Chapter 496: Battle To The Death

I pushed both hands against the serpent's opening jaw, locking it shut as it tried to breathe out its poison.

The sword spirit desperately tried to control the serpent to get away from me while at the same time protecting Mei Ling's unconscious form.

He pulled out a sword and attempted to slice my fingers off, but the pure grit and strength of my fingers were too much for the sword to freely cut through.

With a forceful heave, I pulled on the serpent's locked jaws raising half its body from the ground then swung it to the side, throwing the whole thing tumbling on the paved and cracked floor of this area.
