The crowd watching below, on the divine temple’s side, Yun Xiu clenched her fists tightly, her eyes full of worry, but more than that, it was trust in Ling Xi. She kept muttering under her breath: “Fourth hall master, you must win!”
The divine guards behind her were also tense, their gazes closely following the battle in the sky.
The third hall master had a gloomy expression. He had not expected the witch prince to be at a disadvantage from the start.
The third hall disciples beside him whispered to each other, their faces showing worry. Someone said softly: “Is this witch prince up to it? Do not let him drag us down.”
The third hall master glared at that person, who quickly shut his mouth in fright.
The great elder of the evil path hall stood to one side, his brows slightly furrowed. He had not expected the fourth hall master Ling Xi to be so strong. He was somewhat dissatisfied with the witch prince’s performance, but he did not speak, just watched quietly.
The witch prince, seeing his strike miss and instead being counterattacked by Ling Xi, felt some anxiety in his heart.
He launched another attack. His feet kicked fiercely in the air, shooting towards Ling Xi like a cannonball. At the same time, his hands quickly formed seals, and he chanted incantations under his breath. Strands of black demonic energy surged from his body, transforming into ferocious demonic dragons that pounced towards Ling Xi.
Ling Xi’s expression remained unchanged. Her long sword danced rapidly in her hand, weaving sword qi into a huge sword net that shattered those demonic dragons one after another.
After the demonic dragons shattered, they turned into black smoke, but soon they reformed and charged at Ling Xi again.
“Hmph, is that all you have?”
Ling Xi said coldly. Her figure flickered, and she instantly appeared behind the witch prince. Her long sword thrust straight at his back.
The witch prince felt a chill on his back and hurriedly lunged forward, barely dodging the sword. But his back was still grazed by the sword qi, leaving a bloody mark.
“Damn it!”
The witch prince roared in anger. He felt that in front of Ling Xi, he was passive everywhere, completely suppressed by the opponent.
He was extremely anxious in his heart. If he could not turn the situation around quickly, he would likely fall here today.
He took a deep breath, forcibly steadying his mind. Then, he pulled a black pill from his bosom and swallowed it without hesitation.
The pill melted in his mouth, and a powerful force erupted in his body. His body instantly swelled by a circle, his muscles bulging high, and his eyes turned blood red, emanating a mad aura.
“Fourth hall master, die!”
The witch prince shouted loudly and charged at Ling Xi again. His speed was more than twice as fast as before, and the power in his fists had increased greatly.
Ling Xi saw the change in the witch prince and felt a slight chill in her heart, but she did not retreat.
Her long sword trembled in her hand, and beams of brilliant sword light bloomed from the blade, like a blooming lotus flower.
She rushed towards the witch prince. Sword and fist collided again, producing a deafening roar.
This time, although the witch prince’s power had increased considerably, Ling Xi, relying on her exquisite swordsmanship and agile movements, still held the upper hand.
Her sword was like a nimble snake, constantly leaving wounds on the witch prince’s body.
More and more wounds appeared on the witch prince’s body, blood flowing nonstop and staining his clothes red.
“Impossible! How could I not beat her!”
The witch prince screamed madly in his heart. His eyes were full of unwillingness and rage.
He launched another frenzied attack, but Ling Xi resolved them all one by one.
Below, the third hall master saw this scene, and his face became extremely ugly. He knew that if the witch prince lost, his collusion with the evil path hall would be exposed, and he would face severe punishment from the divine temple.
He clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging into his palms, yet he was unaware of it.
Meanwhile, the people on the divine temple’s side cheered one after another. Seeing the fourth hall master so heroic filled their hearts with pride and joy.
