Pamela was stunned on the spot, and those with a bit of strength, unsuppressed by the formation, easily broke free from the restraints. They rushed towards the intersection.
Since Su Jiu had killed most of them, leaving only a few insignificant ones, the representatives of these factions were not a problem and could break through directly.
Upon seeing the suppression formation shattered, the middle-aged man with a moustache glanced at the stunned Black-clad Bishop, Pamela, then lightly stepped on the air and shot towards Xiangzi, snatching her away like one would a cat or dog.
Glancing at the middle-aged man with a moustache, Pamela did not stop him. After a mere glance, she withdrew her gaze. The blood sacrifice had been disrupted, and it was futile to stop an Intermediate Battle King from leaving.
“Heh heh, Night Watcher, you have thoroughly angered me.”
She then stared intently ahead, watching Su Jiu support herself with a long sword. An icy aura surged outwards from her feet, and the temperature within a dozen meters around her became extremely cold. Raindrops turned into ice pellets and fell from the sky.
Following this, a phantom resembling a narwhal leaped repeatedly on the water’s surface, emitting low roars that shook the surroundings.
This was a skill unique to the Battle King Level – Domain! Clearly, she had been completely enraged by Su Jiu’s cunning maneuver.
“Lord Jiu, let’s join forces to stop her. Reinforcements will arrive shortly.” Su Jiu formed seals with her fingers, shouting loudly. A fiery aura sword appeared beneath her feet, and she quickly retreated backward.
Fighting within a Battle King’s domain would only lead to a cycle of diminishing strength, not only restricting one’s abilities but also quickly putting them at a disadvantage.
“Okay!” After exchanging glances with Su Jiu, Jiu Yun slowly nodded and also erected a lightning domain. Within the lightning, a phantom of a slightly ruffled giant bird swam.
After helping the government subdue the Ancient God Sect, even outsiders like him could earn merit points to exchange for goods. Since reinforcements were coming, he didn’t mind lending a hand.
The frost on the ground grew heavier, and the air crackled as a white shadow suddenly shot towards Su Jiu, who stood on the fiery aura sword. The intense pressure of the wind made one’s eardrums ache.
The speed at which the white shadow attacked made Su Jiu’s expression change slightly. With a flick of her finger, the fiery aura sword carried her, gliding as she instantly retreated nearly ten meters.
“Boom!”
The white shadow landed heavily, smashing into the spot where Su Jiu had been standing. A violent sound erupted around the abandoned, unfinished building, and as debris scattered, cracks spread across the asphalt road covered in frost.
Missing its target, Pamela slowly raised her head, pulling out the giant ice blade she had struck into the ground. Then, her already distorted face began to drop chunks of flesh, becoming even more disgusting.
Shaking the great blade, Pamela suddenly shot out again from the dust. This time, her speed had increased severalfold in an instant compared to before.
The terrifying speed made her appear to flicker. Several illusory shadows appeared, and she rapidly approached Su Jiu. Su Jiu’s various fiery slashes were all smashed to pieces by her in the most brutal way.
“The domain provides too much of a boost. Moreover, a High-Rank Battle King fused with a bloodline phantom is terrifyingly powerful.” Su Jiu murmured to herself with a solemn expression, her gaze falling on Pamela, who was attacking like a frenzied demon.
Just as she was about to counterattack, a blue light circle appeared, and a chilling sensation suddenly surged through her skin. She abruptly turned her head, and a white frost shadow appeared behind her like a ghost.
“Die.”
The white shadow slightly raised its head, revealing a crazed and twisted face. Her head was tilted, and she raised the ice blade high. With the domain, she slammed it down towards Su Jiu’s neck with a terrifying gust of wind. As the blade passed, a piercing sonic boom sounded.
This strike aimed to deliver a killing blow!
Su Jiu’s eyes suddenly narrowed. Holding her sword, she managed to block the attack with a maneuver like a ram’s horn, but the terrifying power directly sent Su Jiu rolling across the ground like a sandbag.
Seeing this, Jiu Yun dared not hold back any longer. He immediately fused his bloodline true phantom into his body, then gripped a snow-white spear and charged forward, performing a flourish.
“With your mere Intermediate Battle King strength, less than ten percent restored, you dare to interfere.”
Glancing sideways, disdain flickered in Pamela’s eyes. She met him casually without even fusing her true phantom.
Those who had not had time to escape watched Su Jiu in the dust with concern, not expecting the official who came to rescue them to be defeated so easily.
“Why haven’t they arrived yet…”
Su Jiu got up again, let out a breath, and charged towards Pamela. Their figures flickered and interchanged, colliding once more. With the sound of energy explosions, the three figures were locked in combat, with Pamela fighting two opponents and only sustaining minor injuries.
