Chapter 2973 - 2947: The Blood Dragon’s Might! (Part 3)
Chapter 2973: Chapter 2947: The Blood Dragon’s Might! (Part 3)
Xuanji’s beautiful eyes narrowed. Fortunately, she dodged swiftly; otherwise, if struck by this energy pillar, she would likely be severely injured.
"Miss Ruoxue, are you alright?"
The blood dragon’s voice was desolate as it flew close to Xia Ruoxue.
IIts massive body guarded her tightly.
"Blood Dragon... you..."
Seeing the blood dragon descend, Xia Ruoxue instantly showed joy.
"Sister Xue, we are saved."
Specks of starlight floated up from the underground mire, and the Reincarnation Star Stone rose again.
The Star Spirit, seeing the blood dragon arrive, was also filled with delight.
With the blood dragon’s protection, she and Xia Ruoxue at least eliminated the immediate danger.
"Hehe, don’t get too happy yet."
Xuanji gave a cold smile, surveying the blood dragon:
"So you are the blood dragon. The Empress has decreed that you must die too."
Crack!
The Great Sword was clutched tightly as Xuanji’s beautiful eyes turned icy cold.
An endless killing intent erupted at this moment!
"You are from the Upper Realm, and that woman is your superior?"
The blood dragon’s voice was desolate, as an awe-inspiring vision of an empress appeared in its mind.
Having devoured the Outer Realm Demon Dragon, it naturally gained part of its memory!
That figure was indeed too imposing and formidable.
Even it dared not call her name directly, lest it incur the wrath of the Heavenly Punishment.
Only when its power is fully restored, would the blood dragon dare to speak the name of that empress:
Xuan Jiyue!
The Supreme of the Upper Realm, supreme in all ways, dominating in all directions, crushing the All Heavens: Xuan Jiyue!
If anyone in the world could rival the Samsara Master!
It would be only Xuan Jiyue!
"Hehe, since you know my Venerable Immortal, kneel and accept your death quickly, so I won’t waste my time."
Xuanji sneered coldly.
"Pfft!"
The blood dragon glared: "That treacherous woman, one day I will ascend to the Upper Realm and let her understand the meaning of Dragon Anger!"
As its voice fell, the blood dragon’s body pivoted fiercely toward Xuanji, bursting forth with endless killing intent!
"Overestimate yourself."
Xuanji snorted coldly, swinging her Great Sword, unleashing torrential azure light to slash the blood dragon’s body.
If the blood dragon was uninjured, she might have had some reservations.
But now, she clearly saw that one of the blood dragon’s claws was completely charred black, obviously gravely wounded.
"Great Wilderness Moon-breaking Slash!"
Xuanji shouted violently, not wanting to miss such a good opportunity.
The sword edge slashed furiously, with the entire sword exuding the aura of an ancient crescent moon, cold and piercing, chilling to the bone.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The Great Sword swept across the void as if wanting to cut open a bright moon, accompanied by the roaring and vast sword qi, howling to strike.
"Demon Skull Blood Claw!"
The blood dragon’s low voice resonated as its left claw struck out fiercely.
In its claw, a hazy blood light swirled, transforming into a Blood Crystal-like existence, firmly covering the entire claw.
Its claw also seemed to turn transparent.
Vaguely, one could see the powerful Dragon Bone inside, filled with strength.
Whoosh!
The blood dragon claw, as if wanting to crush a planet, fiercely sliced through the void, colliding heavily with Xuanji’s sword edge.
Boom!
The impact of sword and claw instantly erupted in a world-shaking explosion.
The blood dragon remained unmoving, and Xuanji also steadied like a mountain.
This confrontation was evenly matched, not allowing an advantage either way.
"Damn it."
Xuanji gritted her teeth, not expecting the blood dragon to have such formidable power even when gravely wounded.
If it fully recovered, the consequences would be unimaginable!
The might of the Outer Realm dragon race was indeed formidable.
Her beautiful eyes flickered, containing the glint of a poisonous snake, calculating a sinister plan.
