Chapter 493 - : Training For The Two Ladies (1/2)
One strike, one kill!
Ou Yangming, who had been quietly observing the fight, was surprised.
He was not shocked by the achievement of Ni Yinghong and Jiang Jiumei. The two ladies were considered to be legendary figures, and he had smithed pieces of equipment for them. As such, they could have slaughtered the water snake even if they fought alone.
Nonetheless, before the fight began, Ou Yangming never expected them to achieve such a mind-blowing feat even though he had confidence in them.
The young ladies worked in cooperation and killed the water snake with a joint attack.
They displayed remarkable sides of them seizing combat opportunities and utilizing their powers, hence it did not seem surprising that they attained such a result.
“Woof, woof…”
Big Yellow barked twice before it jumped into the water. It paddled in the river and arrived at where the water snake died in no time.
The water snake’s carca.s.s was split, but its body was still turning over on the water, causing the water surface of that spot to be the synonym of death. Nevertheless, Big Yellow was not afraid of it. It scooped the snake’s head with its claws and hurled it to the sh.o.r.e. There were no splashes around the snake’s head throughout the process, which proved how perfectly the big yellow dog was able to control its power.
Ou Yangming nodded and thought, ‘Big Yellow has finally reached the standard of a spirit beast.’
The big yellow dog was in disgust when it glanced at the water snake’s raging body. It suddenly opened its mouth and let out a deafening roar.
An airwave was instantly released from its mouth, and it drove the water snake’s body into the air such that an arc was formed in mid-air before the body landed on the sh.o.r.e. Although the water snake’s body still jerked on the sh.o.r.e, it could not stir up even a storm anymore.
Ni Yinghong and Jiang Jiumei gasped. They looked at each other and had more respect for Big Yellow’s performance.
‘How could an airwave spat by it be so powerful? It doesn’t seem like it can be achieved by a half-spirit beast.’
“Lil’ Ming, look…” Ni Yinghong was astounded.
Ou Yangming chuckled but cursed internally, ‘Idiot, now that you put up such a show, even a fool knows your true strength.’
Since Ni Yinghong was already suspicious, he no longer tried to keep it a secret from her, thus he revealed the truth with a smile. “Elder Sister Ying, Big Yellow had already advanced into a spirit beast. Hehe, now that we’re protected by three spirit beasts, we’ll complete our task perfectly and go home.”
Ni Yinghong looked deeply at him and remarked, “Lil’ Ming, you did great.”
Ou Yangming smiled bitterly. He knew she was somewhat displeased because he kept a secret from her, so he quickly went forward and expressed, “Elder Sister Ying, the joint action between you and Jiumei really opened my eyes. You’re amazing to have killed a great-ancestor-level half-spirit beast in one strike.”
The young ladies exchanged glances. The fight was extremely short, but it was a triumphant one for them. Therefore, they were elated after being praised by Ou Yangming.
“I was rather hesitant when you requested to fight the Aquatics’ spirit beast, but I’m completely at ease now.” Ou Yangming nodded.
Even though the young ladies were not capable enough to resist a spirit beast yet, at the very least, they could defend against it and escape.
‘What’s there to show off about that bit of skill? If I made a move instead, I’ll surely peck those creatures to their deaths regardless of the number.’ The little bird in the birdcage looked away. It somehow despised Ni Yinghong and Jiang Jiumei, but it did not attack them because it knew Ou Yangming valued them very much.
In actuality, the little red bird was not fully grown, but it looked incredibly adorable.
Ni Yinghong and Jiang Jiumei were very fond of it too, but the little red bird seemed to have been born with a cold aura. Not to mention them, even Wu Hanning dared not get close to it.
Ou Yangming noted after some thought, “Elder Sister Ying, given that there’s such a formidable water snake in the water, I’m such it gathered a group of powerhouses from the Aquatics. If those creatures aren’t taken care of, they’ll be a serious problem for the Humans.”
The two young ladies were not bloodthirsty, but they looked grave at the moment.
“Lil’ Ming, I understand,” Ni Yinghong said in a deep voice, “Jiumei, let’s go.”
Jiang Jiumei responded to her and followed her to the water.
The river water undulated, but the young ladies walked as though they were on flat ground.
