BANG!
A colossal force blasted through the void, sending the King Realm expert flying. His offensive techniques crumbled to dust. As he scrambled to stabilize himself, his mind reeled with questions, for he had gotten a clear look at the perpetrator. It was the dog!
Who am I?! Where am I?! Why did this happen?!
Three questions surfaced in his mind almost simultaneously. Then—
WOOF!
A torrent of purple-black light erupted from Xiao Bai. The dog's form swelled in size as it lunged, sinking its teeth into the man's neck.
SPURT!
Blood vessels burst. More than half his neck was gone.
"Vile beast!" Enraged, the Martial Artist blasted Xiao Bai away with a single strike.
Xiao Bai shot off like a white speck, disappearing over the horizon.
The man clutched his neck, sitting up and frantically trying to stop the bleeding. His hands began to tremble, and his eyes widened in panic and terror before the light faded from them completely.
THUD!
