Chapter 359 The Last Stand Counterattack!
Chapter 359 The Last Stand Counterattack!
Xiankelai Ding Jing, a well-known figure in the catering business of Yangchuan City, was quite a normal sight at the exchange event. It was simply that the event was nearing its end, and she was just running late.
But as soon as she entered, Ding Jing locked eyes with Hong Feifei on the stage, tens of meters apart, glaring at each other like two fighting roosters. The moment their gazes met, Ding Jing's lips curled into a cold smirk, while Hong Feifei was visibly flustered. The knife that should have been slicing towards the belly shell of the Overlord Turtle veered off slightly, nicking the rope binding the creature.
The rope used to bind the Overlord Turtle was made of special nylon, as thick as a pinky finger. Even after soaking in water, not even a dozen strong men could break it. It wasn't just talk that it could withstand a thousand jin of force.
Coupled with a special binding technique, it wouldn't matter if it was an Overlord Turtle or even a miniature version of an Overlord Dragon; the creature would be tied up tightly. Even if the Overlord Turtle grew another hundred years, it would have no chance of breaking free.
Such are the ways of the world: one thing brings down another, and a change in approach can lead to a completely different outcome. A nylon rope that couldn't be torn apart by a dozen strong men was no match for the thin knife in the hands of the frail Hong Feifei, and broke easily into two pieces!
From the moment Ding entered the venue to when Hong Feifei accidentally cut the rope, only a few seconds had passed, and all eyes were still on Ding.
The only one who had resigned itself to fate, the Overlord Turtle, with eyes as small as mung beans, eagerly looked around and discovered that the bindings on its body had suddenly loosened significantly!
It instinctively stretched its third leg.
Since it relied solely on this leg for walking and swimming due to the other half of its body only having this one leg, it was extraordinarily robust and strong. With such a push, the rope that had already been severed snapped completely.
The Overlord Turtle was almost moved to tears with happiness!
How should one put it? It had just resigned itself to death, yet at the brink of life and death, it suddenly found freedom. Was this the heavens playing with it, or had Goddess Nüwa manifested and finally decided to help?
If it were just a turtle, even an aggressive snapping turtle, the first instinct at this moment would surely be to scamper away!
But this was an Overlord Turtle!
As a ferocious Overlord Turtle, its sovereign aura surged forth from its now unencumbered, bloodied shell, and without any hesitation, it stretched its long neck, its sharp teeth gleaming like rows of chipped rice grains, and bit down hard towards the nearby Hong Feifei!
Hong Feifei, being a skilled chef, immediately sensed something was wrong the moment her knife touched the rope. Her heart skipped a beat and she shifted her focus from Ding back to the Overlord Turtle.
As she looked down, she saw a maw filled with sharp teeth, along with a foul stench, lunging at her delicate wrist.
If the bite landed, her wrist would be snapped off instantly.
"Be careful!" Ding, who was witnessing the scene from afar, suddenly widened her eyes and screamed.@@@@
Oddly enough, although the two of them had been at loggerheads just moments ago, Ding's voice was now filled with genuine concern...
In the midst of the chaos, Hong Feifei quickly retracted her wrist, and the Overlord Turtle ended up biting the knife instead.
A grating sound that was agonizing to the ears followed, and sparks flew as the steel knife was fiercely clamped by the jaws.
Hong Feifei, terrified, fell on her bottom, completely shocked. She sat there with her mouth agape, staring blankly at the giant turtle on the counter.
Taking advantage of its long neck, the turtle pushed itself on the counter and flipped its huge body over. Its powerful hind leg kicked hard against the metal surface.
With a loud clang, the metal counter was dented by the kick. The Overlord Turtle used this force to leap off the counter, spitting out the now-deformed knife and letting out a hoarse roar as it charged into the crowd, causing havoc!
"Ahh!" A blood-curdling scream echoed through the banquet hall as Hong Feifei fell to the ground, her trouser leg immediately stained red, her voice quivering with pain.
"Feifei!" Ding's eyes were filled with rage; she shrieked and lunged towards the Overlord Turtle. But after just one step, her ankle twisted, her high heel snapped, and Ding fell to the ground.
When Suming came to the rescue of Ren Chen and arrived at the Overlord Turtle's side, what he saw was this scene: Hong Feifei lying on the ground like a woman who had just given birth, with blood everywhere beneath her.
The Overlord Turtle stubbornly clung to the side of her thigh, its hind legs pushing against the ground, furiously tearing back, determined to feast on the tender flesh of Hong Feifei's thigh!
Being bitten and having a chunk of flesh torn off are two entirely different feelings; the latter could completely break a person's will to fight, especially when it was the thigh, an area with plenty of flesh.
Hong Feifei's eyes were blurred with tears, the fierce energy from before had completely vanished, and the aspect of a girl afraid of pain and lacking courage took over. Through her hazy vision, she saw someone approach and wailed with a crying voice, "Help..."
"Hey... Su... whoever... please help her..." Ding recognized Suming and called out in a hoarse voice.
The Overlord Turtle didn't care if they were crying for help or not; the screams and blood excited it even more!
When you slaughter me, does my cry for help work?! Now it's your turn to experience what it means to cry for help to no avail, to call upon heaven and earth and find no response!
The louder you scream, the more excited I become!
The Overlord Turtle was covered in blood, mostly from the blood that had dripped from its frilly edges. It clamped onto Hong Feifei's thigh, viciously ripping the flesh while she, still somewhat conscious, braced her hands against the bloody floor, trying hard to move her body towards the direction of the turtle's pull, leaving a trail of blood along the way.
"Let go!" Suming roared, and a surge of spiritual power enveloped the Overlord Turtle.
Under the influence of the spiritual power, the Overlord Turtle hesitated for a moment, torn between revenge and obedience. But then, it chose vengeance.
"Do you want to die, or do you want to live?" Suming immediately offered a choice that left the Overlord Turtle with no options.
Reluctantly, the Overlord Turtle finally let go and slowly retracted its neck, its two small eyes watching Suming warily.
"Su Meng, keep an eye on it. Hit it if it moves again," Suming called out, and only then did he kneel down to inspect Hong Feifei's wounds.
She was bleeding heavily, her trousers were torn, and there was a row of bloody bite marks on the outside of her white thigh. Fortunately, Hong Feifei hadn't pulled against the Overlord Turtle, but moved with its force, otherwise, she would have really lost a couple of pounds of thigh meat.
Even so, she would still likely need dozens of stitches, but thankfully it wasn't life-threatening. It's just a pity for those nice legs. It would've been great to enjoy them for a year, but now, being able to enjoy them until Children's Day would be quite an achievement...
"Have you had your fill, call a doctor..." Hong Feifei said with a mournful face.
Hearing her voice still so full of strength, Suming breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to Ding and said, "It's okay now, just disfigurement of the thigh, she won't die. Nangong Huang, call 120."
Upon hearing this, Ding visibly relaxed, and exhaled deeply.
But then, her pretty face chilled, and she said icily, "Life or death, it's none of my business."
—————— End of Line————
With Children's Day just around the corner, it's time to seize the moment and have some fun... uh, what am I talking about...
