Chapter 441: Chapter 440: Who...!!! Who Delivered that Sword Strike? (Second Update)

"Leng Xue, out of the way!"

Han Chengxu let out a low shout as he drew his Treasure Sword from his waist, cutting through the air with a surge of Sword Qi that whirled and slashed towards the Fire Demon Lizard!

"Hiss!"

The Sword Qi sliced across, almost tearing through the Void.

"Zap!"

When the Sword Qi hit the body of the Fire Demon Lizard, it only produced a sharp clang, leaving behind merely a white mark on its body!

"What? How is this possible!" Han Chengxu’s face dramatically changed.

The Treasure Sword in his hand was a top-grade Spiritual Treasure!

It could slay an Eighth Rank Demon Beast in a single stroke!

But.

It didn’t inflict any damage on the Fire Demon Lizard?

"This is a Mutated Fire Demon Lizard! Its strength must be infinitely close to a Ninth Rank Demon Beast!" Han Tu’s aged face suddenly sank, his old eyes filled with solemnity.

"Bang!"

Enraged by the sword strike from Han Chengxu, the Mutated Fire Demon Lizard roared and lunged toward Han Tianchen, turning into a red blur as it smashed into Han Chengxu’s chest!

"Pff!"

Han Chengxu spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

His body was sent flying backwards.

"Young Master, be careful!" Han Tu shouted lowly, stepping forward like an arrow shot from a bow, breaking through the Void with a fierce punch!

"Bang!"

The Fire Demon Lizard was sent hurtling away, crashing heavily to the ground. As it got up, it glared viciously at Han Tu, its eyes brimming with savagery!

At the Void Refining Early Stage of his Cultivation, it sensed a hint of danger from Han Tu!

The next second.

Ignoring Han Chengxu, its gaze returned to Leng Xue.

Then, it lunged at Leng Xue again!

"Miss, be careful!"

Huo Yundong shouted explosively, quickly moving forward to push Leng Xue forcefully into a safe area.

It was at this moment.

The Mutated Fire Demon Lizard had already pounced, extending its claws sharp as blades, slashing horizontally!

"Zap!"

Huo Yundong, as a Cultivator in the Void Refining Early Stage, had three horrific gashes violently cut across his chest.

Each gash was so deep that the ribs in Huo Yundong’s chest were visible, and blood spurted out like a fountain!

But.

The Mutated Fire Demon Lizard did not continue to pursue and kill Huo Yundong.

Instead, its gaze shifted, staring fixatedly back at Leng Xue!

"Leng Xue!"

Han Chengxu wanted to move forward again, but was firmly caught by Han Tu.

"Young Master, are you mad! This is a Mutated Fire Demon Lizard, not something ordinary! Even I cannot guarantee I can kill it! If you rush in now, not only will you be unable to save Leng Xue, but you will also endanger yourself!" Han Tu said in a low voice, firmly holding back Han Chengxu.

"Don’t you see? Huo Yundong and I are both Cultivators in the Void Refining Early Stage, and even he is gravely injured! If you rush in now, not only will you fail to save Leng Xue, but your own life will also be at risk!"

Han Chengxu paused for a moment.

His brows furrowed tightly together.

He was weighing the situation in his heart!

Han Chengxu liked Leng Xue very much, liked her to the very core.

But.

Leng Xue did not like him!

No matter how attentive Han Chengxu was, Leng Xue wouldn’t even spare him a second glance.

This made Han Chengxu extremely frustrated!

Moreover, even if Han Chengxu were to charge in now, he might not be able to save Leng Xue, and he might even lose his life!

So.

Han Chengxu hesitated.

In the end, Han Chengxu chose to stand still and did not take action.

The others also simply watched with cold eyes!

After all, everyone had formed a team on the spot, and their goal was the interior of the Little Flame Mountain. They were not related to Leng Xue in any way. Why should they risk their lives to save her? Not to mention there was no guarantee they could!

Even, there was a good chance that they would be lost.

"Let’s go!" A woman said coldly.

