Chapter 921 Mutually Destructive Tactic

“Hellhounds! These damned things! Why did she summon them out again?!”

“Why are we so unlucky this time? Why couldn’t they have been chickens, pigs, or sheep?”

“Oh, My God! She actually summoned four at once…”

Seeing that the Little Witch had summoned four Hellhounds at one time, Xiao Yulong and all the students around him exclaimed in dismay.

Having fought with Hellhounds in succession in recent days, they were very familiar with this kind of demonic beast. The Hellhound was ranked the top among the sixth-level demonic beasts. One Hellhound was equivalent to a master at the final stage of the Voiding Realm.

Although there were many people on You Wanjian’s side, You Wanjian had to deal with Murong Jinghong. Among the remaining ten people, the highest cultivation was the late stage of the Voiding Realm. In a one-on-one fight, they were no match for these Hellhounds.

Even if the ten of them worked together, they were still at a disadvantage based on their overall strength.

Right now, the Little Witch was no longer as mischievous as before. Her expression was incredibly serious. Her eyes contained severe killing intent.

Qin Haodong was injured because he tried to save her but these people wanted to kill her little brother, which was unacceptable to her in any case.

“Bite them to death for me!”

Under the Little Witch’s order, the four Hellhounds’ eyes flickered with blood-red viciousness. They howled and threw themselves at Xiao Yulong and the others.

Seeing that his side was at a disadvantage, You Wanjian also knew that it was time to end the battle quickly. He rushed to Murong Jinghong in a flash.

“Those who stand in my way will die!”

He let loose a thunderous roar and thrust his sword at Murong Jinghong’s chest.

“Bastard, scram!”

Murong Jinghong brandished her Jinghong Sword and swung it at his long sword.

You Wanjian held an ordinary long sword in his hand. He did not dare to fight the Jinghong Sword head-on. Thus, he quickly changed his tactic and fought with Murong Jinghong.

His cultivation was already a notch higher than Murong Jinghong’s. Moreover, Murong Jinghong had been slightly injured in the explosion of Spirit just now.

In addition, she had to block You Wanjian’s way all the time. She couldn’t let him hurt Qin Haodong. Her loss was You Wanjian’s gain. Therefore, although she had the help of the Jinghong Sword, she was still at an extreme disadvantage.

After a few rounds of fighting, You Wanjian pierced Murong Jinghong’s arm.

You Wanjian shouted, “Jinghong Fairy, you are no match for me at all. I just want to kill that guy, Qin Haodong. I don’t want to make things difficult for you. Get out of the way!”

Murong Jinghong’s eyes were red. She shouted in a stern voice, “If you want to kill my junior brother, you must do it over my dead body first.”

“You forced me to do this.”

You Wanjian gritted his teeth. His sword skill became mightier. He took out his most powerful skill, the Life-threatening Three Swords.

This was his most powerful sword skill. He didn’t use it at all in daily life.

Murong Jinghong scrambled to dodge the first two attacks. The third thrust plunged deeply into her right chest.

You Wanjian shouted with a crazed look, “Are you going to give up or not?”

Murong Jinghong ignored the wound on her body and shouted firmly, “No! Kill me if you dare!”

“Then go to hell!”

The people around him were being chased by Hellhounds. Qin Haodong could wake up at any time.

You Wanjian no longer cared about anything else. The long sword in his hand turned into a flowing light again and stabbed toward the left of Murong Jinghong’s chest.

This time, Murong Jinghong did not dodge. She raised the Jinghong Sword in her hand and thrust it at You Wanjian at the same time. This was a tactic where neither side gained any advantage.

“Bitch, you’re risking your life for another man.”

Murong Jinghong’s desperate fighting provoked You Wanjian even more. He did not dodge but accelerated his movements. In his opinion, his speed was much faster than Murong Jinghong’s after she was seriously injured.

He would stab her to death before the Jinghong Sword could hurt him.

Seeing that You Wanjian did not dodge, Murong Jinghong’s eyes flashed with excitement.

Just as You Wanjian’s long sword was about to pierce her chest, a silver shield suddenly appeared in her hand. It was the treasure she had just obtained.

This was all an elaborate trap set by Murong Jinghong. She knew that she was no match for You Wanjian in this situation, so after being seriously injured, she used this mutually destructive tactic to deceive the other side.

You Wanjian’s long sword hit the silver shield with a clanging sound. It didn’t work. At this time, the Jinghong Sword had already reached his chest, so it was too late for him to dodge.

“Puff!” Although You Wanjian tried his best to dodge, the Jinghong Sword still pierced his right chest.

“Ah!”

You Wanjian let out a scream. The Jinghong Sword was incomparably sharp. Now it almost pierced through his chest. His injury was even more serious than Murong Jinghong’s. He fell to the ground with a thud.

Seeing that she had succeeded, a hint of joy flashed across Murong Jinghong’s face. Then everything went black as she collapsed onto the ground.

Xiao Yulong was desperately waving the long sword in his hand to block a Hellhound in front of him. When he saw that You Wanjian was seriously injured and couldn’t get up, he panicked. His defense was immediately broken through by the Hellhound.

Seeing three heads with three mouths wide open appear in front of him, he quickly stabbed them with his sword.

Although this sword continuously pierced through two heads of the Hellhound, the third bloody mouth still bit down fiercely on his left arm.

The Hellhound was incredibly vicious. With a cracking sound, its left arm was directly torn off and dripped with blood.

Xiao Yulong immediately let out a blood-curdling scream. As matters stood, he no longer had the courage to continue fighting. He turned around and ran to the fifth floor.

You Wanjian was injured. Xiao Yulong was seriously injured and ran away. When they saw that, the others were immediately distracted and had no fighting power to speak of.

