Chapter 18 — The Redfire Dragon (1/2)

“All things are bound by certain sets of rules, and the consequences of breaking them are unthinkable. Brat, you were able to swallow the Dragonfire Pearl and the hearthfire without evoking any serious repercussions. That means you are quite fortuitous, but your body… Your body has fallen, yet you are still alive. This violates the natural laws. If you manage to escape this place, remember, first and foremost, you must find a way to resurrect your body. Otherwise, even I would not be able to predict the severity of your consequences.”

Those words turned the corners of Yun Wu’s lips down. However, before she could brood on it further, the Redfire Dragon came charging at her again, its angry roars bouncing off the four walls of the underground palace. “Human….”

Yun Wu’s expression immediately turned solemn as she watched the dragon draw near. Her eyes flashed when she sprung into the air, and her body abruptly twisted to execute a rapid flip, which successfully landed her on the unsuspecting dragon’s neck.

A beam of aggressive reddish-violet light shot from her dantian and enveloped her fist. She delivered a violent blow to the dragon’s head.

A pained roar.

The maddened beast slammed its colossal body onto the ground and began to roll around wildly, trying to throw Yun Wu off its neck. “Abominable human, this prince will tear you into a thousand pieces!”

Yun Wu narrowed her cold eyes and grasped one of the dragon’s horns tightly in one hand while pummeling his head with the other. She thundered, “I’m abominable? You’re the one who’s abominable! I genuinely wanted to have a conversation and resolve this peacefully, but you were unwilling and left me with no choice but to use force. You’d better cooperate, or else… I’ll smash your family jewels.”

In her past life, she remembered watching a drama about a deity named Nezha, who stormed into the Dragon King’s Palace and forcibly shattered the Third Dragon Prince’s family jewels. Right now, she fully intended on reenacting the scene.

Strangely enough, the thought of it excited her.

The Redfire Dragon turned out to be a fairly ruthless character. Since it couldn’t throw her off by rolling, it rose and opted for slamming itself against the wall, determined to mash her into meat paste. This kind of brutality was actually quite to her liking.

She activated the defensive ability that came with breaking through to the level of a Rank Two Practitioner and stubbornly held fast to the horn. Her blows rained down on the dragon’s head, each strike stronger than the last.

Between the two of us, I’d like to see who’s more ruthless!

Bang! Bang! Bang! The underground palace trembled with the enormous Redfire Dragon’s assault on the wall, the impact ferocious enough to shake mountains while the dragon roared unceasingly.

The underground palace had become the arena for the human and dragon’s deathmatch. One by one, the man-eating vines and giant python quickly slid away, for fear of getting caught in a misfortunate tragedy.
