“Ah, Ah—!”
Roar! Roar!
Hundred Blossom Lady shrieked bleakly while the Yazi Beast’s explosive roar resonated over constantly. However, those roars sounded extremely energetic. It was as though Jiang Yi’s return caused it to feel extremely confident.
Xiao Longwang and Principal Yu looked at each other. They could see traces of grave and frenetic expression from each other’s eyes. With just the first exchange of moves, the Old Marshal had died while Hundred Blossom Lady was crippled. Would the two of them still be able to kill Jiang Yi?
“Kill!”
The war had already reached this point. It was impossible for them to retreat.
Xiao Longwang was confident that the fire from Jiang Yi would never be able to kill him. Since he had already become a martial expert for countless years, he was pretty confident in his own strength. With a turn of his eye, he signaled Principal Yu, hinting him to coordinate with his attack. He turned his body into several afterimages as he charged toward Jiang Yi’s figure which just reappeared in the eastern sky.
Jiang Yi was able to instant-shift, but executing it needed time. Since Xiao Longwang speed was a lot faster than him, he was confident that he would be able to catch up to Jiang Yi. If he were to go all-out, he should be able to put Jiang Yi to death even though it wouldn’t be easy. Besides, there was also Principal Yu supporting him from the back.
Swish!
Principal Yu’s figure flashed, turning himself into a powerful horn as he shot towards Jiang Yi together with Xiao Longwang. He brandished his fan from a distance away while layers of attack shot out. They were all turned into thousands of sea waves which surged towards Jiang Yi surroundings in an unending stream. He didn’t aim to attack Jiang Yi but to influence his judgments. The person who would focus on attacking Jiang Yi was still Xiao Longwang.
Xiao Longwang didn’t make his move and had only used his aura intent to lock onto Jiang Yi. He expanded his divine senses so that once Jiang Yi executed his instant shift, he would be able to determine Jiang Yi’s destination according to the void fluctuations. From there, he could launch an attack with his fastest speed.
Jiang Yi didn’t escape but gradually descended slowly. His gaze fixed onto Xiao Longwang and Principal Yu who were like violent dragons as he silently calculated the distance between them.
Three thousand meters, 2000 meters, 1000 meters… 800 meters!
Xiao Longwang could no longer hold himself back. Jiang Yi was just right in front of him. How could he not attack? He wished to wait for Jiang Yi to execute the instant shift so that he could determine the location Jiang Yi would appear and bestow him a fatal attack, but Jiang Yi didn’t do as he had expected. Thus, he could only initiate the attack himself.
“Die—!”
He yelled heavily. The halberd in his hand turned into countless mirages, causing the void to fluctuate as they cleaved towards Jiang Yi abruptly. The golden light on the halberd flickered with a terrifying aura presence. Clearly, it contained the metal attribute dao pattern attacks. Metal attribute represented unbreakable strength. It was the strongest element among all the other dao pattern elements.
Buzz!
Just when the halberd was around 100 meters away from Jiang Yi, a white ray shone upon Jiang Yi’s body as he disappeared from his position. Meanwhile, Xiao Longwang revealed a sinister smile as he withdrew his halberd while his divine senses extended out in lightning speed.
“You finally couldn’t hold yourself back and have to use the instant shift, huh?”
That attack from Xiao Longwang was actually just bait. Of course, if Jiang Yi didn’t escape, that bait would be turned into a real attack. He had concluded that Jiang Yi would definitely instant-shift. Therefore, he kept on brainstorming how was he going to inflict Jiang Yi with a fatal injury after Jiang Yi instant-shifted away.
Executing the instant shift needed time. To ordinary people, the instant shift might be too fast; and it was impossible for them to locked onto the executor. However, how strong was Xiao Longwang again? His divine senses had already reached a formidable level. As long as he could determine the fluctuation happening in the air, he would be able to release an attack; and his attack speed was just too quick. Once Jiang Yi reappeared after his instant shift, Xiao Longwang’s attack would already reach Jiang Yi.
Tsk! Tsk!
Principal Yu knew Xiao Longwang’s plan long ago. At this very moment, the essence force on his fan radiated out as he used his divine senses to examine the whole area. Once he confirmed Jiang Yi’s instant-shift position, he would coordinate with Xiao Longwang’s attack immediately.
“Eh?”
However, what caused Xiao Longwang and Principal Yu to be flabbergasted was that there were no signs of fluctuation in the nearby vicinity. Could Jiang Yi have instant-shifted himself to thousands of miles away? Was it because his position had exceeded the area where their divine senses could reach?
“No, this is not right—!”
