Chapter 317 Which Arm Do You Want?
"Boom..."
The black light violently struck the figure's chest, and the raging energy sent him flying, tracing a long arc before crashing into the corner of the wall. This figure was none other than Feng Yu, who had rushed up after placing Wind Bell on the ground. Although he was not unconscious, he was severely injured.
"Brother Feng Yu!" Seeing Feng Yu get hurt again for her sake, Tang Yuexi could no longer hold back and immediately ran towards him, her eyes filled with tears.
"Cough cough... Sister, Feng Yu... Feng Yu is useless..." With Tang Yuexi's support, Feng Yu slowly stood up, coughing out a mouthful of blood. His face had turned pale; in fact, if that Divine Ability had been used on Tang Yuexi, it would have only bound her. However, Feng Yu had taken the initiative to collide with it, resulting in a different outcome.
"Brother Feng Yu... please don't, just don't do anything."
Two long streaks of tears ran down Tang Yuexi's face as she nervously called out. Among the Wind God Sect, she shared the closest relationship with Wind Bell and Feng Yu. She had always regarded Wind Bell as her sister, while Feng Yu was like an older brother to her. She never expected both of them to be severely injured because of her.
"Child, you are quite remarkable. No one has dared to defy this old woman for so many years; you are the first. You really are impressive!"
Her gaze suddenly turned cold. To her surprise, her Divine Ability had been blocked by someone. Black Wind Granny laughed in anger and slowly walked towards Feng Yu, a swirling mass of black wind forming in her right hand, containing an extremely terrifying energy.
"Black Wind Granny, I'll go with you; just don't harm him."
Seeing Black Wind Granny's demeanor, Tang Yuexi's expression changed drastically. She knew this old woman's temperament was extremely strange; if she truly handed Feng Yu over to her, he would likely not survive. She immediately positioned herself in front of Feng Yu and spoke anxiously.
"This matter does not concern you!" Black Wind Granny ignored Tang Yuexi's pleas and waved her left hand. The two Mid Saint Level guardians pulled Tang Yuexi away; as disciples of Black Wind Granny, they naturally obeyed their master's orders.
After pulling Tang Yuexi away, Black Wind Granny coldly looked at the lying Feng Yu on the ground, a cruel smile playing at the corners of her mouth. With a flick of her right hand, the terrifying black wind vortex shot directly towards Feng Yu, instantly unleashing a wave of horrifying sharp power.
Seeing this scene, those nearby couldn't bear to watch and closed their eyes because once this wind vortex made contact with Feng Yu's body, he would likely be torn to shreds. Even Feng Yu gritted his teeth and shut his eyes tightly. Just then, a sudden spatial rift appeared before him, and a strange suction force emerged, drawing the black wind vortex into the rift.
"Hmm?" This abrupt occurrence took everyone by surprise; even Feng Yu blinked hard in confusion about what had just happened.
"The Space Rift Technique... you are Sea Elder... no, you can't be him; who exactly are you?"
While most people did not recognize this Divine Ability, Black Wind Granny, as a Supreme Combat Body practitioner, immediately recognized its origin. Although entry into Nine Continents was prohibited from the Eight Directions World back then, there were ways to communicate between them—just like when Tang Yuexi and others traveled to Thunder Continent.
"Hmph, who I am is not something you have the right to know!"
A cold voice echoed in the room but left everyone unable to discern where this figure came from. They could only feel waves of thunderous sound reverberating through the space without detecting its source. Even Black Wind Granny could not pinpoint it; sensing this situation made her expression darken.
"Playing tricks! If I find you, you'll regret it!"
Black Wind Granny had extensive combat experience. Seeing that the opponent did not reveal themselves for a long time, she immediately understood that their strength was definitely inferior to hers or that they did not have complete confidence in dealing with her. As she spoke, her gaze focused on the people in the room. Since the opponent had come here, they must be after one of them.
Boom...
A sudden Explosive Sound echoed in the room, and countless dazzling lightning flashes lit up the entire space. Caught off guard, everyone was momentarily blinded by the blinding light, experiencing a brief period of blindness.
Just as her eyes fell into darkness, Tang Yuexi suddenly felt a powerful arm wrap around her waist, lifting her off the ground. Her expression changed drastically as she struggled violently. Just as she was about to scream, a voice suddenly whispered in her ear.
