After receiving the command, the golden dragon spirit lion cautiously ascended toward the flood dragon on the lone peak...
The massive head of the golden dragon spirit lion opened its bloody maw to the extreme, revealing long tusks that extended over ten zhang!
At the same time, its four hooves stretched out sickle-like claws, each claw reaching ten zhang!
At this moment, high above the lone peak, the Spirit Vessel swayed in the thousand-zhang whirlwind, slowly descending toward the summit, while the wind and thunder flood dragon coiled around the peak, extending two dragon heads!
Its scarlet eyes gazed at the Spirit Vessel a hundred zhang above, and suddenly, the snow-white dragon head with wind attributes emitted a piercing sound and opened its mouth, which was several dozen zhang wide, swallowing the Spirit Vessel along with the whirlwind into its maw!
Ninety zhang... eighty zhang...
As the Spirit Vessel descended and was only sixty zhang away from the snow-white dragon head, Nangong Yuqin and Gongsun Ruoxi, drenched by the rain, had their long skirts clinging tightly to their delicate bodies, revealing deep despair in their beautiful eyes!
Especially Nangong Yuqin, as the Spirit Vessel she controlled was a supreme treasure artifact!
Yet even the flying power of the supreme treasure artifact could not escape the whirlpool of wind power created by the flood dragon, making it impossible for her and Gongsun Ruoxi to escape!
They had no doubt that if they attempted to use flying sword control to leave the Spirit Vessel, they would be instantly sucked into the dragon’s maw by the wind power whirlwind!
In the torrential rain, facing the inevitable doom, Gongsun Ruoxi revealed a hint of relief in her beautiful eyes, muttering to herself, "Grandfather raised me but never truly loved me."
"My parents abandoned me. Perhaps death would be a form of relief for me."
"My only regret is that I lacked the courage to tell him that I like him..."
Suddenly, Nangong Yuqin's cold voice interrupted Gongsun Ruoxi's thoughts, "What are you daydreaming about at this point? Hurry up and think of a way!"
Gongsun Ruoxi immediately glanced at Nangong Yuqin with anger, "If it weren't for you, that wicked woman, chasing after me and Shiyao, how would I have been caught by the flood dragon!"
"Wicked woman?" Nangong Yuqin's face showed a murderous intent, "Gongsun Ruoxi, you should be grateful to the flood dragon; if it hadn't appeared, you would have been killed by me long ago!"
"If I hadn't spared your life to deal with the flood dragon, your corpse would have already been eaten by that demon beast. This saintess has already given you a huge grace by allowing you to live so many extra days!"
Hearing this, Gongsun Ruoxi suddenly laughed, a mocking laugh that disregarded life and death, "Nangong Yuqin, I, Gongsun Ruoxi, am just an orphan. When I die, no one in this world will mourn for me."
"But you are different. You are the saintess of the divine soul celestial palace and the eldest princess of the Nangong sacred dynasty. With you to accompany me in death, I, Gongsun Ruoxi, would die without regrets!"
"You..." Nangong Yuqin was about to retort when Gongsun Ruoxi interrupted her, "Facing your pursuit, whether the flood dragon appears or not, I am already dead."
"And now I have lived a few more days; I have already gained."
"You are different. Because of hunting me down, you are now going to be eaten by the flood dragon."
Gongsun Ruoxi suddenly sneered, "I'll tell you, you are the most miserable one!"
"This saintess will kill you!" Nangong Yuqin raised her sword, ready to attack Gongsun Ruoxi, when suddenly, the Spirit Vessel lost balance and shot towards the flood dragon's gigantic mouth fifty zhang below!
"Roar!"
At the critical moment of life and death, accompanied by a lion's roar filled with brutality, the golden dragon spirit lion extended its four hooves at the fastest speed, clawing toward the body of the wind and thunder flood dragon with its giant sickle-like claws!
"Splatter, splatter..."
