Chen Xiaobei’s heart seized.
He had planned to sit on the sidelines and watch Anti-Bei Alliance and the Blackwater Mystical Snake pummel each other to death; not expecting the Blackwater Mystical Snake to have a formation bolstering it and was able to take out nine demigods in less than half a minute!
The tail of the snake was incoming. If Long Zishan and Zhou Daoxian could not fight it off, it would all be over for everyone.
Everything was happening so quickly that even if Chen Xiaobei wanted to get involved, it was too late.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The snake’s head was pinned down and the middle part of its tail was being attacked unsuspectingly; looking as if this attack was going to be deadly.
Lo and behold!
The viper suddenly evaded the Heaven Tumbling Seal, and charged towards Zhou Daoxian like a missile.
The tail of the snake, at the same time swept towards Long Zishan from the side.
Whoop!
“Argh!”
Zhou Daoxian could not dodge in time and received the brunt of the blow squarely on his chest, sending blood gushing from his mouth.
Of course, Zhou Daoxian was the publicly recognized strongest elite on earth, with a shockingly vast health of 650,000.
Although he was throwing up blood, he was in a better shape than the others. At least he was still standing even after being pushed 10 meters back. He still had some fight left in him.
Bam!
“Ooof!”
On the other end, Long Zishan had used her Moon Blade to block the attack. Whilst able to block the viper’s tail, the force of it was so strong she was sent flying across the room.
Long Zishan was slightly weaker than Zhou Daoxian; she wobbled a little but managed to stand on her feet.
Chewing on her lips, she did not throw up but had clearly had suffered some internal injuries, severe enough that blood was streaking down the side of her lips.
“Sifu!” Liu Xuanxin screamed from afar, and quickly darted towards Long Zishan.
“Don’t come over! Run! Get out of this place and never come back!” Long Zishan shouted. When she opened her mouth, even more blood could be seen flowing out.
Although she was still standing, it was obvious that the injuries she suffered were pretty severe.
Also, what Long Zishan said sounded like a farewell to Liu Xuanxin. Clearly, Long Zishan had no hope of winning this fight and had no guarantee that she would be able to escape from this place.
If she did try to run for her life, the Blackwater Mystical Snake would surely pursue her.
With the Blackwater Mystical Snake’s superior speed, no one could ever escape from the tomb. In an attempt to escape, they would most likely be killed.
“Faction leader Long! Your disciples and my disciples are behind!” Zhou Daoxian said. “Right now, this fight is a matter of life and death! I hope that you can go all out with me, and try to buy more time for our juniors to escape!”
“Alright! I’m willing to fight to the death next to you, Faction Leader Zhou!” Long Zishan decided she was ready to fight to her death in order to give Liu Xuanxin and the others enough time for a chance to run for their lives.”
“Everyone, listen up! Get out of the tomb now!” Zhou Daoxian ordered.
The people immediately began to move, taking their injured leaders with them as they started running towards the door at the other end of the passage.
“Roar!!!”
When it saw its prey running, the Blackwater Mystical Snake roared in disgruntlement.
The people did not understand what the Blackwater Mystical Snake was saying but Chen Xiaobei somehow understood. It was saying that no one was going to leave this place alive!
Swoosh!
What happened next was completely unexpected.
Blackwater Mystical Snake left Zhou Daoxian and Long Zishan behind, and sprung like a coil towards the stone wall on the side of the passage.
Rumble!
The movement of the snake caused the earth to tremble so violently, it was as if the entire Mount Li was going to collapse.
The stone wall caved in while rocks began falling down, blocking the passage and preventing the people from escaping.
“It’s over. We’re all dead this time.”
There were cries of despair as the hundreds of people began to be consumed by feelings of hopelessness.
It was without a doubt that Zhou Daoxian and Long Zishan’s defeat was imminent and was just a matter of time. If the people were unable to get out of the mausoleum, they only end waiting for them was a grisly death.
“Roar! Roar! Roar!”
The Blackwater Mystical Snake raised its head and roared proudly.
Chen Xiaobei knew that the snake was mocking them. Stupid humans, weak humans, you are all going to die! This is the price to pay for raiding the tomb! As long as I, the Blackwater Mystical Snake am here, no one on earth would be able to enter the tomb!
When they heard the ghastly roars of the snake, everyone, including Long Zishan and Zhou Daoxian, felt unequivocally defeated.
They could neither fight nor flee. Other than die, there was nothing else that they could do! Nothing would be more painful than a situation like this in life!
“Roaaaarrrr!”
The Blackwater Mystical Snake narrowed its eyes, scouring the crowd asking ‘Who should I kill first? After being so bored for thousands of years, it’s time to have some fun.’
“Sifu!” Liu Xuanxin ran towards Long Zishan and latched on to her arm.
“Why did you come?” Long Zishan asked worriedly.
“I can’t escape anyway. Since we’re all going to die, I want to die with you!” Liu Xuanxin said, her eyes reddening.
“Silly girl,” Long Zishan sighed. She did not know what to say. With no hope of escaping, dying together seemed like a pretty good option.
“Roooar!!!”
The Blackwater Mystical Snake turned around, and locked its gaze on Liu Xuanxin .
Its roar meant, ‘Huh? There’s a strange and unusual aura on this girl. Is that a monster’s aura or is that more like Spiritual Qi? Could she be the one that has the legendary body type?”
“You beast! If you want my disciple, you have to get over my dead body first!” Long Zishan noticed the snake checking her disciple out and protectively pulled Liu Xuanxin behind her.
“Roaaaaaa!”
The Blackwater Mystical Snake looked down at her in contempt and sneered, ‘Just die already! I will start with the both of you then! I will eat you first, old woman, and then slowly devour that girl!”
“Sifu!” Being scrutinized under the predatory gaze of the Blackwater Mystical Snake sent shivers down Liu Xuanxin’s spine. Her heart was beating uncontrollably.
“Don’t be afraid. We’ll die together alright?” Long Zishan held Liu Xuanxin’s little hand in hers, keeping Liu Xuanxin protectively behind her.
“Rooooar!!!”
The Blackwater Mystical Snake was not joking.
With a loud roar, it dropped to the ground, and made its way towards Long Zishan and Liu Xuanxin with its mouth wide open; so wide, it could swallow the both of them whole!
“We’re dead! We’re dead this time!” Long Zishan and Liu Xuanxin squeezed their eyes shut, waiting for death to come knocking on their doors.
Swish!
The Blackwater Mystical Snake and its big, bloody-red mouth was approaching.
