“Besides, I’ve told you this more than once. Stop it with the belief that we stole his blessings. We were merely retrieving what belongs to us!”
“It is he who is the thief!”
“A thief that was created due to a mistake of the heavens!”
The young lady in purple called Wu Yao shot him a calm look as she responded, “The crippled dragon you speak of has quelled king Qi’s rebellion a month ago. Even the six Alpha-Origin experts you secretly dispatched as support ultimately lost.”
“Moreover, that so-called crippled dragon personally slew the Alpha-Origin Wang Chaotian in battle.”
Wu Huang let out an icy chuckle. “From the information I’ve obtained, that crippled dragon only has the strength of the Qi Nourishing stage, and had relied on the power of a silver armor like object to kill Wang Chaotian. You and I should clearly understand that there will definitely be consequences after relying on such an external power, such power cannot be used so easily. Therefore, that crippled dragon probably had no choice but to resort to such a measure.”
“Who knows whether he died due to the repercussions.”
“As for slaying Wang Chaotian…” The corners of Wu Huang’s mouth lifted in a mocking manner as he continued, “A battle achievement that relies on an external power does not enter my eyes.”
The young lady in purple frowned slightly. “Wu Huang, there will eventually come a day where you will lose because of your pride and arrogance.”
Wu Huang calmly said, “Because I have that right.”
The young lady in purple slowly shook her head, her interest waning. She had already warned Wu Huang. If he still persisted in his attitude, she could not be bothered to speak any further on this matter.
Upon seeing this, Wu Huang’s expression softened as he quietly said, “Relax, after I obtain the greatest gift of the Saint Remains Domain, I will think of a way to completely eliminate the Great Zhou Empire so as to prevent any potential trouble in the future.”
Wu Yao did not comment. She waved her small hand and said, “Go make your preparations. I will also be leaving after tomorrow. Who knows when we will next meet.”
Wu Huang stared at her, passionate feelings flowing within the depths of his eyes as he said, “Wu Yao, I will show you that I am the true dragon. Only you and I are the most compatible in this world.”
The moment he finished speaking, he decisively turned around with a wave of his sleeves and left.
Wu Yao’s gaze lingered in the direction he had left in, not even the slightest change in her eyes. In the end, she turned her head and looked towards a certain distant place.
“Sacred dragon of the Zhou clan…”
“Although I’ve borrowed your blessings, this is a world where the strong prey on the weak. Never mind if you are crippled here, but if you are truly able to climb back up…”
The tip of Wu Yao’s soft tongue slowly emerged and licked the rosy lips of her little mouth as a bewitching light appeared within her eyes.
“Then I… will devour you again!”
...
The next day.
Before the main hall of the Great Wu royal palace.
Numerous ministers and military leaders were looking upwards where red Genesis Qi was soaring into the sky from a tall pavillion. The Genesis Qi was akin to a dazzling sun and gave off extremely hot undulations, so hot that even the surrounding air had started to distort due to the burning heat.
“We respectfully send off the crown prince!”
“We will be praying for our crown prince’s triumphant return!”
Many voices buzzed from below.
Swish!
Red Genesis Qi whizzed forth like a cloud of fire. A tall figure stood atop the fire cloud with his hands behind his back, disdain on his face. He ignored the crowd that had come to send him off and instead cast his gaze towards a certain building deep within the palace.
“Wu Yao, I will prove to you who exactly is the true dragon.”
He withdrew his gaze moments later. Without any further hesitation, he disappeared into the horizon under the watching gazes of the crowd.
...
Sword Empire.
Below a lonely peak shaped like a sword.
A figure walked out from within the mountain. As he approached, one would discover that it was a young man in ash colored robes. However, a black cloth had been wrapped around his eyes.
On his back was a plain looking black sword that had no tip. A faint but astonishing sword Qi spread from it. Wherever he passed, the rocks on the ground would silently split apart, the interior of the cut pieces smooth as a mirror.
