Chapter 106: Kamikaze (1/2)
The Hellflame Tiger opened its sharp and ravenous claw as he leaped toward to meet Elder Jing head-on.
Elder Jing narrowed her eyes on the action as she parried his claws before moving to the right side.
Afterward, Elder Jing made a vertical slash down at the Hellflame Tiger with her sword.
CLANK!
”Tch, not even a scratch.” Elder Jing cursed when the sword couldn't even penetrate its body slightly.
However, this was expected as she kicked the ground to retreat backward to avoid the Hellflame Tiger's retaliation.
Right as Elder Jing retreated, the Hellflame Tiger twitched its brow as he roared loudly to chase after Elder Jing, clearly enraged by her audacity.
With a leap, the Hellflame Tiger caught up with Elder Jing instantly, and right as it was about to claw onto Elder Jing, Yang Wei came from behind and raised his sword to hack the Hellflame Tiger down.
The Hellflame Tiger merely snorted at Yang Wei's futile effort as he was confident in his durable body to be able to deflect any sharp weapon.
”Heh, underestimating your opponent is a big mistake, Hellflame Tiger,” Yang Wei smirked at the Hellflame Tiger's nonchalant expression, almost like he didn't even bother about his appearance.
Yang Wei quickly called out Xiao Wei, shocking the Hellflame Tiger as he felt a sudden pressure from Xiao Wei.
Yang Wei curved his lips upward as the Hellflame Tiger could no longer dodge because of their close range and Xiao Wei sliced right through the Hellflame Tiger as it attempted to destroy his core completely.
The Hellflame Tiger realized his haughty behavior had caused him to lose this fight but he wasn't going to let Yang Wei and Elder Jing off for defeating him.
In his last-ditch of effort, the Hellflame Tiger used all of his remaining true qi to launch a Flame Burst, causing Elder Jing and Yang Wei to curse inwardly as they felt the full impact.
BOOOOOM!
Yang Wei and Elder Jing's projection was destroyed as they returned to their original body, reappearing back in the array.
Yang Wei and Elder Jing stared at each other with a bittersweet smile.
They managed to kill the Hellflame Tiger with the help of Xiao Wei but they were finished off by the Hellflame Tiger as well.
”The Hellflame Tiger actually resorted to a kamikaze tactic to ruin us,” Yang Wei cursed loudly at the despicable act of the Hellflame Tiger.
”Sigh, we have tried our best already.” Elder Jing said bitterly as she shook her head.
Afterward, she stepped off the array and Yang Wei followed behind as he waited for the next instruction.
”Are we going to leave the Pagoda now?” Yang Wei asked softly.
Elder Jing didn't say anything but nodded her head in response. The trial was too difficult for them to pass and she was already happy to be able to achieve this result.
