Clang! Above the sky, two massive silhouettes, akin to demonic gods, collided with each other. The sound of the impact was like the clash of giant metals, accompanied by a terrifying gust of wind that swept across the sky, sending the nearby combatants from both sides flying and causing their inner energy to surge wildly. As the storm of power raged, the golden-giant form of Yan Xiao also trembled, taking a step back. Similarly, the mighty man on the opposing side, the Profound Demon, retreated several steps, each step causing the space beneath him to crumble into dark voids. “You brat, you do have some ability!” The Profound Demon’s face flashed with surprise. Despite the hard collision, he didn’t gain any advantage. He looked at Yan Xiao, who was not far away, with a grave expression and sneered. Yan Xiao’s gaze swept over the Profound Demon, his brows furrowing slightly. The strength of the Three Dragon Islands was indeed formidable, commanding such powerful underlings. If not for his Vajra Glass Body and the reinforced flesh tempered by countless celestial treasures and dragon-phoenix essence blood, he wouldn’t have gained the upper hand in the physical confrontation. “Brat, who are you? State your name! The affairs of the Void Ancient Dragons aren’t something an ordinary person can meddle with!” The Profound Demon glared at Yan Xiao and roared. Paying no heed to the challenge, Yan Xiao’s gaze suddenly turned towards the northwest. There, two figures moved like lightning, appearing beside the Profound Demon in a few flashes. Simultaneously, a cold voice echoed.
“Profound Demon, stop wasting time with him. Capture him now! The three Dragon Kings will soon claim victory, and there must be no room for error during this time!” The two figures beside the Profound Demon were old men clad in green and yellow robes. They appeared extremely aged, but a chilling intent swirled in their eyes, indicating they were not to be trifled with. Yan Xiao observed the two elders with a heavy gaze. In his perception, their strength surpassed that of the Profound Demon, clearly making them peak Dou Sages who had reached the midpoint of the two-star level. “Hmph, do you Three Dragon Islands think my Eastern Dragon Island lacks capable people?” Soon after these two elders appeared, an angry shout erupted from the Dragon Hall. A rippling in the air was felt, and two white-haired, fierce-eyed elders materialized by Yan Xiao’s side.
“Yan Xiao, these are our Eastern Dragon Island’s Head Elder and Second Elder…” Zhu Li followed closely behind, explaining to Yan Xiao. “Greetings, two elders.” Hearing this, Yan Xiao smiled and bowed respectfully to the stern-faced elders. “No need for such formalities, Yan Xiao. You are the friend of His Majesty, and naturally, you are a distinguished guest of our Eastern Dragon Island. Your timely assistance is a kindness we will never forget.” The elder holding a dragon-headed cane looked at Yan Xiao, a smile slowly forming on his face. His tone was quite cordial. “The green-robed one is the Head Elder of the Western Dragon Island, known as Chumo, a mid-level two-star Dou Sage. The yellow-robed elder is the Head Elder of the Southern Dragon Island, named Rieshan, whose strength is comparable to Chumo.” Zhu Li whispered to Yan Xiao. “Together with the Profound Demon, they are the highest leaders of the Three Dragon Islands, excluding the three Dragon Kings. They are in charge of the battle against the Eastern Dragon Island.” Yan Xiao nodded slightly, inwardly impressed. Three two-star Dou Sages—this lineup wasn’t something common forces could muster. The Void Ancient Dragons were indeed the mightiest tribe among the Magical Beasts, even in their current divided state. If they were unified, they would stand strong against even the Soul Clan and the Ancient Clan. “Old Green Mountain, you still resist? You know that further resistance will only exhaust the Eastern Dragon Island’s resources.” The green-robed Head Elder of the Western Dragon Island sneered at the elder with the dragon cane. “Even if we lose every last soldier, we won’t let you rest easy, you traitors who have forgotten our clan rules,” the elderly Green Mountain said calmly. “Once the three Dragon Kings deal with your Dragon Emperor, we’ll see if you can still be so bold!” The Head Elder, Chumo, laughed and added, “Our reinforcements from the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan should arrive soon. We’ll see then how stubborn you can be.”
