Chapter 19: Na'er: I can't do anything!
"Roar, roar, roar!"
The pack of Swift Wind Demon Wolves rushed forward. The wolf king, the leader, looked at the two humans charging towards them. A flicker of doubt flashed in his dark green eyes, then a murderous intent intensified.
The enemy, instead of fleeing, charged towards them. Let these two become their energy.
"Swoosh!"
Na'er suddenly swung the silver dragon spear in her hand, transforming into a sharp silver beam that instantly pierced the air and pinned the leading Hundred-Year-Old Swift Wind Demon Wolf to the ground.
Immediately, the Hundred-Year-Old Swift Wind Demon Wolf howled twice before exploding into a ball of pure cyan energy, drifting towards Na'er's Hundred-Year-Old Spirit Ring. As Na'er merged with it, the Hundred-Year-Old Spirit Ring took on a faint purple hue.
"Whoosh!"
Jiang Xiu's slender figure swiftly passed by. As he rushed forward, the Shadow King behind him suddenly transformed into a ball of deep dark power, flowing towards Jiang Xiu like a stream of water.
The next moment, Jiang Xiu's purple eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and dark armor condensed across his vital points, emanating a cold, dark energy. It was as if Jiang Xiu were wearing a suit of armor shimmering with sturdy lines and a dark sheen.
This was another ability of the Shadow King's spirit. Not only could it fight independently of Jiang Xiu, but it could also possess other beings like a beast spirit, greatly increasing Jiang Xiu's combat power and defense.
After the Shadow King's possession, Jiang Xiu's speed skyrocketed again. Under the incredulous gaze of the leading wolf king, he leaped into the air and suddenly plunged into the orderly pack.
"Boom! Boom!"
Two explosive roars echoed, and two Swift Wind Demon Wolves, each boasting nearly a century of cultivation, were swiftly slain by Jiang Xiu's fists, transforming into two balls of pure energy. Jiang Xiu's intrusion instantly slowed the entire pack, slightly disrupting their rapid forward formation. Some were stopped by Jiang Xiu, while others continued their assault on Na'er.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
Upon seeing Jiang Xiu, the two century-old Swift Wind Demon Wolves within the pack glowed with a faint azure light. Their fur darkened, their claws shimmered with a faint glow, their wind attributes pulsing as they charged towards Jiang Xiu.
"You don't understand the difference in strength, yet you dare to charge me? Take my Shadow Fist!"
Jiang Xiu gazed at the surrounding wolves, his bloodshot eyes unfazed. He stepped forward with his left foot, his fists imbued with ultimate dark power, and instantly blasted the two wolves.
"Don't even think about surpassing me! Submit obediently to King Na'er."
Watching Jiang Xiu, who was continuously slaying the Swift Wind Demon Wolves, a glint of silver light flashed in Na'er's beautiful eyes. She raised her bare hand, instantly retracting her Silver Dragon Spear as if it were a part of her body.
"First Soul Skill: Dragon Battle in the Wild!"
Na'er's spirit ring shone brightly, and an illusory silver dragon snaked up from the Silver Dragon Spear in her hand, its slightly ferocious head clinging to the sharp tip.
"Yin!"
Following a resounding dragon roar, a flash of cold light arrived first, and the silver dragon spear instantly swept out. Silver-white spear flowers bloomed in the air, like a tide, attacking the wolf pack layer by layer.
The wolves were injured by the tide of silver-white spear flowers, and died if they touched them. For a moment, the light of spears and fists continued to flash among the wolves, and their wails were mixed with blood.
The Wind Demon Wolf Pack also split into two teams, constantly encircling Na'er and Jiang Xiu, but the situation on the field was clearly one-sided.
"You are still young and energetic, you are getting old."
In the circular metal room, Muye looked at the picture on the soul guide screen and sighed slightly, while also observing Jiang Xiu's every move for the next instruction.
"Yes, we were like this back then, proud and fearless, thinking that if we defeated the enemy in front of us, we could defeat everything."
Reminiscence flashed in Leng Yaozhu's beautiful eyes, and it seemed as if she saw her younger self in Na'er. At that time, she was also a prodigy praised by everyone, until she met that man...
"Isn't it a bit rude of you to say you are old in front of me?"
Han Tianyi, with silver hair, listened to the conversation between the two, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he said with a faint look.
"Ahem... the winner is almost decided."
Muye coughed, pointing to the soul guide screen in front of him to change the subject.
"It seems that Na'er has the upper hand this time."
Leng Yaozhu's red lips curled up, her beautiful eyes gleaming with light as she chuckled.
Even as the three of them were conversing, the pack of Swift Wind Demon Wolves on the field was almost completely destroyed, with only two remaining: one in front of Na'er and one in front of Jiang Xiu.
At this moment, Na'er had killed fifteen and Jiang Xiu had killed fourteen. In Leng Yaozhu's opinion, the balance of victory was firmly tilted towards Na'er.
"Master Leng, we can't jump to conclusions before the last moment."
Muye and Han Tianyi exchanged a meaningful glance.
"Hmm?"
Leng Yaozhu frowned slightly, watching the screen on which Jiang Xiu's first soul ring, which had been unused until now, was now dimly lit.
Inside the primary soul raising platform.
"Jiang Xiu, I'm the boss. No one else can help. Na'er said so!"
Watching the Swift Wolf before Jiang Xiu die, Na'er placed her silver dragon spear across its neck, her rosy lips curled up.
Jiang Xiu had killed fifteen, and she had also killed fifteen, but this last one was right before her, a full five meters away. Victory was within her grasp.
"Huh? What are you laughing at?"
Na'er observed Jiang Xiu's unhurried demeanor, a sense of foreboding washed over her. She instantly swung her silver dragon spear towards the Swift Wolf's neck.
Delay meant trouble, so Na'er chose to strike immediately. No matter what Jiang Xiu did, as long as she killed this Swift Wolf, she'd win the bet!
"Na'er, your spear is still too slow."
Jiang Xiu's lips curled slightly. He raised his left palm slightly, grasped it in the air, and his first spirit ring suddenly illuminated. Two blood-red quarter-hours instantly condensed beside him.
"Time stop!"
As Jiang Xiu's voice fell, the hands of the quarter-hour clock abruptly stopped, and a blood-red ripple rippled out, instantly enveloping Na'er.
"Oh no! It's a time-based soul skill!"
Na'er's eyes flashed with surprise, and she froze in place. A leaf, falling from the fighting, stopped right before her eyes.
"Death Spear, move!"
Na'er screamed frantically in her heart, her soul power circulating, but the Silver Dragon Spear in her hand remained motionless.
With her current strength as a thirteenth-level soul master, she couldn't break the effect of time stop. And with three powerful masters watching from outside, she could only watch helplessly as the Wind Wolf approached.
"Whoosh!"
At that moment, Jiang Xiu moved, leaping five meters to the wolf's neck. His slender, powerful left hand deflected the Silver Dragon Spear, and his right elbow raised, striking the Wind Wolf's neck.
"No!"
Na'er's beautiful eyes trembled, and she prayed in her heart.
Now she could only watch Jiang Xiu, unable to do anything!
