Chapter 1023: Nian Beast

"This mortal really is a bit odd," the Nian Beast said playfully. Being naturally curious and lively Demon Beasts, they wouldn't otherwise mix in with the crowds and play every year.

With a roar, the Nian Beast lunged at Lu Yang, who swung his arm in a full circle and smashed it down. Since his physical body had improved, he found close combat quite amusing.

"I'm not afraid of you!"

The two wrestled together, with the Nian Beast overpowering Lu Yang and roaring in his face, dousing him with saliva.

"Three Flavored True Fire, ptui!"

Lu Yang had initially learned the Three Flavored True Fire to release it through his mouth and catch his enemy off guard, but he had never expected to use it on a Nian Beast.

The Nian Beast was singed by the Three Flavored True Fire, its mane shriveled and curled into tiny black dots. Seeing this, Lu Yang flipped over and gained the upper hand.
