Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor

Chapter 2547: Pincer Attack

Fang Bai stood outside the Dragon Maiden’s Immortal Residence for a moment. Knowing that the island’s protective formation was in place and the Antarctica Immortal Emperor was entangled by the Hundred Slaughter Formation, he felt assured the Dragon Maiden wouldn’t be disturbed. He then soared into the sky, appearing before the Nine-Headed Fairy."You, a female immortal with nine heads, instead of cultivating in your own lair, you come here to stir up trouble! Hmph, the Dragon Blood Pool is also something your Nine-Headed Bird Clan dares to covet?"

Fang Bai looked coldly at the Nine-Headed Fairy and said.

"You there, immortal, what is your relationship with Fire Dragon Island?"

The Nine-Headed Fairy stared intently at Fang Bai and frowned as she asked.

Last time, the Nine-Headed Fairy led the Nine-Headed Bird Clan against Fire Dragon Island, but she was severely wounded by the Dragon Maiden wearing the Dragon Scale Armor. While escaping, she saw Fang Bai fly from afar to Fire Dragon Island; however, she did not know what happened thereafter.

She believed that even if Fang Bai wasn’t a disciple of Fire Dragon Island, he must have some connection with it, otherwise why would he speak to her in such a manner?

Fang Bai waved his hand and said, "What relationship I have with Fire Dragon Island, you need not know! Your Nine-Headed Bird Clan’s Emperor’s Instrument, the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither, is on you, isn’t it?"

Upon hearing him mention the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither, the Nine-Headed Fairy was startled and blurted out, "How do you know about the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither?"

Fang Bai sneered, "I also know the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither was crafted by an Emperor Realm expert from your Nine-Headed Bird Clan hundreds of thousands of years ago. It’s just a pity that given your cultivation level, you might be stuck at the high rank of the Immortal Emperor Realm in this life; with the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither in your hands, it’s a sheer waste!"

In past years, while training, the Nine-Headed Fairy had suffered significant damage, leading to an impairment of her Qi Sea. Although she later restored her Qi Sea with an Immortal Pill, her cultivation level was never able to advance.

This was a sore spot for her, one she disliked any immortal bringing up, therefore Fang Bai’s words instantly left her both shocked and angry.

Angry because Fang Bai exposed her scar in front of the Nine-Headed Bird Clan experts.

Shock was because her inability to advance was noticed by a mere immortal of the initial rank of the Immortal Emperor Realm.

"You little immortal, you’ve successfully angered this fairy! Dare you reveal your honorific name? This fairy doesn’t kill unknown individuals!"

The Nine-Headed Fairy gritted her teeth and glared at Fang Bai.

Fang Bai said, "My honorific is Wushuang Immortal King... Oh, now it’s Wushuang Immortal Emperor. You want to kill me? That’s unlikely! If you use the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither, it could pose a significant threat to me!"

"Arrogant! To kill you, an initial-rank Immortal Emperor, why would I need to use an Emperor’s Instrument?"

The Nine-Headed Fairy had never heard of the "Wushuang Immortal Emperor", she thought of this little immortal as a minor nobody, and had no concerns about his backing. Since he provoked and angered her, she might as well kill him to vent her rage.

She raised her palm and unleashed it towards Fang Bai.

Above Fang Bai, the void trembled, an enormous palm condensed with Immortal Qi, forcefully pressing down.

"After all, she’s a high-rank Immortal Emperor expert, without some trump cards, this palm is truly difficult to block!"

Fang Bai’s earlier words seemed easy, but when the Nine-Headed Fairy initiated her attack, he did not dare to underestimate it.

He had only recently advanced to the Immortal Emperor Realm, and his realm had not yet stabilized completely. Moreover, at the Immortal Emperor stage, the strength difference between minor realms is even greater, thus going head-to-head, Fang Bai knew he wasn’t the Nine-Headed Fairy’s match.

Seeing the enormous Immortal Qi Palm roaring down from above, Fang Bai’s forehead Sea of Consciousness flashed with blood red light, and the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade appeared in his hand.

"Break it for me!"

Fang Bai lightly shouted, pointing the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade towards the sky, expanding it dozens of yards, instantly piercing through the Immortal Qi Palm.

