Chapter 635 -294: Major Family Events III: Night of the Witch (Part 9)_5
The world amidst the wind and snow changed color in this instant, with only a slanted arc of light bursting forth, endlessly expanding forward, breaking through layer upon layer of obstruction, seeming to extend to the end of the world.
In the next instant, the blade of light swept away the biting wind and snow, effortlessly cleaving through thousands of thorns, splitting the oncoming thorn spears in two, and then precisely grazing the waist of Witch Black Rose.
Just like that, she was bisected at the waist.
The air fell silent for a moment.
Immediately after, blood gushed out like a fountain, a clean cut prominently emerging from the middle of Witch Black Rose’s body, as her upper and lower halves slowly parted.
Her face slightly shocked, her upper half bloodily slid onto the stage of the Witches’ Night.
Regaining her senses, Black Rose slowly raised her eyes, only then noticing that her lower half remained in place, soon to be enveloped by the howling wind and snow.
Magical Girl Xiaohongmao raised her magic wand, sealing every corner of her body in thick ice and snow, leaving only her head exposed outside, her pitch-black hair fluttering in the fierce wind, as pathetic as a human head statue in the Arctic.
Watching this scene, Lan Ou took a deep breath, the light fading slowly from over his right hand.
At this time, his battle suit was completely shattered from his right hand to his right shoulder, revealing a charred, skeletal arm hanging limply in the air like a broken branch—using his own body, he had released the “Rotary Arm Fist-Guessing Skill,” with the backlash from that single strike being self-evident.
The next moment, the upper half of Black Rose slowly leaned back and fell towards the stage of the Witches’ Night.
Before she completely collapsed, from a great, great distance, she locked eyes with the girl in a Christmas skirt.
Her bloodied lips slightly quivered.
“Save her…” Black Rose silently said, then fell to the floor, closing her eyes.
Xiaohongmao looked on emotionlessly, watching her fall, until a prompt slowly sounded in her ear.
[You have successfully killed an A-grade superhuman; milestone achievement has been updated.]
Xiaohongmao turned her head to look.
Beside her, Lan Ou lifted his left hand, covering his shattered right arm, took a deep breath, and looked around, only then realizing that Bai Yi had silently vanished above the night of the witches.
“Where’s Bai Yi…” Lan Ou asked hoarsely, his voice rough with his nearly disabled right hand hanging.
“He went through that door while we were fighting.”
Xiaohongmao lifted her snow-white right hand and pointed behind her.
“Then let’s go too.”
Ke Mingye said as he turned around and shakily walked toward the door; his heart pounding, his steps quickening, the pain from his arm disregarded, aware that Bai Zini was just behind that door.
Just by passing through this door… he could see her.
At this moment, from all directions suddenly came a strange noise, Lan Ou glanced sideways to see faceless puppets all covered in pale grey. They looked exactly like the super-giant puppets that had ravaged the city, only shrunk down more than a hundredfold, to the size of an ordinary adult.
Seeing this, Xiaohongmao slightly lowered her hood and turned her head to ask Lan Ou, “Shall I stay behind?”
“No.”
Lan Ou shook his head, and suddenly a figure descended from the sky on Wind Fire Wheels.
Xiaohongmao looked up.
The person wore a dark red metal ghost mask with a gaze as black and vacant as the void, two dreadlocks falling from the holes in the back of the helmet, gently swaying under the blood-red canopy.
He was dressed in a black and red metal short coat, one sleeve seemingly burnt off, revealing a wrist with prominent veins and a faint redness. Each of his feet stood on dark gold wheels spinning at high speeds, sparks continually flickering from the edges, supporting him floating midair.
In his hand, he held a bizarre long spear—with flame-shaped tassels drifting slowly like red embers, the shaft engraved with patterns of flame circles; the spearhead likewise gleamed with a cold, fierce flame.
Xiaohongmao looked up, her gaze lingering for a moment on the ghost mask on Divine Communicator Nezha’s face, meeting the pitch-black emptiness of his eyes, then shifted her gaze back to Lan Ou.
“Leave these puppets to him… we go save Bai Zini.”
Behind the mask, Ke Mingye said hoarsely, then took a breath, and without paying further attention to his injured right arm, walked quickly toward the giant door at the base of the Witches’ statue.
“Got it.”
Xiaohongmao nodded, dismounting from the sled, and followed by Ke Mingye’s side.
Soon after, their figures faded into the shadows behind the giant door, vanishing from sight.
