Chapter 457: Chapter 457 The Crisis of the Ancestral Dragon Bodhi
About twenty kilometers away from the resort hotel, in the midst of a lush jungle, several dark shadows moved silently forward at a terrifying speed, like specters in the night.
Following close behind were more dark figures, relentlessly pursuing them.
These people were moving at speeds beyond human limits and it was impossible to discern just how many groups there were!
Though the exact number of groups was unknown, relative to others, everyone had one target in mind—the lone figure at the very front!
"Snow Woman, you can’t escape. Leave He Luo behind, and you may leave alive; otherwise, today will be your end!"
A deep voice boomed through the forest like rolling thunder, resonating through the air!
Indeed, the person at the front was none other than the Snow Woman, and she had He Luo in her possession. She had not expected these mad dogs to stick to her so soon after she got it, much less in such a relentless chase.
Suddenly, a cold gleam, like a bolt of lightning, tore through the silence of the night, resembling a meteor falling swiftly from the sky!
"Whoosh!"
The cold gleam carried the sound of tearing through the air, and in the blink of an eye, it was right behind her.
Instantly, an intense aura of death enveloped the Snow Woman!
Just as the cold gleam was about to strike the Snow Woman, her body seemed to grow eyes of its own as she abruptly tilted to the side and dodged!
"Swoosh!"
The cold gleam brushed past the Snow Woman!
After dodging the cold gleam, the Snow Woman quickly continued to charge forward.
But the next moment, the cold gleam appeared again.
This time, there were three beams of cold gleam, hurtling toward her in a "品" formation—left, right, and center—blocking off all possible escape routes.
This time, the Snow Woman had no chance to dodge!
"Swoosh!"
The Snow Woman spun around, lashing out quickly with the soft whip in her hand!
"Crack!"
A sound like a firecracker exploding rang out, and the three cold gleams were knocked to the ground by the Snow Woman.
Even though the Snow Woman had knocked down the three cold gleams, she was immediately surrounded by everyone at the same time.
Cold murderous intent filled the faces of these individuals, cruel killing intent brewing in their eyes, like the arrival of the Grim Reaper!
"Snow Woman, hand over He Luo or today you will surely die here!"
One of the men, a burly middle-aged man with a rough look, stared intently at the Snow Woman, whose face was partially obscured by a golden mask, and spoke in a cold voice.
The Snow Woman’s eyes, cold and sharp, slowly swept over the men as she replied icily, "Do you think you’re capable?"
As her voice fell, the Snow Woman moved. In a flash, her figure vanished from the spot, and the soft whip in her hand lashed out like a venomous snake, striking at the man who had spoken!
The man, already on high alert, dodged to the side immediately upon seeing the Snow Woman’s whip come at him.
But the Snow Woman, as if anticipating his every evasive move, snorted coldly. With a flick of her wrist, the whip seemed to come to life, coiling like a dragon around the man’s neck.
Without allowing the man a moment to react, the Snow Woman forcefully yanked her right hand!
"Crack!"
Long Zu Bodhi yanked hard, and the whip around the man’s neck snapped his throat!
"Overestimating yourself, you think you can kill me?" Long Zu Bodhi said disdainfully!
This scene took place in the blink of an eye. Before the crowd could react, the fight was already over.
For a moment, the gazes directed at Long Zu Bodhi were filled with an unprecedented level of vigilance.
The title ’Snow Maiden’ was certainly not unfounded; her moves were ruthless and cunning, taking the opponent’s life with decisive ferocity.
After killing the man, Long Zu Bodhi did not continue to attack. What she wanted was an iron-blooded method, to serve as a deterrent to others, to let them know that provoking her was tantamount to courting death.
She was putting pressure on the others, psychological pressure!
"Who else wants to seek death?"
Although she, Long Zu Bodhi, was not as formidable as Ye Xunhuan, nor did she have her own kingdom in the underworld like the undisputed king Ye Xunhuan, she was no pushover.
These years in the underworld were not spent in vain!
Faced with the boundlessly arrogant Long Zu Bodhi, everyone’s expressions turned cold in an instant.
"If you don’t want to die, get out of my way. If you wish for death, I’ll grant it!"
"Snow Maiden, as long as you hand over He Luo, then the world will be wide enough for you to roam free!" a blond-haired, blue-eyed man with a hawk nose stared at Long Zu Bodhi and said!
"If you want He Luo, you have the guts to take it yourself." Long Zu Bodhi replied coldly!
"Snow Maiden, since you’re asking for death, then we can’t be blamed."
As soon as his words fell, the blond-haired, blue-eyed man immediately lunged with his sharp sword towards Long Zu Bodhi.
The moment the blond-haired man moved, the others also sprang into action, plunging the scene into unprecedented chaos.
Facing the crowd surging towards her with murderous intent, behind her mask, Long Zu Bodhi’s face was filled with an unprecedented gravity!
In single combat, she feared none among them, but a group fight made her wary; after all, even a fierce tiger could not hold off a pack of wolves!
In an instant, Long Zu Bodhi’s whip became like her third hand, endowed with life. With each lash, it whistled through the air like flowing clouds and water, and coupled with her graceful movements, she did not show any sign of panic even amidst such chaos!
At this moment, the entire forest was engulfed in a thick aura of murderous intent, filled with a heavy atmosphere.
Just as these people were engaged in a fierce battle with Long Zu Bodhi, several figures stood not far away!
"Uncle Xie, when do we make our move?" a delicate yet cold-looking woman couldn’t help asking the middle-aged man beside her!
"Don’t rush, let them fight like dogs first!" the man said in an even tone.
"But He Luo is a treasured relic of our Huaxia, are we just going to..."
"You think He Luo alone is attracting all these people?" the middle-aged man cut her off: "There’s definitely someone behind this, and just like us, they’re all thinking of waiting for the mantis to catch the cicada, with the oriole behind!"
"Besides, do you really think the Snow Maiden is that easy to deal with? These people thinking they can take her down—it’s not that simple!" the man said emphatically: "Moreover, who knows if the Snow Maiden has any accomplices!"
Just at that moment, a cold light slashed through the air like thunder, tearing through the atmosphere and stabbing fiercely at Long Zu Bodhi!
Suddenly, Long Zu Bodhi felt an intense aura of death enveloping her, as if she had fallen into an ice cave, a chill rising from her head to her toes!
This sword, like lightning, like thunder, was so fast it gave her no chance to react.
At this moment, Long Zu Bodhi felt as though she saw the grim reaper beckoning her!
