Xue Jing was about to pursue when a pale red mist came towards him, the intense heat forcing him to squint involuntarily, his hand shielding his eyes.
"Is this... steam?"
Before he could react further, a foot wrapped in red streams of air kicked towards his chest from the mist.
Xue Jing's reaction speed was extremely fast; he dodged to the side while grabbing the ankle with both hands.
Then his gaze hardened.
"Golden Scales Transformation!"
As Xue Jing held Ning Yuantai's foot, he initiated the Golden Scales Transformation, rapidly spinning in place.
This move was originally purely for defense, using high-speed spinning and Golden Scale Skin to fend off all enemy attacks.
But at this moment, using it for offense also proved uniquely effective.
"Whoo whoo whoo—"
Round and round he went, gradually picking up speed, spinning like a giant top with Ning Yuantai's foot in his grasp, the swirling currents pulling in surrounding mud and weeds, slowly forming a small tornado.
