Chapter 203 - Martial Emperor(4)
Guo Fan only caught a glimpse of it, but with his current eyesight, even without the aid of Spiritual Energy, he could see several miles away. Picking up a bow and nocking an arrow with such precision would be effortless.
Therefore, despite the distance, he could clearly see that the human figure within the Strange Beast group was shockingly Pann Xiaoying, who should have been dead long ago!
Whether in appearance or form, she was undeniably the evil sect disciple from the Nether Cliff.
But Pann Xiaoying couldn't possibly still be alive!
Guo Fan was certain that in that situation, Pann Xiaoying's legs and knees had been severed. She had no Spiritual Energy left in her body. Even if she had some healing medicine hidden, surrounded by Strange Beasts, there was no chance of survival.
Was someone impersonating her, or was she like the Strange Beasts, half-dead and half-alive? Just as he had initially guessed, were the symptoms of the Strange Beasts contagious, turning them into living corpses?
But this seemed too absurd. The Martial Emperor and the Puppet Master studied human potential and aptitude, not a plague. Moreover, this ‘Pann Xiaoying' had a relaxed demeanor, unlike the Strange Beasts that only knew how to attack and kill. It seemed more like someone was pretending to be her.
Guo Fan's mind raced. He saw the Strange Beast tide following the unlocked door, attacking Qingfu and the others. He didn't have time to think further. Holding Hee Mengyao in his arms, he balanced himself in the air using the arm with the dragon scale, took a few steps on the dragon's back, and placed the descendant of the Martial Emperor on the hammer's head.
He didn't have any skills to use at the moment, relying solely on his instincts. Even so, his body remembered some moves and techniques, because without them, he wouldn't be able to move.
A white-clothed girl followed him like a shadow, landing on the dragon's back from an unknown place. Her figure was as light and graceful as a white crane.
Huala...
The last remnants of the library were on the verge of collapse. The dragon's slender body coiled around it, its four claws searching for footing. The floor and beams beneath it were constantly collapsing.
Among the remaining people of Soul Haunt Ship, some screamed and fell with the dolls. The rest, including Dong Yuan, quickly jumped up and climbed to the next room to escape.
In such a situation, Dong Yuan didn't forget to bring Shen Wu along.
The monkey had been struck by the hammer after transforming and was on the verge of death. There was a large hole in its chest and abdomen, covered in blood. Half of its body was dyed red. Its face was pale, and it spat out blood, but its hand still tightly held the book. It opened its eyes wide and muttered, “Demon... Demon race... Dang Xing...”
He suddenly closed his mouth, and his face quickly turned ashen and purple, losing all signs of life.
Swoosh!
The gaps between the scales on the Flood Dragon's body lit up once more. Hammer raised its head and let out a long roar, the dragon's cry resonating throughout the entire Sutra Library.
The Demonic Dragon soared into the sky at an incredible speed, flying towards the platform where Qingfu and the little fox were. In just a few breaths, it had closed the distance.
Just before landing, Xinyue abruptly cut off the Spiritual Energy transmission. Hammer used the momentum and gravity to crash heavily onto the ground with a loud bang, nearly cracking the ground and shaking the Sutra Library.
This really prioritized Big Orange above all else...
Guo Fan silently cursed in his heart. He hugged Hee Mengyao, jumped up, and landed on the ground nearby. Hammer took the opportunity to roll, crushing a pile of Strange Beasts to death with its massive body.
“Big bad guy!” The little fox Si Mi's sweet voice came from the side. Guo Fan looked over and saw that they were all safe. Si Mi even energetically waved at him, instantly making him feel relieved.
The two little foxes' combat abilities were impressive, and Qingfu was also doing well. They had not suffered any losses in the brief skirmish.
Guo Fan drew his long sword. “Wait! I'm coming right now!”
He was about to rush forward, but Yijun was faster. She leapt up, her toes touching a few Strange Beasts, and in a flash, she appeared in front of Pann Xiaoying, who was in the middle. The bright sword light swirled and struck down.
“Ji Yue!”
Like the light of wind and moon, this sword was bright and clear, bold and wide, with a vast artistic conception.
Yijun's sword instantly split open half of Pann Xiaoying's face, who only had time to step back halfway. Beneath the shocked and twisted expression, a mass of black rolling fog was revealed.
“She's from the Devil Clan!”
Yijun's tone was fiercely unprecedented.
On the “cliff” several hundred feet above the library, the mechanism that had collapsed due to the destruction of the library was revealed. Dong Yuan searched the body of the monkey and found a transparent pearl.
Dong Yuan had a flash of inspiration. “This seemed to be placed on the table and was taken away by Shen Wu. But because of the Minute Purification Scripture in our hearts, we only noticed the book!”
Suddenly, his face was filled with shock. The bead shone brightly. First, a tall and burly shadow appeared, then it turned into a white light and drilled into Dong Yuan's forehead.