"Indeed! This mutated Fire Demon Lizard seems to have taken a liking to Huo Lengxue. As long as we leave, everything should be fine!" Another young man likewise nodded in agreement.

"I’ve heard that after a Fire Demon Lizard feeds, it will rest for about a month! Huo Yundong is seriously injured, and that mutated Fire Demon Lizard has set its sights on Huo Lengxue! As long as we leave, it definitely won’t follow us. Their two bodies will be enough to satisfy its hunger!" The woman who first spoke maintained her very detached tone.

Her name was Gong Ling, also from Vermilion Bird City and hailing from a First Grade family.

"Let’s go!"

The group turned and prepared to leave.

Han Chengxu gave Huo Lengxue a deep look.

At that moment.

Huo Lengxue’s beautiful eyes also turned towards Han Chengxu, biting her red lips forcefully, her eyes filled with despair!

Han Chengxu’s gaze filled with tenderness.

The next second.

It turned detached, merciless, and ice-cold!

"Han Tu, let us depart!"

Han Chengxu turned and followed the others, catching up with them.

"The young master is wise!" Han Tu grinned, not sparing Huo Lengxue another glance, then turned to leave.

Huo Lengxue was in utter despair!

Her seventh uncle was critically injured and clearly unable to protect her any longer, and Han Chengxu, who had relentlessly pursued her, also abandoned her at this moment!

Huo Lengxue closed her lovely eyes, ready to face death!

At that instant.

That mutated Fire Demon Lizard seemed to understand that Huo Lengxue’s companions had abandoned her, it spat out a blood-red tongue and made a hissing sound, its blood-red eyes filled with a greedy glint!

"Hiss-hiss!"

The Fire Demon Lizard finally made its move, lunging towards Huo Lengxue like a Flood Dragon surging from the sea!

Lin Fan had been watching from the sidelines for quite a while.

Moreover.

It was Emperor Jade that informed Lin Fan of the Fire Demon Lizard’s presence here!

Within the Fire Demon Lizard’s body was a Demon Beast Inner Core of Eighth Rank, which, to Lin Fan, could enhance a portion of his strength.

However.

What Lin Fan did not expect was to witness the scene where Huo Lengxue was abandoned by her companions!

"Will you save her? Or will you act after the Fire Demon Lizard kills her and the old man?" Emperor Jade asked.

"Let’s save her! Besides, I have no idea how to navigate this Little Flame Mountain. Who would have thought that the deep layers of flame here could actually block Divine Sense! My Divine Sense can barely probe out five hundred meters and can’t extend further. These people might know the way out!" Lin Fan shook his head.

His willingness to act was not because Huo Lengxue was a beautiful woman.

If it were anyone else, Lin Fan would still have intervened!

On the other side, the mutated Fire Demon Lizard had already reached Huo Lengxue and opened its gaping maw as if it were about to swallow her whole!

Suddenly.

Without any warning!

"Pu!"

A golden flash of Sword Qi zipped through!

Immediately after.

The mutated Fire Demon Lizard, halfway through its pounce at Huo Lengxue, was bisected by the sword light!

The thick, stench-filled blood splattered over Huo Lengxue and made her delicate body tremble violently!

But.

She also opened her beautiful eyes and stared blankly at the carcass of the mutated Fire Demon Lizard before her!

"How... How is this possible!"

"Who...!!! Who unleashed that sword strike?"

The group that abandoned Huo Lengxue also witnessed this scene, each of them staring with eyes wide open, shocked beyond words.

"Such powerful Sword Qi! It actually managed to cut through the skin of the mutated Fire Demon Lizard! The person who made the move... must be at least a Cultivator of the Void Refining Middle Stage! Perhaps, even of the Void Refining Late Stage!" Han Tu said solemnly, his old face filled with wariness as he looked around.

Upon hearing this, everyone else had solemn expressions, appearing extremely grave.

If it was a Void Refining Late Stage Cultivator attacking them, they too would be in tremendous danger!

It was at this time.

A youth slowly approached from a distance, appearing in everyone’s field of vision... and this youth’s Cultivation was actually... at the Golden Core Late Stage?!!!
