Chapter 389 - Dire Situation
"Boom! Boom!" Karshias rolled on the floor once again in a violent pace until he crashed on the arena's thick wall. However, this time, he came prepared thus the attack wasn't that severe.
"Activate!" Karshias howled in rage and released a tantamount of essence blood. In actuality, he wasn't willing to use this as it could shorten his lifespan. However, now wasn't the time to dilly dally or else he would be killed just like that.
"Form!" Karshias didn't waste time as his essence blood became a phoenix with a blazing fire.
"Screech!" The phoenix revealed an ear-piercing screech and rushed towards Jin Rou in an unstoppable momentum. The force it carried contained was very large as it contain a large world.
"Hmph!" Jin Rou snorted and swung his dual blades with a heavy power installed.
"Boom!" Jin Rou's blades clashed with the beast and almost staggered backwards. What power! Though he already knew that this phoenix was powerful, he didn't expect it that it would be to this extent! However, it wasn't unreasonable. After all, it came from a very precious essence blood.
"Activate!" Jin Rou didn't hesitate to activate an attack formation. It was a transparent palm above him and its size was massive enough to topple everything. The palm was directed to the beast, and immediately descended down.
"Bang!" The palm was so strong that it made the phoenix screech miserably. It was like a chicken being slaughtered.
"No!" Karshias revealed a pale expression, with an obvious amount of terrified. He hurriedly tried to retrieve the phoenix towards him. It was made of his precious blood. He couldn't just let it go to waste.
However, would Jin Rou let him be? Of course not. He wouldn't let his enemy take any advantage right now. He wasn't merciful enough to grace this devil a chance to survive.
"Boom!" Then, the palm suddenly got a tremendous power and instantly plummeted the phoenix into nothingness. The beast didn't even have the chance to cry for help as it disappeared within a blink of an eye.
"Bastard! I'm going to kill you!" Karshias was totally enraged and threw all caution away and started rampaging maniacally towards Jin Rou. He was like a bull with a sharp horn trying to attack his enemy head on.
Jin Rou smirked when he saw this. He knew that this was the final ditch of effort of the enemy. Since he destroyed a treasured part of the devil, it would surely not let him off even if he took down the enemy with him.
Jin Rou raised his blades and totally locked the vital part of the enemy. The neck. With how sharp the blades of Jin Rou, he could surely cut it clean without any problem.
However, just when he was about to swing his weapon down, a voice suddenly entered his ears.
"Kill Karshias and this lady's life shall be traded for it. I am daring you." It was Demure's cold voice.
Then, he looked at the way where Syni Su was and was stumped to see the situation.
Syni Su was immobilized, and was currently lying on the ground with her back above. And, there were many black rods that were impaled to her, which made her unable to move. Not just that, Demure was crouching by the side with a dagger touching the lady's neck. In fact, there was already a little blood flowing.
"What..." Because of this situation, he forgot that there was an enemy attacking him.
"Boom!" Then, Karshias head successfully hit Jin Rou and the latter was thrown away violently.
"Grug!" Jin Rou spat a mouthful of blood as his vision became blurry. It looked like he suffered a major damage from that attack. Though Karshias just attacked him head on physically, it contained a packed all out force from him. Seconds later, he felt that his body was weakening. However, he fought hard and didn't let it get over him.
"That's what you get for trying to get into my nerves! You dared to destroy my essence blood. So, you must face the consequence!" Karshias became elated as he saw the injured Jin Rou. However, he knew that it wouldn't happen if Demure didn't intervene. So, he shot the latter a grateful look with a snort.
Demure didn't mind and just smiled. He needed to intervene as he very much needed Karshias' assistance outside of this arena. They would fight the celestial family, and Karshias had a major role to play there. Furthermore, he promised the emperor that he wouldn't let anything happen to Karshias and everything must fall into places without large complications. So, he was very careful with his actions.
"Jin, don't think about me! Just kill these two while you still can. I am fine! I can die here but you cannot!" Syni Su shouted at the top of her lungs. She no longer have that elegance she had a while ago. Right now, all she wanted was to Jin Rou survive this. Even if it meant that she would trade her dear life for it.
"..." Jin Rou didn't know what to say. He looked at the eyes of the lady that were filled with determination. It was the eyes of a person who was willing to die for the sake of others.
If he really went on in offense now, he was sure that Demure would slash Syni Su's neck without hesitation. And he would fight these two to death.
In actual fact, Jin Rou was contemplating about this method. Syni Su might lose her life, but Jin Rou had a big chance of escaping this place if he couldn't kill these two devils. He wasn't the type of saint who would save anyone in distress. What more for a lady who he just had a little of a connection?
Demure knew that Jin Rou was thinking of something, thus he was waiting with patience. The tide was overturned against the enemies and there was a little to very miniscule chance of them creating a comeback.
What Jin Rou could do in this despairing situation?
