Zhang Hao watched as the Netherwing Bat King's countless sword shadows turned into malevolent spirits, whistling towards him. His face sank, and he roared, "Hundred Blade Slash!"
Zhang Hao instantly unleashed fifteen slashes.
Fifteen streaks of blade light tore through the void, instantly ripping apart the malevolent spirits that had approached.
"Sixteenth Slash!"
The terrifying sixteenth slash swept out, enveloping the surrounding ten-meter radius.
The Netherwing Bat King transformed into a massive black shadow, dodging Zhang Hao's slash. This slash only left a huge blade pit on the ground.
Such speed! Zhang Hao had already felt that the Netherwing Bat King's speed was very fast, but only now did he realize that its speed still exceeded his imagination.
His slash was actually unable to stop it.
No, this Phantom Killing Array is barely adequate for dealing with a Great Martial Master, but it's a bit strained for dealing with a Martial King. It won't take long before the Netherwing Bat King figures out the intricacies of this Phantom Killing Array and breaks free. After that, it will be troublesome to catch it again.
Therefore, Zhang Hao thought of a method.
"Nether Lotus Demonic Flame!"
The Nether Lotus Demonic Flame transformed into dozens of flames, shooting out in all directions.
"What is this?"
Even the Netherwing Bat King's speed was restrained by the power of the Nether Lotus Demonic Flame at this moment, making it impossible to dodge. Moreover, with the Netherwing Bat King's intuition, it could sense that the power of this flame was terrifying. If it were to touch even a trace, it would definitely pay a price. Therefore, the Netherwing Bat King was currently doing its best to evade the attack of this flame.
The flames spreading across the void limited the Netherwing Bat King's speed advantage to the extreme. This was also Zhang Hao's opportunity.
"Go to hell!"
"Hundred Blade Slash!"
Instantly, Zhang Hao unleashed seventeen slashes.
Terrifying blade shadows crisscrossed the void, like a cleaver, tearing the void apart inch by inch.
"Ghost Killing Sword Art!"
The Netherwing Bat King instantly felt as if its body was locked onto by a terrifying force, and even the hairs on its body stood on end. It roared and thrust out heavy sword shadows.
Over ten blade shadows struck down. The Netherwing Bat King's Ghost Killing Sword was shattered. The blade shadows descended like mountains, crushing down. This made the Netherwing Bat King feel as if the blood vessels all over its body were about to burst.
"Nether Shadow Shield!"
A light blue energy shield blocked in front of the Netherwing Bat King.
The terrifying seventeenth slash struck fiercely onto the Netherwing Bat King's body. The energy shield only blocked for less than a second. The Netherwing Bat King shrieked and flew backward like a kite with a broken string. After continuously breaking three large trees, it landed on the ground.
The Netherwing Bat King's pale eyes glared fiercely at Zhang Hao. With unwillingness and shock, it breathed its last and died.
"Ding dong! Congratulations Player Zhang Hao, you have killed the Netherwing Bat King. Experience points 100,000, True Qi 10,000, Frenzy Energy 10."
Zhang Hao shook his head, feeling a bit speechless. Facing a Martial King whose cultivation was lower than his own, the experience points were truly pitifully few!
After Zhang Hao deactivated the Phantom Killing Array, Xiao Jian, Ning Xue, Song Sitian, Yun Qiuyu, Gao Xinyu, and the other women hurried over together.
However, when they saw the corpse of the Netherwing Bat King lying dead on the ground, everyone was startled. Xiao Jian, in particular, had an expression of disbelief on his face. He rushed towards the body, crying and wailing, hugging the corpse and roaring, "Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin... What happened to you..."
Zhang Hao was a bit speechless and said to Xiao Jian, "Hey Brother Xiao, this isn't your..."
Xiao Jian let out a wild roar and lunged madly at Zhang Hao. His sword viciously thrust towards Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao: "..."
Xiao Jian was like a mad tiger, every sword strike was a desperate move.
However, Zhang Hao was currently at the Martial King (high stage). Facing Xiao Jian's attack was still quite easy for him.
However, after his continuous attacks had no effect, Xiao Jian became even more desperate.
Zhang Hao also grew a little impatient. He said angrily to Xiao Jian, "Xiao Jian, that's not your sister, calm down."
But how could Xiao Jian believe him? He attacked Zhang Hao even more frantically, every move aimed at his vital points.
Zhang Hao also grew a little impatient. Looking at the sharp sword Xiao Jian was thrusting, he didn't retreat but advanced, closing in.
"Storm Finger!"
Zhang Hao's hand met the sword light like a torrential downpour, and he flicked his finger. The Storm Finger directly struck the sword in Xiao Jian's hand. Xiao Jian felt a numbness in his tiger's mouth, and the sword flew out of his grasp.
Zhang Hao changed his finger into a grab, seizing his wrist. He said coldly to him, "What are you doing? Do you think that's really your sister? Come and see."
Zhang Hao pulled Xiao Jian over to Xiao Lin's corpse and ripped off the human skin mask from her cheek. Then he said to Xiao Jian, "See for yourself, is this your sister?"
Xiao Jian's eyes widened. At this moment, in his view, the person on the ground was not his sister at all, but the face of a man.
"This... What's going on?"
Zhang Hao said to the somewhat bewildered Xiao Jian, "This person came to kill me. He is an assassin. He disguised himself as your sister to approach me, but I saw through him."
Xiao Jian nodded slightly, but just looked at Zhang Hao and said, "Then... where is my sister?"
Zhang Hao said silently, "Did you have a conflict with your sister?"
Seeing that the corpse was not his sister, Xiao Jian breathed a sigh of relief. Now calm, he said somewhat helplessly, "You know, my sister has been spoiled since she was young. She always likes to throw Young Miss Dugu tantrums in the Mercenary Group. Today, I reprimanded her, and unexpectedly, she got angry and ran off by herself. I went to look for her, but I couldn't find her."
Zhang Hao knew that it was highly likely Xiao Lin had encountered the Netherwing Bat King, who was just trying to approach him. The Netherwing Bat King changed into her clothes to get close to him. And at this moment, it went without saying that Xiao Lin had very likely been killed.
"Xiao Jian, you need to be mentally prepared. At this moment, your sister, perhaps..."
Zhang Hao didn't finish the rest of his sentence, but the meaning was already very clear.
"Impossible, my sister can't be in trouble. Absolutely impossible. I must find her..." Xiao Jian's voice was very agitated.
Zhang Hao knew that Xiao Jian and Xiao Lin had a deep sibling bond. He felt that he also had some responsibility in this matter. Therefore, he patted his shoulder and said, "I'll help you."
Zhang Hao had Little Dragon sniff the women's tight-fitting clothes the Netherwing Bat King had been wearing. These clothes were obtained by the Netherwing Bat King from Xiao Lin. Naturally, her scent remained on them.
Little Dragon nodded at Zhang Hao and darted towards the dense forest in the southeast direction.
Zhang Hao knew that Little Dragon must have discovered something, so he said to Xiao Jian, "Let's follow it."
The group followed Little Dragon, stopping and going. Soon, about three hundred meters to the southeast, they found the body of a girl wearing underwear. This girl was precisely Xiao Lin. However, at this moment, Xiao Lin had already lost her breath.
"Sister!" Xiao Jian cried out in grief and rushed over.
