After severely wounding the Blue-Flag Whale again, Liu Changxu continued unleashing Heavy Strikes with the Red Lotus World-Destroying Seal, looking determined not to stop until he killed it.
Gravely wounded, the Blue-Flag Whale could no longer spare a thought for anything else. It wanted only to escape. Its enormous body moved astonishingly fast through the sea, and a few surging leaps carried it beyond the Red Lotus World-Destroying Seal's attack range.
