Chapter 115 Killing the 3rd Prince
The two immortals reminisced about the past, trying to figure out whether Venus actually had such a mount.
But no matter how hard they tried to recall, they couldn't find a single clue.
Venus cultivated for an extremely long time, and it's unknown how many secrets and trump cards he possesses.
Even if Lin Xuanzhen was related to this old immortal, they would never know.
"What should we do? What if this really is Venus Immortal's person?" The tall Taoist priest was sweating profusely.
The short Taoist priest swallowed hard and said, "It shouldn't be, right? If it were, why would we have been sent down to the mortal realm to capture him in the first place!"
The tall Taoist priest kept shaking his head.
"You just don't understand, do you? We both know life is better in the mortal realm, and of course Venus's mount knows it too!"
"Perhaps he was simply craving worldly pleasures and came here specifically to enjoy them! After his scheme was exposed, Venus, the Immortal, lost face and sent us to capture him."
"Think about it carefully. If that weren't the case, why would the old immortal say such things?"
The more they thought about it, the more likely it seemed; it was as if everything made sense.
It was precisely because Lin Xuan was related to Taibai Jinxing that Taibai Jinxing told the Jade Emperor that he didn't need to worry about him.
Major issues to minor ones out.
If Lin Xuan was Taibai Jinxing's mount, it would be understandable if he initially refused to reveal his true strength and only unleashed it when forced into a desperate situation.
They're too powerful; they're afraid of being discovered!
Even Lin Xuan's audacity to challenge Ao Bing has an explanation!
You dragons are lackeys of the Heavenly Court, somewhere between wild dogs and watchdogs, but I, Lin Xuan, am a person of Taibai Jinxing.
Even among lackeys, there are differences in rank!
The two men thought it over and found it increasingly reasonable. Sweating profusely, they silently retreated, completely abandoning the idea of making a move.
Sending the dragons to capture Lin Xuan might fool the Jie Sect, but it wouldn't fool Taibai Jinxing.
Even if Venus doesn't say anything to your face, he will definitely hold you accountable afterward.
If we offend his mount, will we have any good fortune in the future?
The tall Taoist priest suddenly cried out in surprise, clutching his stomach: "Oh dear! I think I ate something bad for lunch, my stomach hurts!"
"Hey bro, you hold on a bit, I'm going to use the restroom."
The short Taoist priest was speechless with anger. "We are both immortals, how could we possibly get food poisoning?"
Even if you swallow a mountain of garbage, you won't get a stomachache at all!
However, he also knew that the tall Taoist priest was making excuses, so he rolled his eyes and followed suit.
"Ouch, my stomach hurts too! Looks like that restaurant really was a rip-off! We're going to settle the score with them later!"
"What was the name of that shop again? I think it started with the character 'Hua'?"
The two ran off into the distance, one after the other, initially pretending not to run too fast.
After they left the area of Qiantang Pass, they neither pretended nor pretended, and turned into two streaks of light.
The cultivators outside the city were puzzled upon seeing this. When did two such powerful figures appear in Chen Tang Pass? What were their backgrounds?
But before they could figure out what was going on, they heard a burst of laughter coming from afar.
Another dragon emerged from the sea.
"Hahaha! Ao Bing, your self-inflicted injury ruse actually looks quite convincing!"
"If I hadn't already known your true colors, I would have almost been fooled by you!"
Ao Jia looked at Ao Bing, whose body was covered in wounds, and laughed so hard he almost fell over, feeling extremely relieved.
Upon hearing this, the dragons in the sea were dumbfounded, staring at Ao Jia, never expecting him to say such a thing.
When Ao Jia confronted Ao Bing, the news was kept tightly under wraps, and not a single word of it leaked out.
Afterwards, Ao Jia was furious. He returned to his palace, locked himself in his room, and raged. The East Sea Dragon Clan was unaware of the inside story.
They assumed that the Crown Prince was driven to impotent rage by the fact that his subordinates had died and the true culprit could not be caught.
Some of the more astute dragons realized something and thought to themselves, "So these two princes had a falling out? This is troublesome!"
They all originally thought that the eldest prince had come to help.
However, judging from the current situation, it would be good enough if the Crown Prince didn't cause any trouble!
Nezha was already prepared to run away, wrapped in the Hun Tian Ling and holding the Qian Kun Quan.
As long as the dragons from the sea attack, he will take Lin Xuan and escape.
As for Nezha's family in Chentang Pass, he did not consider them.
He didn't think the dragons would be so despicable as to use his family as hostages.
When Nezha heard the Crown Prince's words, he was equally surprised. He looked at Ao Jia in the distance and then at Lin Xuan.
"Lin Xuan, how do you know this guy won't help Ao Bing?"
Lin Xuan was already a little nervous, and Ao Jia's sudden appearance was completely unexpected.
In Nezha's mind, this person wouldn't even bother to join the fun.
He was worried that he might have made things too big, causing problems in the instance and leading to uncontrollable consequences.
But when he heard Ao Jia's words, he finally felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
"I told you a long time ago to ignore him, why didn't you believe me?"
"Alright, I see Ao Bing's health isn't high either. Let's hurry and finish him off!"
"Health points?" Nezha raised an eyebrow, finding the term unfamiliar, yet easy to understand.
He nodded and said, "That's right! We've been taking turns fighting him for so long, his injuries are serious, he really can't hold on for much longer!"
After saying this, Nezha pulled out the Hun Tian Ling from his body and attacked Ao Bing once again.
At this moment, Ao Bing's eyes were filled with red, even his golden vertical pupils were stained with blood red, exuding a strange aura.
