Chapter 602 - 598: Decisive Action
The commotion at the scene caused a significant disturbance, which Wen Nanxi could feel from a distance.
He sensed something, his heart tightened, and the sense of fear and dread grew within him.
Ayao!
She mustn’t be in trouble.
Otherwise, he couldn’t imagine how insane he would become or what crazy actions he might take.
He couldn’t live alone.
But considering this, Wen Nanxi naturally remembered that when he and his wife had reforms their Contract, they also re-established the Life and Death Contract.
If so, he would live and die with his wife.
If his wife was in danger, he should be able to sense it.
At the moment, he hadn’t felt anything, so Wen Nanxi could be sure his wife was temporarily safe.
Even so, Wen Nanxi didn’t dare to hold any slight hope.
His gaze suddenly darkened, and he pushed his speed to the limit, arriving outside the Qingqiu Mountain Fox Clan.
After arriving here, Wen Nanxi became more acutely aware of what had happened.
When Nan Feng saw Wen Nanxi, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Perfect timing. They could be fused together.
Nan Feng’s eyes gleamed with a mad obsession as he unleashed several explosive Magic Artifacts, brushing off the Great Elder and others, and catalyzed his superpower to directly attack Wen Nanxi.
When Wen Nanxi saw Nan Feng, his eyes surged with bloodthirsty intent.
It was him; he had killed Ayao once.
Wen Nanxi initially wanted to check on his wife, but since Nan Feng was blocking his way and rushing over, he deemed it necessary to deal with him first.
Thunder rumbled, and winds and rain lashed continuously, causing his robes to flail in the wind. Due to using his superpower, the rain didn’t fall on his clothes.
Just by looking at Nan Feng, the boundless rage within Wen Nanxi was ignited.
He stared fiercely at Nan Feng, his eyes full of a do-or-die determination, the murderous intent in his eyes almost materializing.
Even the surrounding air turned chillingly cold due to the fierce killing aura surrounding him; even the wind and rain seemed to stagnate somewhat.
At this moment, Nan Feng moved quickly, with his weaponized Hidden Weapons, emitting cold light, shot rapidly towards Wen Nanxi.
This was not the same Hidden Weapon used to kill Su Muyao before.
In the past, Su Muyao was killed with the Soul Destruction Nail, but dealing with Wen Nanxi, he didn’t want to kill him yet; his aim was to merge parts.
So he used the Spirit Locking Nail; once the nail hit the body, it would prevent the Beastman from utilizing his superpower.
Wen Nanxi’s response was quicker; almost the moment he saw Nan Feng, he had already catalyzed his Wind Ability.
"The enmity of murderous intent must be avenged today."
Since Nan Feng came to them, there was no need to seek him out later, and today was the day to settle the score.
Otherwise, Wen Nanxi could not forgive himself either.
In an instant, he unleashed all his Wind Ability without any reservations.
Centered around him, countless energies of Wind Ability swept out, causing a violent wind storm to arise around him.
The night already filled with howling winds and rain now had these forces drawn by his power. His superpower transformed into sharp Wind Blades that roared towards Nan Feng.
Since fusing with the Divine Soul, Wen Nanxi had yet to truly utilize the magic power from the memories of the Divine Soul.
Now he deployed it.
The Wind Blades were no longer ordinary; the Wind Blades he unleashed now bore a lethal intent to cut through everything, scattering mud, slicing trees, and causing leaves to fly, intertwining with the wind and rain around.
It seemed to carry a vast force of destruction.
Nan Feng’s Hidden Weapons were blown away by this immense wind force; he rapidly pivoted, and with a flick of his wrist, a Defensive Magical Artifact blocked this sharp wind force, simultaneously summoning countless Flying Knives to attack Wen Nanxi from all directions.
These weren’t ordinary Flying Knives; they were Artifact Blades that could change trajectory according to the Beastman’s will.
Daring to come naturally meant he was well-prepared.