A Hellhound cruelly tore off a piece of flesh from Xue Pan’s chest. With a scream, he followed Xiao Yulong to the fifth floor.

As for the other students, their cultivation levels were even lower. They didn’t even have a chance to escape. In the blink of an eye, they all died under the sharp claws of the Hellhounds.

The Little Witch’s eyes were bloodshot with hatred, and she showed no intention of stopping these Hellhounds.

After all these people were bitten to death, she combatively looked at You Wanjian, who was seriously wounded and lying on the ground.

“You brute, my little brother has saved you so many times but you want to kill him. You must die today!”

You Wanjian struggled desperately. However, he was seriously injured and couldn’t get up from the ground.

Seeing the four Hellhounds eyeing him covetously, he was scared out of his wits. He trembled and said, “Luo Hongying, we are all classmates of the academy. Please don’t kill me…”

“Now you know we are classmates. Why didn’t you say that when you tried to kill my little brother just now?”

After saying that, the Little Witch waved her hand. The four Hellhounds pounced on You Wanjian. They bit into You Wanjian crazily and left a bloody mess.

After a series of screams, You Wanjian fell completely silent.

The Little Witch didn’t even look at him again. She sent the four Hellhounds back to the Gate of Life and then ran quickly to Murong Jinghong.

However, she knew nothing about medicine, so she could only help Murong Jinghong stop the bleeding by locking the acupoints on her chest.

Although they had won, it was just too tragic. Besides herself and Zhao Xingyue, everyone else had fallen to the ground with grave injuries and they were all on the verge of death.

“Little Brother, wake up! Please wake up…”

The Little Witch held Qin Haodong in her arms and shook him desperately. At this moment, three figures appeared at the stairs of the sixth floor.

Zhao Xingyue’s face was already pale because of the battle just now. When she saw the three people, she suddenly became even more nervous.

“Hongying, look! Bad guys are coming!”

The Little Witch looked back and saw He Kaishan, Dong Zhenhai, and Dong Zhenjiang standing at the stairs.

Seeing these people’s unfriendly expressions, she suddenly stood up and shielded Qin Haodong behind her. “What are you doing here?”

After He Kaishan escaped that day, he met the Dong brothers by accident. The three of them came to the pagoda together.

They knew that with their own strength, it was very difficult to reach the top floor of the pagoda. Thus, they secretly followed behind Xiao Yulong and the others, and eventually managed to arrive on the fifth floor.

Just when the three of them didn’t know how to get through the maze, the injured Xiao Yulong and Xue Pan ran out of it.

Seeing that the two of them were seriously injured, He Kaishan and the other two did not know what had happened earlier. However, they decided to take the risk. Therefore, they followed the blood trail and passed through the maze to the sixth floor.

At first, they were very careful. However, when they saw all the wounded people scattered over the ground and Qin Haodong still needing the protection of the Little Witch, they immediately felt relieved.

“Ha… Ha… Ha… Ha…”

Dong Zhenhai laughed wildly. “Qin Haodong, aren’t you very powerful? Aren’t you very formidable? Didn’t you drive us out of the Tortoise Academy? So what? Now you’ve fallen into our hands.”

He Kaishan looked covetously at the Killing Immortal Sword in the Little Witch’s hand. He reached out to take the silver shield dropped by Murong Jinghong, and praised, “Good stuff! Really good stuff!

“I didn’t expect them to find so many good treasures but now these treasures are all ours.”

Dong Zhenhai said proudly, “To arrive early is not so good as to arrive at the most opportune moment. Now we can not only take revenge but also get these treasures. This trip is worth it.”

Dong Zhenjiang looked at Qin Haodong lying on the ground with hatred in his eyes. “Brother, I’ll kill Qin Haodong now.”

The Little Witch held the Killing Immortal Sword in her hand and snapped, “Who dares to touch my little brother?”

He Kaishan was slightly stunned and said, “Aren’t you good at summoning? When did you start to use a sword?”

The Little Witch said furiously, “None of your business!”

He Kaishan glanced at the bloodstains and the people who were seriously injured and lying on the ground. He suddenly realized what was going on.

“I understand now. You have just gone through a great battle. You have already used your summoning skill. For the time being, you will not be able to use it again, right?”

“I just want to use this sword. What’s wrong with that? Is it any of your business?”

The Little Witch had indeed just used her summoning skill. She wouldn’t be able to use it a second time till ten minutes later.

Although she knew that her cultivation at the late stage of the Apotheosis Realm was no match for the three people in front of her, she could only fight to the death in order to protect Qin Haodong.

After confirming his guess was right, He Kaishan smiled proudly. “Jinghong Fairy, the first of the North Academy, can’t move now. Tu Jiaojiao, the second of the South Academy, is also disabled.

“Only the summoner with the weakest cultivation and the good-for-nothing who don’t dare to fight are left. They fought desperately but we gained the treasures. It’s our turn to be lucky!”

Speaking of this, the three of them laughed proudly together.

Only then did the Little Witch realize that there was still Zhao Xingyue, who was at the late stage of the Voiding Realm, behind her. She turned around and shouted, “Sister Xingyue, come and join me. With your cultivation, you can definitely kill these three scums!”

Zhao Xingyue stood beside Qin Haodong and cried nervously, “I… I don’t dare!”

The Little Witch suddenly became anxious. In the past, Zhao Xingyue did not need to do anything with Qin Haodong’s protection but now the situation was urgent. If Zhao Xingyue did not do anything, they would really die.

She screamed, “These three people are only at the middle stage of the Voiding Realm at most. They can’t defeat you at all. Why wouldn’t you dare? Are you really a good-for-nothing?”
