Substitute Bride Phoenix, The Tyrant's Pampered Demon Empress

Chapter 257: Struck By Lightning And Split In Two

The sun was just about to set, so the mountain tops were painted in red.

However, there was a blanket of ashy-blue clouds over Liu Rushuang.

As time went by, the cloud bank turned even more grey to the point where they looked black.

All of a sudden, raindrops fell from the skies and hit their bodies.

The expressions on everyone’s faces turned serious.

“Little Green Snake, you have to keep it together!” Little White Flower’s skin now looked evidently creased.

Kaaaa-chaaaak...

Suddenly, bolts of lightning which were two fingers thick, fell from the pitch-black skies and struck the half dragon snake.

Thump!

A giant hole bore into the half dragon snake, proving just how powerful the bolt of lightning was.

“Half dragon snake! Get up!” Little White Flower cried anxiously.

“Hiiiiisssss...”

The half dragon snake repeatedly let out a feeble cry and tried to get up. However, every time it tried, it would fall into the earth again.

Little White Flower saw the half dragon snake’s back was covered in blood and sobbed anxiously.

“Wahhh wahhh... Big sis, what are we going to do? Half dragon snake won’t get up.”

Liu Rushuang tightly furrowed her brows and looked up at the thick, dark skies and down then back down at her hands. She didn’t know if she could...

Despite wanting to vomit and collapse from nausea, Lin Ye, Mo Ye, and Mei Ye forced themselves to endure it.

“Let’s go down first,” said Liu Rushuang who then flew off of the half dragon snake’s head and stood several feet away.

The others also jumped off.

Liu Rushuang saw Little White Flower’s face had crumpled and cried in shock, “Little White Flower, what’s wrong?”

Little White Flower pulled a fragile smile. “Big sis, I’m fine. I’ll be fine after I drink some water later.”

Liu Rushuang stroked Little White Flower’s hair, which had turned back to black, and forced a smile.

Little White Flower looked up at Liu Rushuang and smiled back.

Kaaaa-laaaapp... Zzzzz...

Everyone heard the thunderous clap and all looked up at the sky.

The sky was painted pitch-black and the cloud bank above the half dragon snake suddenly tore open and lit up. Then, a winding, fist-sized bolt of lightning came crashing down and broke in two thick bolts and dozens of thinner bolts.

“Big sis, what should we do? Little Green Snake must have not been able to endure a thick bolt of lightning. What should we do?” Little White Flower jumped anxiously.

Liu Rushuang’s eyes drooped. She didn’t know what to do either...

Ze, where are you?

Bang!

Lightning violently struck the half dragon snake’s body, causing it to immediately cough up blood in a frenzy and unleash a terrifying odor from the bloody flesh.

Hiiiissss...

The half dragon snake laid feebly sprawled out on the ground.

“Little Green Snake, no matter how much it hurts, you can’t give up. As long as you have dragon scales, you won’t have to worry about being struck by lightning ever again,” reassured Little White Flower.

*Hiiiissss...* The half dragon snake cried woefully.

“Little Green Snake, you can definitely keep it together until your dragon scales come out. I believe in you.”

Liu Rushuang looked at the half dragon snake, sprawled out on the ground and noted that it hadn’t an ounce of a dragon’s grandeur. She subtly pursed her lips in disbelief that the half dragon snake could hang in there at all.

*Klop klop klop...” Liu Rushuang heard the sound of a galloping horse and her ears twitched. Then, she turned her head to see Han Moze riding a horse towards her in a fashion that looking handsome beyond compare.

Everyone’s eyes lit up. The world’s strongest man was here, so perhaps the half dragon snake could be saved!

Han Moze vaguely saw Liu Rushuang’s silhouette, and abruptly pulled on the reins to speed up.

The dozens of shadow guards also sped up. To their complete surprise, they saw the empress. Only a day had passed and yet they meet again.
