Chapter 227: The Death of the Three Beasts (Part II)

"Ho, how is that possible?" Sibiya stared at Daidas, who had fallen to the ground, with a look of shock on her face.

One must know that she, along with her guards, had not even managed to survive a single move at the hands of Daidas, yet this girl before her eyes, who looked even younger than she was, had actually killed one of the three enemies in a joint attack with just a single move; what kind of strength was this?

"Such powerful strength, this feeling, I have only experienced it from Lady Esdeath!" Nyau, standing to the side, spoke with a look of shock.

Liver's expression was also grave. His Teigu was one that manipulated water currents, and its ability was inherently limited when on land. Moreover, he clearly remembered that just a moment ago, the opponent's attack had evaporated all the water pillars he had unleashed in one go; in other words, Luo Yexi's ability, in certain respects, countered his own.

"This time the trouble is a bit big, really, why did we have to provoke such an expert!" Liver smiled bitterly in his heart, but he was now in a position where he could neither advance nor retreat, and had no choice but to fight.

Nyau, standing to the side, also had his expression shift slightly. He had never expected that a single sentence of his would attract such a powerful opponent. As one of the Three Beasts, Daidas had been fighting alongside them for quite a long time, and he understood his combat power; now that the opponent could kill Daidas in a second, it meant she could also kill him in a second.

"There is no other way, I can only fight with all my might!" Liver began to recklessly drive his Teigu, gathering the liquid from the surroundings. He had no other choice now; if he did not fight to the death, he would surely die here. General Esdeath's mission had not yet been completed, so how could he die!

"Hah! Abyssal Snake!" Following Liver's low shout, the water currents around him instantly condensed into a thick water snake, biting toward Luo Yexi.

Behind him, Nyau also quietly changed his melody. As soon as this melody emerged, Luo Yexi instantly felt some kind of power invade her body, making her body feel a few degrees heavier.

"That's somewhat interesting!" The corners of Luo Yexi's mouth suddenly hooked into a smile. She grabbed at the Void with her five fingers, and a giant palm condensed from golden-red flames appeared out of thin air, grabbing the water snake. The water snake let out a silent roar before being evaporated into water vapor filling the sky.

Liver's expression became very ugly. If it were any other method of attack, it would be one thing, but this woman happened to use fire, and every attack could turn the water he controlled into water vapor; this was invisibly weakening his power. Moreover, it was truly unbelievable that the opponent could unleash such powerful strength while under Nyau's suppression.

"Nyau, use that move!" Liver suddenly spoke.

"Yes!" Nyau replied, and a strange tune emanated from his flute.

The moment she heard this tune, Luo Yexi could not help but let out a muffled groan, feeling as if her power had been sealed by some strange force in an instant. Nyau stopped playing, and the Teigu in his hands lost its luster, as if it had lost its effect.

He said triumphantly to Luo Yexi: "This move is a hidden technique I researched after experiencing a long period of tempering—Soul-Destroying Melody. Although using it will make my Teigu unusable for half a month, it can seal the vast majority of an enemy's power, and can even seal Teigu!"

"I was careless!" Feeling the sealed power within her body, Luo Yexi let out a light sigh. "However, if you think such an ability can trap me, you are truly too naive!"

Luo Yexi fully drove the Nine Yang Power within her body. The Nine Yang Power was precisely the nemesis of this cold, yin-based force, and it instantly broke through the majority of that sealing power.

"Not good, this person is strange!" Looking at Luo Yexi's state, a sense of foreboding rose in Liver's heart. "Water Dragon Heaven Conquest!"

Liver mobilized all the liquid he could possibly command. Under such a heavy burden, blood began to overflow from his seven orifices. Around his body, dozens of murky-colored water dragons appeared, roaring as they lunged toward Luo Yexi's direction.

Gazing at the dozens of water dragons lunging at her, a hint of gravity appeared in Luo Yexi's eyes. Now that her power was significantly sealed, it was still somewhat difficult to deal with these dozens of water dragons.

"Three Suns Scorching Clouds!" Luo Yexi gave a low shout, and three golden-red Light Balls instantly condensed around her. With her internal power locked, Luo Yexi could not unleash her full strength, but the technique she used in her hands was still extraordinary.

The three golden-red Light Balls roared as they collided with the numerous water dragons. Large amounts of water vapor rose from the water dragons, subsequently turning into white mist that obscured the entire battlefield.

A gust of wind swept out from the battlefield, dispersing all the white mist. At the center of the battlefield, Luo Yexi reached out to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth. Although her move had wiped out all the water dragons Liver had released, she herself had suffered no small amount of backlash damage. Looking at Liver, he was now half-kneeling on the ground, gasping for breath; it appeared he had also suffered heavy injuries.

"As expected of General Liver, the most powerful among the Three Beasts, but today, you end here!" Luo Yexi calmed the churning blood in her body, then condensed Nine Yang Power onto her fingers, using her fingers as a sword to sweep out a sharp Sword Qi.

Liver was agile; even while heavily injured, his body flashed violently, actually dodging Luo Yexi's Sword Qi in an instant. But before he could heave a sigh of relief, he heard a scream from behind him. Liver turned his head in disbelief, only to see a large hole in Nyau's chest, with blood spraying out like a fountain. It turned out that after Luo Yexi's Sword Qi swept past Liver, it made a sudden turn, killing the unprepared Nyau in a single second. For Luo Yexi, it was naturally to first finish off this person who could interfere with her battle but did not possess high strength.

Seeing his last teammate fall, Liver also took a deep breath. He could now be certain that the person he had provoked was definitely a powerhouse on the same level as his master, Esdeath.

"Blood Needle Kill!" Liver quietly took a drug that could enhance his power, then suddenly unleashed his hidden technique. Countless drops of blood formed needles around him, instantly tearing through the air and shooting toward Luo Yexi's direction like a rainstorm.

"As expected, this ability has also been strengthened!" Luo Yexi stepped forward, and a powerful Nine Yang Power instantly formed a continuously rotating Protective Qi Shield around her.

Luo Yexi did not want to test how fast her extreme sword speed was at this moment; after all, she did not know what kind of toxins were mixed into this blood, and it would be bad if she capsized in the gutter like before.

"Ding, ding, ding." The needles formed from blood bombarded Luo Yexi's Protective Qi Shield, erupting in a series of sparks before being reduced to nothing by the powerful heat on the Protective Qi Shield.

Seeing that even his final ultimate technique could do nothing to Luo Yexi, Liver smiled bitterly and then slowly fell to the ground. Just a moment ago, he had used almost all the blood in his body as a weapon to shoot out, intending to perish together, but now it seemed that was completely impossible!

Having dealt with the last person, Luo Yexi let out a long breath, then turned and walked toward Sibiya. Seeing the large pool of blood under Sibiya, Luo Yexi frowned slightly, then reached out and tapped a few times at her wound. Under Sibiya's surprised gaze, her wound actually stopped bleeding. Afterward, Luo Yexi tore a few strips of cloth directly from Sibiya's clothes and bandaged her wound.

"Sister, you are so amazing!" Sibiya looked at Luo Yexi with a face full of admiration. "Can you tell me how you cultivated to become so powerful?"

"The perpetrators have all perished; I think you should have a way to return to the Imperial Capital. I will be leaving first!" Luo Yexi did not want to answer this question and only said indifferently. "I have other matters, I'm leaving!"

After speaking, Luo Yexi grabbed the Danger Beast that had fallen by the roadside, incidentally collected the Teigu of the Three Beasts, and then, under Sibiya's admiring gaze, slowly disappeared at the end of the road.
