After being jilted by the saintess at the beginning, why is she crying?

He stood still and stopped running.

Just now outside, he was worried that he would be entangled by this woman, attracting more pursuers and becoming the target of everyone's attacks.

But now, this beast-taming garden is a closed space, with only a few of them inside.

With no outsiders to disturb him, what did he have to fear?

He still has many cards to play!

Lin Fengmian released Xiao Xiyue's hand, stepped forward, and stood in front of her.

"Senior sister, please step back."

Looking at his broad back, Xiao Xiyue bit her lip and silently took a few steps back.

She didn't say much, but she was already secretly gathering spiritual power in her hands, ready to help at any time.

When the young woman saw that Lin Fengmian had stopped running away and instead came to greet her, she was first taken aback, and then she sneered.

"What? You're not running anymore? You've come to your senses?"

She licked her lips, a lewd glint in her eyes:

"Obey me obediently, and I will treat you well—"

He hadn't finished speaking.

"roar--!"

A deafening roar suddenly erupted from the spiritual pool!

The sound was enormous, and the sound waves swept out like a tangible force, causing the entire space to tremble!

Lin Fengmian and the young woman's expressions changed simultaneously, and they both looked towards the spirit pool.

The once calm surface of the spirit pool was now boiling over, churning wildly!

Water splashed everywhere, and inspiration struck!

next moment--

A huge head suddenly emerged from the pool!

The head was the size of a millstone, covered in jet-black scales that gleamed with a cold metallic luster under the light of the spirit pearl.

A pair of huge, vertical pupils, cold and ruthless, radiating a chillingly fierce light.

On its head, two short horns protrude slightly, like the horns of a newly born dragon.

Its gaping maw opened wide, revealing a mouthful of sharp, white teeth that gleamed coldly.

"This is……"

Lin Fengmian's pupils suddenly contracted!

Ink Dragon!

Second-tier demonic beast—Ink Dragon!

Moreover, this black dragon was a whole size larger than the one he had killed in the secret realm!

Its scales were thicker and its aura more ferocious!

That's definitely mid-stage Tier 2 strength!

The moment the young woman saw the black dragon, the lewd smile on her face froze, replaced by endless fear!

"Ink, Ink Dragon..."

Her voice was trembling, and her legs were going weak.

Although she had taken the Blood Soul Pill and her cultivation had surged to the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment, she was still filled with fear when facing this second-tier demonic beast known for its ferocity.

Moreover, the Ink Dragon is a type of demonic beast with an extremely strong sense of territory!

Anyone who sets foot in its territory will be considered an intruder and will be fought to the death!

really--

The black dragon's cold, vertical pupils swept across everyone present, finally locking onto the young woman closest to the spirit pool.

A low growl came from his throat, and the scales all over his body opened slightly, unleashing an extremely fierce aura!

"No, it's not my fault..."

The young woman turned pale and backed away repeatedly.

But the black dragon didn't give her a chance to explain!

"roar--!"

With another roar, the massive body of the black dragon suddenly leaped out of the pool!

Its body was seven or eight zhang long and as thick as a water bucket. It was completely black, and its four sharp claws pushed off the ground as it pounced on the young woman!

Its gaping maw opened, and a stench swept over us!

The young woman was terrified and no longer cared about Lin Fengmian.

She frantically channeled her spiritual power, retreating rapidly and narrowly avoiding the black dragon's attack!

"boom--!"

The black dragon's massive jaws missed their target, slamming into the wall with tremendous force, sending shards of rock flying and shaking the entire space!

The young woman took the opportunity to create distance, her face as pale as paper.

She glanced at Lin Fengmian, then at the raging black dragon, and finally couldn't help but shout:

"Fellow Daoist! Please join me in dealing with this beast!"

Her voice was tinged with panic, and she spoke very quickly:

"If you can help me escape this predicament, I promise I won't bother you anymore! Not only that, I'll also give you spirit stones as compensation! Just name your price!"

Lin Fengmian stood to the side, arms crossed, a slight smile playing on his lips.

He watched the young woman desperately dodging the black dragon's attacks, but his heart remained unmoved.

Just now outside, this woman was chasing him like a mad dog, calling him "little beast" over and over again, and even wanted to take him in as a furnace cauldron.

Now that there's danger, you're only thinking of him?

Still calling me a "fellow Daoist"?

"Compensation"?

Oh.

Lin Fengmian shook his head.

He has never been a pushover.

The idea of ​​repaying evil with kindness is not something he believes in.

He moved to the side, finding a safer spot, and continued to watch the game with his arms crossed.

Seeing this, the young woman's face turned even uglier, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes, yet she was helpless.

"roar--!"

The black dragon pounced again, and she could only grit her teeth and continue to dodge, looking utterly disheveled.

Lin Fengmian watched for a while, then turned to look at Xiao Xiyue beside him and said softly:

"Senior sister, let's hurry up and go."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xiyue glanced at him, then at the young woman being chased around by the black dragon, and silently nodded.

Although she is kind-hearted, she is not someone who cannot distinguish between good and bad.

This woman had chased them so fiercely just now, and now that she's in trouble, she wouldn't be foolish enough to pity her.

The two were about to leave—

"ah--!"

A scream came from behind.

Lin Fengmian turned around and saw that the young woman had been fiercely struck by the black dragon's tail, and she had crashed into the wall like a cannonball, spitting out blood.

Her protective aura shattered completely, and most of her palace attire was torn apart, revealing large, bloody wounds.

She struggled to get up, but the black dragon had already pounced on her.

Its gaping maw opened wide and bit down on half of her body.

"No--!"

The screams abruptly stopped.

Blood splattered everywhere.

The black dragon tilted its head back, swallowed the half-corpse, and a satisfied, ferocious glint flashed in its eyes.

Then-

Its gaze slowly turned to Lin Fengmian and Xiao Xiyue.

A bloodthirsty light gleamed in those cold, vertical pupils.

Lin Fengmian frowned.

He was about to leave when this beast...

and many more.

Lin Fengmian suddenly thought of something, and his expression changed slightly.

The young woman consumed the Blood Soul Pill, and her body was filled with violent spiritual power.

The effects of the Blood Soul Pill were still present, and her flesh and blood contained a large amount of spiritual essence.

The black dragon devoured her flesh and blood, and the spiritual essence entered its body—

Instead of calming it down, it amplified the residual effects of the Blood Soul Pill!

At this moment, Mo Jiao's eyes had begun to turn red, and the aura around him had become even more violent!

It wasn't chasing Lin Fengmian.

Stimulated by the effects of the Blood Soul Pill, it entered an even more frenzied killing state!

"Walk!"

Lin Fengmian gave a low shout, grabbed Xiao Xiyue, and turned to run.

But the speed of that black dragon was even faster than he had imagined!

"roar--!"

With a roar, the massive body of the black dragon pounced towards the two of them like a black lightning bolt!
