334: Fight between snake and dog
Not only Xun An Cai but also the Clan Chief couldn’t understand why such a great opportunity should be given to someone else.
In their mindset, there was no such thing as humility or abdication; everything had to be fought for, especially a blessing, which was a tremendous boon.
Xu Sanyan nodded, “Yes, give it to her, and we’ll do it as soon as we get back.”
The Clan Chief pondered for a long time before slowly nodding, “Alright.”
Regardless, Xun An Cai was also a member of the Dog Clan; giving her a blessing wouldn’t be a loss.
Xun An Cai blinked, looking at Xu Sanyan with a touched expression. If not for the dangers lurking here, she would have thanked him properly.
“Hold on tight!”
The Clan Chief instructed, and Xu Sanyan obediently grabbed her thick arm.
The Clan Chief leaped, suddenly lunging into the depths of the forest with the speed of a gale. Even with Xu Sanyan, there was no noticeable impact on her speed.
“Woof~!”
The Six-Headed Dog had somehow snuck into the depths of the dense forest and was now barking furiously at an old tree.
The man in the tree was startled; he had no idea when this dog had appeared beneath him.
Not only had he not noticed, but dozens of Snake Clan members hidden around them also hadn’t noticed.
“There!”
The Clan Chief’s pupils constricted, and her thick legs suddenly exerted force, launching her out like an arrow from a bowstring.
“Retreat!”
The man knew he was no match for her. He had only undergone five blessings, while the Dog Clan Chief had already undergone six. The difference between them was more than just a little.
The man had never intended to keep the Dog Clan Chief there; his goal was merely to entangle them and buy time for reinforcements.
“Woof!”
Seeing the man about to escape, the Six-Headed Dog lunged forward, its ferocious fangs bared. Its six heads, like vicious wolves, bit fiercely at the man’s thigh.
Whoosh—
The man’s figure was extremely agile. He turned slightly, dodging the Six-Headed Dog, and his body coiled around the tree like a nimble snake.
“It’s up to you!”
The Clan Chief roared, flinging Xu Sanyan out like a projectile.
Because she couldn’t keep up with the speed of the Snake Clan members, she could only resort to this tactic.
At this moment, Xu Sanyan truly transformed into a sharp blade, cutting through the air. The fierce wind lashed at his face, making it almost impossible for him to open his eyes.
He had never imagined he could be used in such a way.
But it had to be said, although the Move was not very elegant, the effect was good. He rapidly approached the Snake Clan man.
“What is that?!”
The man was startled, seeing a dark, nondescript object flying towards him.
“Seeking death!” He had already recognized it as a person. What was the difference between attacking in this manner and seeking death?
The man flipped his wrist, and a small, patterned snake, about an inch long, appeared in his hand. With a flick of his arm, the small snake went straight to collide with him.
Xu Sanyan remained unfazed. With a thought, two sharp spikes, one large and one small, materialized in the Void Realm. The large spike shot towards the man, and the small one towards the patterned snake.
“Bang!”
First, there was a muffled thud. The small snake collided with Xu Sanyan’s shoulder and turned into a puddle of flesh, leaving only a small bloodstain on his clothes.
The small snake had died in mid-air, its Divine Soul dissipating. The Divine Soul of such a beast was weak; even a small spike was enough to kill it.
“Ah!!”
A sudden scream came from the man. In an instant, he felt as if countless needles were piercing his brain, like a large hand was prying open his skull and extracting his brain matter. The intense pain made him lose control of his body, and he fell heavily to the ground.
The Six-Headed Dog seized the opportunity and bit fiercely into the man’s neck. Crimson blood stained the ground, and the screams ceased.
Meanwhile, Xu Sanyan was still flying in mid-air, but his momentum had weakened, and he began to slowly descend.
He seized an opportunity, grabbed a tree branch, and swung his body twice in mid-air to dissipate the force, landing steadily on the ground.
All of this took a long time to describe, but it happened in a mere instant. The Snake Clan members hidden in the shadows hadn’t even had time to react before their leader was dead.
