"Wh-what?"
Shen Yun Yao was stunned by what she saw.
She had been very worried about Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao, wanting to step forward and help, even though she knew she wouldn't be able to do much given Wang Ba Tian's immense strength...
But she hadn't expected that the person who had just been spat out blood and sent flying was Wang Ba Tian?
Not just Shen Yun Yao, Sphinx was also astonished, and Old Ghost frowned.
"This..."
As the silver light gradually diminished, Shen Yun Yao was even more surprised when she saw the person who had just sent Wang Ba Tian flying and crashing into the ruins.
It was Xiao Xiao, not Ye Feng!
"This... Xiao Xiao... is that strong?"
"Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao, is Xiao Xiao the stronger one?"
Looking at Xiao Xiao, who was glowing silver and appeared serious not far away, Shen Yun Yao murmured to herself.
It was Xiao Xiao, who had been hiding behind the rocks with Ye Feng and put on the angel battle suit, who had just punched Wang Ba Tian flying.
At this moment, Ye Feng also walked out from behind the large rock, holding a large cleaver in his hand, a weapon previously dismantled from a mecha.
"Oh, I really underestimated you!"
Looking at Xiao Xiao, Sphinx narrowed his eyes, flicked his scarlet tongue, and licked his lips. "In my current state... this food is a bit tricky... I'll have a little appetizer first!"
With that, Sphinx's gaze fell on Ye Feng, and he charged straight at him.
"Kachaka!"
As Sphinx ran, a flash of light appeared in his hand, and a brand-new mecha materialized. In the blink of an eye, Sphinx was inside the cockpit.
Old Ghost still didn't make a move, but stared at Xiao Xiao, who was clad in the angel battle suit, with a confused expression, a hint of apprehension flickering deep in his eyes.
"Hmph!"
"Bang~ Crash!"
At this moment, Wang Ba Tian roared and burst out of a pile of rubble, charging towards Xiao Xiao with a mass of steel bars and sharp debris.
"Bang!"
Xiao Xiao slightly crouched, moved back, and with a silver-glowing fist, punched Wang Ba Tian again, sending him flying.
Meanwhile, Sphinx had already reached Ye Feng. Shen Yun Yao leaped a few times, arriving beside Ye Feng. A white long sword, shimmering with water ripples, materialized in her hand, ready to help Ye Feng deal with Sphinx.
As for Shen Bo Tian in the distance, Shen Yun Yao shook her head, suppressing the thoughts in her mind with helplessness, forcing herself not to think about it for now...
"Go help Xiao Xiao!"
To Shen Yun Yao's surprise, Ye Feng waved his hand at her.
"What?"
Shen Yun Yao was slightly taken aback, not quite understanding for a moment.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
As Ye Feng finished speaking, he was already engaging Sphinx's mecha with the large cleaver. Sparks flew, and the sound of metal clashing echoed.
Seeing that Ye Feng was not at a disadvantage, Shen Yun Yao frowned slightly and finally ran towards Xiao Xiao.
"Clang~ Clang! Clang!"
"Bang bang bang!~"
Ye Feng, wielding the large cleaver, engaged in close-quarters combat with Sphinx's mecha, making it difficult for the heavy machine guns on Sphinx's mecha to be effective.
"This guy isn't using the blood-colored chains he had earlier... is it because of that strange and powerful blood technique he used?"
"After using the blood technique on Shen Bo Tian, this guy did look very weak..."
Ye Feng analyzed inwardly as they fought.
"Trying to run? No way!"
Seeing Ye Feng quickly retreat in one direction after a clash, Sphinx roared and controlled his mecha to pursue, firing his shoulder-mounted heavy machine gun.
"Keng keng keng!~"
A fierce and rapid sound of metal collision ensued. Ye Feng had placed the large cleaver behind him, blocking the bullets.
"Damn low-level human!"
After a burst of sparks, Sphinx cursed, his mecha accelerating again to chase Ye Feng.
Although Sphinx's mecha was not as agile as Ye Feng's, its movement speed was much faster than Ye Feng's running speed. Ye Feng was about to be caught.
But at that moment, Ye Feng, who had been running away at full speed, abruptly stopped. He turned sharply and leaped to the side, the force of his movement imprinting a footprint on the stone beneath his feet.
"Whoosh!~ Whoosh!"
"Kachaka!~"
After a few agile leaps, Ye Feng arrived behind Sphinx's mecha and quickly attached two C4 explosives to the heavy machine guns on the mecha's shoulders.
"Boom boom!~"
A massive explosion erupted. Although it didn't penetrate the mecha, it crippled the two heavy machine guns on its shoulders.
"Damn bug!"
Sphinx's enraged voice rang out again. He controlled his mecha, gripped its sharp cleaver, and swung it at Ye Feng once more.
"Clang!~ Clang!"
After a clash, Ye Feng used the force to retreat a considerable distance, continuing to run towards the large pile of building debris ahead.
"You damnable low-level human, I will tear you to shreds!"
Ye Feng's hit-and-run tactic clearly enraged Sphinx.
"This guy really can't use the blood-colored chains he used on Shen Bo Tian anymore!~"
Ye Feng squinted slightly as he ran.
"Damn it, I used the power of the Blood Ancestor against Shen Bo Tian... it consumed too much vital blood... I can't recover in such a short time..."
"But as long as I can eat that little girl... I definitely can..."
Sphinx glanced back at Xiao Xiao, who was fighting Wang Ba Tian in the distance, his eyes filled with greed and desire. Finally, he gritted his teeth, bit his tongue, spat out a mouthful of blood, and formed a seal with his hand.
Instantly, Sphinx's mecha began to emit an eerie blood-red glow. The next second, he charged at Ye Feng again.
"Hm?"
Ye Feng glanced back slightly, looking at Sphinx, feeling quite surprised.
It wasn't because his speed had increased significantly, but because his mecha seemed to have undergone some kind of transformation. The metallic mecha gave him a soft feeling, like a biological body, as if it were not a mecha at all... but some kind of biological creature in mecha form...
"This distance and terrain... it's about time!"
Entering the vast building ruins, Ye Feng surveyed his surroundings and slowed down.
"Die."
At this moment, Sphinx had reached Ye Feng from behind, his blood-red glowing cleaver swinging rapidly at Ye Feng.
"Clang!~"
Ye Feng reacted just as quickly, gripping his cleaver and quickly bringing it up to block.
"Ugh!~"
Suddenly, Ye Feng let out a cry of pain. Although he blocked Sphinx's attack, the red glow on the mecha's cleaver grazed his arm.
Instantly, a large amount of blood was drawn from his body, carried away by the red light.
"Sizzle sizzle~!"
"Delicious!"
The red light, carrying Ye Feng's blood, returned to Sphinx's mecha and merged into it. Sphinx let out a joyous and frenzied cry, and the red glow above the mecha intensified.
"Does this guy's red light absorb blood on contact?"
Just as this thought crossed Ye Feng's mind, Sphinx swung his red-glowing cleaver at Ye Feng again.
