Chapter 141 Fierce Battle_3
At that instant, Lin Xiaolu felt she had almost forgotten how to breathe.
She could see a limb of the Remnant Beast stretching out, a jointed limb covered with spikes falling towards her direction. But what was merely a limb for the Remnant Beast appeared to Lin Xiaolu like a toppling giant tree, with no chance of dodging.
— "Don't even think about it!"
Another voice rang out from the sky.
Deep blue Magic Power surged wildly as Emerald Sparrow followed the Remnant Beast closely, gripping her magical weapon. She appeared like a streak of light and struck abruptly, slashing across the Remnant Beast's body.
Whether it was because her actions were too swift, or the Remnant Beast failed to notice her attack, this time, Emerald Sparrow's masterpiece faced almost no resistance, striking the Remnant Beast with ease.
The Flow of Magical Power burst forth from the blade of her masterpiece, adding several strikes to the giant moth. Blue light pierced directly through the Remnant Beast's body, shining out from its back.
Emerald Sparrow's attack nearly cleaved the giant moth in two.
"Emerald Sparrow!"
Only then did Lin Xiaolu finally catch her breath, seeing the Remnant Beast, which alone suffocated her with its presence, injured so effortlessly by Emerald Sparrow, her face unconsciously revealed a trace of joy.
But that joy didn't have the chance to transform into words of thanks.
For almost at the same moment Emerald Sparrow's Magic Power slashed through the Remnant Beast, the deep blue glow completely disappeared.
Everything that had passed through the moth's body—the blade's brilliance, the threads of Magic Power constructed by Emerald Sparrow, and even the unintentional Magic Power she exuded—all vanished.
The Magic Power Flow that should have split the Remnant Beast's body became nothingness, as if it had never existed at all, leaving no injury on the Remnant Beast.
"Do you feel the disparity, Cornflower?"
The Remnant Beast's voice poured directly into the minds of those present, seemingly taunting with a proud laugh, "Hehe, but it's really too boring to shatter you now. The show has just started, struggle a bit more."
The annihilative Magic Power flowed once again.
As the Remnant Beast's words ended, the deep blue Magic Power that had disappeared from thin air reappeared before everyone. Only this time, it was the Remnant Beast that was wielding it.
The process seemed lengthy, but in reality, it took less than a breath. All the released Magic Power was seized, and before Emerald Sparrow could even process what had happened, she could only attempt to reassemble her stance and try to reconstitute her magical gear and Spell Techniques for defense.
But it was still too slow.
After disappearing and reappearing, the masterpiece's bladed threads reversed their direction of attack, slashing heavily onto Emerald Sparrow at a speed none could see clearly.
Emerald Sparrow's masterpiece, originally woven to kill Remnant Beasts at chrysalis stage or higher with its lethal force. Both its blade sharpness and the Spell Technique structure intertwined were designed to easily cut through chrysalis shells.
Purely in terms of physical defense, Remnant Beasts were much stronger than Magical Girls, meaning an attack capable of injuring a chrysalis-stage Remnant Beast could inevitably harm a leaf-stage, even some Magical Girls at the bud stage with insufficient body strength.
And at this moment, to inflict damage on this clearly molt-stage Remnant Beast and to save Lin Xiaolu in time, Emerald Sparrow had no margin to hold back whatsoever.
— "Emerald Sparrow!"

Within Lin Xiaolu's cry of alarm, the masterpiece's blade easily penetrated the petite figure in the air.
