Chapter 1157: Aquamarine Python's Betrayal

Boom!

A fierce battle broke out immediately as wild energy shockwaves swept across the cold hallway.

Feng Lingyuan, Wang Kong, and the other top students worked together to stop the Blood Coffin Carrier. The other students tried their best to fend off the Black Coffin Carriers as well.

The Aquamarine Python that had suddenly appeared on the battlefield took advantage of the chaos. It tore through their defenses and, with astonishing speed, slithered towards Li Luo at the back.

Many of the students tried to stop it along the way. However, they were blown away by its enormous, mighty undulations of chilly energy, resulting in them spitting out blood from the terrifying aftershocks.

The energy shockwaves that came from the giant Aquamarine Python were more fearsome than they had imagined.

"Wei Chonglou, stop it!"

A sense of worry appeared in Li Hongyou's eyes as she watched the giant python dash towards Li Luo directly. However, she still had to support Feng Lingyuan and the rest. She could only shout at Wei Chonglou, who was closer to the rear to assist.

Hearing this, Wei Chonglou's face changed immediately. He stared at the giant python and noticed a graceful female figure partially fused into the top of its head. The woman and the snake seemed to have turned into a singular entity, and the sight was extremely creepy.

"What strong energy undulations!"

Fear appeared within Wei Chonglou's eyes. The strange Aquamarine Python did not seem to be any weaker than the Blood Coffin Carrier. How would he be able to stop it alone?

Besides, doing all this just to protect Li Luo?

Putting his life on the line against this mysterious, strong foe? To defend someone he didn't even like?

Wei Chonglou's eyes turned dark. He gritted his teeth and he dodged out of the Aquamarine Python's way. Li Luo, who was standing behind him, was completely exposed now.

"You can't blame me for this! There's no way I can stop it!"

Wei Chonglou said in his heart.

Then he whispered to himself, "Go for him!"

However, he sensed a strange gaze coming from the graceful figure on the python as he dodged out of its way. He did not know if it was simply his imagination.

There seemed to be icy murderous intent directed towards him behind that gaze. Wei Chonglou froze on the spot for a moment. Was it unhappy that he had given way? He had to be imagining things. How could there be such a strange enemy in this world?

Just as he was thinking about it, the roaring Aquamarine Python suddenly turned around. Its enormous body filled with ice-cold energy was like a river of death that spanned thousands of feet. It gushed through the air and charged towards him fiercely.

Terrifying amounts of energy enveloped the area. Wei Chonglou inevitably began to sweat. He could not help but yell angrily in his heart,

"Damn this monster! It didn't go for Li Luo but came for me instead?"

Wei Chonglou did not dare to hesitate. With a sharp cry, a crimson Heavenly Resonance Diagram spread across the sky like a sea of flames. In the next moment, a giant fire palm roared in the air and smashed down against the Aquamarine Python directly.

Bang!

A violent energy tempest erupted from the clash.

The giant fire palm was immediately submerged by a torrent of icy energy. Wei Chonglou's pathetic figure was sent flying into another hall as fresh blood spewed out of his mouth. The building crumbled and he was buried underneath.

After a few moments, he crawled out of the rubble. He wiped the traces of blood off his mouth and stared furiously at the Aquamarine Python, who had continued to charge towards Li Luo after sending him flying. He was fuming with anger. During their clash, he had faintly heard a cold voice.

"Trash who do not protect their comrades are better off dead."

Wei Chonglou almost couldn't help but curse at it. That thing was neither a complete monster nor a complete human, yet it was trying to teach him a lesson about morality?

Damn it!

Nonetheless, the Aquamarine Python was no longer bothered by him. After knocking Wei Chonglou out of the way, its enormous body exploded forward and dashed directly towards Li Luo.

Li Luo retreated rapidly. His expression was extremely ugly at this point.

This was because he was in an extremely unfavorable condition. With the outburst of corruption in his left arm, he could not spare any attention to all the troubles on the outside. He focused all his resonant power into resisting the corruption instead.

In other words, there was no way for him to fight at the moment. Even his mind was beginning to turn hazy.

The strange Aquamarine Python continued to charge directly towards him. It was emanating such terrifying energy waves that he felt like he was about to die.

Soon, it was impossible for him to run any further.

A light of determination flashed across Li Luo's eyes. He did not retreat anymore. Instead, he planted his feet firmly on the ground. The earth cracked apart like a turtle shell from the immense force.

He looked up at the incoming Aquamarine Python, prepared to use all his aces against it. If things turned ugly, he was prepared to awaken the Five-tailed Heavenly Wolf from its slumber. As for whether its ferocious energy would exacerbate the corruption's influence further? He had no time to worry about it when his life was at stake.

The Aquamarine Python roared and charged towards him.

Behind it, the Blood Coffin Carrier, who was busy fighting Feng Lingyuan and group, was delighted when he saw this. "Aquamarine Python, crush that little brat into pieces. Just bring his left arm back!"

Boom!

The Aquamarine Python bellowed. Its vicious mouth opened and it swallowed Li Luo up completely. Then the python turned into a black light and flew off into the distance.

The Blood Coffin Carrier was dumbfounded as he watched the Aquamarine Python rush away. Then he understood what was going on. He cried out angrily, "Damn Aquamarine Python! You dare snatch my True Devil Egg!? I'm going to kill you!"

The Blood Coffin Carrier roared angrily, his eyes turning blood-red. Mind-boggling amounts of corruption surged out of him and his terrifying body began to expand once again. He grew into a giant dozens of feet tall.

He then threw out a punch with the force of a meteor. It flew towards Wang Kong and sent him flying back.

When Feng Lingyuan and the rest landed attacks, frightening scars appeared all over his body. However, his flesh wriggled slightly and the injuries healed in the blink of an eye.

The Blood Coffin Carrier could not be bothered with Feng Lingyuan and the rest at this moment. He could not stand the thought of Aquamarine Python stealing his other half of the True Devil Egg. He stomped his feet, causing the ground to shatter, and he quickly flew towards the direction where the Aquamarine Python had gone.

The fierce battle turned chaotic once again.

Meanwhile, the Aquamarine Python was really swift. In just a few moments, it slithered into one of the abandoned halls. Its mouth opened, and Li Luo fell out of it.

At this moment, Li Luo was on high alert. As he suppressed the corruption in his left arm, he was prepared to go all-out in an instant.

However, just as he was thinking about how to fight for his life, a slender, jade hand suddenly stretched out of the giant python's mouth. The hand was holding a sharp, poisonous fang. Slowly, the graceful figure made its way out of the mouth, holding an aquamrine python staff.

Li Luo was stunned for a moment as he looked at the familiar weapon.

Then he heard a familiar laugh.

"It hasn't been that long since we last met. Why have you gotten yourself into such a predicament?"

The person was wearing a mask that covered half her face.

Li Luo stared at the half-covered face. Then he took another look at the staff. His eyes widened up and his shocked voice echoed in the silent hall.

"C-Cousin Lingjing?!"
