Chapter 696 Wrestling
Even the legendary monsters are nothing more than this, right?
Li Gang kept his eyes fixed on the giant bird circling in the sky, not daring to relax for a moment.
Seeing that his attack had missed again, Chi Yan let out a high-pitched cry.
"Giggle."
"Giggle!"
The next moment, another shadow appeared on the ground, and another giant bird appeared in Li Gang and the others' sight.
"There's another one?"
"There's another one of these terrifying giant birds?"
"It's over!"
"..."
The black-clad guards felt a chill run down their spines. One giant bird was already enough to leave them helpless, and now there was another one...
How should they respond?
"Damn it."
Upon seeing another giant bird appear in the sky, Li Gang cursed angrily. He couldn't even handle one giant bird, let alone two...
"We must deal with these two giant birds first, no matter what."
Li Gang's mind raced as he considered how to respond.
High in the sky, Crimson Flame One and Crimson Flame Two exchanged a few giggles before suddenly swooping down at the same time.
"Coming towards us!"
"Danger."
"Get out of the way quickly."
"..."
Seeing Crimson Flame One and Crimson Flame Two charging towards them, the Black-Clad Guards were thrown into disarray and hurriedly mustered their strength to dodge.
However, how can a movement technique performed on two legs compare to flying in the air?
"what!"
Soon, a black-clad guard who couldn't dodge in time had his shoulder shattered by Chi Yan Yi's claws. Then, his body was casually tossed high into the air by Chi Yan Yi before falling to the ground.
"boom!"
The black-clad guard crashed heavily to the ground, struggled for a moment, and finally collapsed, losing consciousness.
Having succeeded in its attack, Crimson Flame did not linger in battle. It quickly flapped its wings and soared back into the sky.
Meanwhile, Crimson Flame II also set its sights on a black-clad guard, intending to replicate Crimson Flame I's actions and end the guard's life.
However, this martial artist was of a higher level and reacted extremely quickly.
Just as the two fiery claws were about to grab his shoulder, how could he retaliate with a slash?
With a flash of light, at the critical moment of life and death, the black-clad guard unleashed his full power, channeling all his strength into the blade, and slashed at Crimson Flame II's claws.
"Well done!"
Upon seeing the martial artist's swift reaction, Li Gang was delighted, but the next moment, his joy froze on his face.
However, the black-clad guard's blade did indeed strike Crimson Flame Two's claws. But the scene that Li Gang had imagined—a clean cut in two—did not occur. Instead, the black-clad guard's blade was deflected as if it had struck steel.
"how is this possible?"
Li Gang's eyes were filled with disbelief. He recognized the black-clad guard, named Liu Jiang, one of his confidants, a peak fourth-grade martial artist, who was almost a third-grade martial artist.
However, his all-out attack couldn't even cut the giant bird's claws.
"How could this be?"
Not only Li Gang, but everyone who saw this scene was stunned.
Liu Jiang's main skill was swordsmanship; even Li Gang, a second-rank martial artist, wouldn't dare say he could easily withstand a full-force strike from him. However, that giant bird…
It's simply unbelievable that he took a full-force blow from Liu Jiang without even breaking his skin.
"Little friend."
On the city wall, Li Qingyun, who witnessed this scene firsthand, couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "Your bird is truly astonishing!"
"..."
Chen Dao's lips twitched. Why did those words sound so strange?
In fact, Chen Dao was not surprised by what happened. The claws of the Crimson Flame Chicken, like Xiao Yuan's claws, are one of the hardest parts of the Crimson Flame Chicken's body. The black-clad guard's attempt to cut off the Crimson Flame Chicken's claws with a single strike was clearly overthinking things.
but……
Although the martial artist named Liu Jiang failed to sever Chi Yan Er's claws with a single strike, he still managed to cause Chi Yan Er to lose his balance for a moment, preventing him from immediately taking to the sky.
Li Gang, with his extensive combat experience, immediately noticed this.
"good chance!"
A glint flashed in Li Gang's eyes, and he unleashed his full speed.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared beside Liu Jiang and grabbed Chi Yan Er's chicken foot.
"Giggle!"
Crimson Flame II, whose chicken foot had been grabbed, quickly flapped its wings, trying to fly back into the sky and throw Li Gang off at the same time.
However, Li Gang's hand was like an iron clamp, firmly gripping Chi Yan Er's chicken foot, attempting to pull Chi Yan Er to the ground.
For a time, the two sides were locked in a power struggle.
Chi Yan Er tried to break free from Li Gang and fly back into the sky.
Li Gang then mobilized all his strength and true energy, trying to drag Chi Yan Er towards the ground.
He was confident that he could kill the giant bird if he could drag it to the ground!
"Commander, we're here to help you!"
The other black-clad guards also reacted quickly, gripping their blades and rushing towards Chi Yan Er, intending to kill him while he was struggling with Li Gang!
However, they forgot one thing!
Not only was Crimson Flame II present, but Crimson Flame I, who had already taken to the sky after landing a successful attack, was also there.
Upon seeing that Crimson Flame Two was entangled, Crimson Flame One swooped down, its beak open, and the next moment, flames fell from the sky.
"boom!"
Flames exploded on the ground. The quick-reacting black-clad guards retreated to avoid the flames, while those who couldn't react were burned to ashes.
"Damn it!"
Upon seeing this scene, Li Gang cursed angrily. The black-clad guards he brought this time were all his trusted confidants, and each one was a mid-to-high-grade martial artist whom he had cultivated with a lot of effort and resources. The death of each one was enough to make him feel the pain.
"That damned beast, I will kill him!"
Enraged, Li Gang unleashed his full power, forcefully dragging Chi Yan Er to the ground with his own strength.
Immediately afterwards, Li Gang swung the blade in his right hand, slashing at Chi Yan Er's wings, intending to first disable the beast's ability to fly before killing it!
However, what Li Gang didn't know was that... the Crimson Flame Chicken looked like a bird, but it was actually a chicken.
Its advantage is indeed its ability to fly, but that doesn't mean it loses its combat capability once it lands!
Just as Li Gang swung his knife, Chi Yan Er reacted. It was too late to fly into the sky to dodge Li Gang's attack, so Chi Yan Er chose to take the hit head-on.
With a nimble twist of its neck, Chi Yan Er's long beak shot out like lightning.
"clang!"
The next second, the chicken beak collided with Li Gang's longsword. Li Gang's full-force strike, imbued with true energy, momentarily slowed the massive body of Chi Yan Er.
As for Li Gang himself...
The moment the knife collided with the chicken's beak, a tremendous force surged from the blade, sending Li Gang flying backward for nearly 20 meters. Only then did Li Gang manage to deflect that powerful force.
