Chapter 246 - Fox continued (1/2)

Hao Xuan joined the soldiers this time and attacked the three-tailed fox together.

Even for Kuo who was now on the Seventh Stage of the Spirit realm, it was next to impossible to pierce its skin.

The only one that had managed to do any actual damage to the creature was Ensis. His sword left blue bruises on its skin but it still wasn't enough to draw blood.

Hao Xuan started cursing as he waited for the rest of the party to arrive. None of his energies were effective against the fox. It wasn't even affected by the Emperors Qi. And when he tried to alter the direction of its attacks with the Force energy it felt like he was trying to push away an entire mountain.

”F*ck sakes, where are they?!” he shouted in desperation.

It had already been almost five minutes since the woman was ”imprisoned” in First's technique and it wouldn't last much longer.

Another minute passed and the people he was waiting for finally arrived.

Yu Bo with his staff, Tao Hu with his spear and shortsword combo, and Xing Zhi with her pair of bronze gloves that had spikes sticking out of them.

”You're late!” Hao Xuan shouted while avoiding one of the fox tails.

Yu Bo was covered in blood. Even his bald head that shone no matter what had its 'light' taken away. ”We aren't alone here. There are a lot of other beasts around and more keep coming. I think they are the reinforcements for these guys,” he replied while taking deep breaths.

”Rest later, bring this b*stard down! We're running out of time,” Hao Xuan reprimanded when he saw Yu Bo about to take a seat on the muddy ground.

*sigh*

”Fine fine. Let's go, use formation C,” he waved at Tao Hu and Xing Zhi.

”Mhm,” they both nodded back in agreement.

Hao Xuan stepped back and observed their movements. Other than the highest ranked people everyone else had stepped back as well. The fox was only so big and hundreds of people attacking it at once could be counter-productive.

Kuo, Hash, and Maddy were some of the few that were still attacking it.

The Yo Bo trio joined hands and attacked the fox from three different directions at once. All of their movements were completely in sync. When one was about to be attacked the other would move in and strike.

It was like clockwork. The fox raged as its stamina was shaved off bit by bit.

”YOU FILTHY CREATURES! YOU WILL PAY! ALL OF YOU WILL PAY!” its loud voice echoed throughout the swamp.

”You join in too, quick,” Hao Xuan ordered the Kappa who had been standing behind him for some time now.

”A-As you wish, master,” Bo bowed from the waist and with some hesitation, joined the fight as well.
