Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor-Chapter 1972: White Flood Dragon
As the two were speaking, more than a dozen streaks of light descended from the sky, surrounding Fang Bai, Liu Qingqing, Xiao Ying, and the Flood Dragon Venerable.
The newcomers were Yu Chao and over a dozen other high-ranking members of Frost Tower.
Seeing Fang Bai chatting and laughing with the Flood Dragon Venerable, Yu Chao and the others assumed they were friends. Thus, they also harbored hostility toward the Flood Dragon Venerable, enveloping him in their powerful aura.
The Flood Dragon Venerable, sensing the ill intentions of Yu Chao and the others, frowned and was about to speak when Fang Bai shouted loudly, "Brother Flood Dragon, let’s join forces and kill all these people. Then we can split the cultivation resources of Frost Tower!"
The Flood Dragon Venerable was taken aback. Before he could react, Fang Bai had already summoned the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade and initiated an attack on Yu Chao and his group.
Seeing this, Yu Chao and the others shouted angrily and cursed, launching a counterattack. Half of them dealt with Fang Bai and his allies, while the other half targeted the Flood Dragon Venerable.
The Flood Dragon Venerable was no fool. He quickly realized Fang Bai deliberately dragged him into the fray and couldn’t help but feel amused, though not too angry. He repelled the combined assault of several high-ranking Frost Tower members with a palm strike and laughed, "You little rascal, how dare you set me up like this!"
After a pause, he added, "I’m not interested in killing these people, but I have no problem helping you drive them away. But we have an agreement, you must take me to see the Flood Dragon! If you break your word, I’ll throw you into the lake as food for the Flood Dragon!"
Fang Bai chuckled and said, "No problem!"
The Flood Dragon Venerable was a powerhouse of the ninth level of the heavenly tribulation, his combat strength comparable to Fang Bai’s. Drawing him into the battle was greatly beneficial for Fang Bai.
Seeing the Flood Dragon Venerable indeed join the fray against Yu Chao, Fang Bai felt secretly pleased.
Though Frost Tower’s side had more people, they only had Yu Chao as a powerhouse of the ninth level of the heavenly tribulation; while Fang Bai’s side had only two people, they both possessed combat strength of the ninth level of the heavenly tribulation.
By joining forces, even if they couldn’t defeat the powerful members of Frost Tower, they could remain undefeated, perhaps even without summoning the Flood Dragon or the Bixie Immortal Beast, they could drive them away.
Facing Yu Chao, an old powerhouse of the ninth level of the heavenly tribulation, the Flood Dragon Venerable dared not be arrogant and likewise summoned his spiritual artifact, fighting with all his might.
Fang Bai noticed that his spiritual artifact was a giant spear, resembling a Flood Dragon, of royal grade superior, and thought that his title "Flood Dragon Venerable" probably originated from this spiritual artifact.
Fang Bai wielded the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade, with combat strength comparable to a powerhouse of the ninth level of the heavenly tribulation.
But with Yu Chao aside, the combined strength of Liu Qianren and over a dozen other high-ranking Frost Tower members was also comparable to a powerhouse of the ninth level of the heavenly tribulation. Thus, the two sides fought evenly, and it was difficult to determine the winner in a short time.
While attacking and defending, Fang Bai also had to protect Liu Qingqing and Xiao Ying behind him from harm, making it hard to battle freely. Yet even so, he was not at a disadvantage in the intense fight.
This made Liu Qianren and the others increasingly alarmed as the battle went on, thinking that if this kid could free up his hands, they might be the ones unable to hold out in the end.
The battle on Lake Heart Island attracted many strong spectators cultivating around, and the originally calm lake waters were stirred into huge waves.
At this time, apart from Fang Bai, probably no one noticed that at a thousand meters deep at the lake bottom, a giant cave had a few dormant Flood Dragons slowly opening their eyes and beginning to stir restlessly.
A mature White Flood Dragon with two protrusions on its head gleamed with fierce light, silently swimming tens of meters toward the lake surface.