Xiao Longwang suddenly realized something. His gaze suddenly went back to the location Jiang Yi had disappeared at. Sure enough! A figure started to reappear at that location. Jiang Yi had actually instant-shifted himself back to the original spot.
Tsk! Tsk!
The moment Jiang Yi appeared, his hand lit up in dark green radiance and struck out dozens of palm strikes abruptly. Masses of flame turned into an immense flaming sea as it engulfed towards Xiao Longwang and Principal Yu.
“We have been tricked!”
Xiao Longwang was only 100 meters away from Jiang Yi while Principal Yu was also at a similar range. Never had they imagined that after Jiang Yi instant-shifted, he would reappear back in his original spot!
However, this couldn’t be blamed on them as well. Anyone who could instant-shift would keep on flickering in the air. Who would reappear in their original spot after instant-shifting? If so, what would there still be any difference even if he had not instant-shifted? Furthermore, Xiao Longwang had launched the previous attack at Jiang Yi’s original location. If Xiao Longwang didn’t withdraw the attack, the reappearing Jiang Yi would have been shattered into pieces instantly.
Victory by surprise!
The more one didn’t expect it, the more effective it was. Jiang Yi had gambled. He betted that the previous attack from Xiao Longwang was just bait. Therefore, it allowed him to fluster his opponents and cause huge confusion.
Regardless of the confusion…!
Xiao Longwang still possessed a terrifying amount of strength, and it just so happened that Principal Yu’s water attribute dao pattern was the nemesis of Jiang Yi’s Nine Heaven Dragon Flames. Therefore, even if both of them were facing an uncertain crisis, they still reacted very quickly.
Xiao Longwang retreated rapidly while he took out a black banner from the ancient divine essence ring. That black banner was clearly a saint artifact. The moment it appeared, it gave rise to a downwind and grew hundreds of meters long as it engulfed towards the sea of flame like a black cloud.
“Sea Waves Overflowing the Heavens!”
Principal Yu was behind Xiao Longwang, and there were hundreds of meters between them. This distance was not fatal to him; therefore, while he was retreating, he struck out a towering wave very similar to what he executed earlier. Of course, the wave was a lot bigger than just now.
Buzz!
The sea of flames collided into the black banner causing the black banner to release countless black lights. That terrifying Nine Heavens’ Dragon Flames was actually unable to burn off the black banner. That majestic and violent sea of flame was actually obstructed by the black banner.
Pong! Pong! Pong!
Another towering wave had also collided onto the sea of flames in another direction as it started to extinguish the sea of flames gradually. That terrifying flame Jiang Yi had struck out was slowly being warded off.
“Hmph, Hmph!”
Principal Yu grew resolute. The most terrifying attack from Jiang Yi was that flame. At this very moment, it could be stopped by his water attribute dao pattern as well as the black banner. Would that mean that the two of them was already invincible in front of Jiang Yi? If so, they only need to be careful of not getting sneaked attack by him.
“Old Yu, be careful!”
Xiao Longwang did not have any intention to relax as his divine senses swept out before he yelled out. Jiang Yi had already disappeared from his position, and at the next moment, he appeared near Principal Yu. He struck out several strikes abruptly as a sea of flames engulfed over.
“Hmph!”
Principal Yu was startled, but he didn’t panic. He immediately struck out with his water attribute dao attack to defend against it. At the same time, his divine senses extended out as he searched for the next location Jiang Yi would appear.
Tsk! Tsk!
The next time Jiang Yi appeared was above Xiao Longwang. After he struck out a few strikes, he immediately instant-shifted away. Besides, the flames had already started to whiz its way over. He had no choice but to control the black banner to defend against the flames.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Jiang Yi continued to instant-shift. Every time, he would appear nearby the two of them. After sending a few strikes at them, he would immediately instant-shift away. This caused Xiao Longwang and Principal Yu to be unable to pursue and attack him. They could only wearily deal with the sea of flames whizzing their way towards them.
“Old Yu, be patient. Let’s see how much longer he can continue with this attack. As long as we remain calm and not get a sneak attack from him, he will certainly die!”
Xiao Longwang revealed traces of sinister smile and did not attack out recklessly as he wandered around the air. His black banner withstood against the Nine Heavens’ Dragon Flames while his divine senses constantly located Jiang Yi. As long as Jiang Yi revealed a small bit of mistake, he would set out to slaughter Jiang Yi immediately.
“It’s about time, right? I should kill the Azure Dragon College’s Principal first!”
After Jiang Yi had reappeared from his instant shift, his bloodshot gaze swept past Principal Yu before he disappeared from the air with a faint smile.
