A moment later, despite all their struggles, the Maw arrived in front of the Sharp Gourd Master and opened its throat wide, throwing out a dozen tendrils of tentacles to wrap around the Sharp Gourd Master and drag him in. As the Maw prepared to bite down, Di Tou finally managed to pass it, but alas, it was too late, the Sharp Gourd Master had been caught, and although Di Tou still had the sword in hand, at most he could cut one or two of the tentacles. There was no way for him to release the Sharp Gourd Master from the Maw's grasp.
Biting his lip, despite the poor situation, Di Tou was unwilling to give up. Swiping out with the sword, Di Tou struck down two tentacles, and while he did so, he also threw the sword directly into the Maw's mouth, attempting to block the path that the Sharp Gourd Master was being taken in in.
But alas, in this moment, the Maw couldn't even be bothered to deal with Di Tou, instead just ingesting the Sharp Gourd Master and swallowing him in one bite.
