Before the hand could fall, a figure descended from the sky, a cold dagger pressed firmly against its back: "Let him go, or I'll send you straight to the King of Hell!"
"Hmm?" The Cat Demon glanced slightly behind, a gleaming silver dagger had already pierced its outer skin; this was a warning—if it dared to move, it would be plunged into its heart immediately.
The sudden ambush surprised the Cat Demon. After a moment, a smile appeared on its lips as it slowly released Lian Cheng Xue's neck and said with a laugh, "Oh dear, oh dear, don't be so agitated; I was just joking."
A joke? Xiang Xueer stared at that guy's expression; he really had a face that deserved a slap. She took a step back to maintain distance from the Cat Demon. There was no time to waste; they had to retreat quickly and not linger.
"Tao Tie, hurry and take him away!" After Xiang Xueer spoke, Tao Tie emerged from behind the haystack. With a flick of its Dragon Tail, it sent him onto its back. The Cat Demon sized up Xiang Xueer for a while and exclaimed, "Haha, I didn't expect you to be just a little girl. Not bad; you have some skills!"
"Hmph! Thank you for the compliment!" Xiang Xueer slowly pushed back, quickly following behind Tao Tie as they exited the Celestial Prison. It leaped out of the castle window and hovered in mid-air. Lian Cheng Xue turned and extended a hand: "Shirley, hurry up!"
Xiang Xueer jumped to the window of the towering black fortress. Without hesitation, she leaped out. Lian Cheng Xue grabbed her arm, and the two shared a smile while riding on Tao Tie, showcasing their trust and understanding as partners.
"Exorcist?" The Cat Demon stood still, squinting at the family crest on Xiang Xueer's arm. A girl so young could possess such an impressive Demon Beast like Tao Tie; she must not be an ordinary person!
It suddenly became interested. To silently appear behind someone like that was something even the greatest assassins might struggle to achieve. The Cat Demon revealed an excited smile and slowly approached Xiang Xueer: "Little girl, let me see what other abilities you have!"
At the window's edge appeared a figure with long black hair flowing in the wind; the hem of its long robe flickered. The Cat Demon immediately stopped and crossed its arms: "Oh dear, it seems there's no fun left; Holy Monarch seems more interested than I am!"
"Hmph!" The Black Dragon Saint Lord fixed its Red Eyes on Xiang Xueer, who was preparing to escape into the air. With a transformation, a massive black dragon soared into view. With a roar that echoed through the skies, it shook the Earth.
"What’s going on?" Xiang Xueer and Lian Cheng Xue turned their heads in shock at the sight before them—the black dragon coiled up on top of the Ancient Tower before leaping into the sky with bared fangs heading straight for them.
"Not good, we need to leave quickly!" Taotie exclaimed in panic, carrying two people as he frantically fled. They had unexpectedly encountered the Demon Dragon, truly unfortunate amidst misfortune.
Back in the day, the four generals under the Demon Lord, particularly the Black Dragon Saint Lord who could stand shoulder to shoulder with the Heart Demon, were not to be trifled with. The number of demons and beasts he had killed was countless, and his methods were ruthless and devoid of mercy. He particularly enjoyed leaving only bones behind after devouring his victims, taking pleasure in admiring them in his room.
The sky began to grow chaotic, and a thick black mist enveloped the entire Moon City, obscuring visibility entirely. Xiang Xueer scanned her surroundings with her keen eyes; she could sense that danger was closing in on her. The scent of the black dragon was everywhere, synonymous with death and fear.
"What do we do now?" Lian Cheng Xue tightly gripped her Black Iron Sword, surrounded by darkness where she couldn't even discern direction, let alone find a way out.
Taotie cursed under his breath: "Damn it, I can't tell which way is which anymore. The smell of that black dragon is everywhere; where is the exit?"
"Roar!" Another furious dragon roar echoed from within the black mist. A pair of Red Eyes glared at her. Xiang Xueer swallowed hard; this feeling seemed familiar. Ah, she remembered—the eyes from within the Black Ancient Tower sent chills down her spine, leaving her mind unable to make a judgment.
"Little girl, just in time; I'm not full yet, so you can serve as a snack!" The Red Eyes gradually became visible as the black dragon tilted its head. Just its massive dragon head was as large as a sports stadium.
Staring at Xiang Xueer's small frame, it bared its fangs and let out a roar as it lunged toward them. This was bad; if this continued, not only would she be in danger, but Taotie and Lian Cheng Xue would also be swallowed by this creature.
At that moment, Xiang Xueer made a surprising move. Standing on Taotie's back, she raised her AK-47 and shouted, "Black Dragon, your opponent is me! Let's settle this one-on-one!"
"One-on-one?" The black dragon's red pupils constricted for a moment before it threw its head back and laughed maniacally. "Ah hahahaha! You little fool! I've lived for over a thousand years; aside from that scoundrel Demon Lord, no one has dared to speak to me like this!"
"Oh really?" Xiang Xueer raised her AK-47 and fired several rounds at its eyes. The bullets barely tickled its face, hardly larger than its eye boogers.
As expected, Xiang Xueer slowly stepped back and said to Lian Cheng Xue and Taotie behind her, "I'll act as bait for a while; you two take the opportunity to escape!"
"What! No way!" Lian Cheng Xue immediately refused, saying, "I absolutely will not agree to this. If we're leaving, we leave together!"
"Stop with the nonsense!" Xiang Xueer turned and ordered Taotie, "You have to listen to me now, or the three of us will be wiped out. It's better than waiting to die! Taotie, take him away!"
With a loud shout, she leaped up and used the rebound from Taotie's back to jump onto the head of the Black Dragon. "I've ridden mermaids and serpents; today I'm riding a dragon. Black Dragon, I am your opponent."
In order to break this deadlock, Xiang Xueer made such a decision. Rather than wait for death together, it was better to fight for a chance at survival.
The Black Dragon finally became furious. It lifted its eyelids to look at Xiang Xueer riding on its head and shook its head violently. "Damn girl, get off my head!"
Xiang Xueer tightly grasped its Dragon Horns and sneered, "Stinky Black Dragon, I'm right here on your head. If you have the ability, throw me off! Come on!"
This was an outright provocation to the Black Dragon. Accustomed to being treated like a king, how could it tolerate a human shouting at it from atop its head? It flipped its body in an attempt to shake her off.
This was the most thrilling roller coaster ride Xiang Xueer had ever experienced. Even when facing the Serpent Empress before, she had never felt so dizzy. Soon, the surrounding black mist began to dissipate, and Taotie finally saw the path ahead.
"Taotie! Hurry up and go!" Xiang Xueer shouted loudly, but she had to hold tightly onto its Dragon Horns; otherwise, in just a few seconds, she would be thrown off from this height.
"Hey, Taotie, don't leave! We need to take her with us; we can't leave her here!" Lian Cheng Xue was anxious but couldn't help at all. He began to hate his own uselessness. If Qingtian were here, he could definitely save Shirley without her having to sacrifice herself for his escape.
Taotie was extremely conflicted. Xiang Xueer was buying them time, but it couldn't just leave her behind like that. It carried Lian Cheng Xue a few steps before turning around and shouting, "Master, you must be careful!"
