"If this goes on …"
Seeing the black dragon rolling up a huge wave and flying towards Zhuo Xiangzhu who was shielding her behind, Earth God Loli had an anxious look in her eyes.
An ominous feeling seemed to have condensed into solid black mud in her chest. She seemed to have seen everything that would happen in the end.
Everything that would cause her extreme pain and regret for the rest of her life —
The battle between the Dragon King and the Earth Goddess was particularly intense … Because this was a battle that they were upholding their beliefs.
In the end, Zhuo Xiangzhu, who was at a disadvantage, would use the last of her strength to condense a long sword with her heart's blood. She wanted to stab the Lishui Dragon King and force him to retreat.
However, the Lishui Dragon King, who was originally cowardly and afraid of death, would not only not dodge, but would also use his own chest to welcome the sword.
The long sword made of divine blood pierced the Dragon King's heart. Bright red dragon blood with a hint of gold splashed out, even splashing onto the girl's face.
At this moment, the Dragon King turned back into his human form. However, his Soul Aperture was pierced, and his vitality was cut off. He did not even have the strength to stand, and could only collapse into the arms of the Earth Goddess.
The rain finally stopped.
It was as if someone had pierced a small hole in the thick, gloomy clouds that filled the sky. The only ray of sunlight shone through the hole onto the two of them. Even Zhuo Yunyi, who was close by, was still shrouded in shadows.
It was as if even the heavens were mourning the death of the Lishui Dragon King.
"Ah —" Even though it was already difficult for him to open his eyes, the Lishui Dragon King still tried to speak in his usual frivolous tone, "As expected, I can't really do anything to you in the end …"
"Ao Li, you …" Zhuo Xiangzhu's expression was somewhat complicated. It was a mixture of guilt, sadness, and pain, but there was also a trace of relief.
"Really … Cough, I've been chasing you for a thousand years … Can't you be a little gentler?"
The blood that the Dragon King coughed out spilled onto the girl's white dress. It was a ghastly sight.
"I'm sorry."
"As expected, only an apology? I remember more than a hundred years ago, when I proposed marriage to you, you also rejected me like this. "
"…"
Zhuo Xiangzhu was silent. He just hugged Ao Li quietly.
"After I die, the flood won't disappear immediately. Instead, it will become even more ferocious for a short period of time due to the lack of restrictions … Cough, but it's fine. I've already thought of a solution for you."
Ao Li, who didn't expect to get an answer from the girl, said softly, "After I die, I will return to my dragon body. If you chop off my head and block the eye of the Li River, you can stop the water from rising. If you peel off my skin and make it into a banner and stick it on the bank of the Li River, you can change the direction of the wind and let the water flow gradually stop. If you throw my dragon pearl into the Li River, you can suppress the water tribes and the great river won't riot because it lost its master …"
At this point, Ao Li coughed even more violently. More dragon blood spilled onto the girl's body because of his actions, causing the girl's long dress to turn bright red with a hint of gold.
"Ao Li, you …" Zhuo Xiangzhu lowered his head and murmured softly, "Why are you so stupid? I'm not worth it …"
"Whether it's worth it or not depends on me." Even with the vitality of the dragon race, Ao Li seemed to be unable to hold on after suffering such a heavy injury. He closed his eyes and softly spoke as if he was talking to himself, "Don't worry, the dragon blood can protect you to the greatest extent … Even if I go against the laws of heaven, my dragon blood can at least ensure that you don't die …"
After a few breaths of silence, he slowly raised his head. Even though his eyes were closed, he could vaguely see the girl from a thousand years ago who had extended her hand to him so that he could enjoy the banquet together.
Thus, he also used all his strength and raised his hand.
"Ah ah … If I can do it again, I definitely … will …"
In the next moment, the dragon king's aura disappeared and his raised hand fell limply to the ground.
The Master of the Li River disappeared from the world just like that.
Zhuo Xiangzhu raised her head and looked at the sky as tears streaked across her face.
☆
She definitely didn't want to end up like that.
Zhuo Yunyi's body trembled as she wanted to do something to change everything.
However, she also understood that no matter what she did, it would be useless.
Because she was simply too weak.
If she pushed the young mistress away or rushed in between the two, she would not be able to block the Lishui Dragon King's attack or be accidentally killed by the young mistress' blood sword. No matter how she lied to herself, 'I'm fine with anything, as long as the young mistress can live happily', it was useless. That was why she kept repeating …
Huh?
Over and over again … What?
The piercing pain in her head made the girl subconsciously ignore this matter and try to focus on the current situation.
How can I stop this tragedy from happening?
How can I cut off this cycle of remorse?
"Don't be afraid." At this time, a warm hand gently patted her head.
The girl subconsciously looked over and saw the guy who had been living in the Earth God's Temple and eating and drinking for free patting her head. His dead fish eyes, which were always half open, now revealed a gentle color, "I'm here."
"Or rather, we came here for this."
After comforting the Earth God Loli, Xu Shenxing turned his gaze back to the two people who were in the midst of a fierce battle.
Of course, he could see that the two of them were holding back some negative emotions, so it was fine to let them fight a little to vent their anger.
As long as at the most crucial moment …
"Ah!"
When the Earth God Loli saw Zhuo Xiangzhu condense the Sword of Heart's Blood, and saw that the sad scene in her dream was about to play out, she couldn't help but anxiously cry out.
But in the next moment, Xu Shenxing appeared between the two of them. His left hand used two fingers to directly break Zhuo Xiangzhu's Sword of Heart's Blood, while his right hand used a chop to slap the Lishui Dragon King into the ground.
"It doesn't matter if you have fun fighting, but it won't be good if you really get angry."
After patting the non-existent dust off his hands, Xu Shenxing smiled slightly and said to the two people (or rather, the two gods).
Zhuo Xiangzhu, who was stunned for a moment when he saw his sword being broken by a bare hand, frowned and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Xu, now is not the time to talk peacefully … The water level of Li Shui is still rising, even if Ao Li doesn't make any big waves, the water will soon overflow the dam and drown Jiang Jin!"
"Then as long as the water level doesn't rise, we can talk peacefully, right?" Xu Shenxing had a look of understanding as he snapped his fingers and said, "Mo Li!"
So the little girl immediately lay on the shore and began to drink water.
"Hey hey, what are you doing?!" Xiao Zhengyi on the side said somewhat speechlessly.
"Lowering the water level, speak." Mo Li took the time to raise his head and answer.
"How can it be lowered like this … What the f * ck?! The water level really dropped?! "
The police officer was shocked by Mo Li's stomach capacity.
"Then, can we talk a little bit now?"
Xu Shenxing didn't show any signs of surprise. He just continued to talk to the silent Zhuo Xiangzhu and Ao Li, who had already pulled his head out of the ground.
