Chapter 1245: Chapter 1246: Desperation

Song Xiaodong accurately planted both feet on that piece of bark, although the bark slightly sank downward, it imdiately gave a strong counterforce and quickly slid forward.

This made Song Xiaodong overjoyed instantly; such a feeling was enough to indicate that the water below was very shallow, just a thin layer, which was most conducive to this kind of sliding.

Before landing, Song Xiaodong conveniently tore off a long section of branches, and hurriedly removed the leaves, turning it into a pole over two ters long, fiercely pushed it against the ground, accelerating the bark under his feet even more as it charged forward.

At this mont, Qingluan landed on the ground with both feet, then sprinted with full force, chasing after Song Xiaodong.

“Ahaha, you want to catch up with , then you’ll have to wait!” Song Xiaodong glanced back and felt instantly relieved.

Although Qingluan’s speed was exceptionally fast, the wetland under her feet was certainly not easy to gain traction on, so her speed was noticeably slower compared to normal ground. Relying on swift sliding, the distance between them not only didn’t close but tended to get further apart.

Qingluan was tense with frustration; she was indeed annoyed beyond asure. Clearly stronger than Song Xiaodong, killing him should have been effortless, but this fellow was full of cunning tricks; unable to catch him in the forest, now even on level ground, she was still chasing in vain.

While sprinting, Qingluan shouted, “Song Xiaodong, as the Dragon Gate Young Master, you dare not fight honorably, relying on this petty cunning to flee. With a Young Master like you, Dragon Gate is truly disgraced. How do you expect to lead Dragon Gate in the future?”

Song Xiaodong forcefully pushed the pole, then laughed loudly, saying, “You’re trying to taunt ? That won’t work. But you might consider using a Beauty Trap, if you strip naked, maybe I’ll just stop right away.”

“I really can’t believe Dragon Gate has a Young Master like you, a disgrace to Dragon Gate.”

“You don’t need to think about provoking ; without life, there’s nothing at all. No matter what, today you can’t kill .”

While arguing, one fled, one chased, soon reaching the center of this open area.

“Puff!” Song Xiaodong once again pushed the branch against the ground, but unexpectedly hit air, the branch directly plunged over half a ter deep.

Simultaneously, the bark under his feet sank, the speed reduced noticeably.

“Damn, the water is deep here.” Song Xiaodong was shocked, deep water ant the bark absorbed more water, resistance increased, and the bark’s buoyancy wasn’t enough to support Song Xiaodong, quickly sinking into the water.

Song Xiaodong, already prepared, leveraging the bark’s last buoyancy, fiercely leaped forward, hoping the water ahead would be deeper, perhaps Qingluan couldn’t swim, then she’d have no way to deal with him.

Behind him, Qingluan was delighted, leaping through the air, shouted while airborne, “Let’s see where else you can run.”

This leap, spanning over ten ters, landed directly above Song Xiaodong’s head.

Song Xiaodong was terrified, not expecting Qingluan’s leap to be so powerful, escaping was no longer feasible.

With a fierce kick, a large splash rose, several silver needles were flicked out, this was Song Xiaodong’s final life-saving skill, hoping to be effective in one strike.

Then, his body lost balance, falling into the water.

Qingluan was only two ters away from Song Xiaodong, the next mont, her palm would rcilessly strike Song Xiaodong.

At this ti, a burst of water suddenly splashed over, blocking her view montarily, but completely ignoring this splash, with her True Qi, how could she be bothered by such water splashes.

Directly treading through the splash.

Song Xiaodong was suddenly overjoyed, his silver needles were about to work.

But suddenly, Qingluan felt an alarm, an extre sense of danger mixed within the splash.

She imdiately realized sothing was added, a glance revealed points of cold gleam inside.

Even upon discovery, it was already impossible for Qingluan to evade, and she felt these glints were extraordinary, her Protective True Qi couldn’t block them.

With hands moving like flowers, Qingluan flicked her fingers repeatedly, directly bouncing away the several silver needles.

Although it seed simple, Qingluan couldn’t help but tremble inside, because although the silver needles looked small, they carried a unique vigor, like armor-piercing bullets, with her formidable strength, almost piercing through her True Qi.

Seeing Qingluan flick away the silver needles, Song Xiaodong felt a wave of frustration, this was his final card, even this tactic failed, now stuck in the water, he guessed it might indeed be the end here.

Although Qingluan flicked away the silver needles, her True Qi wasn’t unyielding, rushing towards Song Xiaodong fell slightly short, directly dropping into the water, the palm originally directed at Song Xiaodong also missed.

However, now the distance between them was more than a ter, Qingluan rely needed to stretch her hand to strike Song Xiaodong.

“Run now, go on, keep running?” Qingluan glared at Song Xiaodong in frustration, yet didn’t imdiately strike.

Song Xiaodong chuckled, saying, “Can’t run, so won’t run.”

“Use every skill you have, I want to see how you continue escaping my pursuit.” Qingluan’s tone carried mockery, throughout today’s chase, she was certainly infuriated.

Song Xiaodong’s mind raced, but in such circumstances, there wasn’t anything that could bridge the gap in strength, this water wasn’t deep at all, feet touching the muddy bottom, trying water concealnt was completely unfeasible.

“No moves left? Then it’s ti for you to die.” Qingluan sneered, slowly raising her palm.

Song Xiaodong’s expression suddenly turned strange, which made Qingluan frown again, wary of Song Xiaodong, saying, “Still plotting so trick?”

“Trick? Haha, now tricks are useless.” Song Xiaodong laughed self-mockingly.

“You indeed have so self-awareness.” Qingluan sneered again.

Song Xiaodong looked at Qingluan, suddenly laughed heartily, saying, “Early or late, dying is the sa, at least luring a woman like you down with , that’s not too bad.”

“Not giving up?” Qingluan sneered, lifted her hand and struck towards Song Xiaodong.
