Chu Hongluan scoffed coldly, and with a sweep of her blade, the poisonous gas dissipated! She continued to close the distance with the High Priest, turning the tables and unleashing three consecutive slashes—a chop, a cut, and a thrust—aiming for his vitals!
The high priest didn't even have a chance to cast a spell. She could only duck and leap out, narrowly avoiding the flash of the blade, breaking out in a cold sweat! However, Chu Hongluan clearly had no intention of letting her go. Her phoenix eyes gleamed like swords, extremely cold and fierce!
His broadsword pressed forward relentlessly! Swish, swish, swish—three more slashes, fast, accurate, and ruthless! Creating spectacular sword flourishes!
The high priestess could only swing her scepter like a club, clanging and sparks flying everywhere, and with each clang, her face grew paler.
Good heavens! This is the most precious treasure of their witch clan!
In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged hundreds of blows in the void. The high priest who had previously been so arrogant in front of Gu Chunxiao was now being beaten so badly that he was running away with his head in his hands!
The battle raged on, and Gu Chunxiao stared blankly, her frail body swaying precariously. Liu Jinghong caught her and poured an entire bottle of nitroglycerin into her mouth.
Gu Chunxiao nearly choked to death and coughed violently for a while.
She pried Liu Jinghong's hand away and stood stubbornly in place, her dark eyes clearly reflecting the graceful figure in the sky above.
Chu Hongluan seemed to sense her gaze, turned around and smiled: "I'm late."
The high priest was both surprised and angry to see that she still had the energy to multitask: "You're not a member of the Jade Maiden Sect at all! You're lying to me!"
The high priest gritted his teeth and roared angrily.
Chu Hongluan's heart skipped a beat. She remained silent, but as she turned her head, the longsword's attack became even more ferocious, bringing with it gusts of wind! The high priest raised his scepter to block, and was immediately struck so hard that he spat out a mouthful of blood!
She sneered, "Getting angry out of embarrassment? I knew it!"
Chu Hongluan had no intention of replying, and instead struck out heavily with her left palm!
The blow struck him squarely in the chest! The high priest was instantly sent flying several feet away, and he had to frantically mobilize his spiritual power to stabilize himself. He staggered several steps before finally coming to a stop!
He stopped, then clutched his chest and vomited a large amount of blood.
"Don't be cowardly! Don't think I don't know who you are!"
Chu Hongluan's eyes grew increasingly cold. This high priest... cannot be allowed to live!
Seeing Chu Hongluan charge at him again with her sword drawn, clearly intending to kill her to silence her, the High Priest, in desperation, unleashed all her spiritual power and shouted to the entire Witch Clan, her voice resounding throughout the universe: "Today, the ancestor of the Sword Sect killed me! All believers of the Witch Clan shall remember this blood feud! One day, blood will be repaid!"
In the darkness of the night, Chu Hongluan's sword, which had been slashing like lightning, paused for a moment and nearly fell from the sky.
In that instant, the High Priestess took off running! She channeled all her spiritual energy to its limit! Only one thought occupied her mind: Back to the snake's lair! Back to the snake's lair! The formation would protect her! The snake god would bless her!
Chu Hongluan stood there awkwardly.
The patriarch of the Blade Sect?
I am grateful to the patriarch of the Knife Sect for taking the blame.
Chu Hongluan swiftly landed beside Gu Chunxiao and immediately reached out to check her pulse. Upon doing so, the bloodthirsty aura around her surged like a tidal wave, expanding several times over!
If she had been any later...
Chu Hongluan felt a chill run down her spine. She took a deep breath and said in a cold, piercing voice, "Wait for me a moment. I'll go and bring that old hag's head back so you can use it as a ball."
Liu Jinghong instinctively moved closer and hugged her tightly: "The word 'gan' (干) signifies the shifting of stars and the turning of the tides."
The two figures vanished before her eyes. Gu Chunxiao blinked, and after a long while, she suddenly smiled.
very nice.
It was a nightmare, but when I woke up, everything was back to normal.
"Spring Dawn!"
It's Song Nanhe's voice!
Gu Chunxiao turned around abruptly, and in a flash, she was tightly embraced by his warm arms!
“Senior Brother Song…”
She felt a warm, damp sensation on her shoulder, and she could feel Song Nanhe trembling all over.
Behind Song Nanhe, Wang Sheng and Li Dazhuang were already fighting with the Wu Clan believers who had come from all directions to provide support.
"Don't be afraid... I'm alright now."
Gu Chunxiao struggled to raise her hand, wanting to hug him back and give him an awkward smile.
She ultimately failed to do it; her vision gradually darkened, and her consciousness seemed to shrink back into her body.
I'm so tired... I want to sleep for a while...
At the same time, Chu Hongluan and her companion had already teleported behind the High Priest. Before they could even stand still, the blade's edge had already moved!
The high priest suddenly felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end and instinctively rolled to the ground! He narrowly avoided the attack!
At this moment, she was half-squatting on the ground, her back only a step away from the hundred arrays within the array. Although she did not expect Chu Hongluan to arrive so quickly, she was not flustered at all, and even showed a bit of smug satisfaction.
The high priest confronted the two men, letting out a wild laugh: "It seems my life is spared today! Once I recover my strength, I will lead my Witch Clan followers to storm the Northern Blade Sect and avenge today's humiliation!"
Chu Hongluan hesitated, her expression complex.
But in the high priest's eyes, this was nothing short of resentment! He deeply regretted his actions!
Then the high priest nimbly performed a backflip! He was about to land in the formation with an extremely graceful posture!
Then--
A magnificent parabola sent the high priest flying, landing face-first on the ground with a thud, narrowly missing his front teeth.
Chu Hongluan's lips twitched, and then she watched as the high priest scrambled to his feet, stubbornly plunging back into the formation, only to fall flat on his face once more.
......
She struggled to her feet, screaming hysterically, "Impossible! These hundred formations are the culmination of the wisdom of our ancestors over millions of years! They couldn't possibly exclude me!"
Chu Hongluan glanced at Liu Jinghong, who shrugged, his face clearly saying: How lonely it is to be invincible.
