Ferocious beast riot

Lu Xiansen?

Ning Yue searched through his memories...

Suddenly, he noticed something off about the boy's expression. Malice lurked beneath his broad smile.

Having merged the memories of two lives, he was more perceptive than most.

He frowned despite himself and took two steps back.

He scanned him with the Eye of Heaven Observation.

[Huang Liang, Second Rank]

His surname wasn't Lu.

"Who are you?"

As Ning Yue asked, his expression grew more wary, and he took another two steps back.

"Hehe, did you notice?"

Lu Xiansen (Huang Liang) gave a strange laugh. His once delicate face suddenly turned vicious, his thin lips becoming a gaping, blood-red maw.

He stepped forward twice, then leaped after Ning Yue.

"Geniuses? You all deserve to die."

He pulled a deer-antler dagger from his robes and stabbed at Ning Yue.

It wasn't that Ning Yue didn't want to run, but he saw that everyone around him was far away, and besides, he couldn't get away.

He had only just broken through to the First-Rank Realm and had yet to reach its peak. He couldn't match a Second-Rank Realm martial artist in speed.

"If you want my life, you'll have to trade yours for it."

Ning Yue had run a few steps, but Lu Xiansen (Huang Liang) still caught up with him. Ning Yue steeled his resolve.

"I'm going on a killing spree."

With a shout, Ning Yue took the Jade Blood Saber from his storage slot. Its blade was jade green, with a straight bloodstain running along it. He brought it down on the head of Lu Xiansen, who had just charged over.

"Thunderclap!"

A thunderclap rang out, followed by a rumble of thunder as he unleashed the Ninefold Thunder Saber.

"You little bastard, you don't play by the five."

They had been playing cat and mouse, but Ning Yue suddenly attacked. Caught off guard, Lu Xiansen was nearly struck and had to dodge sideways.

At the same time, having drawn even closer to Ning Yue, he fought him at close quarters.

Pushing off with his toes, he sprang up and struck at Ning Yue's head with his palm. It descended like Mount Tai, splitting the air with the roar of angry waves.

Jade Blood Saber in hand, Ning Yue retreated step by step.

He twisted from the waist, driving his whole body around and using the momentum to slash horizontally at Lu Xiansen's waist.

"Kid, you really are a genius."

Lu Xiansen (Huang Liang) voiced his admiration. Seeing the people around them preparing to close in, he swung his blade even faster.

He grew anxious. Why hasn't the chief priest made his move yet? If he doesn't drive the ferocious beasts to attack soon, I'll be going to meet the Beast God.

An inch shorter, an inch more dangerous. The two fought at close quarters, their exchanges growing faster and faster.

As the fight went on, Ning Yue grew flustered. He knew he was at a disadvantage in actual combat experience.

All his fighting experience came from sparring. The closest he had come to actual combat was the last mock exam.

The opponents he had faced in the mock exam were all students, with low realms and weak combat power. He had only taken first place because the weak made him look good.

This was different. They were fighting for their lives and could die at any moment. Both were utterly focused, launching more than a hundred attacks every minute.

"Clang, clang, clang!"

During one clash, Ning Yue steeled himself and used all his strength, knocking both their weapons away.

Lu Xiansen didn't hesitate for a moment after losing his weapon. He immediately engaged Ning Yue in hand-to-hand combat.

Knee strikes, elbow strikes, punches, kicks.

Every joint was a weapon.

Ning Yue circulated the Ninefold Thunder Saber at full power, unleashing nine layers of force. He took several attacks head-on, closed in on Lu Xiansen, and wrapped his arms around his waist.

"Maiden-in-the-arms kill!"

At the same time, relying on the advantage of his Indestructible Vajra Physique, he used his head as a hammer, smashing it into Lu Xiansen's head again and again.

"You son of a bitch, you actually came to kill me."

"Fuck, I'm going to kill you."

"Die!"

Ning Yue was furious at being attacked for no reason, and his fury gave rise to violence.

He hammered away with his head, again and again, disregarding his own injuries.

Disregarding the pain throughout his body,

disregarding the blood streaming from his head.

As the headbutts continued, blood filled his eyes, but he struck again and again until Lu Xiansen went limp in his arms, no longer able to attack.

Ning Yue flung Lu Xiansen's senseless body aside, sending him flying several meters like a rag.

"Don't move!"

Several soldiers gathered around, watching Ning Yue warily as he lay sprawled on the ground.

Just then,

"Wulala! Wulala!"...

A rapid alarm rang out across the city.

"Ferocious beast riot! Everyone, assemble!"

A voice rang throughout the Xinyuan City complex.
