“Take it out, so I can take a look.” Li Man Man had one hand on her waist, the other stretched out to Su Luo demandingly.
Su Luo glanced at Li Man Man then turned and walked away.
“Hey, you stop right there!” Li Man Man exclaimed. She said to Su Luo, “What is this attitude?! I’m just asking you to take out the diamond tablet to see. What’s the big deal about it?”
"The City Lord's diamond tablet, if this isn’t that big of a deal, then what is a big deal?" Su Luo played with the diamond tablet, her eyes half-squinted cunningly, like a fox, saying, "Such a precious treasure, not asking you to kneel down to receive it is already letting you off lightly."
“You!” Li Man Man huffed and glared at Su Luo, and then she turned to leave! She couldn’t even take a look at it! Anyways, it didn’t matter because it was all fake! Fake!
Ignoring Li Man Man, Su Luo was just as unbothered as before. This detachment earned her countless thumbs ups from Senior Brother Luo Qing.
And so, they kept travelling for the next three days.
Senior Brother Luo Qing was squinting at the map and frowning.
"Five kilometers ahead, we will enter the Netherworld White Tigers’ territory. Not only is the Netherworld White Tiger King’s strength formidable, they are also numerous. We only have five, uh, four people, so they will be quite difficult to deal with." The deputy leader's eyes flashed with worry. "But this is the only way to pass through this area by the cliffs of the Eastern Region, so we cannot go around it. Everyone should tread as lightly as possible. We must absolutely not disturb them, so that they won’t bother us.”
Li Man Man glared at Su Luo and declared, “The rest of us will be okay; she is the only one who is weak and slow, so there’s a good chance she’ll get caught by the Netherworld White Tigers, she might even bring harm to the rest of the group. If we had known this earlier, we should’ve just left her back inside the city."
And so, after discussing amongst themselves, Tian Mang was assigned to protect Su Luo while the other three were left to fend for themselves.
The mountains were dark.
Into the darkness they went.
The next hundred miles all belonged to the Netherworld White Tigers.
“Roar --”
An earth-shattering roar echoed from the forest, scattering all the birds and making the wild animals scurry away.
Senior Brother Luo Qing became pale, and his expression soured: “This isn’t good, we’re about to run into a group of Netherworld White Tigers!”
Usually, most Netherworld White Tigers hunted alone, and it was very rare that they would gather in a group like today. It was just their poor luck.
“Run quickly! Run run run!” Senior Brother Luo Qing cried out, motioning for the team to flee.
Upon facing such a large foe, the entire group became extremely tense.
As everyone went on ahead, Su Luo smirked and headed instead towards the group of Netherworld White Tigers!
There were seven Netherworld White Tigers!
Senior Brother Luo Qing sprinted along, and had covered 5 1 in no time, but Li Man Man suddenly yelled.
“This is bad! We lost that stupid girl!” Li Man Man looked left and right but couldn’t find Su Luo, so she became very anxious.
Senior Brother Luo Qing also looked around, and indeed, she was gone!
All three of them turned their attention to Tian Mang, who uncomfortable fidgeted, “I remember clearly taking her…”
Everyone looked at Tian Mang’s right hand---
At that moment, he really did have Su Luo on his back!
“You!” Li Man Man exclaimed. She angrily pointed at Tiang Mang, but no words came out. Then, she turned and kept on running!
Su Luo's death would not be a pity, but if she died, Brother Luo would submit to Fairy Wu You. This could absolutely not happen.
Li Man Man ran fast, faster than when the Netherworld White Tigers chased her.
Senior Brother Luo Qing caught up with Li Man Man in the blink of an eye, and remembering what Senior Brother Luo had cautioned him about, only said: “I’m also leaving, you all are on your own!”
Then, he flew away in pursuit.
Returning would most likely mean a death sentence. He couldn’t force his brothers and sisters to make this decision, so he could only choose for himself.
Xu Yin quietly followed Senior Brother Luo Qing.
Tian Mang angrily stared at the burden on his back. It would be really troublesome to run quickly with this.
But when he caught up, he saw all the others standing stupefied. Scratching his head, Tian Mang asked: “What’s with you all, were you struck by lightning? Why are you all standing here like a bunch of logs? Why don’t you go up and fight?”
Li Man Man turned to look at Tian Mang, her eyes still consumed with disbelief, and then she quietly turned back to stare at Su Luo.
She pointed a finger towards Su Luo and said nothing more.
Su Luo was running a one-man show.
Light as the wind, she flew like a butterfly amongst the Netherworld White Tigers, her gleaming afterimage trailing behind her. She was so fast that she could not be seen by the naked eye.
The Cheng Ying Sword in hand, she swung in a wide arc at the Netherworld White Tigers. They seemed to be standing there waiting to be slaughtered, and their bodies soon erupted with blood everywhere.
Su Luo saw the blood flying, so she dodged, and rolled out of the way towards the next Netherworld White Tiger. Each Tiger she reached simply fell to the ground, eyes still wide open in shock.
Su Luo stood up and dodged the attack of the second Netherworld White Tiger. At the same time, she turned around mid-air, and with the Cheng Ying Sword in hand, stabbed the still-roaring third Tiger!
The Cheng Ying Sword was so sharp, it sliced the Netherworld White Tiger’s body cleanly in half from the throat to the heart!
The poor third Netherworld White Tiger, it couldn’t even roar before it was slain…
At the same time, Su Luo's petite and slender body again turned mid-air, dodging the attack of the second Netherworld White Tiger before rushing to the fourth.
Just as the fourth Netherworld White Tiger attacked Su Luo, she teleported away and disappeared in an instant. And so, the poor fourth and second Netherworld White Tigers--
"Boom!!!"
The loud noise deafened the two Netherworld White Tigers; their heads were practically being smashed together.
As they were still stunned and dizzy, Su Luo had already rushed over and cut down the other two tigers with her Cheng Ying Sword!
There were only four Netherworld White Tigers left!
But Su Luo was becoming more excited.
She burst straight forward!
The four Netherworld White Tigers also rushed towards Su Luo angrily!
Just a short distance away, Su Luo disappeared again. When she reappeared, her back was pressed to the ground, and she was lying in ambush underneath one of the Netherworld White Tigers.
"Rip--"
As the Cheng Ying Sword couldn't be used, Su Luo had already switched to the Yan Hua dagger.
Yan Hua's dagger was infused with the raging fire of the Fallen Red Lotus. These two together as one made an extremely powerful combination. Su Luo brutally cut through the chest all the way to the Netherworld White Tiger’s abdomen!
