Jiangdong Jian gritted his teeth. He could not fail. This was his first time accompanying the Ninth Princess into battle, and countless people in the empire were watching. If he failed, regardless of the reason, he would have no face to ask Shang Huang for her hand for the time being. If he waited any longer, who knew what might happen.
Thinking this, his attacks grew increasingly fierce. Earlier, he had still been wary of Fei Yan's Lanshan and coordinated with him. Now, there was only the Prison Dragon in his eyes. He unleashed the mech's full potential, frightening Fei Yan into retreating hastily for fear of being caught in the crossfire.
The Prison Dragon repeatedly raised its sharp claws to meet his attacks, and enormous collisions rang out across the starry sky.
In the distance, Lu Yin knew the time was about right. Judging from the situation, the Infinite Empire had begun to hesitate. He could not let them abandon this space-time. It was time to reclaim the Sixth Continent.
The Divine Sword suddenly brought down a slash. Clang! A thunderous boom rang out. The Prison Dragon retreated, letting out a low growl.
Jiangdong Jian panted heavily, sweat dripping continuously. Where had this creature gotten such powerful defensive abilities?
Shang Cheng exchanged another glance with Shang An'an. "We should retreat for now and discuss this further."
Jiangdong Jian shouted, "Wait. I still have one move left. If I still can't deal with it, we'll retreat."
Shang An'an advised, "Don't force yourself. The powerful creatures encountered by the empire are far from limited to this one. There have also been cases where they abandoned a campaign. The universe is vast, and strange creatures are boundless."
Jiangdong Jian insisted, "I have one move left. Just one."
Shang Cheng sighed with emotion.
