Chapter 1116: Chapter 1040: Bi Bidong's Acting! Offering Herself?_1
"Roar—"
A gigantic creature, covered in azure scales much like a prehistoric dinosaur, was chasing after a mother and daughter with its gaping maw wide open.
The mother and daughter wore expressions of terror as they dashed frantically through the forest.
They were dressed in simple battle attire, which was already torn in several places and even bore bloody marks, revealing their tender skin.
When they spotted the figures of an old man and a young boy, they didn't cry out for help or run towards them but quickly turned a corner, all the while screaming a warning:
"Run for your lives! That's an Azure Armored Lizard Dragon, equivalent to a Sixth Grade Martial Artist. Get out of here fast!"
Luo Tiance showed a look of surprise.
"Grandson, these two are quite interesting,"
Luo Yu nodded in agreement.
"Pretty, they are indeed quite pretty."
"Such a pity they're about to be devoured by that beast."
"Who asked you if they're pretty?" Luo Tiance couldn't help but scold, "I was saying that people who are normally fleeing for their lives should see us and try to divert the disaster our way or call out to us for help. I didn't expect these two women to be so kind-hearted, choosing not to drag such ordinary bystanders into their plight."
"I was just making a joke, Grandpa," Luo Yu obviously understood their actions.
In the wilderness, if you're in danger, you don't have to outrun the ferocious beast chasing you, you just have to outrun your companion.
But this pair, who seemed to be mother and daughter, did not harbor such malicious thoughts.
Instead, they chose to warn and avoid others in advance.
At this moment, Luo Tiance seemed to be reflecting, but also seemed to be deliberately analyzing for Luo Yu, looking towards the mother and daughter being chased by the lizard dragon and saying:
"Actually, these two women are very clever."
"If they cried out directly for rescue, given that people are unfamiliar with each other in the wild, I'm afraid many would hesitate to set themselves on fire to help."
"Moreover, if we weren't strong enough to stop the Azure Armored Lizard Dragon, it would just mean there would be two more dead ghosts."
"However, if we had the strength to deal with the lizard dragon, seeing these mother and daughter's kind behavior and their pitiful state, I reckon we would take the initiative to chase after and help them, and then they would be saved."
"Swoosh—"
By Luo Tiance's side, a dark figure had already dashed out, heading straight for the direction where the lizard dragon was rampaging.
The voice filled with snark came from ahead.
"Grandpa, could two women in danger be that calculating? If you analyze any longer, we might just have to go and collect their corpses."
"This kid." Luo Tiance shook his head and sighed: "In the wild, one must always be wary of everyone."
However, he was not in a rush and slowly followed.
"Roar—"
"Sister Dong, they didn't follow up. It looks like they have no intention of saving us," the young long-legged girl said as she looked back.
"Xiaowu! What Sister Dong? Call me Mom!" the mature beauty said: "Keep a terrified look on your face, don't take it lightly, they won't stand by and watch us die."
"Okay." Xiaowu agreed, and to make it more convincing, she even pretended to be exhausted, slowing her pace more and more.
Her footing started to stumble.
The enraged lizard dragon was rapidly closing in, and the situation seemed increasingly dire.
"Daughter!"
Bi Bidong called out with worry, then slowed her pace, preparing to cover Xiaowu's retreat.
"You beast!"
"Boom—"
Bi Bidong stopped to attack the lizard dragon, her body covered in the fluctuating force of qi and blood. She leaped from the ground, her black boots whirring through the air, aiming a kick at the lizard dragon's neck.
The lizard dragon took the hit head-on, its neck only turning slightly pale.
With an enraged roar, it struck out with its claw, bringing a foul wind. The mature beauty narrowly dodged, avoiding the claws but not the wind carried with them, which sent her crashing into a distant tree with a thud.
"Mom!"
Instead of fleeing, the long-legged girl quickly rushed to the mature beauty's side, helped her up, and tried to lead her away.
"You must go, this beast is fierce, and we won't both escape," the mature beauty urged, ready to sacrifice herself.
"No! I won't leave." The long-legged girl shook her head repeatedly, her eyes reddening, and her special pink pupils already misting over with a layer of water.
"If we don't leave now, we won't be able to escape at all." The mature beauty said anxiously, her wounded arm pushing the long-legged girl.
"Roar—"
The enraged lizard dragon had had enough of these two little creatures that dodged and leaped. It had been chasing for so long; it was time to finish this.
It rushed forward with speed, its gaping maw open wide to swallow the mother and daughter in one bite.
At the crucial moment, a figure of a young man emerged from the side, standing in front of the mother and daughter, and calmly said a phrase.
"It's okay."
"You are safe now."
The mature beauty immediately warned: "Be careful, it is an Azure Armored Lizard Dragon, not a..."
At that moment, the Azure Armored Lizard Dragon had already lunged forward, aiming to swallow this meddlesome youth in one bite.
"You beast, how dare you."
Luo Yu's feet swirled with energy, his body twisted as one, his arms bent, and he threw a punch.
The tremendous force of qi and blood erupted.
It seemed as if he had transformed into a crimson tiger head, roaring out.
"Boom!"
The ferocious Azure Armored Lizard Dragon was blown away, its once-famed azure scales shattering into pieces.
Sliding far away, it mowed down trees and plants in its path and plowed through the black soil of the forest floor.
Eventually, its hind legs twitched a few times before it lay motionless.
Luo Yu didn't pose or act cool but turned to ask:
"I didn't catch that just now, you said 'cannot what'?"
At that time, the mature beauty's lips trembled, and she finished what she had not managed to say earlier.
"Not a Sixth Grade Martial Artist... cannot be shaken."
"You mean, you, oh no! You managed to kill it?"
