At the moment Ya Zi swallowed them, Fang Zhou immediately lunged forward to embrace Ling Xiaoyue, simultaneously swapping positions with Beichen.
In a flash, he and Ling Xiaoyue appeared at a spot relatively far from Ya Zi.
"Nicely done, student!"
Ling Xiaoyue reached out, pressed Fang Zhou's face, pushing him away, then raised her finger to point at Ya Zi: "Hehe, serves you right for eating recklessly."
With Ling Xiaoyue's gesture, the wine jug swallowed by Ya Zi suddenly expanded, stretching Ya Zi's mouth to its limits.
Ya Zi wanted to spit out the jug but got stuck by its own teeth.
It could only futilely claw at it, letting out painful, muffled sounds.
Fang Zhou hadn't expected this tactic, puzzled he asked: "Why didn't you wait for it to swallow it into the stomach and then expand it, wouldn't it burst its belly open?"
"Do you think it's as dumb as you? It's not stupid enough to swallow it down."
