Zi Lingling said, "Since everyone agrees, then it's settled! Shangguan Yulin will lead the charge, Young Master Shen will be second, President Rong third, and Ninth Prince fourth, I'll bring up the rear!"
As her voice fell, the other four objected in unison, "No!"
Shen Liuxing quickly said, "Sister Zi first, I'll bring up the rear!"
Xuan Yuanxun also rushed to say, "I'll bring up the rear!"
Rong Guang, not to be outdone, said, "I'll bring up the rear!"
Shangguan Yulin said indignantly, "None of you are allowed to snatch this from me, I'll bring up the rear!"
The reason they were scrambling was that they all knew the one bringing up the rear faced the greatest danger.
A warm current flowed through Zi Lingling's heart.
"My build is small and my speed is faster than all of you, so I should bring up the rear!"
"No!"
Shen Liuxing vetoed again, "We are men, how can we let a woman protect us?"
"Right!"
"Right!"
"Right!"
Shangguan Yulin, Rong Guang, and Xuan Yuanxun echoed in unison.
Zi Lingling's expression darkened, and she pretended to be angry, "What's wrong with being a woman? Do you look down on women?"
She knew they didn't mean to discriminate against her.
But in the end, they were all risking their lives for her, so she should be the one to lead them out safely. If necessary, she would use the Law of Judgment again!
Although she still couldn't completely eliminate the after-effects of using the Law of Judgment, having broken through to the peak of the Great God realm, she shouldn't fall into a complete coma like before.
Shen Liuxing quickly explained, "Sister Zi, that's not what I meant. Look, you bear a heavy responsibility, not only to find the reincarnation of the other five guardians but also to find three drops of Supreme Tears of Emotion for Ye Lingyuan, so you cannot afford any mishaps!"
If possible, he wished he could be a guardian god and protect his Sister Zi behind him forever.
Xuan Yuanxun also said, "Boss Shen is right, you bear the heavy responsibility of saving all living beings, so you cannot afford any mishaps!"
Rong Guang also chimed in, "President, just listen to us, you go first."
Shangguan Yulin added, "Miss Zi, the person who scouts ahead first faces no small amount of danger. You also know, I'm clumsy and really not suited for the job of scouting, so you should go first!"
Looking at their sincere gazes, Zi Lingling knew that if she refused further, it would only waste their time.
"Alright! But you must keep up, and if you can avoid fighting, don't fight. If you can win with speed, don't stop, understand?"
"Mmm!"
Xuan Yuanxun, Rong Guang, Shangguan Yulin, and Shen Liuxing nodded simultaneously.
"Good! Let's go!"
Zi Lingling said, and charged towards the spatial beast first.
Behind her followed Shangguan Yulin, Rong Guang, Shen Liuxing, and Xuan Yuanxun in that order.
The five quickly arrived in front of the spatial beast.
Looking at the spatial beast, which was breathing evenly, the five cautiously approached its neck.
"I'll go first, you all keep close!"
After transmitting her voice, Zi Lingling leaped up, then with a few jumps, she landed on the spatial beast's neck.
The spatial beast gently shook its head but did not wake up.
Zi Lingling crouched down and slid off.
"Quick!"
As she landed, she transmitted to Shangguan Yulin, who was right behind her.
Shangguan Yulin didn't dally. With a few swift moves, he reached the gap on the spatial beast's neck.
He squeezed forward and arrived next to Zi Lingling.
The spatial beast's head shook again.
Its eyelids began to tremble.
"Quick, don't stop!"
Zi Lingling anxiously transmitted to Rong Guang.
"Mmm!"
Rong Guang dared not delay, and quickly climbed onto the spatial beast's neck, squeezing through.
The spatial beast's eyelids trembled even more violently.
Not good!
This was a sign of it waking up.
Zi Lingling quickly transmitted to Shen Liuxing, "Hurry up!"
Shen Liuxing no longer cared about the noise, and with a direct flip, he reached the spatial beast's neck.
"Ninth Uncle! Come up quickly!"
He transmitted anxiously.
Because the spatial beast's eyes had already opened a slit.
And Xuan Yuanxun's figure happened to fall within the spatial beast's line of sight.
The spatial beast froze, and its eyes opened completely.
It clearly hadn't expected anyone to be so bold as to come to its mouth.
"Roar, roar!"
The spatial beast let out two low growls and opened its huge mouth, biting towards Xuan Yuanxun.
"Come up!"
Shen Liuxing shouted anxiously.
Xuan Yuanxun naturally wouldn't wait to be eaten.
Just as the spatial beast's mouth was about to fall on him, he flickered and dodged its bite.
Then, he leaped up, and after a few more jumps, he stood beside Shen Liuxing.
The two exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Jump!"
Then, one after another, they slipped through the gap on the spatial beast's neck.
Seeing the prey slip away, the spatial beast became furious.
It suddenly straightened up, trapping Shen Liuxing and Xuan Yuanxun, who were not yet steady, under its belly.
"Not good!"
Zi Lingling, Shangguan Yulin, and Rong Guang were shocked.
A scalpel instantly appeared in Zi Lingling's hand, aimed at the spatial beast's belly, and she slashed down.
Her goal was to cut off that piece of flesh from its belly and rescue Shen Liuxing and Xuan Yuanxun.
However, she had underestimated the spatial beast's defense.
Her slash only left an indentation on the spatial beast's scales.
Of course, this was also because she hadn't dared to use her spiritual or law powers.
But in doing so, she not only failed to cut off the flesh but also angered the spatial beast with the pain.
The spatial beast roared, and with a clumsy lunge, its huge mouth bit down towards her.
Fortunately, the spatial beast's lunge allowed Shen Liuxing and Xuan Yuanxun to jump out.
Seeing that the two were safe, Zi Lingling did not tangle with the spatial beast. She activated her Phantom Dragon Steps and dodged the spatial beast's bite.
"Go!"
She shouted, and then kicked Rong Guang and Shangguan Yulin away.
However, due to this delay, Zi Lingling was targeted by the spatial beast again.
Annoyed at being toyed with by a mere human, the spatial beast became enraged.
Its giant mouth opened again, but this time it didn't bite down, instead releasing a powerful suction.
It wanted to suck the hateful human woman into its belly!
Having lived in the void all its life, the spatial beast possessed innate control over space.
Therefore, the suction it released was exactly the same as the suction of spatial turbulence.
Zi Lingling, who was using the Phantom Dragon Steps, lost her balance and her control.
Her body, under the force of the immense suction, rapidly flew towards the spatial beast's open mouth.
