BXBX NOVEL Chapter 66: Just Death
Dragons! They were supposed to be mythical creatures, but they were here in Nanzhou.
The demonic beasts in the mountain ranges of Nanzhou quivered in fear under the combined bloodline suppression that the dragons were emitting as they flew past the mountain ranges of Nanzhou to arrive at the Ancient Desolate City.
Everyone was paralyzed with fear at the terrifying sight.
A dragon bellowed, “Where is the Ye Clan?!”
The ground’s voice was like thunder, eliciting an earthquake throughout the city.
Ye Xiao walked out into the garden and looked up at the dragons in the sky. He was thoroughly shocked. The dragon at the helm looked at Ye Xiao and asked, “Are you Ye Xiao?”
Ye Xiao nodded. “Yes.”
Roaaar!
Boom!
The walls of Ancient Desolate City collapsed at the terrifying roar. The denizens of Ancient Desolate City ran out of their houses in terror.
Ye Xiao swept his gaze at the elders and disciples of the Ye Clan standing behind him.
The dragon at the helm was infuriated. If the Guanxuan Academy weren’t protecting Ancient Desolate City, he would have long conducted a massacre and killed everyone in the city.
However, he didn’t dare to annihilate the denizens of the city for fear of angering the Guanxuan Guards. The True Dragon Clan would be in huge trouble if the Guanxuan Guards decided to get involved.
Therefore, the dragon at the helm suppressed his killing intent. He transformed into a middle-aged man and waved his sleeve. A powerful force enveloped Ye Xiao and the entire Ye Clan before pulling them up into the sky.
The members of the Ye Clan despaired as they helplessly flew into the sky.
Swish!
A whistling sound echoed, eliciting a change in the middle-aged man’s expression.
“That’s Ye Guan! Hurry up and retreat!” he shouted before turning around to leave with the entire Ye Clan in tow.
Ao Tian wasn’t here. Wouldn’t he become a laughingstock if the Clan Leader of the True Dragon Clan were to come here and take the entire Ye Clan hostage? After all, The Ye Clan wasn’t even a powerful organization in Nanzhou, and they were only ants on the Zhongtu Divine Continent.
The middle-aged man at the helm was horrified.
He didn’t expect that Ye Guan would personally come here to save the Ye Clan. He was afraid of Ye Guan because the latter could easily shatter the powerful defenses of the True Dragon Clan’s True Dragons.
The True Dragons of the True Dragon clan were famous for their defenses, but their defenses were like pieces of paper against Ye Guan.
Therefore, the middle-aged man at the helm decided to retreat immediately. Ye Guan had killed a few dragons in just one sword move, and the middle-aged man at the helm wasn’t confident that his defenses could withstand Ye Guan’s attacks.
However, Ye Guan was too fast, and he was already behind the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man revealed a sinister look and shouted, “Block him!”
Two dragons turned into a golden beam of light that shot toward Ye Guan.
Ye Guan’s eyes flashed with killing intent, and he lashed out with his leg in response.
Boom!
A rift in space opened, and a ray of sword light slashed through one of the dragons.
“Ahh!” The dragon cried miserably as it was split in half before falling to the ground.
Ye Guan flipped his palm open, and the Path Sword returned to his hands. He was about to make a move, but a golden beam of light suddenly struck the other dragon.
Bam!
The other dragon trembled violently before it exploded into a bloody mist.
Ye Guan turned to his right and froze. Ye Qing!
Ye Qing wordlessly looked at Ye Guan.
Ye Guan stared up ahead and saw that the other dragons had already disappeared.
Ye Guan’s expression turned ugly, and his eyes were dyed with killing intent. Ye Qing’s face was distorted in fury as well.
“Brother Ye Qing, wait for me at home,” said Ye Guan before hopping onto his sword and disappearing into the horizon.
Moments later, he had to stop flying because Ye Qing was already next to him.
Their gazes met in mid-air, and Ye Qing shattered the ice by asking, “Are you going to the True Dragon Clan?”
Ye Guan nodded and growled, “Our clan members were taken away because of me.”
Ye Qing sounded solemn as he said, “I will go with you.”
Ye Guan had to do a double take at Ye Qing. “They’re the True Dragon Clan.”
“So what?”
Ye Guan went silent at that. After a while, he said, “The Ye Clan and I may never come back home. You should stay here. In the future, you can—”
Ye Qing interrupted by shaking his head.
“So what if I become strong enough to annihilate the True Dragon Clan in the future if you’re already dead?” he said.
Ye Guan stared deeply at Ye Qing before nodding. “You have a point. All right, let’s go!”
Ye Guan hopped onto his sword once more and disappeared into the horizon.
A golden light enveloped Ye Qing’s feet. He jumped into the air and disappeared into the horizon as well.
…
Ye Guan and Ye Qing soon arrived at the Immortal Treasures Pavilion and asked to use the teleportation array of the Immortal Treasures Pavilion to enter the True Dragon World.
