“Jie jie jie…”
“Little girl, you really are young and full of vigour. It seems you have never suffered a loss before.”
After blocking Yu Sha’s attack, the Blood Clan World Spirit actually stuck out its tongue and licked its lips. The sight was utterly disgusting.
“Seeking death.”
This action, when seen by Yu Sha, became an unforgivable offence.
She released the black-flame long swords in her hands and retreated backwards. At the same time, black flames surged from her body once more, though these flames were noticeably different from before.
The black flames intertwined and condensed into the form of a black warhorse.
The warhorse looked vivid and lifelike, almost indistinguishable from a real one.
Yu Sha mounted the black warhorse. With a single hand raised, a black-flame spear appeared in her grasp.
The surging black flames also transformed into black armour that attached itself to her body.
At this moment, Yu Sha looked exceptionally formidable.
Roar roar roar.
The warhorse let out an angry neigh. Yu Sha rode it forward and charged at the Blood Clan World Spirit once again.
The two clashed anew. This time, the Blood Clan World Spirit had lost its previous arrogance. It gripped two massive iron hammers tightly in both hands and fought Yu Sha with full seriousness.
Yet very soon, the crowd was stunned to discover something.
The Blood Clan World Spirit, which had previously blocked Yu Sha’s attacks bare-handed, now fell into a disadvantage during this exchange.
The reason was simple. After Yu Sha summoned the black warhorse, her combat power had increased dramatically.
“This doesn’t look good.”
“That brat’s World Spirit is truly impressive. It is no ordinary being.”
Seeing Yu Sha’s performance, many World Spiritists present showed looks of envy, especially the male ones.
By now, regardless of the outcome, none of them could deny Yu Sha’s overwhelming strength.
Only Chu Feng knew the truth. If her power had not been sealed, summoning this black warhorse could have directly raised Yu Sha’s cultivation by one entire rank.
The warhorse she had summoned now was not displaying its full true power.
Even so, being able to assist Yu Sha at this critical moment was already extremely helpful.
“Girl, this old man really likes you too much. I truly do not want to hurt you.”
“Why not consider becoming this old man’s concubine? I guarantee you will live a life of luxury and indulgence.”
“Not just here in the martial world, but even if we return to the Asura Spirit World, I promise no one will dare to bully you.”
Although the Blood Clan World Spirit had fallen into a disadvantage, it showed no panic at all. Instead, it continued to tease her with words.
Whoosh.
Yet the moment those words fell, Yu Sha raised her spear and thrust it straight towards its mouth.
Although Yu Sha did not reply verbally, this strike was her best possible response.
But this very strike also led to another shocking scene that stunned everyone once more.
Facing Yu Sha’s attack, the World Spirit neither dodged nor evaded.
Instead, it opened its massive mouth wide and actually bit down hard on Yu Sha’s black-flame spear with its teeth.
Then, an even more astonishing thing happened.
The World Spirit clenched its jaws with sudden force. With a crisp crack, it actually snapped Yu Sha’s powerful black-flame spear in two using nothing but its teeth.
It turned out this World Spirit had been hiding its true strength all along. Its real power still surpassed Yu Sha’s.
“Yu Sha, come back quickly.”
Seeing the situation turn dire, Chu Feng immediately shouted loudly. At this point, Chu Feng could already tell that this Blood Clan World Spirit’s strength was superior to Yu Sha’s. She was simply no match for it.
“Hmph.”
Yet Yu Sha merely let out a cold snort. Black flames surged once more, instantly restoring the broken black-flame spear. She then launched another attack.
This time, Yu Sha’s power had risen again.
But Chu Feng soon noticed something unusual. Not only were black flames surging around Yu Sha’s body, but within those flames were also traces of other gases.
Those gases appeared to be produced by the burning of something.
“Yu Sha, stop it. Stop right now.”
Chu Feng sensed the danger. He realised that Yu Sha must be using some method that harmed herself in order to gain more power and force the fight to continue.
No matter how urgently Chu Feng tried to persuade her, Yu Sha showed no intention of stopping.
“Girl, this old man’s patience is almost at its limit.”
“Since you refuse to appreciate kindness, do not blame this old man for being ruthless.”
After saying this, the Blood Clan World Spirit raised its hand and struck out with a palm.
