NFBE Chapter 465 Venomous Bee
Chapter 465 Venomous Bee
After wiping out the first wave of assassins in one go, Di Beizun and Sikong Jin continued their journey without slacking off. It wasn't until nearly four in the morning that they finally found a dilapidated, uninhabited house in the dense forest ahead. By then, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, so the two had no choice but to dismount and take shelter from the rain, and also to rest for a while.
"This rain is really heavy. I wonder if it will stop by dawn."
Sikong Jin deftly patted the rainwater off her clothes, then darted to the dilapidated doorway and under the eaves. She frowned as she looked at the rain curtain falling continuously from the sky. Under her black veil and hat, her small face looked somewhat gloomy.
Emperor Beizun, who was standing to the side, came forward and looked calmly at the rain in front of him.
"Even if we don't stop, we'll probably have to keep going and can't afford to be delayed."
Sikong Jin added with a sigh, "The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and there are occasional flashes of thunder and lightning in the sky."
"If anything happens in the capital, Changfeng and the others will inform me immediately, so don't worry."
Di Beizun didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only say this, gazing at the dark sky outside, "Besides, the journey back might not be peaceful either, you..."
Before Di Beizun could finish speaking, his words came to an abrupt halt. A sharp, cold glint suddenly appeared in his deep eyes as he stared intently and coldly at a certain direction in the rain. Sikong Jin also sensed something was wrong. A chilling killing intent swept over from the front, carrying a frigid chill that sent shivers down one's spine!
Instinctively, he gripped the Moon Soul tightly in his hand and turned to look at Di Beizun. Di Beizun's cold and beautiful face, hidden in a black cloak, was instantly filled with murderous intent. The surrounding air was instantly frosted and seemed to freeze. Reflecting the constantly flashing lightning, a dense and oppressive aura spread over in an instant!
"careful!"
Sikong Jin's icy voice came from beside her ear. Almost instantly, the two of them quickly floated away behind her. Sikong Jin felt a strong smell of blood and a chilling aura rush towards her. The coldness in the air quickly condensed. Sikong Jin swiftly drew the Moon Soul from her sleeve and intercepted the oncoming heat wave!
'boom--'
A gust of cold wind swept past, followed by a sudden and violent tremor in the ground. Sikong Jin lightly touched the ground with her toes and leaped up, instantly reaching the rooftop. The broken walls beside her had already collapsed.
By the flickering light of day, they noticed a huge black shadow had appeared on the ground in front of them. Sikong Jin almost instinctively looked up and saw that a giant python was coiled above them!
Sikong Jin shuddered. The giant python was staring at them, its bloodthirsty eyes filled with a chilling aura. Before they could react, it pounced again with such speed that even Sikong Jin was startled!
A gust of wind swept by the snake's tail, bringing with it a torrent of rain!
‘Boom! ’
The instant Sikong Jin leaped away, the rooftop she had just stood on was instantly leveled, a deafening roar echoing through the air, and the horse beside her neighed in fright.
As the oppressive waves crashed in, Sikong Jin looked on with a somewhat grave expression.
"How about it?"
Emperor Beizun also flew over almost instantly and asked with concern.
Sikong Jin shook her head, gripped the Moon Soul tightly in her hand, and stared coldly at the giant python in front of her. "It should be with that group from before. We need to finish this quickly!"
With a whistle, the giant python pounced like lightning, a stench wafting through the air and a fierce wind rising up. Its nimble tail swept across the ground, and in the blink of an eye, the dilapidated house in front of it collapsed, splashing up countless mud and water!
Sikong Jin had just taken a step back when the giant python charged forward, its stench making Sikong Jin want to vomit.
'Ding! '
"Keep it steady and coordinate with me!"
Di Beizun's tall figure transformed into a black afterimage, darting out like a ghost. A black, magnificent, cold light swept across the sky, and the falling rain around him was forced to a standstill by the sharp blade. At the same moment, a strong gust of cold wind blew, and he had already unleashed a strange palm strike at the giant python!
'Roar! '
A loud roar came from the giant python, which was enraged after being struck by Di Beizun's palm. Its tail swept away the leaves like a cold wind and it pounced on Di Beizun with astonishing speed!
However, Di Beizun was even faster. With a move called "Wind-Stepping Backwards," a black, cold light flashed past, piercing through the serpent's sweeping tail. A foul stench assaulted her nostrils, making Sikong Jin almost want to vomit. But she didn't have time to feel much. With a light touch of her toes, her black figure transformed into a ghostly afterimage. A sharp sword light pierced through the cold rain, the sword light like a pillar of light falling from the sky, stabbing towards the giant python with lightning speed!
'Sizzle—'
With two sharp whooshing sounds, the sound of weapons piercing flesh was exceptionally clear. Suddenly, a heavy breathing sound came from the sky. The severed snake tail, oozing blood, was violently swung and swept, and the flying blood mixed with the falling rain splashed wildly.
Sikong Jin felt waves of heat shooting towards her, and even through her veil, she could feel the touch on her face. The smell of blood in her nose grew stronger. She held her breath and, without taking a breath, pulled out the Moon Soul that had disappeared into the snake's body. At the same time, Di Beizun had already unleashed a powerful palm strike!
A gust of wind swept by, followed by a tremor in the ground. The giant python's body was shattered into pieces and crashed heavily onto the ground in front of it.
"Come on!"
Before Sikong Jin could even catch her breath, Di Beizun's figure had already darted over, lifted her up with one hand, and nimbly mounted a horse. The two of them quickly sped off into the rainy night ahead, their speed astonishing.
Sure enough, they had barely left when countless sharp arrows pierced through from behind, accompanied by a buzzing sound!
Poisonous bees!
Sikong Jin subconsciously turned her head to look at the swarm of poisonous bees chasing after her. The black swarm froze her in fright, and she almost fell off her horse. Fortunately, Di Beizun caught her waist in time!
"Damn it, they're poisonous bees! Extremely venomous creatures! They're too fast, they're about to catch up, I'd better use my lightness skill to escape quickly!"
Beneath the black veil and bamboo hat, Sikong Jin saw that the poisonous bees behind her were about to catch up. She trembled and quickly spoke up.
"Okay, let's get out of here!"
After Emperor Beizun uttered these words, the two of them quickly leaped up and used their lightness skills to rush forward.
