Chapter 1657: Chapter 198 Giant Winged Ghost King_3
Harsfin’s expression kept changing; he never imagined he would lose like this, his face turning red and then pale, unable to speak for a long while.
Ah Dai squinted his eyes, saying, "My patience is limited. I hope you can make a decision quickly and keep your earlier vow." The compressed Sumeru Sword’s energy was tremendously powerful, and he was barely able to sustain it. Now, there were only two choices: shoot Harsfin or disperse the power. Influenced by the goodness in his heart and Qian Qian’s earlier transformation, Ah Dai decided to give Harsfin a chance to keep his promise.
Harsfin was now completely passive, maintaining his previous posture, he dejectedly said, "Kid, you’re ruthless. I admit defeat."
Ah Dai took a deep breath and urged the Golden Body within, gradually retracting the compressed Sumeru Sword back into his body. As the pressure eased bit by bit, the look on Harsfin’s face immediately relaxed. His giant wings slightly flapped, and the light in his single eye gradually returned to normal. "You won. Although a bit careless, I didn’t fully unleash my abilities, but you indeed won. I keep my word. From now on, you are my master." As he spoke, he floated twenty meters forward, slowly bowed, and saluted Ah Dai.
Ah Dai, having painstakingly retracted the compressed Sumeru Sword’s energy back into his body, said with relief, "There’s no need for formalities. I will not be your master in the future; we are just friends."
Harsfin lifted his head, looking gratefully at Ah Dai, saying, "You truly are a magnanimous human!" As he spoke, with no warning, Harsfin’s body moved forward ghost-like, with his three right arms simultaneously extending huge fists aimed at Ah Dai’s chest. At this instant, Harsfin’s burst of speed was noticeably faster than Ah Dai’s, leaving almost no time to react. His three fists had already reached Ah Dai’s chest. Ah Dai, having just absorbed the massive compressed energy, had not completely regained control over his energy, and with the Xuan Iron Bow still in hand, he had no time to respond. Furthermore, the Divine Dragon Body Cover had retracted earlier when he used energy to control the compressed Sumeru Sword, leaving him bare to Harsfin’s attack. In a mix of shock and anger, Ah Dai could only barely muster what little life force was left to shield himself. Harsfin’s cultivation didn’t differ much from Ah Dai’s, and Ah Dai couldn’t possibly withstand his attack without defense. The three dark green fists landed heavily on his chest and abdomen, and just as it seemed Ah Dai would meet his end at Harsfin’s hands, a surge of black-gray gas emerged from Ah Dai’s chest, instantly chilling the air around them. Harsfin felt a sudden coldness, shivering, which naturally weakened his attack somewhat. With a crashing boom, Ah Dai’s body was sent flying, blood spurting wildly. But Harsfin didn’t fare well either, flying back over thirty meters before stabilizing.
Seeing Ah Dai under attack, the three Sword Saints rushed forward in shock and fury, weaving blue, red, and green lights into a dense web surrounding Harsfin from all directions. In one swift turn, Harsfin covered his body with his massive wings and in an instant, transformed ghost-like, bursting out of the dense energy net. However, the violent energy attacks from the three Sword Saints were indeed powerful. Even in his ghostly form, he still suffered to some extent, spitting out a mouthful of dark green blood, and shouted angrily, "Stop for now—I have something to say."
Goshawk roared in anger, "What else is there to say, you promise-breaking scoundrel."
Harsfin snorted coldly, "Several of you against me alone, is that fair? Don’t forget, I’m a demon, a demon from the Demon Realm. Have you ever heard of a demon keeping their word? You were just too naive to easily believe me."
Despite his severe injuries, Ah Dai did not fall. His body continued to hover in mid-air, trembling slightly, around which black, gray, white, and gold colors flickered continuously.
"Kid, why do you have the aura of Lord Hades on you? What’s your relationship with Lord Hades?" Harsfin asked somewhat urgently.
Ah Dai slowly lifted his head; his black eyes became exceptionally profound, and the various glows on his body gradually merged back within him. At this moment, he seemed to enter the state he was in during the summoning of the Nine Heavens God Thunder, and a huge shadow slowly appeared behind him, releasing an icy chill. The shadow held a long weapon, looking extremely bizarre. The three Sword Saints hadn’t seen Ah Dai summon the Nine Heavens God Thunder before and couldn’t help but be astounded like Harsfin. Ah Dai’s eyes flashed with a strange light, coldly saying, "Ignorant lowly creature, your treachery and foolishness have led to your demise—go to where you belong." The enormous shadow behind him pushed the long weapon forward into Ah Dai’s hand. With a single hand, Ah Dai thrusted forward, and the three Sword Saints felt the world darken before hearing a piercing scream, "No—are you a god or a demon?" The light returned, and Harsfin’s body had already vanished without a trace of malice left behind. The shadow behind Ah Dai gradually faded, and his body swayed, abruptly falling backward as if he’d lost all support, plummeting swiftly downward. The three Sword Saints were shocked; Yun Ying swiftly moved to catch Ah Dai, exchanged glances with Goshawk and Harry, and quickly flew towards the direction of The Allied Forces’ experts.
