Chapter 1550 The Advancing Mad Cao Yuan
The first Mi-Go that appeared made a strange shrill sound toward An Qingyu, then began to slowly move toward him.
Lu Menglei, standing in front of An Qingyu, took several deep breaths. The trembling in her arms gradually subsided as she firmly gripped the bamboo sword. With a light shout, she swung the bamboo sword toward the Mi-Go’s head with a whistling sound!
Snap—!
The bamboo sword struck the writhing tentacles, as if hitting steel. With a crisp sound, the bamboo sword broke into two halves.
Lu Menglei held the half bamboo sword, almost pressed against the fleshy nodule that was the Mi-Go’s head. The indescribable stench invaded her nostrils, and her face turned extremely pale.
She could feel that the monster before her was staring at her.
Lu Menglei knew she was no match for this monster. She wanted to retreat, but for some reason, her body felt rooted to the ground like a boulder. She couldn’t summon any strength and could only watch helplessly as the monster raised one of its appendages and thrust it toward her body.
A trace of despair appeared in Lu Menglei’s eyes.
Whoosh—!!
At that moment, a figure flashed like lightning from the side, embracing Lu Menglei’s form, narrowly avoiding the attack. The Mi-Go’s appendage pierced through their afterimage, its fleshy head slowly turning to follow them.
Still in shock, Lu Menglei lay in those arms, looking up in confusion as a familiar face came into view.
“Cao… Cao Yuan junior…” Lu Menglei’s voice trembled.
Cao Yuan held Lu Menglei and gently placed her on the ground. After confirming she wasn’t injured, he slowly turned his gaze toward the Mi-Go hovering in mid-air.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and simultaneously, an aura of ferocious brutality surged from within him!
He stepped forward, walking straight toward the Mi-Go.
“Junior Cao Yuan! Don’t go over there!!” Lu Menglei called out anxiously.
Cao Yuan seemed not to hear her voice. He calmly walked to the half bamboo sword stuck in the ground. The cold wind from the Mi-Go’s fluttering membrane wings gently lifted the corners of his clothes.
He turned his head, and on that cold face appeared a faint smile:
“You’ve always wanted to see me use a blade, right?
This time… you better watch carefully.”
The Mi-Go’s massive form shrieked as it charged toward Cao Yuan. In the gusting wind, Cao Yuan’s hand gripped the half bamboo sword and forcefully pulled it from the ground!
Clang————!!
As the bamboo sword was pulled from the earth, it unexpectedly made the sound of metal striking metal. At the same time, surging murderous flames instantly covered Cao Yuan’s entire body!
Black flames enveloped Cao Yuan, wildly surging in the night as he flashed forward gripping the half bamboo sword. The black fire was blown backward by the fierce wind, resembling a rolling robe of flames!
Seeing this scene, Lu Menglei stood frozen in place, disbelief appearing in her eyes!
“Junior Cao Yuan…” she murmured.
The physical form of the half bamboo sword was completely consumed in the murderous flames, but a long black flame blade was firmly grasped in Cao Yuan’s hand.
With a deep, sinister laugh, the berserk Cao Yuan instantly flashed in front of the charging Mi-Go!
The murderous blade struck one of the appendages, and the blade’s light poured out like a fiery crescent moon, directly severing the Mi-Go’s limb. The creature, in pain, flapped its wings and rose, instantly putting dozens of meters between itself and the berserk Cao Yuan.
But Cao Yuan had no intention of letting it go. He crouched slightly, then shot up into the sky like a cannonball, precisely grabbing the base of one of the Mi-Go’s membrane wings. Several murderous blade lights tore ghastly gashes in the wing, and its body, carrying the berserk Cao Yuan, swayed as it rapidly plummeted from the sky!
In mid-air, the berserk Cao Yuan thrust the murderous blade directly into the Mi-Go’s body through its neck. The creature’s body struggled and twisted, emitting painful shrieks during the free fall.
The berserk Cao Yuan released his grip on the blade and instead grabbed the fleshy head with its writhing tentacles. The murderous flames around his body rolled as he growled, using all his strength to forcefully tear it apart!
The Mi-Go’s shrieks became increasingly miserable. The berserk Cao Yuan grinned ferociously and suddenly tore open a bloody gash in its head, then with unstoppable force, directly ripped its head along with its body into two halves!
Foul-smelling blood sprayed from mid-air as the berserk Cao Yuan gripped the murderous blade, leaped downward, and turned to deliver an exaggerated slash of murderous flame toward the sky. A sea of black fire instantly covered the entire sky!
Cao Yuan, wearing his robe of black fire and gripping the long blade, landed steadily on the ground. The Mi-Go, engulfed in murderous flames, crashed behind him and was quickly consumed completely.
Without the slightest pause, his legs pushed off again, transforming into a black line as he shot toward the other two approaching Mi-Go.
“Meow—!!”
At the same time, the thunder beast Lai Fu raised its head and called out. A thick bolt of lightning struck down from the clouds, and within the deep blue lightning, its body rapidly expanded, transforming into a hundred-meter-tall thunder beast that surged forward.
Dark lightning and black flames divided the battlefield. Lu Menglei stood dumbfounded, as if in a dream.
“This is the true appearance of this world,” the pale-faced An Qingyu slowly said, looking at the distant battlefield. “Cao Yuan, myself, Seven Nights… we are destined not to belong here. Perhaps after tonight, we will have to leave.”
Hearing these words, Lu Menglei’s heart trembled. Her sweat-covered hands slowly clenched as she stared at the figure wrapped in murderous flames, lost in thought.
Under the joint assault of the divine realm thunder beast and the berserk Cao Yuan, the two Mi-Go quickly turned to ashes.
The berserk Cao Yuan’s form landed on the ground. He turned his head toward Lu Menglei’s direction and, after a moment’s hesitation, walked straight toward her.
The black murderous flames rolled in the air as Cao Yuan, gripping the murderous blade, made a motion of sheathing his sword. The flames around his body rapidly coiled into the nothingness at his fingertips, leaving only a few small embers of fire intertwining around him before gradually dissipating.
Cao Yuan stood before Lu Menglei, looked into her eyes, and slowly spoke:
“Did you see clearly?”
Only when Cao Yuan spoke did Lu Menglei come back to her senses. She looked at his eyes with complexity and nodded:
“…Yes.”
“How did it feel?”
“A bit scary… but very cool, very impressive.”
Cao Yuan carefully examined Lu Menglei’s face. He saw not a trace of fear in her, but rather a more passionate gaze directed at him…
“Aren’t you afraid?”
“Afraid? You’re Junior Cao Yuan, why should I be afraid?” Lu Menglei glanced at Cao Yuan’s hand and smiled helplessly. “No wonder you were unwilling to use a bamboo sword in front of me… If you had used it earlier, I might have asked you to take me as your disciple.”
Cao Yuan: …
Cao Yuan opened his mouth, about to say something, when Lin Qiye’s form suddenly appeared from the darkness above.
“Be careful, they’re coming.”
