Chapter 754 753: A Mosquito Kicking a Giant Dragon Away? It Definitely Has Nothing to Do With Gu Yuexi

"Boss, Big Y, run!!!"

As soon as Huang Mao finished speaking, he violently channeled all the Power of Space Law in his body.

A ripple of space flashed, teleporting Huo Lang and Big Y directly to the tunnel entrance behind them.

As for himself...

Having used all his power to activate the teleportation, he had no time to dodge.

"BANG—"

The sweeping dragon tail slammed squarely into Huang Mao.

He was flattened into a meat patty without even a chance to scream.

Huo Lang and Big Y staggered out of the spatial fluctuation.

Seeing Huang Mao's body, their eyes instantly reddened with overwhelming grief.

"Old Liu!!!"

Huo Lang roared and was about to charge back in.

"Boss, we can't let Huang Mao's sacrifice be in vain!"

"Hurry! As long as there's life, there's hope!"

Big Y wiped away his tears, grabbed Huo Lang in a death grip, and dragged him away.

Huo Lang clenched his fists, his eyes filled with hatred as he swore a silent oath.

'Old Liu, my brothers, rest assured. One day, I will return to avenge you!'

He suppressed his grief and steeled his resolve, preparing to escape with Big Y.

Just then.

Huo Lang noticed out of the corner of his eye that a mosquito had appeared beside him at some point.

To be precise,

where Huang Mao had teleported them, a White-striped Aedes Mosquito smaller than a palm was hovering.

'A mosquito... How did it get in here?'

Huo Lang froze for a moment, his mind filled with confusion.

But he knew this wasn't the time to dwell on it. Escaping was what mattered.

He pulled Big Y along, unleashed his full Power of Law, and prepared to rush for the tunnel they had entered through.

But they had still underestimated the Frost Bone Dragon's power and Speed.

They had barely taken a few steps.

when the Frost Bone Dragon's massive skeletal body appeared directly behind them with an eerie Speed that completely defied its size.

Its enormous tail rose high, unleashing the same familiar sweeping Attack, and slammed toward the two men, carrying a deathly chill.

It moved so fast that all they could see was an icy-blue afterimage.

Faced with the Frost Bone Dragon's Attack,

Huo Lang and Big Y fell into utter despair, their faces turning ashen.

So many Cultivators, including quite a few masters at the Half-Step Divinity Transformation Realm, couldn't withstand a single sweep from the Frost Bone Dragon.

What could the two of them possibly do to stop it?

It was a tragic waste of the time Huang Mao had bought for them with his life.

In the end, they still couldn't escape death.

"Sigh..."

Huo Lang sighed, gave up resisting, and prepared to welcome death.

Just then,

Huo Lang abruptly noticed out of the corner of his eye that the mosquito beside them...

Moved?!!

It extended a slender foreleg, holding it out in front of itself.

It looked like...

It seemed as if...

It was as though...

Perhaps...

it was going to block the Frost Bone Dragon's sweeping tail... with its leg???

'I must be seeing things. I have to be wrong.'

Huo Lang rubbed his eyes hard, assuming it was a pre-death hallucination.

He widened his eyes and stared intently at the mosquito.

This time, he saw it clearly.

That common White-striped Aedes Mosquito, which had appeared from who-knows-where, had really extended a foreleg, placing it right in the path of the sweeping tail.

'No way!'

'Buddy, what are you doing?'

'Are you actually trying to use that leg of yours, which is thinner than a strand of hair, to block the Frost Bone Dragon's tail, which is over ten meters long and thicker than an elephant's body?'

'This is off-the-charts ridiculous! It's beyond fucking belief!!!'

Huo Lang was completely dumbfounded.

And right before Huo Lang's shocked eyes,

the Frost Bone Dragon's tail landed squarely on Chu Sheng's mosquito leg.

With a thunderous BOOM, a shockwave erupted, sending ice shards flying everywhere.