He raised his head as the eyes concealed by the black cloth were seemingly cast towards the distance.
“Saint Remains Domain…”
His voice sounded exceptionally hoarse.
“I need a true rival to sharpen my sword.”
“The Battle Maniac from the Ning clan and Wu Huang from the Great Wu Empire should be good opponents, right?”
The black sword on his back trembled slightly, as if itching to get it on with the other elites of the same generation.
...
The Thousand Beast Empire.
Roar!
A deafening roar echoed within the city. The entire city watched as an enormous winged beast flapped its titanic wings and rose into the air.
A young lady was seated in a kneeling position atop the winged beast’s back. She had a head full of long green hair and eyes filled with liveliness, an overall bizarre appearance.
A small ice-blue bird hopped on her soft shoulders as it chirped. Its eyes seemed to be filled with an endless frost.
“Hehe, little frost, we can finally go out and play!”
The young lady stroked the small bird, her tiny face blooming with excitement.
“I heard that the Saint Remains Domain is going to be really fun this time and there’s going to be many formidable characters there. Hehe, not a single one of our peers here in the Thousand Beast Empire has been able to beat us in a fight. I hope that those fellows will not be too boring.”
“Onwards!”
With a loud shout from the young lady, the winged beast roared. Its wings beating powerfully as its speed rapidly rose, riding the winds into the distance.
...
Boom!
In a certain martial courtyard.
A burst of violent Genesis Qi swept outwards, sending a dozen figures flying while turning the courtyard into a complete mess.
“Haha, all of you are too weak!”
“Meaningless, meaningless. Tell father that I am going to the Saint Remains Domain. Staying here is just too meaningless!”
Only a single figure remained standing within the mess, his thick muscular body akin to a metal tower. His gaze swept across the area, eyes filled with battle lust.
It was as if he was a ferocious ape.
He grinned and let out a hearty laugh, no hesitation whatsoever as he stamped his foot on the ground and his body soared into the sky. Several leaps later, he disappeared.
Everyone in the courtyard breathed a sigh of relief as they watched him leave before bursting into cheers.
“That monster is finally gone…”
“We will no longer be tortured by him.”
“I feel a little sorry for those going to the Saint Remains Domain, it’s pretty much over once that maniac has his sights on you…”
“....”
...
North of the Cangmang Continent, the noble Zouqiu clan.
Outside the dwelling of a certain young lady, a servant girl’s cautious voice sounded, “It’s time miss. The clan leader has sent me to notify you that we may leave.”
Inside the building, a lovely snow-white figure lay under a thin quilt on a soft bed. Even so, the quilt was unable to hide her extremely alluring curves.
Upon hearing the servant girl’s voice, the figure rose from the quilt. The quilt fell, immediately revealing a body as fai
r as lamb fat. Her long hair hung in front of her, covering two heart-poundingly busty mounds.
“Come in.” She raised her head, only to reveal an exceedingly charming little face akin to a little pixie’s, a face that would make one feel a rush of excitement.
The servant girl carefully pushed open the door and walked in. Even though she was also a girl, the erotic sight on the bed caused the servant’s girl gaze to involuntarily sweep across that unreasonable to the extreme figure.
The servant girl quickly started to retrieved some clothes and helped the young lady put them on.
The long black dress that now covered her body made her lovely figure appear even more mesmerising. Slender yet bountiful in all the right places, those curves alone were enough to draw the gaze of everyone in the area.
“Hehe, thank you little Bi. Tell father that I will definitely bring back a groom this time!” The little enchantress beamed as she gave a little peck to the servant girl’s cheek.
The servant girl helplessly reminded, “Miss, clan leader said that you must obtain the greatest gift!”
“What kind of gift can compare to finding a good husband?” The little enchantress winked as she chuckled.
“Alright, I’m off!”
However, she did not tease the girl any further. With a wave of her hand, after images of her figure rapidly appeared and disappeared, disappearing into the distance several breaths later.
