Chapter 1040: I Saw Your Head Being Chopped Off

Seeing Great Red back down, Lingyun had no intention of continuing the fight.

After all, if they kept fighting and accidentally got carried away, shattering the Dimensional Gap, there was no telling what kind of changes that would cause. Moreover, the only reason he had attacked Great Red was because Great Red had dragged him into the Dimensional Gap without any warning.

After both sides ceased their attacks, the Dimensional Gap suddenly fell into silence.

"Great Red, is there something you wanted by pulling me into the Dimensional Gap?" Lingyun asked, looking at Great Red.

"Well, it's just that I sensed the aura of a powerful member of my own kind in this world, so I simply wanted to meet them!" Great Red said in a muffled voice.

"Is that so? To think that's the case, that really is interesting!" Lingyun's gaze fell upon Great Red once more, seemingly considering where it would be best to strike.

"Hey, hey, my kin, what kind of look is that?" Feeling the deep malice in Lingyun's eyes, Great Red's body shuddered violently, and the scales on her body seemed to stand on end in an instant.

Suddenly, Great Red's gaze fell upon Liuli and the others nearby, and a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes.

Subsequently, a burst of crimson light surged from Great Red's body, instantly engulfing her form. Within this crimson light, Great Red's figure continuously shrank, and in the end, it actually took on a human shape.

When the light fully receded into the human form, a mature woman with crimson hair appeared before everyone. She was draped in a crimson robe, and the two towering mounds on her chest pushed out a breathtaking curve.

"Great Red?" Seeing the person who appeared before her, Ophis couldn't help but be slightly stunned, then she puffed out her cheeks.

She felt that the other party seemed to crush her in many aspects, but Ophis's simple personality couldn't figure out exactly where she was being crushed for the moment; she just felt intuitively that she didn't like Great Red's current state.

"Hmm, why did you turn into this appearance?" Looking at Great Red, who had transformed into a human, Lingyun couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

"Because whether it is Ophis or you, my kin, both appear in this form. I thought that if I also appeared in this form, perhaps our communication would be more appropriate!" Great Red moved her body slightly, clearly still somewhat unaccustomed to her current posture.

Lingyun looked at the Great Red before him, then looked at Ophis, who had reached out and hugged him at some unknown moment, and Lingyun suddenly let out a soft chuckle.

"Ophis, I suddenly know why you lost!"

"Kin, do you know the root of my failure?" Hearing Lingyun's words, Ophis looked toward him with some curiosity.

"The reason you lost is that the most important representative color of this world is red, and as the Infinite Dragon God, you are not red!" Lingyun said softly.

In the world of High School DxD, the greatest trump card of the male protagonist, Hyoudou Issei, is the Boosted Gear of the Red Dragon Emperor, and when the female protagonist, Rias Gremory, first met Hyoudou Issei, her first impression was also that head of red hair. Not to mention the True Red Dragon God Emperor, who stands at the pinnacle of this world, who is also red. Under these circumstances, Ophis seems completely unable to gain the upper hand.

"Ugh, strange and weird logic!" Ophis couldn't help but puff out her cheeks slightly.

"Is the representative color of this world red? That really is an interesting deduction!" Great Red said with a light laugh.

"Don't be happy too soon, Great Red! I saw some rather interesting images earlier!" Lingyun's gaze landed on Great Red, a hint of playfulness flashing in his eyes.

Feeling Lingyun's gaze, Great Red felt her scalp tingle for some reason. Although she didn't know exactly what images Lingyun had seen, she could tell from his tone that they were definitely not good ones.

"What interesting images?" Ophis tugged at Lingyun's clothes, seemingly wanting to attract his attention.

"I saw Great Red's head being chopped off by someone, body and head separated; she died quite miserably!" Lingyun said calmly.

When Lingyun said this, Great Red's body couldn't help but tremble slightly. In that instant, she felt her neck go cold, as if her head had truly been chopped off.

Ophis also couldn't help but open her mouth slightly, her eyes filled with disbelief. If there was anyone who understood Great Red's strength most profoundly in this world, it had to be Ophis. Having fought with Great Red for so long, she naturally had a deep understanding of the other party's strength. But now Lingyun was actually saying that someone had chopped off Great Red's head—was this a joke? Yet, there wasn't a hint of joking in Lingyun's tone, which meant that someone had really chopped off Great Red's head?

"The person who chopped off my head shouldn't be an existence from this world, right!" Great Red's tone was very certain.

As the most powerful existence in this world, Great Red believed that even if the God of the Bible were still alive, he would absolutely not possess the ability to chop off her head. In that case, the enemy could only be from other worlds.

"For this world, it is indeed another world!" Lingyun nodded.

"A dangerous existence from another world? If that's really the case, then that's a bit troublesome!" Great Red's brow couldn't help but furrow slightly.

As an existence flying within the Dimensional Gap, Great Red naturally had a certain understanding of other worlds. If there existed an existence in another world capable of chopping off her head, then if this guy set his sights on this world, this world would be in danger.

However, Great Red's gaze suddenly fell upon Lingyun: "You are also an existence from another world, right! I think this world shouldn't be able to give birth to a powerful existence like you!"

"That's right." Regarding Great Red's words, Lingyun had no intention of denying it.

"A kin from another world? I suddenly have a huge interest in your original world now!" Great Red's dragon pupils stared at Lingyun, a curious expression appearing on her face.

Although she didn't know exactly what Lingyun's strength was, she could be certain that if Lingyun went all out, she would definitely not be his match!

Facing Great Red's doubt, Lingyun just smiled and did not follow up on Great Red's lead.
