Chapter 48 The Battle is in Full Swing
When the fourth sister saw the longbow formed from flowing water in the third sister's hand, a glint of light flashed in her eyes, and she immediately had an idea.
With a thought, a blazing flame burst forth from his body, tumbling and coalescing in mid-air to transform into a crimson longbow. The bow was formed from pure flame, its light swirling and its heat intense; a string of tiny sparks even danced on the bowstring.
Fourth Sister reached out and grabbed the Flame Bow. A scorching power immediately surged from the bow into her arm, resonating strongly with her innate supernatural abilities.
Without hesitation, she conjured a flaming arrow, nocked it on the bowstring, drew it back to its full length, and aimed at the densest area of the leopard-headed buzzards in the air.
"call out!"
The arrow left the bowstring, leaving a long trail of fire in the air, like a burning meteor streaking across the night sky, and shot fiercely into the flock of leopard-headed buzzards with its blazing tail.
"boom!"
Flames exploded, and crimson waves of fire swept outwards.
The three leopard-headed buzzards were instantly engulfed in flames, their feathers turning to ash, their flesh sizzling under the intense heat. The surrounding leopard-headed buzzards, affected by the heatwave, had their feathers charred yellow and scattered in panic.
The three-headed leopard buzzard screamed as it plummeted from the sky, crashing to the ground like burning meteorites, sending sparks flying.
Seeing this, a tacit understanding flashed in the eyes of the third sister.
With a rapid-fire water bow, streams of water arrows flew out like a whirlwind, striking the ferocious birds affected by the heatwave.
The water arrows pierced their bodies, water and fire clashed, cold and heat combined, creating a double shock of ice and fire. The ferocious birds cried out in agony, their bodies convulsing and tumbling in the air. Some exploded and died instantly, while others fell stiffly downwards.
The third and fourth sisters, one formed a bow from water, the other from fire; one as calm as water, the other as passionate as fire.
Water arrows and rockets were fired alternately, one cold and one hot, one soft and one hard, weaving an impenetrable net of death in the air.
The rocket exploded in flames, and the water arrow delivered the precise finishing blow; the two coordinated flawlessly. The leopard-headed buzzard and the fierce owl in the sky were forced to retreat step by step, their feathers flying everywhere, wailing incessantly, as they fell from the sky like dumplings being dropped into a pot.
The wolf pack on the ground was also covered by a rain of water rockets.
The rockets landed and exploded, scattering flames everywhere. The wild wolves' fur was ignited, and they howled and rolled on the ground. Water arrows followed closely behind, killing the burned wolves one by one. In the blink of an eye, the wolf pack suffered heavy casualties, with corpses piled up on the ground and blood forming streams that flowed down the hillside.
"good!"
Cai Xuan was thrilled by what he saw. He thrust his spear forward and pierced through a charging wolf.
The spearhead pierced the wolf's chest and exited through its back. The wolf let out a final howl, its legs went limp, and it twitched a few times on the spear shaft before becoming still. Cai Xuan forcefully flung the corpse off the platform, raising his arm and shouting, "Well done!"
Xi'er's eyes lit up with excitement.
Seeing her third and fourth sisters' incredible prowess, she couldn't lag behind. She wielded her long axe with the speed of a windmill, its blade flashing in all directions, crescent-shaped beams crisscrossing the battlefield. A wolf pounced, its head severed by a single blow; two leopard-headed buzzards swooped down from the air, attacking from both sides. She spun around and swept her axe across, the blade slicing through the air, simultaneously cleaving both birds in half at the waist.
Blood splattered all over her, but she fought with even greater ferocity, her small face beaming with a triumphant smile.
Yun'er planted her spear on the ground, opened her divine eye between her brows, and shot out streaks of lightning, like snakes of lightning that snaked and writhed, biting at the wild wolves.
"Crackling"
In an instant, thunder roared and lightning flashed. Those struck fell to the ground, convulsing, their skin and fur charred black, and white smoke billowing from their mouths.
Those with bad luck were struck by lightning and turned into charred remains, lying stiffly on the ground, crumbling into powder at the slightest touch.
The sixth golden melon, watching from the vine, was filled with excitement. Seeing how amazing her sisters were, she couldn't be any less capable.
A faint, eerie light flashed from the melon's body, and an invisible beam of light shot out from it, like the scythe of death, silently sweeping across the battlefield. Wherever the light passed, wolves and owls suddenly stiffened, their eyes glazed over, as if their souls had been ripped away, and they fell straight to the ground.
They had no wounds on their bodies, but they were no longer breathing.
A wild wolf that lunged at Cai Xuan was struck by a ghostly light mid-air, its body went limp, and it fell from the sky, crashing down in front of Cai Xuan's feet, splattering his shoes with blood.
Although the Fifth Golden Melon didn't possess the same formidable offensive power as her sisters, she used her extraordinary senses to pinpoint the enemy's movements for her older brothers and sisters. Streams of light and invisible fluctuations covered the battlefield; she clearly saw where ferocious beasts were attacking and where gaps might be exploited.
"Brother, to the left!"
"Big sister, behind us!"
"Second sister, there are two on the right front!"
Her voices rose and fell, like guiding lights on a battlefield, allowing everyone to anticipate and respond calmly.
The other little golden gourds weren't idle either. Although the seventh and eighth golden gourds couldn't compete yet, they vigorously shook their bodies on the vines, their light flashing as they cheered on their older brothers and sisters.
"Go, eldest sister! Go, second sister! Go, third sister! Go, fourth sister!"
The child's innocent voice echoed in the night sky, adding a touch of warmth to the people who were fighting a bloody battle.
Seeing his men die in large numbers, the Wolf King could no longer sit still. He roared to the sky, his voice filled with anger and madness, as if to say: You ants, how dare you kill my men!
The Wolf King himself charged forward.
Its body was like a moving small mountain, twice the shoulder height of an ordinary wild wolf. Its entire body was covered with iron-gray, stiff fur, its muscles were bulging, its fangs were like knives, and its claws were like hooks. Its tall body stepped on the ground, leaving a deep crater in the soil beneath its feet.
It exudes a fierce aura, like a ferocious god emerging from an ancient battlefield, inspiring awe in all who behold it.
The wolf king leaped onto the platform and landed heavily, causing the entire wooden house to tremble.
"Let me do it!" Xi'er's eyes burned with fighting spirit as she charged towards the Wolf King, long axe in hand.
"Watch out, big sister!"
The third and fourth sisters spoke up at the same time, raising their water and fire bows and providing support with water and fire arrows to clear obstacles for Xi'er.
"Haa"
Xi'er swung her axe swiftly, the blade whistling through the air. The axe flash, like a bolt of lightning, aimed straight for the Wolf King's face. The Wolf King roared, its right claw lashing out and colliding fiercely with the axe blade.
"Clang!"
Sparks flew and the sound of metal clashing was deafening.
The wolf king's strength far surpassed that of ordinary wolves; its claw strike possessed the force of ten thousand jin. However, Xi'er, with her innate superhuman strength, held her own against him. The two clashed head-on, each retreating three steps, the wooden floor beneath their feet creaking under their weight.
A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Wolf King; it hadn't expected this little girl to possess such great power.
But it quickly became enraged, opened its blood-red maw, and pounced on Xi'er. Claws, fangs, and iron tail—three attacks were launched simultaneously, pouring down on Xi'er like a storm.
Xi'er was fearless, her long axe flying in her hand, slashing, chopping, sweeping, and parrying the wolf king's attacks one by one.
The two fought fiercely on the platform, kicking up dirt and debris wherever they went.
