Mowenjie looked at Huang Ling'er, don't worry about this matter, you can't solve it. I will not be afraid of it. It is so insulting to me that I could never easily give in to it. No matter what, I will fight with it to the death! It can do whatever it wants, but I will never step back a single step!
Huang Lingling looked at Mowenjie helplessly, "My husband, you are really going to let us die here, right? Why are you so stubborn? Why can't you understand a simple truth: if you keep the mountains standing, you'll never run out of wood to burn. Why don't you know how to turn back? What's the point of fighting it to the bitter end?"
Mowenjie looked at Huang Ling'er helplessly, "Why don't you believe me? I've said that as long as we say we won't have any trouble, then it won't happen. Even if it has all the abilities in the world, it can't do anything to me. You don't know what kind of ace I have up my sleeve, but why won't you believe me? We are husband and wife, and you don't believe me. Do you think our marriage can continue to exist? It can't. At the very least, there is no trust between us. Can a marriage like this last long?"
Huang Ling'er, upon hearing Mowenjie's words, her tears instantly welled up. "Jie, do you think I do this for myself? I do it for you. Even if it means giving up my life for you, I would be willing. Do I fear death? No, I do it for you because your future is my everything. I just don't want anything to happen to you. You understand this right? Your interpretation of my actions truly breaks my heart and leaves me disappointed. My entire being is here with you, no matter what won't change. That's why I make these compromises; all so that you can live a peaceful life."
The dragon's eyes widened and glowed with anger as it stared at the two of them. "You little Immortals, daring to show disrespect to me, the senior Immortal, and even mock me? Today, you will have to pay a price, or else where is my dignity! It leaped into the air, intending to strike Mowenjie with a palm that would kill him instantly!"
Mowenjie knew that he was no match for the dragon and couldn't resist, but he also couldn't say that he wouldn't fight back. He knew that there must be something protecting him, so he stood his ground and faced the dragon! If you can kill me with one blow, then you are truly powerful. But if you can't, whether I live or die is uncertain!
Seeing Mowenjie's boldness, the dragon was filled with rage beyond words. The dragon is far more powerful than the serpent, not only in terms of brute strength but also capable of simple cloud-creating and rain-drenching. It had lost its senses. How dare a mere immortal look down upon it and ridicule it? This is an insult it cannot bear, especially considering its status as Yang Jie's protector and companion through thirty-three heavens. Such a glorious past, yet now looked down upon by a mere mortal — this humiliation drives it mad. It will never let Mowenjie go. Roaring, it charged at him! Just as the dragon's front claw was about to strike Mowenjie's head, suddenly a voice rang out: "Beast deserter! Cease your rampage!"
This sound made all three look up at the sky, and each of them had their own thoughts.
Huang Ling'er was overjoyed. At this critical moment, someone stepped in to stop the incident, making her the happiest person. She had always hoped for such a result. No matter what, as long as the dragon couldn't harm Mowenjie, that was her greatest wish. She secretly thought, is this what Mowenjie meant by someone protecting him? If it's true that there is such protection, he really does have such confidence and skills to stop the dragon at crucial moments.
Mowenjie, on the other hand, was thinking, "What's your problem with getting involved in other people's business? Why did you show up at the crucial moment? If you hadn't stepped in, I might have gotten some unexpected benefits. But your sudden appearance ruined everything. What I've got now is nothing, and I've lost all chances. You're definitely doing me a favor by ruining my plans. How unlucky can I get? At the most critical moment, you showed up to ruin my chances! The powerful mortal interfered and stopped me from harming the dragon. After drinking its blood, my abilities significantly increased. That's why many humans and fierce beasts want to capture and kill dragons. You're not helping me at all! Otherwise, if it weren't for your interference, I could have drunk some of its blood to boost my strength."
The dragon did not see it that way. What is going on with this little immortal? He dares to offend me and keeps doing it over and over. I can't just let him get away with it. At first, I had a benevolent nature and was willing to let him go, but now it seems like someone doesn't want me to harm him and insists that I must let him go. This kind of thing is really intolerable for me. If I were to really let him go, then what would others think of me, the dragon? Can anyone provoke me at will? Can anyone make me angry as they please? Am I too lenient and kind? Can he just bullyingly mistreat me like this? No, I will not let this little immortal off the hook today! Looking at the sky, he said: "Celestial Monk Chi-Hao, I advise you not to meddle in this affair. You can't handle such things. Today, this little immortal must be annihilated by my hands. If you want to fight with me, then let's fight; who is afraid of who? You think I'm really afraid of you? I don't want to fight with you on the same level as humans, but don't think that I don't know my place! Otherwise, I'll deal with you too. Then see how you can handle it. In terms of our strength gap between us two, do you think there's a big difference? If you think there is a big gap, then let's have a battle of 300 rounds; I still don't believe that there's no difference in strength between us two. And if you really want to fight it out until the end with me, then we'll have a great battle!"
The bodhisattva of the Path of Compassion looked at the dragon and shouted, "Beastly creature, you're truly reckless. Do you still want to challenge me, Buddha Zhenhang, to the end? Do you have the strength and ability for that? Don't you know my strength and background? Do you need me to explain them to you? The bodhisattva of the Path of Compassion, also known as Great Bodhisattva Zhenhang, is one of the Twelve Golden Immortals in the Clarity Sect. He resides in Luo Jia Cave on Putuo Mountain. He possesses the three treasures: Yuexing Gem Scroll, Pure Crystal Gourd, and his mount is a Golden-haired howler. He is one of the three great bodhisattvas among the Twelve Golden Immortals who have an ethereal body. His magical power ranks third among the Twelve Golden Immortals. Not only me, but even my mount can directly annihilate you. Why are you still shouting at me? Are you really not afraid to die? Do you really think that just because you've been with Yang Jian, you can ignore everyone in the heavenly court? How did you get up to the Thirty-three Heavens? Don't you know yourself? And don't you understand Yang Jian's strength? If both of you are really capable, why are you trapped in the Fourth Desire Realm? You should also retreat from my uncle like this; otherwise, I will not spare you!"
