"If you want to say I'm strong, you can't just say I'm strong."
Ji Hao glanced at Yao Si, "You also need to mention my majestic figure and my flowing blade work."
As he spoke, he had already charged forward at full speed like an arrow released from a bowstring.
Zhou You slowly followed behind, his Left Hand gripping the scabbard, his Right Hand on the sword hilt, already beginning to charge up his Qi.
Anyway, someone else was leading the charge; he just needed to pick up the scraps.
Yao Si followed behind Zhou You, "Young Master, do your Moves have names? Saying them out loud would make it more believable. Also, what is your Blood Spirit? I need to know some things first."
Zhou You did not answer, for he had no answer to give.
He merely quickened his pace, moving faster and faster, light-footed as if flying.
"Roar!"
Ahead, a roar shook the heavens.
Boom!
Ji Hao was wildly cool and flamboyant, striking down with a blade from mid-air.
The water Jiao was directly split apart, then it turned into two water Jiao s.
Yao Si stopped, the aftermath of the attack raged ahead, impacting him so much that he couldn't stand steadily.
He certainly dared not get any closer.
Looking at Zhou You again, he was still moving forward.
"Truly worthy of a strong person; his Heart-Nature is so calm."
Yao Si secretly admired him; this was a true strong person, completely unhurried, unperturbed, and fearless.
Look at his steps; the distance of each step was almost identical!
Boom!
Ji Hao swung his blade, continuously slashing, causing the ground to shatter and dirt to fly.
But!
Still, the Jiao's main body was not seen; this was merely the opponent's water Dao.
"Za Yu!"
Ji Hao roared in anger, he was absolutely furious.
He had clearly sensed the location of the opponent's main body, but his wild blade work was forcefully weakened by the water flow.
As a result, he was unable to cleave open that area and force the opponent out.
Furthermore, the two water Jiao s were even more troublesome; even if they were cut apart, they would immediately reform.
Ji Hao's face was flushed with anger, and his Aura was climbing frantically.
Anger provided him with strength beyond his own.
Floods from all directions surged over the hills, and at the same time, surging underground water erupted, turning this area into a vast lake.
Roar!
Accompanied by a roar, an enormous Jiao, formed from endless water, condensed.
It was eight hundred meters tall.
Its body was massive, its might unparalleled.
Even people far from this place could see it clearly.
"Kui Jueyi Kill!"
Ji Hao was truly enraged, a blade descended from the sky, carrying the immense might to destroy heaven and earth.
The water Jiao was directly split open, and the terrifying blade wind forcefully cleaved the earth, but it was still not deep enough.
Splat...
Zhou You, still two hundred meters away, stepped into the muddy water, his body slightly turned.
Charging up, Super Serious Sword Drawing Technique!
A sword light tore through the earth, then submerged into it.
Boom!
At the end of the tear, the earth exploded, and a huge figure rushed out, letting out a mournful shriek.
This was a Jiao Dragon, its tail severed, blood raining down onto the earth.
Evidently, this Jiao Dragon felt unsafe underground.
As the Jiao Dragon rushed out, the vast water flow lost control and began to inundate the nearby area.
Zhou You quickly ran to higher ground; just as he reached a small hill, the flood rushed over.
Then, Zhou You took out his Demon Subduing Master's identity token, "Hello? Hello! Is anyone there?"
"What is it?"
A slightly aged voice sounded.
"I am Zhou You, currently in Hongshan Town."
Zhou You stated truthfully.
Immediately, another female voice spoke, "Have you confirmed what it is? We are on our way there."
Zhou You glanced at his feet, "It's a Jiao Dragon, white, with many scales on its body. It should be a Great Yao."
"Don't risk attacking."
The female voice quickly instructed.
Zhou You said, "I cut off its tail."
"Ah?"
"Ah?"
"Ah?"
Several astonished voices came from inside.
Zhou You continued, "I'm looking for you not mainly for this matter. I want to ask if you have any secret swimming techniques?"
"Secret swimming techniques?" The aged voice carried surprise.
Zhou You looked at his feet, "Yes, but I'm about to drown because I can't swim."
"..."
Everyone fell silent.
Zhou You said, "It's up to my thighs."
After a while, he described again, "It's up to my chest."
The aged voice slowly spoke, "You run first."
Zhou You shook his head, thinking the other party couldn't see him, and said, "Nowhere to run, it's all flooded."
The aged voice said, "Regarding secret techniques for water, there are indeed some, but it's too late to give them to you now. How about this, as long as you can survive, I will have someone prepare a copy for you and send it over then."
Zhou You was grateful, "You are so kind."
The female voice hesitated, "Are you alone right now? Can you guarantee your survival?"
Zhou You thought for a moment, "I think so."
The female voice said, "I can dog paddle, do you want to learn it first?"
Zhou You was surprised, "Dogs can swim?"
The female voice said, "Of co—"
Before she could finish, Zhou You retrieved his identity token into his storage ring.
Then, Zhou You's body shook, transforming into an Earth Dog.
At that moment, an instinctive feeling emerged, and his two front paws quickly paddled.
"Wow!"
Zhou You was pleasantly surprised, excited by this discovery.
Dogs really can swim!
He inexplicably gained another life-saving Move.
For a time, he had a lot of fun.
Above, Ji Hao battled the severed-tail Jiao Dragon, blade light and sword shadows, water Dao filling the sky.
The fight was a back-and-forth, evenly matched one.
"The difference between a Great Yao and an Eighth-Rank Yao Beast is actually this great?"
Ji Hao was secretly alarmed, his eyes flickering as he pondered countermeasures.
This was actually his first time fighting a Great Yao; a Great Yao's strength was at least ten times that of an Eighth-Rank Yao Beast!
Not only was its Yao power surging, but its own strength was incredibly formidable.
Even his top-grade spiritual blade found it difficult to kill it.
The Jiao Dragon opened its mouth and spat out a stream of foul-smelling saliva, which transformed into poisoned arrows, raining down like a storm.
With that momentum, even if one wasn't drowned by the saliva, they would be poisoned to death.
Ji Hao swung his blade, continuously slashing, bringing up a violent blade wind that swept away all the saliva.
The Jiao Dragon swooped down, its severed tail heavily striking Ji Hao, sending him flying.
Ji Hao glided through the air for hundreds of meters, his body burning with pain.
The Jiao Dragon's eyes were chilling as it rushed into the high sky, looking down at Ji Hao, "Za Yu? You dare call me a Za Yu?"
It was a Jiao that was transforming into a Dragon!
How could it tolerate such insults?
Ji Hao spat, "I've already called you names to your face, and you're still asking if I'm insulting you? Are you stupid, or just dumb!"
Anyway, his Aura could not lose.
He couldn't help but wonder, where was Zhou You?
His gaze swept over the vast water below, and he was instantly stunned.
In the flood, a black dog was swimming joyfully, as if it had found something fun to do.
He had seen this dog; he knew it was Zhou You.
This...
"Za Yu!"
Ji Hao roared down below, "Can you please focus on the matter at hand!"
The Jiao Dragon raised its head, once again spewing endless saliva.
