Chapter 348 You Go First
At this moment, Ye Jiu felt an endless surge of power within him!
The Jiao dragon's tail struck the protective shield heavily, causing both Ye Ling and Ye Jiu to bleed from the corners of their mouths.
"Boss, this is insanely twisted! That slap almost sent me flying!"
Ye Jiu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said with a grin.
"That slap should have left you gravely injured, on the brink of death; unfortunately, it didn't kill you both outright!"
"I will make you understand what it means to offend my demon dragon clan!"
Violent brutality surfaced on the Jiao dragon's face as its huge dragon eyes fixed intensely on Ye Ling and Ye Jiu.
Upon hearing the Jiao dragon's words, cold sweat dripped down the foreheads of Ye Ling and Ye Jiu and fell along their cheeks.
Although this Jiao dragon's words were unpleasant, it was undeniable that it was indeed skilled!
Ye Ling and Ye Jiu exchanged a glance.
Ye Ling breathed out turbid air and showed a resolute look in his eyes, then said to Ye Jiu.
"Ye Jiu, you go first!"
"I'll hold this beast off!"
At Ye Ling's words, Ye Jiu was slightly stunned, his eyes wide open in disbelief as he asked, "Boss, what did you say?!"
"I said, you go first!"
Ye Ling repeated, his tone exceptionally firm.
"Boss, how could I abandon you and escape alone?"
"I, Ye Ling, am simply not that kind of person!"
A resolute expression flashed across Ye Jiu's face as he firmly shook his head.
"How about this! You take Miss Hong Meigui and go first; I'll cover our retreat. Don't worry, I definitely won't let anything happen to me!"
Ye Ling looked at Ye Jiu with a serious face.
Ye Jiu shook his head and said firmly, "Boss, in this lifetime, I am your brother, Ye Jiu."
"I can't leave you behind and escape on my own!"
Warmed by Ye Jiu's words, a touch of warmth rose in Ye Ling's heart.
"Ye Jiu, be good and go first!"
"I'm confident I can handle this!"
Ye Ling's tone grew increasingly strict, and Ye Jiu, realizing his resolute stance, hesitated for a moment but ultimately chose to leave with Hong Meigui in tow, gritting his teeth.
"Damn it, stay behind!"
Seeing Ye Jiu's action, the demon dragon roared furiously as its massive tail harshly smashed towards Ye Jiu.
At that scene, Ye Ling's pupils suddenly constricted.
"Ye Jiu, dodge!"
Ye Ling bellowed, his figure instantly darting forward.
"Bang!"
The moment Ye Ling dashed out, the giant tail slammed hard onto the ground.
"Rumble!"
The entire cave seemed to quake, with rocks shattering and dust filling the air.
"Boom!"
With Ye Ling's help, Ye Jiu narrowly dodged the demon dragon's attack.
And at that moment, the demon dragon's other claw reached straight for Ye Ling, its sharp claws tearing through the air as if shredding tofu, arriving in an instant.
Seeing this, Ye Ling couldn't help but be startled; a strike like that, if it hit, would leave him with no chance of survival.
"Swoosh!"
His body spinning, Ye Ling evaded the demon dragon's fierce strike and then quickly dashed toward the cave wall.
Ye Ling was swift, reaching the side of the cave wall in the blink of an eye.
"Pfft!"
A claw struck heavily against the cave wall, turning the solid rock into powder.
"Damn it, do I look like I'm made of clay?"
Being continuously provoked by the Jiao dragon, anyone would be boiling with rage, let alone the mighty Northern Liao King.
Ye Ling beckoned with a large hand, and a streak of red light flashed by; the demonic blade materialized in his grasp.
Meanwhile, at Ye Ling's side, there was a sharpness in the air.
It was the essence of the blade!
Ye Ling gripped the magic sword in his hand, a surging power flowing along the blade, instantly elevating the red glow dispersed from it to its pinnacle.
A terrifyingly powerful blade intent burst forth from the edge of the sword.
"Swish swish!"
Ye Ling's body spun rapidly like a top.
With the magic sword in hand, Ye Ling leaped into the air and brought it down fiercely!
"Whoosh!"
The sword cleaved through the void, a dazzling streak of light slashing viciously towards the demon dragon!
As the sword light passed, the entire cavern shook violently.
"Roar!"
The demon dragon let out an outraged roar to the heavens, swiping brutally at Ye Ling's sword light with its claw.
"Boom!"
A loud explosion, the terrible wind blast forced one to shut their eyes involuntarily.
"Crack!"
A sharp sound of breaking echoed as Ye Ling's terrifying sword light was shattered by the demon dragon's claw.
"What's going on?"
Ye Ling's face showed disbelief.
Although he hadn't used his full strength with that slash, the power was nonetheless staggering. How could it have been so easily neutralized?
Looking at the demon dragon before him, Ye Ling took a deep breath, his heart pounding ceaselessly.
"Boss, I know you're powerful, but in front of the Jiao Dragon, we must unite our efforts!"
Ye Jiu shouted from the side, his face filled with concern.
"Don't worry! Ye Jiu, you and Hong Meigui go first, I'll hold it off!"
Ye Ling said with a smile upon hearing Ye Jiu's words.
"No, I won't abandon the boss!"
Ye Jiu shook his head.
Looking at the unwavering Ye Jiu, Ye Ling felt a surge of relief in his heart.
He was well aware of the kind of person Ye Jiu was. Ye Jiu's actions surely stemmed from his own reasoning and undoubtedly were meant to protect him. Discover exclusive tales on My Virtual Library Empire
"Alright, if you really want to die with me, then just stand aside and don't move!"
"However, you must promise me, if you face any danger, you must leave immediately!"
Ye Ling instructed.
"Boss, I swear I'll never leave you behind!"
Ye Jiu hastily raised his hand and swore in response to Ye Ling's words.
Suddenly, Ye Ling took a deep breath, mobilizing the violent power within his body fully.
"Rumble rumble!"
In front of Ye Ling, a black dragon tail lashed wildly.
With the sweep of the dragon's tail, the whole cave shook violently; the rocks on the ground that were struck by the tail disintegrated into rubble.
As the demon dragon furiously bore down on him, Ye Ling's expression grew incredibly grave.
He knew that this battle would be the pinnacle of his life!
"Rumble rumble!"
With a loud noise, Ye Ling flipped his wrist, and the magic sword appeared in his grasp. He gripped the hilt tightly and thrust fiercely at the demon dragon.
"Zi-la!"
The magic sword tore through the void, a cold, chilling light flashing as Ye Ling aimed directly for the dragon's head!
"Courting death!"
The demon dragon bellowed in response.
One of its dragon horns shot out fiercely.
"Swoosh!"
"Clang!"
The two attacks collided, producing a metallic sound that screeched through the air.