"Instant Kill Imperial Sword!"
Suddenly, with a delicate shout, she darted out, wielding her sword ferociously.
Her body flickered, unexpectedly instantaneously teleporting in front of Xia Ruoxue.
"Careful!"
The blood dragon was shocked, hurriedly waving its claw to block Xuanji’s sneak attack.
Xuanji’s move was a very formidable sword technique of the Upper Realm called Instant Kill Imperial Sword, blending strong spatial laws, teleporting, and killing in an instant, leaving the enemy unable to defend.
Fortunately, the blood dragon was always on guard and reacted immediately upon seeing Xuanji’s sneak attack.
Boom!
Its claw struck out, colliding with Xuanji’s Great Sword.
But the feeling of the collision was very soft, without any strength.
"Not good, it was a trap!"
The blood dragon’s expression changed drastically.
Xuanji’s strike was actually a feint, without any force.
"Hehe, vile creature, die!"
Xuanji sneered coldly, suddenly teleporting out, attacking above the blood dragon’s head.
She was very clever, using Xia Ruoxue as bait to lure the blood dragon into a trap.
Under normal circumstances, with the blood dragon’s strength, it wouldn’t be fooled by a feint.
But now, it was disturbed by concern, and it fell for it.
"Instant Kill Imperial Sword!"
Xuanji shouted to the sky, delivering the real assassin’s strike.
Vast and grand, carrying the sword qi of the Emperor’s path of the Upper Realm, fiercely slashing at the blood dragon’s body.
Pfff!
Instantly, a hideous wound appeared on the blood dragon, blood gushing, its throat letting out a muffled shout.
"Blood Dragon!"
Xia Ruoxue was terrified, her eyes red, knowing that if not for protecting her, the blood dragon wouldn’t have been so beleaguered.
"Damn it."
The blood dragon gritted its teeth, feeling piercing pain.
"You haven’t recovered to peak-level. Once you fully awaken that bloodline, it would be me who might die.
The Empress has told me that eliminating threats is the way of survival in the Upper Realm, now, I shall send you on your way."
Xuanji, having achieved success with one strike, was immediately uplifted, teleporting with her body, slashing with the sword to Xia Ruoxue.
This time, it wasn’t a feint.
It was a straightforward, incredibly sharp Instant Kill Imperial Sword.
Xia Ruoxue’s eyes narrowed, hastily retreating.
"Miss Ruoxue, quickly go!"
The blood dragon, eyes bulging, with its heavily wounded body, stood in front of her.
"There’s no escaping, besides, as Ye Chen’s woman, how could I flee in disgrace?"
Xia Ruoxue’s beautiful eyes turned cold, staring at Xuanji, "Enough, blood dragon, today we join forces and fight her."
"Go quickly! Even if there’s just a slim chance! I can sense the Heavenly Dao Palace’s presence! The enemy is approaching!"
The blood dragon pulled out a scale, and with a clatter, it transformed into a Dragon Scale Flying Boat.
"Star Spirit, quickly take Miss Ruoxue away."
The blood dragon waved its claw, sending both the Reincarnation Star Stone and Xia Ruoxue onto the flying ship.
If the enemy was only Xuanji, it might be able to save Xia Ruoxue despite mutual destruction.
But now, the Yan Tian Dragon God and those twelve elders’ auras were rapidly approaching.
Once they arrived, the blood dragon would have no chance.
So, it had to send Xia Ruoxue away immediately!
Whoosh!
The blood dragon waved its massive claw, stirring up a howling Astral Wind, swiftly propelling the entire Dragon Scale Flying Boat through the void, out of the great hall.
"Blood Dragon!"
Xia Ruoxue called out, biting her lip, her beautiful eyes filled with sorrow.
"Sister Xue, let’s go quickly, don’t let Senior Long’s sacrifice go to waste."
The Star Spirit spoke softly.
"Where can you run to?"
Xuanji’s expression turned cold, suddenly using Instant Kill Imperial Sword, intending to shatter the void, pursuing Xia Ruoxue.
