The Legend of the Dragon King - Chapter 932

Chapter 932: A Human Shield

It was truly as quick as lightning . The strange blade in her hands directly slashed at Tang Wulin's shoulder .

Tang Wulin never expected her to have such speed that was akin to teleportation . Even if he had foreseen this, it was too late to dodge her attack now . At this moment, Tang Wulin made the only choice available to him .

He did not attempt to dodge, nor did he make any defensive movements . He scratched at his opponent's chest with his left hand . He swung his right hand brazenly, the Golden Dragon Nirvana Claw!

He gave up the Golden Dragon Spear . It dropped down and he caught it with his right foot .

Both sides suffered losses!

Tang Wulin was quite confident in his own defensive powers and recovery abilities . He would have to attack his enemy's weakness!

Mo Mei snorted with disdain . The long knife in her hands brought with it a chain of afterimages . Its movement was swift . Before Tang Wulin's hands could reach her, the blade had sliced into his shoulder mercilessly .

"Whoosh!" Blood spattered . Tang Wulin felt his left shoulder blade shattered by the terrifying great force . However, at this moment, his tenacious body revealed its qualities .

Although he could not use his soul skills, the defensive power of the Mountain Dragon King's Torso Bone was still effective . When his collarbone and shoulder blade was shattered, his bones retracted to forcefully clasp the battle knife of his enemy .

The battle knife emitted energy that was filled with despair and destruction . Since Tang Wulin had undergone the Demon Island's training, his body's destruction energy was much purer than the knife's . Hence, he was not overly affected by it .

His left hand did not manage to reach his enemy . Nevertheless, his right hand stayed on course as the Golden Dragon Nirvana Claw made its way toward its target .

Mo Mei was highly confident in her own speed . However, she had not expected Tang Wulin's claw attack to encompass an area of ten square meters . Five streaks of dark golden light flashed .

Mo Mei had already retreated more than twenty meters, but she was still hit by the golden light .

Just before she was hit, she suddenly brought her wings close to herself .

"Boom!"

Like a cannonball, Mo Mei shot toward the faraway rock wall which was a hundred meters away . One of her wings was torn away by the Golden Dragon Nirvana Claw and ended up floating in the air . Tang Wulin endured the intense pain from his shoulder . He tossed the Golden Dragon Spear with his right foot and it flew toward Mo Mei quick as lightning .

He had no chance to seize the opportunity . The instant his feet touched the ground, he turned around and began running . He sprinted toward the major at his fastest pace .

Mo Mei's speed was too quick for him . He could only protect the major while he was within a certain distance from the major .

A dark green light flashed . After Mo Mei crashed onto the rock wall, she slid down onto the ground just before the Golden Dragon Spear reached her . She had obviously suffered great damage as well . She did not merely lose a wing, there were also five deep cuts on her body .

Her wounds wriggled violently to close up, but the sharp edge of the Golden Dragon Nirvana Claw had torn her body savagely . Swathes of dark green fluid flowed down her body . When they dripped onto the ground, they immediately turned into a dense, dark green gas which spread everywhere .

"Human, your soul will suffer eternal torture in the deep abyss!" Mo Mei's voice sounded in Tang Wulin's head again . At this moment, Tang Wulin was already with the major, and he had removed the battle knife from his shoulder .

He sealed his blood vessels so as not to lose too much blood . Although Tang Wulin's complexion had turned pale, he did not show any signs of pain on his face .

Tenacity had always been his forte .

Golden light flashed and the Golden Dragon Spear was in his grasp . Tang Wulin took a deep breath as he mediated the blood essence vortex within him . The dense blood essence power surged wildly toward his wound . He carried the spear with his left hand while he pushed on his shoulder with his right hand to realign his bones .

The major stood behind him . She could hear the cracking sounds of his shifting bones . However, Tang Wulin did not even shudder once .

He had a will that was as tough as iron!

"Ah, it's completed . It's supposed to be completed . " the major searched frantically for something on herself .

At this very moment, the faraway Mo Mei suddenly moved . She swayed and instantly split into two . From an opening in the cave, countless dark green lights surged forth wildly and entered her body .

