Chapter 81 At stake
"Who I am is not important. What's important is that you will all die here today." The man in black said, raising his hand and sending ice blades flying towards the crowd.
Xu Yan shouted, "Everyone be careful!" Everyone hurriedly took cover.
Huan Yuechu formed hand seals, attempting to use flames to block the ice blades, but the ice blades were extremely powerful, and the flames were quickly suppressed.
At this critical moment, Xu Yan's sharp eyes suddenly caught a hint of something unusual.
He looked closely and saw that there seemed to be a faint light shimmering behind the mysterious man in black, as if a powerful energy source was continuously supplying him with power.
Thinking to herself that things were going badly, Xu Yan made a quick decision and decided to take a roundabout approach.
He crouched low, moved cautiously, trying not to make a sound, and quietly circled around to the back of the man in black.
At the same time, Huan Yuechu knew that time was of the essence, so she did not hesitate to use all her skills to attract the attention of the men in black.
Her figure moved elusively like a ghost, her weapon flashing and transforming into streaks of cold light as she engaged in a fierce head-on confrontation with the man in black.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Xu Yan took a deep breath, calmed herself, raised her gun, and aimed at the energy source hidden in the darkness.
With a gentle pull of the trigger, a loud "bang" rang out, and a bullet shot out like lightning, hitting the target accurately.
In an instant, the man in black felt a tremendous impact coming from behind, as if he had been hit hard by a heavy hammer.
His body trembled violently, and the storm that was attacking Huan Yuechu paused briefly due to this sudden change.
Just then, everyone's attention was drawn to the mysterious man in black.
His face, which had been hidden in the darkness, was now fully exposed, filled with anger, like a volcano about to erupt.
Especially his eyes, wide and round, as if the eyeballs were about to pop out, burning with a raging fire, as if looking at him any longer would engulf him in that rage.
Suddenly, the man in black swiftly and decisively extended his right hand behind his back.
As he did this, the surrounding air seemed to tremble slightly, followed by an extremely faint sound.
Although the sound wasn't loud, it was exceptionally clear in the quiet environment, making one's heart skip a beat.
Then, everyone saw something slowly appear in the black-clad man's hand—a long sword as black as ink! The blade gleamed with a cold, eerie light, like a ghost in the dark night, exuding a chilling aura.
This sword looks incredibly sharp, with a faint, cold gleam emanating from its blade, as if it could easily sever everything in the world.
The sword gleamed with an eerie light, sending chills down one's spine.
In the blink of an eye, the man in black robes, wielding a long sword, lunged at Huan Yuechu with lightning speed.
The sword strike was incredibly fierce, flashing through the void like lightning, carrying a strong killing intent as it hurtled towards Huan Yuechu.
However, Huan Yuechu seemed completely unprepared for the opponent's swift attack and was caught off guard.
As the fatal sword was about to pierce her body, everyone's hearts were in their throats.
At this critical moment, Wen Xingyu, seeing the situation was dire, tried to intervene, but it was too late.
In a moment of panic, she rushed forward without hesitation, using her own body to block the longsword that was heading straight for Huan Yuechu.
The long sword pierced her chest, and blood splattered out.
Huan Yuechu's eyes widened, and with a roar, the white light on her body suddenly intensified several times, rushing towards the black-robed man like a blazing sun.
The man in black robes was forced to retreat repeatedly by the intense light, and his long sword even flew out of his hand.
Huan Yuechu stared wide-eyed at Wen Xingyu, who was lying in her arms with her eyes closed and her face as pale as paper. Her heart was filled with disbelief and shock.
With trembling hands, she gently touched the bleeding wounds on Wen Xingyu's body, and a piercing pain instantly spread throughout her body.
"Xingyu! Why are you so foolish!"
She couldn't understand how this seemingly frail woman could have such amazing courage and determination, stepping forward without hesitation to shield her from the fatal sword with her delicate body.
At this moment, Huan Yuechu, who was known for his perseverance and strength, was stunned and his mind went blank in the face of this scene.
She hugged Wen Xingyu tightly, as if doing so could preserve her fading life force.
Although Wen Xingyu had collapsed to the ground, extremely weak, she still endured the excruciating pain, struggled to open her eyes, forced a smile, and whispered, "Sister Yuechu, don't worry, I'm really alright..."
At this critical moment, Xu Yan led her team members like tigers descending a mountain, charging towards the mysterious man in black robes.
They cooperated seamlessly, unleashing their respective signature moves and spells. In an instant, light flashed and wind howled, and they successfully trapped the man in black robes in the middle.
On the other side, Huan Yuechu gritted her teeth, a resolute glint flashing in her beautiful eyes.
Despite her deep sorrow, she knew she must not let her emotions control her at this moment.
She forced back her tears, quickly composed herself, and pressed her hands tightly against Wen Xingyu's back, continuously channeling her pure spiritual energy into her.
As spiritual energy was injected, the blood that had been gushing from Wen Xingyu's body gradually slowed down, and the wounds began to emit a faint spiritual light.
However, Huan Yuechu knew very well that this was only a temporary measure and could not fundamentally save Wen Xingyu's life.
Because the attack from the man in black was so fierce, it had already caused fatal damage to Wen Xingyu.
But no matter what, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, she will never give up!
Just then, Wen Xingyu shook her head at me, "Sister Yuechu, don't waste your energy on me. I can still hold on. You must defeat him."
Huan Yue clenched her fists. She understood that Wen Xingyu was right; only by defeating the men in black could the crisis be truly resolved.
She slowly put Wen Xingyu down, her eyes hardening again, and turned to walk towards the man in black robes.
As the man in black saw Huan Yuechu approaching, he snorted coldly, formed hand seals, and a massive storm surged forth, sweeping towards Huan Yuechu.
Huan Yuechu waved her hands, and a white shield appeared, easily blocking the storm's attack.
She then flashed and instantly appeared in front of the man in black, raising her hand to unleash a powerful spiritual energy attack.
The man in black hastily tried to defend himself, but was still forced back several steps.
Huan Yuechu gave the man in black a chance to breathe, chanting a spell. Suddenly, beams of white light descended from the sky, all crashing down on the man in black.
