Chapter 442: Destroying Two Yanluo Lords Again
High above the capital of Mao, the fight among the Yanluo Lords reached a fever pitch.
Two Yanluo Lords, working together in concert, grievously wounded the Monkey Yanluo. All around them, a group of Heaven Immortal cursed effigies were gathered to prevent the Monkey Yanluo from escaping.
“You’re done for, Monkey Yanluo,” the Rooster Yanluo said coldly.
The three Yanluo Lords were all injured to some extent, but the Monkey Yanluo’s injuries were the worst of the lot. He was bloody all over, and a terrible sight to behold. He wanted to run but simply couldn’t flee.
“Rooster Yanluo, are you really going to do all this just for a single Yanluo Court?!” the Monkey Yanluo howled.
“Don’t you think it’s rather too late for that?” the Rooster Yanluo replied disdainfully.
“Submit to your fate, Monkey Yanluo!” the Rabbit Yanluo exclaimed.
“To my fate? To be killed by the two of you, you mean? Why don’t I take you both down with me? Come on, then!” the Monkey Yanluo roared.
His body ballooned up as tremendous strength exuded from it. The cursed effigies all around blanched.
“He’s going to self-destruct. Be careful!” the Rooster Yanluo shouted as he retreated.
“Let him self-destruct, then. I’ll activate my Yanluo Court and collect all the fragments of his cursed spiritual avatar,” the Rabbit Yanluo said fiercely.
Even though she claimed to be unafraid, she still took a few steps back.
“You asked for this,” the Monkey Yanluo gritted out, his body inflating.
Just then, a black figure rushed straight for him so quickly that everyone else was taken aback.
“Who’s there?” the Rooster and Rabbit Yanluos asked warily.
The shadow pierced through the Monkey Yanluo’s heart, fast as lightning. Blood rushed out from his chest as black light surged within, preventing him from self-destructing.
“Wouldn’t it be a waste for you to self-destruct just like that? Thankfully, these shards of power I possess from the hell of live burial can help absorb that energy and seal it away,” a familiar voice stated from behind the Monkey Yanluo.
“Ox Yanluo? What are you doing here? Aren’t you in secluded cultivation?” the Monkey Yanluo murmured weakly in fright.
“I was, but that doesn’t mean I’m unaware of what’s happening in the world at large. Xiao Nanfeng sent word to me via my subordinates saying that a huge prize awaited me. I didn’t believe him at first, but it seems as though I was mistaken. I’m glad I secretly headed over to watch the fight—otherwise, I might have missed it all, and this excellent opportunity as well. I really have to thank you, Rabbit Yanluo, Rooster Yanluo, haha!” The Ox Yanluo laughed in excitement.
Without any hesitation, he consumed the Monkey Yanluo.
“Xiao Nanfeng informed you of this, too? What a schemer. He had us all dancing in the palm of his hand!” the Monkey Yanluo exclaimed.
“Attack, now!” the Rabbit Yanluo commanded.
The two Yanluo Lords struck the Ox Yanluo simultaneously, along with the ordinary cursed effigies all around them.
However, the Ox Yanluo ignored their attacks and devoured the Monkey Yanluo in a single gulp.
“No! Spit him out!” the Rooster Yanluo demanded.
The Ox Yanluo shrugged off the other Yanluo Lords and cursed effigies’ attacks as he continued to consume the Monkey Yanluo, ignoring the tempest that formed all around him.
“Don’t you worry. You’re next, haha!” The Ox Yanluo laughed.
Just then, another black figure appeared. A claw thrust into the Rooster Yanluo’s back in a spurt of blood.
“What? The Tiger Yanluo’s here, too? No!” the Rooster Yanluo shouted.
The Tiger Yanluo began to consume the Rooster Yanluo.
“No, no! I won’t meet my end like this. Save me, Rabbit Yanluo!” the Rooster Yanluo cried out in fear.
When the Rabbit Yanluo leapt toward the Tiger Yanluo, however, he ignored her. He allowed her to land her strike as he devoured the Rooster Yanluo.
