Am I a crispy college student? The whole internet says that I'm hard to kill!-Chapter 439: The Deadly Poison on the Fish Intestine Sword
Hearing Zhu Ling say this, Nightingale was momentarily stunned.
She didn’t understand why Zhu Ling wasn’t running, and what exactly did Zhu Ling mean by saying she would help her?
As Nightingale pondered in confusion, she saw Zhu Ling raise her hand, and then many golden lines appeared in the sky.
Upon seeing these golden lines, Nightingale was struck dumb, as she immediately realized these were the flight trajectories!
Nightingale focused her eyes and finally saw that what had been making her so bedraggled all this time was actually three flying knives.
However, these three flying knives were pitch black and flew at incredibly high speeds.
Therefore, from the beginning, Nightingale had been unable to detect the trace of these three flying knives.
Now that Zhu Ling had directly revealed the trajectories of these knives, it was as if the fight was out in the open, and Nightingale suddenly had the upper hand.
Standing opposite her, Zhong Dongshu’s expression immediately darkened.
"Good technique, to be able to deal with my flying knives like that, you’re really no ordinary person."
"If that’s the case, then none of you are leaving!"
By this time, Zhong Dongshu was certain that Liu Maiqiang was killed by them.
Because from the start, Zhu Ling had been too calm, not at all like the composure one would expect from someone her age.
It was as if in her eyes, his and Nightingale’s combat was nothing more than child’s play, posing no threat to her whatsoever!
Zhong Dongshu wanted to capture Wu Bin and Zhu Ling, but at this moment, Nightingale only wanted to deal with Zhong Dongshu.
Since Zhong Dongshu had already attacked her, that meant he was declaring war on The Ninth Institute.
Under these circumstances, they were not allies but enemies, so why should she show mercy?
Nightingale, wielding the Fish Intestine Sword, charged directly at Zhong Dongshu.
Zhong Dongshu’s eyes turned icy.
"You’re courting death!"
In the air, the three flying knives shot towards Nightingale from three different directions!
The speed of the three knives was extremely fast, and if it were an average person, they would undoubtedly be unable to dodge.
But Nightingale was battle-hardened. What kind of situations hadn’t she seen?
Her previous lack of advantage was because she couldn’t see these three knives.
Now that she could see them, would she still be suppressed by Zhong Dongshu?
Just as the three knives were about to pierce Wu Bin, Nightingale seemed to sense something and instantly twisted her body in mid-air, narrowly dodging the attacks of the three knives!
Wu Bin was shocked to witness this scene.
Such a difficult maneuver, even with feet planted firmly on the ground, would be hard to accomplish, let alone executing it mid-air!
What kind of monstrous muscle control ability did it take to do this?
Zhong Dongshu had not expected that none of the three flying knives would hit Nightingale, but he didn’t panic. As Nightingale rushed towards him with the Fish Intestine Sword, he reached out with his right hand and instantly caught her wrist!
Nightingale felt her wrist being held as if in a vice, with no chance of pulling free.
Zhong Dongshu smirked triumphantly.
"Kid, you’re still too green to go against me. Now that I’ve caught you, how are you going to run?"
Just as Zhong Dongshu caught Nightingale, three flying swords arrived directly from a distance.
Even with her amazing agility, Nightingale couldn’t possibly break free at this time.
Just when Zhong Dongshu thought Nightingale was as good as dead, he saw her suddenly loosen her grip, and the Fish Intestine Sword shifted from her right hand to her left instantly.
Then Nightingale, holding the Fish Intestine Sword, flicked it upward and slashed at Zhong Dongshu!
Zhong Dongshu hadn’t expected Nightingale to wield the sword with such finesse, and he hurriedly let go, frightened.
After all, he was getting on in years, and he had many magical treasures on his person. How could he afford to fight to the death with a young person?
What Zhong Dongshu didn’t realize was that his retreat had put him at a disadvantage.
Nightingale, now free from the bindings, first dodged the three flying swords aimed at her, then once again plunged the Fish Intestine Sword towards Zhong Dongshu!
Zhong Dongshu was startled, not expecting Nightingale to so swiftly launch another attack at him.
Only at this moment did Zhong Dongshu realize that Nightingale was a Supernatural Being with extraordinary agility!
One should know that among the many Supernatural Beings, only those with agility-type powers have excellent body coordination. They are not only quick in movement and attack speed but most importantly, they can completely control their bodies to achieve complex maneuvers that ordinary people can’t accomplish.
Nightingale had been evading the flying swords’ attacks time and time again with such maneuvers.
At this point, the flying swords posed no threat to her, as she regarded them as nothing.
"Wait! Don’t kill me!"
Zhong Dongshu wanted to use his magical treasure, but Nightingale didn’t give him the chance.
Every time Zhong Dongshu reached into his pocket to retrieve something, Nightingale’s Fish Intestine Sword was already there.
To avoid being stabbed, Zhong Dongshu could only hurriedly back away.
The situation changed in an instant.

Moments ago, Zhong Dongshu was overpowering Nightingale, but now that she had gotten close to him, he was being pursued and attacked by her.
Wu Bin found this turn of events quite incredible.
"I didn’t expect Nightingale to be so strong. No wonder she is The Ninth Institute’s top combatant."
Zhu Ling started to comment from the side.
"Her speed is adequate but she is still lacking in strength. If she encounters some rough and tough Martial Artists, Sister Nightingale would still suffer a big disadvantage."
"Moreover, this old guy she’s facing is not that impressive. A real Cultivator would have used all their magical treasures right from the start and would never let an opponent get close to them. Look at that old guy getting chased around by Sister Nightingale; he’s already lost."
Sure enough, Zhu Ling had barely finished speaking when Nightingale’s Fish Intestine Sword plunged directly into Zhong Dongshu’s back.
Feeling a sharp pain in his back, Zhong Dongshu instantly lost his balance and fell to the ground with a thud.
Oddly, the spot where Nightingale had struck was not fatal, but she did not pursue further.
Even though Zhong Dongshu didn’t know why Nightingale had suddenly stopped chasing him, he knew this was his only chance at survival!
Zhong Dongshu pulled out a yellow talisman, preparing to recite the incantation to counter Nightingale, when suddenly he felt his body becoming numb as if electrocuted!
"What have you done to me?"
Zhong Dongshu’s eyes widened in disbelief.
He found that he could no longer control his own body.
Most importantly, the intense pain originated from his back and the piercing, bone-corroding agony made Zhong Dongshu scream out loud.
Nightingale did nothing; she just stood there, watching silently.
This was her first time using the Fish Intestine Sword, so she needed to know what would happen when the poison on the sword took effect.
And Zhong Dongshu was undoubtedly a perfect subject for her observation.
