Chapter 1305: Beheading
The fierce battle between Liang Yue and Yenatai lasted for nearly half an hour.
By this ti, the disparity in equipnt was laid bare for all to see.
The exoskeleton armor on Liang Yue's body possessed extrely strong defensive capabilities, allowing her to withstand fatal attacks.
Yenatai's Buddha's light was both offensive and defensive.
He later found a perfect opportunity, transforming a Buddha's Hand into a precious mirror that shot a beam of light that instantly traversed several thousand ters, striking Liang Yue.
Its formidable attack power directly caused cracks to appear on the armor covering Liang Yue's body!
Although Liang Yue dodged in ti, the armor on her left arm still suffered damage.
However, Liang Yue was no pushover either. After the prolonged, grueling battle, the physical advantage of her reinforcent-type abilities allowed her to maintain her offensive at a high standard, while Yenatai's Buddha's light was gradually growing dimr.
Finally, after one particularly fierce attack, Liang Yue's long sword slashed across Yenatai's frontal bone.
It nearly cleaved open the crown of his skull!
Although Yenatai managed to dodge it at the last critical mont, it still scared him so much he broke out in a cold sweat all over.
That strike had completely penetrated his skull!
Anyone could see that Yenatai had already fallen into a position of great disadvantage.
Moreover, with the other side having a ferocious beast holding the line, there was no way they could lose.
A subordinate beside Deji couldn't help but say, "Khenpo, Yenatai can't hold on any longer. If this fight continues, he will definitely die."
He didn't voice the second half of the sentence, which was to urge Deji to order accepting defeat in this contest.
Deji fiercely turned his head and glared at him, a hint of crimson in his gaze.
"Silence! We co representing Sangha Monastery, to execute justice and judge sin. How could we possibly lose?"
La Min Ouzhu, standing to the side, said calmly, "Indeed. If we lose to the Pagyi Family this ti, where would Sangha Monastery's face be?"
At this mont, she didn't ntion the three-family allied forces, only bringing up Sangha Monastery.
After all, their La Min Family and the Xia Zha Family were rely reinforcents, not the main force.
Furthermore, the two battles they had fought had already ended in victory, preserving their honor.
Her words were deliberately ant to put Deji on the spot, to roast him over the fire.
What a joke, their La Min Family had lost a powerful superhuman!
What was Deji's attitude back then when she wanted Gele to withdraw?
Now, the monks of your Sangha Monastery must also fight to the death for !
The expression on Deji's face had turned gloomy to the extre, as if he wanted to devour soone.
He clenched the prayer beads in his hands tightly, forcefully rotating them.
Even if it ant letting Yenatai die in battle, he had to gamble for that last sliver of hope!
Liang Yue, holding her long sword, smiled faintly and said to Yenatai, "From the very beginning of this fight, you never had a hope of winning. Do you still want to continue fighting now?"
Yenatai sneered, "Oh? Have you already defeated ? Or are you saying this because you're afraid?"
Liang Yue said, "Sotis, recognizing reality is more important. Your strength is formidable; you should have had a much broader world ahead of you. But if you continue fighting, you will die."
She sighed. "If I were the person behind you, I would definitely order you to retreat."
Yenatai's heart stirred.
He thought of Chodak and Suolang Deji, who had voluntarily withdrawn from the battlefield.
They had both received permission from their chieftain; even if they retreated, they wouldn't be punished.
However, the situation Yenatai faced today was different.
If he retreated, there was no one who could cover for him.
Sangha Monastery's face would be utterly swept away, and Khenpo Deji would not forgive him.
Moreover, he too was a man who valued his honor.
If Deji spoke up, giving him a way out, he might have agreed.
But Deji did not speak.
So, he could only choose to fight to the death.
"Enough idle talk. Today, I fight for the esoteric sect. Even if I die, I will enter the Western Pure Land!"
Seeing that persuasion was futile, Liang Yue hesitated no longer.
"Very well. The path is one you chose yourself. I will personally send you to the Western Pure Land!"
Gripping her sword with both hands, she shot across several hundred ters like a hurricane, launching her attack towards Yenatai.
Yenatai was strong, but in the end, he was too burdened by external attachnts.
After battling fiercely with Liang Yue for nearly an hour, his holy light had grown so thin it could barely maintain the Buddha's phantom image.
In the end, Liang Yue's sword descended and severed his head.
The upper half of Liang Yue's armor was almost completely shattered. This battle had been exceptionally perilous for her as well.
If not for the advantage in equipnt, it would have been truly hard to say who would have won between her and Yenatai.
Therefore, even after killing Yenatai, Liang Yue still paid this opponent the respect he deserved.
"No!!!"
On the Allied Forces' side, Deji, who was watching the battle, had crimson eyes. With a forceful squeeze of his hand, the entire string of prayer beads shattered directly, scattering and rolling across the ground with a clatter.
Yenatai's death marked their complete and utter defeat!
A deathly silence fell over the Allied Forces camp.
This was the first defeat Sangha Monastery had suffered since its expedition began.
Moreover, it was a defeat suffered during a campaign personally led by the Khenpo.
All the soldiers looked downcast and disheartened, like eggplants beaten by frost.
In contrast, the Pagyi Family side was jubilant and cheering, the sounds of celebration carrying all the way to the opposite side, further souring the mood of the Allied Forces.
Pagyi Gesang's face was practically splitting with laughter.
After holding in humiliation for two and a half years, he had finally washed away the sha this ti and vented a huge breath of resentnt!
In front of everyone, Liang Yue absorbed Yenatai's origin. The people of the Allied Forces could only stare helplessly, powerless to do anything.
However, in the end, Liang Yue left Yenatai's corpse where it lay.
Hua Hua ran over, jumped into her arms, and the woman and cat returned to the Pagyi Family's battle formation.
Pagyi Gesang walked over, beaming with joy. His two small mustache ends seed to be dancing as he exclaid with exaggerated flair:
"Oh, praise my noble warrior! Thank you for bringing victory to my Pagyi Family!"
The mbers of the Pagyi Family looked at Zhang Yi and the other rcenaries, their eyes sincere and fervent.
Zhang Yi narrowed his eyes, sweeping his gaze over the opposite side before quickly scanning his surroundings.
Not sensing the aura of the Lord of the Charnel Ground, he said calmly, "I thought they would tear up the agreent."
Pagyi Gesang smiled. "The disciples of the esoteric sect keep their promises. They would never cast aside righteousness like worn-out shoes."
"A promise made before the faces of the four great chieftain families... Given Deji's level of concern for his reputation, he won't break the agreent."
He paused here, then added, "At least, not on the spot."
However, in the future, he would definitely try every ans to reclaim today's humiliation tenfold, a hundredfold.
But that's a matter for later.
Anyway, after all this commotion, before the Prayer Festival is convened, Deji won't be able to launch any major military actions against the Pagyi Family.
Pagyi Gesang laughed triumphantly as he communicated with Deji.
He said they would hand over the compensation materials to Deji as agreed.
Deji coldly accepted, then didn't want to stay a minute longer. Without even bidding farewell to the other two family heads, he flicked his sleeves and left.
