The jade Ruyi suddenly brightened up! Aiming for the chest, the snow-white gleam intensified, and the pillar of light silently yet forcefully cornered the enemy!
Strikes from the front and back!
All for this moment!
Real trust and telepathy could never possibly be easily destroyed by an outsider!
That person seemed to be slightly stunned. As he zoned out for a moment, he was already unable to avoid the powerful and murderous strikes from his front and back. It was too close to him, and they showed no mercy at all!
At that moment, he understood that Meng Fuyao was merely pretending to not be able to distinguish the real Zhangsun Wuji. She was trying to make him underestimate them, and then fall into the trap of a combined attack.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click visiting.
”Amazing! So you too were actually well-prepared!”
As he laughed, his body suddenly thinned.
He really thinned—he resembled a piece of thousand-layers cake that was suddenly flattened. The layers were still there, but they were even more tightly pressed against each other. Similarly, his width expanded, but his body flattened in such a creepy way. Under the dim light, one could almost see his bones and skin beneath his green robes being flattened.
That process was one that superseded the limits of what a human body could do. It was the same as moving himself in a box which had no space left, and hence, the fatal spots of his body were no longer at their original positions.
”Ping-cha!”
The jade Ruyi and black knife struck the heart simultaneously, and there was the uniform noise of the human body being stabbed through. However, the position of the strike was no longer where the heart was.
Meng Fuyao could even clearly feel that her knife had stabbed in, but it landed in the spot between two rib bones. The distance between the bones was only paper-thin, but her knife somehow brushed by the bones and ended up slotting into that tiny hole. It would at most cause injury to his skin and flesh, but there wouldn't even be a fracture.
This bastard even calculated this distance in that split second, and it was so extremely accurate!
An almost legendary ”Anti-Constriction Trick”!
A formidable instinct that an exceptional expert could use to be in control of the battle, and seek survival in times of emergency!
Hence, when the jade Ruyi and the sharp dagger stabbed in, blood spluttered out of that person's ribs. But he merely looked over and laughed in that thin voice of his. ”Amazing, amazing. I haven't seen my own blood in decades!”
Without stopping at all, Meng Fuyao tried to raise her dagger up his chest. As she gritted her teeth, she smirked. ”Really? Do you want to see more?”
”No, thanks.” That person smiled. ”I've been very courteous to the both of you. It's time I see your blood.”
When he finished speaking, there was an immediate shrill. It was not very loud, but it was extremely unpleasant to hear. It was like the shrill of tens of thousand snakes coming from a deep alley, combined with the image of a corpse mountain filled with white bones, and the long call of apemen who had become mythical spirits, calling out for the demons and monsters in the dark and creepy mountains.
Suddenly, there was a tremor!
This tremor caused everything to sway and the ground beneath them to sway. The splits in the wooden railings widened silently, and the oil lamp on the wall beside the cell door extinguished and dropped onto the ground.
Meanwhile, Destiny Rebellion in Meng Fuyao's palm started to vibrate as well. The vibration quickly moved from the tip of the dagger to its handle and lightly bounced off her wrist. That caused Meng Fuyao's hand to go numb for a moment, and she felt that her heart seemed to be very suffocated after that shrill, causing her to be unable to catch her breath. Instinctively, she activated her inner breath to save herself, but just then, the shrill changed.
The shrill sounded narrow at first, but it suddenly became very wide and seemed to expand into the bright sky. If there were demons from the dark realms of Hell a while ago, now there were only bright skies that floated above the Nine Heavens. There was not even a transition from that extremely dark to an extremely bright stage. It was as though darkness had just clouded one's eyes for a second, and the surroundings suddenly brightened afterward.
There was only one consequence under such a situation—one would instantly lose their eyesight.
Just as how if there was a sudden compression and then expansion of the chest, one would instantly feel stifled and dizzy.
Additionally, though the inner breath was activated at the moment that the heart was suffocated, when the target location to rescue suddenly disappeared, the inner breath would turn to attack the host body.
Only a split second was required for blood to surge like a tide.
When experts battled against each other, only a split second was required too!
That shrill lasted for just a short instant, and in that instant, many things had happened. Meng Fuyao's heart felt suffocated for a moment and expanded for the next. Then, she felt giddy, and she almost blacked out.
Right after, she heard a light giggle from the enemy. She shifted her body to move away from her sword, and she felt the movement of wind in front of her face. Someone was grabbing towards her face.
Meng Fuyao immediately lowered her head to try to shun, but before she could, the wind current moved again. Someone glided in front of her and blocked her.
Meng Fuyao quickly dragged that person towards her.
Almost at the same moment, that person dragged Meng Fuyao towards him.
Both were as agile as fish, and they dragged each other towards themselves continuously, trying to put themselves in danger instead of the other party.
Seeing this scene, the enemy laughed. ”What a lovey-dovey couple. I'm getting giddy watching you two spin in front of me,” he said in a teasing tone.
Suddenly, his arms cracked and made an external 90-degrees bend. It actually went around Zhangsun Wuji who was blocking in front, swerved to reach Meng Fuyao who was standing behind, and he reached towards Meng Fuyao's chest!
