Chapter 266: Shocking Moon! Silent Night!

"Whoosh—"

The endless branches retracted rapidly, leaving only two branches glowing with an emerald light still wrapped around the two of them.

It is worth mentioning that although the Biwu branch was wrapped around Lu Ran's waist, the branch was pressed against Lu Ran's leg and rested on the ground to avoid being bitten off by the vicious dog.

Honestly, the Vicious Dog clan really isn't very smart.

If it had just bitten the branches and then unleashed a barrage of taunts at Lu Ran, it would have been fully capable of luring Lu Ran away!

Of course, if the Vicious Dog had that kind of tactical literacy, it wouldn't be wasting time in the plaza.

With the time it spent fighting Captain Ge Bin Bin and Liu Yunlan, it could have eaten several buffets in the shelter.

The massive Biwu tree returned to the appearance a parasol tree should have, standing tall in the center of the plaza.

With the dense branches gone from the field, the wariness in the Vicious Dog's heart indeed faded slightly.

And because the rows of vicious teeth had failed to crush Lu Ran, the Vicious Dog finally entered the fray itself!

"Woof!"

It appeared directly behind and to the left of Lu Ran, opening its blood-red maw.

"Sss—"

Lu Ran's body tensed, his Immortal Hooves suddenly flared, and while escaping to the front right, he turned and slashed down with his blade.

At the same time, Captain Ge Bin Bin, wielding a pair of daggers, stabbed fiercely toward the Vicious Dog's body.

A crisp "Crack!" sounded.

The Vicious Dog's drooling mouth failed to crush the human, instead biting into a mouthful of immortal mist.

Captain Ge Bin Bin's speed was incredibly fast; his daggers had already pierced the Vicious Dog's skin.

Although very shallow, the blade tips had truly pierced in!

Even though the Vicious Dog blinked away at the first opportunity and Captain Ge Bin Bin failed to deal a heavy blow, he was still overjoyed!

As a Jiang Jing powerhouse and a disciple of the Nu Sha, Captain Ge Bin Bin's temperament was relatively steady.

Yet at this moment, his joy and anger were visible on his face.

It is hard for ordinary people to understand what this strike meant for this battle.

Before Lu Ran arrived, Captain Ge Bin Bin had pushed his Divine Technique, Spirit-Ghost Entanglement, to the limit and exhausted all his means, yet he hadn't been able to injure the Vicious Dog!

One must know, this was with Liu Yunlan providing support and under the lashing of endless branches!

This Vicious Dog, standing at the very peak of the Jiang Jing, was truly too terrifying.

The River-grade Evil Technique, Evil Consciousness, allowed the Vicious Dog to have a thorough grasp of battlefield information.

The River-grade Evil Technique, Evil Agility, made the Vicious Dog extremely flexible and agile to the point of despair!

But Lu Ran's arrival completely changed all of this.

The effect was immediate!

This Xiang Xiang Xianyang believer's taunting technique was excessively strong.

Other taunting techniques, such as the Vicious Dog's Evil Technique, Vicious Bark, would disturb people's minds until they couldn't bear it, only then blinding their judgment.

But Lu Ran's Sound of Compassion...

Captain Ge Bin Bin could feel that Lu Ran wasn't taunting in the true sense.

He was amplifying the various desires for hunting, harming, and abusing within the hearts of humans and demons!

The underlying logic of this technique's activation was fundamentally different from ordinary taunting techniques!

It was simply incomprehensible!

It was as if it were born specifically to control demons.

"Woof!" After being injured, the Vicious Dog's attention shifted instantly, and it appeared behind Captain Ge Bin Bin, biting down again.

"Swish~"

Captain Ge Bin Bin decisively turned back to retreat, wielding his daggers to block.

What Captain Ge Bin Bin didn't expect was that the Rosy Cloud Blade had already arrived, its tip stabbing straight toward his front.

Captain Ge Bin Bin was truly surprised!

This child...

What reflexes, what judgment!

Killing the enemy and saving a person, two birds with one stone!

Lu Ran's attack wasn't a direct stab at the Vicious Dog's current position, but a prediction of where the Vicious Dog was about to appear!

As long as the Vicious Dog continued forward to bite Captain Ge Bin Bin's arms, the blade tip would pierce its dog eyes.

Only if the Vicious Dog abandoned its offensive would the Rosy Cloud Blade miss.

The Evil Technique, Evil Consciousness, and physical instinct saved the Vicious Dog's life!

It stopped its movement abruptly, still keeping its mouth open, and retracted its head.

The Vicious Dog didn't choose to teleport, seemingly waiting for this fatal blow to pass before continuing forward to bite the enemy.