The dragon tail, which should have crushed the mosquito to dust and flattened Huo Lang and his companion into pulp, abruptly came to a dead stop, frozen in mid-air.

It was like taking a heavy, spiked mace and swinging it with all your might at a single, thin strand of dried noodle.

You use every ounce of your strength.

And the noodle remains completely unharmed.

The intense visual contrast and shock left Huo Lang's mind completely blank. He couldn't comprehend it at all.

He stiffly turned his head to look at Big Y, his voice trembling.

"Did... did you see that?"

"Am I about to die? Am I hallucinating?"

Big Y's eyes were also wide as he swallowed hard.

"Don't ask me... I don't believe my own eyes either."

Hearing Big Y's reply, Huo Lang could finally be sure that he wasn't blind and his mind wasn't playing tricks on him.

The mosquito leg blocking the Frost Bone Dragon's tail wasn't a hallucination; it had actually happened.

'This mosquito... is too damn badass!'

Huo Lang gave a bitter laugh, his mind reeling in turmoil.

Just then, Big Y suddenly leaned in and whispered,

"Boss, is... is that the Beast Pet of that female cultivator?"

Huo Lang froze, not comprehending for a moment.

"Which Female Cultivator?"

"The one in white you went to invite to our team before we came in!"

Big Y reminded him.

"Didn't you say her Beast Pet was a mosquito and that it was super weak?"

"And that's why you rejected her request to join the team?"

Big Y's reminder made Huo Lang suddenly recall the incident.

Before entering the Land of Burial, he had indeed volunteered to invite Gu Yuexi to their team.

But she had shut him down with a single word, "Scram," leaving him completely rebuffed.

After returning to the team, to save face as the leader, he had told a lie.

He claimed Gu Yuexi was a Beast Tamer whose contracted Beast Pet was a mosquito, that it was pathetically weak, and that bringing her along would only slow them down.

Therefore, *he* had been the one to reject *her* request to join.

But the whole "Gu Yuexi's Beast Pet is a mosquito" thing was a complete fabrication!

He had just made it up on the spot to save face.

And now...

a ridiculously powerful mosquito had actually appeared before them.

'It can't really be Gu Yuexi's Beast Pet, can it?!'

But Huo Lang didn't even know if Gu Yuexi was a Beast Tamer!

He had just made it up!

Huo Lang didn't know how to explain, so he could only stammer,

"Prob... probably not."

"If she had such a powerful Beast Pet, she would definitely keep it by her side for her own safety."

"It makes no sense for them to be separated."

Huo Lang deliberately looked around.

"See? There's no one here besides this mosquito."

"That Female Cultivator wouldn't split up with her own Beast Pet, with one taking the left tunnel and the other taking the right, would she?"

"A Beast Tamer's main combat strength comes from their Beast Pet. Why would she do something so foolish!"

After hearing this, Big Y felt it made a lot of sense and nodded in agreement.

"Right! I was overthinking it."

"Then where did this mosquito come from? It's just too incredible!"

Meanwhile,

Chu Sheng looked at the Frost Bone Dragon's tail he had blocked and coolly uttered a single word.

"Scram!"

His voice wasn't loud, but it echoed clearly throughout the entire cavern.

The next second,

Chu Sheng's foreleg tensed slightly, and he gave it a light kick.

It seemed like a gentle tap, but it contained terrifying power.

"BANG—"

A dull, heavy thud resounded.

The massive Frost Bone Dragon was actually sent flying backward by this single kick.

Its ten-meter-plus skeletal body carved an arc through the air before crashing heavily into the distant stone wall.

Shattered rock flew everywhere.

The entire cavern shook violently from the impact.

Huo Lang and Big Y stood rooted to the spot, staring at the scene, once again dumbstruck.

'One kick...'

'...sent an Integration Realm Frost Bone Dragon flying???'

'What the f*ck...'

'...is this really a mosquito???'
