Kyak—!!!
Abruptly, Iron Whistle opened its mouth, spitting out its tongue full of blood and mucus.
With a jolt, Long Xiruo shut the door tightly; however, the tongue was so strong that it pierced through the door, but didn’t stab into her forehead. It merely grazed her face.
Her power was gone, but she still had her experiences. Long Xiruo jumped back… If it was previously, it would be easy to jump back, but now she couldn’t keep her balance while jumping and sat down on the ground after landing.
Iron Whistle’s tongue was flexible. It now extended like a soul snake, which entangled Long Xiruo’s calf, then extended again, coiling around her entire body.
The tongue secreting mucus constantly made her uncomfortable. At the same time, Iron Whistle had broken the door, his body squeezing at the door frame… Surprisingly, its body shrank and it went through the frame easily!
The tongue started to contract, dragging Long Xiruo closer… What was waiting for the true dragon was a large mouth filled with sharp teeth.
Would the true dragon die in its mouth?
Long Xiruo brain almost stopped working—It was what she never expected these years. Seeing her body approaching death, Long Xiruo struggled like with everything she possessed.
‘Damn it… will I give in now and call the shop owner?’ Long Xiruo sighed at how her fate changed… She really understood the feelings of those guys who were eager to sell what they cherished to obtain what they want.
We may be helpless and incapable, sometimes we may not even make it, no matter how hard we work.
Long Xiruo suddenly relaxed; when the thought of yielding emerged, she closed her eyes.
‘Come on… I want…’
“Master Long!”
All of a sudden, a shout woke her up—her body was released, because its tongue had been cut off, along with Iron Whistle’s anguished voice.
“Gui Qianyi!”
The old turtle look turned sharp— as sharp as the sword he held.
It turned out to be the walking stick.
Gui Qianyi didn’t stop, but came to attack Iron Whistle again.
It cut off one of its forelegs.
Iron Whistle screamed again and its body turned into liquid! Gui Qianyi snorted, “Humph, are you going to use the same trick again?”
Gui Qianyi drew a circle using his sword. Water fog shot out of it. The water turned into frost in the air and froze everything— which included Iron Whistle, who had turned into liquid and wanted to flee.
Gui Qianyi heaved a sigh of relief, and put back the sword— it turned back into a walking stick.
“Master Long, did you get hurt?” Gui Qianyi held her up.
“I’m OK.” Long Xiruo shook her head; she frowned while glancing at the frozen Iron Whistle, “Gui Qianyi, how did you find this place?”
Gui Qianyi answered, “It’s a long story. When I was cooking noodles today…”
But Long Xiruo interrupted with a ferocious look, “Make it short!”
Gui Qinyi hurried said gently, “Wind sent letter, worried about tricks, I pretended to leave, but actually stay behind and observed, as expected.”
Gui Qianyi got on Ghost Baby’s car, but he got off before it went far. He asked Ghost Baby to go to the appointed place, but he sneaked back and kept an eye on the situation.
“I found something after concealing for a while.” Gui Qianyi shook his head, “Wind is too cunning, those monsters are still being controlled, but looked normal… I’m so stupid for not checking the methods he used. Please forgive my uselessness, Master Long.”
Long Xiruo skipped this topic, “Don’t mention it. What happened later?”
Gui Qianyi said, “Those monsters suddenly revolted. They didn’t only captured my guys, but also caught Shu Xiaoshu and Xiaojiang. I thought it might be a good chance to find Wind, so I stayed still and followed them here… but not long after I arrived, I smelt blood. Luckily I came after the smell, or else Master Long may have…”
“Thank you.” Long Xiruo shook her head.
It expressed her true appreciation… Without this wily old fox, she would probably have compromised with the shop owner.
Long Xiruo breathed a sigh, and said helplessly, “It’s good to save me, but you may lose track of those guys.”
“Don’t worry, I placed a spell on one of them, so I knew where they are.” Gui Qianyi narrowed his eyes, “Well, they stopped, at…”
He opened his eyes, “This place?”
“Why did Wind catch Shu Xiaoshu’s family and Xiaojiang?” Long Xiruo bit her fingernail, looking at the ice crystal in front, “Where’s Ghost Baby?”
“I asked him to go to the destination.” Gui Qianyi said seriously, “We don’t know how many innocent monsters have been controlled by Wind or if he will lay an ambush there. Will it irritate him if we didn’t lose over here? I don’t understand Wind’s intention.”
“You did a good job.” Long Xiruo shook her head, “If it were me, I would not have done better than you… What a merciless Iron Whistle. Wipe it out.”
“Yeah, a long delay may cause trouble.” Gui Qianyi nodded, and pointed his walking stick on the ice crystal.
Then, the ice crystal was completely destroyed at that moment, turning into countless of ice cubes— This senior monster must have been a heartless killer previously.
“Xiang Liu said, that you may have to break its original cell to kill it.” Gui Qianyi was now looking for the core cell among the ice cubes.
“I got it!” Gui Qianyi snorted and was about to point it by his stick!
But right then, the half tongue dropping down suddenly opened and shot a hair-thick needle into Gui Qianyi’s ankle!
“What a cunning brute!” Gui Qianyi was infuriated by the stab… Unexpectedly, the cut-off foreleg turned into liquid and covered Gui Qianyi’s body!
But it was just a small obstacle to him—when the old turtle yelled, the liquid around him became cold ice immediately.
He shook off the ices… but his face turned grey and his body kneeled down.
“Crap…it’s a toxic needle!”
“Gui Qianyi!”
“The poison… won’t kill me.” Gui Qianyi breathed deeply , bracing himself to squeeze black liquid gradually from his ankle.
However, the ice crystal was broken… and the liquid that blew out gathered rapidly.
However, no matter what, when it gathered together, it was much smaller than its original one.
The liquid started to swell, and turned into a figure.
Long Xiruo inhaled cold air… Prometheus, those western guys even created such a freak with such strong vitality.
It had the ability to speak.
Its shape became more and more clear, and so did the voice, “Before this, a voice asked me… if someone stronger wants to kill me, what will I do. That time I said, it’s normal that the weaker will die. And I will die because I’m weak…”
The voice that got clearer and clearer shocked Long Xiruo.
“But just now when I was dying…” It formed eventually, “Why do you want to kill me!!!!!”
It was formed, and roared!
“Shu You?!!”
The true dragon cried out in alarm!
It approached Long Xiruo and Gui Qianyi with a ferocious look, “Why do you want to kill me? Tell me that!!! I do not understand!!!!!!!!”