"Turn!" Lu Ran waved his right hand fiercely.

You think you can dodge by being a turtle?

Watch closely, I'm holding a Divine Weapon!

The kind that moves with the heart!

The Rosy Cloud Blade swept across violently.

"Sss!"

The blade sliced slightly across the side of the dog's mouth. The Vicious Dog felt the pain, its energy churning, clearly intending to blink away.

"Good!" Captain Ge Bin Bin let out a loud shout.

Since Lu Ran's appearance, this little teammate's score in Captain Ge Bin Bin's mind had been skyrocketing!

The two had never fought side-by-side, but Captain Ge Bin Bin had heard Lu Ran's stories more or less.

A while ago, when Deng Yuxiang moved into the Wu Lie Building, she had also mentioned her good younger brother.

Now, seeing it with his own eyes...

It's no wonder Deng Yuxiang praised him so highly.

A true Great Xia prodigy!

"Baa~~~"

The sheep's bleat sounded at the perfect moment.

The Vicious Dog teleported!

Covered in wounds, it left behind a trail of bright red blood.

But the Vicious Dog didn't blink away; instead, driven by instinct, it flashed directly to Lu Ran's side!

Lu Ran immediately utilized his Immortal Hooves, shifting horizontally to the side while delivering a horizontal slash with the Cool Night Sword in his left hand.

"Clang!"

As expected of a Jiang Jing Vicious Dog, its reflexes were truly fast!

It actually bit down on the Cool Night Sword, seemingly intending to crush the weapon.

Thanks to the Cool Night Sword being a Divine Weapon, otherwise, it might have actually succeeded.

Even more terrifying, while biting the Cool Night Sword, the Vicious Dog took the opportunity to lash out with a Vicious Tooth!

Lu Ran's pupils shrank slightly!

His reflexes were also very fast; after all, Lu Ran also had Evil Consciousness and Evil Agility.

This battle appeared to be a fierce confrontation between a human and a dog.

In reality, it was a civil war between skinny dogs.

Lu Ran didn't abandon his sword to retreat; instead, he gripped the hilt tightly, his Immortal Hooves flared, and he stabbed forward fiercely!

"Sss—"

Lu Ran stabbed forward with his sword, his figure weaving through, while two rows of dog teeth snapped shut fiercely behind him.

The Vicious Dog was biting the Cool Night Sword tightly, being pushed by Lu Ran as it slid backward.

Along the way, bloodstains were left on the plaza's stone tiles.

These bloodstains undoubtedly represented that the Vicious Dog's physical state was continuously declining.

The longer the battle dragged on, the more it bled, and the closer it got to death!

Liu Yunlan watched this scene in a daze, finding it unbelievable.

What kind of reflexes were these?

This young man, does he not get hit by skills?

Superb speed, maxed-out evasion?!

Hmm... I did hear that an incredible prodigy had emerged in Yu Xiang City, someone who even dared to break into the Thread-Pulling Shadow clan's Thread-Pulling Garment.

The Xiang Xiang Xianyang Divine Technique, Immortal Hooves, is truly an eye-opener.

It's a pity that the Xiang Xiang Xianyang believers in this world all use such divine skills to run away and avoid battle.

If only they could all be like Lu Ran, fighting in and out of the battlefield, how good would that be?

"Grrr," the Vicious Dog bit the Cool Night Sword tightly, emitting a chilling guttural sound.

This massive, ferocious dog face, appearing on the screens of thousands of households, scared people quite a bit!

"Baa!" Lu Ran, while attracting the Vicious Dog's focus, held the Silent Zhan Ye Dao in his right hand and slashed forward fiercely.

He felt a blur before his eyes, and the Vicious Dog vanished abruptly.

Lu Ran didn't dare to delay, a large amount of immortal mist erupted from his feet, and his speed increased significantly.

"Crack!"

From the rear right came the sound of dog teeth snapping shut fiercely.

Thanks to the Ghost Moon Mountain training, Lu Ran had a deeper understanding of speed.

No matter which direction the Vicious Dog appeared from, as long as Lu Ran accelerated further, he would definitely be able to escape.

If the Vicious Dog appeared directly in front, Lu Ran, relying on this sudden acceleration, might even be able to stab the Vicious Dog to death with one sword!

"Woof!!" Seeing that one strike failed, the Vicious Dog immediately sought out Lu Ran's direction.

But in the next second, it heard a sound of air being pierced.

"Swish~"

The Jiang Jing Vicious Dog blinked one meter backward, letting a phantom dagger fly past its eyes.

Captain Ge Bin Bin charged forward with long strides, brandishing his daggers repeatedly.