The Tiger Yanluo was forced back, but the moment before he closed his mouth, the Rooster Yanluo tossed something dark at the Rabbit Yanluo.
“Rabbit Yanluo, thank you for your gift of this Yanluo Court. Even if I die, I won’t have it go to the Tiger Yanluo!” the Rooster Yanluo shouted in his last moments.
The Tiger Yanluo frowned and attempted to wrest it back for himself, but the Rabbit Yanluo got to it first. The Tiger Yanluo struck her, but she caught and secured the Yanluo Court as he swallowed the Rooster Yanluo whole. He glowered at the Rabbit Yanluo.
“Did Xiao Nanfeng inform you of this too, Tiger Yanluo?” the Ox Yanluo demanded.
The Tiger Yanluo smirked. “Xiao Nanfeng didn’t tell me anything, and he wouldn’t dare do so. Only my main body was in secluded cultivation, not my avatars. How could I be unaware of such a ruckus?”
The next moment, the Tiger and Ox Yanluos simultaneously shot toward the Rabbit Yanluo, who turned tail to flee.
Right as the Tiger Yanluo was about to catch the Rabbit Yanluo, the Ox Yanluo slammed a palm at him. “She’s mine!”
The two Yanluo Lords began to attack each other, allowing the Rabbit Yanluo to escape by the narrowest of margins.
“Flee!” the Rabbit Yanluo commanded.
Her rabbit-headed humanoids began to flee by her side.
“Do you think you can run away? Stop them!” the Ox Yanluo shouted.
“Understood!”
A large group of Heaven Immortal ox-headed humanoids appeared outside the capital of Mao and headed straight for the battlefield.
“Keep the Rabbit Yanluo here!” the Tiger Yanluo shouted.
“Understood!”
Tiger-headed humanoids appeared from the forests in the distance.
High in the air, the battle raged on. The Tiger and Ox Yanluos fought for the Rabbit Yanluo with their lives on the line. The Rabbit Yanluo wouldn’t have been able to take either of them on by herself, but their mutual competition allowed her to remain out of harm’s way for the moment.
Even so, she was heavily wounded from the heated battle that had already taken place, and she wouldn’t be able to hold on much longer.
Down on the ground, by the copper pillar, the Rabbit Yanluo’s avatar raged, “Xiao Nanfeng, this is all your fault!”
“Oh? Rabbit Yanluo, you created this problem for yourself. Don’t you think you’re the one to blame? If you hadn’t caught Yaoguang, none of this would have happened,” Xiao Nanfeng replied coldly.
The Rabbit Yanluo’s avatar fumed. She couldn’t have expected that Xiao Nanfeng would be able to take down all three Yanluo Lords and their subordinates without even doing much of anything on his own.
“Let’s go!” the Rabbit Yanluo’s avatar shouted.
She wasn’t able to handle Xiao Nanfeng at the moment; she would have to cut her losses.
With her rabbit-headed humanoids, she headed straight for her Yanluo Court.
“Break!” Xiao Nanfeng shouted. Gett your đť’‡avorite đť’Źovels at no/v/e/lbđť’Šn(.)com
He and Yaoguang shattered the copper pillar overhead, returning them their freedom.
The next moment, he saw the Rabbit Yanluo’s Yanluo Court fly toward the horizon and vanish from sight.
“This isn’t good. We have to go!” Xiao Nanfeng cried out.
He tugged on Lady Yaoguang’s hand as they fled. Just then, a huge Heaven’s Hand pushed aside the blood-colored cloud of annihilation and slammed down where they had been, smashing apart the cursed effigies all around.
Heaven’s Hand drew back and headed toward the Yanluo Lords in the skies.
“No!” the Yanluo Lords shouted in fear.
Heaven’s Hand grabbed onto the Tiger and Ox Yanluos. The Rabbit Yanluo’s main body and her other avatar fled toward the horizon without any hesitation whatsoever.
Heaven’s Hand generated huge bolts of lightning that crashed down on the two Yanluo Lords.
