Legend of the Dragon King: I really didn't mean to provoke them!

In the open space in front of them, thick trees were leaning and falling, and a bear-like spirit beast, as big as a small house, was slamming the ground.

Its entire body was covered in translucent silver-white crystal armor, with sharp edges and corners that reflected the dim light of the forest. Its limbs were as thick as pillars, and each stomp of its foot would cause spiderweb-like cracks to spread across the ground.

The most terrifying thing is its enormous head.

His eyes, like solidified crystals, were fixed on the approaching Gu Yue, while he continuously exhaled turbid breaths mixed with crystal powder.

Xie Xie's eyes popped out of their sockets. "Holy crap, a thousand-year-old crystal bear!"

Why did you provoke him in the first place?!

He shouted as he frantically summoned the Light Dragon Blade and the Shadow Dragon Blade.

In a flash, a silver light appeared beside Xie Xie, and Gu Yue, her face slightly pale, appeared next to him. "Who provoked it? It started chasing me as soon as I came in!"

"Enough talk, let's run!"

Before Xie Xie could finish speaking, the Millennium Crystal Bear suddenly raised its head.

With a deafening roar, the enormous crystal claw slammed down on the two of them with a whooshing sound!

With quick reflexes, Xie Xie immediately tackled Gu Yue, rolling to the side with her, barely managing to avoid the attack.

"Shadowling, cover us!"

Xie Xie gave a low shout, and Shadow Cub transformed into a black shadow that wrapped around the Crystal Bear's ankle.

The dark blades of wind slashed wildly at its crystal armor. Although they could not cause fatal damage, the strange, annihilating power made the crystal bear feel inexplicably irritated and stinging.

The Light Dragon Blade flew out of his hand.

The next moment, Xie Xie teleported ten meters away with Gu Yue in his arms.

Xie Xie hoisted Gu Yue onto his shoulder and then sprinted at full speed towards the dense forest to the east, which was the direction where Tang Wulin was.

The Millennium Crystal Bear behind it was in pain.

It frantically flailed its limbs, trying to shake off the dark shadow at its feet, while roaring angrily in pursuit.

However, just as Xie Xie had carried Gu Yue a hundred meters ahead, a heavy roar suddenly came from ahead, and a dark shadow blocked the only way to Tang Wulin.

Xie Xie glanced back, and his heart sank to the bottom.

"No way? There's more?!"

A long, slender dragon-shaped soul beast covered in dark green scales was perched at the crossroads.

It had only one short but extremely sharp horn on its head, and it stared at them fiercely. It was a hundred-year-old unicorn dragon!

And, as fate would have it, they just happened to block their path.

Upon seeing this, Gu Yue's brows furrowed tightly.

Under normal circumstances, let alone a hundred-year-old unicorn dragon, even if two more came, Gu Yue and Xie Xie could take them down together.

However, the current situation is clearly not suitable for engaging in a fight with this century-old unicorn dragon.

Xie Xie quickly calmed down at this moment, his gaze rapidly shifting between the millennium crystal bear and the hundred-year-old unicorn dragon.

"Gu Yue, don't fight them head-on!" Xie Xie's voice was urgent and decisive. "They're enemies now. Let's lure the Unicorn Dragon towards the Crystal Bear and use their conflict to buy time!"

Gu Yue instantly understood Xie Xie's intention, "Okay, I'll do as you say!"

Xie Xie's eyes suddenly flashed with cold light, and the Light Dragon Blade and Shadow Dragon Blade in his hands shone brightly at the same time.

Golden light and shadow intertwined, transforming into an incomparably sharp golden-black blade of light, carrying a fierce and destructive wind, and slashing straight towards the century-old unicorn dragon.

"The Blade of Annihilation!"

As the low shout fell, the blade grazed the unicorn's eyelid with perfect precision.

In an instant, the blade's edge slashed a deep, bone-revealing gash, and crimson blood seeped out instantly, a stinging pain instantly engulfing the unicorn dragon's entire body.

