115: Severing Ties

The broken, battered corpse of the green-scaled dragon fell heavily into the sea, instantly dyeing a large area crimson.

The breathing of the countless Human Race Cultivators watching became heavy and rapid.

Having the opportunity to witness the fall of a Pure-blooded Dragon Clan Member with one's own eyes is extremely rare across the Myriad Worlds.

And their attention quickly fell upon the slender figure that had suddenly appeared.

The young girl had a breathtakingly beautiful face and cold vertical pupils. The downpour soaked her hair, and only that pair of small pink dragon horns stood tall. The terrifying pressure radiating from her delicate body caused even the space to tremble.

Such distinct racial characteristics.

Another Pure-blooded Dragon Clan Member!

Some Cultivators who sensed the atmosphere was wrong chose to quietly retreat, fearing that this catastrophe stirred up by the Su Family Young Miss would drag them in as well.

"Give This Princess a reason!"

Little Dragon Girl clenched her delicate fists, her gaze fixed tightly on Su Quan's blood-stained face. Veins bulged on her forehead, and her tone was low, suppressing her rage.

"Ding, by the Host personally killing the heavenly mandate male protagonist, rewarded with one Epic-grade Gift Box!"

The System's notification sounded in his ear.

Su Quan licked his lips, first storing the gift box into his Spatial Ring.

It wasn't that he hadn't thought about setting a trap to make Little Dragon Girl kill Long Rui herself, but the situation at hand was urgent, and he could be snatched back to the Immortal Realm by Cao Ying at any moment, so he had to act hastily.

With this thought in mind, he looked at Little Dragon Girl, his lips moving: "Sister..."

"Don't call me sister!"

Little Dragon Girl's beautiful eyes emitted a fierce, baleful aura. Her pretty face was full of pain as she let out a hysterical roar: "Why? Why? I told you to stop, why did you still kill him?"

On one side was her sworn sister of many years, and on the other was the infatuated male dragon who had given himself to her and with whom she had practically promised her life.

She was truly in pain, and very confused.

If Su Quan had been able to stop in time just now and spare Long Rui's life, she would have been willing to mediate and try her best to resolve the grievances between them out of consideration for their years of sisterly friendship.

But now... everything was already too late!

This matter not only involved her private relationship with Long Rui but also concerned the dignity of the Dragon Clan in the Mountain Sea Realm.

"Sorry!"

Su Quan sighed, a touch of guilt naturally appearing in the corner of his eyes, but his tone was very cold and hard: "I have nothing to say to explain killing Long Rui, nor do I need to explain. I have a clear conscience, and I have done right by the Human Race of the world, but I am somewhat ashamed towards you!"

He was the villainous male supporting character, and Long Rui was the heavenly mandate male protagonist; the two were destined to be mortal enemies from the very beginning.

"What a 'nothing to say to explain'!" Little Dragon Girl laughed in anger, her Spiritual Qi erupting without reservation, condensing into a world-destroying hurricane. In terms of sheer power, it was significantly stronger than Long Rui's.

She threw a fierce punch, heading straight for Su Quan's face.

In the face of that earth-shattering force, space shattered layer by layer like a mirror.

"Then This Princess killing you today also needs no explanation!"

Su Quan's expression was cold and stern. Instead of retreating, he advanced, stepping on the wind fire wheels to meet her.

The gun shaft collided heavily with her delicate fist.

It stirred up a surging Qi gale that spanned ten thousand miles.

"Die!"

Little Dragon Girl let out a long howl. This was pure, primal hand-to-hand combat, punch after punch, to vent the anger in her heart.

It was just like when the two of them first met.

Su Quan tacitly withdrew his spear, pushing his Blood Spirit Bone to the limit. His originally slightly slender body expanded, and his bulging muscles were filled with the monstrous strength of an ancient Vicious Beast.

Boom, boom, boom—

The collision of fists exploded like muffled thunder.

It tore apart the dark clouds covering the sky, the downpour ceased, and sunlight shone through the sky full of water vapor onto the two figures entangled in battle, like two invincible gods fighting against the heavens and the earth.

This battle attracted the attention of countless powerful beings of the current age.

On one side was a super Heavenly Prodigy of the Pure-blooded Dragon Clan, rarely seen in ten thousand years, and on the other was a Human Race Genius who had shown signs of Immortal Ascension just after turning eighteen.

The strength of the two almost touched the ceiling of the Lower Realm Cultivators.

Ten thousand miles deep under the sea.

A black-scaled dragon with a body coiled for tens of thousands of meters raised its ferocious head. Its deep gaze pierced through the Void Realm, watching the two fighting on the sea surface.

