Chapter 52: The Might of One Punch! (2/2)
Even before he approached Yu Tong, she could sense that something strange was going on, and her expression suddenly flickered.
For unknown reasons, Yu Tong had the bizarre sensation that the power of rage in Nie Tian’s fist was something that could kill her with merely one punch.
Fear stretched across her face.
“Blood shadows, return to master!”
In a split second, each and every malevolent blood shadow blurred into action, as if they had turned into motes of blood-colored light.
In the next second, seven blood shadows arrived in front of Yu Tong.
The seven of them lined up in a row, facing Nie Tian, before they successively threw themselves at him.
“Die!”
Nie Tian let out an explosive roar, throwing out his punch, which was filled with spiritual energy and raging fury.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
Under the destructive power of Nie Tian’s punch, each and every blood shadow exploded, splashing about and filling the sky with a bloody mist.
Even lined up in a row, the seven blood shadows failed to stop the momentum of the punch, and were completely destroyed.
The power of the punch wasn’t weakened in the slightest, and continued to barrel towards Yu Tong.
At this moment, Yu Tong’s flickering red eyes turned grim as her delicate fingers shifted to another incantation. “Forbidden Blood Technique – Blood Shield!”
Upon her words, her blood seemed to have been sucked out of her, and that exquisite and curvy body of hers suddenly shriveled up.
WHOOKSH! WHOOKSH! WHOOKSH!
A large amount of blood light suddenly shot out, turning into a small blood shield right in front of her.
It was exactly when the blood shield took form that Nie Tian’s punch arrived.
BOOM!
The next moment, the blood shield exploded with a loud crash, splashing specks of blood-colored light around.
Yu Tong let out a muffled coughing sound, and blood spilt out from the corners of her dark-red lips.
SHEW!
She turned into a blood shadow herself, and retreated through air like a floating ghost.
However, she could only remain in the air for a moment. After landing on the ground, she ran off into the distance without looking behind her. “Let’s get out of here! “
The moment they heard Yu Tong’s order, the other four Blood sect disciples also left the battlefield. They knew that even if they could fight for a little longer, they would still be unable to kill all the Cloudsoaring sect disciples.
Likewise turning into four blood shadows, they fled along with Yu Tong.
After consuming all of his spiritual power with his one punch, Nie Tian couldn’t help but drop to the ground, panting heavily.
Nie Xian and others were still influenced by the forbidden technique, Reverse Blood Flow, and could only watch Yu Tong and the other four leave.
BANG!
When Yu Tong disappeared in the distance, the remaining three blood shadows also exploded,turning into pools of blood that fell to the ground.
It was only then that An Ying, Pan Tao, and Zheng Rui finally arrived.
“Where are they?”
“Where are the Blood sect’s people?”
“That way!” Jiang Lingzhu pointed towards the direction that Yu Tong had escaped. “Chase them! They’re hurt. Do your best to kill them!”
“Are you alright?” An Ying asked concernedly.
“I’m fine! Go! Chase them down!” Jiang Lingzhu said anxiously.
“Alright!”
Knowing Tong Hao, Guo Qi, and the rest of the group were right behind them, An Ying, Pan Tao, and Zheng Rui decided to go after the Blood sect disciples.
After they left, Jiang Lingzhu, who had just broken away from the forbidden technique Reverse Blood Flow, blinked and looked at Nie Tian with a burning gaze in her eyes.
It wasn’t just her. Nie Xian, who had just crawled out from the lake, was also staring at Nie Tian with incomparable astonishment in his eyes, as if this was the first day that he came to know this clan brother of his.
Also from the Cloudsoaring sect, Ye Gumo, who had escaped death moments ago, looked blankly at Nie Tian before asking Jiang Lingzhu, “He’s the Nie Tian you talked about?! The one who uncle Li asked us to look after in the Green Illusion dimension?”
Jiang Lingzhu felt somewhat embarrassed, nodding briefly. “Yes, he is.”
“He needs us to take care of him?” Ye Gumo said with a complicated expression, “As I was retreating in defeat just now, I clearly saw that he destroyed the evil woman’s seven blood shadows with one single punch, and even shattered her blood shield. He was the one who fought off that evil witch with one strike of his fist. He… really needs us to take care of him?”
After a brief moment of silence, Ye Gumo shook his head, and joked, “Junior martial sister, you probably heard wrong. Perhaps, uncle Li meant for him to take care of us in the Green Illusion dimension.”
Jiang Lingzhu laughed and finally relaxed. “Hahaha, I might have heard him wrong then.”
