Chapter 92 - The God of Slaughter's Finger

“Can you be more shameless than this?” Yunxiao sneered. “You’re a Martial Lord and I’m just a warrior, yet you ask me to not move around? I think your face is even thicker than a wall!”

Guang Yuanjia’s nostrils flared while his attacks grew fiercer and faster, but all of them were still dodged by Yunxiao.

If truth be told, Yunxiao was smiling wryly in his mind. He was drenched in cold sweat, and he had already exercised the Nether Swap to its maximum level. If the stalemate continued, his defeat was inevitable. The freezing ice energy of a Martial Lord was not something he could resist, and he would be dead if he were hit.

Han Bai and others watched from a distance as their hearts pounded faster and faster. They were utterly terrified by Yunxiao’s risky performance.

In a fit of rage, Chen Zhen bellowed, “Let’s charge over together and save Young Master Yun! Don’t forget who taught you martial techniques, who shared the loots with you, and who brought up the rear at the most critical moment! If you are still men, follow me! Girls can stay here!”

With a look of grief and indignation, Lin Yu raised his spear and roared, “Let’s go! Those who stay back are cowards, and you better not come back to the academy again! Because if I don’t die today, I’ll beat you every time I see you until you are dead!”

Holding the spear with both hands and pointing its tip ahead, he took the lead and charged out. The rest of the students were all boiling with his words, and in that instant, the murderous hearts they had found in the illusion came back to them. Their eyes burned with rage and shot with blood, and a cloud of dark purple murderous air soon gathered over them, which looked clearer than when they were rushing out of the encirclement just now.

“Kill them! Let’s go!”

“Kill these bast*rds! Kill anyone who gets in our way!”

“I’ll fight you to death and kill at least ten thousand men today!”

All two thousand students turned and rushed back with a look of determination on their faces.

The four hundred thousand soldiers shivered as they watched the students charge at them. The suffocating murderous air was even more frightening than the demon beasts they saw in Whitehead Town and Great Python Mountain. Reflexively, everyone began to move backward.

Cang Liqun was panicked as well. Ji Meng had been fighting desperately, almost at the cost of his own life. Although his attacks seemed swift and agile, they were extremely aggressive and crazy. In other words, if he did not defend every attack, the fight between them would immediately end up in an internecine outcome. For someone who had become a Martial Lord and was enjoying such a high status, Cang Liqun naturally would never risk his life, so he was in a rather passive position.

And now, when he saw the two thousand student troops charge back and sensed their towering air of determination, his heart raced even faster.

He who was braver would win when men came into unavoidable confrontation. As soon as Cang Liqun felt discouraged, he began to show signs of losing.

“What are you waiting for, Senior Brother Yu? Quickly help Senior Brother Guang kill that bast*rd!”

A bad feeling was growing inside Li Yi. He did not feel good about that bizarre finger, and there was something else that filled his heart with frustration and uneasiness: over at the horizon in the distance, he saw clouds of dust rising into the air, as if a great army was approaching!

Yu Yuanwen, too, had a vague sense of crisis, and he decided to put his honor aside. The halberd in his hand burst with a light, and then he rushed straight at Yunxiao while leaving streams of cold air behind as he pointed the tip at the latter’s head.

Jia Rong was healing Bai Chengfeng somewhere far away from the battlefield. As his divine sense was stronger than that of average people, he was able to discover that Chen Dasheng’s army was approaching, and that made him roar crazily, “Everybody charge! Reinforcements are coming! The army of four hundred thousand is coming! Kill these bast*rds!”

That immediately gave the student army a tremendous encouragement, and each one of them roared while rushing at Yu Yuanwen. Meanwhile, the soldiers of the Golden Lion Army had long retreated behind him, and no one dared to come forward again. He was about to kill Yunxiao when he suddenly felt an extremely uncomfortable power envelop the sky over him.

He looked up in horror and saw that at some point, the dark purple finger over the student army had erected and was pointing down at him.

“Fu*k! What’s this thing!”

He was greatly horrified, and a monstrous wave rose within him. In that instant, a very strong sense of death washed him over. He gave up on killing Yunxiao and pulled back his halberd, putting all his strength behind it and thrusting it out again at the finger.

As soon as his halberd hit the target, it was forcibly pressed down, and then he felt an unimaginably terrifying power break through all his defenses and smash right at him.

Bam!

Under the terrified gazes of everyone, Yu Yuanwen exploded into chunks of flesh the moment the finger touched him, scattering all over the place.

Every man in the army of four hundred thousand soldiers sucked in a cold breath at the same time, and they all stepped back in horror. Even the two thousand student troops were completely dumbstruck. The finger vanished after it had killed Yu Yuanwen, and every student instantly felt empty inside, as if all their spirit and energy were drained. Moreover, not only had their bloodshot eyes returned to normal, but their strength was gone as well.

“Get away from here now! I don’t need your help!”