"Lord Dragon King, this subordinate is willing to take action and capture the traitor who killed the Third Prince!" A Mahayana Realm shrimp demon clad in armor stepped forward, volunteering for the task.

"No need, leaving this matter to the Seventh Princess is enough!" The Dragon King exhaled, annihilating the sand and gravel it touched into nothingness.

"In this subordinate's opinion, the Seventh Princess might not be a match for that Human Race young girl!" The shrimp demon said again.

"Indeed, that Human Race young girl has a deep foundation, unique bone structure, and powerful Daoist Divine Abilities, like an indestructible furnace. Such a heaven-defying talent is rare in the world!"

The Dragon King did not stint on praise: "Such an excellent opponent is hard to come by!"

"Your meaning is..."

The shrimp demon had a guess in his heart.

The Dragon King exhaled, condensing a vortex of turbulence tens of thousands of miles wide on the seabed: "Little Seven has had extraordinary talent since childhood and has never met an opponent among her peers. However, without experiencing tempering, how can she cultivate an invincible Dao Heart!"

"That Human Race individual today is the best touchstone for Little Seven!"

"Use her life to achieve Little Seven's path of invincibility!"

With her experience, so-called Dragon Clan dignity was just a phrase on her lips.

In the end, Long Rui was only a dragon son of the Third Sea Region; she wasn't angry enough to act for this.

The shrimp demon said no more and looked up earnestly at the battle between the two figures.

Both sides fought extremely fast, like two rainbows, entangled and colliding in the sky. The energy turbulence dissipated and shattered the rules of space and time, leaving behind phantoms of their Dharma manifestations across the sky.

After a few hundred rounds, Little Dragon Girl gradually fell into a disadvantage.

Su Quan's palm was gentle, tracing a semicircle to neutralize the force of Little Dragon Girl's attack, then appeared above the young girl like a teleportation, raising his fist high to gather strength, and smashed down with the momentum of suppressing gods and demons.

The gale blew away the young girl's hair, and her face was squeezed until it trembled.

This time, she failed to catch it completely and was smashed into the sea in a sorry state.

Su Quan did not take the opportunity to pursue; instead, he stood with his hands behind his back, calmly watching the girl crawl out of the seawater.

Little Dragon Girl's beautiful eyes were stained blood-red.

Just as she was about to transform into her dragon body to fight Su Quan to the death, her Mother King's voice reached her ears, which gradually stabilized her emotions, which were on the verge of running wild.

"You are not my match, I don't want to fight you, you should just go back!" Su Quan sighed.

Little Dragon Girl could not refute. She could feel the boy's fist technique was fierce and powerful, but there was no murderous intent.

"Who wants your mercy?" Little Dragon Girl sneered.

In a trance, she seemed to hear Long Rui's cry for help before he died again.

Those calls of "Save me" stung deeply in her heart like a death warrant.

The ruthless humiliation by the Su Family and Su Sheng Nü, the muddled intimacy during their training in the abyss, as well as Long Rui's thoughtful care and wholehearted dedication.

All kinds of complex emotions intertwined.

She seemed to have made some kind of decision, slowly raising her right hand. On her fair, delicate wrist was still the red rope that Su Sheng Nü had personally tied on earlier.

However, this time, she did not hesitate too much. She used her fingers as a blade to cut off a corner of her robe, her voice hoarse.

"You Human Race have a saying called 'severing the robe to break the bond'!"

"Today, This Princess will break all ties with you. Let the past years and friendship be like a big dream."

"From now on, me killing you will not be considered ungrateful, and you killing me will not be considered a betrayal of righteousness!"

"Next time we meet, we will decide who lives and who dies!"

One by one, heartless words were spat out from Little Dragon Girl's cherry lips. A dazzling lightning bolt streaked across the sky as if gods were making a show of force.

The strong wind blew the cut-off corner of the robe to Su Quan.

He slowly reached out and gripped the robe corner tightly; it seemed to still retain the girl's body temperature and unique fragrance.

Suddenly, he laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Little Dragon Girl asked subconsciously.

Her beautiful eyes were bright and piercing, carefully observing the subtle changes in Su Quan's expression. She saw an imperceptible tear seep from the corner of his eye.

"You..."

Little Dragon Girl's heart was fiercely tugged by something, as if she were about to lose something very important, or as if something very important had been overlooked by her.

At this moment, the robe corner pinched by Su Quan's fingertips ignited, burning until it turned to ashes, and was scattered by the wind.

He shrugged, a smile remaining on the corner of his mouth.

"I'm laughing because there are too many things I can't hold onto!"

"But... it doesn't matter!"