Yet, Nan Feng was inwardly astonished, "How could your strength grow so quickly in such a short period?"
Wen Nanxi didn’t respond at all, but instead, his hands moved rapidly in a sealing gesture, causing the wind energy around him to surge dramatically, "Secret Technique·Wind Roar Nine Heavens!"
As he used the secret technique, a metallic taste rose in Wen Nanxi’s throat, but he forcefully suppressed it so Nan Feng wouldn’t notice.
The two then swiftly engaged in battle.
The Great Elder and others wanted to help, but amidst the fierce winds and rain, they could only see two blurred figures constantly clashing and intertwining, unable to discern their exact forms; they couldn’t lend aid.
Lest they accidentally injure someone.
The Great Elder and others had to shift focus, quickly targeting the Insect Clan Beastmen.
With the Great Elder and others personally taking action, despite the Insect Clan Beastmen’s numbers, they were at a disadvantage.
On another side, Jing Chu, who was fighting the black-clad female, also noticed Wen Nanxi.
The corners of Luo Leshuang’s mouth curled up as the thought occurred—it’s perfect timing, just right for Nan Feng to complete the fusion.
Nonetheless, battling Jing Chu, Luo Leshuang found it challenging.
Although only her Spiritual Body had arrived, not her main body, and the strength of the Spiritual Body couldn’t be compared to the main body, during the battle, she still found it difficult, realizing this Ancient Celestial Snake’s avatar was far stronger than Nan Feng alone.
If she hadn’t come to assist, Nan Feng absolutely couldn’t have dealt with him.
She used many life-preserving techniques just to tie the match with him.
She understood she couldn’t delay; swift victory was necessary.
Her hands moved rapidly in a sealing gesture, intending to trap Jing Chu.
Jing Chu, seeing Wen Nanxi, also realized the need for a swift victory. He quickly broke through Luo Leshuang’s black array, swiftly attacking with Wind Blades.
Luo Leshuang was too slow by an instant, and her Spiritual Body almost got killed. It was the protective vestment robe she wore that blocked the fatal blow.
Simultaneously, the protective vestment robe on Luo Leshuang was torn.
The black cloak she wore was that protective vestment, directly torn, revealing her true face.
Even though protected by the vestment, Jing Chu’s Wind Blade pierced through her body, only narrowly avoiding vital points due to the vestment’s protection.
"Puh..."
Luo Leshuang spat out a mouthful of blood, disregarding anything else as she stared wide-eyed at the torn vestment, realizing it had lost its effectiveness.
"How dare you!"
This was a gift from her lord.
She habitually refrained from wearing or using it, but wore it to protect her Spiritual Body.
"Ah..."
Luo Leshuang began to lose her sanity, an ominous aura spreading around her, making it impossible for Jing Chu to approach.
Originally, Jing Chu could have seized the opportunity to kill her.
But now, time was running out.
In this instant, Jing Chu decisively struck, injuring Nan Feng, and simultaneously shot the Seven-orifice Body Condensing Pill into Wen Nanxi’s mouth.
This dissolved instantly, not allowing Wen Nanxi to refuse.
"What is this?"
"The Seven-orifice Body Condensing Pill, fuse us, quickly."
"Any later, and it’ll be too late; she is likely one of the Ten Great Guardians under the Chaos Fierce Beastman. Though I’ve injured her, being a Fierce Beastman, even just a Spiritual Body, she’s tough to deal with, even if she destroys herself with her Spiritual Body."
"The main point is to protect Mu Yao."
"Right now, what’s most important is the fusion, not letting her disturb our plan."
Jing Chu had been waiting for Wen Nanxi to return to allow him to fuse with them.
Once fused, dealing with this female Fierce Beastman would be easier.
There was no time for Jing Chu to explain more.
To Jing Chu, after fusion, they could better protect Su Muyao.
And with Nan Feng coming on his own, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
