At the moment Ya Zi swallowed them, Fang Zhou immediately lunged forward to embrace Ling Xiaoyue, simultaneously swapping positions with Beichen.

In a flash, he and Ling Xiaoyue appeared at a spot relatively far from Ya Zi.

"Nicely done, student!"

Ling Xiaoyue reached out, pressed Fang Zhou's face, pushing him away, then raised her finger to point at Ya Zi: "Hehe, serves you right for eating recklessly."

With Ling Xiaoyue's gesture, the wine jug swallowed by Ya Zi suddenly expanded, stretching Ya Zi's mouth to its limits.

Ya Zi wanted to spit out the jug but got stuck by its own teeth.

It could only futilely claw at it, letting out painful, muffled sounds.

Fang Zhou hadn't expected this tactic, puzzled he asked: "Why didn't you wait for it to swallow it into the stomach and then expand it, wouldn't it burst its belly open?"

"Do you think it's as dumb as you? It's not stupid enough to swallow it down."

Maintaining the jug's size, Ling Xiaoyue called to Fang Zhou: "This is a great chance to strike the falling dog, act quickly."

Indeed, it was a good opportunity; Ya Zi was already on the verge of rolling around from the jug's pressure.

But Fang Zhou felt anxious; his most powerful spells now were the Nuclear Leveling Technique and Space Slash, the former was too risky, and fire attacks might have average effect on Ya Zi.

The Space Slash had just been used and was still cooling down.

The Celestial Stars Sword had proven to lack power; the only usable was the Moon Immortal after upgrading from Moon in Water.

But this move seemed to affect emotions, making one coldly rational.

Ling Xiaoyue kept urging, and Fang Zhou had no choice but to use Moon Immortal.

As the spell operated, an illusory bright moon appeared in the sky, clearer than in Moon in Water, its luminous light piercing the fiery clouds.

Fang Zhou was bathed in moonlight, appearing noble and elegant, while his rationality swiftly turned cold.

Fang Zhou didn't notice the moonlight forming a phantom female face on his surface, resembling a moon goddess descending.

This face was exactly the same as Ling Xiaoyue's.

"Eh?"

Ling Xiaoyue exclaimed as she saw her own face manifest on Fang Zhou's face.

She wasn't surprised by its appearance; those cultivating this spell always conjured her eventually.

She was surprised at how quickly Fang Zhou had progressed from Moon in Water to Moon Immortal.

With the spell's deepening, it seemed an invisible line connected Fang Zhou and Ling Xiaoyue.

Their minds were already in sync, now Moon Immortal strengthened their bond.

Fang Zhou pushed Moon Immortal to its limit, a beam of moonlight descended from the sky, striking Ya Zi, trying to expel the wine jug.

Ya Zi's massive body was repelled by the moonlight, instinctively clawed at the ground, carving furrows.

The moonlight tore off Ya Zi's red scale armor, leaving blood and flesh mangled, hot blood spurting.

This moonlight was like a sharp weapon, penetrating Ya Zi's body, nearly impaling it.

Ya Zi finally was completely enraged.

It spewed dragon fire again, burning the stuck wine jug.

The jug was Ling Xiaoyue's magic treasure, resisting the dragon fire's burning and heat, but couldn't withstand the impact, being expelled from Ya Zi's mouth.

Ya Zi turned, dragon fire collided with moonlight, repelling it, transforming into a sky-reaching fire pillar, shattering the night mirror hanging in the sky.

"Roar!"

Ya Zi let out a dragon roar, not only stirring sound waves but also wielding strong intimidating power.

"It's getting serious!"

Ling Xiaoyue's expression turned rarely serious, seeing no response from her student, turned to see Fang Zhou still immersed in Moon Immortal.

Fang Zhou cast a cold eye at Ling Xiaoyue, aura aloof like the moon.

Especially on his face, another female face emerged, faintly radiant like moonlight, with an unassailable noble notion.

Anyone else might dread this regal phantom, yet Ling Xiaoyue slapped it away.

The phantom was herself, hitting herself wasn't a problem.

The phantom shattered, Fang Zhou withdrew from Moon Immortal's state.

"This dog is playing for real now."

Ling Xiaoyue repeated, eyes fixed on Ya Zi: "Be careful."

The serious Ling Xiaoyue was unfamiliar to Fang Zhou, he turned to Ya Zi, seeing the dragon child ablaze, dragon roar infused with frightening force.

This reminded Fang Zhou of the fire dragon sealed in molten lava seen at Iron Sword Mountain, akin to dragon power's spiritual oppression.

Fang Zhou was naturally unaffected now, yet Ya Zi was thoroughly enraged.

It leaped, flames burning more fiercely, and detached to spread in the air, forming a dazzling sea of fire.

"Keep a distance!"

Ling Xiaoyue reminded, backing explosively away.

Fang Zhou had grown enough not needing his teacher's care.

Fang Zhou retreated too, slyly separating from Ling Xiaoyue, flying another direction.

Sure enough, Ya Zi chased Ling Xiaoyue, hatred locked onto her.

Fang Zhou hadn't yet relished the schadenfreude when from Ya Zi's blazing created sea of fire, another Ya Zi constructed from flames charged at him.

Ya Zi always retaliated, evidently intent on not sparing either teacher or student.

Fang Zhou cursed inwardly, using Sword Shadow and Celestial Stars Sword, casting a sword curtain at the dragon child.

The Ya Zi of pure flame disregarded such attacks, rushing for Fang Zhou, its speed incredible.

It drove surrounding flames, forming an extensive fire sea, encircling Fang Zhou from both sides, blocking escape routes.

Fang Zhou could only switch places with Beichen and summon Beichen back, causing Ya Zi to miss.

Ya Zi's divine sense had long locked on Fang Zhou, turning with flames, attacking anew.

The flames consumed the space, forming an expansive fire sea, shrinking evasion space.

This time, Fang Zhou stood firm, Beichen blocking his front, drawing twin swords from the back.

Space Slash had finally cooled down, Beichen swung swords, slashing an intersecting cross strike.

The strike tore through space, creating space cracks, directly hitting the advancing Ya Zi.

Like slicing tofu, cracks easily penetrated Ya Zi's head, dividing its body into numerous fragmented, irregular pieces.