During the fight, Su Jiu attempted to use “Blood Surge” but couldn’t use it directly. It only made her opponent tremble slightly, slightly reducing her attacks, as the power gap between them was considerable.
“Heh heh, I’ll deal with you first, then my little darling.”
Soon, Pamela seemed to realize that Jiu Yun was the main factor influencing the battle. Because he had cast his domain over Su Jiu, who wasn’t erecting her own domain, she moved her body and strangely appeared behind Jiu Yun.
She caught Su Jiu’s attack with one hand holding the sword, while a chilling white streak shot out from her sleeve, darting like lightning towards Jiu Yun’s throat.
“Ayamu 7. Pa Wu Shi # Jiuliu Pa Qi 7. So fast!”
Seeing the terrifying attack, a flicker of fear flashed in Jiu Yun’s eyes. He hastily parried with his spear, taking the blow directly, but he was also struck by the incoming ice blade, hitting the wall. Instantly, dust billowed.
Seeing Jiu Yun hammered against the wall, Su Jiu’s eyes became extremely grave. Logically, reinforcements should have arrived within fifteen minutes; fifteen minutes was just the estimated time on the navigation.
But they were delayed. Was something holding them up?
However, Pamela gave Su Jiu no room to breathe. The giant ice blade swung towards Su Jiu’s neck. With each swing, the terrifying power caused continuous sonic booms in the surrounding void, and each swing stirred up waves of ice.
Facing this fierce and unmatched attack, Su Jiu could only clench her teeth and meet it head-on. In such a narrow encounter, if one backed down, the exposed weak point would be exploited by the opponent and directly shattered.
“I’m no match for her at all…”
After about dozens of collisions, the hand holding the long sword trembled slightly. Su Jiu was repelled dozens of steps again. The mask on her face had been shattered, and a pained grunt escaped her throat. A mouthful of fresh blood slid down her fair lips.
The bright red color was like a blooming rose, beautiful yet filled with the color of decay.
Biting her teeth hard, Su Jiu stared at the hideously ugly monstrous face. Staggering, she used her long sword to support herself and stand up. At this moment, she felt time was passing exceptionally slowly. The reinforcements were using GPS navigation, and she didn’t know why they were so slow; she hoped it wasn’t a ridiculous reason like a traffic jam.
“Hoo… it’s quite possible. I only messaged him about the approximate location of the Black-clad Bishop.”
Exhaling a breath of hot air, she closed and opened her eyes again. She could feel the cold raindrops passing through her arms like long, thin silver threads. Her gaze fell upon the formation, which was now empty, and her eyes sank slightly.
Uncle, if you don’t come soon, I’m going to die…
“Heh heh, I’ve never tried infiltrating the Night Watchers. I wonder what that would be like.”
Pamela looked coldly at Su Jiu, who was struggling to get up from the ground, her lips curling with disdain. With a light step, she walked slowly towards the injured Su Jiu.
Not far away, Jiu Yun clutched his chest, watching Pamela’s actions. He wanted to stop her, but he had already been exhausted too much. He could not contend with this Black-clad Bishop at the moment.
Pamela stopped in front of Su Jiu, her eyes filled with a strange smile as she looked down at her face, chuckling softly, “In a little while, this pretty face will be mine.”
“But before that, I need to draw some blood.” Casually making a few sword flowers with the ice blade, Pamela touched her wrinkled face and smiled. Then, her eyes suddenly turned cold, and she slightly raised the ice blade in her hand, aiming to slash towards Su Jiu’s neck.
Just as Su Jiu was about to try and dodge again, she felt a fair little hand embrace her waist, and her body shot skyward. Instantly, smelling the familiar scent, Su Jiu abruptly turned her head and looked at the girl with a large red mark on her forehead, asking in surprise, “Why are you back again?”
It turned out to be Bai Zhi whom she was waiting for.
Floating in the air, Bai Zhi glanced at Su Jiu, then her gaze fell below, looking at Pamela, who had completely transformed into an old woman. She clicked her tongue, “As expected, an old hag…”
Meeting Su Jiu’s disheveled little face, she then wiped the blood from her face with her sleeve, rolled her eyes, and explained, “I just felt that the delivery was unreliable, so I came back to get it. I didn’t expect to sense you fighting here and almost dying.”
“There’s fighting outside too. A middle-aged uncle seems to be beating up that Little Sakura with a moustache… We need to leave here quickly.”
“Leave? Perhaps not.”
Su Jiu looked at the middle-aged man not far away, who was carrying a string of people with their wrists bound, with a bitter smile. The other party seemed to have noticed Su Jiu’s gaze and, after scanning the surroundings, could guess what had happened. He then scratched his messy hair and shrugged:
“Sorry, I was busy arresting members of the K Organization.”