“Shameless! The Void Ancient Dragons and the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan are eternal enemies. For you to forget such a great grudge, you are unworthy of being part of the Void Ancient Dragons. The old Dragon Emperor cultivated you well, and yet your conscience has been eaten by dogs!” The Second Elder of the Eastern Dragon Island spat through gritted teeth. Hearing the mention of the old Dragon Emperor, the faces of the Profound Demon and the others grew slightly uneasy. After a moment, they replied, “The old Dragon Emperor has been missing for thousands of years. As for the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, we will deal with them after unifying the Void Ancient Dragons. The division of the clan has lasted too long; it must be unified. You stand in the way of unification.” “Ridiculous! The Dragon Emperor is of the true royal bloodline. The three Dragon Kings are merely cadet branches daring to claim unity. They divided the tribe for their own selfish gains!” The Head Elder barked. Listening to the heated exchange, Yan Xiao understood that the Void Ancient Dragons all desired unity but differed in their ideals, leading to the outbreak of the war. “You don’t need to wait for the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan. On the way here, I ran into them and sent them back…” Not caring about the ideological differences, Yan Xiao grasped the image of Xian Feng, the captured member of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, in his hand. “What?” Hearing Yan Xiao’s words, both sides were stunned. They turned and indeed saw Xian Feng in a sealed state. “Damned wretch, daring to sabotage our three islands’ plan!” The Profound Demon glared at Yan Xiao, roaring, “Enough talk. Let’s flatten the Dragon Hall.” “Agreed.” The Head Elders of the Southwest Islands nodded, emitting a dragon roar each. Soon, nearly a hundred flashes of light appeared, suspending in the air above the Dragon Hall. The group, led by around ten individuals, each radiated horrifying auras, reaching the level of half-sages. The rest were mostly at the rank of five-star Battle Sects. Roaring, the Eastern Dragon Island’s Dragon Hall unleashed more dragon cries. As the sound of wind whistling filled the air, numerous figures emerged, staring furiously at the large group. Their inner energies surged rapidly. As all the combatants from both sides appeared, the tension in the air became intense. Boom. During the stalemate, a loud energy explosion echoed from the distant void, instantly breaking the deadlock. Intense auras soared into the sky!
“Kill!” With the low, thunderous roar, the strong from both sides launched themselves like tigers descending the mountain. Chaos quickly engulfed the sky, and a ferocious battle ensued. Bang, bang, bang. The battle was a blur of movement. Though the Three Dragon Islands had more fighters, swallowing the Eastern Dragon Island’s force was no simple task. Thus, once the fight began, it quickly devolved into a stalemate.
With a punch, Yan Xiao sent a peak Battle Sect reeling. Moving swiftly, he grabbed the man’s arm and swung him, horrified, at a half-sage. The terrifying force caused the Battle Sect’s arm to shatter and the half-sage to fly backward, spewing blood. After dealing with the half-sage, Yan Xiao looked up at the distant battle, where the real decisive struggle lay. The outcome there would determine the war’s winner. Seeing the situation within the battlefield, Yan Xiao’s heart sank. Zi Yan was visibly weakening, being pushed back by the combined efforts of the three Dragon Kings. This was clearly noticed by the Three Islands’ warriors, who were delaying the Eastern Dragon Island’s reinforcements. “Two Elders, Lord Demonic Night will assist you against the Profound Demon and the others. I must help Zi Yan!” Taking a deep breath, Yan Xiao’s eyes sharpened. Emitting a sharp cry, a pair of gigantic blue and red bone wings unfurled behind him. “Stop him!” The Profound Demon and his companions were alarmed by Yan Xiao’s actions. But before they could react, Lord Demonic Night and the Head and Second Elders of the Eastern Dragon Island intercepted them. Seizing the chance, Yan Xiao’s bone wings flapped, generating a thunderous sound. His figure shot out like lightning, heading towards the external battle circle.
“Three Dragon Kings, let’s see just how terrifying you can be!”
