Dimensional Codex System: I'm really not a cultist!

Chapter 867: Chapter 866: Eating Dog Meat Hotpot in Winter is Very Nourishing

Before Fang Zheng’s words even fell, the air around them suddenly turned cold. Aoko Aozaki also stared coldly at the twin-tailed girl in front of her, her eyes filled with anger and killing intent.

”Very well, you dare to mention that name in front of me!”

”Hm? Can’t I mention it?”

Upon hearing Aoko’s words, Fang Zheng was taken aback. She hadn’t thought too much about it earlier. She only felt the name was familiar, and after thinking for a while, she remembered she had probably seen this character in the Boundary of the Sky animation. However, Fang Zheng hadn’t particularly delved into the Boundary of the Sky. The story there felt quite mysterious, giving her a headache, so she hadn’t gone too deep into it.

The reason Fang Zheng remembered this title was mainly due to sarcastic netizens. After all, every time Aoko appeared, the screen would be filled with barrages like ”Isn’t this the Red of Pain?” Seeing it so often, Fang Zheng eventually remembered it. So, when Yuzhu mentioned the name earlier, Fang Zheng instinctively thought of this title.

Looking at it now, it’s probably the same as not being able to call Mother Zi ”Old Purple Lady”?

But what can you do if I call you that?

Fang Zheng crossed her arms, looking at Aoko with leisure. Even Alaya and Gaia have to bow before me, let’s see what a magician like you can do to talk big in front of me.

However, Aoko, unaware of Fang Zheng’s inner thoughts at the moment, merely stared coldly at the twin-tailed girl before her, then said harshly.

”I once swore, so anyone who dares call me Red of Pain... must die!”

Saying this, Aoko swung her hand abruptly.

”Kill her, Beo!!”

”Awoo——!”

With Aoko’s words, the Golden Demon Wolf immediately howled, then leapt up, transforming into a golden lightning bolt heading straight for Fang Zheng. However, Fang Zheng just watched the approaching golden werewolf coldly, gripped the greatsword in her hand, and swung it hard!

Home run!!

”Awoo——!!”

With a dull collision sound and a scream, the next moment, the Golden Demon Wolf drew an arc through the sky and then crashed heavily to the ground. The Golden Demon Wolf had lost all its previous majesty, with a deep mark visible on its cheek. Fang Zheng’s strike had hit the Golden Demon Wolf’s nose squarely, almost knocking it unconscious!

”Awoo... awoo...!!”

The Golden Demon Wolf, in pain, rolled around on the ground, not caring about its fantasy species demeanor. Seeing this, both Yuzhu and Aoko were stunned.

Especially Yuzhu, she hadn’t seen when Fang Zheng knocked the Golden Demon Wolf flying with one sword because she was heavily injured and unconscious. So when she saw the Golden Demon Wolf attacking Fang Zheng, Yuzhu wanted to warn her. After all, the Golden Demon Wolf was a legendary fantasy species with immense power, immune to most magecraft.

Even Yuzhu’s ”Giant of the Bridge” couldn’t withstand a strike from the Golden Demon Wolf and was crushed like tofu. Facing Fang Zheng, she feared there would be no good outcome. For Yuzhu, the mysterious twin-tailed girl before her was likely an alchemist specializing in magic constructs, and her magical tools would probably be as fragile as paper against the Golden Demon Wolf.

But what surprised Yuzhu was that the other party had such strength! With just one strike, she knocked the Golden Demon Wolf flying?!

This... how is this possible?

Aoko was also dumbfounded, her mind going blank. Beo was her most prized familiar, her trump card for challenging here. By right, contemporary magicians should be powerless in front of Beo. Reality proved Aoko’s belief; Yuzhu wasn’t an ordinary magician but a rare witch mastering fairy tales and familiars existence. Even her summoned powerful familiars weren’t a match for Beo’s slap.

Before, Aoko thought Fang Zheng’s strike was luck, but now it seemed she truly had the ability to face a fantasy species head-on?

”Just a mere husky, dares to howl in front of me?”

At this moment, with a frosty tone, Fang Zheng dragged her greatsword, glaring coldly at the Golden Demon Wolf as she approached step by step.

But faced with Fang Zheng’s pressing approach, the Golden Demon Wolf didn’t attack again as Aoko expected. Instead, it clamped its tail tight, curled up, and shivered!

”Beo?”

Seeing this, Aoko couldn’t believe her eyes. That Golden Demon Wolf... was it scared? What was it afraid of?

Thinking of this, Aoko looked at the twin-tailed girl again, and only then did she realize that at some point, the girl’s eyes had turned into golden slitted pupils!

”Keep barking? Weren’t you barking happily just now?”

Gazing at the trembling Golden Demon Wolf, Fang Zheng sneered. The opponent was just an unweaned cub, while she was an adult dragon species. The difference was night and day. She hadn’t unleashed her Dragon Might just now, but now she had fully unleashed it. If this unweaned beast couldn’t be subdued, what was the point of being a Time Dragon?

”I heard eating dog meat hot pot in winter is highly nourishing...”

Fang Zheng swung her greatsword, sparks igniting, and then turned her gaze towards Yuzhu.

”What do you think? Should we chop it up for dinner tonight? You’re hurt, so you might need the nutrients. Do you prefer it in clear soup or spicy style?”

”This......”

Confronted with Fang Zheng’s inquiry, Yuzhu was at a loss. She never expected that, clearly having just been a life-and-death battlefield, the other party would now ask if she wanted to eat dog meat hot pot?

”Awoo... awoo...”

The Golden Demon Wolf, too, understood what Fang Zheng was saying, and whined pitifully, hoping for mercy and not to be turned into hot pot.

”This... maybe not...”

Hesitating for a moment, Yuzhu eventually nodded, not insisting on her opinion. She believed if she nodded, the red ponytail might really cut the Golden Demon Wolf and make it into a hot pot, but fantasy species were already rare in this world, and this was likely the last Golden Demon Wolf left...

”Fine, wolf meat isn’t as tasty as dog meat anyway, it’s tough and fishy...”

Seeing Yuzhu didn’t insist on her idea, Fang Zheng shrugged and turned to the Golden Demon Wolf.

”But we can’t just let it go like this... Oh, right!”

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng clapped her hands, then pulled out a red-and-white Spirit Ball from her pocket.

This thing had no use anyway, might as well use it to capture this husky!

”Get in there!”

[Red Ponytail used Spirit Ball!]

”Swish——!”

With Fang Zheng’s shout, the Spirit Ball instantly opened its mouth, and a flash of gold was seen. The next moment, the Golden Demon Wolf was sucked into the Spirit Ball, which fell to the ground, wobbled left, wobbled right, and then...

”Pop.”

The next moment, the Spirit Ball opened again, and the Golden Demon Wolf reappeared.

[Capture failed!]

”Failed?”

Fang Zheng raised an eyebrow, then looked again at the Golden Demon Wolf. She abruptly lifted her greatsword, seeing Fang Zheng’s action, the Golden Demon Wolf wailed again.

”Get in there! You know the consequences if you don’t!”
