Chapter 21 Drawing the Halberd



Shen Yunhao's strength was indeed considerable, but it was clearly not a matter of strength now, but rather... there seemed to be some kind of restriction on that blood halberd, preventing others from getting close.

"Eeya!"

But the little clam spirit stared at him relentlessly with her big eyes, the hope in them undiminished.

After a brief struggle, Shen Yunhao finally gave in to the little guy's innocent gaze and said helplessly, "Then I'll give it a try. I just hope I don't die while trying..."

That being said, after observing just now, Shen Yunhao felt that he would most likely be repelled by the Blood Halberd like the little clam spirit, and would not suffer serious injuries... That's why he had the courage to give it a try.

However, Shen Yunhao did not notice that just as he was about to try it himself, Bai Long's eyes, which had been closed for a long time, suddenly opened!

Shen Yunhao composed himself, gave himself a silent pep talk, and then slowly walked up to the blood halberd.

The little white dragon, who had just woken up, had a moment of confusion in her pale purple dragon eyes. When she came to her senses, Shen Yunhao had already come to the side of the dragon's belly and was raising a hand to try to touch the blood halberd.

When she saw that Shen Yunhao was just a mortal, and the little clam spirit cheering him on from behind, she instantly understood and subconsciously wanted to remind him.

"Don't...don't come any closer!"

However, she was too badly injured to even speak, and could only let out a faint dragon's roar...

Shen Yunhao raised his hand and touched the blood-red halberd!

As expected, a crimson light immediately appeared on the Blood Halberd, ready to kill this weak mortal on the spot!

But at that moment, a light blue glow suddenly emanated from the white dragon's body, spreading out like waves and enveloping Shen Yunhao's entire body before the red light emitted by the blood halberd could strike him.

The red light shone on the blue light "outer garment," tumbled twice, and slowly dissipated.

Shen Yunhao closed his eyes, bracing himself for being knocked away, but after waiting for a long time, he saw no reaction from the Blood Halberd. When he opened his eyes again, he found that his small hands were safely gripping the halberd.

"Huh? I'm actually alright?"

Shen Yunhao was quite surprised.

The little clam spirit behind immediately cried out joyfully.

"Oh my! Oh my!"

Then they hopped and skipped over, wanting to come and help.

"Bang—"

As expected, he was thrown away.

"..."

After pondering for a moment, Shen Yunhao guessed, "This halberd might be some kind of immortal treasure, which has a strong repellent effect on demons. That's why I was fine when I touched it, but the little guy was bounced away as soon as he touched it."

Shen Yunhao himself couldn't see the blue light protective film enveloping his body, which is why he made this guess. The only one who knew the truth was probably the Seventh Princess, who was lying on the ground unable to move!

Those purple eyes widened in shock.

"This...this mortal is so friendly with Han Haixin that the magic weapon actively protects him?"

She was severely injured and no longer had the ability to activate the Vast Ocean Heart. However, the treasure of the sea race automatically protected her dragon soul under these circumstances; otherwise, she would have been dead long ago with such severe injuries.

This was the special "care" she received as the member of the North Sea Dragon Clan who was most compatible with Han Haixin.

But!

But the boy in front of her was clearly just an ordinary person with no cultivation, yet he caused the Vast Ocean Heart within her to actively dispel the killing intent of the Blood Soul Halberd for him!

This shows that the little boy's compatibility with Han Haixin far surpasses that with hers!

Normally, the little white dragon might have felt a little envious and puzzled, but at this moment she only felt happy.

"With Han Haixin protecting him, can he help me pull out the Blood Soul Halberd? As long as the Blood Soul Halberd is broken, I can restore my spiritual energy and heal my injuries!"

Unable to make a sound, the seventh princess could only watch helplessly as the little boy rolled over and sat on her back.

"..."

The main feature is that the white dragon's body is very thick in its original state, and it is more than a meter tall even when it is lying flat on the ground.

Although Shen Yunhao could grasp the Blood Halberd, it was inconvenient for him to exert force. Sitting on its back would make it much easier.

Actually, Shen Yunhao hadn't planned to help the little white dragon; at the very least, he wanted to observe for a while first.

Because no one can be sure whether the awakened white dragon will turn around and eat you after you save it, because it is in pain.

However, the longer he stayed by Bailong's side, the stronger that feeling of intimacy became.

Especially in the instant he touched the Blood Halberd, he felt a strange connection between himself and the white dragon in front of him, which gave rise to a strong desire to help her.

He was naturally unaware that this sense of intimacy stemmed from the precious treasure of the sea, the Heart of the Vast Ocean.

Shen Yunhao gripped the halberd with both hands, took a deep breath, and began to pull it outwards with force.

"Oh my! Oh my!"

The little clam spirit waved its chubby little hands, seemingly cheering Shen Yunhao on.

"Eek..."

A sharp pain shot through her, and the Seventh Princess, who was not far away, immediately gritted her teeth, but still couldn't help but let out a low moan.

Fortunately, Shen Yunhao was focused on pulling out the spear and didn't notice.

However, the result was still disappointing.

The blood-stained halberd was deeply embedded in the dragon's body, as heavy as a ten-thousand-pound lead block, and no matter how hard Chen Yunhao exerted himself, it did not budge.

"Oh my god, how deep is this thing stuck? We can't pull it out at all!"

Shen Yunhao rubbed his sore arm from overexertion and said dejectedly.

Seeing this, the Seventh Princess's mood plummeted once again.

As expected, I couldn't escape it after all.

Yes, even with the protection of the Vast Ocean Heart, what can he do? He is ultimately just a mortal with limited abilities.

The feeling of hope being ignited only to be extinguished in an instant filled the little white dragon with immense sorrow, and he took a deep breath.

However, even a small movement by the little white dragon in its original form could cause quite a stir, immediately alerting Shen Yunhao.

He turned around in a panic, only to meet a pair of pitiful, pale purple eyes.

"..."

The atmosphere froze for a moment, and Shen Yunhao didn't know what to say.

However, amidst his fear, he could clearly sense that those watery dragon eyes were filled with emotions unique to humans!

Disappointment, sadness, confusion, and fear were all mixed together. And her once lively purple eyes now appeared pale, filled with an aura of death.

Just like withered leaves gradually falling, life seeps into the body little by little.

"Ahem... Um, can you understand me? I was just trying to help you pull this halberd out, I meant no harm..."

As Shen Yunhao rolled off the dragon's back, he explained.

Based on the emotions in the dragon's eyes, he was quite certain that this great white dragon was intelligent and could definitely understand him.

So the most urgent thing is to kneel down and admit defeat... cough, that is, to show your goodwill and avoid causing unnecessary misunderstandings.
