Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 1119 - 1119 1079 The Battle Begins

1119: Chapter 1079: The Battle Begins 1119: Chapter 1079: The Battle Begins Su Jingqian furrowed his brows slightly upon hearing Huang Tiankang’s words.

“You’ve deployed men, can that still count as a bait ship?”

“Of course, it counts.

I’ve used death-row convicts from within the city, people who were destined to die anyway.

You could say they’ve made their final contribution to Cloud Sea City.”

He said with a sense of pride.

“Then that’s fine…

it’s a method nevertheless.”

Following that, a ship entered the lake’s surface and began to make its way towards the middle of the lake.

“Hmm, not bad, everything is going smoothly.

Although the lake surface is calm, I believe it won’t take long before that creature is lured out.”

“Recently, no one has come to fish on the lake, and the flood dragon hasn’t eaten for a while; it must be starving now.”

The two of them observed intently.

Not too far away, Lu Chuan, Jyang Ran, and Yu Qiming dismounted and waited for a moment here.

“The lake surface is so calm, I wonder if the flood dragon will take the bait?” Jyang Ran looked towards the lake and said.

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “The last time I came here, before the flood dragon appeared, the lake surface was also undisturbed, then it suddenly burst forth.”

“So, even without any signs, it could appear at any moment.”

Lu Chuan said earnestly.

Jyang Ran nodded slightly.

“Do you two think that these people can handle it?”

Lu Chuan shook his head slightly, “I’m not sure, but let’s just watch.

They have the advantage in numbers, and if they work together to hunt the flood dragon, perhaps it’s possible.”

“Besides, the strength of Su Jingqian and Huang Tiankang is not to be underestimated; they should be able to manage it.”

Lu Chuan affirmed.

Yu Qiming took out a water flask and poured himself a cup of tea.

“Let’s just wait, I don’t think it will show up any time soon.”

However, as soon as the words fell, the lake surface suddenly exploded, a column of water shot skyward, and the immense body of the flood dragon burst from the lake surface, charging towards the small boat in the lake.

Its gaping maw opened wide, snapping down towards the boat.

On the boat, two bound individuals opened their eyes wide in terror, watching as the flood dragon’s jaws descended upon them.

Splash!!!

The water splashed down, waves surged on the lake, and the water rippled violently.

On the shore, Huang Tiankang saw this and promptly shouted, “Get the bows and crossbows ready, prepare to fire!”

“Fire!”

Before the flood dragon’s body fully re-entered the lake, thousands of crossbow bolts flew out, falling on the flood dragon like a heavy rain.

Swish!!!

Clang!!!

The sharp crossbow bolt tips struck the flood dragon’s scales but couldn’t penetrate.

However, a few bolts hit the edge of the scales by chance, piercing through the gaps into the flesh.

Thereupon, the flood dragon let out a howl similar to a dragon’s roar.

The sound waves roiled the lake surface, stirring up waves that lashed towards the shore.

Both Huang Tiankang and Su Jingqian wore a distressed look, finding the piercing sound unbearable.

“That bastard is almost done for, it’s time for us to take the stage!”

Su Jingqian led his unit towards the edge of the lake.

Using their footwork and attaching spiritual energy to their feet, they could easily step across the lake’s surface and charge at the flood dragon.

For a moment, dozens of soldiers clad in silver-white light armor charged over the lake towards the flood dragon under Su Jingqian’s lead.

Upon seeing this, Huang Tiankang also rushed out without hesitation.

“Brothers, attack!

Slay the flood dragon and defend Cloud Sea City!”

On both sides of the lake, huge warships rush into the water, slowly heading toward the flood dragon’s position.

The flood dragon in the lake circled for a while but did not dive to the bottom to leave the area.

It had been enraged, completely disregarding the fact that it was already encircled; it was determined to break through the surrounding enemies.

Lu Chuan watched the thousands of people surrounding and hunting the flood dragon, and couldn’t help but take out a small stool to sit and watch intently.

“Let’s see just how strong Cloud Sea City really is.

From their momentum, they seem confident in their victory.”

Lu Chuan took a sip of tea, smiling as he spoke.

“Let’s enjoy their performance then, I didn’t expect that without us lifting a finger, this flood dragon would be finished.”

Yu Qiming said with a smile.

Jyang Ran, however, shook his head, “The battle hasn’t really started yet, don’t speak too soon.”

“What else is there to say?

They’re completely on the defense and have the absolute advantage.

Huang Tiankang and Su Jingqian are both Martial Saint Realm warriors.

If they make a move together, how could they not have the upper hand?”

Just then, above the lake surface, the giant head of the flood dragon burst forth, its huge vertical pupils staring at the two groups of people.

For a moment, both groups stopped in their tracks, the flood dragon’s cold vertical pupils as if peering into their souls, sending shivers down their spines, leaving them unsure of what to do next.

Huang Tiankang stared into the eyes of the flood dragon, feeling as if he had fallen into an abyss, unable to struggle.

“Su…

Su Jingqian, take action quickly!

We can’t wait any longer!”

Without hesitation, he drew his long spear, lunging at the flood dragon with it.

Swoosh!

The next moment, the spear tip pierced through the air, shooting out a fierce attack formed by converging Spiritual Energy.

Swoosh!

Almost instantaneously, the spear’s light struck the flood dragon, however, it only shattered a scale, nothing more.

Seeing this, Huang Tiankang was instantly rattled, unsure of what to do next!

Upon witnessing this, Su Jingqian swallowed nervously, his hand holding Peijian seeming somewhat comical.

“Lord Huang, can we still retreat?”

“I think…

we have no way out…”

Behind them all, a whirlpool was gradually expanding and moving closer, created by the tail of the flood dragon.

They had no escape; they’d either be sucked into the lake or have to fight desperately to the end!

“Attack!!!”

Huang Tiankang roared, charging at the flood dragon!

Behind him, a host of soldiers all set up their crossbows, firing at the flood dragon all at once!

The flood dragon, braving the rain of arrows, pounced toward Huang Tiankang.

Swoosh!

Its massive jaws bit down on Huang Tiankang.

Huang Tiankang, using all his might, thrust his spear into the flood dragon’s mouth.

Even though the spear had penetrated the flesh, no blood was seen.

Slimy saliva spilled down, covering Huang Tiankang completely.

Su Jingqian saw this and quickly spread his arms wide, as more than a dozen Peijians materialized around him.

Then, with a pointing gesture, the swords stabbed toward the flood dragon one after another.

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

The blades hit the scales of the flood dragon, slashing in with difficulty but almost showing no effect.

The flood dragon and Huang Tiankang were deadlocked, neither yielding.

Under Huang Tiankang’s feet, the Spiritual Energy that had gathered could no longer resist the pressure; his feet were sinking into the lake.

If the pressure continued, Huang Tiankang would surely be pressed into the water.

By then, it would be the flood dragon’s home ground, and Huang Tiankang wouldn’t stand a chance!

“Urgh!!!”

Huang Tiankang’s muscles suddenly bulged, and with a surge of power, he heaved up the head of the flood dragon, flipping it over behind him!