"Want to kill me? You're kidding me!" Ao Bing's voice was hoarse, and he spoke slowly and deliberately, as if he had completely lost his mind.
He didn't even bother to dodge the attacks from Lin Xuan and Nezha, and instead met them with his two claws.
Seeing this, Nezha dared not be negligent. He retrieved the Hun Tian Ling and the Qian Kun Quan to his front and assumed a defensive stance.
He had already noticed that Ao Bing's attacks had become much stronger, and if he were hit by that claw, he would definitely lose half his life.
However, Lin Xuan's gaze swept over Ao Bing's head.
[17200/20000000]
Only a sliver of health remained; the entire health bar was completely empty and black.
Lin Xuan silently began to calculate in his mind.
"This guy's defense is at zero; every hit I land can be considered true damage."
"With his remaining 17,000 health, I could easily wipe him out in one hit and kill him instantly! The key question is whether I can withstand his attacks?"
"If it's not impossible, then it's a matter of trading one's life for his..."
Lin Xuan looked at his health bar, which was also running low.
After a moment, Lin Xuan made up his mind.
The appearance of Ao Jia is ultimately a variable. Who knows if other, even more powerful dragons will arrive if the delay continues?
More importantly, after more than an hour of fierce fighting, the adage "even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake" is about to lose its effectiveness.
On his system panel, this entry had already started flashing and would soon disappear.
If Lin Xuan really waits until then, he will suffer a huge loss.
Seeing this, Nezha would definitely disregard everything and run away with him.
If Ao Bing missed this opportunity, he would definitely die, but that would be a long time later. Lin Xuan would never have another chance to devour the bloodline of this true dragon.
Moreover, his use of the allusion skill in front of so many people today will definitely cause a huge uproar afterwards.
What if it attracts the attention of the Heavenly Court again?
He didn't have much time left; he had to complete the mission as soon as possible, devour enough true dragons, and transform into the Sea-Overturning Demon Dragon.
Only in that way would he have some ability to contend with the Heavenly Court.
Thinking of this, Lin Xuan took a deep breath, made up his mind, stopped dodging, took Ao Bing's claw head-on, and seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack and take Ao Bing away.
"He only attacked with one claw, so his attack power was only half. I can withstand it!"
Lin Xuan adjusted his body to face the dragon's claws, and his speed suddenly increased, which surprised Nezha.
"Lin Xuan, what are you doing? Get on defense!"
But no matter how much he shouted, Lin Xuan ignored him.
Ao Bing was overjoyed at the sight: "Fine! Lin Xuan, if you're courting death, then I'll grant your wish!"
On the sea, Ao Jia saw this scene and frowned sharply.
So Lin Xuan really is Lao San's man? He discovered I was here and was afraid I would capture him and the truth would come out, so he deliberately sought death!
"Hmph, the third brother certainly has a way with people; he can get his men to risk their lives for him!"
"If I hadn't come today, I'm afraid he would have really gotten away with it."
Ao Jia sneered, left the sea, and headed towards the land.
Instantly, a sharp and piercing notification sounded in Lin Xuan's ear.
[WARNING! The current instance has changed and is about to end. The damage you deal will be automatically converted into tokens!]
[Please be prepared, you will respawn at the respawn point after the dungeon ends!]
Annoying!
Lin Xuan frowned and closed the system notification. He had no way out at this point. Even if the dungeon closed in the next moment, he had to kill Ao Bing first.
At this moment, his dragon might surged, and killing intent filled the air.
The black mist, carrying a fishy smell, suddenly contracted and returned to Lin Xuan's body, becoming almost tangible, transforming into a suit of armor.
"Snap!"
Ao Bing's claws struck the black mist, which shattered instantly without offering any resistance.
This black mist could indeed serve as a protective barrier, but Lin Xuan could only learn this supernatural ability once he reached level 60.
He simply relied on the allusion skill to forcibly level up to 100, directly improving his stats, and his existing skills and abilities were also enhanced.
However, these new skills cannot be mastered on one's own.
Lin Xuan was not alarmed. He had long known that the black mist was useless to him, and he had just retracted it to create a smokescreen.
Let's see if we can make Ao Bing wary.
Since Ao Bing didn't react, then so be it.
Lin Xuan took Ao Bing's claw head-on, and the excruciating pain sent waves of pain through his brain, making him feel dizzy and his vision blur.
At that moment, even consciousness was about to disappear.
However, Lin Xuan still managed to maintain the last shred of clarity with all his might.
"Die!"
His head was still held by Ao Bing's claws, but his body continued to move forward like a pendulum.
The head remains still, the body moves forward, and the tail is the fastest.
[Dragon's Tail Swing!]
boom! boom! boom!
Lin Xuan's tail struck Ao Bing. The first strike was the strongest, producing a huge roar, and was then bounced away by the recoil.
Lin Xuan had lost control of his body. His tail snapped away and then fell back down, striking Ao Bing.
After three attempts, his body finally stopped moving, frozen in mid-air.
"Is this guy dead?" Lin Xuan asked blankly, still not having recovered.
He hadn't clearly seen how much health Ao Bing had lost, or whether he had a sliver of health left.
"If we fail to kill him, we'll be in trouble; we'll have to let Nezha finish him off."
"Hey, I'm usually the one stealing kills from NPCs, but this time it's the other way around! Wait a minute, I've become sworn brothers with Nezha, so can we share experience points?"
Lin Xuan started to have random thoughts and didn't hear the system's notification.
[Congratulations on defeating 'Ao Bing, the Third Prince of the East Sea'...]
