Spirit Master Girl: Contracting with an SSS-Level School Beauty at the Start-Chapter 104: Second Grade VS Third Grade, The Abandoned Hostage
Chapter 104: Chapter 104: Second Grade VS Third Grade, The Abandoned Hostage
His gaze towards Xiao Zhan was filled with a fierce smirk.
Xiao Zhan’s thoughts whirled rapidly in his mind, the urgency in his eyes difficult to hide. He had a mere two seconds to think of the best rescue method.
But two seconds, how could that be enough!
Even if his CPU was burning out, he couldn’t figure it out!
Hostage threats have always been difficult since ancient times!
"Two...!"
Long Jiang’s voice urged again!
Besides the cold, fierce smirk on his face, there was also a hint of amusement.
Special forces?
The Ye Family?
So what!
Once in his, Long Jiang’s, hands, no one’s coming would matter!
Xiao Zhan became increasingly anxious. Under such circumstances, he couldn’t calm down at all, let alone come up with any useful methods.
He subconsciously looked towards the women; with their lips tightly sealed, though they didn’t cry out for help, their eyes pierced through the heart more than any vocal appeals for rescue.
Xiao Zhan panicked!
Long Jiang smirked wantonly, the more anxious Xiao Zhan was, the more likely he’d compromise.
Therefore, with this last count, Long Jiang deliberately elongated the tone, exerting powerful pressure on Xiao Zhan.
"Thr...ee...!"
Thud!
It was like the sound of a hammer!
Long Jiang’s final verdict rang out!
But Xiao Zhan had still not thought of a method!
Long Jiang sneered and without any more words, was about to kill the woman he held.
But at that moment, Xiao Zhan suddenly moved.
His eyes instantly settled, the urgency vanished, cold and ruthless, as if he had suddenly transformed into someone else!
At the same time, waves of Death Aura surged out from the Death Demon Scythe, quickly enveloping everyone!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Almost in the instant that darkness took over, the expected gunfire sounded.
In Xiao Zhan’s Perception, the women were shot in the head one after another, falling to the ground lifeless!
But he remained expressionless, not even bothering with these minions, the Demon Scythe in his hand suddenly gleamed coldly, aiming straight for Long Jiang’s life!
"Xiao Zhan, you really do have guts!"
Long Jiang was surprised by Xiao Zhan making such a decision. However, he didn’t kill the woman in his hand. Instead, he used her as a human shield, holding her in front of himself.
The Death Aura from Xiao Zhan made him unable to see the direction in the dark.
But he wasn’t panicked at all because his talent, Ear Listening, allowed him to discern position by sound, knowing exactly where Xiao Zhan was!
Right now, Xiao Zhan was lunging towards him from the side!
Long Jiang snorted coldly, well-prepared, as Spirit Manipulation Energy surged within him, a faint cyan glow appearing on his Artifact Spirit.
This was the prelude to his Spirit Manipulation Technique, Sky-breaking Slash!
The distance between the two men closed in a blink of an eye.
But at that moment, Long Jiang suddenly threw the woman he held like a sandbag towards Xiao Zhan. At the same time, he unleashed his Spirit Manipulation Technique, leaping out like a fish aiming to kill Xiao Zhan.
The long sword glowed with a cyan light, driving away the surrounding Death Aura, and directly tore open a patch of clarity!
It was indeed the Sky-breaking Slash!
The three of them were in a straight line; he intended to kill both the woman and Xiao Zhan together!
And as Xiao Zhan watched the woman suddenly thrown at him, a ripple passed through his eyes but was instantly consumed by indifference.
In his hand, the Demon Scythe was even more enshrouded in deathly energy than before!
Whoosh!
The Demon Scythe was swung with full force, the blood-red blade carrying a resolution to seize life, no sign of holding back!
This scene of surging momentum once again took Long Jiang aback, Xiao Zhan’s decision truly surprised him, and it didn’t seem like the style of the Special Service Bureau at all!
But at this moment, he couldn’t care less; once a Spirit Manipulation Technique is unleashed, it must taste blood!
The long blade was ruthless, showing no mercy as it slashed onto the woman’s body!
Blood splattered, the powerful Spirit Manipulation Energy surged, continuing its assault towards Xiao Zhan!
