Chapter 144: Severed Arm

It was unknown whether Zhang Xiaobai’s mind was truly creative, or he was purposely trying to make everyone light-hearted. In any case, everyone under the Millstone Town’s city walls had their tension relieved. Apart from Xin Ying, the rest of the people were laughing heartily. However, Xin Ying could only feel that her fist was getting itchy again.

At that moment, there was a sudden change of events.

Zhang Xiaobai originally commanded his Silver Gale Mussel to shoot out its basic ability, Forceful Wind Blade, to kill a Class 1 alien insect that was destroying things within the sea of flowers.

When the Forceful Wind Blade cleaved the Class 1 alien insect, it should have split the alien insect into two. However, the Forceful Wind Blade felt as though it had slashed on a metal plate, and there was a clear metallic clash.

At that moment, a two-meter long black iron line suddenly shot out of the Class 1 alien insect’s body and rushed straight for Zhang Xiaobai’s heart.

Zhang Xiaobai wasn’t considered far from the Class 1 alien insect and was less than 15 meters away. The Heart-Penetrating Ironline took just a blink of the eye to cover the distance.

Back when Lin Yuan heard the ‘clang’ sound, he knew that it wasn’t good. He consciously commanded Red Thorn to grow a huge quantity of Elite ramets in front of Zhang Xiaobai.

Unfortunately, the produced Elite ramets were immediately penetrated by the Heart-Penetrating Ironline and couldn’t stop its straight-line thrust.

Within a distance of 15 meters, Red Thorn had produced six Elite ramets. Each of the Elite ramets had a bowl-sized hole in their corrosive cavity, and it was an injury made by the Heart-Penetrating Ironline.

However, when the Heart-Penetrating Ironline paused for a moment due to Lin Yuan’s defense, Zhang Xiaobai was able to react. Xin Ying had also reacted by pouncing over.

Due to shock and anger, Xin Ying used nearly all of her strength to pounce over and released all the power with her claws. The sharp claws instantly cleaved on the Heart-Penetrating Ironline, and there was a metallic clash.

It was fortunate that Xin Ying’s all-out attack was able to shift the Heart-Penetrating Ironline’s attack trajectory. It was originally targeting Zhang Xiaobai’s heart, but its direction had slightly changed now. Surprisingly, the Heart-Penetrating Ironline forcefully twisted its body to change direction and still pierced toward Zhang Xiaobai.

But when Zhang Xiaobai dodged, the Heart-Penetrating Ironline didn’t manage to accurately pierce through Zhang Xiaobai’s heart. Instead, it pierced through Zhang Xiaobai’s shoulder bone.

When the Heart-Penetrating Ironline pierced through the shoulder bone, it twisted gently, and its ironline body gathered together. This brief contact had caused Zhang Xiaobai’s entire arm to drop onto the ground.

“Zhang Xiaobai!”

“Big Brother Xiaobai! Your arm!”

“Zhang Xiaobai!!”

This sudden change of events stunned everyone. Had it not been for Lin Yuan and Xin Ying’s fast reactions, Zhang Xiaobai’s heart would have been penetrated by the Heart-Penetrating Ironline, and he would be a lifeless corpse now.

However, even if Lin Yuan and Xin Ying had reacted fast enough, Zhang Xiaobai still couldn’t keep his arm. In fact, Zhang Xiaobai didn’t just lose his arm—the severed part started from the scapula.

Zhang Xiaobai was now in such pain that he was ghastly pale and drenched in a cold sweat. His other arm was still holding his wound tightly, but fresh blood was still spraying out in large amounts.

Ten fingers weren’t even able to cover the entire shoulder, let alone an entire arm. The pain was so intense that Zhang Xiaobai’s vision turned black, and he nearly collapsed. However, before Zhang Xiaobai’s vision could black out, another intense pain made Zhang Xiaobai’s body shiver. It felt as though he didn’t even have the strength to cover his wound.

Xin Ying, who was always aggressive, knelt on the ground lifelessly after seeing Zhang Xiaobai suddenly losing an arm. She didn’t even blink her eyes as tears started to drip down constantly.

The moment Zhang Xiaobai lost his arm, Xin Ying knew that his life was done for. Even if they were able to survive this insect tide, Zhang Xiaobai’s arm would never be able to recover.

The core of the Extreme Guild Club’s S Tournament official team was the Radiance Hundred Sequence #18, White Devil.

Xin Ying knew that even White Devil wouldn’t be able to regrow severed limbs. Healing-type spirit qi professionals were already rare in the Radiance Federation, and there were just a few high-ranked healing-type spirit qi professionals. Even if the Extreme Guild Club was able to invite a king-class healing-type professional, they still might not regrow Zhang Xiaobai’s severed arm.

Those who could be considered king-class experts were those that possessed at least one Fantasy Breed, and they were also A-rank spirit qi professionals. Only such experts could be known as king-class experts.

A king-class expert was no longer determined by just a spirit qi professional rank or fey’s strength—it was the combination of both factors. There were plenty of spirit qi professionals who were A-rank but didn’t possess Fantasy Breed feys. Therefore, they weren’t considered to be king-class experts.

As for those heavenly prodigies, like the members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence, they possessed Fantasy Breed feys, but their spirit qi professional rank wasn’t at A-rank yet. Therefore, they weren’t considered king-class experts either.

King-class experts were considered the top few experts in the Radiance Federation, and such experts weren’t that easy to invite. In addition, the rarest kind of king-class experts were healing-type ones.

In the Radiance Federation, the ratio of combat-class spirit qi professionals and healing-type spirit qi professionals was always 150:1. The ratio wasn’t as exaggerated among the king-class individuals, but the number of king-class healing-type experts was still less than 1/20 of king-class combat-class experts.

As for White Devil, a core member of the Extreme Guild Club’s S Tournament official team, according to her true combat strength, she might not even be top 30. White Devil was Sequence #18 of the Radiance Hundred because she was a healing-type spirit qi professional, so her strategic significance was far beyond her combat significance.

Moreover, even if a king-class healer was invited, each king-class healer possessed different types of Fantasy Breed feys. Each of those healing-type Fantasy Breed feys would have different abilities and exclusive skills, so the healing methods were different too.

Some king-class healers were adept at eliminating poison, and some others were adept at healing mental damage. But in the Radiance Federation, Xin Ying had never heard of a king-class healer with a Fantasy Breed that could regrow a person’s limbs.

Furthermore, even if there was such a king-class healer, and if the Extreme Guild Club was able to pay such a huge price, would they really be able to invite such a king-class healer?

Tan Ran and Lu Pinru were now attacking the injured Heart-Penetrating Ironline, which was smashed by Xin Ying’s all-out attack. However, Tan Ran and Lu Pinru were still looking at Zhang Xiaobai with eyes of unspeakable concern.

All of a sudden, Tan Ran yelled furiously, “Lava Hippopotamus, use Lava Bomb!”

A scorching lava sphere was shot out of the Lava Hippopotamus’ mouth and smashed onto the already injured Heart-Penetrating Ironline. It instantly burned the Heart-Penetrating Ironline and turned it into charcoal.

Tan Ran’s voice carried a sobbing sound, while Lu Pinru’s eyes were reddened.

Zhang Xiaobai was in such pain that his teeth were chattering. He was watching Xin Ying kneeling down and crying for him. He put in great effort to let out a simple smile. “Xin Ying, my arm is severed now. In the future, I will be a cripple. Are you willing to take care of me?”
