Chapter 36
Mo Xiaoxin frowned, trying to condense ice flowers to unleash, but the ice flowers suddenly disappeared after condensing. She glared at him angrily: "Bai Long, what have you done?"
The white dragon flicked its tail, stirring up a large splash of water, and said disdainfully, "I've said it before, in this underwater world, I am the master, and you are just a newbie."
The white dragon swam slowly around the water prison, its scales shimmering coldly in the dim light. It watched Mo Xiaoxin, who was constantly trying to condense ice flowers inside the water prison.
Mo Xiaoxin tried to mobilize her spiritual energy, but found that the water prison seemed very strange; it would disappear as soon as she gathered her power.
I tried several times, but all attempts ended in failure.
She punched the wall of the water prison in frustration, only to receive a dull thud and a soreness in her arm.
Seeing this, Bai Long laughed even more arrogantly: "Save your energy. This water prison was forged by me using Xuanbing Water. It can not only imprison your body, but also suppress your spiritual power. Just obediently wait here to die, which will also add a soul to my water prison."
Mo Xiaoxin frowned. How could her power have disappeared?
Isn't her ice magic supposed to be powerful? Why can't she even beat this little trick?
Seeing Mo Xiaoxin's puzzled look, Bailong sneered, "Do you really think your ice magic is that powerful? The only one who's powerful is Yue! You're not even as good as her little finger, yet you think you can deal with me?"
Just as Bailong was feeling smug, Mo Xiaoxin noticed something suddenly appear behind it. Upon closer inspection, she realized it was the Demon God's Staff.
Behind it are Leng Huai and Shadow Mist.
Leng Huai gestured for silence, and Mo Xiaoxin understood. She then pretended to be cursing at Bai Long: "You old bastard, you thought you were some ancient divine beast, but you're just a heartless creature. No wonder your master abandoned you! You deserve it!"
Upon mentioning his master, the white dragon's face suddenly darkened. It glared fiercely at Mo Xiaoxin: "She never acknowledged me as her disciple, so why should I acknowledge her as my master? Do you think she's really a good person? She's nothing but a disgrace to the snake clan! Let me tell you a secret: back then, when Yue fought the Demon God, she could have won. Do you know why she ultimately perished along with the Demon God?"
The white dragon seemed to recall something amusing, revealing a cruel sneer: "She fell in love with a mortal, but he abandoned her, causing her great pain and leading her to contemplate suicide. Too much power breeds loneliness, and the demon god frequently harassed and fought her, which she grew weary of. Then one day, the demon god told her to have a child, for a child would give her hope. The snake race can reproduce parthenogenetically, and she was too lonely, so she listened to the demon god's slander and became pregnant."
Mo Xiaoxin was startled, her gossipy nature rekindled, but then she thought something was amiss: "Since Yue wanted to commit suicide, why didn't the Demon God let her go? Why did he insist on making her pregnant and keeping her alive? Wasn't the Demon God constantly fighting and trying to kill her?"
Bai Long: "Because you would never have guessed that she fell in love with her, but she didn't love her back."
Mo Xiaoxin: "You mean, the Demon God has fallen in love with Yue?"
Wow, I never imagined there could be such a great couple in this world.
Bai Long: "That's right!"
Seeing that Mo Xiaoxin not only didn't see anything wrong with it, but even seemed excited, Bailong's voice turned cold: "Don't you think this is shameful?"
Mo Xiaoxin glanced at Bai Long with disdain and rolled her eyes: "My god, what era is this? Still looking down on homosexuals? They're free to love, and besides, they're gods, what's wrong with that?"
Bai Long angrily said, "Stubborn fool! Yue is a war goddess who lives for the sake of all living beings. She actually wanted to commit suicide for a mortal, and was even loved by a woman! It's a disgrace!"
Mo Xiaoxin got angry too and retorted, "What kind of outdated thinking is that! No one has to live for anyone else; everyone should love themselves and live for themselves! She's just experiencing a setback in love, and instead of comforting her, you're kicking her while she's down and criticizing her. She's really pitiful!"
Seeing that he couldn't reach a consensus with Mo Xiaoxin, Bai Long glared at her and said, "Do you want to know where the child Yue is carrying went?"
You mean she's still alive?