Ye Guan stopped just outside the teleportation array and opened his palm, revealing a tiny pagoda. Ye Guan stared at the tiny pagoda in his hand and said, “I think you should leave, Master Pagoda.”
Little Pagoda asked, “What do you mean?”
Ye Guan glanced at the teleportation array before saying, “I don’t think I’ll make it out this time. I don’t want you to die with me.”
Little Pagoda said, “Cultivate diligently for a year and visit the True Dragon Clan afterward. None of them will be your match by then. You’ll die fighting them with your current cultivation base.”
Ye Guan shook his head lightly and said, “I have a conscience, Master Pagoda. I will never be at peace if I were to abandon the Ye Clan and let them die. So what if I become invincible? It’ll be meaningless without peace of mind.”
Ye Guan bowed toward the tiny pagoda and said, “Master Pagoda, I am extremely grateful for what you have done for me so far. I’m sorry that I cannot repay you in this lifetime. I will strive to make it up to you in my next life.”
With that, Ye Guan placed the tiny pagoda on the ground before walking into the teleportation array.
Ye Qing made a sidelong glance at the tiny pagoda before chasing after Ye Guan.
Little Pagoda was silent for quite a while before he muttered, “That lad…”
…
Ye Guan and Ye Qing entered the True Dragon World and went to look for Ao Tian.
Ao Tian swept his gaze across Ye Guan and Ye Qing.
“I’m surprised. I didn’t expect you to come here. You two have guts!”
However, Ye Guan was staring at something behind Ao Tian in disbelief.
“Master Pagoda?” he muttered.
Ao Tian frowned and turned around. His pupils immediately constricted, and a golden light sprung up to protect him.
Crack!
The other dragons were astonished to see Ao Tian’s barrier shatter almost immediately upon colliding with a sword. The sword seemed like it hadn’t lost any strength as it flew toward Ao Tian’s heart.
However, Ao Tian transformed into his true body before the sword pierced his heart.
Bam!
A powerful shockwave spread in all directions, sending Ye Guan and Ye Qing flying at least a hundred meters away.
Swish!
A sword landed in Ye Guan’s palm.
A long gash was on Ao Tian’s belly as he hovered in the sky.
The faces of the other dragons’ turned ugly, and they stared at Ye Guan as if they were looking at a monster.
He shattered Ao Tian’s defenses?
Ao Tian wasn’t an Imperial-rank dragon, but he was still within the top three in the defenses department throughout the Zhongtu Divine Continent. In other words, he was a terrifying existence to fight.
Ao Tian’s defenses were sturdier than most cultivators, but a Space Shattering Realm young man broke through Ao Tian’s defenses as if he were taking candy from a baby. It was an absurd sight to behold.
Meanwhile, Ye Guan could only sigh. He wanted to kill Ao Tian in one blow. He didn’t expect Ao Tian to transform at the crucial moment and take the blow with his belly rather than his heart.
Ao Tian was injured, but he wasn’t severely injured.
What a pity! Ye Guan sighed once more.
Ao Tian glared at Ye Guan while reeling in shock at the close shave just now. Aside from shock, his heart was also gripped with fear.
Ye Guan had almost killed him earlier, and he was just a Space Shattering Realm cultivator.
He’ll definitely become invincible if he’s allowed to grow! Ao Tian’s eyes flashed with killing intent. I can’t let Ye Guan live to see another day!
The True Dragon Clan would be in huge trouble if Ye Guan survived this ordeal.
Ao Tian glared murderously at Ye Guan before turning to look at the other dragons and shouting, “Close the world!”
The other dragons immediately closed the True Dragon World.
They obviously didn’t want to let Ye Guan and Ye Qing escape.
The powerful cultivators of the True Dragon Clan surrounded Ye Guan and Ye Qing.
Ye Guan remained calm as he gripped his Path Sword tightly. He could only fight for his life here. Ye Qing glared at Clan Leader Ao Tian with his hands clenched tightly.
Ao Tian roared, “Kill them!”
The dragons immediately rushed toward Ye Guan and Ye Qing.
Ye Guan called out, “Brother Ye Qing, I want you to choose between Ao Tian and the group of dragons!”
“I honestly don’t want to choose either of them,” said Ye Qing.
“Then, I’ll choose for you,” said Ye Guan. “You fight the bigger group, I’ll fight Ao Tian!”
With that, Ye Guan turned into a ray of light that shot toward Ao Tian.
Ye Qing directed his murderous gaze at the other dragons.
He stomped with his right foot.
Boom!
The ground was torn apart as Ye Qing’s Great Earth Force forced the dragons to back off.
The dragons were stunned at the sight.
The Great Earth Law Imprint appeared on Ye Qing’s glabella, and a terrifying amount of Great Earth Force gathered beneath him.
Ye Qing glared coldly at the dragons. “Want to kill my Ye Clan? Over my dead body!”
He stomped with his right foot once again.
Boom!
The ground collapsed as Ye Qing’s Great Earth Force emerged from the ground and shot toward the sky to part the clouds.
They were outnumbered but unafraid. It was just death, nothing serious!
