Without any hesitation, Wandong swept forth the sword. Then a couple of bleeding chopped arms dropped onto the ground forthwith, squirting out fountain-like bloodstreams. And the ground turned strikingly red in the blink of an eye.
Giving out sad and shrill cries, the underlings flopped onto the floor and writhed in pain. The ghastly scene sent chills down the spines of the present students of the Qingyun Academy of Tactic Formations. Even their hairs bristled with fear.
Wandong let out a hum and shouted at the underlings, sword pointed at them, "Bear it in mind! Go and tell your masters, we're not done yet. I'm gonna pay a visit to his residence in person and make him pay his price for what happened today."
Unable to speak due to the unbearable pain, the underlings nodded their heads ceaselessly.
Wandong got detached from them and looked over at Leng Yuecui and Jin Mu. What he saw raised his eyebrows again.
It might be a plausible speculation that Leng Yuecui had lost out to Jin Mu for too many times. Otherwise, she wouldn't have appeared as if she had feared him in spite of herself. She retained a look of jitteriness in the duel with Jin Mu, unable to give the rein to her martial capacity. Therefore, she stayed repressed by Jin Mu from the outset, and the odds had been exceedingly against her.
"Heh...Leng Yuecui, being a woman, you're supposed to be tender. Don't you find it rude to act like that?" Jin Mu said in a sneering tone. He appeared rather at ease ― he could get around to teasing her while flipping away her attacking palm.
"Xu Yaoting only has a false and nice appearance, unlike me ― a real macho man! Do you feel up to a go with me? Hahaha..." Jin Mu went on with his frivolous words.
Being at a disadvantage, compounded with Jin Mu's ridicule, Leng Yuecui got overwhelmed with indignation and lost control of her moves accordingly. Jin Mu was terribly insidious ― while teasing Leng Yuecui with light-minded remarks, he was not in the least soft-hearted. Spotting she showing a weak link, he put on a merciless look and waved his fists at her with unstoppable momentum.
Leng Yuecui was unable to take his deadly attack. She let out a scared shout and began to retreat nonstop in spite of herself as if she had been on a skip board.
"Heh...Leng Yuecui, lie down there as I bid you!" Jin Mu commanded. Beating Leng Yuecui to it, he wouldn't give her any chance to get back. His offensive got increasingly ruthless, which revealed his decisiveness to have Leng Yuecui cornered.
Leng Yuecui was about to break down a forceful gale abruptly darted along. The gale came in such a mighty and swift manner that Jin Mu even got zoned out and let go of Leng Yuecui in spite of himself. And he even retreated for a few steps.
After making a narrow escape from Jin Mu, Leng Yuecui's heart still fluttered with fear. She looked back at Wandong and was about to extend her gratitude, when Wandong struck in with a stern reprimand, "What are you doing? Sleepwalking?"
"I..." Leng Yuecui stammered in an agonized tone. Having been upset by Jin Mu's attack and filthy words, she didn't expect that Wandong didn't say anything to comfort her. Instead, he even told her off in such a serious manner. Leng Yuecui's eyes glistened with tears.
"You are in the mood of weeping? Don't you know how much you have humiliated the Qingyun Empire!" Wandong went on relentlessly. He took no notice of Leng Yuecui's tears and deliberately inflicted a dressing down on her.
Unable to take it any longer, Leng Yuecui finally broke down, tears cascading down her cheeks.
