The colossal wave swept through, leaving the Nine-Aspect Deer as feeble as a leaf before the flood, instantly caught by the wave and flung into the raging torrents.
Eyes, nose, ears—all were flooded with water.
Fear of water is an instinct for most land creatures.
The Nine-Aspect Deer was no exception, opening its mouth wide in panic to breathe, only to choke harshly on several mouthfuls of water.
In the midst of the chaos, a dark shadow, like a submarine, struck from the undercurrent.
The Nine-Aspect Deer's head was clamped firmly in a massive jaw.
Taotie clamped onto it and ruthlessly flung it.
Intense pain made the Nine-Aspect Deer wail.
Only its wails were drowned out inside Taotie's vast maw.
The Nine-Aspect Deer tried to struggle, but its strength was like that of a child compared to an adult when facing Taotie.
Taotie bit down on its head and gave a forceful shake.
The Nine-Aspect Deer was then dragged into the waves.
