Bankrupt Brink: Rise to Business Titan

"I apparently inherited a nearly bankrupt bookstore!" Lin Xi stared intently at the dusty old bookstore, while his assistant looked utterly confused. Was the boss losing his mind? Even hand...

Chapter 140 You're just a beast

Just then, the corpse of the dragon suddenly began to wriggle.

Then, the dragon's body emerged from the ground, its head slowly rising, its scarlet eyes fixed on Lin Xi, filled with a chilling killing intent.

Lin Xi's pupils constricted; he hadn't expected this guy to still be alive!

The dragon roared and its massive body shot out like lightning, heading straight for Lin Xi.

"Hmph, you're courting death!"

Seeing the dragon charging towards him, Lin Xi's face instantly turned grim.

Immediately, the golden light of his Broken Army Sword surged, and he slashed down fiercely.

The next instant, the sword energy tore through the void and struck the dragon like lightning.

Immediately afterwards, a crisp sound rang out, and a bloody wound was cleaved open on the dragon's massive body, from which blood gushed out.

A small piece of its scale was cut off by the sword energy. The dragon howled in pain and glared at Lin Xi with resentment before charging madly at him.

"Hmph, you're courting death."

Lin Xi's face was gloomy as he gripped the Po Jun Sword, pointing it directly at the dragon's head. As Lin Xi approached the dragon, its tail swept across fiercely, sending Lin Xi flying.

Blood gushed from Lin Xi's mouth, and his body slid through the air like a kite with a broken string. At this moment, the dragon roared again, its massive body hurtling towards Lin Xi like a cannonball.

"hateful!"

Seeing the oncoming dragon, Lin Xi cursed inwardly. Despite his speed, he was completely outmatched by the dragon. The dragon's strength far surpassed his own; he couldn't withstand it and could only dodge in a sorry state.

Finally, the dragon's massive tail slammed heavily into Lin Xi's chest, causing him to cough up blood and appear somewhat listless. However, a glint of madness flashed in Lin Xi's eyes.

He pushed off the ground with all his might, his entire body slamming into the dragon's belly like a cannonball. However, as he collided with the dragon, the Po Jun sword in his hand pierced deeply into the dragon's abdomen.

The dragon let out a shrill scream, its massive body writhing violently. Just then, its abdomen suddenly exploded.

A cloud of blood mist erupted violently, landing on the trees on both sides and corroding the weeds into ash—a horrifying scene.

Lin Xi's expression changed drastically. After the dragon's abdomen exploded, an extremely terrifying force swept over, heading straight for Lin Xi.

"not good!"

Lin Xi's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly retreated. However, before he could react, the force had already caught up with him and sent him flying.

Bang!

With a muffled thud, Lin Xi crashed heavily to the ground, smashing a large hole in the bluestone slab. Not only that, Lin Xi also felt a vague pain inside his body.

He knew this was a consequence of the explosion in the dragon's abdomen!

"This...how is this possible?!"

Lin Xi's face instantly turned pale, his heart pounded, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead. The explosive power from the dragon's belly was truly astonishing!

Just as Lin Xi was filled with doubt and surprise, the dragon roared again, its massive body rising from the ground and charging towards Lin Xi. Seeing the ferocious dragon, Lin Xi quickly stood up, his eyes filled with panic.

The dragon was incredibly fast, arriving in front of Lin Xi in the blink of an eye.

Lin Xi gritted his teeth, swung his arm, and punched the dragon's body hard.

The punch landed heavily on the dragon, the enormous impact sending it flying and crashing into a tree trunk more than ten feet away.

Clearly, this punch was incredibly powerful, shattering the hard wood into pieces.

"Cough cough..."

Lin Xi collapsed to the ground, her face deathly pale.

But he quickly got up and fought the dragon again.

The two clashed fiercely in mid-air, with Lin Xi's Broken Army Sword continuously slashing out, leaving behind dazzling trails.

Each time the sword flashed, the dragon would let out a painful roar.

Just a quarter of an hour later, Lin Xi had pierced through all the scales on the dragon's body.

Fresh blood dripped continuously from the broken scales.

Even so, a slight smile appeared on Lin Xi's lips.

At this moment, the dragon's anger had reached its peak.

Its enormous body transformed into a giant snake, coiling around Lin Xi.

Lin Xi's face turned even uglier.

He knew that if he couldn't defeat this dragon, he would surely die today.

Even so, Lin Xi did not give up.

He knew that the dragon was on the verge of collapse, and if he let his guard down, they could both die here.

The next moment, Lin Xi once again used the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique) to avoid the dragon's entanglement.

Then, his figure transformed into a streak of light and sped forward.

However, after running for more than ten meters, the dragon stood up from the ground, its massive body standing like a mountain.

Then, it suddenly opened its mouth and spat out a huge fireball.

The fireball was as big as an adult calf, carrying endless heat and high temperature, and the surrounding area was enveloped in a scorching aura.

The fireball arced through the air and slammed into Lin Xi, causing his expression to change once again.

Then, the fireball exploded.

A huge crater appeared where Lin Xi was standing, and the ground was engulfed in flames as the fire spread.

"That beast has really gone mad."

Witnessing this, Lin Xi was secretly alarmed: "No, if this continues, I'll be burned alive!"

With this in mind, he unhesitatingly activated his soul power, controlling the Breaking Army Sword to pierce the dragon's brow.

The dragon seemed to sense the danger and immediately roared to the sky, its power growing even stronger.

Then, it pounced directly at Linxi.

Seeing the dragon charging straight at him, Lin Xi's eyes widened in fear.

This guy, wasn't he supposed to be just a wild beast? How come he's not even afraid of his own flesh and blood?

Lin Xi muttered to herself, puzzled.

But he didn't think too much about it. Instead, he quickly poured the true energy in his body into the Po Jun Sword.
