Chapter 3402 — Going All Out
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
But in Wei Zhao's present physical condition, it was simply impossible for him to unleash the eleventh form of the Frenzied Fire Eight Trigrams Palm again. He could only keep dodging.
At this rate, no matter how long Wei Zhao kept circling, he could not possibly be a match for these two. Anxiety burned in his heart, and his stamina was draining away second by second. By now he was a spent arrow.
Wei Zhao's steps grew slower and slower, his movements more and more labored. He was now drawing severely on his reserves, and he was wounded besides. Had it not been for sheer willpower, he would surely have fallen.
"Heh heh, so this is all Wei Zhao amounts to! Three biohumans and he's this wretched. If the others had come along yesterday too, Wei Zhao would probably be dead by now!" The hypnotist looked at Wei Zhao with a cold sneer. "With that level of skill, he still dares to oppose our Young Master Wen—he clearly has no idea what death means!"
"Let's hope Wei Zhao doesn't live past today…" Little Pure nodded, his heart easing a little. Wei Zhao was plainly at a disadvantage now; in his view, Wei Zhao's doom was certain.
"Watch out!" Wei Zhao twisted aside. He dodged Biohuman Two's attack, but Biohuman Three's strike came hard on its heels. It looked as though Wei Zhao could not escape, and Qiu Lingshan cried out in alarm to warn him.
Instinctively she rushed forward to help, hurling a full-force blow at Biohuman Three. But her fist landed on its body and the creature did not so much as flinch, as if her strike had done nothing at all. Biohuman Three pressed on toward Wei Zhao.
"Everyone, help!" Qiu Lingshan cried urgently.
Tang Taizhong, Tang Lingtou, Tang Lao'er and Tang Yuyu heard the call and hurried forward to attack Biohuman Three as well. Tang Taizhong knew that if anything happened to Wei Zhao, the Hidden Tang Clan would be finished along with him.
But none of them were especially strong. Even attacking Biohuman Three, they could not do it much harm; its movements slowed only slightly, just enough for Wei Zhao to dodge the blow.
Yet no sooner had Wei Zhao evaded Biohuman Three's attack than Biohuman Two's assault came in again, and he cursed inwardly.
Biohuman Three alone was more than Qiu Lingshan and the others could handle; now Biohuman Two was coming as well, and she was even less able to cope. In this critical moment, she could do nothing at all.
"Nuwa Mends the Heavens…" Just as Biohuman Two was about to strike Wei Zhao, Yu Xiaoke at his side gave a great shout and unleashed her defensive technique. In truth, Yu Xiaoke had been preparing all along; seeing Wei Zhao's strength failing, she hurried to bring out her supreme skill.
But these two biohumans were no weaklings—their attack power was on par with late Heaven rank. Yu Xiaoke was only an early Heaven rank adept. Even if she could block the attacks of a late Heaven rank adept, she could not hold out for long.
"Boom…" Biohuman Two's attack did not land on Wei Zhao; it struck as though against a barrier.
In that instant Wei Zhao was utterly released from the onslaught—he even collapsed to the ground. His strength was spent. He had to recover his stamina and true qi as quickly as possible, and repair the injuries inside his body.
He knew Yu Xiaoke could not last long, so he immediately set the Xuanyuan Dragon-Taming Art into motion and began repairing his injuries and restoring his strength and true qi.
Qiu Lingshan knew of Yu Xiaoke's defensive move and breathed a little easier, leaving Biohuman Three and Biohuman Two to keep attacking Wei Zhao. Old Master Tang, Tang Taizhong, was a Heaven rank adept too, but a Heaven rank raised on pills was largely padded—his attacks were feeble. Striking Biohuman Three, he could not even wound it badly; he could only inflict minor injuries, which left him deeply frustrated.
Powerless to help Wei Zhao now, he could do nothing but fret helplessly, watching the two biohumans attack.
