The Chief Patriarch of the Feather Race did not go outside the Valley. Instead, together with the other three patriarchs and the princes, she flew to the Mountain of Wings at the north.
It was a towering mountain. Standing at the top, people could see to an area with a radius of 30 miles. Undoubtedly, the peak of the mountain was a proper choice when they needed to control the overall situation.
At the peak of the mountain was a huge statue. It was a lady that resembled the appearances of the Feather Race. The lady had wings and wore an emerald green armor. She possessed surpassing beauty, added by an unworldly touch. One look at her from a distance would make people her worshipers. They would never violate her.
Under the statue was a huge altar, to which side stood a large castle. In front of the castle stood Chief Patriarch and the others who were gazing to the south.
“Boom, boom, boom~”
They heard some noises coming from afar. The noise rang on their hearts just like battle drums. Many warriors outside the valley were already scared. With such a fame, Lu Li had already imposed stress on Feather Race before he presented himself.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The noise of the footsteps was becoming heavier and heavier, but they were not fast. The sound would only come twice every one breath, which was slow. Lu Li seemed to be extra cautious. Or, maybe he was slowing down on purpose to bring pressure to the Feather Race.
“What the hell is that?”
“Why are the footsteps so heavy? Is it me or is the ground shaking?”
“It is not you and the ground is shaking. Some gigantic beast is coming.”
“We are high in the sky, so we must be able to see three miles, right? The footsteps are far away, and they are already intimidating. Is the beast a legendary Beast God or something?”
The average Feather Race warriors were not informed about the Dragon Demon, which was ordered by the high-level officials on purpose to avoid morale droppings. Lu Li alone was enough to frighten the Feather Race warriors. If they knew about the Dragon Demon, they would have run away before the battle started.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The footsteps never stopped. What shocked the Feather Race warriors was that… they had been hearing the footsteps for the time for half an incense stick to burn and yet they had not seen the Dragon Demon. But the ground was shaking more violently.
The beast was over three miles away and it had caused the ground to shake here. What would be the size of that beast? That was beyond the imagination of many Feather Race warriors. Some timid ones were already prepared to escape.
“What in the name of God of Wings is that—”
Someone shouted in surprise. Many Feather Race warriors who were already tense looked up. Several glances after, they were stunned.
In the distance over the horizon, a fire-red beast was partly hidden and partly visible. If the Feather Race warriors did not know that this land was a plain, they would mistakenly think the beast was an actual mountain.
A surge of evil spirit spread across from the distance. Many Feather Race warriors already felt suffocated when they could not even see the Dragon Demon clearly yet. They felt they were nothing, but flies compared to the Dragon Demon, so small and petty.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The Dragon Demon was at a moderate speed, one step at a time. Every time it stomped on the ground, there would be a pit. If there were rocks nearby, the ground would crack. Sometimes, the Dragon Demon would spread its wings, covering up the sky around it.
The Dragon Beast’s eyes had no emotions. Many Feather Race warriors felt chilly. The Dragon Beast’s white teeth could tear apart all the enemies. Many Feather Race warriors found it hard to stand the Dragon Demon’s strong power. They were about to fall from the sky.
“Look, someone is on the head of the beast!”
Another Feather Race warrior screamed in surprise. Hearing his words, many lifted their heads toward the Dragon Demon. What they saw astonished them.
On the head of the Dragon Demon stood a man in a cyan robe which was plain, not elegant. He did not hold any handsome weapons as a way to show off. He just stood on the head of the Dragon Demon quietly.
He looked young. He might not be as good looking as the Feather Race, but he was handsome in his own way. His charm was not to be described with words. His white hair was combed to the back of his head, dancing in the wind.
Without a question!
Lu Li was charming. He was composed, even when faced with towering pressure. Every now and then, he would be brimming with pride. Those qualities gave him more glory.
Without any unique features, no matter how pretty a girl was, she was nothing other than an eye candy. It was the same with men. A man could be handsome but with no characters, he would merely be regarded as a toy boy.
Young as Lu Li was, he had experienced bullying, coffin pulling, he was hunted down, and he had killed many. Quite a number of people worked for him. He went through violent difficulties but also tasted splendor, glory and wealth. He had earned the ability to lead the Great Land and to pride himself above heroes in the world.
This was not specific to Lu Li. With such an experience, anyone’s charm would have changed.
Lu Renhuang was thought to be an unsheathed sword, showing his abilities to the fullest extent and could not be held back. Lu Li was more like a sword that had just been used. He seemed gentle, but his edge was not to be ignored. He might appear to be mile. However, in the depth of his heart, he was wilder and more violent that Lu Renhuang.
Clothes make a man, just as a saddle makes a horse.
Lu Li was not relying on clothes, though. He stood on the head of the Dragon Demon, a more impressive appearance.
To have the views of a giant, the easiest way one might adopt was to stand on the shoulders of a giant. Lu Li was standing on the head of a giant!
The powers of the Dragon Demon terrified the Feather Race warriors. Lu Li standing on the Dragon Demon’s head meant that he was even more powerful, and he was the master. The Dragon Demon had surrendered to him. Why else would such a beast tolerate anyone to stand on its head?
Silence!
Outside the Valley of Feather gathered an army of ten million, including half of the Feather Race’s most powerfuls. They were everywhere in the wild, crowded together.
However—
The army and so many powerfuls of the Feather Race felt stifled just because of this one beast and one man. To them, Lu Li was no longer an individual human being, but a god that could never be stopped. Not even the entire army could hold back this beast and human being.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The Dragon Demon was coming closer and closer. Its evil spirit spilled over. It was faced with an army of ten million and yet the Dragon Demon was more overwhelming.
“No, no, it cannot…”
The three princes stared at the Dragon Demon and Lu Li as they came closer. Their arrogance and ignorance had vanished. In their place was fear, fear from the depth of their souls.
“Phew, phew~”
The only one who remained calm was the Chief Patriarch of the Feather Race. She raised her head, looked at the mountain-tall Dragon Demon and forced a bitter smile.
She continued to look up until she saw Lu Li. She glared at him for a long time. Eventually, she said, “Human leader, the chosen one. I, Nishang, am not disappointed to see you!” That was the only thing she stated.