"It's me!"
The familiar voice sent a shiver through her heart, and she froze in place. Tears streamed down her delicate face, falling to the ground below, while joy surged on her face that she could not hide.
Why had she been holding on here? Why had her grandfather urged her to go back several times? Why had she remained so stubborn under Black Wind Granny's threats? Everything was because of that one promise.
I will wait for you in Windguard City...
It was just this one promise that made her willing to wait. She didn't know if she would have another chance after returning to the Wings of Wind Continent, so she didn't want to miss this last opportunity. She thought she could no longer wait, but unexpectedly, at this final moment, the person she had been waiting for finally arrived. In a crisis, a hero saves a beauty; although such a plot seemed cliché, it still moved her to speechlessness.
"Hmm?"
Ordinary people would not notice this sound, but as Black Wind Granny, with her Supreme Combat Body, had exceptionally keen senses. Although her eyes could not clearly see everything before her yet, she could already confirm that the target was the same as hers: Tang Yuexi!
"Hmph!" With a cold snort, Black Wind Granny reached out into the void, and endless whirlwinds immediately gathered into her right hand. In an instant, a massive wind ball formed in her palm, with black whirlwinds swirling around it. The Black Wind Ball was one of her ultimate techniques, its power far surpassing the earlier attack on Feng Yu by over a hundred times because it contained the power of the wind Law she had comprehended.
In a flash, her dark figure appeared before Tang Yuexi, a cruel smile at the corner of her mouth as she pushed the Black Wind Ball towards Tang Yuexi without hesitation. She was betting—betting with Tang Yuexi's life. She believed that the opponent would definitely block this attack for Tang Yuexi!
Seeing Black Wind Granny's merciless attack, Sun Zhe's expression turned cold. Indeed, this sudden arrival was none other than Sun Zhe, who had just saved Feng Yu's life.
With his right arm around Tang Yuexi, he shielded her behind him. The Law symbol on his forehead immediately began to spin, and an astonishing aura of Law spread from his hand. Countless incantations swirled from his right hand as he waved forward into the void, transforming numerous crystal lights into a Spatial Barrier that blocked in front of him.
However, this was still insufficient; the hastily cast technique could not withstand an attack from Black Wind Granny. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to devise such a scheme.
"Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!"
Sun Zhe was never known for his kindness. He reached out into the void and pressed down on one of Black Wind Granny's disciples beside him. The female protector's expression changed as she prepared to resist but was caught off guard by countless fine purple threads emanating from Sun Zhe's right hand that immediately bound her body. With a pull of his hand, he used her body as resistance against the attack.
Although these actions seemed lengthy, they actually occurred in an instant. Just as everyone's eyes recovered from the blinding light, a deafening Explosive Sound echoed in their ears, causing the very ground of the room to tremble. Under the roar of the violent energy, even the walls shook.
In the aftermath of the turbulent energy, Black Wind Granny was forced to stagger backward. Sun Zhe retreated to Feng Yu's position while holding Tang Yuexi. At this moment, the others also helped the awakened Feng Ling to this side. In this confrontation, only Black Wind Granny's disciple was severely injured by her black wind sphere.
"Who exactly are you?"
Fixing her gaze on Sun Zhe, who was holding Tang Yuexi, Black Wind Granny coldly asked. The technique Sun Zhe had just used was clearly Sea Elder's Divine Ability. Yet, Sun Zhe was merely a Saint-Level Expert while simultaneously possessing Law power stronger than that of an ordinary Initial Stage of Divine Realm expert. She had never encountered such a situation before.
"Leave it to me!"
Gently placing Tang Yuexi on the ground, Sun Zhe spoke softly. Others observed this intimate gesture, and Tang Yuexi's face instantly turned crimson. Hearing Sun Zhe's words, she softly responded and nodded.
"Do you want to keep your left arm or your right arm?"
Turning around to look at Black Wind Granny with indifference, Sun Zhe coldly stated as if negotiating a price with someone. As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the room collectively gasped in shock. A chilling and bizarre feeling spread through their hearts; it was the first time they had witnessed a Saint-Level Expert speak to a Supreme Combat Body in such a manner.