Bai Long: "Those who possess ice magic are extremely rare, and your talent is so high that I can't help but suspect the origins of your background."
Mo Xiaoxin asked in surprise, "You mean I'm that child?"
Mo Xiaoxin shook her head: "How could that be? I've been with my parents since birth. I'm a princess of the Southern Demon Realm. How could I possibly be Yue's child?"
In the original owner's memories, there was never any memory of Yue.
Bai Long snorted coldly: "I don't care whether you are Yue's child or not, but rather than waiting for you to master ice magic, I'd rather destroy you now, so that you won't look down on me like my despicable master did, relying on your powerful magic!"
The white dragon grew angrier as it spoke, and water droplets shot out from its claws, striking Mo Xiaoxin. The water prison boomed, and Mo Xiaoxin lost her footing and fell to the ground.
Mo Xiaoxin lay on the ground, supporting herself with her hands, trying her best not to get hurt.
Mo Xiaoxin's embarrassment made Bai Long laugh loudly: "Don't you know your own limitations? You still dare to provoke me. You won't even know how you died!"
Just as Bailong was about to attack Mo Xiaoxin again, it suddenly realized that something was staring at it intently from behind.
The feeling was terrifying. It turned its head and saw that there was a white dragon that looked exactly like it.
It carefully examined the other, and the other also stared intently at it, just as it reflected in the sunlight when it looked down at the icy pool, moving in sync with each of its every move.
But it's at the bottom of the pool now, how could it possibly project a dragon that looks exactly like itself?
Is it seeing things?
It blinked, and the other party was still there.
"Who are you?" Bai Long sensed that the other party was hostile and immediately became vigilant.
This is the ice domain it established. If anyone were to trespass, it would surely be alerted. However, this dragon suddenly appeared here, and it sensed an unusually powerful and unfathomable force.
The dragon opposite had a cold voice, and its tone was exactly the same as the dragon's: "Who are you?"
A fire ignited in the white dragon's heart; it hated nothing more than someone mimicking its voice: "Where did you come from? This is my Ice Domain! Get out of here right now, or you'll regret it!"
This was the first time in all its long history that someone had dared to trespass into its territory. Its pride was severely threatened, but the white dragon opposite it did not seem to be afraid of its intimidation and continued to mimic its speech.
Bai Long became even angrier and attacked Bai Long opposite him with a palm strike.
Meanwhile, the white dragon on the opposite side seemed to know its moves very well and struck out with a palm in unison.
The two dodged each other at the same time.
Seeing that the Shadow Mist had successfully diverted the White Dragon's attention, Leng Huai and the Demon God Staff secretly approached Mo Xiaoxin.
When Bai Long tried to trick Mo Xiaoxin into entering the pool, Leng Huai sensed something was wrong. However, Mo Xiaoxin was too proud to admit it and insisted on going in alone, so he didn't object. Instead, he quietly followed them from about five meters away.
After getting into the water, his mind cleared up considerably, and he immediately regretted following along.
When has he, the mighty Demon Lord, ever been so humiliated? And he's even following a white dragon?
It makes me furious just thinking about it. Bai Long was injured and his restrictions were reduced. He could have taken this opportunity to escape from this awful place.
But the Demon Staff and Shadow Mist behind him had already caught up, and it seemed a little too late to regret it now.
Oh well, it won't take much time to save that woman anyway.
So by the time he realized what was happening, he was already standing in front of Mo Xiaoxin.
Seeing Mo Xiaoxin trapped in the water prison, he couldn't help but feel a sense of panic, as if Mo Xiaoxin would disappear in front of him at any moment.
He forced himself to suppress the panic and calm down.
Mo Xiaoxin was overjoyed to see them. She whispered to Leng Huai, "This water prison is very strange. I can't use my magic here. I don't know how to escape."
Leng Huai tried to cast a spell in the water to melt the water prison with fire, but his attempts were unsuccessful.
His karmic fire was completely ineffective in the water, and his attempt to save Mo Xiaoxin was thwarted.
Upon seeing the two white dragons, Mo Xiaoxin suddenly understood. A glint of inspiration flashed in her eyes, and she excitedly exclaimed, "Doesn't the Shadow Mist have the ability to copy spells? Now that it has transformed into the appearance of white dragons, it can help me break free from this water prison!"
