Xia Ye's anger is far more than what it appears on the surface.

When the inspection began, she already felt something was wrong - the atmosphere in the entire airship seemed to be mixed with some foreign matter, making her feel obviously stagnant.

The main structure of the airship is composed of the true bodies of Spider Sakura and Yalu, and the energy is provided by the Star Vein Furnace, which has similar properties to the Star Child.

The level of existence of these things is far beyond the reach of humans, so if you want to interfere with them, you also need a similar level of power.

So who could sneak onto the ship without anyone else noticing?

"...Or rather, that guy didn't come in from outside at all."

Although others are not quite clear about what she did before, Xia Ye is not a fool who would forget what she did.

When the possibility of an outsider lurking was ruled out, she immediately thought of an unacceptable but very reasonable explanation.

But before she could begin to verify her idea, the other party, as if he had anticipated this reaction, launched a merciless attack on her.

……

"You think that simple attack can defeat me? You wish!"

As he jumped down from the airship, Xia Ye also weaved a huge black sickle in his hand.

After seeing the almost furious Aries, the woman who had been calm and composed finally took her right hand back from behind her back.

This also meant that she had not intended to fight seriously until now for the first time.

"Heh... you really look down on me."

But even so, the other party still did not take out any weapons - the contemptuous attitude remained the same, without any change at all.

So Xia Ye no longer tried to communicate with his opponent. He just silently swung the sickle in his hand, kicked the ground hard, and leaped towards the woman.

The pitch-black sickle was like a crescent moon, leaving strange yet graceful traces in the air. At the same time, the clothes on Xia Ye's body released countless imperceptible silk threads, weaving a dense network in the surrounding space.

This was a compound killing move - if the opponent tried to move to evade or counterattack, the threads would instantly cut through her body. But if she didn't move, she would have to bear Xia Ye's full force attack.

In such a situation, unless the opponent has the defense to completely ignore these attacks... he will definitely be hurt.

"...Little girl, have you forgotten who taught you this little trick?"

However, the woman who had only shown her hands without making any gesture suddenly spoke without any warning, and asked a meaningful question in a slightly hoarse but attractive voice.

This sudden feedback also caused Xia Ye's action, which should have been flawless, to waver slightly.

"Look carefully... [Weave], this is how it is used."

When that beautiful, soul-stirring voice sounded again, the women in solemn clerical uniforms raised their right hands at the same time.

Then, a very obscure but solid force gathered in her palm, rapidly changing its nature and form at an incredible speed.

The next moment, a short sword that was silver-white and about an arm's length took shape in the woman's hand.

"What... could it be that?!"

When Xia Ye saw the dagger, she suddenly fell into a state of anxiety for some reason - she quickly twisted her body, switching from an offensive posture to a defensive one in an instant. At the same time, the surrounding silk threads instantly tightened towards the active woman, launching a direct attack.

However, this reaction was still a little late.

“Awareness is great, but emotions cloud your judgement – ​​so that’s why I failed.”

After the woman made an unsparing assessment of Xia Ye, the dagger in her hand also underwent an unexpected change.

The originally plain sword body split into dozens of sections in an instant, and as if it had gained life, it flew towards Xia Ye along a strange trajectory.

If I had to explain it in simple terms, the weapon seemed to be a whip-like snake-belly sword - and now, it attacked like a real snake.

"So it's the [Demon Killer]! You bastard!"

There was no idea which direction the snake sword would attack from, so Xia Ye simply gave up the idea of ​​defense.

She swung her arms violently and threw the sickle in her hands with all her strength - the high-speed spinning blade immediately flew towards the body of the woman opposite.

This move may not necessarily hurt the opponent, but it is enough to buy yourself time to recover.

Unless the opponent has no intention of avoiding those silk threads and sickles, he will definitely be able to dodge the sudden attack of the snake sword.

However, Xia Ye still lost.

……

"Most of the threads were cut off during the blade's transformation! Such poor judgment..."

Although Xia Ye, who was facing the opponent, failed to react in time, Aarons and Klia outside the field saw it clearly.

When the snake-shaped whip sword was unfolded, the silk thread network laid by Xia Ye had already been cut off by the sword blades flying along strange trajectories.

The opponent saw through Xia Ye's moves from the very beginning and used the simplest method to make the most effective counterattack - even if not all of the silk threads were cut off, the remaining few would not be able to cause any effective damage.

"I'm sorry, Marquis! I have to go up to help! Miss Yang--"

"No, please stay here and watch till the end."

Although Aarons' tone was very calm, Jiang Yue unexpectedly felt a strange majesty... She knew very well that it was not a suggestion, but an order that must not be violated.

However, it was precisely because of Aarons' reaction that Jiang Yue felt that she could no longer suppress her emotions.

"…I'm sorry, but I can't listen to you at this time!"

Purple thunder suddenly erupted from the dragon's horns and tail, turning the white robe draped outside into charcoal in an instant - then, the sage condensed spears of lightning in his hands and rushed to the battlefield like a flash of lightning.

"Wow, Teacher Jiangyue, you can't do this!"

Ignoring Keliya's cries, Jiangyue, who was only thinking about protecting her close friend, did not hesitate to break in between Xia Ye and the mysterious woman and used her body to block Xia Ye.

At the same time, she also threw the lightning spear in her hand, causing the natural force to burst out with astonishing power.

"What the--are you an idiot? Get out of the way!"

But the protected Xia Ye suddenly issued such a warning.