Xiao Zhan’s Death Demon Scythe swung out just the same, but because the woman was blocking the middle, his scythe, like Long Jiang’s, also struck the woman’s body. freēwēbnovel.com
Blood sprayed identically!
The woman let out a piercing scream, her eyes bulging in disbelief. She couldn’t see Xiao Zhan’s position, but her eyes were filled with disbelief!
How could she never have imagined that she would become the one abandoned by both men?
At this moment, more than the slipping away of her life, her heart was filled with utter despair!
Boom!
The Sky-breaking Slash collided with the Death Demon Scythe!
The formidable force blew the woman’s corpse away, as Spirit Manipulation Energy poured out wildly, causing Long Jiang to stagger back a step.
Xiao Zhan stepped back three steps and quickly hid within the Death Aura!
His slash was not a Spirit Manipulation Technique after all; using a Second Grade standard attack to counter a Third Grade powerful move, merely stepping back three steps, one cannot say Xiao Zhan is weak!
A trace of shock flashed in Long Jiang’s eyes; his Spirit Manipulation Technique had actually failed to harm Xiao Zhan and instead allowed him to block without injury?
What kind of monster is this guy?
He thought of his subordinates’ tragic deaths, his expression instantly becoming grim.
Playing possum to catch the tiger?
He let out a cold snort, such dog-blooded plots would definitely not happen to him!
And at this moment, Xiao Zhan once again burst forth from the side, his hands gripping the scythe, and mercilessly chopping down towards him in a Powerful Splitting Hua Mountain stance.
The Death Demon Scythe, being high quality and suitable for action, demands wide and imposing swings, storming the enemy’s defenses with explosive power to cause them to collapse!
Hence, with this chop, the whistling wind it brought up was a testament to its tremendous power!
Long Jiang, with Third Grade strength and an Artifact Spirit that was a broad-backed broadsword, similarly favored forceful and fierce moves. So facing Xiao Zhan’s attack, there was no reason for him to retreat!
Therefore, he swung up to meet it!
But, upon this contact, he immediately sensed something was awry!
The pressure of a formidable SSS-grade innate Talent made it difficult for his Artifact Spirit to unleash its ultimate power. Coupled with Xiao Zhan’s horrific standard attack strength, his own standard attacks simply couldn’t compete with Xiao Zhan’s!
Just this one move had him twisted in agony.
Xiao Zhan held the advantage and spared no efforts, delivering insane output. Leveraging strength and the Death Aura he disrupted, he gradually threw Long Jiang’s defensive stance into disarray.
At the same time, utilizing the subtle predictions of his Perception, he launched attacks at the gaps in Long Jiang’s defense!
Long Jiang, caught completely off guard, stumbled once and then continued to fall into disarray!
Completely exposed.
Seizing the opportunity, Xiao Zhan’s Demon Scythe cleaved across Long Jiang’s chest, and at this critical moment between life and death, Long Jiang had a swift reaction, retreating to the limit to draw back.
The scythe swept past, leaving behind a deep gash, and by fortune, spared him from being cleaved in two!
Long Jiang was furiously enraged!
The sharp pain in his chest brought a wave of fear; Xiao Zhan’s strength was too terrifying. He, a Third Grade Spirit Master, was getting bested by a Second Grade to such an extent, he nearly died outright!
He found it unbelievable!
Moreover, what he found most unbelievable was that Xiao Zhan, that guy, fucking didn’t have a shred of the Special Service Bureau’s style!
Quicker at killing than I am!
Truly motherfucking must be some backdoor entrant, right?
Not giving a damn about any rules?
A determined look flickered through his eyes; previously, he had been conserving strength, fearing that he might accidentally kill Xiao Zhan, which would inadvertently lead to the death of Ye Youlong as well.
But now, he realized how terribly wrong he was. He was simply unable to harm them - and even his own life was scarcely protected.
Damn it, to hell with the SSS-grade Artifact Spirit, it’s death either way!
"Big brother, I’ll find you a new one in the future, but for today, this little brother is out of options."
Long Jiang muttered to himself in his heart.
Then, his aura surged suddenly, the long blade in his hand glowing with a bright blue light. The listlessness that had been suppressed by the SSS-grade Artifact Spirit was instantly swept away!
It regained its original vitality and even more so!
Witnessing this scene, Xiao Zhan was shocked, "He’s actually burning the origin of the Artifact Spirit!"
