The situation was tense. Linghu Zhou saw Xu Yuehuai surrounded by three people and wanted to help, but he was firmly blocked by the people in front of him and couldn't move at all. For a moment, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent. He gripped the sword in his hand even tighter. The next second, a piece of yellow paper appeared at his fingertips. If Xu Yuehuai had turned around to look, she would have found this thing very familiar. It was the talisman paper she had given to Linghu Zhou a long time ago, and she was using it again at this moment.
The explosive talisman instantly exploded on the black-clad man. Just as the talisman approached him, he clearly wanted to remove it, but the talisman seemed to have eyes and went straight for him, instantly blasting the black-clad man into pieces.
After dealing with the men in black, Linghu Zhou immediately joined Xu Yuehuai's battle. Bai Ze held off two men in black on his own with ease, which was already a great effort to keep them from disturbing Xu Yuehuai.
So now Xu Yuehuai and Linghu Zhou are facing three extraordinary men in black. Xu Yuehuai's light blue clothes are soaked with blood, staining the original light blue red. But these bloodstains do not make her look disheveled. Instead, they make her shine, like a bright and enchanting flower blooming in a thicket of thorns.
She raised her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth with her sleeve, a smug smile playing on her lips, her eyes filled with disdain. "You're all nothing special. Three of you against one of me, and you still haven't been able to kill me after all this time. You're utterly incompetent."
Upon hearing this provocative remark, the three men fighting Xu Yuehuai felt a surge of nameless rage. Especially after seeing that one of their teammates had been killed, the others glared angrily at the young man approaching them, shouting, "You dare to kill the third brother!"
"Boss, stop wasting your breath on them. Third Brother is dead, and they will all be buried with him today! As for this divine beast, take it back for your brother's pet to play with!" Another man's eyes were filled with anger, as if he wanted to devour the two men in front of him.
Xu Yuehuai's eyes showed no fear. On the contrary, she looked at the three people in front of her calmly. The young man who had just arrived still had a murderous intent and arrogance. For a moment, Xu Yuehuai seemed to see the unrestrained Linghu Zhou from back then.
He looked even better like that. "Pah! I think you're all just talking nonsense. So what if I killed him! He's nothing special. He only lasted a few moves with me before he was blown to bits! Tsk tsk tsk, what a pity. By the way, it'll be quite troublesome for you to take his body back with you, since this whole area is full of his body parts."
Linghu Zhou spoke in a smug tone, as if afraid of provoking the other party. The one who called him "Third Brother" was actually the Fifth Brother, whose eyes were bloodshot and teeth were grinding. "Boss! They're too arrogant! Isn't this just going too far?!"
The leader narrowed his already small eyes, which darted between Xu Yuehuai and Linghu Zhou. "Young men, it's normal to be proud and ambitious. I just hope you can still speak and be so arrogant later on, instead of kneeling on the ground begging me to let you go!"
A great battle was about to break out. The five people were fighting each other. Linghu Zhou had just gone through a big battle, but he did not show any signs of fatigue. His movements became faster and faster, and his figure became a blur. Xu Yuehuai was not to be outdone. She took out some talismans. These talismans had not been used before, but now they came in handy.
Everyone had noticed the explosion earlier, so when they saw the talisman again, the two people fighting Xu Yuehuai remained highly vigilant, ready to destroy it with fire-attribute spiritual power as soon as it came near.
The talisman slipped from Xu Yuehuai's hand and headed towards the enemy. However, to their surprise, the talisman wasn't aimed at them, but rather at the Fifth Brother on the other side. The Fifth Brother was fighting Linghu Zhou alone, and his strength was even greater than that of the Third Brother. Therefore, even Linghu Zhou found it difficult to deal with him.
The fifth brother was focused and had no idea that Xu Yuehuai would sneak up on him. By the time he realized it, it was too late. The talisman was already stuck to his body. The fifth brother's eyes were fixed. The next second, he cut off his own arm without hesitation. Blood splattered everywhere, and his screams echoed through the sky.
This all happened in a mere five seconds. After throwing the talisman, Xu Yuehuai immediately returned to her battle. The eldest and second eldest brothers glanced at the situation on the fifth brother's side and were utterly shocked, "Fifth brother!"
The second brother was furious, his eyes bloodshot as he stared at Xu Yuehuai as if he were a dead object. "You actually resorted to underhanded tactics! Since you dared to do this, you must pay the price!"
As he spoke, an even sharper sword aura shot towards Xu Yuehuai. The two attacked one after the other. Xu Yuehuai no longer had the energy to pay attention to Linghu Zhou and focused on dealing with the two in front of her.
The Fifth Brother, having lost an arm, felt as if he had severed half of his strength. His eyes were filled with boundless hatred. The next second, the arm lying on the ground exploded, bursting into pieces of flesh in the air, which stained the two men. The Fifth Brother felt nauseous, but he endured the pain and attacked Linghu Zhou with deadly moves, not hesitating to burn his own life essence to drag Linghu Zhou down to hell.
He lost an arm and would essentially be a cripple, but before he became crippled, he was determined to drag someone along with him! Linghu Zhou was his target.
Xu Yuehuai suffered numerous injuries again, was knocked away, and crashed heavily to the ground. She felt a metallic taste in her throat, tilted her head, and spat out a mouthful of blood. Bai Ze, seeing this, was startled and cried out, "Master!"
She shouted anxiously, no longer bothering to play with the two people in front of her. She only wanted to finish the job quickly and then go check on Xu Yuehuai. However, the two people in front of her were much more difficult to deal with than she had imagined.
She roared, unleashing the pressure of a divine beast. The two people in front of her hesitated slightly, and Bai Ze seized the opportunity, stepping forward and swatting one of them away with a single claw. When facing only one person, her abilities completely overwhelmed the opponent.
While fighting with Lao Wu, Linghu Zhou glanced back at Xu Yuehuai lying on the ground. He was anxious, which gave Lao Wu an opportunity to slash his shoulder with his sword. Linghu Zhou felt the pain and took two steps back. He could only look seriously at his opponent again and pray that Xu Yuehuai would not be hurt.
Xu Yuehuai got up from the ground, rubbing her aching shoulder, and looked at the two men in front of her with a sinister gaze. The eldest and second eldest were very arrogant. "You should pay the price for what you did."
The same words were met with another attack.
