Chapter 312 Melee
Xiao Han held the Phoenix Feather Whip in his hand, while Long Chuqing was protected behind him. The three bat demons chose to attack Qingying, Qingshan, and Qingsong, who were closest to them.
The bat demon's claws were already within reach.
"Everyone retreat and get out of the way."
Xiao Han shouted and took two steps forward. His long whip, accompanied by a whistling sound as it tore through the air, suddenly lashed out from left to right, attempting to intercept the deadly claws that were pouncing on Qingying and the other two.
The bat two closest to Xiao Han was forced to dodge to the side by this fierce attack, and the whip's body narrowly grazed the edge of its wing membrane.
It knew this whip was extraordinary; if it struck it, it would instantly tear its skin and flesh apart, just like Bat Six.
But Bat Da and Bat Si nimbly dodged the incoming whips, continuing to flap their wings, which carried a foul stench, and swooped straight at Green Mountain and Green Pine, their sharp claws aimed directly at their throats and heads.
Qingying, Qingshan, and Qingsong simultaneously used one foot to lightly tap their feet, leaned back, and retreated to avoid the attack.
At the same time, they also noticed that the piercing shriek had suddenly weakened considerably, as if an invisible hand had blocked their ears, isolating them from most of the sound.
The original sharp and piercing sound disappeared instantly, turning into a muffled buzzing sound, which was reduced to a tolerable level.
Without the stinging and dizziness, they felt their minds immediately clear.
Once their minds cleared, Qingshan and Qingsong quickly regained their footing and swiftly swung their swords horizontally to intercept the claws that were lunging at them.
"Zheng——"
Green Mountain's longsword pressed against Bat Four's sharp claws.
"Shoot-"
Aoyama gripped his sword with both hands and unleashed a full-force attack. The blade slashed fiercely across the claws, sending sparks flying. Three of the longer claws were sliced off by the sharp blade.
At the same time, the immense force knocked Bat Four backward. Although Bat Four managed to regain its balance by flapping its wings in time, it still crashed into the wall of the wooden house due to the lack of space inside, making a dull thud.
Meanwhile, in the dimly lit room, Fu Da's sharp claws gleamed coldly, like a deadly scythe, swooping down towards Qing Song with a stench of blood!
Meanwhile, it continued to open its sharp snout and emit a low growl, the sound still shrill and piercing.
Fortunately, with Fei Feng's help, they were not greatly affected.
The longsword in Qingsong's hand shot out through the air with a muffled hum, precisely meeting the bat that lunged at his face.
The larger of the bats was larger than the others, and also much stronger.
After its claws were blocked, it immediately swung its winged arms at the pine tree's head.
Its wings, carrying a strong wind, attacked the pine tree with great force; if hit, it would surely cause serious injury.
At this moment, Qingsong's sword was still fighting against Fuda's claws. If he wanted to avoid the attack of Fuda's winged hand, he could only forcefully push it away or choose to retreat.
Just then, Qingzhou quickly stepped forward and blocked one of Fu Da's winged arms. At the same time, he swiftly changed the direction of his sword, aiming the tip at the wing membrane, intending to pierce it.
Unfortunately, Qingzhou's attack failed to pierce its wing membrane.
The bat's wing membrane is relatively thick and very tough, and its hardness has also been improved after the upgrade.
The two bat demons that were severely injured by Xiao Han earlier were so badly hurt because they were hit by the Phoenix Feather Whip.
Phoenix feathers are hard and incredibly sharp, capable of easily cutting through anything.
If they were facing ordinary swords, they might not be so easily defeated.
Upon realizing that the bat demon's wing membrane could not be easily pierced, Qingzhou was slightly startled at first, then quickly changed his strategy and moves. Before the bat demon could react, he concentrated his inner strength on his longsword, tilted the blade, and slashed heavily across the bat's large wing membrane from the inside out.
He thought to himself, if one place can't be pierced, then there must be weak points on the wing, and I refuse to believe that it can't be damaged in the slightest.
Sure enough, the thickness and hardness of the wing membranes on the wings were different, and the longsword left two sizable nicks in the weakest parts of the wing membranes.
Realizing Qingzhou's intention, Fuda had no time to dodge, because its two curved claws were stuck in Qingsong's sword and it could not break free for a moment.
A sharp pain shot through the wing membrane, and the bat ambassador flapped its wings vigorously, trying to break free from the pine tree's grasp.
Qingsong dodged the wildly flailing winged arms by sidestepping them, while simultaneously rotating the sword that was stuck in the claws to pull it out. Then, he used the force to push the bat backward.
At this moment, the bat was somewhat flustered. Now that its wing membrane was injured, it had to maintain its balance while flying and also guard against the opponent's sword attacks.
It couldn't understand why they looked like they weren't in any pain. Did the sound waves have no effect on them?
At first, they all showed signs of pain, indicating that the sound waves were effective against them, but now they have all regained their momentum.
Could it be that the sound waves have malfunctioned?
Qingsong and Qingzhou simultaneously unleashed their concentrated inner force in a slashing attack on Fuda, the two sharp sword energies from the left and right directly blocking Fuda's retreat.
No matter which way it tried to dodge, it would be affected by the sword energy. Seeing that it was too late to avoid it, it desperately chose to fold its wings to cover its body.
Two slashes struck the bat one after the other, tearing two rifts in the winged creature that was blocking its way.
The bat's two wings were damaged at the same time, causing it to lose its balance and let out a scream before crashing to the ground.
Qingsong and Qingzhou gave the bat no chance to catch its breath, and once again drew their swords and thrust them fiercely at it.
The bat was still struggling in pain on the ground. Its wings were destroyed and it could not fly to avoid the attack. In its frantic struggle, Qingzhou's sword had already pierced the root of its left wing, pinning it firmly to the ground and completely crippling its ability to move.
As the pine tree's sword hurtled straight toward its heart, the bat raised its sharp claws and flailing futilely, trying to block and interfere.
However, Qingsong avoided the attack range of its sharp claws, and its longsword pierced the heart with unparalleled precision.
At the same time, Qingzhou also exerted all its strength to completely cut off its left flank.
To prevent it from launching a final counterattack and using other moves, Qingsong twisted the hilt of his sword and completely crushed its heart.
"puff!"
The foul-smelling blood gushed from the bat's mouth and chest, its body stiffened abruptly, and its screams ceased abruptly.
The dangling claws stopped thrashing about, and the body twitched twice before falling still.
On the other side, Bat Two, after dodging Xiao Han's whip, attempted to attack Qing Ying again.
Xiao Han's attack bought Qingying time to adjust. With the sound waves no longer interfering, Qingying had already adjusted her state. Before Fu Er could attack, she took the lead and leaped up, sending a sword aura of concentrated internal energy straight towards it.
In the blink of an eye, Bat Two became the passive party.
It hurriedly flapped its wings to dodge to the side, nimbly avoiding the incoming sword energy once again. The sword energy struck the wooden house behind it, leaving a deep crack in the wall.
Having been ambushed twice, Bat Two no longer dared to act rashly.
