Chapter 1051: Breakthrough, Mid-Level Martial Supreme (2)
The initially straight-faced Gu Ruoyun could not stop herself from bursting into laughter when she saw the flaming dragon which had appeared before her.
"A flaming dragon’s spirit? If your body were here, perhaps I would have felt threatened. However, you are only a spirit! I need not worry about a spirit."
Gu Ruoyun raised her brow and stared at the flaming dragon’s transparent body as she slowly replied.
"Hmph, don’t spout such wild words, little girl!" the flaming dragon scoffed icily. "I may be a spirit now but I can still destroy you! This Holy One has been imprisoned here for so many years and many humans had blundered in before. I had turned my back on their inferior talents so I burned them into ashes! However, your talents aren’t bad. As long as you give your physical body to me, I will spare your life!"
Hearing this, Gu Ruoyun smiled. "Give my physical body to you? How is that any different from death?"
"You..." The flaming dragon glared at her. He then spoke arrogantly, "That’s still better than having your soul scattered into nothing! Besides, little girl, if you had left when you had just entered the blazing cave, perhaps you could have avoided this stand-off. Yet you had insisted on entering deeper into the cave! Isn’t this the same as presenting your physical body to me on a silver platter? You can’t blame me for enjoying this!"
The flaming dragon had been imprisoned here and he could only move around the area surrounding the Dragon Phoenix Fruit.
This was the reason why Qin Hao had been able to leave with his life.
The flaming dragon could not possibly reach that area near the cave’s entrance! Had he ventured any deeper, he might have ended up losing his life like everyone else without even leaving a corpse!
"If I refuse?" Gu Ruoyun mildly lifted her gaze and an icy chill slowly filled the smile on her lips.
"Hahaha!"
The flaming dragon laughed in spite of his rage, his red eyes looked as if they were spitting fire. "If you won’t do this the easy way, little human girl, we’ll do it the hard way. Don’t blame me for twisting your soul and scattering it into the air!"
Roar!
As he finished talking, the flaming dragon roared angrily and swatted his long tail towards Gu Ruoyun.
Slam!
The flaming dragon’s tail struck Gu Ruoyun’s body, causing her to stumble a few steps back. A small trickle of blood began to drip down from the corner of her lips.
Generally speaking, once any living thing loses its life, its spirit would turn into a being with no substance.
Just like the white dragon.
Even though he was a weapon spirit and was visible to the eye, one could not touch him physically!
However, the person who had imprisoned the flaming dragon seems to have done something that provided his spirit with an essence. The tail which had hit Gu Ruoyun had nearly smashed her ribs.
"Human, this Holy One shall give you one last chance. Will you give me your physical body or not?"
The flaming dragon stared down at Gu Ruoyun, looking rather arrogant as if the woman beneath him was as tiny as an insect! He, on the other hand, was like a deity sitting high above her.
"Even if you asked me a hundred times, my answer will remain the same! I make the decisions over my own body. I will never give it to you."
Gu Ruoyun wiped the trail of blood from the corner of her lips as she rose to her feet.
"Hmph. You are ignorant and arrogant!"
The flaming dragon no longer bothered to discuss bullsh*t with her. He hurled his dragon’s breath from his mouth, aiming it towards Gu Ruoyun.
Boom!
The dragon’s breath was like a flaming tornado as it slammed fiercely onto Gu Ruoyun’s body. Gu Ruoyun was pushed several steps back. Her fine, black hair gently fluttered in the wind as an icy chill appeared within her clear and cold gaze.
