And you?
Ice Soul's eyes were as cold as icy stars, fixed intently on the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise before her, as if trying to see right through them. Her voice was chilling, carrying undisguised contempt and disdain.
The Azure Dragon snorted coldly. As one of the Four Divine Beasts, it possessed its own pride. It straightened its body and arrogantly replied, "Kill me if you want, why waste words?"
Baihu was more direct. He suddenly unleashed an astonishing aura, and every word he uttered was resolute: "Even if it means self-destruction, I will never compromise with you!"
His eyes were firm and resolute, revealing a determination to face death without fear.
Xuanwu's expression remained indifferent, but his words were equally resounding: "We, the Four Divine Beasts, can be killed but not humiliated!" This statement was not merely a declaration, but rather a belief deep within their hearts.
Bingpo's eyebrows furrowed slightly, seemingly surprised by the reactions of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise. However, this surprise lasted only a moment before she quickly regained her composure, even a cold smile appearing on her lips.
"The so-called Four Divine Beasts are nothing but overconfident and useless trash in my eyes."
Ice Soul's tone was full of mockery and disdain, "Since you are so eager to die, then I will grant your wish! But... who should I kill first?"
Her gaze swept back and forth between the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise, finally settling on the dying Vermilion Bird. A wicked smile appeared on Ice Soul's face as she softly said, "Let's kill her first!"
Upon hearing this, the faces of Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise instantly turned extremely grim. They never expected that Ice Soul would choose to attack the heavily injured Vermilion Bird first.
Without the slightest hesitation, they immediately flashed forward and launched an attack on Bingpo.
At this moment, they no longer cared about the disparity in strength between them, and they would absolutely not stand by and watch Suzaku be killed.
"Overestimating yourself!" Bingpo sneered disdainfully. With a casual wave of her hand, three powerful and unparalleled binding forces surged out like a raging torrent.
Before the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise could even get close to Ice Soul, their bodies were already tightly bound and restrained by these three extremely terrifying binding forces, unable to move an inch.
"This...this..."
Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise stared in horror at the Ice Soul before them, their hearts filled with shock.
Although they knew that Bingpo's strength was unfathomable, they never expected that she would be so powerful!
With just a simple wave of his hand, he was able to easily trap the three of them completely. This extraordinary ability was clearly far beyond their expectations.
"An ant trying to shake a tree!" Bingpo's face was full of contempt and disdain, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, his lips curled into a sneer, and his eyes were filled with indifference and disdain.
Then, in a cold and stern voice, she said, "I'm giving you one last chance. Tell me how to break the seal right now!"
"My patience has its limits, so don't talk to me about anything irrelevant!" Bingpo's voice grew increasingly stern and cold, as if it could penetrate one's soul.
At this moment, the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise were so angry that their eyes were wide open, and their anger had reached its peak, but they dared not speak easily.
They were afraid that if they said even the slightest wrong word, Bingpo would kill Zhuque without hesitation.
However, Suzaku remained unusually calm in the face of death, and could even be described as fearless.
She replied weakly, "Just kill me if you want, why all this fuss?"
Then, she took a deep breath and continued, "My three brothers are not cowards, you... you should save your energy!"
Upon hearing this, Bingpo's face instantly turned extremely gloomy, her eyes flashing with a fierce and sinister light as she stared intently at Zhuque. She said in an almost indifferent tone, "Are you in such a hurry to die?"
Zhuque looked extremely desolate and sorrowful. She sighed softly and replied helplessly, "If there is a chance to survive, who would willingly give up their life to seek death?"
At this point, Zhuque, enduring excruciating pain, turned her head with difficulty, her gaze falling on Qinglong, Baihu, and Xuanwu. Her voice trembled, carrying a hint of determination: "My three brothers, since we are all going to die anyway, let's all self-destruct our origins!"
Upon hearing this, Bingpo's expression changed drastically.
It should be understood that once the essence of a divine beast self-destructs, its power is enough to destroy the heavens and the earth, and as a close target, she would inevitably perish.
Although she was only an avatar at this moment, she still cherished her life and was unwilling to die easily.
"You...you mustn't act recklessly!" Bingpo's tone revealed obvious panic. "As long as you tell me how to break the seal, I can guarantee that I will not harm your lives!"
Faced with the current situation, Bingpo felt a sense of panic, because she knew very well that she was not entirely confident that she could stop the four divine beasts from self-destructing.
A cold sneer appeared on Zhuque's lips as she said sharply, "Hmph, I didn't expect that even a high and mighty Demon Lord avatar like you would be afraid?"
Then, her gaze hardened. "Now you only have two choices: either get out of here right now, or you'll be wiped out with us!"
The last sentence was full of provocation and threat.
"How dare you threaten me?"
Bingpo's face was extremely gloomy, as if it could drip water. She knew that if she gave up now, the current Demon Lord—who was also Bingpo's first incarnation—would definitely not let her off easily when she returned.
Suzaku said coldly, "That's right, I'm threatening you!"
Upon hearing this, Bingpo trembled with rage, his eyes blazing with fury. He roared uncontrollably, "Fine! Fine! Fine! You ignorant fools, how dare you try to scare me like this!"
"Do you really think I'm afraid of you self-destructing your origins?"
Zhuque stared coldly at Bingpo, responding without fear: "We're not bluffing, we're serious! Even if it means a fight to the death, we will never yield to you!"
Having said that, Zhuque turned to look at Qinglong, Baihu, and Xuanwu beside him, and saw that their expressions were all resolute, just like his own. Clearly, they had all prepared for the worst.
Just as they were preparing to detonate their own power, suddenly, a dazzling streak of multicolored light streaked across the distant sky, hurtling toward them at an astonishing speed.
The beam of light was as swift as lightning, reaching Ice Soul in the blink of an eye.
As the multicolored light was about to strike Bingpo, everyone's hearts were in their throats.
However, unexpectedly, at the critical moment, Bingpo narrowly avoided the attack with his extremely agile skills.
