Chapter 120 Long Guang Vs Zhao Dilao (I)
IN THE END, Yang Lujia managed to subdue the woman, who was the so-called wife of Zhang Wei. He then ordered her to get back and tell her father about the truth that the other party was an expert and that they could not defeat him even with himself alone against their full force.
After he returned to the airships, he had already told everyone to settle down near the Death Glacial Waters and wait for the opportunity to ascend together. He then gathered them all together with his qi wrapped around each of them until they almost reached the center core of the Death Glacial Waters.
Seeing how the avalanches and the snow hails that had killed several cultivators who were even God Emperors were ineffective against them, they were all gasping in shock. Such discovery was totally unprecedented to them. No, it wasn’t just some sort of discovery. It was an ability that no one thought would be possible for a human to do. With as many as them, it was almost impossible.
“I really don’t think I should not tell you, but Zhang Wei, the Headmaster of Guile Magus Academy had been plotted against by his own wife who he thought was killed during the war between Da Sishen and the Underworld Prison. His wife was coincidentally the saintess of the Core Subduing Clan who is specialized in controlling beasts and other living things.
“Afterward, before her so-called death, she gave Zhang Wei an art made for the Core Subduing Clan. In the end, he comprehended it and used it to control the Death Hydra. He was so stupid that he had not gotten the hint of him being able to control the Death Hydra because she purposefully and meaningfully gave him their art just like that. It was not for no reason..
“And this dark passage right here at the center core of the Death Glacial Waters was the way to go to the Underworld Prison. Today, I want you all to witness something before we go to ascend to a higher realm. By doing so, you shall become at ease as you leave, because I will personally close this passage now. By then, no wars between Da Sishen and the Underworld Prison shall ever commence again.”
GASP!
“You can close a spatial passage like that? How powerful are you?” Xia Zhiguang mumbled as he thought that the young man they once considered to be only slightly weaker than them was actually multiple times stronger than they were.
When Yang Lujia heard this question, he just smiled. “When you accompany me, the more you will know of the power I possess. Even I do not know the extent of power I can yield.” He then looked at some of the looks of other people. They were obviously quite hesitant to leave Da Sishen with Yang Lujia.
Hence, Yang Lujia told them, “I know your attachments to Da Sishen and the people who are living with it. However, no matter how powerful I am, I cannot interfere with the natural process. Even immortals were just named immortals; it’s just that they have longer lifespans than others. Those who died earlier would think they were immortals because they died before they did. Hence, everything has an end. We cannot start without expecting an ending.
“If it was truly so, then everything would have to restart in order for the world to work out. If several people don’t have to die, the capacity of the world to accommodate all of them would be compromised, leading to a shortage of food, resources, and more births.”
All of them kept their mouth shut after hearing the explanation from Yang Lujia. After all, what he said was the truth and these were the things they noticed through the years that they lived within Da Sishen.
“I’ll follow you!” a man from under Bai Qian firmly said, bowing his body forward with his clenched fist on his chest.
“I’ll also follow you, sir!” another man bellowed.
Then everyone followed suit. Only Xia Zhiguang and some distinguished people like his sons and daughter or the people who had almost the same status as him did not bow down to Yang Lujia. After all, even before this happened, they had already pledged their loyalty to Yang Lujia.
“As you wish,” Yang Lujia muttered as he flew to the sky, still tinted with blood. “For now, stay inside your airships.”
He waved his hand and manually fetched them to their respective airships. The qi around these people was as though alive for it was able to move their bodies, even after he disappeared.
When Yang Lujia reappeared, he had already caught up in the fight between Zhao Dilao and his second disciple. Both of them had transformed into their original forms.
“That glowing thing inside Zhao Dilao should be beneficial to Fortuniel,” he thought. “It was the same as that thing from Lin Fan’s body as well.”
“Disgusting,” Long Guang taunted and ferociously threw an attack at his opponent with deafening roars.
His body was dominated by the tint of crimson. Attached on his back was a pair of wings with a belly of a clam cornered by his four legs. And as though this wasn’t ferocious enough, his eyes resembled a demon with two stag-like horns on top of his head; the soles of his feet mirroring a tiger’s and claws of an eagle.
On the other hand, the silvery color of Zhao Dilao’s fur did not lose to Long Guang’s bright crimson body. In fact, he was more elegant and fancy to look at compared to the latter. The difference in size was just too big that Long Guang could, at any time, trample Zhao Dilao with a stomp of his feet.
“I am indeed smaller than you as though comparing an ant to a dragon like you. But do you think a dragon could intentionally capture or kill a fast-moving ant?” Zhao Dilao mocked as he increased his speed by running around in circles.
When Long Guang noticed his plan, the little dragon just scoffed and gripped the ground with his sharp claws. “Do you really think I couldn’t catch up to your speed? If there was one person I would not be able to defeat in my life in terms of anything, it would be my senior brother and my master. Other than them, no one could…”
With that, he disappeared from his place and unbelievably followed Zhao Dilao’s tracks which made the latter run faster in panic.
Although he was of the Echinemon Race, he did not feel any close attachment to the race at all. Besides, he had already experienced firsthand the death of his father which was fake. Seeing it the second time didn’t hurt him much anymore.
In fact, his will to live had been overflowing since they were captured by Yang Lujia. As he was running from Long Guang, his thoughts were also twisting his mind. They became even disordered when he heard Long Guang’s voice behind him.
“Slug, face your death.”
