Xie Lou was a God Realm expert, leading the Diabolic Dragon Clan’s group in this mission. He, Mo Wufeng, and Ming Cigeng could speak on equal grounds because they were the strongest participants in this mission.
He was instantly infuriated when he saw that someone else actually dared to speak such words to him. Xie Lou and the others looked toward the source of the voice. Everyone was curious to see who was brave enough to speak like that to a God Realm expert.
What they saw was a young man charging over with a blood-soaked robe draped over his shoulders and a curved sword in hand. The young man was none other than Xiang Shaoyun. He had remained silent earlier to observe and heal up. Only after putting on his blood-soaked robe and drawing the Yin Mother Sword did he make a move. For Ye Chaomu, he did not mind activating the robe and slaying some dragons.
“A junior from the Imperial Nether Clan?” Xie Lou frowned doubtfully.
“Nineteenth prince, don’t get involved in this,” persuaded Ming Cigeng as he stood before Xiang Shaoyun.
Despite Xiang Shaoyun’s status in the clan, Ming Cigeng wouldn’t allow him to provoke a war between the Diabolic Dragon Clan and Imperial Nether Clan.
“Lord Cigeng, I won’t back off from this. She’s my woman!” said Xiang Shaoyun firmly.
The other devils were confused at his words. Meanwhile, Ye Chaomu was looking at Xiang Shaoyun in an agitated manner. She couldn’t speak, but the shock in her eyes couldn’t be hidden.
“Ming Cigeng, control your people. If you can’t, I won’t mind swallowing him alive,” said Xie Lou with disdain in his eyes. He looked at Mo Wufeng and said, “Mo Wufeng, I thought your clan always prioritizes those with your blood? This girl is obviously a child your clan left behind somewhere. She has a lot of potential for growth. Is she not worth even a stalk of undying grass?”
“A stalk of undying grass for our own is definitely fine, but that young brother over there claims that she’s his woman. Why don’t you have a talk with him first?” said Mo Wufeng. As an accomplished schemer, he shifted the hostility and had Xie Lou clash with Xiang Shaoyun instead.
In truth, he was ready to give up a stalk of undying grass for this woman, but since an Imperial Nether Clan kid was creating trouble for Xie Lou, he didn’t mind standing aside and enjoying the show.
Xie Lou was infuriated. He glared at Xiang Shaoyun, wishing for nothing more than to tear Xiang Shaoyun apart.
“Release her. If you refuse, I don’t mind slaughtering all of you before taking her myself,” said Xiang Shaoyun.
Xiang Shaoyun himself was prejudiced against the Diabolic Dragon Clan. Just the fact that they were the ones launching the invasion against the surface world this time was enough to annoy him. Now that they had even kidnapped Ye Chaomu, his hostility had only increased.
“Nineteenth prince, step back!” Ming Cigeng had not expected Xiang Shaoyun to be so rash. He berated Xiang Shaoyun and tried to seal him, not allowing him to say anything else.
“Nobody can protect you!” said Xie Lou as he narrowed his eyes and clawed at Xiang Shaoyun.
A God Realm expert from the Imperial Nether Clan hurriedly moved and blocked the attack.
“Is the Imperial Nether Clan trying to start a war?” Xie Lou roared.
The other diabolic dragons also rushed over, each of them emitting thick devilish energy as they braced themselves for battle. The Imperial Nether Clan people were alarmed, and they also readied themselves for a fight.
“Xie Lou, the matter between you and the undying devils has no—” said Ming Cigeng. He thought that he had successfully sealed Xiang Shaoyun.
The Imperial Nether Clan wasn’t afraid of the Diabolic Dragon Clan, but they weren’t exactly looking for a war with the dragons either. A war would only break the balance between the three clans.
However, before Ming Cigeng could finish his words, Xiang Shaoyun’s body shook violently and broke the seal around his body. He then rushed toward the diabolic dragon carrying Ye Chaomu on his back.
Xiang Shaoyun moved at his top speed, instantly reaching and slashing the dragon with his Yin Mother Sword. Before the diabolic dragon could even react, his head was sliced off. A fountain of blood spurted out.
After freeing Ye Chaomu, Xiang Shaoyun wrapped his arm around her and asked, “Mumu, are you fine?”
“Big brother, you’re too rash!” said Ye Chaomu. Instead of feeling happy that she had been saved, she was anxious.
“What kind of a man am I if I can’t even protect you?” said Xiang Shaoyun firmly.
“Very well. Tear that kid apart,” said Xie Lou as he was completely infuriated.
At his command, the diabolic dragons nearest to Xiang Shaoyun roared and charged him. Their roars were deafening, and the devilish energy emanating from their bodies was powerful enough to cause their surroundings to shake.
“Bring it on. I just happen to be looking for more blood to feast on,” said Xiang Shaoyun as a look of bloodlust appeared in his eyes. The Yin Mother Sword shone brightly as he swung it at the incoming dragons.
Yin Sword Technique!
He used the Yin Sword Technique without any hesitation, instantly flooding the space before him with energy swords. The energy swords shot forward, cutting space itself into pieces.
Xie Lou’s face sank as he roared, “Don’t get too cocky, kid!”
Xie Lou could sense that Xiang Shaoyun was unleashing a strength to match a God Realm expert. His hand was forced, as he couldn’t watch on as his fellow clan members rushed to their death. At this time, Mo Wufeng interfered and stopped Xie Lou.
“Mo Wufeng, you’re seeking death!” Xie Lou naturally wouldn’t hold back once he made a move. Without hesitation, he clawed at Mo Wufeng.
Mo Wufeng snorted as he said, “You deserve death for daring to kidnap a junior from our clan!”
Mo Wufeng threw both his fists out. It was as though two black stars were shooting forward, crushing through the two massive claw attacks.
“Die!” Xie Lou was angered even more. He started fighting with all his strength.
As for Xiang Shaoyun, he instantly killed two diabolic dragons and seriously injured three others. It was clear for all to see just how terrifyingly strong he was right now. The other diabolic dragons were furious to see their fellow clan members killed.
But with the Undying Devil Clan joining the fight and a God Realm expert obstructing Xie Lou, the Diabolic Dragon Clan members couldn’t do anything to Xiang Shaoyun and Ye Chaomu. A new battle erupted on the battlefield.
“Lord Cigeng, what should we do?” asked an Imperial Nether Clan member.
Ming Cigeng hesitated slightly before saying, “It no longer matters if the nineteenth prince is at fault here. We need to work with the undying devils and defeat the diabolic dragons.”
