Hidden genius: Black belly snake - Chapter 316: Your snake is fiesty Part4

Tang Yue stared at the two flaming dark red eyes looking down at her, eyes that clearly belonged to something that shouldn’t exist in this world.

“A demon?” She gasped.

Weren’t these supposed to be merely beings of myth and folktales? How is there a demon standing in front of me right now?

Tang Yue instantly leaped back, moving several feet away from the demonic figure.

The mysterious entity looked like a giant black bear but with terribly ominous eyes.

Dark elemental wisps were oozing out of its body, turning the ground it touched into a wasteland.

Its eyes moved as it traced Tang Yue’s slender figure.

The demon did not wait for her to gain a foothold and lunged forward, swiping at her with its giant paws.

In the darkness of the night, its movements were almost invisible except for its burning red eyes, which looked like the depths of hell.

“Little Plum. Do it now.”

Tang Yue shouted as she prepared to cast the highest grade fire magic spell that she could muster.

Little Plum’s round body made of flames sizzled, crackling and roaring intensely and the next instant, several draconian heads arose from the ground.

These interlaced with the black dark elemental vapors and the entire area became a violent toxic battleground.

However, unfortunately, the black demon towering over Tang Yue currently was not in the least affected by these flames.

But still, this was exactly what Tang Yue was aiming for.

Though she had no idea what this demon was and how to defeat it, she did indeed know that its strength currently came from the formation behind it.

The elves summoned this demon and were also clearly supplying the mana for the demon’s strength.

So instead of attacking the monstrous abomination in front of her, Tang Yue aimed for the rather vulnerable elves.

Her eyes glinted as she saw the flames slowly corrode the dark elemental barrier that had formed around the elves standing in a triangular formation.

The barrier trembled and roared as several fire dragon heads rammed against it.

But how could the demon remain still while all this was happening?

It couldn’t care less about the fate of its summoners.

Its only target was right in front of it and it was summoned to tear apart this target.

So it kept swiping at Tang Yue, her nimble body only barely avoiding its dark claws.

Even though Tang Yue had an immunity to the elemental attacks to some extent, she could tell that this demon’s dark elemental fumes were much stronger and her body can’t withstand it.

Even at close proximity, she could already feel its corrosive burn on her skin.

So the woman who had confidently accepted the elf’s dark elemental slash did not dare to do the same against this demon as well.

Tang Yue continued evading its attacks with the full power that she could muster as if her life depended on it.

Charlotte saw the woman struggle and barely hold on.

She wanted to help her but the minute she stepped out of her lightning barrier, she knew that she would be a goner.

She saw Tang Yue’s tactics and understood that the most useful thing that she could do was attack the elves in the formation once the barrier comes down.

So she patiently waited for it, an opportunity to attack and end this once and for all, her nails digging through her skin.

“I am still too useless,” Charlotte muttered.

Her eyes reddened as she watched the demon taking another swing at Tang Yue.

Its mouth opened and a burst of thick black fumes roared out directly blocking Tang Yue’s path of escape.

It couldn’t touch her as she was moving with extreme finesse so it spat out a bucketful of corrosive black flame onto her.

However, when the flames erupted, the target had already disappeared.

Tang Yue noticed the gushing swirls of dark elemental energy from the corner of her eyes and immediately morphed into her serpentine form.

She dove into the loose ground underneath and slithered inside to avoid the brunt of the attack.

The demon snorted in anger seeing that its target had once again escaped its attack, fleeing away skillfully.

It roared and started digging out the ground in anger.

Time was running out for it and it knew it. It wanted to taste living flesh before it was summoned back into the nether realm, the world of demons.

As it couldn’t dig out the snake that had burrowed underground, its eyes fell on the small ball of lightning, where Charlotte was standing.

ROAR

The demon stomped on the ground, jumping with both its gigantic legs and landed next to Charlotte with a loud thud.

The elf shrunk back in fear, her body trembling, unable to withstand the pressure emanating from the demon.

Not because Charlotte was weak but because this was in fact how normal people usually reacted.

Tang Yue was rather the exception thanks to her divine lotus constitution.

So she didn’t feel the overwhelming pressure of the dark elemental wisps from the demon’s body.

The demon roared and its body shook as it swiped the lightning cage with its claws.

The barrier trembled under the impact, barely holding on.

Meanwhile, Tang Yue’s head bobbed up out of the ground.

She knew that Charlotte can hold on, so she directly went to the triangular formation to bash the Five Generals.

Little Plum’s Dragon dance spell had already done a number on them, so Tang Yue didn’t want to let this opportunity go to waste.

She rotated her fire mana core and channeled it through her veins, before letting it all out through her palms to produce a small fire tornado.

KARAKA BOOM!

The dark elemental barrier collapsed almost at the same time as Charlotte’s lightning barrier collapsed.

But before the demon could take another swipe at Charlotte, the fire tornado had already cut through the defenses and torched the four elves, thus breaking their concentration and effectively ending their summon.

The fifth elf was also already unconscious and he couldn’t help them out anymore.

So without its attack ever reaching Charlotte, the demon entirely vanished into thin air, going back to the demon realm just as suddenly as it had come out.

Only after seeing that, Tang Yue breathed out, sighing in relief, but the fight was not over yet.

The elves were still standing, ready to slaughter her.

Tang Yue shuffled back, her feet only stopping when she was at a sufficient distance.

She swung her sword forward, expecting a plethora of spells hurled at her, but surprisingly, the elves stood still, not even moving a muscle.

Tang Yue did not wait and give them time to recover.

She took a step forward and heaved before sending out several sword slashes intermixed with fire elemental energy.

The attacks smoothly cut through the air and landed on the elves one after the other as if they were stationary target dummies.

They then even started falling down like empty dominoes.

“Huh? Is that it?” Tang Yue scratched her head and pondered.

Was it some sort of backlash from having their summoning rudely interrupted? She couldn’t tell.

Charlotte, as well, recovered from her stupor by now and walked over to stand next to Tang Yue.

Just walking over the dark elemental wasteland cut through her boots and burnt her feet.

She used her sword to poke at the elves and nodded at Tang Yue. “It does look like they are done for.”

“Heh. What a pity! Didn’t they call themselves the Shadow Generals or something?”

“They should have at least sparred with us some more.”

She chuckled and raised her hand, placing her thumb and index finger in her mouth, sending out a loud whistle.

The panther and Little Blue immediately came dashing towards them, and along with Little Plum, the three beasts started feasting on the Saint realm experts.

Their teeth dug into the rugged flesh and since it was too hard for them, Little Plum once again cast a Dragon Dance spell roasting the elves, making their bodies tender and soft.

Tang Yue and Charlotte did not intervene and allowed the beasts to take care of this task.

“Let’s see what bounty we got today?” Tang Yue chuckled and sat down nearby, on a patch of cleaner forest ground, away from the scorched earth.

While the three beasts feasted on the Saint realm experts, tearing out their throats first, Charlotte and Tang Yue peered over their spatial rings, taking out different items.

The men even had a lot of gold and gems in their possession.

“What a bunch of wealthy assholes!” Tang Yue giggled.

“Of course. What did you think?”

“These Generals were one of the top attack units of the elven high counsel.” Charlotte sighed, still unable to believe the events of the night.

She was clearly overwhelmed and would have been defeated if she was alone, but Tang Yue had handled everything brilliantly.

It wouldn’t be wrong to say that she had soloed five Saint realm experts all on her own. One against five!

The dwarf standing in the distance, watching over them this entire time, couldn’t help but break out a cold sweat.

He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at their excited eyes looking over the treasures.

These two female disciples of his were downright hooligans!