From the pair of weapons, phantom daggers flew out, striking straight at the vicious dog.

Nu Sha Divine Technique: Blade of Calamity!

"Woof!" The vicious dog finally shifted its attention, turning its head to look at the incoming Captain Ge Bin Bin.

With a flicker, it dodged the incoming daggers, leaving a trail of blood on the ground, and reappeared behind Captain Ge Bin Bin.

Captain Ge Bin Bin was already accustomed to the vicious dog's patterns, and relying on his own reflexes, he turned around to strike back.

"Baa~~~"

The sheep's bleat rang out at the perfect moment, pulling at the vicious dog's mind.

Liu Yunlan and Captain Ge Bin Bin, both of the River Estuary Realm, could easily shake off the influence.

But for the vicious dog, this single bleat was practically the death of it!

The vicious dog turned its head uncontrollably, and the dog mouth that should have been biting the enemy also shifted its aim.

"Sshh!"

The blade edge slashed across the dog's eye!

"Woo~ Wooooo~"

The vicious dog let out a shrill, miserable howl.

The moment it was wounded, it teleported away.

However, how fast was Captain Ge Bin Bin's speed? How fierce was his offensive?

The vicious dog's right eye was sliced wide open!

That dog eye no longer had any scarlet light, only blood flowing out.

By now, the vicious dog was not only covered in blood holes but had also become a blind dog.

With this flicker, it finally returned to the familiar high altitude, escaping the battlefield.

Captain Ge Bin Bin gripped his daggers tight, his expression grim, looking at the figure flickering rapidly in the night sky: "Lu Ran!"

The Vicious Dog clan indeed had low intelligence and an extreme craving for human flesh.

But a vicious dog that has suffered heavy wounds will also run away!

If it were before, Captain Ge Bin Bin would truly be worried about the vicious dog fleeing.

If such a terrifying creature set its mind on running, who could catch it?

How many more humans would a River Estuary Realm vicious dog kill while on the run?

The consequences were simply unthinkable!

But now?

With Lu Ran, this fragrant, crying little lamb, which demon could possibly get away?

This was also the fundamental reason why Lu Ran was able to pass the application to join the battle group!

"Baa~~~"

Without needing Captain Ge Bin Bin to remind him, Lu Ran's bleating had never stopped!

Wounded to this extent, the vicious dog still flickered into the night sky and did not disappear just like that.

Lu Ran considered that his Divine Technique, Sound of Sorrow and Panic, had definitely made a great contribution!

The night sky suddenly lit up as an exceptionally thick bolt of lightning streaked across.

Under the illumination of the lightning, Lu Ran's yellow raincoat was particularly conspicuous, fluttering wildly.

He flew back to Captain Ge Bin Bin's side, the sheep's bleat never ceasing:

"Baa~~~"

"Woof! Woof woof! Woof!"

The vicious dog barked frantically, furious!

It had one eyeball slashed open and was enduring intense pain.

Not daring to open its eyes again, it simply closed both, relying on the Evil Technique, Corrupt Mind, to lock onto Lu Ran's position.

The vicious dog was in so much pain it lost its mind, already crazed, and its figure flickered over instantly.

It was precisely at this moment that Captain Ge Bin Bin's eyes widened sharply!

Because

"Rumble!!"

In the night sky, a clap of thunder exploded across the horizon!

The vicious dog, with eyes tightly shut, had pushed its River Estuary Artifact Evil Technique, Corrupt Mind, to the limit, and was also shaken to the core by the violent thunder.

On the ground, a thunderclap rose up from the flat land as well!

Lu Ran held his blade horizontally before him, fairy hooves suddenly rising, flashing past Captain Ge Bin Bin's side.

Ran Sect Blade Art, Second Form: Startled Moon!

After the thick lightning, naturally came the massive sound of thunder!

Whether the vicious dog had deactivated its Evil Technique, Lu Ran was not sure, but he had made full psychological preparations and lowered the grade of his Corrupt Mind.

So now, the question arises!

Which clap of thunder was it that took your dog life?

"Sshh—"

A massive dog head flew high into the air, and the headless dog corpse bled like a fountain.

The brilliant neon lights reflected on Lu Ran's yellow raincoat, accompanying his figure as he flew rapidly, disappearing into the stormy night.

"Quiet."

Lu Ran gripped the Silent Zhan Ye Dao tight, still maintaining the starting stance of Startled Moon, cutting through layers of rain curtains.

"Hum!!"

The Silent Zhan Ye Dao vibrated violently!

The third update is complete!

It's the start of the month, asking you brothers for monthly ticket support!