Leng Huai nodded. He had only thought about having the shadow mist transform into the shape of a white dragon to lure it away, but he hadn't thought of this aspect.
However, although Shadow Mist can change its appearance and imitate skills, it has already recognized a master, so its nature is fire, while White Dragon is water. Water overcomes fire, so naturally Shadow Mist's abilities will be greatly reduced.
However, it's more than enough to fool the White Dragon.
Leng Huai conveyed his thoughts to Shadow Mist in his mind.
Bai Long was locked in a fierce battle with Shadow Mist when he caught a glimpse of Leng Huai and his group by the water prison. He instantly realized that he had fallen into a trap!
Bai Long's eyes flashed, and he guessed, "You are... Shadow Mist!"
Shadow Mist: "You've found out."
White Dragon: "It's said that the Shadow Mist only chooses to copy the strongest, so I must be the strongest among you!"
Bai Long thought to himself, feeling quite pleased with himself: "I, Bai Long, have spent my whole life wandering and being despised by the world, but I never expected to make a name for myself now! You do have good taste."
Bai Long was so smug that he had completely forgotten about Mo Xiaoxin's existence.
It exclaimed, "I can't believe I didn't notice you before! You hid so well! With a capable helper like you, it will be much easier to deceive those demons and monsters in the future. Since you have such discerning eyes, stay by my side and be my assistant. Don't worry, I'll share half of the magic power I gain with you, and we'll live happily and carefree in this icy realm from now on!"
Bailong was daydreaming about his wonderful future life, unaware that the shadow mist had quietly arrived behind him.
Just as Bai Long was stunned, Shadow Mist seized the opportunity to unleash Bai Long's ultimate technique towards the water prison, which was then shattered with a deafening roar.
Bai Long realized what was happening, but it was too late to stop them.
It trembled with rage: "Damn it!"
The white dragon gathered water in front of his chest and struck them angrily.
That attack separated Mo Xiaoxin and Leng Huai by a great distance.
Suddenly, a whirlpool of water appeared in front of Leng Huai, engulfing him and the Demon God Staff.
Shadow Mist tried to rescue Leng Huai, but White Dragon flashed in front of it, blocking its path: "What, still trying to run? I originally wanted you to stay by my side, but it seems I don't need to now. All of you, go and die!"
The white dragon roared again, shaking the entire pool.
Mo Xiaoxin's eardrums trembled from the sound.
She glared at him angrily: "White Dragon! You've committed countless evils and still refuse to admit your mistakes. Let's see how I teach you a lesson today."
Mo Xiaoxin lightly raised her wrist, and a dazzling ice flower condensed in her palm: "Go!"
Countless sharp ice flowers formed razor-sharp ice blades and flew towards the white dragon.
The white dragon's massive body nimbly spun in the air, swatting away the ice blades: "A mere trick."
Shadow Mist also joined the battle, attacking the white dragon.
Bai Long gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with resentment.
The real trouble is here.
Every time it made a move, the Shadow Mist could accurately grasp its thoughts and attack it with the same move. Over time, it became annoyed but did not know how to break the spell.
Mo Xiaoxin knew that her magic was not yet proficient enough to defeat the white dragon in one move.
Shadow Mist could only superficially keep up with White Dragon; over time, White Dragon realized Shadow Mist's weaknesses.
The white dragon grinned, "Your magic is no match for mine! Hahaha, I thought you were someone special! Turns out you're just trash!"
Shadow Mist gritted his teeth: "White Dragon, don't be so arrogant!"
Mo Xiaoxin clenched her fists. Bai Long knew the strength of Shadow Mist, and her top priority was to kill Bai Long.
Seeing the two locked in a fierce battle, Mo Xiaoxin seized the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow from behind.
She formed a hand seal, and the water in the pool quickly condensed into thick ice pillars. She gripped the ice pillars and stabbed them fiercely into the back of the white dragon.
Bai Long cried out in pain, and blood gushed from his back.
"You stupid woman!"
The white dragon roared angrily, "Damn it! You only know how to attack me from behind, don't you know how painful it is to poke someone's wounds?"
Mo Xiaoxin tilted her head and saw that she had just poked the spot that had been burning.
"Oh dear, I'm so sorry." Mo Xiaoxin said these nice words, but there was no trace of regret on her face.
