The flaming dragon opened its cavernous mouth as it attempted to swallow Su Qianyun whole.
However, in this dire situation, a white light flashed as a pair of powerful arms encircled Su Qianyun’s slim waist before carrying her away in another direction at extremely fearsome speed.
The flaming dragon missed her by millimeters, and Su Qianyun looked up with her dreamy blue eyes, upon which she was greeted by the sight of a familiar man. “Cl-classmate An Lin, you’re here…”
Su Wenjun heaved a heavy sigh of relief upon seeing this. If something were to happen to Su Qianyun, he would have to face the wrath of her father.
Dong Guo also faltered slightly during his retreat as he caught sight of Su Qianyun being saved by a mysterious man. How was it possible that his dream scenario was snatched away from him so easily?
At this moment, the flaming dragon twisted around again before flying toward Su Qianyun at an alarming speed.
Su Qianyun’s features paled even further from fright as she pressed her soft body tighter against An Lin’s body.
White light instantly enveloped the two of them, and they both disappeared just as the flaming dragon was about to be upon them.
Su Wenjun and Dong Guo’s pupils contracted in unison as they marveled at the superb spatial flickering ability they were witnessing!
The activation speed was almost instantaneous, and the resulting spatial fluctuations were almost undetectable; both of these factors indicated that the person who unleashed the spell technique was extremely well-versed and proficient in the art of spatial manipulation.
An Lin and Su Qianyun appeared over a kilometer away from where she had been.
Only now did Su Wenjun and the others discover that there was an exquisitely beautiful fairy sitting on An Lin’s shoulder.
“Phew… that was close. Thankfully we flew here at full speed as soon as we detected the phenomena in the distance. Otherwise, we might not have been able to get here on time. Speaking of which, Su Qianyun, you sure are popular; even the flaming dragon ignores everyone in pursuit of you…” An Lin chuckled with a teasing smile.
Su Qianyun was immediately a lot less nervous upon hearing An Lin’s words, and a faint blush appeared on her cheeks. “Thank you, Classmate An Lin. I would have died here if it wasn’t for you.”
“We’re all friends, there’s no need to thank me,” An Lin replied with a nonchalant smile.
Dong Guo could only look on from a distance with a thunderous expression. Could friends just embrace each other like that?
Release the princess at once!
However, he didn’t dare to say anything because his performance just then had been absolutely horrendous, and if he were to jump up and say something now, he would inevitably put himself in the firing line.
The flaming dragon was clearly unwilling to give up as it continued to charge toward Su Qianyun.
Tina activated her spatial flicker yet again to evacuate An Lin and Su Qianyun, thereby evading the flaming dragon’s attack.
However, some of the flaming dragons and phoenixes in pursuit of the other cultivators changed their directions to pursue Su Qianyun. These dragons and phoenixes had absorbed the life essence of several hundred cultivators.
Monstrous flames swept toward them in all directions, and the space around them began to crack as the entire sky was lit up by the blinding golden light of the flames.
This was an attack that was sufficient to kill even Return to Void Stage mighty figures!
However, Tina remained calm amid the carnage. She had mastered many of the divine-tier spell techniques that she had invented, so attacks like this posed no threat to her.
“Dream Illusion Transformation!” Tina called out in a crisp voice as she extended both of her little hands, upon which all three of them began to shimmer and warp before their bodies began to dematerialize.
Rumble…
The flames swept through the sky and engulfed everything within a radius of several kilometers.
Dong Guo stared at the horrifying explosion of flames, and his legs began to tremble.
The handsome man who had just contacted the imperial palace for reinforcements let loose a cry of shock and horror.
However, An Lin and Su Qianyun appeared completely unscathed several kilometers away in the blink of an eye.
“Phew… that was hot…” An Lin heaved a long sigh before looking down at the woman in his arms. “Are you feeling hot?”
Su Qianyun shook her head before nodding lightly, and her snowy-white features were tinged with a hint of red.
The handsome man in the distance immediately raised his thumbs in praise. “As expected of my brother-in-law!”
It was not that he didn’t want to swoop in and save Su Qianyun, it was just that he would only drag her down even if he had tried.
At a time like this, An Lin fell from the sky and saved his sister like a heroic knight. The shock and elation he experienced from witnessing such a thrilling sequence of events urged him to throw his poise as a prince completely out the window.
He approved of this marriage!
Dong Guo’s eyes widened upon hearing this, as if he had been struck by a bolt of divine lightning, leaving him shocked and dumbstruck.
What was that? Su Xin’s brother-in-law?!
Wasn’t Su Xin Su Qianyun’s brother? Could it be…
Dong Guo’s heart plunged into a freezing glacier. He had been single for over three thousand years, and he thought that he had finally found his true love… Why? How could it be like this…
Wait!
He suddenly came to a realization.
He was quite a high-ranking official in the Green Wood Imperial Family, so he would have definitely heard something if Su Qianyun had a dao partner. Hence, Su Xin had to have been lying!
Just as Dong Guo’s thoughts surged from one extreme to another, the flaming dragons and phoenixes continued in their pursuits of Su Qianyun. However, in the face of Tina’s advanced spatial manipulation techniques, they were simply being clowned around and did not even come close to reaching their target.
“That’s extremely impressive! Just who is that fairy?” Su Wenjun stared at Tina in shock.
Tina’s cultivation base was probably inferior to his, but the spell techniques that she had unleashed, as well as the true intent and dao intent imbued within, were far superior to anything that he was capable of, to the extent that he couldn’t even figure her spell techniques out!
Not just Su Wenjun, but all the other top-rated cultivators from the other powers within the Purple Star State had also turned toward An Lin and the others with shock etched on their faces. A portion of the assailants that had been attacking them had been drawn away by Su Qianyun, thereby allowing them some breathing room.
Although Su Qianyun was facing a series of monstrous attacks, Tina was still able to keep her safe with ease.
Even though the flames did not possess sentience and were a little clumsy, they were flames imbued with the power of the divine dao! Even a Return to Void Stage mighty figure would be severely wounded upon contact with flames like these! But that fairy was able to easily avoid the sea of flames created by the flaming dragons and phoenixes…
This really was extremely impressive!
Everyone only had one question in their hearts at this moment; just who was this fairy mighty figure? Which power did she pledge her allegiance to?
“Roar…”
After chasing Su Qianyun around for a long time to no avail, a flaming dragon suddenly let loose a frustrated roar and looked at Su Qianyun one last time before flying back toward the egg. All the other flaming dragons and phoenixes also retreated back to the egg.
All the surrounding cultivators were dumbstruck by this.
Holy f*ck! These flame creatures chased Su Qianyun around in circles like this but were forced to give up in the end?
Profound respects welled up in the hearts of many cultivators upon seeing this.
Aside from the flame creatures pursuing Su Qianyun, all the other divine dao flame creatures pursuing the other cultivators also began to fly back toward the golden egg.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this.
Following that disastrous epidemic, the Realm of the Fallen Phoenix had been reduced to ruins. Not only were there countless massive holes in the ground, but there were also a series of inky-black spatial rifts torn open in the air, from which chaotic destructive power emanated, plunging the entire area into destruction and disarray.
More than half of the cultivators who had originally gathered here had been killed, and before they even had a chance to catch their breath, something suddenly happened.
All the divine dao flames converged toward the egg in a surging vortex before fusing with the egg itself.
Before long, all the flames had completely disappeared!
All the cultivators who had survived the attacks earlier turned their eyes to the golden egg in unison with expressions of intense focus!
