Chapter 187: Rescue Suddenly, the flood dragon’s eyes gleamed with killing intent. Staring ferociously at the mist somewhere in the void, it launched itself over. Even before it arrived, a bolt of purple lightning had smitten the place. A loud rumble rang out, and the shadow in the mist scattered instantly: It was fake! Meanwhile, a white light bloomed behind the flood dragon, illuminating the sea fog. In the middle of the light was a bronze halberd, which glowed dazzlingly and emanated waves of powerful artifact essence. The man who held the halberd high up with both hands was Duan Yue. While sending all his energy into the weapon, he laughed loudly and said, “You’re truly a stupid beast, so easy to be fooled with just a small trick!” His eyes glowed, and he brought down the halberd with a roar. “Whiteflame Ghost Kill, the sixth-tier halberd! Die now, you monster!” As it went down, balls of cold white flame emerged around the halberd, lighting up the sea fog. Although they were flames, they seemed to cause a sudden drop in the temperature around and fill one’s heart with a chill that went deep into the bones. “Roar!” The flood dragon gave a furious roar. Its huge body prevented it from turning around immediately, so it simply lifted its tail and slapped it down toward Duan Yue. BANG! The halberd and the tail crashed hard into each other, and the collision of the two forces generated a tremendous blast, blowing away almost all of the sea fog within a thousand miles. As sunlight poured down, the figures of a man and a flood dragon could be clearly seen in the air, but each was sent flying backward in the opposite direction. The flood dragon’s body was larger, so it stopped after flying for hundreds of meters. A major part of its purple scales near the tail had turned scorching white, but they were quickly smeared red by its scarlet blood. It tossed and rolled painfully in mid-air while screeching and roaring. Anger and demonic aura exploded out of its eyes as it stared at Duan Yue, who had been thrown several miles away. Then, it turned its massive body around and slithered through the air with electric arcs crackled all around it. It was going to rip the man who had hurt it into pieces! Duan Yue, on the other hand, coughed out a mouthful of blood when the tail slapped him, and he was knocked flying back several miles. He felt blood clots and energy run wild in his internal organs, which nearly made him fall into the sea. His eyes were full of fear and horror as he murmured in disbelief, “How could it be so strong? Clearly, it is just a sixth-tier sea beast!” Suddenly, his pupils constricted; the flood dragon grew larger in his eyes, and he sensed the void all around him get locked down by a mighty demonic aura. Meanwhile, the seawater began to boil and vaporize again, turning into a cloud of mist with lightning flashing within. The flood dragon’s power pervaded the sky and the sea, and it felt like a sea god had descended! Duan Yue gave a bitter laugh. “I’m finished. I can’t believe this fellow is so strong! Where did the six bast*rds go? Are they dead?” He tried to muster his energy. He could still fly, but it was extremely difficult for him to flee with the void locked down by the flood dragon’s demonic energy. There was a flicker of determination in his eyes, and he calmed down, his face expressionless. “Since I will be dead anyway, I might as well die killing this beast!” “Kill my ass! If you don’t want to die, come over now!” Suddenly, a voice rang out from behind him. At some point in time, Yunxiao had appeared there, standing on a Tigerking chariot. “And those you called bastards are cleverer than you. As soon as the array was destroyed, they had all hidden themselves and fled. You are the only fool who hid and waited for a chance to sneak attack!” “What!” Duan Yue widened his eyes and said angrily, “They had fled as soon as the array was destroyed?” He was surprised by Yunxiao’s appearance, but when he heard that, he trembled with rage instantly. “I swear I will crush these bast*rds when I see them again!” “Hurry up and get in the chariot! Can you stop nagging like a woman? You are a fool yourself and yet you blame others!” Yunxiao gave the chariot a slap, which began to move slowly. Duan Yue leaped lightly and got in the chariot. Looking at the approaching flood dragon, he said with a grave expression, “The speed of this fifth-tier chariot is slower than that beast. You’d better leave first. I can buy you some time.” Yunxiao said expressionlessly, “Oh, if that is the case, I’ll not stand on ceremony with you. Please hold it back for some time. I’m leaving now without you.” “F*ck! I was only being polite when I said that! Don’t you think of abandoning me!” Duan Yue gave him a hard look as he moved a chair over from a corner and sat down. This Tigerking chariot was Yunxiao’s, and the one Ma Wendi had brought was still a thousand miles away. The people of Flying Sword Sect had not figured out the situation and dared not to leave. “But seriously, what are you going to do? We are about to be overtaken.” Although Duan Yue tried to pretend a relaxed look, his divine sense had not left the flood dragon even for a brief moment. A Tigerking chariot was quick, but it was nothing when compared to a sea beast who could ride clouds and mist and had the bloodline of a True Spirit. “Find someone to stop it. Since you don’t want to contribute, I can only rely on them.” Yunxiao pointed out a finger at the Flying Sword Sect’s chariot in the distance. