Euryale held her breath and waited patiently, ready for Mu Ningxue to fly above her.

She just needed to take out one of the two Mages to win the fight. As for Bola, he was no different from an ordinary Commander-level creature if he could not use the power of the Blood Tribe.

Mu Ningxue was focusing on the ground below her. It was difficult to find where Euryale was hiding from above, even though she was only hiding somewhere in the debris. If they were fighting in the desert, Ningxue would have no chance of finding the Medusa if Euryale hid under the sands.

Euryale finally found her opportunity, lunging at Mu Ningxue from below. Her gaping mouth was far wider than her own body, just like how snakes were able to devour creatures larger than they were.

Her serpent fangs were long and sharp. The poison from the slightest cut could paralyze a Tyrant Titan, let alone a full bite!

Euryale had gone all out. A Medusa would only bite their enemy like a mere snake as a weapon of last resort.

It was extremely risky for snakes to bite their enemies, since their heads and the killing point seven vertebrae down their neck were the most vulnerable. Whenever they snapped their heads forward to bite their enemies, their foes would fight back fiercely before the poison managed to spread in their blood. If their opponent hit their head, both of them would die!

It was why Medusae rarely bit their enemies. If they were doing so, they had to be quick and accurate!

A snake bite felt like an electric shock, and the snake would immediately recoil after landing the strike. Sharp pieces of ice were floating around Mu Ningxue. Euryale knew that not only would the ice combine into armor to protect her, it could also turn into deadly weapons and shred enemies who were close by.

Therefore, Euryale had to land her bite before the ice could respond, then she had to back away before the ice could retaliate and hurt her too!

A deadly bite!

Euryale’s attack was like a flash of lightning. She had returned to the debris in the blink of an eye. The pieces of ice remained floating above her, showing no intention of defending or counterattacking.

“It worked!” Euryale grinned. She was about to burst out laughing.

A late lightning strike landed on the spot Euryale had initially retreated to. It was Mo Fan’s Lightning Spell, just a second late. His spell only struck the afterimage that Euryale left behind.

“Three!” Euryale started counting down.

The poison only needed three seconds to fully paralyze her target. In three seconds, the icy beauty would fall from the sky stiffly. The only antidote was Euryale’s tear!

Her tear?

Euryale had not shed a single tear over the past few centuries! If the young man wanted to save the woman’s life, he would have to surrender himself. She would slowly torture him to death, and he would still not be able to save his woman. The woman’s face would soon be hers!

Euryale belatedly noticed that she seemed to have hit something solid. Her fangs had almost broken from the impact. The speed of her strike was so fast that she only felt the pain from her fangs after she recoiled.

She looked up and saw the woman shattering into pieces, just like a mirror.

There was nothing in the sky. Mu Ningxue had used her magic to create a decoy. Euryale let out a cry of frustration, but her location had already been exposed. Nine Lightning Halberds fell from the sky like meteorites!

Euryale was intending to sneak away when a Lightning Halberd landed on the ground and blocked her path. The Lightning Punishment Formation forced Euryale to escape in a different direction, but a few seconds later, a second Lightning Halberd landed close by. It almost pierced straight through her!

Euryale slithered across the ground, lightning-fast, but one Lightning Halberd after another landed along her trail. She was extremely quick, and almost escaped from Mo Fan’s Seal of the Nine Laws. Luckily, Mu Ningxue’s icy mist managed to slow her down in time, allowing the Lightning Halberds to trap her inside the Formation!

The Lightning Halberds were embedded in an S-shape, looking like magnificent electricity towers that had emerged from the ground out of nowhere. Lightning began to surge and flow between the halberds.

This time, Euryale was unable to escape. Her brute force and speed alone were not enough to escape from the powerful magic Formation. She immediately took a destructive hit from the lightning.

Her body was promptly scorched black. Her bones loosened, and her organs were destroyed, her cries of agony echoing in the sky. Even the loud rumbling of thunder could not cover her cries.

She continued to let out screams as if she had gone insane. Her eyes emitted a strange glow as if flames were about to erupt from them.

“She’s using her sorcery!” Bola realized Euryale was about to lose her mind. He warned, “Euryale, are you sure about this? You will never leave the Sacred City once you use your power, but we won’t necessarily be punished by the Sacred City!”

“I will still make you suffer!” Euryale snapped.

“Give us your Eye of Deception and we will stop!” Bola pointed at Euryale’s left eye.

“Never!” Euryale’s body reddened. Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue had to back away under the enormous pressure from the demon creature.

“Do you think you can hurt us? You only have two minutes. You won’t be able to kill any of us!” Bola stated calmly.

If Euryale decided to use her power, Bola no longer had to restrain himself, either. He had a reasonable excuse if he was captured by the Holy Judgment Court!

“Petrifying Skygaze!”

A pair of sparkling golden eyes appeared in the night sky before Euryale unleashed her power. They looked down menacingly at the petty lifeforms on the ground!

The eyes glittered. The light turned everything into stone.

“It’s you, you little b**ch!” Euryale realized who was after her when she saw the eyes.

“Apas, control your power! Otherwise, the Holy Court Mages will purge both of you!” Bola warned her.
