Double Moon - Chapter 73
The fight intensified with the howls of wolves and the roar of men. The whole place was overheated. Many hunters held their grounds, but the wolves were stronger and persistent.
The wolves used their long blood-red claws beautifully, and their attacks were fast and unimaginably strong. The hunters held their ground. Although, they were suppressed.
Ziyi Xin disappeared and appeared in front of Zejia Chen. Her movement was as flexible as a fluid. Both palms moved with lightning speed, about to jab the chest of Zeija Chen. However, he somersaulted backward far from her.
“Hunters, channel your powers,” Zejia Chen commanded. Instantly, the eyes of the hunters glittered with silver light. On their glabellas, there were S letter and A letter which signified, they were S-rank and A-rank. The fight became intense. Needless to say, the hunters were seriously transformed. They started to match the pace of the wolves.
Zejia Chen also transformed. His eyes glittered with silver light, and a golden scepter on his glabella was glistening. He stretched forth his hand, and a gray spear appeared. The spear smelled like death. He appeared in a wave of time in front of Ziyi Xin and began to fight her seriously. His marksmanship was superb. It was as though the skill of spear was learned one thousand years ago.
Ziyi Xin became more aggressive as she began to exude an ice aura. However, it was a bit unusual. Somehow she became more flexible. She slashed her claws toward Zejia Chen. Nonetheless, the nails moved like a snake. The movement was a slithering motion.
Zejia Chen rotated the spear in his hand. The speed became like a helicopter’s fan. In other words, it was absolutely fast. However, those claws were fake. The actual killing attack was coming behind. Zejia Chen reacted by sacrificing the dagger on his left hand to block the attack, but it was a bit late. The claw maimed his left arm. There was an agonizing groan.
Zejia Chen took a step back. The arm that fell on the ground instantly froze and broke. ‘This is the wolf’s bloodline art,’ he thought with pain.
He held his spear and gazed at Ziyi Xin, who looked at him coldly and indifferently. It was as though she had seen all she wanted. Therefore the man in front of her did not worth her time.
She moved with a slight staggering motion. She increased her pace towards Zejia Chen. Nevertheless, he closed his eyes, feeling his environment. ‘She must have taken hunters to be primitive people that are not worth her time.’ He thought as he concentrated on feeling his surroundings. Instantly, his golden scepter glittered rapidly. His eyes were still closed. Regardless, a golden hand had been attached to his ripped-off hand. That hand was holding a golden spear. If the gray spear smelled like dead, this one smelled holy and untainted.
Zejia Chen breathed in and out. The compressed air was visible as they came out from his nose and entered back. He was surrounded by golden light. He instantly hurled his gray spear, and it changed to a gray snake. The movement was extraordinary, and it came to Ziyi Xin in a moment. As they collided, Ziyi Xin was pushed back violently. The spear moved again with another threatening speed towards Ziyi Xin. At this moment, she was already groveling on the ground.
She roared with anger and fear. Her eyes glittered with blood-red color, and the place became cold and snowy. Her blood-red claws were exuding cold air. She smashed the snake as she froze everything within her path. However, just as she was on a stalemate with the gray spear. The golden spear came like a destructive lion as it merged and blended with the gray spear. The speed and momentum were instantly unparalleled. Her claws and arms shattered immediately. She was violently rebounded as she slammed on a big tree. She vomited blood, her eyes were full of unbelievable light, and her expression was the same. At this point, she had already transformed back to a human form. The remaining alpha general who saw this rushed toward her.
“Go!” She commanded.
“Yes!” they chorused.
One of the wolves who had transformed into his human form picked Ziyi Xin, and others escorted with full speed as they moved out of the range of the forest.
Just as Zejia Chen was about to give a chase, his head felt empty, and he fell to the ground. So the hunters who wanted to chase them came back and took him back to the community.
In a slightly dark room, Zejia Chen was inside a mysterious liquid. It was like a pond and there were tiny channels like networks of veins and arteries. In addition, many fireflies hovered around the place, brightening the place up. A man stared closely at Zejia Chen. Also, there were some ancient leaves inside the liquid. Another man came inside the room. The man was Zejia Yu.
His expression was heavy. It was still because of his younger that he went to war with the wolves about forty-eight years ago. ‘Do this bastard intend to take him away from me that much, tch!’ The eyes of Zejia Yu exuded a frightening killing intent. He balled his hands and left because of his inability to look at his suffering younger brother. Whatever he was thinking was a mystery.
After three hours, a youth came rushing.
“Bad!” he shouted at the top of his voice. He abruptly rushed into a hall where a few people quietly sat with a loud noise.
“Elders, the leader stormed the North alone. He wants to settle things once and for all.” The youth said in a panic.
“What? Yu is not the kind of person that acts rashly.” One of the men said.
“You know the situation. Zejia Chen, his brother, is still unconscious. Also, we should not forget that it was because of his brother that we fought the wolves for thirty years.” One of the men sighed helplessly.
“Go and gather all capable men and women. We will move immediately.” The first speaker ordered the youth.
In the wolf community in the North, it was a massacre. Zejia Yu was brutal as he cut down the wolves on his path.
In the wolf community, an alarm rang, followed by a cold voice.
