Crown
“It’s time you yield for stealing,” Long Xingyun asserted, sweeping his gaze over to the dragon vine.
“Mu Yu, let’s clobber them all! That fraudulent thing calling himself a dragon is getting on my nerves more and more!” erupted the dragon vine.
“Stay right where you are. We’re no match for the four of them,” ordered Mu Yu, voice low.
Qiao Xue had her hands tied. Therefore, she wouldn’t be able to come to his aid.
“What are going to do, then?”
Xiaoshuai, who was sniffing the air, said, “Mu Yu, that mermaid’s crown probably tastes scrumptious.”
“Go eat it, then.”
“All right, back me up. I’ll start from the crack in the north,” stated Xiaoshuai, zipping out of Mu Yu’s shirt at top speed.
Mu Yu went after Xiaoshuai, sprouting tree branches from the formation underneath him and then vanishing into a tree branch.
“Apprehend him!” Long Xingyun commanded, ripping into the tree branches using his dragon claws.
More branches spawned as Long Xingyun mowed them down, starting to form an island on the ocean. The death qi residing in the branches boiled Long Xingyun’s blood hotter.
Long Yeli and E Wenmao used their spiritual energy to create a barrier around themselves, preventing the branches from getting to them.
“Where is he?” thundered Long Xingyun.
“He has not gone anywhere. His ability is the same as Qiao Xue’s; he has merged with the tree branches,” explained Long Yeli, chopping a bundle of branches.
“Let’s blast them all apart, then!”
Long Yeli and E Wenmao regarded each other with a nod and then discharged spiritual energy in synchrony, forcing the branches apart and back into a smaller area. Mu Yu’s sole goal was to buy enough time for Xiaoshuai to make his way into the crown’s crack. Thus, he was more than happy to engage them in a war of attrition.
Xiaoshuai only discovered the tiny crack that the naked eye wouldn’t have noticed thanks to his keen sense of smell. He dug and dug into the crack with his sharp claws while Mu Yu focussed on stalling the enemy.
“Take me in!” instructed Xiaoshuai.
Mu Yu dragged Xiaoshuai into Wood Spirit and slithered into the crack Xiaoshuai dug out as a blade of grass, albeit with quite a struggle. “Xiaoshuai, dig faster. They’re gaining ground on me.”
“I know. Trust me. My claws are deadly sharp.” True to his words, Xiaoshuai soon cheered, “All right, spirit milk!”
“You mean that sticky spiritual qi stuff? Nice catch!” complimented Mu Yu.
Spiritual milk was another means for spiritual qi to exist under a specific set of conditions. Spiritual milk ceaselessly absorbed spiritual qi to increase its potency, and a deficiency was exactly what caused the crack in the crown.
“You bet!” cheered Xiaoshuai.
“How about you eat it all?”
“The crown would be useless, then. The spiritual milk is the energy supply for the barrier,” answered Xiaoshuai, burning to jump off out from Wood Spirit to drink it.
“I also want to try it,” voiced the dragon vine.
To prevent Wood Spirit from instinctively absorbing all of the spirit milk and getting into an argument with Xiaoshuai, Mu Yu turned Wood Sprit into numerous pipes to suck out the spirit milk.
“Where is he? Did he already escape?” Long Xingyun shouted, not seeing Mu Yu anywhere after annihilating all of the branches.
The mermaid king, Yu Han, proudly claimed, “No. They can’t escape. My crown. Is unbreakable. It is a treasure my ancestor found when conquering the world alongside His Majesty. Even His Majesty. Would have to exhaust himself to break it. They could never. Br-”
Crack… Crack… Crack!
“N-n-n-noooooo!” cried Yu Han, unable to believe his eyes as the crown crumbled into the ocean as he tried to race over.
Mu Yu stepped out, dusting the opposite shoulder Xiaoshuai, who was sucking on a straw stuck inside a coconut-shaped Wood Spirit, sat on. They say, “You’re only as strong as your weakest link.”
“Unforgivable!” roared Yu Han.
“I have no sympathy for those who don’t listen and smash their own foot.”
Yu Han brandished his trident and zoomed over to Mu Yu. “You think nobody can stop you?!”
Mu Yu ejected qi from Shadow Splitter Sword, suppressing the turbulent waters, and then thrust, creating the impression millions of swords were launched. Mu Yu flicked the tip of his sword repetitively ever so slightly, yet it diced the trident inch by inch, encroaching on Yu Han’s arm. As a result, Long Yeli was forced to palm the forward sword qi down into the water to save Yu Han’s life.
Splash! The rising waves assumed the form of Shadow Spitter Sword due to the sword qi’s influence, firing themselves at Yu Han and Long Xingyun.
Once the waves settled, Long Xingyun thundered, “Where did he go?!”
The only things Long Xingyun saw were frightened mermaids after witnessing Mu Yu’s attacks.
“Curse him! I’ll get my hands on the dragon vine sooner or later!” raged Long Xingyun, scowling.
