Chapter 849: Little Red’s Sacrifice
Ling Chuxi felt a sharp pain in her mind. It was obvious that the spiritual body of the sword spirit, which had yet to recover, had suffered another round of heavy damage. The opponent’s demonic blade now shone with a cold, strange light.
Could their blades actually absorb the spiritual energy of the sword spirit?
Ling Chuxi was shocked. If they kept this up, the sword spirit and sword heart would surely be destroyed soon. Also, because of the Divine Sword Ancient Contract, she too would not have a good end. Thinking about this, Ling Chuxi forcefully raised her True Essence and charged at the man again.
“So eager to throw your life away!” With a sneer, the man raised the long blade above his head and slashed it down fiercely.
The wind created by the blade roared with a dense murderous intent. Mysterious patterns suddenly appeared on the body of the blade, and a curtain of crimson light enveloped it.
When the wind from the deadly blade reached her, Ling Chuxi could almost smell the thick stench of blood. When sword and blade clashed, Ling Chuxi’s whole body trembled. A strange suction came from the blood-colored demonic blade, and the Luo Chen sword became firmly stuck to it. To Ling Chuxi’s shock, the Qi of True Essence in her body actually started to flow out through the Luo Chen sword. Besides absorbing spiritual energy, the opponent’s blade could also absorb the Qi of True Essence!
In a moment of urgency, Ling Chuxi tried her best to pull back the sword, but even her five fingers seemed to be firmly stuck to the hilt. She couldn’t let go! Ling Chuxi had never heard of such a strange martial method before, and in her panic, could not think of any way to deal with it.
Qi of True Essence gushed out of her body quickly, and she started to feel tired and weak. What kind of martial method was this?!
“A mere peasant actually dares to fight my Gongxi clan?!” Rage flashed in the man’s eyes and he snarled, “Since you are determined to die, I shall fulfill your wish. Before you die, remember my name—Gongxi Kuangdao(1)!” After that, the man drew his blade back.
That strange suction finally disappeared, freeing Ling Chuxi’s hand, but her whole body felt emptied out. Her feet felt like they were floating, and she almost had no strength to even stand. All she saw was Gongxi Kuangdao raising the long blade once again and slashing it at her head. Ling Chuxi was covered in a thick blood-colored fog, and facing such an attack, Ling Chuxi had no power to resist.
The dark and gloomy blood-colored mist swirled like waves, emitting a sharp howl that sounded like the cry of thousands of innocent souls. It could give anyone goosebumps.
A small flame-like figure suddenly appeared in the corner of Ling Chuxi’s vision, heading towards Gongxi Kuangdao.
“Little Red!” Although it was but a fiery red shadow, Ling Chuxi could still see its beautiful and petite figure. It was definitely Little Red.
‘Why did he follow me?’ Ling Chuxi wondered, surprised and doubtful. However, she didn’t have time to think about it. Although Little Red was a monster beast, she knew that it was no match for Gongxi Kuangdao. Panicked, she cried out, “No, go back! Don’t come here.”
However, Little Red acted as if it didn’t hear her and rushed towards Gongxi Kuangdao at an even faster speed.
Earlier, when Gongxi Kuangdao had appeared, Zhen Ye had been hesitating. Seeing that Little White did not take action, he had also restrained himself. He was facing a dilemma anyway, his ‘hatred’ for Ling Chuxi battling with his desire to see her unharmed.
(1) Gongxi is a family name which was can be translated to ‘Western Palace’. Kuangdao actually means ‘crazy blade’.
