As I was staring blankly into the Azure Dragon's eyes, it had already rushed in front of me, and it was too late for me to dodge.
Azure Dragon's white folding fan approached my neck, its chilling aura pressing against my throat. As I froze, Feng Su, who had been beside me, pulled me away, averting a close call.
I was terrified! That folding fan was about to pierce my throat.
"Master, are you alright?"
I shook my head. "It's nothing."
You Jianfeng pulled me away, and only then did her tense expression ease slightly. "Feng Su, take Xin'er and get away from here." After saying that, You's aura changed drastically. She made a feint, and a plain, dark whip appeared in her hand.
I couldn't help but become interested; this was the first time I had ever seen You use a magical artifact.
Although the whip in You's hand looked ordinary, like a cheap product made of rough, rotten paper, it actually had a remarkable origin.
The Mountain-Driving Whip is incredibly powerful, capable of driving away rocks and mountains. I remember this whip originally belonged to the Goddess Houtu, who gifted it to You when You was appointed as the Mountain God.
The sound of You whipping it was accompanied by the rustling of wind, and the sharp whip kept lashing at Qinglong.
Sure enough, it lives up to its reputation as a divine artifact; this time, the attack finally caused damage to the Azure Dragon.
As the whip struck the Azure Dragon, its clothes gradually parted to reveal its fair skin, and the dark tortoise shell that had just disappeared was also faintly visible.
"Crack." Another lash landed on Qinglong's shoulder. Qinglong's clothes were already tattered, and this lash left a bright red mark on his fair skin.
The dark tortoise shell gradually cracked, "Bang." It sounded like something breaking. The Black Tortoise, which had just been attached to the Azure Dragon, also reappeared, panting heavily as it lay at the Azure Dragon's feet, its small eyes staring fiercely at us.
You's whip showed no sign of stopping. Seeing that Qinglong and Xuanwu were already severely injured and no longer a threat, I quickly called out to stop You's next move.
When You heard my voice, her raised hand stopped in mid-air. In the end, she was still angry and gave Qinglong and Xuanwu a whip each, but she didn't hit them hard.
"Xin'er, are you alright?" You put away her whip, stepped forward, and pulled me aside to check me carefully.
"I'm fine. Luckily, Feng Su reacted quickly."
"That's good. Next time, you must hide far away. You didn't listen just now."
"I..." I opened my mouth to defend myself, but I couldn't utter a word. It was true that every time I tried to help You, I ended up holding her back.
But I'm not weak when I'm alone.
Well, I guess it's because the bosses I've encountered are all minor characters that make me seem so powerful.
"Nüxin, you traitor! Born a god, yet you're entangled with these demon gods! How can you face the priest?" Qinglong looked at the intimate actions between You and me, his fair face showing a mixture of pain and anger.
"Azure Dragon, what's the point of talking to such a traitor?!"
I... I want to say I'm innocent, I'm not a traitor, and I support you in killing Liu Lieyu.
"Don't you know that later, after my great battle with the Eastern Emperor, I relinquished my position as the ruler of Heaven to the gods?" I tried to reason with them.
"So what? In the end, the Heavenly Court still fell into the hands of another demon god, didn't it?" Xuanwu said, his small eyes fixed on You with resentment, filled with contempt for You. "And he was the most lowly demon cultivator."
