Simultaneous Transmigration: Minor Characters Don't Be Cannon Fodder

Chapter 123 The Cicada Awaits

Su Wan's sword strikes grew faster with each strike, and purple lightning transformed into a raging dragon that swept across the sky, completely enveloping Kui Ling's figure.

Although her face was growing paler and blood was seeping from the corner of her mouth.

But his aura grew increasingly fierce, and every slash he made accurately blocked Kui Ling's retreat, forcing him to keep spinning inside the dragon woven from the lightning net.

Kui Ling grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed. Despite the woman in front of him appearing to be on the verge of death, her attacks left him in a sorry state.

If he hadn't been extremely skilled in speed, he might have already been cut into eight pieces by Su Wan.

"Crazy woman!"

Kui Ling gritted her teeth and cursed under her breath, then suddenly dodged to the left, narrowly avoiding another lightning strike.

However, this time, the observant Kui Ling was surprised to find that Su Wan's slashing speed and sharpness seemed to be slightly slower than before.

He immediately looked up at Su Wan and realized that the other party seemed to be nearing his limit.

So he immediately accelerated and rushed towards the outer perimeter, forcing Su Wan to use all his strength to block his path with faster strikes, thereby increasing the rate at which Su Wan's stamina was depleted.

And so, after more than a dozen consecutive slashes, Kui Ling noticed that the power of Su Wan's slashes had finally declined significantly compared to the beginning.

He still has plenty of energy, and if he can hold on for a few more minutes, he can secure the victory.

However, Su Wan seemed to have anticipated this, after forcing Kui Ling to retreat once again.

She suddenly shouted for some unknown reason, and then her momentum, which had begun to decline, stabilized again and even rose again as if in a final burst of energy.

"Low-level Earth-rank Battle Skill - Great Wilderness Flood Dragon!"

When Su Wan's voice came, Kui Ling's expression suddenly changed drastically, as she had been trying to accelerate Su Wan's physical exertion.

But there was no time for him to react.

The purple dragon that had been enveloping Kui Ling suddenly became active, accompanied by Su Wan's shout.

At the same time, the body woven from lightning also displayed its berserk state for the first time.

Dense lightning bolts began to shoot from every part of its body, then connected together to form a thundercloud that resembled a fog, enveloping the dragon's entire body and continuously striking Kui Ling with lightning.

This time, lightning will strike hundreds of times every second.

No matter how fast Kui Ling is, she has no way to dodge such a dense barrage of attacks.

Upon realizing this, Kui Ling's eyes widened in fury.

Finally, he decided to take a gamble, no longer caring about his good condition, and began to unleash a terrifying forbidden technique that was harmful to his body.

"Transform into fire, and ignite it for me!"

"The Great Art of Burning Heaven and Annihilating Life!"

Kui Ling let out a sharp shriek in her somewhat feminine voice, and then the black flames in her hands burst forth from her body, transforming into dense beams of black flame that collided repeatedly with the dense lightning bolts striking down in the air.

If Kui Ling wants to contend with Su Wan's attack, which consumes her life force, she herself will definitely have to pay a certain price, such as being burned by flames.

However, the price was worth it. His hasty counterattack actually blocked the vast majority of the lightning strikes, with only a small portion hitting him.

Fortunately, Kui Ling's physical strength was high enough that she was only seriously injured by the attack, but not to the point of losing her fighting ability.

Even against Su Wan, whose energy was already somewhat depleted, he still had a chance of winning.

"The lady's knife is indeed formidable; it almost took my life."

"But unfortunately, it was just a little short."

"And given your current state, you'll probably never reach that point!"

As the lightning arcs on her body dissipated, Kui Ling wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her eyes fixed on Su Wan, whose aura had completely collapsed not far away, and she chuckled softly.

Su Wan did not reply to Kui Ling's words.

She simply raised her head slowly once more, gazing at Kui Ling with a calm, almost cold, expression.

Then he gripped the hilt of the knife again, spitting out blood as he once more channeled the raging battle qi within his body.

"Damn it, they're courting death!"

Under Su Wan's gaze, Kui Ling, who had been smiling, suddenly felt a tightness in her chest and instinctively wanted to back away.

Upon discovering this, he became enraged and glared at Su Wan with resentment. Despite his injuries, he launched a fierce attack.

This time, the tables have turned, and he's determined to show that crazy woman Su Wan what he's capable of!

"Mid-level Profound Rank Battle Skill - Fiery Finger!"

Kui Ling pointed her finger, and the black flames transformed into a condensed, high-temperature line of fire, piercing through the air and striking towards Su Wan's heart.

Su Wan was equally unyielding, and facing the rapidly approaching heat wave, he drew his sword from the side and slashed out quickly.

As the high-temperature fire line approached, it unleashed an extremely sharp blade of energy, instantly slicing the fire line in two and forcing it to change direction and shoot away to other places.

However, Kui Ling's move was just a feint. The moment the attack was launched, he quickly approached from the side and used his speed advantage to launch an attack the instant the sword was drawn.

Taking advantage of the fact that the old forces in Jiangsu and Anhui had not yet been eliminated and that new forces had not yet emerged, they launched a surprise attack.

"Advanced Profound-Rank Battle Skill - Fleeting Life Like Fire!"

The timing of this move was impeccable; the claws, wreathed in scorching black flames, struck Su Wan precisely in the abdomen.

"Pupi's flesh was pierced by the fire claws, and Kui Ling's arm was inserted directly into Su Wan's abdomen."

He then revealed a smug and arrogant smile, and with a burst of strength, he twisted his arm upwards, attempting to take the opportunity to burn all of Su Wan's internal organs.

However, the next moment, something horrifying happened to him.

After being pierced through the body, Su Wan's expression remained completely unchanged. She calmly turned her head to look at Kui Ling.

Then he unleashed an even faster slash than Kui Ling's, first severing Kui Ling's arm with one strike, and then aiming straight for Kui Ling's throat with another, attempting to behead Kui Ling directly.

"Damn it! Don't even think about it!"

The moment the knife pierced her flesh, Kui Ling's expression changed drastically, and she no longer cared about her arm that Su Wan had severed.

The instant he felt a chilling sensation in his throat, he retreated swiftly without hesitation, trying to use his terrifying speed to dodge the fatal blow.

Unfortunately, Su Wan's attack was not so easy to dodge.

Just as Kui Ling distanced herself from the blade tip, the lightning on the longsword suddenly surged and began to extend rapidly.

Even though Kui Ling had already reacted to Su Wan's slash, the attack's range had already completely enveloped him.

Thus, Kui Ling's head was severed, and she perished.

"Pfft, cough cough!"

However, Su Wan wasn't much better off. Just after delivering the final blow, she couldn't help but cough up a mouthful of blood and plummeted rapidly towards the forest.

However, Su Wan did not pay any attention to this.

She simply looked down at the severed arm that had pierced through her abdomen, reached down to remove the two storage rings from her fingers, and revealed a gentle smile.
