Chapter 941: Lingyun Takes Action

At the center of the Witch Barrier, the battle between Tomoe Mami and the Sweets Witch had entered its final stage.

Tomoe Mami's Ribbons converged, transforming into a massive cannon in her hands. Controlling the cannon before her, Tomoe Mami launched a lethal strike at the Sweets Witch, who was pinned in mid-air by the Ribbons.

"Tiro Finale!"

The massive Light Cannon instantly pierced through the Sweets Witch's body, blasting a huge hole right through her. Subsequently, layers upon layers of Ribbons bound the Sweets Witch's body tightly, constricting inward, intending to crush the Sweets Witch into pieces.

Just at this moment, the Sweets Witch's head suddenly swelled up, then the Doll's mouth snapped open, and a caterpillar with a cartoonish human face lunged out from the Doll's mouth, charging toward Tomoe Mami.

Because she had expended a great deal of Magic after unleashing her ultimate technique, Tomoe Mami had not yet reacted when a giant cartoon face appeared before her. Gazing at the cartoon face that had suddenly appeared in front of her, Tomoe Mami was stunned for a moment; perhaps due to excessive Magic consumption, Tomoe Mami's senses were somewhat sluggish, and for a moment, she actually forgot to dodge this bizarre, large face.

The caterpillar head that had reached Tomoe Mami suddenly opened its mouth, its sharp teeth flashing with a cold glint, biting toward Tomoe Mami's head with the momentum of wanting to turn Mami-senpai into a headless senpai.

This sudden situation left both Sayaka and Kaname Madoka stunned; they could already imagine the cruel scene that was about to unfold.

"Boom—"

The Sweets Witch, with her mouth agape, was suddenly struck as if by a heavy blow, sent crashing toward the side of the Witch Barrier; the wind generated by the rapid movement nearly knocked Tomoe Mami to the ground.

"Oh my, it seems I arrived just in time! Little one, what are you trying to do to the students of my school?" A figure suddenly appeared behind Tomoe Mami, steadying her as she was about to fall.

Seeing the person who appeared behind Tomoe Mami, Sayaka and Kaname Madoka's faces simultaneously revealed expressions of astonishment: "Teacher?"

"It looks like we didn't arrive too late!" A burst of footsteps sounded from behind Kaname Madoka; the two turned around and saw Akemi Homura walking toward them.

"Homura!?" Kaname Madoka's voice carried a hint of shock; she remembered that Akemi Homura had been bound by Tomoe Mami's Ribbons, so how could she appear in this place?

"Th, thank you..." Tomoe Mami, having escaped death, said with a stutter.

To tell the truth, when the Sweets Witch's second form suddenly appeared before her, she thought she was a goner. After all, the Sweets Witch was aiming for her head, and her Soul Gem was right on her head; if the Soul Gem were bitten to pieces, she reckoned that even if someone made a wish to Kyubey for her resurrection, it wouldn't be able to save her.

However, when she turned around to look at the person who had saved her life, a trace of astonishment could not help but surface on her face. The person behind her was not a Magical Girl, but a male. And she even recognized this person; he was the new physical education teacher that Kaname Madoka had mentioned to her before.

Males naturally could not become Magical Girls, so how exactly did Lingyun enter the Witch Barrier, and what was the power of that strike just now that sent the Witch flying?

"Alright, you go to the side and rest for now; this kind of dangerous thing is not something a little girl like you who hasn't come of age should be dealing with." Lingyun pushed Tomoe Mami behind him.

To be honest, the Sweets Witch was, in a sense, a natural counter to Tomoe Mami. Tomoe Mami's Ribbon Magic symbolized binding, yet the Sweets Witch happened to possess the ability to molt, which could weaken Tomoe Mami's abilities to the greatest extent. Moreover, its final attack was also extremely ingenious; who could have imagined that after being hit by an ultimate move, the opponent could still transform into a second form to launch a surprise attack? Not to mention that Tomoe Mami, having released her ultimate move, was at a low point in her abilities; facing such a sudden attack, surviving really was an extremely difficult thing.

Just at this moment, the Sweets Witch, who had been kicked away by Lingyun, struggled to crawl up; after her mouth opened, another giant caterpillar lunged out from her mouth, biting toward Lingyun's direction. Most importantly, this caterpillar was in a peak state; the damage Lingyun's kick had caused it just now had completely vanished.

"Molting, huh? That really is a shameless ability!" Lingyun flicked his hand lightly and said. "Leave this guy to me; you step back to the side first."

Looking at Lingyun standing before her, Tomoe Mami hesitated for a moment before finally taking a few steps back. After all, she had consumed a massive amount of Magic in the previous battle, and joining the fight now was not a good choice. Besides, Akemi Homura was also present; although she didn't know Akemi Homura's specific abilities, as a Magical Girl, she surely wouldn't be weak.

"Bang—"

Amidst a violent roar, the Sweets Witch was once again blasted away by Lingyun; Tomoe Mami didn't even see what Lingyun had done.

The Sweets Witch, blasted away by Lingyun, suddenly exploded with countless wounds on her body, looking exceptionally miserable.

"Teacher, so amazing..." Kaname Madoka gazed at Lingyun's back, her eyes somewhat dazed.

Upon discovering that there seemed to be an unusual relationship between Akemi Homura and Lingyun, she had wondered if Lingyun might not be an ordinary person. But she had never expected that one day her Lingyun would appear before her in this manner, blasting away a Witch with an extremely dashing posture and saving Tomoe Mami, who had been facing death.

However, this strike from Lingyun did not cause fatal damage to the Sweets Witch; the Sweets Witch opened her mouth, and another Sweets Witch darted out from her mouth.

"Yo, you've got to be kidding me, to think she has this kind of ability." Looking at the Sweets Witch, who was once again unscathed, Sayaka could not help but groan; facing an enemy like this, what on earth could be done to eliminate her?

"Four Symbols Sword Dragon!" Lingyun snapped his fingers lightly, and majestic Sword Qi surged up from around him, condensing into four divine dragons of different colors that swept toward the Sweets Witch.

Regarding the Sweets Witch, who possessed the molting ability, Lingyun himself was actually quite curious; he wanted to see exactly where the limits of her abilities lay.

Facing the giant dragons condensed from the power of the elements, the Sweets Witch could be said to have no power to fight back. After all, her most powerful abilities were molting and that biting ability capable of easily crushing a Soul Gem, but these two abilities were completely useless against the Four Symbols Sword Dragon. The giant dragons condensed from the Four Symbols Power were immortal bodies; even if the Sweets Witch could bite a chunk off a giant dragon, they, having the replenishment of Lingyun's power, could fully recover in an instant. As for the power of molting, other than allowing the Four Symbols Sword Dragon to kill her a few more times, there was no benefit whatsoever.

"This, this is simply a battle of mythic proportions!" Watching the entities grappling within the Witch Barrier, Sayaka could not help but exclaim in wonder.

Akemi Homura was also somewhat astonished; although she knew Lingyun's strength might be very high, to be powerful to this extent was perhaps a bit too outrageous. The Sweets Witch, capable of killing Tomoe Mami, didn't even have the ability to resist in front of Lingyun.

Kyubey stared fixedly at Lingyun's back, the light in its crimson eyes flickering uncertainly, not knowing what it was thinking.
