicious smile on her face, like a child whispering something. She approached Bei Xi in this posture, "The person behind you is a fake from beginning to end."
She stared into Bei Xi's eyes, as if trying to get some secret emotions from the other's eyes, but Bei Xi's expression remained the same as always, and she turned a deaf ear to Man Wugui's words.
Having said that, he did not continue the topic. Instead, he put on a sympathetic look and looked through Bei Xi at Nan Huan behind her. "Do you think she can absorb the black energy? I think you have forgotten the lesson from last time."
The steady pupils finally reacted to these words. A sneer flashed across Man Wugui's heart. His other hand behind his back waved quickly, and the waveform that had just disappeared suddenly appeared beside Bei Xi.
Because of Man Wugui's attack, the opponent was temporarily stuck in place and unable to move. In addition, there were injured people and Nan Huan behind her. If she dodged, the waveform would probably attack them.
Bei Xi made the decision in just a few seconds. She used a little skill to pierce the iron axe in her hand into Man Wugui's shoulder. However, just as she was using the force to pierce deeper, she felt her lower back as if hit by something heavy.
Although he did not fall down because of the heavy blow because he was mentally prepared, the strength in his hands still weakened.
Man Wugui took a deep breath. Although the wound was not deep, due to the special nature of the iron axe, the damage caused by the wound was much greater than that caused by ordinary personal skills and props. However, it was obvious that the damage he caused to Bei Xi was greater. So although he was in pain physically, he still felt refreshed in his heart. However, this refreshment was accompanied by a certain anger.
Although Bei Xi was concerned about Nan Huan's safety, she did not dare to look back. After all, Man Wugui's attack had not ended yet. If she fell, everyone behind her would have no chance of survival.
She wiped the blood off her mouth and poked Man Wugui's sore spot. "Whether Anan can absorb the black energy depends on fate. If anything happens to her, I will stay here with her, but what about you?"
The iron axe fell heavily on Man Wugui's hand, and at the same time, an air arrow interrupted one of the waves' attacks. Bei Xi took a breath, "If anything happens to the evil god, you can only waste time with me here and watch from a distance. Compared with this, I don't think I am too lucky."
She looked at Man Wugui provocatively, but the words she said were very hurtful.
Sure enough, these words were like poking a rat's nest. Man Wugui glared at Bei Xi with eyes as if he wanted to bite off a piece of flesh from the other person, but because he had not much experience in bickering and did not know what to say in response, he fell silent, but the power of his attacks became stronger and stronger.
A hint of surprise flashed across Bei Xi's face, but it was quickly suppressed.
She was bickering with Man Wugui not simply for the sake of satisfying her desire to talk, but because she found that Man Wugui's power seemed to be weaker than before. She was unsure of his true strength, so she tried to use this method to make Man Wugui let down his guard and show his true strength.
The enemy is already in front of him. Even though he doesn't know how powerful the other party and the evil god are, Bei Xi still doesn't want to miss this opportunity. At least he has to find out the enemy's true strength.
Moreover, Man Wugui's performance was just as Bei Xi had expected. It was unclear whether the opponent was active or passive, and some of his strength had not been used. When he was angered, his aggressiveness would become stronger.
At this time, Bei Xi could see that Man Wugui was really worried about the condition of the evil god. The black air gathered from the thorn bushes was being continuously absorbed by Nan Huan. The evil god had lost his source of power and might be in some danger. At this time, Man Wugui should not hide her strength, but she seemed to be hesitant and refused to let go.
That's why Bei Xi didn't understand, or she felt that there might be other things she didn't know. Given her and Nan Huan's current situation, she was unwilling to miss any clue.
On the other side, President Barbie and a few others had surrounded the eldest lady, and her condition was definitely not good.
They originally thought that as long as the eldest lady could absorb the black energy, the crisis would be resolved. However, things were not as simple as they thought, because the eldest lady never woke up.
After these black air entered her body, it could be seen from the outside that they seemed to be running around in Nan Huan's body and were not absorbed at all. The expression on the eldest lady's face also seemed very painful.
Nan Huan wasn't feeling very good right now. She finally woke up and saw Bei Xi was being entangled. She knew that the other party was trying to buy time for her, so she absorbed the black air without any hesitation.
But the black air input from the thorn bush carried the mark of the evil god, and became somewhat uncontrollable after entering his body. The burning sensation in his body just now subsided a little, but he became more restless.
Nan Huan felt that the hunger in his body was not relieved, but was infinitely magnified. Even his health points strangely rose by one or two points, and then began to drop again. The alarm sounded again.
Nan Huan's eyes were not completely closed, and she could still see a vague figure of Bei Xi. Based on previous experience, the other party was no match for Man Wugui at all, not to mention that Man Wugui knew many things they didn't know. Nan Huan was anxious to absorb the black air, but she was also worried about Bei Xi, but her current situation did not improve after absorbing the black air.
Bei Xi was attacked by Bo Wa again. This time she spat out blood, but still held the iron axe and refused to let Man Wugui leave. Blood flowed down her pale cheeks, forming blood flowers in the darkness.
"How long can you hold on?" Man Wugui spoke again, his tone full of mockery and anxiety, "You are no match for me."
When she said this, there was no smug look on her face. She was just calmly stating a fact, and there was even a hint of anger on her face.
"Hold on until I can't hold on anymore." Bei Xi curled the corners of his mouth and responded casually, but the strength in his hand did not weaken, and the iron axe fell on Man Wugui's left arm.
The black gas in Nan Huan's body was increasing, and soon she felt that her whole body was like a balloon that was constantly growing, but her health points did not increase.
In her blurred vision, she had already seen Beixi's slightly trembling hand behind her back, and she knew that Beixi could not hold on for much longer.
Nan Huan just felt that the black air entering her body had a familiar feeling. She always felt that it was just a little bit missing, but she couldn't remember anything. This little bit could never be made up.
In a trance, she seemed to remember the scene she had just seen and heard what Bei Xi said.
"I'm sorry I didn't stop her, and I'm about to be torn into pieces, but no matter where I am, I will always only believe in you."
The familiar tone made her unable to tell whether it was fiction or reality. The kiss on her head made her feel at ease, and the mark that was implanted into her body with the kiss was activated at this moment.
The golden light enveloped his whole body, and the black air seemed to have found a home instantly and was no longer restless. Even though it carried the mark of the evil god, it could still be absorbed by Nanhuan.
The health points were increasing at an exponential rate, and the injuries on Nan Huan's body were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The remaining injured people discovered something was wrong at the first time. The eldest lady was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. President Barbie was surprised and wanted to share the good news with President Yi. But when she turned around, she found that President Yi didn't know what was going on and was staring at her hand in disbelief.
Man Wugui's attack had already landed on Bei Xi's forehead, but Bei Xi seemed not to feel it and just stood there in a daze.
