Chapter 4876: 5.0628 Dead Fish
But now, compared to Purple Cloud, a true Dragon Sacred Beast, the Fish Dragon seemed somewhat underwhelming.
The two Sacred Beasts slammed and thrashed above the deep pool.
The Fish Dragon's expelled mist was struck by a ball of lightning from Purple Cloud, generating a spark of electricity in the air.
Everyone watched as a crackling electric flash zipped by their eyes, suddenly plunging into the deep pool water without causing a single ripple.
Everyone instinctively took a step back.
The Fish Dragon heavily slammed onto the stone path, its dragon tail leaving a bloody streak.
This Sacred Beast that suddenly appeared was actually stronger than it.
This filled it with both rage and a hint of fear.
It had been ruling this mountain for an unknown number of years.
The cultivators it had devoured were almost countless.
When had it ever suffered such a loss at the hands of a human?
Moreover...
The Fish Dragon opened and closed its wide mouth, angrily saying, "You and I are of the same kind, why do you help mere humans deal with me? If we were to join forces..."
"Don't listen to it," Qiao Mu coldly interrupted the Fish Dragon. "This timid coward can't beat you."
"It just wants to stabilize you first, then seize an opportunity to strike hard."
"If you're brainless, you'll fall for its trick."
Purple Cloud: ???
These words sound like a warning, but why do they feel so unpleasant?
What does it mean if he's brainless, he'll fall for it?
Does that imply that if he continues to listen to the Fish Dragon, he's brainless?
"Purple Cloud," Young Master Qin Er said coldly.
The Purple Cloud Thunder Dragon immediately soared into the air.
The next second, with a "thud," it slammed onto the ground, completely collapsing one side of the stone path.
Idiot!! Qiao Mu cursed inwardly, flinging a flying talisman at it.
The Purple Cloud Thunder Dragon immediately felt its body lighten, and its dragon form abruptly leaped into the air.
Only then did the Qin Mansion members realize what was happening.
It turns out the little girl used a flying talisman; no wonder she could ignore the restrictions here.
The poker-faced girl's flying talisman can actually ignore restrictions? Everyone was slightly stunned.
To call this little poker-faced girl the Greatest Talisman Master of the Three Continents might not be an exaggeration.
Purple Cloud ascended, quickly putting distance between itself and the Fish Dragon.
The dragon leaped and churned, spitting out several palm-sized balls of lightning.
As a series of rumbling sounds echoed—
The Fish Dragon suddenly darted down towards the stone path.
Just as it tried to dive into the deep pool to hide, it collided with a barrier.
Qiao Mu had already set up a defensive restriction on the water's surface with a defensive talisman; how could she allow this Fish Dragon to hide in the water?
Thus, the poor Fish Dragon was truly tragic.
The moment it turned to retreat, it was struck on the head by a fist-sized bolt of lightning, immediately falling heavily, slamming into the barrier with a dull thud.
The little poker-faced girl seized the opportunity, flying forward, and with a "thwack," struck the Fish Dragon's abdomen with her mace.
The fish immediately flipped belly-up, rolling onto the water barrier with a "thud."
Young Master Qin Er leaped forward, holding his long sword, and swiftly slashed across the Fish Dragon's abdomen.
The Fish Dragon let out a human-like shriek, "You..."
It stared, its eyes wide with terror.
From its opened abdomen, a smooth crystal core suddenly flew out.
Qiao Mu reached out and, with a吸 (sucking motion), immediately collected the Sacred Beast's crystal core into her storage talisman. She then turned and ran, shouting, "Run!!"
Everyone initially looked utterly bewildered.
Didn't you say you'd take the Sacred Beast crystal core and we'd take the remaining Sacred Beast flesh and blood? Now that the battle is clearly about to be won, why are we running...?
But then they turned their heads and saw the Fish Dragon's opened abdomen begin to swell.
"Holy cow, it's going to self-destruct..."