The Six-Headed Dog looked up, a large piece of torn flesh in its mouth. It tilted its head and swallowed it whole. Looking at the man on the ground, his neck had been gnawed to a bloody pulp, and he had long since lost his breath.
“Quick, retreat!”
The Snake Clan members in the shadows were horrified. They had no idea how their leader had died; it was as if he had suddenly fallen from the tree and died from the fall.
Not far away,
Xu Sanyan leaned on a tree trunk and stood up, cold sweat beading on his forehead. His originally rosy complexion had turned pale. After using the Lu Family Refining Spirit Strength twice in a row, his Soul Power had been depleted by seventy percent.
He absolutely couldn’t use it again during this period, or it would easily damage his Origin.
“How are you?”
The Clan Chief came to his side and asked, her gaze sweeping over the man’s corpse, then looking at Xu Sanyan. She subconsciously pursed her lips, her killing intent growing stronger in her heart.
If he could kill others with this method, he could use the same method to kill her!
The Clan Chief silently clenched her fists, a struggle appearing in her mind. In the end, she slowly released her grip.
Wait a little longer…
She comforted herself, telling herself it wasn’t the right time yet, and it wouldn’t be too late to act after destroying the Snake Clan.
Xu Sanyan’s eyes lifted, and he silently breathed a sigh of relief. The sharp spikes condensed in the Void Realm slowly dissipated, returning to his body.
If he risked his life, he could use the Lu Family Refining Spirit Strength one more time.
The two of them harbored their own schemes, neither trusting the other.
Returning to the group, Xun An Cai saw Xu Sanyan’s pale face and hurried forward to support him, her tone slightly anxious, “How are you?”
Xu Sanyan shook his head slightly, already too exhausted to speak.
Xun An Cai helped him onto the Four-Headed Dog, letting him ride the dog.
Xu Sanyan lay on the Four-Headed Dog, which walked very steadily, without much jolting.
Although the Snake Clan leader was dead, the snake groups surrounding them had not dispersed. Occasional whistles from the shadows indicated that the Snake Clan members had not completely retreated.
“You go first, I’ll cover the rear!”
The Clan Chief, along with several Clan members who had undergone four blessings, came to the very back. Xun Yang led the way in front with powder.
After the Snake Clan leader died, no one could entangle the Clan Chief. As long as she discovered them, it would be difficult for those Snake Clan members to escape.
Xu Sanyan rubbed his temples to relieve his headache, watching the decreasing number of venomous snakes on both sides, realizing that there should be no more danger on this trip.
After a while, the Clan Chief returned with her people, a few bloodstains on her face, which appeared to be the enemy’s.
Xu Sanyan looked at the Snake Clan members’ long legs, silently pondering. Once Xun An Cai obtained the blessing, she would be the only five-blessing strong practitioner within the Dog Clan.
Next time, he would eliminate the Snake Clan, then kill the Clan Chief. Then…
Could Xun An Cai successfully ascend to the position of Clan Chief?
After thinking about it, Xu Sanyan shook his head inwardly. It shouldn’t be that simple.
Moreover, after this incident, the Dog Clan and the Snake Clan would be in full-scale war. Perhaps by the time he returned next, the Snake Clan would already be gone.
As for the Dog Clan losing, that should be impossible.
Comparing the overall strength of the Dog Clan,
It was known that the Snake Clan had one seven-blessing Clan Chief and two five-blessing leaders, so there wouldn’t be too many four-blessing individuals.
Otherwise, their overall strength would far exceed the Dog Clan’s, and the Dog Clan would have been annihilated long ago.
And after these two battles, the Snake Clan’s overall strength directly decreased by thirty percent.
Two five-blessing strong practitioners died, along with the loss of dozens of three-blessing core combatants, which could be described as a severe blow to their Origin Qi.
Even if the Snake Clan leader was a seven-blessing strong practitioner, he could not contend against the entire Dog Clan.
Therefore, the next phase would still be the Dog Clan’s offensive, and the Snake Clan could only passively defend.