Yunxiao cried out in panic as soon as he was safe. He knew the student troops’ state at the moment: the God of Slaughter’s finger had drained all their murderous air and Primordial Qi, which was the reason why it could kill a Martial Lord so effortlessly. If the Golden Lion Army launched an attack right now, the student army would be completely wiped out.

Fortunately, the four hundred thousand soldiers were already frightened by the slaughter just now, and their faces were even paler after witnessing how that strange thing had killed a Martial Lord, which deprived their courage to charge at the student army again.

Li Yi could totally not believe what he just saw. Why did his senior brother, a Martial Lord, die in such an absurd manner?

He rubbed his eyes and went wild. Like a madman, he drew a sword and rushed over while bellowing, “Bast*rd! Fuc*ing bast*rd! I’m going to kill you!”

Both armies stared blankly at the fight between the few men. Li Yi was a Great Martial Master. Although he had lost an arm, he still had his strength. And now, as he had become mad completely and lost his mind, he was even stronger, which made his attack unavoidable for Yunxiao.

“STOP IT! EVERYONE!”

A loud roar suddenly came from the distance, stabbing into every ear and echoing through the field. Everyone was shocked as a result.

“What?” Li Yi woke from his madness by the voice and blurted out in horror, “Xiao Qingwang! Sh*t! Senior Brother, quickly kill this guy!”

His heart was filled with resentment. Yunxiao was like his natural nemesis; whenever they confronted, it was always him being utterly tortured. It was the same this time. Even though the situation favored him, he still lost a senior brother. He decided that he must kill Yunxiao right now and here; otherwise, he would always be suppressed mentally, which would stop him from making further advancement in his martial arts.

“Let’s see how you are going to escape this time!”

In the face of the joint attack of the two enemies, Yunxiao finally could not hold on and began to be hit by streams of ice-cold air. Although he had avoided all the vital spots, his situation was getting worse.

Meanwhile, a few figures could be seen running over from the distance. Judging from their speed, they were all experts.

“No one can save you this time!”

Li Yi kicked Yunxiao hard, sending him up into the air. Beneath him, both men smiled hideously as two spikes of ice cold energy pierced out of the ground, shooting upward.

Covered in bruises, Yunxiao suddenly drew a deep breath and threw out his arms and legs. Energy spread out of his palms and soles to form something that looked like a water film, which held his body firmly in midair.

As he did not fall, the ice spikes failed to pierce him. Seeing that, Li Yi and Guang Yuanjia’s pupils constricted in horror.

The three figures running over from the distance were Xiao Qingwang, Luo Yunshang, and Chen Dasheng. Although they did not know what happened, they all saw the fight just now, especially the God of Slaughter’s finger. They were utterly shocked when they watched how it had killed Yu Yuanwen. Now, when they saw Yunxiao facing a crisis of death, their heart burned with panic, and they ran as fast as they could.

Chen Dasheng’s face was gloomy as he bellowed, “Bast*rds! I’ll kill you all if Yunxiao is hurt!”

Yunxiao was his brother’s only grandson, who had also saved his life. How was he going to answer to his brother if Yunxiao was killed? If that happened, he might have to kill himself here to atone his sin. Luo Yunshang, on the other hand, felt a strange fear and unbearable pain in her heart as if someone dear to her was about to leave her. Xiao Qingwang’s face was the calmest, but his eyes were filled with a monstrous killing intent that could not be concealed.

Yunxiao floated quietly in the air. But, because of the excessive loss of strength, he still slowly fell downward. Looking up at the reinforcements coming from afar, he said to himself bitterly, “It’s too late.”

Bam!

The air bubble that helped him float exploded. He pulled back his arms and legs, and he suddenly had about a dozen colorful needles in his hands. With a fierce look on his face, he inserted the needles into the acupoints all over his body.

“What is he doing?”

Everyone was struck dumb. Even Ji Meng and Cang Liqun stopped fighting each other. They exchanged a wary look, and then focused all their attention on Yunxiao.

With the needles inserted into his body, Yunxiao began to emanate a shocking aura, which climbed steadily. Although the air bubble had burst, he still hovered in midair, slowly descending as if he was being drawn by some kind of power.

“Fu*k you! Why can’t you be killed?!” Li Yi screamed. He felt like he was going crazy as a gleam of resolution flashed in his eyes. From his pocket, he took out a golden medicinal pill, before putting it into his mouth and swallowing it.

Guang Yuanjia was shocked, and he cried out involuntarily, “You can’t do that, Junior Brother!”

Li Yi’s face twisted, and he began to pant violently. All of a sudden, his muscles swelled and bulged, and he looked in great pain. In a hoarse voice, he said, “I’ll not stop if I don’t kill him today!”

“Roar!”

With a roar, his body suddenly grew several feet taller, and black hair began to appear all over his skin. In the blink of an eye, he had completely transformed into a huge mountain ape!

“Wha-what… what is going on?”

Everyone was startled. Was Li Yi actually an ape? But, that was just too absurd!
