Why was this the case? Because one of them was a phoenix and the other was a dragon.
The dragon and phoenix tribes collected all of the sun’s and moon’s essence in the entire world, so it could only be imagined how powerful they were. From the heavens to Earth, they could ride the clouds and harness the mist. Both the dragon and phoenix tribes knew magic, and their bodies were incredibly powerful. Just using their bodies to fight, let alone their spells, made them the overlords of the world.
Kong Hou was from the Dragon tribe and Dong Xiao was from the Phoenix tribe.
The two of them were formidable powerhouses who were capable of turning the world topsy-turvy!
When Kong Hou and Dong Xiao first came to Tian Miao’s side, they had followed her to another world to carry out a light seizing and shadow chasing mission. But when they arrived, they found that the situation had become extremely serious.
The entire place was in a total state of devastation, and the people’s lives had sunk to miserable depths!
A black dragon was roaring in mid-air, continuously spitting out jets of fire and burning everything in the world. All extraordinary humans with special abilities of this world, and even the divine beasts, were helpless against this black dragon. People were dying or wounded; cries of sorrow were heard all over the place from people who had lost their homes, and the massive slaughtering made blood flow all over the ground like a river.
This world was about to be destroyed.
Floating in mid-air, the black dragon laughed wildly and ferociously. It was extremely arrogant.
Long Hou and Dong Xiao felt their hair stand on end, for they were never going to be a comparable match for this black dragon, who emanated such overwhelming force and power.
This mission was so difficult. How were they supposed to complete it?
They didn’t even know if they’d be able to defeat this black dragon by joining hands with their boss. After all, they weren’t quite sure how powerful their boss was.
The next scene that happened after that utterly stupefied them.
Yes, they knew that their boss was powerful, but they didn’t know exactly how powerful she really was. But she shouldn’t be more powerful than they were. Or, at least, she probably had the same strength as them, right? In the beginning, they had decided to follow her because she had saved them from imminent danger. Out of gratitude, they vowed to protect her, their savior, so they were dead set on staying by her side. Shortly after the day they committed themselves to her, they followed her to this world, and by the time they arrived here, they realized that things had taken a turn for the worse.
Without waiting for Kong Hou and Dong Xiao to speak up and discuss with her how they should deal with this black dragon, Tian Miao said in an indifferent tone, “What insolence!”
Then, her face expressionless, she slowly walked forward and struck the black dragon right in the head.
Literally.
She struck a blow right at the huge head of the black dragon who’d been so wild and arrogant just a moment ago.
And simply used some random wooden stick that she’d picked up from somewhere around her…
The huge dragon head exploded in the air and the myriad drops of blood, like a really gorgeous display of blood-red fireworks, bloomed between the heavens and the earth.
Kong Hou and Dong Xiao, who were been caught off guard, were completely drenched in all that flesh and blood. But for Tian Miao, a transparent, circular enchantment appeared in front of her, blocking all of the filthy things that were raining down on them.
When the sky was clear again, Tian Miao simply threw away the wooden stick in her hand. When she turned around and saw Kong Hou and Dong Xiao drenched in blood, she openly expressed her obvious disgust and said with a frown, “Don’t come near me. Go back and wash up. Remove all the stench on you before you make me my tea and snacks. If I smell even a hint that foul stench, I’ll pluck off all your feathers and scales.”
Kong Hou and Dong Xiao slowly turned to look at each other and saw the horror in each other’s eyes.
They were both shivering and trembling all over with fear.
The dragon and phoenix looked at each other in fear. After following their boss, they had resolved to do their best to protect her. But in the end, were they actually the weaklings who needed to be protected?
Kong Hou said in a trembling voice, “… I, I’m not seeing things, right? What did we just witness?”
Dong Xiao’s voice was also trembling as he replied, “… You, you’re not seeing things, and neither am I. She really blew its head off. And its head really exploded.”