He deftly twisted his wrist, the immense Blood-Drinking Mad Blade exuded a thread of supreme pressure and the Immortal Qi Palm collapsed and vanished with a "poof".

"This blade... is it actually an Emperor’s Instrument?"

The Nine-Headed Fairy gazed upon the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade in Fang Bai’s hand, sensing the fierce evil qi and strong bloody aura emanating from its blade, along with an invisible force akin to emperor might, she was taken aback.

She had not expected that a mere initial-rank Immortal Emperor immortal would possess an Emperor’s Instrument and even be able to control it to retaliate, this even exceeded her realm of understanding.

It was known that although she owned the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither as an Emperor’s Instrument, she could barely control it due to her high-rank Immortal Emperor cultivation, plus, the Emperor’s Instrument was a precious heirloom passed down by her ancestors. But this Wushuang Immortal Emperor, a mere initial-rank Immortal Emperor, controlling an Emperor’s Instrument was unheard of.

"Where did you obtain this Emperor’s Instrument?"

The Nine-Headed Fairy scrutinized the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade in Fang Bai’s hand, her eyes fervently asking.

Emperor’s Instruments are treasures of the Immortal Realm, coveted by countless immortals. Though the Nine-Headed Fairy already possessed the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither, if she could obtain yet another, she certainly wouldn’t refuse.

Fang Bai’s response to the Nine-Headed Fairy was the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade.

Fang Bai had no interest in chatting with the Nine-Headed Fairy, he swiftly pressed down with the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, its blade unleashed a blood light several hundreds of yards long, with earth-shattering momentum, it slashed towards the Nine-Headed Fairy’s head.

The Nine-Headed Fairy eyed Fang Bai’s Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, while Fang Bai knew the Nine-Headed Fairy possessed the Emperor’s Instrument Nine-Headed Fire String Zither. He too had the intention of claiming it for himself, preparing to gift it to the Dragon Maiden after obtaining it.

The Nine-Headed Fairy initially thought she could kill Fang Bai barehanded, but now that Fang Bai summoned an Emperor’s Instrument, she realized that without deploying her trump cards, she would be hard-pressed to succeed.

She then lightly tapped her forehead with her finger, where light flickered, the Nine-Headed Fire String Zither was already suspended in front of her.

She quickly plucked the zither strings, and a crescent-shaped force darted skyward, meeting Fang Bai’s blood light from the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade.

The crescent-shaped fierce light intersected with the blood light, provoking undulating ripples in the void, and then both forces of Immortal Qi simultaneously vanished into the void.

In this clash, both sides were evenly matched, neither gaining the upper hand.

However, at that instant, the Nine-Headed Fairy noticed a strange smile at the corner of Fang Bai’s mouth, and an uneasy feeling stirred within her heart.

The next moment, the Nine-Headed Fairy sensed a deadly severe threat, attacking from behind.

She was shaken, and caught unprepared, she could only shift her full power to shift her figure horizontally to the left to evade the sudden attack from behind.

"Pfft!"

"Uh..."

Though the Nine-Headed Fairy managed to avoid the direct attack from behind, the blade light grazed her shoulder, slicing off half, blood splattered as she let out a painful groan.

The Nine-Headed Fairy’s figure instantly slid a hundred yards, turned her head, and finally saw that the one attacking her from behind was an expressionless immortal.

The immortal also had a high rank in the Immortal Emperor Realm.

What shocked the Nine-Headed Fairy was how this high-rank Immortal Emperor appeared behind her without her noticing.

Remembering the strange smile that lingered on Fang Bai’s lips earlier, the Nine-Headed Fairy realized that high-rank Immortal Emperor must be related to him.

"Damn it!"

The Nine-Headed Fairy swiftly swallowed a Healing Immortal Pill, then transformed into a stream of light, and fled towards the distant sky.

Facing one opponent with an Emperor’s Instrument, whose combat power was even with her own, and another of equal cultivation level, and since she had suffered injuries, in their siege, not to mention victory, it would be unlikely to even preserve her life.

Thus, the Nine-Headed Fairy made a quick decision to escape.
