The Netting Angel almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
What a righteous way to fight, calling a three-on-one a fair fight?
Yes, from the very beginning, Wen Wen had no intention of fighting the Netting Angel fairly.
With time being fleeting, why fight one-on-one when one could outnumber the opponent?
The Netting Angel was a veteran True Sequence powerhouse. With Wen Wen's strength, it wouldn't be easy to take him down, and he might not even be able to defeat him at all.
Furthermore, due to the God's Blood Cup, everyone's location had been exposed.
If Wen Wen couldn't quickly deal with the Netting Angel, Hesta, the one with the sacred beast, would definitely come looking for him.
At that point, Wen Wen would be the one being outnumbered and overpowered.
"You think having more people makes me afraid?" The Netting Angel scoffed dismissively. "Angels are a race of combatants in the truest sense. Pressure and adversity only make me stronger!"
His six arms moved simultaneously, each unleashing a powerful attack.
A shield struck the air, creating ripples. A greatsword seemed capable of tearing through the air. A rapier thrust out a sharp sword energy. An axe was thrown, carrying immense power as it spun towards Wen Wen...
All six moves were formidable, and Wen Wen and the other two braced themselves.
However, they didn't expect the Netting Angel, who had been so indignant moments ago, to suddenly flap his wings and fly away. He was actually fleeing!
All the bravado he had shown earlier was just bluster. The situation was clearly unfavorable to him now; why would he stay and court death?
But Wen Wen, having summoned Xue Jiuyi and Liangdan Si Guiying, had no intention of letting the Netting Angel escape.
Before they even appeared, Xue Jiuyi had already laid down blood hand seals in the surroundings. This place was now his domain.
Several blood-red hands rapidly rose from the ground, forming a large net in the sky, blocking the Netting Angel who was attempting to escape.
Then, Wen Wen flashed beneath the Netting Angel and rapidly swung his sword at the airborne figure, seven sharp sword lights slashing towards the Netting Angel's legs.
Ghost Sword Path. Seven Stars!
Upon seeing these sword energies, the Netting Angel remembered being cut by the Filth Blade when Wen Wen possessed Yan Xiu.
So, he instinctively brought his legs together and used all his weapons to block Wen Wen's attack.
But precisely because of this, he overlooked the blood-red hands from above, and was directly slammed into the ground by several colossal palms.
The blood-red hands were powerful and heavy, driving the Netting Angel ten meters into the earth, making him look utterly pathetic.
Then, Liangdan Si Guiying surged forward, his hands manifesting mottled phantom images as he struck at the Netting Angel lying on the ground.
But his sneak attack failed. Intense holy energy suddenly erupted from the Netting Angel, pushing everything around him flat and breaking free from the blood hands.
Then, with a swing of his greatsword, he cut the Liangdan Si Guiying in two.
The three faces of the Netting Angel displayed different expressions, and his body exuded a solemn and majestic aura.
He had activated his full abilities, vowing to fight these evil forces to the very end!
The severed Liangdan Si Guiying re-formed into a single entity. Wen Wen and the other two stood around the Netting Angel in a triangle, encircling him.
The second round of battle officially began.
...
Hesta, with a sinister grin on his face, moved lightly towards the direction of the Big Wave Club.
The God's Blood Cup had revealed everyone's location, giving Hesta a sense of morbid pleasure.
He enjoyed the feeling of hunting, but he lacked opportunities for it.
Therefore, the God's Blood Cup competition perfectly met his needs.
Ye Wen and Lin Zhe Yuan stood helplessly amidst the ruins of the Big Wave Club. As per Wen Wen's instructions, they were supposed to find a place to hide.
But the mark on Lin Zhe Yuan's hand suddenly emitted a blood-red beam of light. This beam of light could not be concealed, so it would definitely reveal their hiding spot.
Thus, to avoid implicating others, Lin Zhe Yuan waited here, and Ye Wen did not let him fight alone, choosing to stay by his side.
Lin Zhe Yuan transformed into the True Knowledge Evil Eye and flew into the air, his gaze seeming to pierce through the void.
In this state, his vision far surpassed any superpowered individual of the same level. He saw Hesta approaching from a distance.
This filled him with despair. He was acutely aware of the power of the cicada insect behind Hesta.
For superpowered individuals below the True Sequence, that creature was like an ant. Yet, he could only stand tall and wait for Hesta to find them.
Because he had no way to escape.
Suddenly, Hesta stopped and looked towards the direction of the Netting Angel and Wen Wen, his smile twisting into an even more twisted grimace.
"It's Bailer's Netting Angel fighting someone... Hehehe, hunting a strong opponent is much more interesting."
So, he turned and headed in Wen Wen's direction.
Lin Zhe Yuan, suspended in the sky, breathed a sigh of relief. Hesta's target had changed, and they were temporarily safe.
He reverted to his human form and landed on the ground. After a moment of thought, he said to Ye Wen, "Did you sense where the True Sequence level battle is taking place? Let's go there too."
Ye Wen blinked in surprise. "Are you crazy? With our strength, going there is just asking for death!"
Lin Zhe Yuan shook his head. "Perhaps it is, but the outcome of this God's Blood Cup competition will be decided there!
If the Demon Hunter side wins, we can meet up with them immediately. If they lose, no matter where we hide, we won't be able to escape!"
...
Si Fu Er Mo was searching the Summer Bamboo District for any clues about the God's Blood Cup, but he hadn't found anything.
Alright, he was just lost.
But when those red lights appeared, even the most directionally challenged person would know where to go.
So, he reached into his pocket and felt something. He was slightly burned by it, confirming that the item was still there. He then hurried towards where Wen Wen was fighting.
...
The Netting Angel knelt on the ground, blood pouring from his body and making sizzling sounds as it hit the earth.
Although the Netting Angel was strong, he was still only a True Sequence.
Facing the encirclement of three individuals simultaneously, he quickly became overwhelmed and exposed an opening.
"Good opportunity!"
Wen Wen's eyes lit up. Holding the Blood River Sword, he transformed into a streak of blood-colored light, passing by the Netting Angel.
When he stopped, Wen Wen elegantly twirled his sword, shaking off the golden blood.
Ghost Sword Path - Severing Flash!
"You... You are bullying angels too much."
The Netting Angel, with his legs clamped together, pointed at Wen Wen, his lips trembling, unable to utter a word.
Golden blood sprayed from beneath him like a spray bottle. He hadn't expected to fall victim to this move despite all his precautions.
Xue Jiuyi clasped his hands together. Two colossal blood-red palms suddenly emerged from the ground, scooping up the Netting Angel like a fly.
Then, Liangdan Si Guiying leaped high, condensing a patch of mottled phantom images in his hand, and landed a punch on the Netting Angel's head. Already furious, the Netting Angel fainted from this blow.