The palm strike unleashed howling winds and shattered space. A powerful invisible hurricane rushed straight towards Yu Sha.
Although the palm did not hit Yu Sha directly, the sheer force of the strike from a distance was enough to send her flying backwards several metres.
When Yu Sha steadied herself, fresh blood slowly trickled from the corner of her mouth.
Even her face had turned exceptionally pale.
With just one strike, it was clear that Yu Sha had suffered considerable injury.
“You can never defeat this old man.”
“This old man’s strength is not as weak as you imagine.”
Boom.
After those words, the flames within the Blood Clan World Spirit’s body exploded outwards like a hurricane.
At the same time, its aura rose dramatically.
That oppressive pressure covered the heavens and the earth, far surpassing Yu Sha’s.
It turned out this Blood Clan World Spirit was not a First Rank Martial Venerable at all, but a Second Rank Martial Venerable.
It had deliberately hidden its strength earlier when fighting Yu Sha.
No wonder Yu Sha could never truly suppress it, no matter how much she increased her power.
The gap in their true strength was simply too vast.
“This old man will give you one last chance.”
“Either become this old man’s concubine, or both of you can die here.”
The Blood Clan World Spirit said to Yu Sha.
“Indeed someone will die, but it will be you.”
After saying this, Yu Sha immediately stood up, clearly intending to continue the fight.
Buzz.
But at that moment, the World Spirit gate suddenly appeared behind Yu Sha.
It was Chu Feng. After closing the gate, he had reopened it and positioned it right behind her.
“Yu Sha, stop it. This duel ends here.”
Not only had Chu Feng opened the gate, but he had also run over. More than that, he actively grabbed Yu Sha, trying to forcibly drag her back into the World Spirit gate.
But because of the huge gap in their strength, Chu Feng could not move her in the slightest.
Whoosh.
With a sweep of her sleeve, Yu Sha flung Chu Feng behind her.
“I must win this duel.”
Yu Sha glanced at Chu Feng. Within her beautiful eyes burned a resolute determination.
Boom.
Suddenly, black flames surged from within Yu Sha’s body once more, erupting skyward like a volcanic explosion.
Along with the black flames came that aura of burning power, growing even more intense.
At this moment, Yu Sha’s flames continued to rise without stop.
She… was truly risking her life!!!
“Burning your bloodline?”
“You are actually willing to throw away your life for such a fellow?”
“It seems the bond between you two is not simple at all.”
“Since that is the case, then both you and your master can die for this old man.”
With those words, the Blood Clan World Spirit opened its massive mouth wide. A torrent of black flames shot out from within, moving at incredible speed and carrying the pressure of a Second Rank Martial Venerable.
The black flames surged straight towards Chu Feng and Yu Sha.
Neither Chu Feng nor Yu Sha had time to react.
Before they even realised what was happening, the black flames had already reached them.
If this strike landed, both of them would die.
Boom.
But at the critical moment, the black flames suddenly exploded right in front of them. Because the power was so immense, the shockwaves from the explosion were ferocious, like raging flame beasts ready to devour everything in all directions.
Yet even those explosive shockwaves were blocked by an invisible barrier. Despite surging outwards with unstoppable momentum in other directions, they could not get anywhere near Chu Feng and Yu Sha.
It turned out an invisible barrier had stopped the flame shockwaves completely.
“Is it Lord Black Fiend?”
At this moment, everyone looked towards the Black Fiend Old Devil, assuming he had acted to save Yu Sha and Chu Feng.
“Do not look at this old man. This was not my doing.”
But the Black Fiend Old Devil shook his head.
“Not Lord Black Fiend?”
When the Black Fiend Old Devil said this, not only the others but even Chu Feng and Yu Sha looked bewildered. Both of them knew they had not blocked that attack themselves.
If it was not them, and not the Black Fiend Old Devil,
then who among those present could have saved them?
While everyone remained puzzled, an extremely pleasant voice suddenly came from the World Spirit gate behind Chu Feng and Yu Sha.
“This little girl, your name is Yu Sha, right?”
“You have worked hard.”
“But from now on, this fellow Chu Feng will be protected by this Queen.”
As those words rang out, an absolutely stunning and graceful figure also stepped out from within the World Spirit gate.
