Chapter 2549: There’s Nothing I Can Do About It!
In the understanding of the Nine-Headed Fairy, the most powerful immortal artifact in the Immortal Realm is the Emperor’s Instruments.She couldn’t discern the rank of the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade in Fang Bai’s hands, so she speculated that it was an Emperor’s Instruments.
Little did she know, the rank of the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade had already surpassed the category of Immortal Artifacts.
It was precisely this miscalculation that led to the Nine-Headed Fairy’s all-out attack on Fang Bai ending in failure.
Fang Bai raised the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, successfully blocking the attack of the Nine-Headed Fairy’s Emperor’s Instruments. Though his figure was shaken back a hundred zhang, he remained uninjured.
The Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, upon receiving a strike from an Emperor’s Instruments, was undamaged and instead emitted a blood-red glow into the sky, with its evil qi growing even more intense, like an Immortal being provoked and showing its dominance.
The Nine-Headed Fairy, failing in one strike, knew she was doomed.
However, unwilling to accept defeat, she launched a storm-like attack on Fang Bai, clinging to a last glimmer of hope.
As long as she could kill Fang Bai before the two high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm Puppets, Thunderclap Immortal Emperor and Chaos Heaven Immortal Emperor, rushed over, she could still turn the tables.
"Using puppets to defeat me, what kind of skill is that? If you defeat me with your own strength, I will be sincerely convinced and willingly give you the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither!"
While attacking, the Nine-Headed Fairy also tried to provoke Fang Bai.
She believed that an immortal like Fang Bai, young and powerful, would often be hot-blooded and impulsive, extremely proud. If she could provoke him into a one-on-one battle, that would be her opportunity.
Fang Bai wielded the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, fending off the Nine-Headed Fairy’s frenzied assault, and said with a cold laugh, "You Nine-Headed Female Immortal, clearly fearing my puppets, trying to provoke me into a fight with you, do you think I don’t see that?"
The Nine-Headed Fairy, having her provocation scheme seen through, was furious and shrieked, "So what if I’m provoking you? Do you dare to fight me one-on-one?"
Fang Bai knew that even if he exerted all his strength, he could only contend with the Nine-Headed Fairy, who possessed an Emperor’s Instruments. It was not easy to kill her, so he smirked and said, "I have puppets that can kill you, why should I fight you one-on-one? If it were you, would you be so foolish? Ha, if you don’t want to give me the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither, I’ll kill you first and take it by hand!"
Saying this, he stopped talking nonsense with the Nine-Headed Fairy and quickly retreated.
At the same time, the two puppets, Thunderclap Immortal Emperor and Chaos Heaven Immortal Emperor, appeared on either side of the Nine-Headed Fairy and attacked her.
Under the pincer attack of the two high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm Experts, the Nine-Headed Fairy immediately felt enormous pressure and showed signs of defeat in an instant.
Struggling to hold on for just a hundred breaths, the Nine-Headed Fairy sustained several more injuries.
Although these injuries were far from fatal, they dealt a significant psychological blow to the Nine-Headed Fairy, plunging her into despair.
"Let me go, I’ll give you the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither!"
The Nine-Headed Fairy, who had been prepared to fight to the death earlier, now began to plead for mercy.
She knew that Fang Bai’s goal was the Emperor’s Instruments in her possession and realized that if the fight continued, she could not hold out for another hundred breaths. Out of fear of falling and valuing her life, she decided to hand over the Emperor’s Instruments.
"The Nine-Stringed Flame Zither may be a treasure of the clan, but if I lose my life, what use would this Emperor’s Instruments be? It’s better to preserve this useful body, work diligently in cultivation, and perhaps one day advance to the Emperor Realm and reclaim the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither!"
The Nine-Headed Fairy convinced herself.
"Hand it over!"
Fang Bai halted the attacks of the two puppets, then beckoned to the Nine-Headed Fairy, indicating she should hand over the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither.
The Nine-Headed Fairy looked down at the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither, full of reluctance, but under Fang Bai’s urging, she had no choice but to reluctantly throw it to him.