This Flood Dragon, with terrifying combat power and a strong body, even a human powerhouse of the ninth level of the heavenly tribulation would have to cautiously avoid it.
In its movement, it concealed its aura so well that it couldn’t be discovered unless one deliberately spread their divine sense to probe it.
While Fang Bai battled Liu Qianren and the others, he pretended to be overwhelmed, retreating toward the edge of Lake Heart Island, while Liu Qianren and the others kept pushing forward, getting closer to the lake surface.
"Splash!"
With a sound of water, a hundred meters from Lake Heart Island, the lake waters suddenly parted, and a White Flood Dragon shot out from the lake like lightning, with no warning, revealing over twenty meters of its upper body and opening its mouth to pounce on Fang Bai and the others.
Fang Bai had long been prepared. As the Flood Dragon emerged from the water, he moved sideways, instantly appearing a hundred meters away.
The over a dozen high-ranking Frost Tower members with Liu Qianren were stunned for a moment. The first few were swallowed by the Flood Dragon, becoming its meal.
"Roar..."
The White Flood Dragon let out a dragon’s roar, sweeping its upper body in a horizontal motion, knocking aside several high-ranking Frost Tower members, including Liu Qianren.
Its collision was immensely powerful, and although Liu Qianren and the others had strong bodies, they couldn’t withstand it. They were sent flying high by the immense force, blood spraying wildly in midair, grievously injured before falling into the lake, unconscious.
The few Frost Tower powerhouses who luckily escaped were terrified, quickly maneuvering their spiritual artifacts to fly into the air.
For a moment, Fang Bai had no opponents left.
Yu Chao, who was fiercely battling the Flood Dragon Venerable, saw the legendary Flood Dragon suddenly appear, causing heavy losses to his side. His mind was filled with mixed feelings, and he immediately fell into a disadvantage.
Knowing that continuing the battle, Fang Bai and this big man in front of him would certainly defeat him, Yu Chao lost his will to fight.
The Flood Dragon Venerable, knowing Frost Tower was a top sect and not fearing them, didn’t want to become arch-enemies with them, so seeing Yu Chao losing his fighting spirit, he retracted his spear and shouted, "I’ll spare your life, now leave!"
Yu Chao glared at him resentfully, lightly tapping his foot on the ground, and his figure flew into the air, not daring to linger, fleeing far away with the high-ranking Frost Tower members who escaped the Flood Dragon’s attack, not caring to save the grievously injured, unconscious Liu Qianren and others.
"Fang Bai, save godfather..."
Liu Qingqing anxiously said, seeing the White Flood Dragon about to turn and devour the unconscious Liu Qianren in the lake.
Fang Bai chirped several strange, elongated sounds, the White Flood Dragon’s body paused, then slowly extended its head toward Fang Bai.
"It’s a Flood Dragon...a real Flood Dragon..."
The Flood Dragon Venerable, having waited in the Jade Lake region for a hundred years, was seeing a Flood Dragon for only the second time, and this time he could observe it up close, leaving him both awed and excited.
Seeing the Flood Dragon approach Fang Bai, he wanted to remind Fang Bai to dodge, yet noticed the Flood Dragon had no hostile intent, even seeming to be close to Fang Bai. He couldn’t help feeling strange, staring with wide eyes.
As the White Flood Dragon approached, Fang Bai chirped again, the White Flood Dragon blinked, and its gaze toward Fang Bai became more affectionate, even rubbing its huge head against Fang Bai’s body.
This left the Flood Dragon Venerable stupefied, finding it incredible, and he couldn’t help asking, "Young one, can you communicate with the Flood Dragon?"
Fang Bai replied, "Humans have human language, beasts have beast speech. I understand the Beast Taming Technique and can communicate with all spirit beasts."
After a pause, he added, "Actually, this Flood Dragon is already intelligent and capable of speaking human language, but it simply can’t be bothered to converse with humans. If you don’t believe me, try saying hello to it?"
