Chapter 253: Half-Beasts!

Xing Jiangyi screamed hysterically, but a male half-beast with hair reaching his feet bit down on his lower leg, snapping it clean off with a crunch.

"Ah—"

Xing Jiangyi let out a shrill, bone-chilling scream; the excruciating pain caused him to lose his ability to fight, and he collapsed to the ground.

He never imagined that the people he was begging for help would turn out to be Lu Tianyu and his group.

This scene left Murong Xue, Guo Zhuying, Wan Ziling, and the others deathly pale.

It was too terrifying; these things that were neither human nor beast were actually eating people alive, tearing them apart to consume them.

The blood-drenched scene made them nearly vomit.

Lu Wenbin, meanwhile, vomited outright, his face deathly pale.

Who would have thought that even they, as cultivators, could be this afraid.

They were all so frightened that they had no heart left to strike.

"Cackle, cackle, cackle!"

The snake-tailed woman transformed into a streak of white light and rushed toward Lu Tianyu, "Handsome, hurry and strip off your clothes. My two mouths have only satisfied one; the other is still hungry, and that depends on you."

Instantly, the seductive voice mixed with sound waves to assault Lu Tianyu's Divine Sense Sea, and her fair, naked body lunged over along with it.

If it were an ordinary man, he would be unable to withstand it at all, and would be directly tackled to the ground to enjoy the destruction and ravaging.

How powerful was Lu Tianyu's Divine Sense? He sneered and threw a punch directly at the snake-tailed woman's body.

Bang!

The snake-tailed woman, thinking her sound waves had already controlled Lu Tianyu, was caught off guard and struck directly in the chest, letting out a shrill, inhuman scream.

Crack, crack—the sound of bones breaking.

The snake-tailed woman, who had been in human form a second ago, instantly turned into a verdant green snake body, leaving only a head as beautiful as a white-bone spirit.

Pfft!

She spat out a mouthful of blood and shrieked, "You brat, refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit! Let's see how I'll deal with you once I catch you!"

Her snake body was a meter in diameter, coiling up into rings and standing upright, a scarlet snake tongue flicking from her mouth; she looked ferocious and terrifying!

Lu Tianyu said coldly, "You have no more chances!"

He waved his hand: "Everyone, attack! Leave this one to me!"

As he spoke, he had already rushed forward, throwing a punch toward the snake woman's head.

The snake woman shrieked, "Relying on a bit of brute strength to go head-to-head with me? You're courting death!"

Swish!

She transformed into a streak of white light and collided toward him, intending to use her snake head to strike Lu Tianyu's fist.

In her understanding, no matter how powerful Lu Tianyu's Body Refining Technique was, it could not be stronger than her own body.

But the next second, she felt a massive crisis, yet it was already too late for her to dodge.

Only to see golden light flickering on Lu Tianyu's fist; the metal-attribute power almost suffocated her.

Bang—a loud explosion, and the next second she lost consciousness.

The group had just surrounded the five half-beasts when they heard a shrill scream.

They saw the snake woman's head blasted apart by Lu Tianyu's punch, her massive snake torso thrashing about wildly.

Xing Jiangyi lay on the ground, his face full of shock.

The snake-tailed woman, whose defenses he couldn't break even with all his might, had actually had her head blasted apart by Lu Tianyu in two punches.

This gap was not even a little bit.

Now he had lost an arm and a leg, effectively becoming a cripple.

The remaining five half-beasts were instantly terrified.

The snake woman was their leader and the one with the greatest strength; now that her head had been blasted apart by Lu Tianyu in one punch, they were naturally no match for this human either.

They roared, wanting to flee, but they were surrounded by over twenty people and kept under constant attack, unable to escape for the moment.

Half-beasts were primarily strong in defense and had high physical durability.

With over twenty people surrounding them and attacking with spells, they were also being beaten in circles.

With the snake woman killed, they instantly lost their fighting spirit and were thrown into chaos under the combined attack of the twenty-plus people.

Coupled with Shangguan Wan'er and the others using Mechanism Puppets, soon one half-beast had its head severed.

Then another followed.

Lu Tianyu said calmly, "Stop for now!"

Hearing this, everyone stopped.

Xing Jiangyi, who was collapsed on the ground, shouted, "Kill them! Kill them!"

"They killed so many of our people, why stop!"

He had lost an arm and a leg, and half of the people he led had been killed; his chest was filled with rage.

"Shut your mouth!"

Lu Tianyu said in a deep voice, "If you want to live, shut your mouth!"

"Ah, ah, ah~" Xing Jiangyi screamed shrilly, "Why not kill them? Why!"

His gaze toward Lu Tianyu was filled with hatred.

Slap!

Lu Tianyu sent him flying with a palm of Spiritual Energy from a distance: "If you scream again, I'll make you shut up forever!"

Murong Xue flashed over and took out two pills, handing them to Xing Jiangyi: "You had better shut up, otherwise I won't care about you either!"

Her voice was cold.

Xing Jiangyi instantly wilted.

However, his eyes were scarlet and his body trembled violently; his hatred for Lu Tianyu had risen to another level.

To be reduced to this state, and for that brat to actually shout "stop," was truly too much.

He regretted being too careless upon first entering this place and failing to set up a sword array for defense immediately.

If not for that, the ones dead would be these half-beasts.

His eyes were scarlet as he glared viciously at Lu Tianyu, completely forgetting that he himself had been saved by Lu Tianyu.

Lu Tianyu said in a deep voice, "Are you students of the Guangmu Academy?"

These half-beasts did not have blood poison on them, nor did they look like beasts; they did not seem like the beasts of the Yaoshou Senlin.

The few of them looked at Lu Tianyu in confusion, not knowing why he asked this.

They did not know much about the Guangmu Academy, but they did not believe these half-beasts were people from the Guangmu Academy.

How could the Guangmu Academy have such students?

The steel-needle-headed half-beast trembled and said, "If we tell you, can we not die?"

As soon as the words fell, a foot-long sword Qi flashed by, piercing through its brow and exiting from the back of its head.

Its body immediately turned into a large black python and crashed to the ground.

Lu Tianyu said coldly, "You have one last chance; where did you come from?"

"If you do not speak, I do not mind performing Soul Searching on you."

The half-beast with hair reaching its feet collapsed to the ground with a thud: "We are students of the Guangmu Academy participating in the selection."

"We entered the Yaoshou Senlin an hour early, then scattered and hid, preparing to kill you people from the Changheng Academy."

"The thirteen of them happened to fall into our encirclement, and we attacked and killed six people."

"Th-their strength was a bit too weak."

The remaining three half-beasts also spoke up one after another, spilling everything they knew like beans pouring from a bamboo tube.

"Our main goal for coming in this time is to hunt the students of your Changheng Academy; killing one beast earns one point, while killing one person from the Changheng Academy earns ten points."

"All of us planned to kill you all off, and then go hunt beasts."
