Chapter 2176: Just Tough

Ye Geer's combat style pushed the advantages of a Holy Descendant to the limit. He was essentially different from Lirin. When Lirin had his torso severed by Su Xiao, he thought about restoring his body immediately.

And after Ye Geer had his head chopped off, he used the visual difference of his flying head to stare at Su Xiao, and chose to repel Su Xiao first, then reattach his head.

*Crack, crack... *

Ye Geer moved his neck, the corners of his mouth curling up uncontrollably. For him, only by fighting with strong opponents could he feel that he was still alive.

"Northern cavalry discovered five kilometers away!"

Baha shouted from high altitude. Hearing this news, Su Xiao frowned. It was hard to encounter a Sword Art Grandmaster, and he originally wanted to have a one-on-one with the other party. After all, such opportunities were rare and could temper his blade art.

But who knew that the Northern cavalry would arrive near Yalansi City so quickly? Looking at this trend, it wouldn't be long before they launched a full-scale attack on Yalansi City.

"Amu, Xiang Bubu, Baha."

As soon as Su Xiao finished speaking, Amu, who had been waiting, rushed toward Ye Geer.

Looking at Amu's heavy footsteps, Ye Geer casually slashed a few swords and turned his gaze to Su Xiao.

*Puchi, puchi, puchi... *

Blood splashed on Amu, but it didn't care at all, continuing to rush toward Ye Geer.

Ye Geer's eyes were clearly surprised. He hadn't cared about this tauren at all just now. Now it seemed that this was also one of his opponents.

The sound of breaking wind suddenly attacked from the back of Ye Geer's neck. It was Baha using its spatial ability to suddenly appear behind Ye Geer.

Just as Baha's claws were about to touch the back of Ye Geer's neck, a sense of crisis that made its feathers stand up suddenly appeared.

*Clang! *

Su Xiao suddenly appeared beside Ye Geer, blocking the sword slashing at Baha's neck.

Baha suddenly disappeared again. This time, its claws sank into the back of Ye Geer's neck. While injecting energy poison into the enemy's body, the other claw reached toward Ye Geer's throat, preparing to break his throat.

Because the back of his neck was attacked, Ye Geer's movement paused significantly. But he leaned down, and after a brief accumulation of power, he leaped up, hard-resisting Su Xiao's slash, and forcibly thrust toward Amu.

Ye Geer chose the one that was the most resistant to beating. He actually didn't want to, but Su Xiao was a Blade Art Grandmaster, and as for that magic eagle, its spatial ability wasn't just for show.

*Puchi! *

The long sword directly pierced through Amu's chest, and two cold breaths sprayed from Amu's nostrils. Its large hand grabbed toward Ye Geer's shoulder.

Amu's combat tenet was: you are strong as you are, but you definitely aren't as tough as me, so that's it.

Just as Amu's large hand reached out, Ye Geer turned to the side. But at this moment, Baha appeared above his head, its claws grabbing toward his skull.

With a *swish*, the long blade in Su Xiao's hand pierced through Ye Geer's neck, and the long blade turned horizontally, blocking Ye Geer from turning to the side.

With a *pop*, Amu's large hand grabbed onto Ye Geer's shoulder, ice spread, and Amu's tightly gripped hand froze onto Ye Geer.

Su Xiao and Baha retreated at the same time. Amu roared and lifted the not-so-tall Ye Geer, throwing him toward the ground.

*Boom! *

The Magnetic Storm Hunter exploded, and Ye Geer felt a sharp pain from his spine. Real damage was the nemesis of Holy Descendants.

Amu staggered back a few steps, covered in shrapnel, but its left hand lifted, and an ice war hammer condensed.

Just as Ye Geer was about to swing his sword to chop off Amu's head, Su Xiao had already stepped forward, performing an upward slash.

With this slash, Ye Geer's right arm flew off, still gripping the war sword. Baha in the air dived rapidly, grabbed Ye Geer's severed arm, and then rapidly increased its altitude.

Sword Art Grandmaster Ye Geer was beaten into a daze. He could still adapt when fighting Su Xiao one-on-one, but after being besieged, he found that he had no chance to attack at all.

Baha's spatial ability was used to interrupt the enemy's attacks, thereby covering Amu's advance.

Amu would block all of Ye Geer's slashes, and Su Xiao would make it impossible for Ye Geer to fight back.

Immortal Holy Descendant · Sword Art Grandmaster was unsolvable? No, against an enemy like him who had no large-scale lethality and a normal body size, the siege of Su Xiao's team was even more unsolvable.

Space, tank, assassination, trap setting, third-rate healing, and then Su Xiao's blade art as the main force—it would be strange if Ye Geer had the power to counterattack.