The unicorn dragon, gripped by pain, instantly flew into a rage, its crimson eyes fixed on Xie Xie.

Completely ignoring the millennium-old crystal bear searching for prey nearby, it was thoroughly enraged by this blatant provocation.

With a deafening roar, it slammed its limbs into the ground and pounced on Xie Xie like a madman, its sharp horn pointing straight at Xie Xie's heart, determined to pierce him.

"Now!"

A sharp glint of triumph flashed in Xie Xie's eyes. He immediately let out a low shout, instantly reaching a tacit understanding with Gu Yue beside him.

Instead of running straight ahead, the two deliberately changed direction, running in circles with staggered steps, leading the enraged hundred-year-old unicorn dragon toward the thousand-year-old crystal bear that was roaring restlessly and searching for prey in the open space.

In the blink of an eye, the Unicorn Dragon followed Xie Xie's figure and rushed into the range of the Millennium Crystal Bear.

The already enraged Thousand-Year Crystal Bear suddenly saw a strange soul beast charging towards it, daring to snatch its prey.

Its already murky and ferocious crystal eyes instantly turned crimson, and it completely lost its reason.

It suddenly raised its massive claws, covered in hard crystalline armor, and with a sharp whistling sound, slammed them down at the unicorn dragon, the crystalline edges of its claws gleaming with a cold light.

Although the unicorn dragon is only a hundred-year-old soul beast, it is extremely ferocious and has low intelligence, only knowing how to charge and fight recklessly.

Relying on its thick hide, it didn't take the enormous creature in front of it seriously at all.

When the hundred-year-old unicorn saw the thousand-year-old ice crystal bear, it not only did not dodge, but instead exerted its strength in all four limbs and charged forward with a swift and fierce attack, its single horn thrusting straight towards the crystal bear's chest and abdomen, as if it were determined to fight to the death.

Any hundred-year-old soul beast with even a modicum of intelligence would have turned and fled in terror at the sight of a thousand-year-old crystal bear.

But this unicorn dragon, fearless of death, ran right into the line of fire.

Taking advantage of the thousand-year gap in the battle between the two soul beasts, Xie Xie and Gu Yue reunited.

Xie Xie hoisted Gu Yue onto his shoulder again, increased his speed to the maximum, and sped past the edge of the chaotic battlefield.

The wind whistled in my ears, and tree branches flashed past me.

Xie Xie ran headlong, his only thought being to get to Tang Wulin's side as quickly as possible.

Gu Yue was being carried on his shoulder, and the jolting was making her uncomfortable. She felt a tightness in her chest and opened her mouth as if to tell him to stop.

"Thank you... Ugh! Change, change it..."

But as soon as she opened her mouth, a biting wind rushed in, choking her and making her gag repeatedly.

"What did you say?!"

Xie Xie could only hear the whistling wind, and he could vaguely hear Gu Yue's voice intermittently, but he couldn't make out what she was saying at all.

"I said, ugh! Try a different cough!"

"What? Too slow??"

"I said! Change your position to vomit!"

"Holy crap, the Crystal Bear is catching up?!"

Since he couldn't hear what Gu Yue was saying, Xie Xie simply read the message and replied randomly, speeding up his reply once again.

Gu Yue: "..."

boom!

Another fireball exploded on Xie Xie's forehead.

Xie Xie's steps suddenly faltered, and he was instantly transformed into Zhuge Liang "Kongming" by the explosion, with the buzzing sound of the fireball still lingering in his ears.

Turning his head to look at Gu Yue's kind smile, Xie Xie silently changed his princess carry position.

Gu Yue felt a blur before her eyes, and then she fell into his arms.

Immediately, Gu Yue grabbed Xie Xie's ear and said irritably, "You bastard, don't you understand what I mean?!"

"Sister! It hurts! It hurts!"

"I'm sorry, please twist it gently!"

