Chapter 504 - A Lazy Turtle (2/2)

Since the two ladies were working together, whenever the spirit turtle focused on one of them, the other would seize the opportunity to stir up trouble.

Moreover, as careless as the giant turtle was, it dared not let Jiang Jiumei stab its eyes. Thus, it kept turning its head while resisting the two ladies. While it had the upper hand, it could not get rid of its opponents no matter what.

Hong Feiyu watched from a distance for some time before he finally sighed. “Brother Ou, the two of them have such tacit cooperation that they’re able to stop the Aquatics’ spirit beast. It’s truly… Unbelievable.”

There was a huge disparity between ordinary cultivators and spirit beasts. Hong Feiyu had fought the two ladies in the city, but he did not think that they could really resist a spirit beast.

Now that the situation on the battlefield was right in front of him, it opened his eyes.

In spite of that, he paid more attention to Ni Yinghong.

Between the two young ladies, Jiang Jiumei seemed to be in more danger because she was closer to the giant turtle, but the sharp-eyed Hong Feiyu could tell that Ni Yinghong—a caster—was the key.

Putting aside the ice-mastery spell, which was obviously a power from her equipment, the wind-mastery magic art was being wonderfully used by Ni Yinghong. In fact, there were times Hong Feiyu wanted to shout with praise.

At such a young age, Ni Yinghong could use a wind-mastery spell so profoundly in the lower realm.

The more Hong Feiyu watched, the more he felt the young lady had a promising future.

Ou Yangming chuckled and said, “They’re too inexperienced, so they can’t undertake a task alone. Please give them more pointers, Brother Hong.”

Hong Feiyu sighed. “Brother Ou, you’re being too humble. They’re able to become entangled with the giant turtle by joining hands. Even if I attacked the creature, there’s only so much I can do.”

“Since the giant turtle’s self-healing ability is so notable, how did you fight against it previously?” Ou Yangming was struck with a thought.

“Similar to what they’re doing now, I kept going around it and looked for an opportunity.” Hong Feiyu smiled bitterly. He stared with bright eyes at the giant turtle’s large eyes and explained, “My weapon couldn’t hurt it, but if I can poke its eyes to blind it… Hehe, perhaps I’ll be able to make it suffer a terrible loss.”

Ou Yangming was stunned, and he could not help but laugh.

Whether it was Hong Feiyu or Jiang Jiumei, they spotted the giant turtle’s eyes at once. Nevertheless, anyone would have had the same thought.

“Brother Ou, if the ladies can last an hour, the giant spirit will escape,” Hong Feiyu noted.

Ou Yangming recalled what Hong Feiyu said earlier about how lazy the giant turtle was. Honestly, judging from the strength displayed by the creature, it was definitely superior to Hong Feiyu. Even if they became entangled in a fight, after a long time, the turtle could endure and kill him in the end.

However, Hong Feiyu and the giant turtle were on par with each other even after many fights, and the latter would withdraw itself every time. This could only mean that it was a lazy turtle.

“It’s almost an hour,” Ou Yangming stated with a smile after some thought.

The young fellow promised to let Ni Yinghong and Jiang Jiumei fight the spirit beast, but there was a limit to it; he had to make sure that they were safe. Besides, an hour would be enough for them to gain experience. If the fight went on, even if the giant turtle would not leave, Ou Yangming would not sit by idly anymore.

After all, fighting against a spirit beast meant that one would always be on the verge of death, and there was no room for errors at all.

Ni Yinghong and Jiang Jiumei eventually had better chemistry with each other, and the former’s control over the whole situation was quickly increasing. Jiang Jiumei was sometimes in dangerous spots in the beginning but as Ni Yinghong could apply her wind-mastery spell with more ease, such situations did not happen anymore.

Despite cooperating so well, they still failed to hurt the giant turtle’s eyes.

The gigantic creature protected its only weakness very well.

After an hour, the giant turtle began to make bigger moves, but it also became more half-hearted. At last, it glared hatefully at Ni Yinghong and Jiang Jiumei as if it wanted to remember them forever. Following that, it lazily turned around and slowly sank into the water.

As said by Hong Feiyu, if the two ladies could last an hour, the giant turtle would not be interested in the fight anymore.

Ni Yinghong and Jiang Jiumei looked at each other, but they could not stop the giant turtle from leaving.

Ou Yangming laughed out loud and gave an order.

Before long, a black shadow in the sky flew over at the speed of light. Concurrently, an even more mountainous creature took earth-shattering steps as it ran over as well.
