Chapter 864 She Wants to Fight Two Against One
The roar of the black dragon seemed to cast a spell of "silence" on the battlefield. Apart from the occasional sound of falling stones, there was no other sound on the entire battlefield.
Those Nata warriors, who were quite far from the battlefield, naturally heard the roar, but they were completely unfamiliar with the name "Saigong" and did not know whether they were friends or enemies. They could only grip their weapons tightly and be on guard.
However, the two people mentioned above are very familiar with this name.
Even when fighting the Abyss's true form, Kong's expression didn't change much. But when he heard this name come from the mouth of the black dragon, it was as if a guess he least wanted to face had become a reality, and his expression changed drastically.
Vulcan Mavica, standing in mid-air, remained calm, arms crossed, maintaining her rising momentum as she quietly awaited Xu Ning's appearance.
Xu Ning first stuffed Tun Tun back into the Dust-Hidden Cave behind the big rock, then muttered a curse under his breath before slowly walking out through the void.
"Old Gu, we can't do this."
Xu Ning strolled to the side of the jet-black dragon, appearing completely unguarded, and slowly said, "I told you a long time ago, don't always look down on our closed world. Although your perspective may be narrow, it doesn't mean you're weak. Do you think our Tianli can't even lift a sword? How can you be so bold as to show your true form here... and even shout my name loudly in front of so many people, making me feel... well..."
"Eat it inside and out!"
Paimon, who had been hiding behind some large rock just like Xu Ning, suddenly shouted angrily, leaving Xu Ning speechless and unable to exhale for a long time.
Moreover, Little White Hair's skill in hiding during battles was so refined that Xu Ning looked around but couldn't find where Paimon was hiding and shouting.
After all his efforts were in vain, Xu Ning could only sigh, "That's roughly the gist of it."
The jet-black dragon sneered, "If you cared about such things, you wouldn't have come to me in the first place. Do you really think I wanted to put myself in such danger? Thousands of years of fruitless efforts, with most of my men lost, and my situation outside isn't much better than here. If it weren't for that woman you brought to replenish my forces, I would have been..."
"You...replenish the forces of the demons in the abyss?"
Kong had been holding his longsword, guarding against the black dragon, but his words revealed a lot of shocking information. He slowly turned around and pointed his longsword at Xu Ning, waiting for his answer.
"Hey, what does this have to do with me? Didn't you listen carefully? It wasn't me. He also said it was a 'woman'... But you know, in that all-out war five hundred years ago, not only did we suffer heavy losses, but they, as the attacking side, also suffered considerable losses. Giving them some reinforcements would indeed be beneficial to us..."
Benefits?! What nonsense are you talking about?
Kong almost laughed out of anger, but now he was certain that his cheap older brother was not on the same path as him.
"Expose the adulterer! Expose the adulterer!"
Paimon, whose whereabouts were unknown, shouted again.
"Hey!"
Xu Ning was also furious. Did that little white-haired guy really think I couldn't find him?
"Enough with the nonsense. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Help me eliminate Vulcan and take down Nata, and I promise you can choose anyone you want to take with you, but..."
The jet-black dragon pointed its Sun-Slaying Flame into the air, "...His life must be spared!"
Xu Ning felt that he had been speechless more times today than in the previous few years combined.
Can't you see the situation clearly even now? At a point like this, you're still thinking about killing my little brother?
This guy's ancient name was already written in advance, and now he's become one of the immortal cockroaches. Don't even mention you want to kill him, he'd dare to hug you and self-destruct if he had the chance, believe it or not.
The fact that I'm able to protect you, you brute, and escape unscathed is all thanks to the Abyss's good deeds. Damn, has the Abyss ever done anything good? Never mind...
"I'll hold off the God of Fire for now. Don't even think about my little brother's life. It's a miracle if you can corrupt the six races' totems and break through this space to escape. Don't think so much nonsense. Do you think I'm the God of War of Teyvat?"
This brute named "Gustoth" may not know the true value of the Teyvat gods, but Xu Ning himself knows it better than anyone else.
He slowly pulled out the "Peak-Slaying Blade" given to him by the Emperor from the Hidden Dust Cave, and slowly rose to the same height as the God of Fire, Mavica.
"I've been seeing you fight with your fists the whole time. I remember you have a greatsword called Burning Sun Thousand Suns, don't you?"
Mavica stared at the dark gold weapon in Xu Ning's hand for a long time before speaking, "When you are about to defeat me, I will take out that sword to save my life."
Defeating the God of Fire? Don't be ridiculous.
Xu Ning gave a wry smile. Even at the gathering of the Seven Gods five hundred years ago, when they sparred for fun after drinking, no one could defeat the God of Fire in a sparring match because of the constant war in Nata. In fact, they would all bless the God of Fire in the end, saying, "May victory forever belong to the God of Fire!"
But if you really think that everyone is giving way to this mortal who has ascended to godhood, and that she is actually not very capable, then you're really out of your mind.
After all, the Vulcans of each generation were not weak, but only this one could sit with the other six rulers and drink and exchange skills.
Of all the gods present, only our Emperor and our Ah Ying could probably keep her in check. As for Barbatos... Damn it, why does that unlucky thing always slip away at crucial moments? If he could have been here to help even a little, this matter would have been resolved long ago.
"excuse me."
Xu Ning reached out and touched the blade of the sword, and a surging wave of water burst forth from the hilt, rushing along the blade and slashing towards Mavica.
Water and fire are inherently incompatible; too much water extinguishes fire, and too much fire boils water.
Xu Ning knew that the pure water he had borrowed might not actually pose any threat to the God of Fire, so as the water flowed over the sword's edge, he also incorporated the weight of the rock into the waves.
Even so, Mavica only threw one punch.
That instant was like a sun exploding on her fist, endless firepower concentrated on one point, a single punch shattering the thousand-foot-high turbid waves in front of her, sending Xu Ning staggering backward.
But it only pushed him back. Although the power of the punch was overwhelming, it failed to injure Xu Ning.
Mavica was somewhat surprised to feel the stiffness in her fist.
But she was decisive. After forcing Xu Ning back with a punch, she didn't stop at all. Her whole body suddenly turned into a line of fire and rushed towards the black dragon Gustot.
She actually wanted to fight two against one!