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎 “Great idea! That bast*rd Ma Wendi, his people deserve this!” Duan Yue’s face lit up as he stood up and cried, “I’m ready!” He mustered his energy and grabbed Yunxiao before leaping into the air, zooming toward the Tigerking chariot in the distant. “Who goes there?” The people of Flying Sword Sect were startled by the two men who suddenly rushed into the chariot. When they saw who they were, one of them said in surprise, “Duan…Senior Duan! What’s the situation in there, Senior?” They were shocked and puzzled. The fog on the sea was too thick, so they could not see anything. Even their divine senses were blocked by some kind of power. “Hmph!” Duan Yue snorted coldly and swept the group of disciples with his eyes. Frightened, they stepped back hastily, their faces blue as no one dared to say a word. Yunxiao was staring into the fog. His divine sense was very powerful, enough to break through the restriction of the flood dragon’s demonic energy and see the purple figure. When the sea beast approached the abandoned chariot, his eyes grew cold and he performed an incantation gesture. “Detonate!” RUMBLE! There was a loud explosion, and a blast pushed the chariot tens of meters away. “What’s going on?” The disciples of Flying Sword Sect were in a panic. “Where is Senior Duan? And his little brother? Where are they?” In the next moment, they heard a furious roar and saw a purple figure rush at them. That scared the wits out of everyone in an instant. Meanwhile, Yunxiao and Duan Yue had boarded another chariot and driven it thousands of meters away. When he heard the screams and shrieks in the distance, Duan Yue clapped and cheered. “Haha! Serves them right! This is the price of scheming against me! You should have detonated their chariot as well and further injured that flood dragon!” Yunxiao said lightly, “Do you take me as a ninth-tier Alchemy Sovereign? With my current soul power, I can only detonate my chariot by setting up a divine seal and a restrictive spell on it. Even so, it had already consumed a significant amount of my soul power.” Duan Yue glanced at Yunxiao, who wore a calm face. He finally could not help but admit defeat. “I’m truly convinced now. You are just a one-star Great Martial Master, and yet you can still keep your composure under such an environment and even save me from the flood dragon. I owe you my life this time!” Yunxiao gave him a cold look as he snorted and said, “Don’t celebrate too early. It’s not over yet. If I were you, I’ll try my best to heal myself now.” He threw over a small bottle and said, “Take all these medicinal pills. It may need your help later.” “Why?” Looking at the purple shadow in the distance, Duan Yue asked, “At the distance we are from it now, we should have no problem running away, right?” Yunxiao stared at him as if he were an idiot. Duan Yue did not understand, and he asked lamely, “What? What did I say wrong?” Turning his eyes toward the flood dragon, Yunxiao said, “Who told you I want to run away?” Duan Yue gaped, and then he blurted out in horror, “What? What did you say? You’re not going to kill that flood dragon, are you?” When he saw Yunxiao’s smiling eyes, he felt extremely absurd, as if he were in a dream now. A one-star Great Martial Master wanted to kill a sixth-tier Purple Nine Neonate Flood Dragon! “Crazy, you’re absolutely out of your mind!” Duan Yue shook his head repeatedly. “If you are tired of living, go and do it yourself! I still want to live!” Yunxiao chuckled. “Who said I am going to do it myself?” “Then you are…” Duan Yue looked puzzled. He suddenly found that he was completely a child in front of Yunxiao. With a confident look, Yunxiao sneered, “Ma Wendi is really a ruthless man, hiding patiently while watching his fellow disciples being slaughtered. Let’s see how long can they hide!” Duan Yue’s face flickered, and he said with shock, “You mean the six of them did not leave but are hiding somewhere?” Yunxiao nodded and said, “Do you think others are fools like you? The six of them are all hidden in the vicinity with some mystic arts, waiting for a chance to strike. Everyone expects others to make moves first, and will only come out to reap the benefits when it is over. Only a fool like you would be the first to rush out. You have no idea how happy they were when they saw you rush out.” “Bast*rds!” Duan Yue gnashed his teeth in hatred. “When I recover my strength, I’ll definitely teach them a lesson!” As an experienced hunter, he attached great importance to credibility and rules. Because of that, many hunting groups preferred to invite him to go out to the sea together, even though he was expensive. He hated those who abandoned their teammates in the face of danger.
