My Avatar is Becoming the Ultimate BOSS-Chapter 747 - 391: Lin Xingshi x Little Nian Beast, Patricide, Reunion
"Roar—!"
The lion head raised high, letting out a clear, long howl from its throat, crashing toward the Year Beast Monarch with a fiery curtain.
"Ughhhh—!" The Year Beast Monarch roared, its body smashing countless stakes and deeply embedding itself into the ground, bleeding from head to toe, unable to rise again.
"Got one done."
With that, Lin Xingshi clapped her hands, once again allowing the Lion Shadow to return to the stakes.
She turned her head to look at the Celestial Wolf, raising an eyebrow.
"No wonder you can take such a beating, is it because of that helmet?" At this moment, Lin Xingshi's gaze focused on the "Demon Crown" atop the Celestial Wolf's head.
The Demon Crown, a treasure obtained by Bai Tanlang alongside the White Crow Travel Brigade in the Whale Royal Court, was the reason its strength could forcefully be elevated to Catastrophe Level.
Under Lin Xingshi's control, the crimson Lion Shadow suddenly lowered its body, with its four claws tightly gripping the top of the stakes, poised to spring, like a taut strong bow.
Through the flame-like dancing mane, the crown atop the Celestial Wolf's head, emitting a black gleam, could be seen clearly.
"Isn't this just snatching the greens?"
Lin Xingshi suddenly laughed.
The so-called "snatching the greens" is the most exciting part of the Lion Dance performance—
The Lion Dancer must manipulate the lion head to leap onto a high pole and pluck the "greens" hanging at the top—usually lettuce or a red envelope symbolizing good fortune.
This not only tests the lion's agility in leaping through the stake array but also requires precise targeting skills, a perfect blend of valor and dexterity.
And at this moment, the Demon Crown atop the Celestial Wolf's head appeared to Lin Xingshi just like the "greens" hanging high on the pole.
Lin Xingshi closed her eyes and took a deep breath; when she opened them again, a slight smile crossed her lips.
She kicked the stake with her toes, her fiery red braid dancing, as the Lion Shadow shot toward the demon wolf's head like an arrow leaving the string.
Next, the gigantic Lion Shadow twisted mid-air, the lion's mouth precisely gripping the edge of the Demon Crown. With a swing aided by momentum, it yanked downward!
"Rip—!"
The pitch-black crown parted from the Celestial Wolf's head with a sound. That crown, emitting a black gleam, was now gripped in the lion's mouth, the dark light flickering within the crimson Lion Shadow's maw.
At this moment, Lin Xingshi, holding this trophy, lightly landed back atop the stakes, as naturally as in the countless times during training when she gripped a swaying ball with the lion's head.
"Still not giving up?" Lin Xingshi said, "You've completely lost your chances."
With that, she controlled the Lion Shadow to spit the Demon Crown onto the ground far away.
In this moment, the Celestial Wolf's imposing aura dramatically diminished, it whimpered and collapsed onto the ground, its muscles and claws rapidly atrophying, its pupils a dull grey.
And the Year Beast Monarch was already trapped in the pit, gasping heavily, unable to struggle anymore.
Lin Xingshi silently looked at the Year Beast Monarch, "Ten years ago, you killed my parents, I allowed you to live this long... Now killing you isn't excessive, is it?"
With that, her gaze suddenly turned cold,
Just as she was about to control the Lion Shadow to end the Monarch's life, she suddenly saw a cyan snake creature lunging at her, like a moth to a flame, shooting toward the Lion Shadow.
Lin Xingshi waved her right arm effortlessly, the Lion Shadow roared and turned, swatting out its right paw to catch the snake, and flames instantly engulfed its entire body.
The Cyan Snake Demon roared, face contorted, every scale being rapidly corroded by scarlet flames. She squinted her icy blue eyes, looking at the Year Beast Monarch, seeming to want to say something, but no sound came out.
"Cyan Snake..."
The Year Beast Monarch was startled, widening its eyes to look at the Cyan Snake caught in the Lion Shadow's paw.
Lin Xingshi paused for a moment, "Why bother?"
At this moment, she slightly loosened her strength, and the Cyan Snake Demon was flung dozens of meters away by the Lion Shadow's palm. Its charred body broke through countless grass and wood, finally embedding into the overturned soil.
"It's just the same, isn't it?"
She muttered softly, slowly maneuvering the Lion Shadow to step on the stakes, approaching the Year Beast Monarch step by step. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
"When you killed my parents, did they feel this hopeless too?" she asked.
The Year Beast Monarch roared silently. In the distance, the Celestial Wolf had transformed into a human form, collapsed in a pool of blood-tinged steam. The world was silent at this moment.
It glanced at the Cyan Snake's corpse, then at Bai Tanlang, then finally at the distant collapsed Rainbow Horse Demon, the demon flame atop its head slowly dimming.
After a moment, the Monarch lowered its head.
"So, I lost...," it croaked, "Indeed, I should have admitted defeat long ago, what was I struggling for."
Lin Xingshi stood atop the stake with arms crossed, looking down at it.
She remained silent, with no trace of pity in her eyes.
Lin Xingshi didn't know what she was hesitating about, clearly, the enemy who had killed her parents was before her. After a while of silence, she slowly controlled the Lion Shadow to sway its body, enveloped in roaring flames.
Yet, at this moment, from the cliffs of Hai Fan Mountain in the distance, a purplish-red, enchanting silhouette suddenly descended from the sky.
Lin Xingshi was briefly stunned, then slowly lifted her head. At this moment, reflected in her clear pupils, a massive purplish-red lion emerged against the moonlight, its roar shattering the firmament.
Accompanied by a rampant sea breeze, the enchanting silhouette descended like a blossoming mandala flower under the night moon.
"Release my father—!"
The Little Nian Beast, accompanied by purple flames, attacked while growling lowly.
Lin Xingshi watched this meteor-like descending giant shadow, suddenly frozen in place. After a moment, her lips moved slightly, uttering a name both unfamiliar and familiar:
"Xiao Nian?"
