Jiang Xuan had no clue why this sky blue snake was here.
But he simply didn’t have the time to ponder over this issue. At the moment, the most important thing was obviously figuring out how to hightail it out of there.
Or if Xin Wan could really destroy this sky blue snake, then he wouldn’t have to run. Instead, he could have a feast to replenish his strength, for the sky blue snake looked much more nourishing than a wyvern.
“Xin Wan, how confident are you?”
“Of course, ten out of ten! Brother Xuan, please stay away and don’t get caught in the fight. Don’t worry, this battle will be over soon.”
As the words fell on his ears, Jiang Xuan immediately ran far far away like the smart guy he is.
On the other side, the sky blue snake in its berserk state kept a little bit of its sanity.
Its gaze flickered with a hint of caution when it looked at Jiang Xuan in the distance.
To it, that human must be hiding something; its cultivation level was completely impenetrable.
As the sky blue snake’s gaze returned, looking down at Nangong Xin Wan, it showed a look of disdain.
A half-step Martial Ancestor, such a weak human was nothing; it could gobble her up in one bite!
Just at this moment, Nangong Xin Wan made the first move.
In a blink, her figure instantly appeared in the air. A moment later, the silver lance flew up and flipped the gigantic body of the sky blue snake.
Enraged, the sky blue snake lunged at Nangong Xin Wan to bite, but she dodged it skillfully.
Then she threw the lance directly toward the snake’s neck.
Wherever the lance passed, space crumbled, and behind the lance, a fiery phoenix’s silhouette emerged.
In an instant, the silhouette merged with the lance, increasing its power even more.
From afar, observing the fight, Jiang Xuan felt as though that one lance could pierce the stars.
Just as Jiang Xuan thought that he had misjudged Xin Wan’s strength and the outcome was decided, the massive sky blue snake wiggled its tail slightly, sending the lance flying away just inches from its face.
“Not bad, I underestimated you. Human, you are far stronger than what I encountered in the auction house. You actually made my tail hurt a little!”
Too bad, you haven’t reached the Martial Ancestor realm. Otherwise, you would have made me use at least two-tenths of my strength.”
Jiang Xuan: “??????”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xuan felt the world crumbling. This sky blue snake’s combat power seemed to exceed his expectations.
Seems like he couldn’t rely on Xin Wan now.
But he only had Earth Martial cultivation, and six realms separated him from the Martial Master. He was absolutely helpless!
As Jiang Xuan struggled to come up with a plan, the mid-air battle continued.
Reclaiming her lance, Nangong Xin Wan frowned deeply. She now realized that this sky blue snake was not someone she could easily defeat.
That last attack had drained most of her Spiritual Power; she thought she could wrap up this fight quickly.
Who knew that it would be blocked.
As Xin Wan was a bit lost, the sky blue snake used its huge body to continually block Nangong Xin Wan’s movements.
Helpless, Xin Wan was forced to break through from above and rapidly ascend.
Just as she thought she finally escaped the blockade, a massive snake tail struck her face-on.
Reacting quickly, Xin Wan swung her lance, forcefully resisting that huge tail.
In the next moment, she was slammed hard onto the ground, creating a deep crater.
After sensing that Nangong Xin Wan was no longer around, the sky blue snake turned its attention to the distant Jiang Xuan.
“It’s your turn now. Let’s see how strong you are.”
Jiang Xuan: “……”
On the other side, dressed in black, Jiang Xuan slowly placed his hand on the handle of his black saber, pondered:
“Sigh, Xin Wan sure can’t be trusted. But, with Mo Han by her side, she should be fine, right?
This traitor still hasn’t shown up. It’s too much!
There’s no way out now; I have to force a fight with a Martial Master with just Earth Martial cultivation.”
Just as Jiang Xuan was about to swing the saber in despair, from that bottomless pit, a powerful aura swept in.
This took the sky blue snake off guard as it turned again towards the rear of the pit.
Inside Nangong Xin Wan’s sea of consciousness:
“Little girl, you’ve done well. If you were at the same cultivation level as that monster beast, that lance attack would have won.”
“Mistress, I… I am so much weaker than my sister. Even though I’ve tried so hard to become stronger, I still can’t protect him…”
“No worries, good disciple. Just sleep for now. Let this teacher protect you, and leave the rest to me.”
When Nangong Xin Wan reappeared, her aura had changed drastically.
She emerged from the giant pit, walking slowly towards the sky blue snake.
“Was it you, little bug, who bullied my disciple?”
“This Saint will give you one move. If you can withstand it, I’ll let you go.”
When the sky blue snake saw Nangong Xin Wan approaching, it instantly prepared for battle.
It concentrated all its spiritual energy in its tail, lunging at “Nangong Xin Wan.”
However, “Nangong Xin Wan” made no attempt to dodge.
In the next moment, she threw the lance, instantly transforming it into tens of thousands.
Each lance pierced through the sky blue snake’s defense.
With just one move, the mighty sky blue snake collapsed into an enormous pile of mud, lifeless.
Jiang Xuan watched, stunned speechless.
When Jiang Xuan came back to his senses, “Nangong Xin Wan” was already standing before him.
“Oh teacher, that little bug is finished. We should sort things out now.”
“You promised me being your protector, yet you just abandoned me. What a cruel heart you have!”
Jiang Xuan: “!!!!!!”