The servant girl could not help but praise as she watched her lady’s phantom like movement technique.
“Milady’s movement technique definitely stands at the peak of those from the same generation in the Cangmang Continent.”
...
This was an eerie mountain where white bones piled up like hills, the entire area smothered in an aura of the dead.
Crack.
A sound suddenly rang out from the mountain as a procession of figures lumbered out. Their footsteps were stiff and rigid, skin an unhealthy white and eyes akin to empty holes. At closer inspection, one would realise that there were no signs of life on their bodies.
Almost as if they were dead men.
They carried a huge sedan on their shoulders. The spookily white sedan decorated by ghastly pictures drawn in blood-red gave off a strangely sinister aura.
A chilly wind blew past, lifting the white curtains of the sedan.
A young bloodlessly-pale face appeared under the curtains. His eyes were the color of ash and the aura of death seemed to swirl around him, a sight that would make one shiver all over.
A hundred ghosts carrying a sedan.
The white sedan faded into the distance as an eerily cold voice seemed to echo.
“As the Yama King passes, the living scurry away…”
...
Meanwhile.
Numerous famous geniuses from all across the entire Cangmang Continent had begun to move. Their target was one and the same; every gaze pointed towards the Saint Remains Domain at the center of the continent.
As a result, countless gazes from the entire Cangman Continent converged to this place.
Everyone wanted to know how amazing it would be when the numerous prided geniuses and elites of the younger generation clashed.
The Saint Remains Domain had already become the focus of the entire continent.
A storm was gathering, and the hidden dragons will naturally begin to reveal themselves.
Chapter 117 Magical Python Scales
Cangmang Continent.
Deep within the mountains in the southwest region.
Roar!
The deafening roar of a giant creature echoed in the mountain forests. The creature had the appearance of a lion which was covered in silver scales, while cackling lightning danced on the surface of its body.
It was a grade 2 Genesis Beast, the Rushing Thunder Beast.
A beast like this would usually be avoided by even advance Qi Nourishing stage practitioners.
However, a human figure was currently dashing towards the Rushing Thunder Beast at this very moment. Dark gold Genesis Qi exploded from the surface of the figure’s body as a ferocious without equal punch was thrown, its power so great that even the ground below the figure’s feet cracked open.
Roar!
The Rushing Thunder Beast roared as lightning gathered on its head. In the next instant, it transformed into a bolt of lightning and clashed with the human figure.
Boom!
Shockwaves devastated the surrounding area as layer after layer of the ground below their feet was peeled away.
The Rushing Thunder Beast let out a cry of anguish as its enormous body was launched into the air. Its head had been shattered, killed on the spot in a single blow.
The figure landed on the Rushing Thunder Beast corpse, fished out the Beast Spirit Crystal and retrieved the mottled black brush hanging on his waist. The brush hairs swept forth, swallowing the Beast Spirit.
This human figure was naturally Zhou Yuan whom had left the Great Zhou Empire.
It had been two whole months since he left the Great Zhou Empire. Over these two months, Yaoyao and him had passed through numerous regions. The majority of the routes they had chosen to take however were through deep mountains and dense forests, because only in such places would one be able to encounter many Genesis Beasts for training purposes.
Numerous prided geniuses would soon gather at the Saint Remains Domain, and he needed to make use of every single second to raise his strength. Only then would his chances of becoming the final victor be a little bit higher.
The past two months of bitter training had allowed him to progress substantially. There were already faint indications of breaking through to the advance Qi Nourishing stage.
“Can’t believe that a grade 2 Rushing Thunder Beast can’t even survive my full power punch.” Zhou Yuan mumbled to himself, a little proud of his achievement. After all, even ordinary Qi Nourishing stage experts did not dare to face such a beast.
“Is this really worth being happy about?” A clear voice rang out from the side.
