Chapter 464: Older Sister and Younger Sister Can
With one wave, an oily black ma.s.s attached itself to the scarlet energy that was rotting the Ultimate Ice’s branches.
The black oily ma.s.s countered the Mother of Bloodbath’s blood energy. It also weaved together the hole in the Ultimate Ice’s branches and effectively slowed the rate of rotting.
Despite having negated the Mother of Bloodbath’s energy, the Ultimate Ice would continue to wither from the hole outward without its tree core.
The black-cloaked person spoke with a deep and grating voice.
“By attacking the Zheng family’s third lineage, you have offended the Zheng family. You shall pay for your actions with your life.”
The Mother of Bloodbath kept the Ultimate Ice’s tree core in the red crystal cl.u.s.ter Diamond fey storage box hanging off its ear.
Its tone and att.i.tude remained playful.
“Don’t hide behind the mask. I smelled the stench of a bat-species fey on you from the start.”
Although its tone was impish, its expression was completely serious.
The scarlet glow in its hand flashed. The light streaked toward where Lin Yuan’s group was standing and separated to form four crimson crystal spiders.
Lin Yuan knew that the Mother of Bloodbath was using its Gold ability, Spider Incubation, to protect him and the rest.
Four s.h.i.+elds in the shape of the Mother of Bloodbath’s back armor covered the Lava Dragon Lizard’s Lava s.h.i.+eld.
When the Mother of Bloodbath’s armor-shaped s.h.i.+eld engulfed the Lava s.h.i.+eld, Lin Yuan felt the crus.h.i.+ng barrier restricted outside.
The s.h.i.+eld’s interior felt as though it had been sanitized.
At the same time that it launched the crimson crystal spiders, the Mother of Bloodbath’s body was suddenly awash with a blinding scarlet light.
Blood Law Runes appeared and released their maximum power.
The initially calm sea simultaneously transformed into sticky coagulation of blood that extended endlessly.
A ferocious red spider, the size of a small mountain, appeared at the spot previously occupied by the Mother of Bloodbath.
The spider was swathed in blood energy. Other than its back, its entire body was covered with a terrifying fur of stingers.
The stingers gleamed shocking red.
The moment that the Mother of Bloodbath transformed, it charged toward the man in black.
Nightmare VI morphed into a plume of black smoke at the same time that the Mother of Bloodbath charged at him, deftly dodging her attack.
The Mother of Bloodbath was unfazed, and it immediately changed directions.
Two scarlet stinger-covered spider legs raised and stabbed, penetrating the still weak Ultimate Ice.
About two meters long each, two gashes were left on the branches of the already helpless Ultimate Ice.
The gashes almost sliced the Ultimate Ice’s branches into thirds.
At that moment, Nightmare VI, which had transformed into black smoke, appeared behind the Mother of Bloodbath.
Nightmare VI transformed from human form into an enormous black bat. Its obsidian body was lined with metal.
The bat flapped its wings, sweeping up mounds of grey dust.
The roiling dust was thick, obscuring the vision of the people present. It seemed to transport them to a whole other world.
The enormous bat crossed its wings, forming hooks, and slashed down toward the weak spot of the Mother of Bloodbath’s spider body.
The grating voice exclaimed, “Dead Dream Law, Devour Dream Hook.”
The Mother of Bloodbath antic.i.p.ated the attack and leaped into the air.
The eye that grew on the Mother of Bloodbath’s back armor had noticed Nightmare VI’s movements early on and had formed a strategy to counter Nightmare VI’s abilities using All-Seeing Eye.
Nevertheless, Nightmare VI’s two soul eater hooks were too quick and managed to land a blow on one of the Mother of Bloodbath’s legs.
The attack was inflicted on the Mother of Bloodbath while it was leaping into the air.
The Mother of Bloodbath’s strange yet pleasant voice shrieked viciously. “Blood Law, Blood Control!”
The Mother of Bloodbath’s Blood Control ability could manipulate the enemy’s movements through controlling their blood.
Although both Nightmare VI and the Mother of Bloodbath were Myth II feys, Nightmare VI’s power was at the peak of Myth II.
As such, the Mother of Bloodbath could not control Nightmare VI for long.
Nonetheless, that short window was enough.
While Blood Control was manipulating Nightmare VI’s body, three light purple flower buds the size of small b.a.l.l.s appeared behind it.
The purple flowers bloomed and shed, transforming into a rain of purple petals.
One flower petal elongated to become a light-purple spear.
After the transformation of the first petal, the rest of the petals swiftly followed, each one of them turning into light-purple spears.
When Listen caught sight of the razor-sharp light-purple spears, he immediately recognized them. They were the same ones that had slain the king-cla.s.s experts that had tried to a.s.sa.s.sinate him in the Royal Capital.
A gentle and caring voice cried out. “Shooting Spears of Summer, Three Thousand Spears of Summer!”
The Three Thousand Spears of Summer sailed through the air, and half of them embedded themselves in the enormous bat.
Nightmare VI’s metal back burst open at the point of contact, and a fountain of inky blood gushed out.
Unfortunately, the spears did not manage to fully penetrate Nightmare VI’s body. They merely punctured it.
By the time the other half of the spears were flying toward the giant bat, Nightmare VI had already escaped the Mother of Bloodbath’s Blood Control.
Nightmare VI morphed into a cloud of smoke and resumed its human form. Its once pristine black cloak was now tattered and torn. Its features were twisted into a sinister expression.
Its eyes turned into slits, and only the whites could be seen. Its skin had an unhealthy ashy color, and two sharp incisors grew out of the corners of its mouth.
Nightmare VI spat out a ma.s.s of black blood before its grave voice carried threatening undertones.
“Do you know the consequences of opposing the Zheng family?”
The rain of light-purple petals continued to dance in the wind as Endless Summer appeared next to Lin Yuan.
It noticed the human manifestation of the Mother of Bloodbath standing nearby. Despite its relaxed expression, its leg had completely deformed.
Endless Summer studied the Mother of Bloodbath’s deformed leg for a while, its brow furrowing tighter and tighter.
Its kind gaze was laced with ferocity as it fixed its eyes on Nightmare VI.
“Another dark-type fey. I sure am fated with dark-type feys,” said Endless Summer.
“Since the Zheng family has sent out a.s.sa.s.sins, it means that you’re aware of the consequences of making enemies of Sky City.”
Endless Summer’s eyes landed on the Mother of Bloodbath.
“Leave this Dream-Eating Bat to me. You take care of that old man and the two stalks of chives.”
Endless Summer snapped its fingers, and runes swirled around its fingertips as it whispered, “Older Sister can!”
The Mother of Bloodbath snapped to attention at its words.
“Younger Sister can too!”
Lin Yuan rubbed his forehead.
Is this really how Older Sister and Younger Sister Can should be used!?
