“Hum…”
The pure white energy sword emitted a faint hum, causing the flowing light to glitter on its surface, looking quite dazzling.
However, at this moment, the tip of this dazzling light sword was frozen at Amagiri Ayato’s throat, leaving him motionless and completely unable to move.
Fang Li held Bo Xie, pointing it at the throat of the still figure of Amagiri Ayato on the ground, looking down at the frozen young man, muttering to himself.
“Indeed, I can still win even if you’re in this state…”
Frankly speaking, in terms of strength, the difference between Fang Li and Amagiri Ayato was not much.
However, unlike Amagiri Ayato, who excelled in the authentic Sword Technique, Fang Li mastered the Assassination Technique, which proved more effective in practical combat.
So, even if the battle was evenly matched, in unexpected situations, relying on the Nanaya Assassination Technique, it wasn’t strange for Fang Li to suddenly secure victory.
Just like now.
“Ayato!”
Seeing Amagiri Ayato held hostage by Fang Li, Sasamiya Saya hastily raised the cannon-shaped Lux assembled on her body, pointing its barrel forward.
However, just as Sasamiya Saya was preparing to make a move, a figure suddenly appeared at her side.
“Your opponent is me!”
Uttering these words, Cecily directly rushed forward, delivering a powerful palm strike towards the body of Sasamiya Saya, who was still on the ground.
“Bang————!”
Amidst the stifling sound, Cecily’s palm strike directly landed on the cannon body, stirring up a gust of wind.
In a critical moment, Sasamiya Saya timely lifted one side of the cannon, blocking Cecily’s palm strike.
“You…!” Sasamiya Saya couldn’t help but glare at Cecily.
“Haha!” Cecily, however, laughed heartily and said, “It’s been a while since I had a close combat. Why don’t you accompany me for a bit!”
With these words, Cecily suddenly assumed a stance, like a seasoned martial artist and she swiftly advanced, closing in on Sasamiya Saya.
Sasamiya Saya could only withdraw and, in turn, aimed the cannon at Cecily.
Unfortunately, since Cecily had already closed in, Sasamiya Saya’s cannon shots couldn’t be smoothly fired.
At this moment, Cecily used a kick to kick away the cannon barrel aimed at her, then unleashed a continuous series of palm strikes and punches towards Sasamiya Saya.
Sasamiya Saya struggled to dodge the incoming strikes, momentarily falling into a completely disadvantaged position.
“Saya!”
Seeing this scene, Amagiri Ayato couldn’t help but want to stand up.
However, the tip of Bo Xie’s sword was slightly moved forward, sticking to Amagiri Ayato’s throat, preventing him from moving at all.
“Be honest and stay put.” Fang Li said to Amagiri Ayato, “Our duel is not over yet.”
“What do you mean?” Amagiri Ayato raised his hea and looked at Fang Li, and whispered, “With things as they are, isn’t it already over?”
Now with a vital point pointed at by someone else, Amagiri Ayato had no second choice but to surrender.
However, Fang Li did not make such a demand. He did not even casually cut off Amagiri Ayato’s emblem, leaving Amagiri Ayato truly puzzled.
To this, Fang Li calmly said, “There is no other way, to be honest with you, I also wanted to settle it like this, but the conditions don’t allow for such an easy thing.”
“The conditions don’t allow?” Amagiri Ayato was completely baffled.
What’s going on here?
However, Fang Li still paid no attention to Amagiri Ayato. Just as if confirming the time, he spoke in a low voice.
“Almost…”
As his words fell…
“Hum——!”
Suddenly, around Amagiri Ayato’s body, mana rapidly gathered, emitting a dazzling light.
In that light, geometric patterns of purple rotation emerged, covering the surroundings of Amagiri Ayato.
Among them, illusionary chains suddenly appeared, entwining around Amagiri Ayato’s body one by one.
“Wuah——!”
Amagiri Ayato immediately let out a muffled cry, and the Prana throughout his entire body began to deplete.
“Now is the time!” A bright glow flashed in Fang Li’s eyes as he saw this scene.
To complete his Side Quest, and even the Main Quest, Fang Li needed to help Amagiri Ayato lift the seal on his body.
This was not a particularly difficult task.
Perhaps, to others, removing the seal on Amagiri Ayato’s body seemed extremely challenging.
However, for Fang Li, lifting Amagiri Ayato’s seal was genuinely a simple matter.
As long as he used the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception to see the Death Lines of the seal within Amagiri Ayato’s body, Fang Li could easily break the seal and restore all of Amagiri Ayato’s power.
However, due to various circumstances, Fang Li had not found an opportunity to help Amagiri Ayato remove the seal, and it had been delayed until now.
Now, because Fang Li wanted to complete the second Side Quest, he absolutely couldn’t use the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception during the match.
Therefore, to remove the seal on Amagiri Ayato’s body, Fang Li had to take a more direct approach.
“Let’s see what you can do, Bo Xie!”
The Prana on Fang Li’s body began to flicker as he muttered.
“Clang——!”
On the pure white Urm Manadyte, a dazzling light also blossomed.
Bo Xie’s ability could alter the form of non-living entities and manipulate them.
This ability could even affect Cecily’s lightning and Ardi’s defensive barriers.
So, Fang Li had reason to believe that even the power of the seal on Amagiri Ayato’s body, as long as Bo Xie came into contact with it, could be effective.
Now was the time to verify this.
“Break it! Bo Xie!”
Fang Li suddenly thrust the Ogre Lux in his hand, letting the sword tip pierce Amagiri Ayato’s throat.
There, a chain was entwined around him.
“Hum——!”
The pure white sword body suddenly trembled.
Above, a rich glow began to cover the chains in front of Amagiri Ayato’s throat, even spreading to his entire body, enveloping all those chains in brilliance.
Then, those chains came to a halt.
“Bang——!”
In the crisp sound, one chain after another broke apart.
“Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang——!”
With each clear sound, the chains around Amagiri Ayato’s body shattered one by one, turning into pure mana, and dissipating into the air.
“Bang——!”
In the final loud sound, each geometric pattern around Amagiri Ayato’s body broke apart.
Shortly afterward, an unprecedented powerful surge of Prana erupted straight towards the ceiling from Amagiri Ayato’s body.
At the same time, the imposing manner of Amagiri Ayato’s body also changed.
It became filled with an oppressive force.