After an intensely fierce battle lasting five minutes, Ye Geer lay on the ground motionless. By the end, he didn't even have a sword, so how could he not lose?

Ye Geer couldn't even guarantee a win in a one-on-one with Su Xiao, let alone facing the tacit cooperation of Su Xiao, Amu, Baha, and Xiang Bubu Wang.

Ye Geer lay on the ground very calmly. He didn't want to leave any last words; losing was losing.

Su Xiao came to Ye Geer's side, pierced through Ye Geer's chest with a blade, and slashed downward.

Su Xiao's hand reached into Ye Geer's chest, and with a *puchi*, he pulled out a heart. The luster in Ye Geer's eyes faded.

A gemstone floated out from Ye Geer's head, and Su Xiao clamped it with two fingers.

【You have obtained the Soul-Severing Shadow Stone.】

The fourth Soul-Severing Shadow Stone was in hand. Only one last one was missing, and Su Xiao would have a chance to obtain the Soul-Severing Shadow ability.

【Hint: You have killed the Holy Descendant King · Ye Geer.】

【You have obtained Ye Geer's Heart (Special item of this world)】

【You have obtained 20.3% of the World's Source.】

【You have obtained Psionic Liquid (1300g), this is the constant reward for killing the Holy Descendant King · Ye Geer.】

【Main Quest · Fourth Ring (Completed).】

【You have obtained a Holy Spirit-grade treasure chest.】

【You have activated Main Quest · Fifth Ring (Total seven rings).】

【Main Quest: Abyss (Fifth Ring).】

Difficulty level: lv. 57

Quest information: Arrive at the bottom of the Abyss and search for the "Space-Time Hub device" in the God's Gift Hall. If found and the "Space-Time Hub device" is destroyed, Main Quest 1 will be completed immediately.

Hint: The Abyss is extremely dangerous, the Hunter needs to ensure sufficient Psionic Liquid.

Hint: Before entering the Abyss, you need to hand Ye Geer's heart to the "Person who is the Beginning of Everything." This action can avoid conflict with the "Person who is the Beginning of Everything" and obtain the other party's help.

Quest duration: 15 natural days.

Quest reward: Determined by quest completion.

Quest penalty: Forced execution.

Closing the quest list, Su Xiao had one more thing to confirm before leaving the Sera Empire: whether the Space-Time Hub device was in Ye Geer's family. Just now, in his engagement with Ye Geer, he didn't find any traces of Paradise enhancement in the other party's combat style, but this wasn't safe.

Successfully solving Ye Geer, now even if he turned the other party's residence upside down, it wouldn't cause a chain reaction.

Su Xiao stretched his hand forward, his palm aimed at Ye Geer lying on the ground.

The Soul Eater talent activated, and two light orbs floated out from Ye Geer's chest, held in Su Xiao's hand. This was soul memory.

【You have obtained "Cultivation Memory · Extreme Cold Land (Incomplete)".】

【You have obtained "Technique Memory · Sword Art Grandmaster (Incomplete)".】

【Hint: The Hunter can choose one to strip.】

Su Xiao pondered for a moment and decided to choose Technique Memory · Sword Art Grandmaster. Although sword art and blade art were very different, some aspects were still worth learning from.

Three blue energy threads surged in Su Xiao's hand. These energy threads were like hair, two wrapped around the light orb in his hand, and the last one pierced into it.

There was a boom in Su Xiao's brain, and his eyes lost focus, but the next moment, his vision recovered.

"What kind of cultivation method is this."

Colorless mist drifted from Su Xiao's hand. Just by initially accepting the Technique Memory · Sword Art Grandmaster, he found that it didn't suit him. Ye Geer's cultivation method was too peculiar. The reason this guy often slept wasn't because of laziness, but because this guy had a talent that allowed him to perceive himself in his dreams, and then cultivate sword art in his dreams.

Can you become stronger by sleeping? That's right, Ye Geer did exactly that. Su Xiao didn't think much of this method; he was more willing to slash blade by blade himself to grope out techniques.

Just as Su Xiao was preparing to return to Yalansi City, Baha dived down from above.

"Boss, I think I saw Xi. Is she silver-haired? Ah, ptooey, silver-haired?"

"Yes."

"Xi is followed by three people, two men and one woman. Her female subordinate, er~ how to describe it, very... joyful? Anyway, she looks a bit mentally retarded..."

"Hmm?"

Su Xiao looked at Baha in confusion. Baha expressed helplessness; this was what it saw.

The information provided by Baha led Su Xiao to judge that Xi should have joined the Northern Alliance and was now attacking Yalansi City together with the Northern Alliance. ===== CHAPTER 2177 =====
