“Chī————!”
This was the sound of skin being pierced by a sharp blade.
Fang Li suddenly extended his hand, grabbing tightly onto the sword edge of the Greatsword that had pierced his shoulder, causing blood to flow from his palm.
In this situation, gripping the sword tightly, Laminamors, who was about to withdraw, suddenly froze.
This momentary pause directly led to Laminamors’ defeat.
“Flashing Scabbard – Swift Wind!”
A cold blade light suddenly appeared from Laminamors’ blind spot, like the elegant crescent moon, sweeping upward in a swift motion.
“Pū Chī————!”
This time it was the sound of muscles being cut by a sharp blade.
Laminamors’ figure was violently sent flying as if struck, and a large amount of blood sprayed into the surroundings.
It was the bloodshed from Laminamors’ hand.
There, on Laminamors’ arm, from the wrist, an entire hand was simultaneously severed. This caused a significant amount of blood to flow from the wound, dyeing the corridor floor red.
“Ugh…!” Laminamors finally let out a muffled groan.
Left with only the severed hand and while still tightly gripping the hilt of Lux that pierced Fang Li’s body, it gradually lost strength while dripping blood.
“Cough…!” Fang Li suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood and knelt on one knee on the ground.
“Fang-San!” Sylvia hurriedly supported Fang Li while kneeling down to his level as well.
At the same time, Valda also caught Laminamors, who was thrown back. Placing a hand on Laminamors’ back and looking at the completely severed arm, a chill ran through Valda’s heart.
“To think it would come to this…”
You see, it was precisely because of the unknown ability of Fang Li that Laminamors and Valda chose to come when Fang Li’s Prana was almost depleted. They even lured Sylvia out to restrain Fang Li and confirm their suspicions.
As a result, the suspicions were confirmed, proving that the body Valda currently occupied was indeed Sylvia’s teacher. The restraint was also successful, causing Fang Li to reveal a fatal flaw in a split second.
However, in the end, did it have to come to this?
“…I Underestimated him,” Laminamors, holding his severed arm, smiled bitterly and spoke softly. “I never thought that a mere student could be so ruthless to himself. You were right; this guy is indeed too dangerous.”
“…What should we do?” Valda calmly said. “Do we need to eliminate him here?”
“It would be best if we could. However, you’ve seen it; this person is like a ferocious beast. The more injured he is, the more dangerous he becomes. Charging at him like this, unless one of us is willing to risk our lives, it’s not worth it.” Laminamors, without the slightest hesitation, continued, “Anyway, what we wanted to confirm has yielded results. The world-class Diva is indeed related to the body you occupy. Though that guy knows a lot, he doesn’t seem to be aware of our plan. He’s not an immediate threat. Let’s retreat for now.”
“…Understood.” Valda remained silent for a while and then agreed.
Laminamors raised his head and looked deeply at Fang Li, who was kneeling on the ground. It seemed as though he intended to etch him into his memory.
Just now, if Laminamors hadn’t reacted in time and if he hadn’t lifted his hand to block Fang Li’s slash, the one severed wouldn’t have been a hand but Laminamors’ head.
Of course, that wasn’t the point.
The point was that even though Laminamors had converted his entire Prana into defensive power just now, he still lost his hand.
“It was just an ordinary dagger and with my Prana, theoretically, even if I were slashed, nothing should have happened. But the result is that my hand got severed.”
Therefore, Laminamors admitted that he had been careless.
“He’s truly a dangerous guy. I hope you won’t become our enemy.” Leaving behind these words, Laminamors retreated slowly with Valda.
“Wait!” Sylvia shouted, “Who are you people?!”
It wasn’t Laminamors who answered Sylvia’s question, but Valda.
“We are people unrelated to you,” Valda unemotionally said, “So, it would be in your best interest if you do not get involved with us, little girl.”
Leaving behind these words, Laminamors and Valda suddenly disappeared on the spot, leaving no trace of their presence.
This included the Lux that was stuck in Fang Li’s shoulder and the severed hand tightly gripping the hilt.
It seemed that Valda had once again used her ability, using a form of mind/energy interference to make others mistakenly believe that they had disappeared into thin air.
In the end, the entire corridor was left with only Fang Li and Sylvia, along with a pool of blood.
“Wait! Wait! Ursula!” Sylvia couldn’t help but stand up and shout as she saw them disappear.
Although she didn’t know what was going on, the person she had been searching for in her dreams was right in front of her. Sylvia couldn’t lose her again now that she had seen her.
“Cough, Cough…” Fang Li was only coughing up blood, and his body was completely dyed red with blood.
“Fang-San!” But Sylvia finally chose not to chase after them, looking at Fang Li’s bloodied appearance. She quickly went to support him.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine.” Fang Li gritted his teeth, swallowing back the blood that surged into his throat.
After all, Laminamors’ weapon was a type with an extremely wide sword edge. Although the hit was in the shoulder, it was already quite close to the heart, precisely on the left side of Fang Li’s chest.
Such injuries were naturally not light.
So, Fang Li took out a Healing Jewel and placed it in front of him.
“Zhēng————!”
A warm radiance suddenly burst from the Jewel, illuminating Fang Li’s body.
Under that radiance, Fang Li’s visible wounds gradually healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, surprising even Sylvia.
About a minute later, the radiance of the Healing Jewel dimmed.
The injuries in front of Fang Li had completely disappeared.
However, encountering the attacks of Laminamors and Valda in a state where Prana was almost completely depleted, Fang Li’s exhaustion couldn’t be concealed.
At this moment, Fang Li’s breathing became extremely rapid, and even his complexion turned pale.
“Fang-San.” Sylvia couldn’t help but say, “Are you really okay?”
“I am really okay, I’m just tired.” Fang Li’s voice was a bit weak but he still said, “Could you find a place for me to rest?”
“Sure.” Sylvia immediately agreed.
To be honest, Sylvia didn’t fully understand the current situation.
But there was one thing Sylvia was certain of.
That was, without Fang Li’s protection, she definitely wouldn’t be in such perfect condition now.
“Am I being protected?” Sylvia couldn’t help but feel a bit unwilling when she thought of this.
Even so, there were still many questions lingering in her mind.