Chapter 60: The battle is paused; let's finish arguing first.

After running at full speed for about three minutes, Xie Xie finally saw the figure he had been dreaming of.

From a great distance, Xie Xie shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Tang, Wu, Lin!"

"Protect me! Quickly save my dog's life!!"

Tang Wulin was very familiar with Xie Xie's voice.

Upon hearing Xie Xie's words, he did not hesitate at all. He focused his energy in his dantian, exerted force with both arms, and forcefully lifted the century-old unicorn dragon that had just died in front of him.

However, upon seeing this scene, Xie Xie, holding Gu Yue, suddenly slammed on the brakes.

Tang Wulin had no idea how terrifying he was in Xie Xie's eyes at that moment.

In Xie Xie's eyes:

Tang Wulin's eyes were bloodshot like a wild beast's, and golden scales shimmered on his left arm. Due to the light, he was shrouded in shadow, with only his pinpoint pupils radiating a bloodthirsty light.

Xie Xie swallowed hard, his body trembling as if he had Parkinson's disease.

Even Gu Yue fell silent upon witnessing this scene.

After a long while, Gu Yue raised her small face slightly, her eyes full of seriousness, "Xie Xie, let's go back and fight the Thousand-Year Crystal Bear one-on-one. I think we have a better chance of winning that way."

Xie Xie was screaming in his heart at this moment:

How come the protagonists of the Douluo series are all so powerful that they're even more villainous than the villains themselves?!

And stop fucking laughing!

That smile was chilling!

In the brief moment of their stunned silence, a huge black shadow crashed down upon them.

"Get out of the way!" Tang Wulin shouted.

Xie Xie suddenly came to his senses, tightened his grip on Gu Yue, and then rushed toward Tang Wulin's location. Due to excessive physical exertion, he was already staggering.

Upon finally seeing Tang Wulin, his tense nerves instantly relaxed. Coupled with the previous fierce battles and full-speed sprint, his physical strength was already exhausted.

Suddenly, his legs gave way.

Whether it was stepping on a protruding tree root or a smooth pebble, I suddenly staggered and completely lost my balance.

"Holy crap—!"

Xie Xie only had time to let out a short gasp.

Immediately afterwards, he loosened his grip on Gu Yue's arm, and his whole body rolled around on the ground several times like an out-of-control ball, kicking up dust.

Finally, with a "thud," he fell face-first into the mud.

Gu Yue was thrown into the air by his sudden throw, and spun around lightly, her black hair drawing an arc in the air.

Xie Xie buried his face in the mud and didn't recover for a long time.

Having finally caught his breath, Xie Xie trembled as he reached out, trying to prop himself up—

boom!

Gu Yue, who had just circled in the sky, unfortunately fell right onto his back.

Gu Yue's sudden, large slump almost made Xie Xie spit out a mouthful of blood, causing him to fall back into the mud.

In contrast, Gu Yue calmly patted the dust off her hands.

Xie Xie: Uneven breathing, physical exhaustion, multiple tears in his clothes, abrasions on his cheeks and arms, etc.

Gu Yue: The hem of my clothes is slightly dirty~

Tang Wulin had no time to care about Xie Xie and Gu Yue at this moment. He looked at the behemoth in front of him, which was like a bulldozer crushing everything in its path, and couldn't help but swallow.

Just now, the Millennium Crystal Bear simply stretched out its huge paw and slapped the oncoming unicorn carcass.

The unicorn's corpse began to crystallize inch by inch from the point of contact the moment it touched the bear's paw, and was then smashed to pieces by the powerful force of the Ice Crystal Bear, turning into countless crystal fragments scattered on the ground.

Tang Wulin was also a little scared at this, "Xie Xie, Gu Yue, how did you two provoke it?"

Xie Xie had just gotten up from the ground, panting heavily, and said, "Who the hell provoked it? I'm not an idiot, it was that bitch Gu Yue who provoked it!"