Her broken wing had regrown . With her terrifying speed, she appeared next to Tang Wulin in the blink of an eye . Her two split bodies squeezed him . Her split body's left half held another battle knife which had materialized out of thin air and slashed at Tang Wulin's shoulder again . Her right half suddenly paused in mid-air . The runes appeared once again . However, this time, they were not aimed at Tang Wulin, but at the major behind him .

Mo Mei was just too fast . Whether it was her speed, strength, or the terrifying curses, they shocked him greatly .

Everything happened in the blink of an eye . Tang Wulin did not even have time to think . He could only manage split-second decisions .

He did not bother about the Mo Mei which came at him from the left . Tang Wulin turned around instantly . He spread his arms and pulled the major into his embrace . Simultaneously, a mass of golden light erupted from his body .

"Roar!"

The Golden Dragon Roar!

The major felt a scorching shockwave erupting from Tang Wulin's body . She was immobilized by the deadly curse, but now she had regained her ability to move .

"Swish!" The sound of a sharp blade slicing into flesh was so near . However, she only felt a comforting sense of security and the rapid flickering scales .

"Boom!"

She felt as if the entire world was turned inside out . The major could faintly see Tang Wulin sweeping his Golden Dragon Spear horizontally to smash both Mo Meis till they reeled from the impact . The Golden Dragon's roar still resounded in the air, while at the same time, she saw a brilliant golden arm fall to the ground .

She instinctively shut her eyes with all her might . Simultaneously, she pressed on the instrument's button which she had finally found .

Everything around them was distorted . Only Mo Mei's shrill howl resounded in their ears . The instant they vanished, there were only two drops of tears that fell on the ground . They turned into water vapor as Mo Mei's terrifying attacks came in rapid succession .

His body shuddered . Tang Wulin slowly opened his eyes . His chest rose and fell slightly . He only managed to calm down after a few breaths .

He instinctively touched his left shoulder . It was still intact . However, the intense pain he felt lingered . It was too surreal!

He sighed inwardly . If he did not have to protect the major, he would still have some fight left in him . If he had stabbed Mo Mei with his Golden Dragon Spear, he would have the chance to turn the defeat into a victory . However, Mo Mei was truly powerful . He had no idea how the Blood God Army had developed such a monster for the sake of the assessment .

The glass cover opened, and all the fastening equipment on Tang Wulin's body was released . He flexed his shoulders and walked out from under the glass cover .

The major beside him had not woken up yet . Through the glass cover, he could see that her brows were tightly knitted together as if she was under some immense pain .

Suddenly, her body shook violently, then she calmed down . Was it a sign of her regaining consciousness?

Tang Wulin could determine from the major's aura that she should have a cultivation base of around five rings in terms of soul power alone . Although he did not know her origins, at her age of about twenty-six, she was exceedingly outstanding to have attained a soul power of such a rank .

Tang Wulin could not compare his comrades and himself to ordinary soul masters . After all, they were the current generation of the Shrek Seven Monsters . They stood at the pinnacle among their peers .

After a brief moment, the major slowly opened her eyes . Her eyes were not focused at first, but they quickly adjusted after a while . Through the glass cover, she saw Tang Wulin staring at her from the outside .

A complicated gaze flashed across the depths of her eyes . The major opened the glass cover and unfastened herself from the equipment at the same time .

When she took her first step out from underneath the glass cover, her knees buckled . Tang Wulin instinctively lurched forward and caught her in time .

He had not noticed it during the battle, but Tang Wulin clearly felt it now . The major's body temperature was slightly high, but she was in good shape and her body was supple . It was obviously the result of frequent exercise . She had neat, short hair and an attractive face .

"Thank you . " the major's beautiful face blushed as she struggled to stand up and break free of Tang Wulin's embrace .

Tang Wulin ventured, "My assessment…"

The major was stunned, but she quickly returned to normal . Even her expression regained its icy-cold trademark .

"You've passed . Come with me . " After she finished, she brought him out of the room which was used exclusively for assessments . She walked quickly . At the very least, she walked quicker than when they came as if she was running away from something .