Yaoyao carried Tuntun in her arms as she rolled her eyes at Zhou Yuan and said in a slightly miffed manner, “Two entire months of training and you haven’t even managed to bring out the wonders of the Omni Python Qi, what’s there to be pleased about?”
“Urgh…”
Zhou Yuan was taken aback.
Yaoyao helplessly shook her head. “The Omni Python Qi is a grade 5 Genesis Qi and originates from the Ancestral Dragon Scripture. Do you really believe that it is only a little more powerful and domineering than ordinary Genesis Qi?”
Zhou Yuan let out an awkward laugh before he sincerely said, “Please guide me big sis Yaoyao!”
“Go prepare dinner for Tuntun first.” Yaoyao merely chuckled softly while Tuntun released a bark of approval.
Zhou Yuan was helpless. All he could do was hoist the Rushing Thunder Beast on his shoulders and return to their camp where he set up a frame over the fire and began roasting the meat. Such chores had been handled by him for the past two months. Thus, his movements were now smooth and practiced.
Only when the fragrance of roasted meat gradually emerge did Yaoyao finally place a fair hand on her cheek, a small smile on her lips as she asked, “Have you felt any changes in the Omni Python Qi recently?”
Zhou Yuan fell into thought before giving a little shake of his head.
The corners of Yaoyao’s red lips curved downwards. “Tuntun, give it to him.”
Upon hearing this, Tuntun excitedly stood up from her arms, its eyes shining as it stared at Zhou Yuan.
“Eh? Wait!” Zhou Yuan jumped back a little in fear.
Swish!
However, Tuntun ignored him. Its tiny body flashed and appeared in front of Zhou Yuan as a paw was sent swatting over.
Zhou Yuan hurriedly lifted his arms as dark gold Genesis Qi whizzed out.
Thud!
Tuntun’s tiny paw landed and Zhou Yuan was instantly blown away as if struck by a heavy blow. H
e crashed into a giant tree, intense pain jerking through his arms.
Zhou Yuan hissed through gnashed teeth, “You little bastard, biting the hand that feeds you! Don’t even think about having any more meals in future!”
Yaoyao let out a soft laugh. “Did you feel the tiny change in the Genesis Qi inside your body at the instant of impact?”
Zhou Yuan viciously glared at Tuntun, before beginning to mutter to himself, somewhat hesitant as he replied, “It seems as if the Omni Python Qi wanted to fuse into my flesh and blood when I was hit.”
The truth was that signs of this phenomenon had already been detected by Zhou Yuan. The only reason why it had been overlooked because it was far too faint.
Yaoyao slowly said, “Grasp that feeling and allow nature to take its course.”
“Tuntun.” Yaoyao called out once again.
Tuntun barked in response and looked towards Zhou Yuan. However, it seemed to hesitate as if Zhou Yuan’s threat of not giving it any food earlier had actually worked.
“Bring it.” Said a peeved Zhou Yuan when he saw this.
Swish!
Tutun barked excitedly and shot forward once again, extraordinary power within its tiny paw as it was sent swatting towards Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan’s expression grew solemn. This time however, the instant Tuntun’s little paw arrived, he concentrated on feeling the minute change in the Genesis Qi within his body. Sure enough, he discovered that some Genesis Qi was automatically fusing into the flesh and blood of his arms.
However, Zhou Yuan’s body seemed to put up some resistance, preventing the Genesis Qi from fusing into it.
Zhou Yuan seemed to comprehend something, and immediately fully relaxed his body with a thought. The resistance faded along with this action and strands of Omni Python Qi began to merge into his arms.
The instant this happened, Zhou Yuan saw a faint green glow emerge on his arms. Next, he watched in astonishment as green scales began to grow.
The green scales had a hidden luster like the scales of a python.
Thump!
Tuntun’s paw swung downwards and Zhou Yuan was blown a dozen steps back again. However, he did not feel as much pain from his arms this time. It was clear that the majority of the force had been dispersed by the scales that had appeared on his arms.
