Chapter 249 Grace of Blood (1/2)
On the arena, Qin Hao saw Shadow's sharp claw going to Liu Yan's head. He stood up immediately but stopped before he rushed out.
“Ah!”
A woman's scream. People all thought it was from Liu Yan. Li Zhanwu and other people of the Sky Group were so surprised that they all stood up.
However, to all their surprise, the scream came from not Liu Yan but Shadow.
Upon touching Liu Yan’s hair, Shadow turned around and flew back, falling on the other side of the arena. At that moment she had a few silver needles stuck in her hand. At least two of them pierced through her fingers.
The fact was that Liu Yan put the silver needles gave and taught by Qin Hao in her hair. Shadow's claw made the silver needles stuck in her hands immediately.
”Little sister.” Long Taibai was so anxious that he stood up immediately and almost rushed out. However, Shadow cast her eyes on him, telling him not to move. He stopped. At a loss for seconds, he sat back with helplessness while his face brimmed with concern and worry.
People of the Dragon Group all knew well Long Taibai's character. They had never seen him be so nervous and worried about someone. Who was that masked woman on the stage? Which little sister of his was she? They were curious.
On the arena, Shadow looked at the silver needles on her hands. She frowned slightly and before she was just ready to pull out the needles, the crack of the whip had hit.
With her agile dodge, the whip brushed the veil and lifted one corner of it, revealing part of her amazing appearance inside. Unfortunately, when people on the grandstand wanted to see clearly, the veil had already been closed, making them sigh with regret.
As Shadow was dodging the whip, she swung the hand with silver needles struck toward the front.
“Whew...” Those few silver needles that were stuck in her hand all became her hidden weapons and were shot to Liu Yan.
Liu Yan hastily brought back her whip. ”Papapa!” A whip wall was formed as she was shaking the whip and shot down the silver needles flying towards her.
”You have made me use a sword and you can smile in the hell.” Shadow yelled. ”Hum.” With the sound, Shadow reached out a soft sword from her waist. With the momentum of thunder, she broke Liu Yan's whip wall and her sword point rolled on the whip like a poisonous snake spitting its tongue.
The speed was so fast that it was too late for Liu Yan to react, and the tip of the sword rolled over her palm in a moment. It was too late to retreat, and the only way was to drop the whip.
However, Qin Hao gave her the whip, and she was unwilling to throw it away. And if there was no weapon, she would not be able to fight.
If she didn't give up, she had to give up one hand, but Qin Hao gave it to her. For a Martial Cultivator, abandoning weapons meant to give up life, so she would rather be crippled than gave up weapons.
With such a thought in mind, though, Liu Yan had been trained in the special troop. With risks approaching, she reacted out of the instinct, which was beyond her brain. She gave up the whip and jumped back immediately so that she avoided the fierce sword rushing towards her like a viper.
Weapons left her hands and the crowd in the grandstand whispered. It had been very clear that Liu Yan lost.
The Dragon group people all laughed, but they were a lot more cautious this time. They were not that blatant and high-profile like before. After all, the previous two examples were there. They had advantages and yet the result was reversed. They hoped that this time Shadow would not repeat such a mistake.
Only Long Taibai knew that Shadow wouldn't repeat such mistakes. As a top-class killer, it was impossible for her to make such a low-level mistake. What was more, the strength difference between the two people was too huge. It could be said that Shadow had absolute power. Facing with absolute power, all means were meaningless, no matter how skillful they were.
Shadow was then holding Liu Yan's long whip. She grew more surprised, ”What a good whip! I cannot imagine that you are using such an excellent weapon.”
”Give me my whip!” Liu Yan lost her whip and rushed up while yelling with anger. What greeted her was the vicious whip towards her.
”Pa!”
“Ah!”
Liu Yan was whipped out in the air. She crashed on the floor with clothes broken. Her snowy skin showed a shocking bloody wound.
”Want your whip back? Ok, see if you can make it.” Shadow stared coldly at Liu Yan on the floor, playing with the whip which was just grabbed from her.
The whip was well made, and its length could be adjusted. She had no chance to use such a good weapon, but it was in the hand of Liu Yan, such a low-level Martial Cultivator. She could not understand.
”Give up. We give up.” On the grandstand, Li Zhanwu had to stand up and shout to admit defeat. This was his second time to stand up and shout to admit defeat. For a general like him, he felt ashamed.
But the situation forced him to do so. In order to preserve the few talents of the Sky Group, he had to make sacrifice.
”Damn. It is so hard for me.” General Li felt so sad and plaintive.
”You have given up. You still want a fight?” On the arena, Shadow said indifferently.
Liu Yan struggled to stand up. She did not care about Shadow's words. She opened her eyes widely and yelled with anger again, ”Give me my whip.” With the yell, she rushed out without fear of death. She was determined to take back her whip, the gift from her instructor.
”I will kill you for help!” Shadow had a cold look, waved the whip.
”Papapa...”
With Shadow's power, the whip was waved at a speed, which was impossible for Liu Yan to dodge, let alone Liu Yan did not even think of dodging. She rushed towards the whip instead.
Liu Yan again fell on the ground. This time she had more than a wound on her body. Her clothes were almost all torn, revealing the scenery inside. Of course, no one was interested in enjoying the scenery at present. What they saw was the bloody wound of the whip.
