Dragony snorted, “Based on what? That’s my stuff, and I found it first so why should I have it over?”
When speaking, her teeth was clearly clattering due to the frost so it’s obvious her condition wasn’t well. Even so, there were no tears coming out of those eyes anymore, only the stubborn look of someone not willing to submit.
“Senior Yue said it’s his then it’s his little girl, you better be smart and hand it over. Afterwards you will come back with me to ask for his mercy. Perhaps then he will spare your life if you are good.”
From within Dragony’s big eyes flickered a glimmer of danger because she would rather die than be subjected to humiliation. Heck, if her body wasn’t reacting to the frost hindering her powers, she would’ve gone all in before to fight that Senior Yue instead of running at first.
But things don’t always go as planned or the way they want. Knowing this was her best chance while they’re preoccupied with speaking, Dragony attacks the youngest man nearby to take the initiative. One punch to the chest and a kick to the groin, next thing everyone knew were the howling cry of a man having his manhood destroyed.
This was the opening she wanted. Using the brief second of delay, she lunges for the mouth of the cave to run again, unfortunately, her plan was foolhardy in this case. Outside had been surrounded by people already and they’re ready with their weapons drawn.
“Girl, I like to see where you are running this time.” Speaking was Senior Yue who had drawn his blade at this point.
Clenching her fist, “Even if I don’t run, you still won’t get my stuff.”
Going sharp and dangerous in the face, the old timer grew enraged after recognizing the frost coming out of his target. “You ate the Ice Fruit?”
“What of it?” Dragony sneered with contempt at the shameless old fart, “The Ice Fruit is something I found first. If you had spoken to me kindly then I might’ve offered you it, but you didn’t. You mocked me and my mother so why should I give you it?”
Besides, it’s not like she wanted to eat it right away, rather the darn thing flew into her mouth without a second to react so this outcome wasn’t by choice either.
“Outrageous!” Senior Yue snaps back, “I am a disciple of the head alchemist inside the Celestial Palace, and this world belongs to the Celestial Palace. So what if you found it first? By right I have a claim over all that is here. You eating it without permission is an ill-mannered and shameless act in of itself!”
Dragony frustratingly clenches up her fist even more and causes a crunching sound to come off. Damn it, if this Ice Fruit isn’t stopping me from using my full powers then I wouldn’t be forced to be so passive. Now all those demons Mother sent to protect me is dead….
“Who are you calling shameless and ill-mannered you old fart?” Going red in the eye, she glares directly at the old man like she wants to hear it a second time.
Smirking with a mocking voice, Senior Yue happily obliges the request since he’s on top right now: “Didn’t your parents teach you something like selfless dedication? The Ice Fruit is a medicine I need in order to save my granddaughter. No matter, all I need to do now is rip out your beast core and that will do just fine in saving my granddaughter.”