Fang Bai caught the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither and casually tossed it into the Five Elements Space Ring.
"The Nine-Headed Fire String Zither is the Nine-Headed Bird Clan’s clan treasure, inscribed with formation restrictions by the ancestors. Even if this young immortal obtains it, without breaking the formation restrictions, it is unusable! Moreover, I have left a trace of my aura on the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither. No matter where he is, as long as he takes out the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither, I will know his location! One day, I will reclaim this Emperor’s Instruments!"
The Nine-Headed Fairy thought secretly, feeling a bit smug.
Suddenly, the two puppets standing on either side of her simultaneously wielded their immortal artifacts and attacked her fiercely.
The Nine-Headed Fairy initially believed that after she handed over the Emperor’s Instruments, Fang Bai would keep his promise and not target her. Therefore, she lowered her guard.
But to her utter disbelief, after handing over the Emperor’s Instruments and losing her greatest support, Fang Bai actually controlled the puppets to suddenly strike.
She was momentarily stunned, and by the time she reacted, she only felt a chill in her body. The intact arm and both legs were already severed by the Emperor’s Instruments of the two Immortal Emperor Realm Puppets. Coupled with the previously severed arm in the battle, the current Nine-Headed Fairy was without all four limbs.
However, the life force of an Immortal Emperor Realm Expert is extremely strong. Even though the Nine-Headed Fairy lost her limbs, her breath was greatly reduced, but her vitality persisted.
If she timely consumed Healing Pills and Nine Revolutions Rebirth Pills, and rested for a few days, her injuries would heal, and her severed limbs could regenerate.
Yet, at this moment, the limbless Nine-Headed Fairy saw her combat power drastically reduced, making her like a lamb waiting for slaughter, an Immortal King Realm Expert could easily kill her.
"Disciples of Fire Dragon Island, this Female Immortal of the Nine-Headed Bird Clan has almost lost all her combat power. If you have grievances, seek revenge without holding back!"
Fang Bai’s gaze swept over the thousands of disciples of Fire Dragon Island who were watching from afar and announced aloud.
The last time the Nine-Headed Bird Clan invaded Fire Dragon Island, many disciples of Fire Dragon Island were lost. Every disciple of Fire Dragon Island harbored hatred towards the Nine-Headed Bird Clan. Upon hearing Fang Bai’s words, hundreds to thousands of disciples from Fire Dragon Island immediately flew over.
"I promised to spare your life, but if other immortals want to kill you, there’s nothing I can do!"
Fang Bai shrugged at the Nine-Headed Fairy, then withdrew the two puppets and quickly retreated to one side.
"You... breach your promise, despicable and shameless!"
The Nine-Headed Fairy never expected Fang Bai to do this, and in a burst of anger, she glared at Fang Bai and screamed hoarsely, regretting deeply her earlier gullibility in trusting Fang Bai and handing over the Emperor’s Instruments.
"Hehe..."
With a cold laugh, Fang Bai dismissed the Nine-Headed Fairy’s accusation.
He was now an Elder of Tribute at Fire Dragon Island, and treating the Nine-Headed Fairy this way was to seek justice for the fallen disciples of Fire Dragon Island, an act of righteousness, so he bore no psychological burden.
"Kill him!"
"Avenge our fallen companions!"
"If you offend Fire Dragon Island and kill our companions, no matter how strong, you must be executed!"
"Die!"
...
With loud roars, hundreds of celestial weapons were thrown by the disciples of Fire Dragon Island, bombarding the Nine-Headed Fairy from all directions.
These disciples of Fire Dragon Island were all Immortal King Realm Experts. Ordinarily, even if they joined forces, they could not harm the Nine-Headed Fairy.
But now, the Nine-Headed Fairy, having lost the majority of her combat power, had no strength to defend against the rainstorm-like onslaught of celestial weapons.
In the next moment, the Nine-Headed Fairy was engulfed by hundreds of celestial weapons. Her body was reduced to patches of flesh and blood under the assault of the celestial weapons, falling into the sea, vanishing without a trace.
