Sunxiao swiftly transformed into his beast form, his long tail sweeping out to coil around Qiao Xixi.
Sangze spun around and grabbed Xiya, dodging an attack that lunged from the darkness.
The moment they dodged, Qiao Xixi felt a violent disturbance in the water.
Qiao Xixi quickly took out a glowing pearl and threw it. By its light, they saw a massive Sea Eel Beast swimming their way.
"It's a Sea Eel Beast." Xiya's face paled. She had never seen a Sea Eel Beast so large.
In terms of size, the Sea Eel Beast was nearly as big as Sunxiao in his beast form.
"Sangze, take care of Xixi and the others."
Sunxiao passed Qiao Xixi into Sangze's arms, then turned and broke through Xiya's Water Avoidance barrier. He transformed into his beast form to confront the Sea Eel Beast head-on.
"Sunxiao, be careful!"
Sunxiao's massive, serpentine body quickly vanished from sight. Qiao Xixi could only sense the currents around her growing more and more turbulent, but she couldn't see a thing.
